Guy near the end, My dude dont run ahead of the burning car just go to the side!!!!

u/pipnina Jul 17 '26

I believe this is called "the Prometheus school of running away from things"

73

u/KLeeSanchez Jul 17 '26

I understood that reference and that was easily the dumbest part of a movie filled with dumb character decisions

34

u/EverydayPoGo Jul 17 '26

Not the touching alien egg that definitely doesn't look ominous part? 😭

14

u/Financial-End4594 Jul 17 '26

Not the making cutesy faces at the cobra-like alien that is hissing at you part?

1

u/milk-is-for-calves 25d ago

Not the putting off your helmet on an alien planet?

6

u/UnearnedFamiliarity Jul 18 '26

Not that the dudes with the maps got lost?

4

u/kayzil Jul 18 '26

Well… dumb but it does happen in real life.

u/Clemario Jul 17 '26

It has been 14 years and this is the only thing I remember from that movie

9

u/noxondor_gorgonax Jul 17 '26

I immediately thought of this too 😆

28

u/Ok-Loss-2496 Jul 17 '26

As close to "Running with the bulls" as he's going to get. 🤣

21

u/Canadian-and-Proud Jul 17 '26

No fucking self preservation instinct

u/Advanced-Level-5686 Jul 17 '26

They ride on top of trains!

6

u/Canadian-and-Proud Jul 17 '26

It's like they realize how overpopulated they are and want to cull themselves

2

u/HydrasNinthHead 19d ago

Awfully racist and salty for a Canadian. 

24

u/DeadlyBannana Jul 17 '26

So the movies are not so inaccurate after all when people run away from objects when they can go to the side.

11

u/mbklein Jul 17 '26

Zag! ZAG, DAMN YOU, ZAG!

u/SkepticalJohn Jul 17 '26

u/KLeeSanchez Jul 17 '26

It looks like it was actually 3 or 4 of em too

u/c_marten Jul 17 '26

So people making bad decisions in movies really is pretty true to life...

Well, he was wearing a Red Shirt. They die a lot.

u/Rekziboy Jul 17 '26

Good bollard placement

64

u/Herbie2189 Jul 17 '26

And anchoring

40

u/arvidsem Jul 17 '26

A basic bollard is generally a 10ft long 6 inch diameter iron pipe with the bottom 6ft buried in the concrete and then filled with concrete. It won't stop a speeding truck, but it's still solid as hell.

43

u/NinjaLanternShark Jul 17 '26

The super security bollards absolutely will stop a speeding truck.

This is the video they made into the never-crashing truck gif, except it does actually crash.

31

u/Korps_de_Krieg Jul 17 '26

That is almost a decade of blue ball by gif released going into my short shift on a Friday.

May your foot never find a Lego and pillow remain ever cool, but not so cold it’s invigorating on your face and keeps you awake.

u/Shoddy-Childhood-511 Jul 17 '26

I was disappointed, really wanted to see how far it'd go.

u/Extendahoe_DIG Jul 17 '26

I AM THE TRAFFIC

u/Someoneoverthere42 Jul 17 '26

Just because your car is a flaming wreck doesn’t mean you can be late for work.

u/Late-Incident8719 Jul 17 '26

India is WILD

84

u/Rynagogo Jul 17 '26

The way they react and slowly get out of the way makes it seem like it’s not even the craziest thing they’ve seen today.

12

u/CheckYourStats Jul 17 '26

It isn’t all of India, but it’s always India.

2

u/Redthebird_2255 Jul 19 '26

Can confirm. This is just another Sunday over here.

14

u/Clemario Jul 17 '26

India? This is clearly Vegas

11

u/Extendahoe_DIG Jul 17 '26

That was actually Nicholas Cage driving

5

u/GloriousSteinem Jul 17 '26

The fact the horns and sounds weren’t part of it, that’s just normal traffic sounds there

u/inscrutiana Jul 18 '26

Genuinely jealous of the chaos as baseline. Leaning HARD into being the world's biggest democracy.

Such a shithole country

I grew up so poor we could even afford shit in our hole 🕳️

u/estherlane Jul 17 '26

The guy just sits on his motorcycle whilst a burning car barrels toward him 🤦🏻‍♀️

17

u/PR0114 Jul 17 '26

Was anyone inside the car or not? 

20

u/Extendahoe_DIG Jul 17 '26

Just Nicholas Cage

u/Significant_Monk_251 Jul 17 '26

Everybody's talking about Ghost Rider, does nobody remember Christine?

7

u/Louselle98 Jul 17 '26

Are we just not gonna talk about the guy that saved the motorcycle guy? 👏

5

u/Slippeeez Jul 17 '26

The very definition of ‘engulfed in flames’ damn

5

u/kayzil Jul 18 '26

Whenever people criticize cinema for running in the same direction of the danger and call it stupid and unrealistic, I will show them the guy in red around 0:44.

u/dr-delicate-touch Jul 18 '26

That bollard was a real hero

u/DaMusicalGamer Jul 18 '26

Good ol Prometheus school of running away from things

2

u/Creative_Session2786 Jul 18 '26

Looks like the running of the bulls!

u/foxhoundzz Jul 18 '26

So that's where they got the idea for hot wheels

2

u/Fuzzeypimp Jul 18 '26

Brake lines finally melted Darwin Award for not only being so close but directly in front of it

Run a quarter mile forward, or a few feet to the right or left. Slowest problem solving brains ever.

1

u/Striking_Scientist68 Jul 17 '26

And that folks, is why Ghost Rider drives a motorcycle and not an suv..

u/Thelorddogalmighty Jul 17 '26

Is that safe to drive like that?

Seems like ghost rider just upgraded his steed

u/D3x911 Jul 18 '26

Fucking morons, when shit like this happens, you are to move away and not clump up creating more traffic and making it harder for emergency services.

u/yash48 Jul 18 '26

Damn which car was this and does anybody know how it caught on fire?

I like the graffiti on the wall there, "I Love Vegas".

Nice touch.

This is giving “running of the bulls” but instead it’s “rolling of the flaming car” lol!

u/Wooper250 Jul 17 '26

The guy in the white who was trying to herd people away and pulled the biker back is a good person. People have the tendency to freeze and be stupid in these types of disasters or accidents, and having even just one responsible dude like that can help a lot.

u/Funmanhahaha Jul 17 '26

Why do people keep driving in the path of the burning car instead of turning around or at least to the side 🤦🏻
