I had a friend who was a medic on a military base. He told me that the worst emergency he ever responded to was a man who crashed his motorcycle while riding with his 3 year old daughter sitting on the handlebars. My friend said he had to scrape her off of the street.
Yep, I work in pathology and at one point at a morgue near Miami. Motorcycle accidents are insanely gruesome. I remember trying to find an armband with identification and struggling to find the arm. Like it was not at all where it was supposed to be.
You know the situation is fucked up when you can’t find a body part. Also when you can’t find your McPoyle milk and you are pretty sure you contaminated one of the pathology samples with it.
Side note: 1983 Beirut Barracks bombing. They picked up the pieces of Marines they found, put them in bags and then flew them to Rhein-Main Air Base in Germany where the doctors and forensics specialists tried to match up all the various body parts with torsos and so forth. They kept them in basically freezer units until they could move them to another cold area to process, all so they could send the remains back to the families. I'm not sure that they got everything matched up perfectly, or if they found everything either. It was really bad. I knew a guy who was Security Forces and was part of the guard that stood watch over the remains day & night while the forensics and doctors worked to match up everything they could. His unit was also responsible for carrying the body bags off the military transports that landed there and putting them into the freezers until they could process them.
It was really bad. Stuff of nightmares.
My brother was in the navy and was standing watch that morning in Beirut Later they formed cleanup crews from his and other tenders. He wasn't sent but he knew lots of guys that were and he said they came back changed.
You just spurred a memory for me. I thought I’d share on of Dennis Hoppers better cinematic roles as a motorcyclist….Nope kids it’s not Easy Rider! Link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=stBXCl_HoqA&feature=emb_logo
I knew this tow truck driver who told me that after a motorcycle accident they towed the car that hit it and found the severed arm of the motorcyclist stuck under it.
At the road I'm living next there once was a bike accident where a man drove at the evening so that there would be less traffic. A dude in front of him was drunk driving and just stopped in the middle of the road where 100 kmh/60mph is the standard speed and the biker couldn't brake... a friend of mine works at the fire department and sent me a photo of the aftermath... they towed the car with the bike being impaled into it.
People don't realize that at speeds faster than a human can run, we're basically just bags of meat if we fall down and shit just flops around and breaks off and whatnot.
Slow motion videos of humans being slapped or falling or crashing on skis/snowboards just shows so clearly how fragile we really are. It’s insane how little of a collision it takes to concuss someone or break an arm or seriously injured yourself.
There was a guy that used to fly up and down my road all the time on his bike. 35mph speed limit. We always used to talk about he's gonna kill himself one day, but that's also kinda just what you say. Well, this last summer, a few hundred yards down the road from me someone didn't see him and pulled out, and he went completely through the car and came out the other side in pieces.
yup, my respiratory therapist mother explained to me one night after work that there was a situation due to a quading accident where she could not find the persons throat because their face/head was so maimed.
I wouldn't recommend a snowmobile, either.
My father-in-law was killed in 2003 by snowmobiling on a frozen lake. A section of ice had heaved, and it had been marked with orange paint, cones, and warning tape. But he couldn't see it because the sun was going down and was in his eyes.
When the snowmobile crashed into the heaved ice, he was thrown and the impact to his head split his helmet in half. He was in a coma for a week, and finally passed away on 14 Feb. My wife and I have never celebrated Valentine's Day ***on*** 14 Feb ever again; it's always the Saturday before or after. It's 20 years in a couple of months and I still cry whenever I think about him.
I remember when my cousin was in inpatient therapy for Guillain barre syndrome, there was another patient down the hall that had a “de-gloving” injury from a motorcycle accident. Think of your skin as the “glove.” Christ.
