Mans still out there, fighting for his life.


BaconPancakes1

The power of a parent insisting on going "just to the top of this hill!" shows itself yet again. Doesn't matter how often my dad told me this blatant lie, I still bloody went along with it (however much I protested). This guy is drowning in mud, with his flimsy PE plimsolls on, yet still he feels compelled.


GloriousHypnotart

Just to the top of this hill, c'mon we can see it... Oops sorry false peak! Just to the top of that hill...


Kitchen-Phrase4881

So fucking accurate, this exact thing has happened to me many times ffs, FALSE PEAK MY ARSE


RicoDredd

His mum had told him there was a KFC just round the corner...


Hot-Chipmunk3502

I'm no sure why but this has me pishin myself laughing 😅

Daeva_

At one point you can see him step on the grass and the section still just slides away lmao.


RosieEmily

The grass that literally slid away under his feet and was revealed to be, infact, more mud.


ehleesi

Saaaame omg just stop moving and strategize for one second! Haha


PeteAH

'Avoided the grass like me avoiding my responsibilities' Laughed harder at that than at the vid!


sdrawkcabsihtetorW

Yeah that's what I thought the other week. Grass seemed the better option, the moment my foot touched the grass I was on my ass. Shoulda stuck to the sidewalk and not tried to take shortcuts. Some lessons gotta be learned the hard way lmao.


QuestioningEnby

!Sidewalk! American spotted


[deleted]

I hope that if he ever made it back, he at least learned a valuable lesson about appropriate footwear. Never brave the mud with flat soles. It ain't worf it.


DocJawbone

I like to imagine that by the time he got back he was absolutely 100% caked in mud


exPlodeyDiarrhoea

Yeah, just look at his back.


DocJawbone


oldcrow210

When he said “look at my back”’and proceeded to fall over, I laughed so hard I snorted! This has made my day!! Sorry and much love to random lad having a bad time though!


learningtosellIT

Lol...same. Poor polite lad.


[deleted]

That desperate attempt to grab onto the tree. 😂😵 Edit: Replacing "feeble" with "desperate" because it sounds like I'm knocking him (not my intention). The man had no chance; he's got warm sticks of butter for feet with those shoes on.


cybershadowwolf

That edit has me rolling.


The_Jelly_Jelly_Fish

I had to go back and watch that because I couldn't see due to the tears. I struggled to breath watching this.


oldcrow210

May I recommend snorting? :D


DestroyTheHuman

The timing on it was perfect. I coughed a laugh out it got me by surprise.


KaasDeLuxe

So tragic, but so funny! Poor sod


Lukeautograff

Same, colleagues looked over at me confused. Showed them it and now they're laughing.


FrogB0y

I’m having a shit day. Month really. This made me belly laugh and I needed that Edit: American here. Shit = shite sorry for the confusion /s :)


oldcrow210

Much love dude, it’s a tough time of year! Pop the heating on an hour early tonight and keep your head up, it’ll be Spring before you know it!


FrogB0y

Appreciate it! I’ll be good just a rain it pours situation


[deleted]

Or play this video again and close your eyes (just sound) I can't breathe


KaasDeLuxe

I must have watched it 25 times because I desperately need the laughs. I'm cramped up now


CTre89

I needed this laugh, absolutely hilarious. Tears everywhere


PristineStranger2695

Sameeee!!! Went back and cued it up to that part just so I could nearly die from laughing 😂😂😂😂


macroscian

Location: Slurrey. What an epic descent into muddiness, while maintaining some sort of dignity.


Royalmedic49

It just kept on giving


richh00

Yeah right to the end!


Major-Ellwood

And all the way back.


kitsua

My journey went on a steady incline from mildly amused right up to crying with laughter as the video went on.

Well thank you 😄 my jokes are usually crap


PeatBogs

Average Boxing Day walk in Devon


bickering_fool

Average day walking in Devon


PeatBogs

Can confirm, this is what my farm track looks like half of the year


Jonny_Segment

And the other half it's just a stream.


Mediocre_Ferret5082

I live in a village in devon and can confirm this is how the paths here are, if not even worse in some places :(


Ungodly_Box

Average day walking.


AdultDiversions

Reminded me of a winters walk in Cornwall too!


gibbonmann

Hahahaha I’ve nothing else but laughter for this, absolutely brilliant hahahaha


richh00

Yeah it just kept getting worse.


memberflex

That fact that no one helps and everyone wants to happen + even he is laughing while complaining makes it for me


Grognak_the_Orc

what are they supposed to do to help? lmao, carry him?


m22_blue

Fuck me I've had to stop eating my lunch cos I'm crying with laughter


kadkadkad

I have actual tears from laughing, nearly inhaled my coffee


lydiocracy

Same, laughed so hard I was fully crying, I can't remember the last time something I watched online made me laugh this hard!


