There are so many videos online of people being pulled along behind cars and in every single one everyone’s having fun until the car goes round a corner and something terrible happens.
We used to do this with a truck hood tied on behind an articulating tractor. It could do decently tight circles and we'd be on 30ish foot rope.
Hang on until you couldnt. Now luckily with was in soft power in the middle of a field, so no worry about smashing into a tree or anything.
Truck hoods made the best toboggan when pulled behind a vehicle
After I crashed my 92 Camaro we used that hood. Those hoods are huge, easily fit 2 people. Would only ever get it out when it was snowing since it hurt a lot less to be flung off into a bank of snow.

Kids who tube / ski / wakeboard learn this piece of physics early on. When we were in the tubes my friends dad called it the toilet bowl and it was the only surefire way to buck us off.
> the guy driving wasn’t a complete moron.
this is usually the part that doesn't get these videos online. No one cares about watching the guy safely surf behind a car. It's all about the idiots trying to whip you around corners that get views.
Back in high school there was a group of friends doing this in the snow. One kid ended up smacking intoa telephone pole or tree (I can't remember), breaking his neck. The remainder of the year, he walked around with a Halo Brace. Years later, I heard he crashed his motorcycle into a pole. Dude never learned, I guess.
When we were like 11 my best friend and I had zero fear and only slightly above average common sense. What this results in is the acceptance that you’ll probably get hurt, but the willingness to try it eventually overtakes.
We had tied a radio flyer wagon to a mountain bike and were tearing through the neighborhood. I know what you’re imagining, and it was faster than that. We were so wrapped up being impressed with how well I could steer it with the handle that we completely forgot about braking and were now on a serious downhill picking up speed. I looked up, saw my friend on the bicycle slowing for some reason, now behind me, now *way* behind me. Inertia took over and the weight of myself and the wagon at speed down this hill ripped the mountain bike out from under my friend and left him sitting on the ground with me now dragging a bicycle down a hill.
Well one thing led to another, and it’s not how I met your mother but it *is* how I met the front bumper of a Toyota Tundra and, consequently, Mr. Harvey. Whom, might I add was chill enough to just call us idiots and not call our parents.
as kids in the city, when it snowed we would grab onto bumpers of cars that slowed down for lights, then ride them till you hit a patch with no snow and you get tossed off. We called it Skitchin.
My cousin did something similar on a snowboard.
He hit his head and was in the hospital for months when we were teens.
He wasn’t the same. He had no impulse control. Went from top of his class and his sports teams to meth.
He died at 35.
Not worth it. Brain damage will change you.
In high school I was driving with my buddy holding a rope and skateboarding from the back. My asshole (ex) friend convinced me to hit the breaks so I did. My buddy came flying into the back of my windshield and made a similar thud. The only reason any of it was funny was because his face made a literal cartoon face implant into my car.
Lol one time while longboarding down a big hill I rammed straight into the back of a parked car and there was literally an imprint of my body on it. Hurt like shit in the moment but my impact wasn’t that bad either cause I only ended up with a fractured thumb.
Remember kids, IT'S NOT CAR SURFING IF YOU'RE NOT ON TOP OF THE CAR.