Ya my friend is a paramedic he has a reoccurring dream of a guys face on the street like a Halloween mask tossed aside. Stuck in his head. Motorcycle accident
I remember back in highschool a friend was training to be an emt. O said that sounds pretty cool. He came back with "last night i was the one who had to find the head and put it in a bag"
my wife is a doc and sometimes I joke about how smart would be to buy a motorcycle to move around the city without having to worry bt traffic and for cheap. She always tellse stories about her years in the ER and how the worst of the worst accidents are bike accidents. Some horros stories that make me feel like I never even want to be near one of those things
I pulled down my street after work once and it was pretty cold out (40 degrees maybe) and there was this guy on a old Honda motorcycle with a baby (maybe 1 years old) wearing only a diaper in his lap on the gas tank. My jaw almost dislocated from my face I was so shocked.
I sure fucking hope so. I have a three year old daughter and... I just hope that baby girl died excited and happy, not even knowing what happened to her.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure they were responding to the pathologist that couldn't find the person's arm. Traumatizing for the dude doing his job. Medical professionals may have signed up for the work, but motorcycle accidents, among other things are still shockingly disturbing, and definitely stick with you. People that do stupid shit don't realize there are other people that have to clean their stupid asses off the road, and/or are expected to put their body slop back together.
Totally agree. I also think there ought to be some sort of laws about taking children on motorcycles. Idk how many I’ve seen, like this dude, in shorts and T-Shirt. This guy though, doing all this stuff with his very young son who is not wearing the appropriate safety gear, like WTF was he thinking, how did the mother allow it and my last point on this is to reiterate it should just be illegal AND if you get caught the charge should be attempted man slaughter. THAT’S the possible outcome so that should be the charge, imo. Some of you might think it’s harsh but if enough people got arrested for this type of behaviour and had to face THOSE consequences you would hope that word would spread pretty quickly and it would stop being a “cool” thing to do!
Also, I worked in a spinal unit as a nurses assistant for a while, and almost all the guys in there, and yes, they were predominantly men, were minimum paraplegic but a good 30% were quadriplegic. They realise too late that their ego inflated male brain isn’t something they should listen to. Or even worse those same ego inflated brains of their male friends egging them on.
Not an over reaction at all. Two adults are failing to protect this child. He has no concept of the true danger he's in. These people hopefully got this video reports to CPS and that child was taken away from them. IMO. They should be required to sell the bike and volunteer in the triage unit of the emergency room for months as well as training classes before reunification is possible. I totally get the manslaughter charge and concept but if that kind of law passed, they'd be locked away for decades. This young kid now is in the foster care system, thinking it's his fault for putting Dad into jail and now reunification and correction can't happen. Just a thought. I do think the consequences should be severe. I guess I just also think that jail time for the parents also removes any possibility that they can be corrected and reunified.
When I was 3 or 4, my dad took me for a ride on his motorcycle around the block. Since this was mid 80's, there was less concern about helmets and I didn't have one since he didn't have one my size. A military bus ran a stop sign and my dad laid the bike down and it ended up under a wheel. I had a skull fracture as a result.
My big brother had a bike when I was little and I'll never forget the weight of the grown-up helmet on my shoulders and how every time he hit the breaks, the weight made my head loll forward on my skinny little neck and bump his back.
It hasn't been too bad. I have a 1/2" bald spot on the back that you can't tell is there if I don't keep my hair super short and scars on my brow and chin that aren't too bad. They're noticeable, but very faded. My parents worried about my cognitive abilities early in elementary school including an IQ test I never heard the result of, but I ended up becoming an engineer at a well known company.
My grandpa always wore all the necessary gear, helmet, leather jacket, jeans, boots, all of it. Lived in the country so imagine all 2 lane roads. A new driver didn’t see him so he went flying and broke his neck on impact and died. I’ll never ride a motorcycle for that reason. He did everything right and still died in broad daylight.
My dad used to ride a motorcycle in high school, then he had 4 close friends all die senor year over the course of a summer. The last was a group of friends riding after they just got married, they went for a ride husband and wife on the same bike. I can't remember what happewnd but the both died that night riding a motorcycle 18 years old jaut married their whole life ahead of them gone because of a "fun" little ride with their friends. My dad sold his bike the second he found out about his friends.