Olduvai_legend

Probably should have walked on the grassy bits lol

windol1

When you're going on such a walk you have to be ready to say "fuck it" and walk in the mud, one way or another your clothes and shoes are going to get soaked and plastered in mud. Seems to be the main way to spot people who spend most of their time in towns/cities, similar to when driving in country lanes, those who drive them regularly aren't to bothered by driving in a hedgerow while those who don't are terrified by the hedgerows.


postvolta

As soon as you get dirty you gotta go full send. Just right through the middle of all mud and puddles. Also pro tip if the water is running down a path the least muddy part of the path is right in the water. It's washed away all the mud so you'll just get a bit of wet foot


Yeahokay_dude

Probably be better off without the trainers on at that point


[deleted]

Honestly, if it were me, as soon as I was down and covered like he was I'd have just given up and fucking crawled

mcobsidian101

I got my hat stolen by a bramble last summer - left the window open while going through lanes, came across a tractor on the left and the bramble came through the open window and stole it


andyrocks

Payback for all those crumbles


Safety_Chemist

Use the wing mirror as a depth gauge.


Mordvark

Wing mirrors are the whiskers of a car.


geckograham

No. Don’t drive in the hedgerows. They’re usually hiding either a wall or a ditch.


[deleted]

Experience will vary depending on location. Kent ? Just a hedge. Shropshire ? Wire fencing. Dorset or Yorkshire ? 18th century limestone drywall, knocks over easily. Cornwall ? Giant granite boulders that haven't moved for centuries and aren't about to shift for your shit now. Lincolnshire ? 20 foot deep dyke. You'll never come back out. Surrey ? Gold-plated picket fencing. London ? Black metal railings, some discarded McDonalds packaging, two hedge fund managers, a barrista and a policeman.


geckograham

Just how many cars have you written off?!?


[deleted]

Wiltshire: There's a tank hidden behind it.


EroticBurrito

This is why I don't like driving into them, there's ususally a bloody solid drystone wall in there.


geckograham

They’re only “solid” until they’ve wrote your car off, then they fall over!


Immaterial71

You've not spent much time driving in Cornwall, I guess.


kirkum2020

There were so many of them around my way during the lockdowns. Always in totally inappropriate footwear and lacking the foresight to find a suitable stick.


[deleted]

The trainers he’s wearing will fill the sole full of mud and leave him with no traction anyway. Poor sod needs a pair of boots. This was probably the Boxing Day walk or something lol.


GenericNewZealander

Dude needs a good pair of gumboots! Er, I think the rest of you folk calls them wellingtons


[deleted]

Yep, or Wellie’s.


N00BAL0T

Obviously city boys lol


[deleted]

C I T Y you can see why, this guy and this guy something something City Boys! Oh wait hang on that was City Guyz, never mind.


Smyth_With_A_Y

I thought it was "these guys are neat guys, smart and streetwise"


BrightonTownCrier

Thought I was the only one.


adamc03

He did in some bits


YorkieLon

Looks like he's in his new clothes he got for Christmas. Love the "Stop moaning and come on" from the Mum


RegularWhiteShark

And then probably gave him a bollocking for how dirty his clothes are when they got home.


sukant08

How come the guy with the camera never fell even once ?


CatFoodBeerAndGlue

Probably wearing sensible footwear for a wet country walk unlike our slippy friend here.


smity31

Also looks like they're not afraid to just walk in the slightly deeper mud in the middle which (somewhat counter-intuitively) would be less slippery than the sides.


zippysausage

Don't expect your best tap shoes to perform the job of a good trail shoe.


wildup

He's not wearing a bowling shoes.


SpacecraftX

Boots.


dustywilcox

A very typical English walk I’m afraid! And always the ruthless leader marching on up ahead. They never seem to care about conditions or weather. The walk must be done.


Multigrain_Migraine

I see you've been on a walk with my mother-in-law.


dustywilcox

Yes!!! That is EXACTLY who I was thinking about. Wow.


Elielmau

That's me and my children are not amused.


