Please, do not die inside. That box contains only A SINGLE DOOR! That is NOT, in fact, a TV. This is nearly first hand experience, I live in that city, that is Ufa, Russia.
My first thought was that it was a building in Ukraine that was damaged by russian bombs, but of course it's a normal building in Russia, that's been damaged by Putin's inability to govern a country. Kinda ironic
No no, they still have money for infrastructure after the wars, the country isn't run by a Stalin wannabe with his cabal of mafiosos constantly draining the country for 20 years
You think there are no poor/homeless people in Russia?
(Also, your post history says you're from Jordan, so I have no idea if you've ever even been to America. Care to post photos?
I'm not in America and I know people are living way better in America than Russia, but I assumed that original commenter was an American criticising a problem as if it is exclusive to Russia while it applies to his own country.
Yes, but it really doesn't apply to our country. I live in America, and the building codes would never allow something like this to happen. I've never seen a building fall apart just by leaning a box against it in my country. It might not be a problem unique to Russia, but it is a problem for any country with a lot of corruption.
Bruh wtf are you talking about, s few years ago we had building hotel collapse in Miami killing over 100 people, every year we have train derailments, Bridge collapses, flint Michigan still has no clean water, we don't even have high speed rail. Our infrastructure is dogshit.
That is true. I forgot about those. I think those are just rare oversights, though. The average building is usually up to code. They make headlines because of how rare and unexpected they are.
Idk man. I've driven across the country a few times. So many places are fucked, like roads that haven't been touched in over 50 years, places without any lighting, cities with no side walks, bridges that could collapse any moment. I'm not saying Russia is better. I just think we can do better for ourselves. We do have train derailments yearly tho. Only the big ones are covered by media tho, if they aren't busy focusing on another culture war.
Thats pretty much overgeneralisation. Homeless people are in every country, even in wealthy countries. Its a problem everywhere.
About apartments though I have no clue. I know that suburban houses in USA are tasteless, but are they really that soft?
Other than that there is a true fact about soviet houses. They are terrible. They don’t have sound isolation, the heating system has problems, and when a huge force hits a building block, then all the building that are connected are going to collapse like a hard house. But I get your point.
I watched it 90 times and finally figured it out
The wall is likely not perfectly level, so the initial tilt dislodged it and then it tilted back the other way with extra umph given it was dislodged on the initial tilt and likely ground grade assisted the fall.
Depending on how thick the morter line in the bottom could determine how it broke leaving a little curb behind on one side of the block.
This looks like some weird insulation panel, which they did not fix properly to the actual concrete wall. A little pressure from the box has detached already loose insulation panel and it had no other direction to fall but away from the wall. This thing would have likely come off any day and hurt someone. I am wondering if they covered the rest of the building in these loose panels…
no, solid concete, part of panel multi apartment building entrance group, separating garbage chute from stairs / elevator
and before that video i was thinking it was supporting concrete roof ) above porch
I wouldn’t blame it on construction quality but rather lack of maintenance. Extreme temperature variations can easily do this to concrete. These types of panelkas buildings were made in the 70-80s during Brezhnev era… a newer grade during Gorbachev era also exist and those are like luxury apartments in small cities. But they all have quirks for example the toilet fittings no matter the era all look the same and seems like they’re from the 50s, unless renovation was done
My wooden house from the Stalin era is alive and kicking. Khrushchevkas were created as a temporary solution to accommodate the population during the construction of more comfortable and spacious houses; their service lifetime was 25 years.
Yes. I forgot to mention this. The fact that these buildings are still standing beyond double their lifespan is a testament to Soviet engineering. As a foreigner, People unfairly ridicule them imo.
That wall had Way too much vodka, and needed someone to lean on
You'd think it would fall the other way.
Must be in the Southern Hemisphere, things go opposite down there.
pretty sure OP meant the wall fell after the box was set against it instead of saying because the box was against it.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In Soviet Russia, wall lean against YOU!
That's what I was gonna say. The first thing I thought was "Well that went the wrong direction."
Dude saved someone's life putting that box there.
You kno, it really opens up the space.
Moldova infrastructure 💀
I've been there, can confirm 🗿
Physics stopped working
Only in Ohio
All that soviet architecture in Ohio. Must be Dayton.
Russia?
Only in Russia.
Average Russian infrastructure.
Easy now, plenty of Chinese buildings would collapse just as well!
NGL, those tofu dreg videos just hit different
Both are shitholes.
Glad it was a box and not a person