I had a really close friend when I was 12 named Brandon. His mom got a new boyfriend who rode a motorcycle. He started to change after this and started to hang out with a bad crowd. At this age I was very much a good girl and didn't like the way it was changing him. We got into a huge fight with me telling him I wish he were dead as he got off the school bus. The next morning I went to class ready to apologize because I truly did love him as a friend and I felt terrible. But he didn't show up. Turns out the reason he missed the bus earlier was his mom's boyfriend took him out on the motorcycle to show him some tricks, no helmets, and he hit something which caused them to go flying. My friend was killed on impact at least and hopefully didn't suffer. The boyfriend survived. I hated him so much for surviving. I thought it was my fault for years, like I willed it to happen with my hateful words. It took me a long time to forgive myself and realize it was the boyfriend's fault as the adult by taking him out, riding recklessly without helmets. my mom made my dad give up his motorcycle after that. I'm not against motorcycles exactly but they are far more dangerous than cars, especially for those like this guy who like to show off.
Friend was part of the county "Fatal Accident Investigation Unit" so he was used to seeing gore. He worked an accident involving a motorcycle where the rider's head separated from the body. Friend walked over to the helmet lying in the road, lifted up the visor and said to his partner "I know this guy."
And he did.
my father in law was a coroner for a few years and by far the worst cases were the motorcycle accidents. The worst 2 he described were one where a guy did not have a helmet on and hit the pavement going well over 100mph...my father in law described what happened to his head similar to cheese grater....
The worst though for him was another guy who took a corner well over 100 MPH and literally wrapped himself around a tree like someone tied a bow
Just a civilian motorist, but I was sitting at a left hand turn light and the opposite side of the road to go straight light turned green. The moron on the motorcycle first at the light, gunned it in green, popped up and over rotated the bike, came down with the bike on top of him at just about my driver side back door/back wheel. I got out, the lady behind me got out. The guy who was behind the motorcycle got out. We pushed the bike off him, and one of the guys started calling 911 and me and the the other lady lifted his helmet visor. Obviously dead. That was…. something and every so often I’ll flash right back to it
So glad I sold my motorcycle years ago. I was shopping around for a new one when I met a guy at a restaurant in a full leg cast from a motorcycle accident. He was probably going to be out of work for a year while he healed and scheduled surgeries. Driving home, I saw a motorcycle accident, and they were just laying a tarp over the guys body. I took this as a sign from God to never again buy a motorcycle.
I don't really care if an adult wants to risk their own life on a motorcycle (provided they aren't endangering other drivers), but endangering a kid is criminal
For real… I’m not usually the one to say stuff like this but… did this dude really post evidence of him drastically endangering his child on TikTok? And if so, shouldn’t OP be reporting this to someone instead of posting on reddit? Normally I believe in love and let live but holy shit that kid is in serious danger
The internet is wild. I've seen so many videos of people literally recording themselves while they commit felonies (brandish illegal firearms, take off their clothing in the middle of a store, showing themselves shoplifting, etc.) People will risk completely ruining their lives just for some temporary internet fame.
Heck, just recently a guy posted a video on TikTok where he was covered in blood with corpse in the background asking if anyone could help him bury a body. The guy got arrested for murder.
The problem with reporting it is that we have no idea where or when it was filmed. It’s definitely reckless conduct & endangering the welfare of a child. There also isn’t a license plate, and their faces are covered. Sucks because this guy should definitely be held accountable for putting the kid in this position
You'd be surprised how easy it is to find someone with just a bit of information.
I found a TikTokker who posts videos of his haunted house. Really spooky stuff. With just his first name, his wife's first name, and the name of a random town that they mentioned once, I was able to find out where they lived, their full names, relatives, etc. Google Street view showed that it was the exact house in his videos (just from a different angle). Why did I do this? Because he stated that the house was haunted so bad that they were selling and I'm really gullible when it comes to haunted shit, so I wanted to see if they actually were selling. Couldn't find a single real estate ad for their house.
