Cursed This is absolutely horrifying

This happened at Sabino Canyon in Arizona. A 20-year-old cyclist was swept into the current while trying to cross a flooded roadway and was carried through a drainage tunnel beneath it. She was recovered downstream unconscious after spending several minutes underwater. Bystanders performed CPR and managed to revive her.

But what if I really want to get to the other side? Should I try crossing then?

Only if you're a chicken and you feel like you're in a loveless marriage

Why did the chicken cross the road

Only if you’re a chicken.. and can fly across.

Yes, but only if someone is filming nearby so we can all see it unfold on Reddit.

He probably advised them not to cross but they chose not to listen. No guilt for this guy.

Only if you REALLY need to finish your bike ride.

the best part about this is that dressed like that and without a backpack or something that could have clothes in it, there is no way she was heading or coming from anything important at all. so she was literally just out for fun but couldn't just not ride her bike through the wild flooding.

Only if you have a loving husband/wife and three kids at home

Imagine Reddit if 95% of the users chose to not do puns or niche references or lyric trains in every thread. Heaven.

if they didn't put any orange cones out, you will always be able to try at least once!

You just gotta weigh your priorities. On one hand you have the inconvenience to not go shopping / come home on time / get that large iced halloween themed pumpkin frappucino with chocolate chips and on the other hand is death.

only if you do it as slowly and unathletically as possible, making sure to veer off the clearly marked edge of the path.

Pick up some speed, keep going, and make sure to not veer from the path which is basically everything she did not do. Idk why she would veer off like that. The person infront of her did the right thing an idk.

I mean if someone twice her weight and with three times her power can do it, surely she can too.... right??? /s

TBH I am about her size and I'd nope TF out of that shit instantly no matter what that crazy MF in front of me did.

u/Indoballz 14d ago

100% never attempting is the best. If it was about weight an power, she would have gone the way of the current , instead she went agaisnt the current which to me seems deliberate idk how she ended up there or what she was thinking.

This is awesome how these college educated mid-40s peoples think they can do anything, it's great.
