Good on the kid, but sheesh! It only a four foot drop, just let go and land with your legs bent to absorb the impact
rugrugrug
If only she didn't deliberately kick the ladder away.

Nnnnahhh, Fuck Tate, happy new year
dghughes
He even held the ladder leg too! Most people don't get that they should do that. Smart kid.
jermprobably
Dude that's some strength, not everyone can just hang for half that long!
thugg77
she maxed grip strength in mgs2

What a good stepson.

It's like a three foot drop. She would have been fine.

Still added absolutely nothing to the video.

Hey Darryl, how's it hanging?
majortool
Audio on. Sleep tight.
Kingstonboy
she should have been trained to use the ladder. Course is called "working from heights". Your center of mass has to stay between the legs
LoveTriscuit
Yeah, that’s part of the point I imagine. I doubt many retail stores or offices care about teaching those kinds of safety measures.

You should see the fork lift one from Canada.

When I see videos like this I always think how the clock is ticking. The average person can hang like that for only about 90 seconds.
SkynetWithAPoopKnife
I watched a few people try this at a carnival event. Not one person was able to hang on for the required 2 minutes.
I've spent a lot of time at the beach near one of these. I've seen one single guy do it and DOZENS of people fail.
sabrinadiesatdawn
I am *way* below average.
I don't mean to shame anyone but I've spent a lot of time at the beach near the "hang for two minutes for a prize" booth and everyone loses.
It doesn't seem like a lot of time until people start doing it. Around the 60 second mark you can see the panic and regret.

Video guy just happened to be there
RigoryMorty
What video guy?
The video guy videoing ?
That's clearly a security camera...

Just let go. It's like a three foot drop?

Iloveanonymityandilovebeingnoticed
I need a gif of Mirabel dropping Tio Bruno, him disappearing into the fog, only to spring back up cuz the drop was like a foot.
Callito
But hoe would you get internet points for your Fake "child saves women" video then?
PapaSez
So, fall & risk injury OR just get the kid to put the ladder back up & you choose potential injury? Weird.
Sortros
Do your kids operate a lift to get you out of bed in the morning too?
Right? Have the kid move the ladder so you don't land on it, and just roll with it
Housemaster
They're living with Witcher 3 fall damage.

I'd superhero land and have the kid thinking I'm undercover for years
Sipulikeitto
Standard ANSI rung spacing is 12 inch, so that's 4ft drop.
NomDeImguerre
Once you're past 30, drops like these will kill you. Or at least break bones.
pumly
What. Drop and roll. And get your tidy black clothes covered in dust and dirt and maybe scuffed or torn.
It's about the friends you make along the way...

I have seen this so many times in memes. What is the context here?
Danny Devito attempts to kill his captor who gets pushed off the roof. the hostage situation was fake, the drop was 4 feet.
“The gang gets held hostage” the McPoyles are trying to get back at the gang for injuring their brother in an earlier episode
Minzoik
You can easily die from a 3ft drop, especially if you're hanging on like this and swinging slightly.
You forgot the "/s"
thechelonianshelmet
It sounds daft, but death, etc from simple falls are more prevelant than one realises https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/falls
B0g4r7
Those are surprise falls, not cases like this where she can prepare and choose when to let go.
I used those for height purposes, I witnessed a friend let go from a short height & broke his ankle, that's just 1 I can mention, it happens
CapitalNick
Forced perspective. Those rungs look farther than a foot apart plus the width of each rung. Closer to a 5 - 5 1/2 foot drop.
HighLordRegentofChaos
that kid runs right by dudes feet is definitely not 5ft tall, 3ft at most.
Runs by. Further away. Not under.
AmIAUniquePersonality
It's staged. You can see her pushing the ladder. This kind of crappy "heart-warming altruism" video is common in rural china for some reason
shushilly
That kid was either in in it or, freaked out and then felt like a hero afterward. Still could be traumatizing.
what?
*in on it
Emperorsteele
Might be a 4 foot drop, as she's 4 steps up the ladder by the time she re-attaches. And that can be painful if you don't know how to land.
Emjayen
I'd guess he's about 5, and the average height for a 5 year-old in "Asia" is about 3'4ft and he appears to be a bit lower so ... checks out?

Retry sure that child is four, but who knows?

UnattendedDeviant
Usually on your feet.
Beezlebubble
Land on your feet (duh) and as you do, start bending your legs as if your knees were a spring and then you have two good options:
1. Try and force a roll (I'd recommend to your shoulder, I can't somersault for shit for some reason) 2. Jump with the potential energy you

Depending on balance, backward roll could be better. Need to tuck the chin to protect the head.
Judo move would be to smack the ground to spread some energy, but not ideal on concrete.