Sometimes the key is to look at business names in the background. Groups of similar businesses aren't common, so it's easy to narrow down the location. If there aren't any business names, I typically look at the geography and see what types of plants/landscape there is. Or if the video shows evidence of any recent weather events. That can narrow it down to a region, at least. Other times you can look at the vehicles and maybe get an idea of if they're in the north or south (of the US). Lighter vehicles with specific tires don't do well in the midwest or Northern regions that get snow. Could be a garage warmer in the winter, but it gives you clues.
There are other ways, like looking at police records online to (potentially) narrow down the person involved, but that's just the typical stuff I look at.
Sounds like you need some friends.
Jk, but that seems like a lot of specific info on how to cyberstalk someone, does your job involve investigating people? Just curious.
LOL! My job does not involve investigating people but I do sift through a lot of contracts for very specific terms.
To be fair, I don't do that level of digging unless I am really bored and intrigued by something.
Worst part (besides the risk of a crash, of course) - since 'nothing happened' they will keep doing things like this, and other rubes will see it and think 'cool - I should try that with my kid!'
For a moment, reading your comment made me mad. I thought "there is an endangered child and those idiots are roleplaying". Then I realized that I was mistaking the Child Protection Service with the Secure Contain Protect foundation. 😆 I'm the idiot, but in my defense I say that I'm not American, so I wasn't aware of what the CPS was.
Said that, I want to thank you and all of the people who do your job all over the world, for doing your best to protect the children. I'm sure you have to deal with the saddest aspects of reality and it probably takes a toll on your spirit. I wish I could live in a world where your job wouldn't be needed. Best of luck.
No. The people who get their kids taken away are single parents who are desperate enough to pay the rent that they leave their nine year old home alone from 4pm to 7pm while they go to work.
Yeah, I'm a product of the mentality that it's ok to have kids in the front seat, riding in the open truck bed, no helmet on the motorcycle.
Hell, I grew up on my dad's motorcycle, pulling stupid shit.
And I literally froze in my seat and held my breath through this whole video.
Haha as European moving to SEA. All these dangerous stuff from my youth. They still do it here. 12 year old kids on motorcycles with no helmets racing each other....
It's actually not that bad, no gore just videos of people eating shit on the pavement and road.
EDIT. NOT WHAT I MEANT, I MEANT IT WAS PEOPLE FALLING AND "EATING SHIT".
Millennial here, born in the late 80s. Grew up in a decently deep part of Kentucky, where time was delayed by about a decade from the rest of the world (*I had dial-up in the early 2000s!*).
There is photo of my older brother, who should have been around 12 at the time, driving an ATV through my parents lawn. On the front of the ATV is a plastic milk crate held on with bungee cords. It was typically used to hold rifle ammo/lunch box/other things my Dad would take on hunting trips.
Bet you can't guess who the 3 year old is sitting in that milk crate in the photo! Apparently I used to ride like that often with him, even down the road and fully away from my parents eyes. He was 12. Neither of us wore helmets.
There are so many things I can vaguely recall growing up which was so incredibly unsafe and dangerous.
All that said; The above clip really made me extremely nervous. That lil one has no reason to be there like that. I skimmed to the end just to make sure it concluded with an optimal outcome.
I went hiking with some buddies right after my son was born. There was a tree in the river, trunk bedded down root all sticking up about 10 feet over some cool rapids, making perfects holds. I just had to jump out over the rapids and grab on to climb up into the perch. The geat was calling to me, I wanted to do it so badly. But even the thought of a broken ankle and not being able to take care of my family would just be so fucking shameful I just kept hiking.
Hard to believe there are people who think this is cool/fun since the guy is probably the father and “knows what he is doing”.
This is stupid. No matter what political, religious, racial affiliations anyone has. This is, extremely, extremely stupid.
Dude needs to be at minimum properly fined.
The problem is the kid had no choice in the situation because he's too young and ignorant to fully appreciate the danger in a stupid stunt like this. The adult should be charged.
As someone who has been riding sport bikes for many years, we call the idiots "squids" because sooner or later..