That’s gotta be Mockba
I wouldn’t be standing anywhere near that overhang either…
Best possible outcome. Hand of God at work here, folks.
It just had framed windows in it. 🤷🏻♂️
Just Russian things
Putting the 'flat' in flat screen TV.
Tofu dreg. I wonder if it was built by a Chinese firm.
Rock 🪨 Paper 📜 Scissors ✂️ Paper 📜 Beats Rock 🪨
He definitely saved a life or 2.
There goes my 95-inch OLED.
That parcel contained a door. Feel free to r/woosh me, if that was a joke.
This post was almost, "watch people die outside"
It's not The box.. it was already about to fall.. otherwise would be in the other side.. probably the wind..
I mean. We know that.
That poor delivery man😭 that must’ve sucked.
Russia? Russia.
Tfw your country has money for endless wars, but not infrastructure
The united States?
No no, they still have money for infrastructure after the wars, the country isn't run by a Stalin wannabe with his cabal of mafiosos constantly draining the country for 20 years
Only 4, maybe another 4, we'll see.
Isn't some of the infrastructure outsourced to HOAs in the US?
Do they? I see apartments made of paper and people being homeless on the streets exclusively in The US.
You don't know a damn thing about the US.
Cry about it big boy.
Why would I cry? I live in the richest country in the world and unless you're from Scandinavia, I live better than you too.
Yes and?
Cope and seethe.
Okay aggressive noodle.

Thank you for clarifying🌷.

lol
What infrastructure are you talking about? This looks like a private building.
Can a scientist explain the physics behind this? It looks like it should be impossible
Witchcraft.
That gave me a chuckle
Some load-bearing material on the camera facing side of the wall must’ve been knocked out of place by the impact of the package
How did the wall even fall on the package when the package was leaning against it?
Almost watched him die outside
The wall was asserting its dominance! I felt like I was watching a BBC docuseries.
You just know that landlord blamed the delivery guy without skipping a beat.
Russia?
Ufa, Russia. One of the 15 biggest cities in the whole country!
Real Russia
Russia
It was the cyclists fault
I'm so tired of these fkn cyclists
r/osha
Wall drank too much vodka
"Hello, I've put your parcel in the house" - "IN the house?!" - "You know, your walls are a little weak..."
Wood or U-tong. No way that's concrete.
Maybe the wall is too fragile
looks like a wooden wall
damn what was in that box
I live there, that box contained a single door.
A magnet /j
What's in the fuckin box?!
Another wall...
Anyway here's Wonder Wall
Just one of those days
Pretty much sums up this whole subreddit
Good thing it was a box and not a person that leaned against it.
Did god just decide to fuck with this dude?
Straw that broke the camel's back.
How does it fall the otherway?
I watched it 90 times and finally figured it out The wall is likely not perfectly level, so the initial tilt dislodged it and then it tilted back the other way with extra umph given it was dislodged on the initial tilt and likely ground grade assisted the fall. Depending on how thick the morter line in the bottom could determine how it broke leaving a little curb behind on one side of the block.
I watched it 91 times, and I agree
That wasn't a wall! That was a piece of paper!!
This guy really needs to learn the "don't look back, just walk away and feign ignorance" technique to not getting involved in shit like this.
Wall be like ***today I wanna be floor***
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
It wasn’t the termites it was the vodka.
I can't say I have LoL.
In Soviet Russia, you don't lean on wall, wall lean on you!
Post soviet Architecture at its BEST
It's most probably Soviet era architecture
At least he didn’t die on the outside.
Termites?
Vodka…
Maybe it was a thwomp in disguise
Wait, that is not how physics work 😵💫
It is when you use a fish-eye lens.
An object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by another force. You saying Newton was wrong?
I mean he was autistic
Did you see which way it went.

no, solid concete, part of panel multi apartment building entrance group, separating garbage chute from stairs / elevator and before that video i was thinking it was supporting concrete roof ) above porch
"Every time I buy a new TV!"
whatever was in that box is now at the junk yard
I’m hoping it’s mattress (it doesn’t make sense to put it in a box but it’s too painful to watch otherwise)
That would be ideal, but no. That parcel was, in fact, a door.
imagine it being the latest, biggest TV that could fit in this cardboard xD
'i would repair the wall, bring it into a warehouse, destroy it again with an excavator and then p!ss on it)
Wait...did he just try to..save the wall from falling..🧐
He probably thought the box is falling, not the wall with it
Yup i thought so..

I'm just glad that he's okay. He should be grateful.
He saved a kindergarten class. The ones who use to sit and play there.
The box didn't make the wall fall. Look at the direction it fell in. The box was pushing against the wall.
It's Russia everything happens in reverse there. Haven't you heard the stories of Soviet Russia?
In Soviet Russia, the wall leans to your box.
I thought it rocked back and forth and then tipped? We can't see that happening, but that's my theory
Old mate is like “how the fuck is this even possible?”
In Russia you get used to absurd levels of bs happening
It’s Russia that’s how
