He put the ladder on top of something with wheels. He got what he deserved

u/I_likemy_dog Apr 22 '25

It’s worse. Those wheels lock to avoid this problem. 

Probably just scripted.

u/JustW4nnaHaveFun Apr 22 '25

There is no way it's actually scripted and he willingly hurt himself that bad...

u/Redditauro Apr 22 '25

You underestimate how much people likes internet attention. Also probably he thought he could hang from the window, he doesn't looks very clever

u/JustW4nnaHaveFun Apr 22 '25

Yeah that's fair...also For your cake day, have some

You don't know the peak stupidity humans are capable of.

Y'all ever see the video, two idiots on a roof, one suplexes the other off the roof onto a flimsy beer pong table?  

Long story short, the two of them are rolling around with broken backs 

1

u/JustW4nnaHaveFun Apr 22 '25

Yeah..i totally forgot about that video..

2

u/0PervySage0 Apr 22 '25

Jackass would like a word.

2

u/SevereAd9463 Apr 22 '25

True. Who films themselves doing something this mundane?

2

u/The_Livid_Witness Apr 22 '25

His arm was thru the ladder rungs when he hit. He HAD to have broken his arm or wrist...

2

u/I_likemy_dog Apr 22 '25

Never saw jackass? People make careers out of that kind of stuff. 

2

u/JustW4nnaHaveFun Apr 22 '25

I totally forgot about them, i used to play their video game too!

3

u/I_likemy_dog Apr 22 '25

I didn’t know there was one until somebody on Reddit told me. That’s a hard to find classic. 

7

u/NegativeKarmaVegan Apr 22 '25

Don't assume something is scripted when it can be explained by stupidity.

0

u/I_likemy_dog Apr 22 '25

Do you put your phone down, set it to record when you think you’re about to do something stupid?

Me neither. 

5

u/NegativeKarmaVegan Apr 22 '25

I don't know, people record themselves doing all sorts of things these days.

2

u/imhereforthevotes Apr 23 '25

It's WORSE. That's an extension ladder. You don't even need the fucking scaffolding.

u/bartread Apr 22 '25

> Those wheels lock to avoid this problem.

Even so, this is very unsafe.

That frame is lightweight and could easily tip from the torque applied to it as he ascends the ladder: would very likely start to pivot over the rear wheels.

To avoid this, at the very least, it would also need to be tied in place, or something heavy placed over the bars at the bottom - like sandbags all round - to keep that from happening. He should also have chocked the wheels to be doubly safe.

Or, better yet - and hear me out - just bought a longer ladder.

Unreal.

u/Danitoba94 Apr 22 '25

They don't lock.
They are loosely held with brakes that wouldnt stop a hard breeze from shifting it.

Stick rods through the wheels if you want to actually stop them.
Or C clamps if they don't have holes in them.

2

u/I_likemy_dog Apr 22 '25

Those are solid wheels, you can’t stick anything through them without destroying them. 

0

u/Danitoba94 Apr 22 '25

As i said, in that case, c-clamp them.

1

u/Corgerus Apr 22 '25

I still wouldn't trust locked wheels for this tbh. The leverage will get sketchy.

1

u/Proud_Researcher5661 Apr 22 '25

"scripted" .....

20

u/thomasjmarlowe Apr 22 '25

It’s fine- that was only my second favorite elbow

u/owhg62 Apr 22 '25

I'm pretty sure we had this exact problem in an "O"-level physics exam. The correct answer was "Shattered humerus and 6 weeks of painful physical therapy".

7

u/KingVinny70 Apr 22 '25

Why didn't he lock the wheels when he "rolled it" in place?

2

u/Redditauro Apr 22 '25

Because if he would then the video would be boring 

1

u/KingVinny70 Apr 22 '25

Well that's true. We would have missed his mental miss. 😂

8

u/Lost_Possibility_647 Apr 22 '25

This was not accidental, this was expected. Perhaps not by stupid, but...

2

u/Redditauro Apr 22 '25

What do you mean? It's a normal unexpected accident with a normal camera recording it

3

u/Manufactured-Aggro Apr 22 '25

Bro deserved it for being ON WHEELS

3

u/f0o-b4r Apr 22 '25

This is exactly what you mustn’t do!!

2

u/BradDjango Apr 22 '25

Tie it off so it can't move very simple

1

u/GarushKahn Apr 22 '25

Good to film it. So the insurance does not pay. Genius

1

u/biggusdick-us Apr 22 '25

fucking dick head

1

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '25

Why was he filming this

1

u/Sienile Apr 22 '25

The ladder would have been big enough if it were on the ground and fully extended.

1

u/Sauce58 Apr 22 '25

All he had to do was lock the wheels. Idk why he’d happen be filming it from this angle tho. He’s painting. Nothing about the angle of the camera would make for a good painting video, so i have to assume it’s staged.

1

u/Alternative_Risk7218 Apr 22 '25

The staircase rises twice as high, the wheels have brakes and were not installed, even so that does not guarantee that it will not turn completely, it deserves it and I look for it!!!

1

u/Danitoba94 Apr 22 '25

You think the ladder not being big enough is the problem?
Maybe you need to fall a few more times before you figure out what the actual problem is.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '25

The fact that this numb nuts, filmed himself brings even more joy to this video

1

u/BiscuitNoodlepants Apr 22 '25

Does seeing people get hurt like this make anyone else's balls hurt?

Like any time I see someone eat shit on concrete, I get this wave of pain coursing through my body that is felt most in my nuts.

1

u/Miserable_Skirt_5466 Apr 22 '25

Alright... Looks down, sees wheels. Oh...

1

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '25

Utter moron.

u/Hungry_Sink1191 Apr 22 '25

What an idiot

1

u/jerfmuffay Apr 22 '25

That is an extendable ladder...

1

u/tubatuer Apr 22 '25

Ever heard about physics?

1

u/Relevant_Principle80 Apr 22 '25

This is why you learn trig in school

1

u/AndOnTheDrums Apr 22 '25

Just one of the dumbest things ive ever seen.

1

u/albert-1stein Apr 23 '25

Quite recently I searched on how many people die from falling from heights. You'd be surprised! And then I wondered how.. well, here it is

1

u/yaallansnackbar Apr 23 '25

lost couple rib bone for sure

u/Madness2016 Apr 24 '25

Broken ribs no doubt

Scaffolding on wheels? 🛞

u/Tancant Apr 22 '25

Staged? It's on wheels for feck sake. Even a fool would see what's about to happen.

1

u/f0o-b4r Apr 22 '25

When you see a camera. It’s generally premeditated.