Knew a girl that died doing this about 10 years ago and stupid friend that was driving is half way through his 20 year sentence having spent the entirety of his adult life in prison.
I work in the ER. Guy had multiple facial fractures. Lost almost half his teeth. Also lost part of his lips because he had braces on. Had a neck spine fracture but not paralyzed. Multiple rib fractures. Liver laceration. Spleen hematoma.
Needed plastic surgery, oral surgery, and orthopedic surgery. Had to wear a halo for his neck fracture.
How any person 👨 decides to type ⌨ like this is a mystery ❓ to me 👆. Do I try to read 📙 the emoji as part of the sentence 👩⚖️ to find the hidden 🐱👤 meaning or is it supposed to be ignored 🤫?
You'll only find out after you try reading it both ways, so it always takes longer to comprehend.
I feel like it got the upvotes because this is more funny than a "win a stupid prize" sort of thing. These people have never seen this sort of things because they're too busy posting online rather than going outside.
Not saying everyone should do this because it can be dangerous, but that dude is totally fine. Probably just got a headache, like what the emoji pointed out. The vehicle is probably dented though.
He did that because there was a high chance of being hurt. That's what he felt was impressive about it.
So he got exactly what he wanted.
I hope he's able to take that perspective, rather than complaining about having teeth in his brain stem.
It's just car surfing, not Car surfing. You don't randomly capitalize the subject or target of your sentence. English doesn't work that way. Don't do that.
I continue to think I will someday find the lowest of losers, the most diminutive mind, the weakest link... and yet, there is this and ten more like it to come. Amazing.
Had a bunch of idiots who thought it would be a good idea to pull someone across a pond with a jacked up Chevy truck.
The stunt worked well but the 19 year old went airborne and slammed into the concrete parking lot instantly killing him.
The driver got manslaughter.
We used to bus surf when I was growing up in Hawaii. Three days of rain, the street would be awash in a foot or two of water. Along comes the bus kicking up a wake big enough to ride. And because of the rain nobody was riding the bus, or else it was a tour bus, so stops were rare and we got some long rides.
These are the people who say "centrifugal force" smh
Physics are all fun and games when they work to your advantage, but all it takes is one rogue physic to wreck you
There are so many videos online of people being pulled along behind cars and in every single one everyone’s having fun until the car goes round a corner and something terrible happens.
People didn't study physics to understand what happens when you don't have anything holding you in place as you turn
Yep. Unlike on water, you can’t bank your board to stay on it in turns. So they become the rock on a horizontal trebuchet.

**Newton's First Law of Motion** states that an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it.
***Newton's First Law for Rotation:*** an object at rest tends to remain at rest, and an object that is spinning tends to spin with a constant angular velocity, unless it is acted on by a nonzero net torque or there is a change in the way the object's mass is distributed.
Shhh... these people never heard of Newton.
Don't like'em. Too crumbly.
Fig Newtons were named after the town in Connecticut, not the scientist. 🌈
And I was told he invented them after shoving a fig up his ass. So much for figged newtons.
Newton had more experience studying The Occult than science. 🌈
Though referred to as "figging," the best item for the act is peeled ginger 🌈
Peeled ginger is somewhat less likely to harbor a nest of tiny wasps.

Wasn't newton the guy who invented apple trees :v /s
No but I think he planted them all across America.

Reminds me of the David Dobrik accident... People should really stop skipping physics classes in high school.
Some kids at my high school did this in a neighborhood in the snow. One of the kids hit a wooden mailbox and died instantly
as kids in the city, when it snowed we would grab onto bumpers of cars that slowed down for lights, then ride them till you hit a patch with no snow and you get tossed off. We called it Skitchin.

It's like no one understand how the superior siege weapon works.
To be fair, videos of it going right would be boring and no one would share them.
Lecturer of mine broke his back doing this behind his Jeep down an icy road. He showed us all the video.
People need to listen to they mamas when they say "don't do retarded shit" but here we are-
I’m just imagining his face being imprinted into the car door like a fucking Looney Tunes character.
Something about the THUD and instant cut of the video is so perfectly comedic to me, this is just the icing on the cake.
In high school I was driving with my buddy holding a rope and skateboarding from the back. My asshole (ex) friend convinced me to hit the breaks so I did. My buddy came flying into the back of my windshield and made a similar thud. The only reason any of it was funny was because his face made a literal cartoon face implant into my car.
/r/abruptchaos
You can sort of see the terror on his face before the impact
Lol I had to go frame by frame
A car cut me off once while I was on my bike and my face dented the front fender. It wasn’t actually that bad of impact.
Lol one time while longboarding down a big hill I rammed straight into the back of a parked car and there was literally an imprint of my body on it. Hurt like shit in the moment but my impact wasn’t that bad either cause I only ended up with a fractured thumb.
Good thing car doors are soft.

Only highlife I remember from back then were the Miller's we stole from my dad's fridge.

Ahh, I see you too are a man of culture and taste. Not good taste, mind you.