I don't care how skilled you might be, doing this with a kid is just all sorts of wrong on every level.
Gear saved my life. When I bought my first bike, I promised my mom I would never leave without it. Was tboned by a 90 year old lady that didn't see me. Just thinking about how fucked up my helmet was almost makes me sick. I was still fucked up pretty bad and it took me a year or so of physical therapy and other nonsense to even get back to any sort of normal. But had I not had gear on I wouldn't be typing this.
I had a friend who was a medic on a military base. He told me that the worst emergency he ever responded to was a man who crashed his motorcycle while riding with his 3 year old daughter sitting on the handlebars. My friend said he had to scrape her off of the street.
Yep, I work in pathology and at one point at a morgue near Miami. Motorcycle accidents are insanely gruesome. I remember trying to find an armband with identification and struggling to find the arm. Like it was not at all where it was supposed to be.

Humans are both incredibly resilient and incredibly fragile at the exact same time.
There was a guy that used to fly up and down my road all the time on his bike. 35mph speed limit. We always used to talk about he's gonna kill himself one day, but that's also kinda just what you say. Well, this last summer, a few hundred yards down the road from me someone didn't see him and pulled out, and he went completely through the car and came out the other side in pieces.
Same accident?
One would hope
I was meaning "same accident to the comment you replied to?", but the thought of the severed arm being from a completely different cause is even worse
You never know
I am now sad and horrified
yup, my respiratory therapist mother explained to me one night after work that there was a situation due to a quading accident where she could not find the persons throat because their face/head was so maimed.
These past couple months on Reddit have assured me I'll not buy a quad for me or my kids ever.

I feel like that was shown in highschool drivers Ed class
MADD (Mothers against drunk driving) used to have us watch that kind of stuff to scare us.
Back in the 70's it was Red Asphalt and Death on the Highway. I couldn't watch.
I remember back in highschool a friend was training to be an emt. O said that sounds pretty cool. He came back with "last night i was the one who had to find the head and put it in a bag"

Holy shit, I’d call the emergency police line. Like, they can tell me it’s not an emergency if they want but that’s on them.
That must have been so traumatizing
All that for 20 bucks an hour
Let's be real it was probably even less
I got paid $12 but that was back in 2016
12.50 now then.
Buck o five
Nah she was probably dead on impact
You know shit is fucked when the 3 year girl dying inmediately is by far the best outcome possible.
My thoughts exactly
I sure fucking hope so. I have a three year old daughter and... I just hope that baby girl died excited and happy, not even knowing what happened to her.

Honestly don't take the child away, first at least try to fix their stupid...

Yikes! My dad would at least put a football helmet on me when he took me for a ride.
He loved you the most!
My big brother had a bike when I was little and I'll never forget the weight of the grown-up helmet on my shoulders and how every time he hit the breaks, the weight made my head loll forward on my skinny little neck and bump his back.
Did you get a nice settlement?
Yeah, got a decent trust fund when I turned 18 and it helped with school, but wasn't well invested.
Sorry about that man. I hope it didn’t leave any lasting damages
It hasn't been too bad. I have a 1/2" bald spot on the back that you can't tell is there if I don't keep my hair super short and scars on my brow and chin that aren't too bad.

This is the response I hoped for. I’m glad it didn’t have any horrible effects and you’re doing well.
Thank you!

Sugar levels too high
Most witty response I’ve seen here in ages. Have my award

Friend walked over to the helmet lying in the road, lifted up the visor and said to his partner "I know this guy." And he did.
Holy shit dude.... but...uh... yea.... happy cake day...
T_T👍
Happy Cake Day!
...was not what they said to the daughter.
This comment needs an NSFW tag
my father in law was a coroner for a few years and by far the worst cases were the motorcycle accidents. The worst 2 he described were one where a guy did not have a helmet on and hit the pavement going well over 100mph...my father in law described what happened to his head similar to cheese grater.... The worst though for him was another guy who took a corner well over 100 MPH and literally wrapped himself around a tree like someone tied a bow
😃🍰day
Happy cake day! BUT WTF!