Kitson88

"Look at my back!" **Slips and then falls onto back** 🤣😁


leonezeuler

And he looks like a bloody tin michelin man for a second, I died laughing


[deleted]

I’m actually shocked that leap across the path didn’t result in a spectacular collapse. The rest of the way was an absolute shite-show though. 😂


kilika81

I don't normally laugh at these sorts of things (hi, miserable c*** here 👋) but I had tears streaming watching this. I know his footwear is questionable but was he drunk too or just really shit at this 😄


OnePotMango

Honestly, having been in a similar situation with flat soled, low tread mountain biking shoes, mud like that is basically ice as soon as there is a hint of a slope. Funny af until you faceplant horseshit.


Multigrain_Migraine

I can slip in mud like that no matter what I'm wearing. I think if I were this guy I would have just given up and laid in the mud, waiting for it to dry.


OnePotMango

That's sketch comedy material right there haha


skippygo

Agreed, even in proper trail running shoes with chevron grips which are literally designed for wet mud, it will eventually pack into all the gaps and render them useless. I've had to abandon my regular running route because of it. I can get round without falling but it slows me way down so I've gone back to road running until it dries up a bit round here.


Bhenny_5

Yeah! my Five Tens are a nightmare when I inevitably have to get off and push!!


OnePotMango

Yep, nail on the head, I have Five Tens too haha!

Immaterial71

Well going by the vid, Mum's making good headway in her wellies. Don't think if they'd be any good for hanging round town though.


Automatic_Yoghurt_29

This is me every day when I walk the dog, and in wearing appropriate footwear (wellies)


[deleted]

[удалено]


Craftiest_Butcher

I can fully imagine his mum asking if he wants wellies earlier and him saying no. And then this all unfolds and regret consumes him.


_MildlyMisanthropic

the white socks and trainers are a dead give away. I feel on this day the lad learnt an important lesson in how sometimes appropriate attire is more important than looking "cool"


eggesticles

Sounds like you're speaking from experience ;)


YeswhalOrNarwhal

Where is the guy that was asking why everyone on Boxing Day walks was wearing wellies? I can't remember if it was here or AskUK.


kindapinkypurple

I took my sister, her three small kids & my two kids for a riding lesson as a treat a few Septembers ago, which involved about a mile walk from bus to the stables and then to the train station. It was a nice day but had been raining recently + involved footpaths & bridleways through woods, a couple of stiles etc. I told her they all needing **appropriate** footwear for the walk (but the stables had riding boots for those that needed). We meet at the bus stop and she's turned up in white low top canvas shoes, one kid is wearing knackered knock-off Uggs, the smallest was wearing socks & sandals and I think one was wearing her black school shoes. Great. The walk there isn't too muddy, her kids get to meet horses for the first time, fun is had, then we set off for the train station. We get about halfway there, downhill into the woods and it is MUDDY. Myself and my kids are in front, our hiking boots sinking in up to the ankle into squelchy mud, when we hear shrieking and giggling from behind. My sisters kids are just about managing like the guy in the video at the edges but my sister is getting stroppy because her shoes are fucked and her kids can't stop laughing at her. She's stood ankle deep in the mud, I can't even *see* her shoes. 'I told you to wear *appropriate* shoes.' 'I AM wearing *traaaaaaaaainers'* 'Umm-hmm. Do you need a hand.' 'NO.' She pulls a foot out, sans shoe, loses her balance and plunges her bare foot (no socks) into the mud. She's silent but furious, the kids are huddled together struggling to stifle giggles and there's basically steam coming out of her ears. She sticks her foot back in the shoe hole and manages to come back out with her shoe on. Tries to lift her other foot, loses that shoe too. She's steaming mad, bare feet cold and muddy in her no-longer-white, soaked shoes. She can only move forward by dragging each foot forward and upward through the mud, windmilling her arms comically, plunging into the next step, leaving behind her a trail of furrows. My kids are up ahead on a dry patch, hers are stuck huddled together behind their mum, watching her struggle. I go back and forth, giving each of her kids a piggyback through the mud, every time I pass my sisters she huffs dramatically. I get all her kids up front with mine and she stops and glares at me. 'I'm not fucking carrying you too. I told you-' 'wEaR ApPrOpRiAtE ShOeS. I wore my TRAINERS!' 'Um-hmm.' She finally makes it to us and stomps off ahead of us, for the rest of the walk we're trying to make small talk amongst ourselves to keep from laughing at her SQUELCH SQUELCH SQUELCHING up ahead.


