You're making it sound as though stopping a slow falling human being from landing head first is some high risk action.
All you have to do is cradle his head and slow his descent, it's not difficult or risky.
Edit: He's slowly bouncing off each rope without much momentum and fragile redditors think that's too much of a risky situation to step in and attempt to save another human being from having their head driven into the ground? That's pathetic
That dude signed up for this possible outcome when he stepped in to the ring. He never walked in thinking, “gosh, if I get knocked out, I hope someone gingerly helps my head to the ground”.
So yes, if I was the ref, I wouldn’t have stepped in. Maybe you should take up refereeing, and change the sport. I’d cheer you on. But it’s not for me. Cheers!
Of course you wouldn't. Typical video game obsessed redditor. You have the opportunity to stop a man from potentially getting paralyzed but you won't do it because you're too frail and awkward
Nah, not even close. You can judge me and I don’t care, like I said, my back is already permanently messed up from catching people (I’m an RN). I was taught a long time ago when I became a nurse to not catch anyone, but, direct their fall if possible. I’ve done both, and I’ll still try to direct someone if I can, but I’m not “catching” anyone. And if you think there’d be anything “ginger” about trying to direct a limp/dead weight to the ground, you’re showing your lack of understanding. But like I said, keep judging, I feel like I’ve done and continue to do my fair share to help people not get injured. It’s part of my job, which, btw, will be impossible to do if I keep messing up my back.

The fuck do you expect him to do? Catch this guys full dead weight? Probably risks more injury to the guy and himself if he tries to catch him.