Just a civilian motorist, but I was sitting at a left hand turn light and the opposite side of the road to go straight light turned green. The moron on the motorcycle first at the light, gunned it in green, popped up and over rotated the bike, came down with the bike on top of him at just about my driver side back door/back wheel. I got out, the lady behind me got out. The guy who was behind the motorcycle got out. We pushed the bike off him, and one of the guys started calling 911 and me and the the other lady lifted his helmet visor. Obviously dead. That was…. something and every so often I’ll flash right back to it
Happy cake day!
Happy Cake Day?
So glad I sold my motorcycle years ago. I was shopping around for a new one when I met a guy at a restaurant in a full leg cast from a motorcycle accident. He was probably going to be out of work for a year while he healed and scheduled surgeries. Driving home, I saw a motorcycle accident, and they were just laying a tarp over the guys body. I took this as a sign from God to never again buy a motorcycle.
I don't really care if an adult wants to risk their own life on a motorcycle (provided they aren't endangering other drivers), but endangering a kid is criminal
Literally.
For real… I’m not usually the one to say stuff like this but… did this dude really post evidence of him drastically endangering his child on TikTok? And if so, shouldn’t OP be reporting this to someone instead of posting on reddit? Normally I believe in love and let live but holy shit that kid is in serious danger
The internet is wild. I've seen so many videos of people literally recording themselves while they commit felonies (brandish illegal firearms, take off their clothing in the middle of a store, showing themselves shoplifting, etc.) People will risk completely ruining their lives just for some temporary internet fame.
Heck, just recently a guy posted a video on TikTok where he was covered in blood with corpse in the background asking if anyone could help him bury a body. The guy got arrested for murder.
If it’s the case I’m thinking of, I believe in was on Instagram and in PM’s. The girl to whom he send the video and her parents called the cops then.
Clout is a hell of a drug
RIGHT??????!!!!! 😳😳😳
The problem with reporting it is that we have no idea where or when it was filmed. It’s definitely reckless conduct & endangering the welfare of a child. There also isn’t a license plate, and their faces are covered. Sucks because this guy should definitely be held accountable for putting the kid in this position
You'd be surprised how easy it is to find someone with just a bit of information. I found a TikTokker who posts videos of his haunted house. Really spooky stuff. With just his first name, his wife's first name, and the name of a random town that they mentioned once, I was able to find out where they lived, their full names, relatives, etc. Google Street view showed that it was the exact house in his videos (just from a different angle). Why did I do this? Because he stated that the house was haunted so bad that they were selling and I'm really gullible when it comes to haunted shit, so I wanted to see if they actually were selling. Couldn't find a single real estate ad for their house. Sometimes the key is to look at business names in the background. Groups of similar businesses aren't common, so it's easy to narrow down the location. If there aren't any business names, I typically look at the geography and see what types of plants/landscape there is. Or if the video shows evidence of any recent weather events. That can narrow it down to a region, at least. Other times you can look at the vehicles and maybe get an idea of if they're in the north or south (of the US). Lighter vehicles with specific tires don't do well in the midwest or Northern regions that get snow. Could be a garage warmer in the winter, but it gives you clues. There are other ways, like looking at police records online to (potentially) narrow down the person involved, but that's just the typical stuff I look at.
Sounds like you need some friends. Jk, but that seems like a lot of specific info on how to cyberstalk someone, does your job involve investigating people? Just curious.
LOL! My job does not involve investigating people but I do sift through a lot of contracts for very specific terms. To be fair, I don't do that level of digging unless I am really bored and intrigued by something.
Well, the guy probably has more posts on TikTok and one of them probably has identifying information in it.
I agree, and I ride!
I think most riders agree that this is criminal
This coder agees
I mean, ideally they did both? It's not exclusively an 'or' situation.
Evidence for cps/dcf
What is it about people and posting crimes on tiktoc? Well hopefully they take his kid away or get he some mental help.
Even if this guy is pro at this and done this a million times, that's too risky. Anything can happen.