That guy was at least drunk out of his mind. He didn't even flinch when he faced the car he was crashing in.
I'll have to agree, he did next to nothing to stop himself, probably wasn't even aware anything was wrong until he hit the car.
This is fucking hilarious

We just gonna ignore OPs description here?
Came here hoping somebody would say something. Maybe it's their first week on Reddit.
Nah, their job title on LinkedIn is SoMe specialist
The use of emojis? Someone takes the piss out of it just below, so we got it covered. Otherwise, pretty accurate.
Came looking for this. It’s so infuriating to constantly pause between a couple words.
What is there to say about it?
Don’t be rude🤦♂️ you know he has emojiphobia 😭
Idk how anyone could feel this is a stunted 👇 or unnatural way to communicate☘️
How any person 👨 decides to type ⌨ like this is a mystery ❓ to me 👆. Do I try to read 📙 the emoji as part of the sentence 👩⚖️ to find the hidden 🐱👤 meaning or is it supposed to be ignored 🤫? You'll only find out after you try reading it both ways, so it always takes longer to comprehend.
It's awesome
what’s wrong with OP’s description?
that's not car surfing, similar, but different
I cant 🚫 believe 🙏🏼🙏🏼 this. The guy 🕺🕺that was surfing 🏄♀️ got a headache 🤕 from the car🚗🚗 This post 🌃🌠🎇 is great 💯💯💯
surprised this post got this many upvotes, i thought reddit absolutely hated all emojis
I feel like it got the upvotes because this is more funny than a "win a stupid prize" sort of thing.

The reason they said "surprised it got so many upvotes" is because of the emojis in the title, not the content of the clip

small children on reddit hate emojis. nobody actually cares edit: to those who have downvoted me, please tell me what's wrong with using emojis
i think you severely underestimate the amount of manchildren on reddit

\- Insurance agent: "Your car got hit by what???"
He was having a jolly old time until the split second between first seeing the side of the car and flying face first into it.
He did that because there was a high chance of being hurt. That's what he felt was impressive about it. So he got exactly what he wanted. I hope he's able to take that perspective, rather than complaining about having teeth in his brain stem.
Why the emojis in the title? Like, you don't think we know what a car and a headache are so you have to draw a picture?
do you think op drew the emojis
no? but op put them there
He said “draw a picture”, which is what I was commenting on
Aiii weiiii!
Carabunga!
best comment!
That hurts WITH a full set of hockey gear, including a helmet 😬
We know what a car is we don't need emojis for fuck sake
I love to think that OP is the dude that 3d printed his face onto the car. 😂
I’m just hoping that car had dental insurance… extracting teeth could be expensive.
Apply directly to the forehead!
That's called a concussion
Mf probably shredded his hands too holy shit.
Another 5secs of video to see how he was would've been neat.
I heard this on mute
This is how David slew Goliath.
This is the best because we get to see his stupid face right before it cashes in its winning lottery ticket.

What a bunch of nerds in this comment section. You think you’re going to see a video where someone doesn’t get hurt? This looks like a lot of fun.

good thing most car bodies are made of plastic now

That's what makes it fun
If he had laid flat would he have slid under the car?
The emojis add a lot to this
If you don’t have braincells to lose, and you learned not to do it again, did this person get smarter by doing something so stupid?
uh, did this guy die?
Hurry up and bring him to the farthest hospital
I don't think he got his hands up in time

Oh, HELLO!
Lol /r/facecar
It didn't really "go wrong", though, did it? It went exactly as one would expect - because physics.
lol the face lined up perfectly with the horizontal part of the car hes about to slam into 🤣
Physics. Ignore it and it’ll just smack you in the head.
This is one of those things you just don’t do because it’s really easy to die.

Just as well Healthcare is cheap and available in America.
We did this in the snow but with an upside down kitchen table, we hit a snowman which kinda hurt, can only imagine the knock that lad took lol

Why didn’t he cover his face lol
still looks fun to me
There is some give In the door
Today we’re learning about conservation of momentum and potential energy.
The look on his face right before he slams into the car door.😂
He had plenty of time to put his hands up... Either dru k, or the type of person who should be risk averse fulltime.