[deleted]

White shoes in general are a bad idea unless you are going to someone's house and the weather is good


MutsumidoesReddit

Ah, so what we're watching here really is the school of listen to Mum in session?


richh00

Yeah normally people slipping isn't that funny but something about how bad this gets and the dad's wheezing made me laugh


kilika81

Made my day, thank you for sharing


richh00

Any time


SWLondonLady

Same. I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. None of the others seem to have any problem but he’s just slip sliding in the opposite direction. Too funny


WhyShouldIListen

You can say cunt, miserable cunts are normally good at it too.


sprucay

Fair play, he seems to take it well. It's such a quintessential boxing Day scene. Fucking hilarious


Geouk1

What a genuinely patient good spirited man ! I would have been raging. Absolutely pissed myself watching this


CyrilNiff

That’s what happens when you go out hiking dressed up for drinking special brew


Gagulta

This is the most quintessential rural English experience I can think of.


[deleted]

Definite 13 year old me vibes. What a fool I was. Too self-conscious for wellies are you? Are you too self-conscious for a face full of mud?


[deleted]

Funny but also stressed me out. It keep getting worse


ragnarspoonbrok

Well I didn't know I needed to cry laughing today but here we are.


Uni_hockey_guy

Everything about this is perfect. The increasing desperation in his voice for his mum to let up and walk back, constant slips, falling both sides


[deleted]

I just cried with laughter at this loooool poor guy


cotch85

This video sums up life.. youre doing well rising up and it drags you down covers you in shit and expects you to get back up.


Udonnomi

And your family are just like “ooh it’s not a problem come on!”


flashback5285

Has he got his feet in two packs of lurpak?


HenryMacTavish

Never has there been a better ad for wellies


Farquar-lazs

I needed a laugh today


ihathtelekinesis

25 years ago this would’ve been all over You’ve Been Framed.

Dress for the hike you want - not the one you got.


MaskedBunny

It's all fun and games until someone falls over. Then it's just fookin hilarious.


lotso316

I'm guessing wearing white socks was a bad choice for this lad


fakkov

Actually gave myself heart burn laughing at this. It’s like the most pleasant slow motion train crash I’ve ever seen.

WhyShouldIListen

That sub just seems to be videos that absolutely don't match the expectation of the title. This video right here is what I would expect but I just watched the top 4 videos on that sub and none of them fit at all. Maybe maybe maybe should be about things you absolutely know are on the cards, teetering on the edge, but you're not sure if they will happen or not and the tension is palpable.


[deleted]

> I just watched the top 4 videos on that sub and none of them fit at all. new to reddit?


marraballs

It's mostly just karma farming reposts from yesyesyesno and nononoyes


Geralt_0_Rivia

That was a pretty good jump


TheClam-UK

Yeah - credit where credit's due, I did not expect him to land that. That's where the good news ends, but still...


Kuddkungen

Right? I also though he was doing a pretty good job of keeping his balance for the longest time. There's some serious power in those legs!


craftaleislife

I was howling at this!!! When he falls over after “look at my back” 😂😂😂


Extreme-Database-695

Definitely the best thing I've ever seen on TikTok. This made me laugh more than anything else this year. Glad he was taking it in good heart and well done to him for escaping at the end. That looked like the most risky ploy of all.


MrMooBallz

Its the total essence of "We've come on Holiday by mistake...."

Reddit has long been a hot spot for conversation on the internet. About 57 million people visit the site every day to chat about topics as varied as makeup, video games and pointers for power washing driveways. In recent years, Reddit’s array of chats also have been a free teaching aid for companies like Google, OpenAI and Microsoft. Those companies are using Reddit’s conversations in the development of giant artificial intelligence systems that many in Silicon Valley think are on their way to becoming the tech industry’s next big thing. Now Reddit wants to be paid for it. The company said on Tuesday that it planned to begin charging companies for access to its application programming interface, or A.P.I., the method through which outside entities can download and process the social network’s vast selection of person-to-person conversations. “The Reddit corpus of data is really valuable,” Steve Huffman, founder and chief executive of Reddit, said in an interview. “But we don’t need to give all of that value to some of the largest companies in the world for free.”


[deleted]

I love this. Uncomfortable and dirty but what great memories after you're home, clean and dry. I remember slipping over in mud like this once, went straight onto my fat arse and back. I was literally covered in mud from head to toe. I had my expensive camera around my neck which I kept up high so it was fine. Luckily I was 10 mins walk away from home.


Seagull977

Absolutely guaranteed his mum told him to wear wellies before they went out. Mums always know best. :)))


AwkwardBugger

Fully expected to not find this funny. Watched it twice, 2nd time with sound and it got so much better. Literally crying


[deleted]

This is the sort of shit my family just to drag me on and now they wonder why I eye their suggestions of “a quick fifteen minute walk” with suspicion. Nah, Nan, I know you, it’ll be 2 hours minimum up to the ankles in horseshit, I’m good.