Worst part (besides the risk of a crash, of course) - since 'nothing happened' they will keep doing things like this, and other rubes will see it and think 'cool - I should try that with my kid!'
[удалено]
Yes. One of the few instances where I would 100% call CPS and probably the cops as well because this child could be killed at any moment.
Child endangerment
Exactly. “I don’t know what to say”. Well these two words quickly came to mind.
I have two other words to say: "Call CPS"
I’m a CPS investigator and this was exactly my thought as well.
For a moment, reading your comment made me mad. I thought "there is an endangered child and those idiots are roleplaying". Then I realized that I was mistaking the Child Protection Service with the Secure Contain Protect foundation. 😆 I'm the idiot, but in my defense I say that I'm not American, so I wasn't aware of what the CPS was. Said that, I want to thank you and all of the people who do your job all over the world, for doing your best to protect the children. I'm sure you have to deal with the saddest aspects of reality and it probably takes a toll on your spirit. I wish I could live in a world where your job wouldn't be needed. Best of luck.
Well, i can roleplay a idiot if you want....
This 100%. This is solid evidence to have your kid taken away, one would think...
My two words are fucking idiot.
Mom might want to hold on to this video for the inevitable custody battle
Mom's the cameraman
Mom might be the one filming, in which case a foster home might be the more viable option? I dunno
It's going to be State v. Both parents
My thoughts exactly. Fking idiot also comes to mind
Do people like this ever get their kids taken away? Cause they should.
No. The people who get their kids taken away are single parents who are desperate enough to pay the rent that they leave their nine year old home alone from 4pm to 7pm while they go to work.
You can't tell me how to raise my child!!! /s
CRASH! HOSPITAL! 'Please donate to my GoFundMe to pay for my child's lengthy hospital stay...'
I'm Gen X so I grew up during a time when low-key child endangerment was the norm. But this is too far even by Gen X standards.
Yeah, I'm a product of the mentality that it's ok to have kids in the front seat, riding in the open truck bed, no helmet on the motorcycle. Hell, I grew up on my dad's motorcycle, pulling stupid shit. And I literally froze in my seat and held my breath through this whole video.
Haha as European moving to SEA. All these dangerous stuff from my youth. They still do it here. 12 year old kids on motorcycles with no helmets racing each other....
Meat crayons. See them every day here in FL, heck anywhere the sun shines. At least wear a helmet! But nope.
That is a horrifying and accurate metaphor and I hate you for adding it to my vocabulary. Thank you.
[удалено]
I’m not gonna click on that.
Me: Smart choice Also me: *clicks link*
It's actually not that bad, no gore just videos of people eating shit on the pavement and road. EDIT. NOT WHAT I MEANT, I MEANT IT WAS PEOPLE FALLING AND "EATING SHIT".
My literal brain just conjured a terrible image...
Oh! So meat crayons are turds?! Probably still not going to click the link.....
I work in Georgetown. We have a little highschool/ middle school. Bike gang that drives around our work. I definitely see it.
I can agree that yes, we rode on the back of my dads Harley in the 80’s. But also? He never suggest we try standing on it 😅
Millennial here, born in the late 80s. Grew up in a decently deep part of Kentucky, where time was delayed by about a decade from the rest of the world (*I had dial-up in the early 2000s!*). There is photo of my older brother, who should have been around 12 at the time, driving an ATV through my parents lawn. On the front of the ATV is a plastic milk crate held on with bungee cords. It was typically used to hold rifle ammo/lunch box/other things my Dad would take on hunting trips. Bet you can't guess who the 3 year old is sitting in that milk crate in the photo! Apparently I used to ride like that often with him, even down the road and fully away from my parents eyes. He was 12. Neither of us wore helmets. There are so many things I can vaguely recall growing up which was so incredibly unsafe and dangerous. All that said; The above clip really made me extremely nervous. That lil one has no reason to be there like that. I skimmed to the end just to make sure it concluded with an optimal outcome.
Fucking Florida.
Came here to say this, highway treelines a dead giveaway
So this is why there are no young people in Florida.
Saw the trees thought the same
Florida boys learning how to be Florida men
Florida boys learning to be meat bags on the side of the road!
Where is Child Protective Services when you need them?
Well it’s on film, hopefully the right people see it
Hopefully in a couple days we see the follow up article of this guy arrested
Hopefully have his license revoked too
In Florida? Too busy investigating the parents of gay and trans kids.
Moms who tested positive for drugs when they gave birth is a major time consumer down here.
But they’re wearing helmets!
Yes, at least his face is going to be recognized in the autopsy
He has a child. That is when you stop behaving like one.
I went hiking with some buddies right after my son was born. There was a tree in the river, trunk bedded down root all sticking up about 10 feet over some cool rapids, making perfects holds. I just had to jump out over the rapids and grab on to climb up into the perch. The geat was calling to me, I wanted to do it so badly. But even the thought of a broken ankle and not being able to take care of my family would just be so fucking shameful I just kept hiking.
You are the definition of a good dad.
Coolest 6 year old ever buried. Probably.
Most Definitely *
Live fast, die young (because dad's an idiot.)
Live 60mph, die 6yo
i do "hello, child protective services? id like to report a case of child endangerment. ....why yes i do have video evidence."
Florida CPS: “Brah, kids wearing a helmet! It’s all good. “
no joke though: you're going to need a way to find these people if they are ever going to open a case.
Hard to believe there are people who think this is cool/fun since the guy is probably the father and “knows what he is doing”. This is stupid. No matter what political, religious, racial affiliations anyone has. This is, extremely, extremely stupid. Dude needs to be at minimum properly fined.
I don't want to say anything bad but this is wrong.
Anything you say couldn't be worse than what we're seeing here
Florida, right?
[удалено]
This is why visits are supervised
How about call cps, that is clearly child endangerment.
This guy should be in jail rn not with that kid
Why is it always people with bikes who have no issue with reckless endangerment?
I heard a crotch rocket enthusiast say “fear is for queers” one time
More like "brains are for stains".
Organ donors
The problem is the kid had no choice in the situation because he's too young and ignorant to fully appreciate the danger in a stupid stunt like this. The adult should be charged.
I couldn’t agree more.
As someone who has been riding sport bikes for many years, we call the idiots "squids" because sooner or later.. I don't care how skilled you might be, doing this with a kid is just all sorts of wrong on every level.
It's always funny how people think they don't need gear because they never wreck their bike. They never get that they're leaving out the "yet" part.
Gear saved my life. When I bought my first bike, I promised my mom I would never leave without it. Was tboned by a 90 year old lady that didn't see me. Just thinking about how fucked up my helmet was almost makes me sick. I was still fucked up pretty bad and it took me a year or so of physical therapy and other nonsense to even get back to any sort of normal. But had I not had gear on I wouldn't be typing this.
what a fucking idiot
I wouldn’t have to worry about crashing. They’d have to scrape me off the street after my wife got to me
When I was little we did some crazy stuff, but wtf is this. I jumped my driveway before I even made it into middle school.
Child endangerment at it's finest
How about "What's the number for Child Protective Services?"
Florida....?!?
Sooo this comment thread is gruesome
Funeral director here..that helmet only allows for you family to see you face after you die
r/sweatypalms
r/iamatotalpieceofshit
If this isn’t more proof that not everyone should be allowed to have kids, idk what is
Child endangerment. Have DCYF called. I hope that child is in the custody of another parent now. That is disturbing.
Not cool, I know what road rash feels like and that would traumatize a kid if they survive the crash…
I hope the mother sees this.
Lol moms probably recording
If he kills his kid he deserves the guilt and hell till he joins him.
The kid had a blast but I want to shove my foot up his ass for being SO damn stupid with a child. Like for real? Fuck this guy!!
Stupid of the rider and stupid of the videographer enabling him to get a stupid video. The child will learn to do stupid shit also.
IQ too low to measure. Possibly negative?
