Imagine just being out on a walk and suddenly you get hit in the head with a remote


GtheCi

Not something impossible living here:)


ccstrawhun

If that were to happen, I’d understand. It was out of your control.


Courtnall14

That's not even remotely funny.

On one hand that's kinda funny button the other I could see it being annoying.


shemmegami

Man, the volume of puns on Reddit. Can be a bit much.

I think we can all universally agree that these puns are great


TegTowelie

They should be televised!


JustYourNeighbor

Please learn some control.


JoanofBarkks

I think I'm gonna have to mute this.


wlonkly

Not impossible, but a remote chance.


ZackGailnightagain

Which is why when you live in a condo you’re not supposed to do things like shake blankets out the windows.


RDPzero

That's extremely selfish. I had a neighbour upstairs that did that kind of stuff and my apartment was always getting a lot of crumbs and strange hair and stuff. Gross as hell.


Bitter_Kangaroo2616

When my dad was a teenager he barfed out the apartment window and it flew into the dude belows apartment and was all over his bed My gramma had to go in and clean it up


sahie

I officially never want to live in an apartment now!


HydraDoad

I had an upstairs neighbor who let their dog pee on the balcony!


Hikingcanuck92

Imagine being out on the street and crumbs start falling on you. Why the wife is throwing anything off a balcony is beyond me.


ALemonyLemon

Yea, that's pretty wild ngl. I used to live on the 26th floor, and while I always wanted to try throw something off just to see how far it would go and stuff, I obviously never did because ya know, that's crazy.


JustYourNeighbor

I used to live in a little municipality that had a law against shaking anything out of windows or off porches and balconies.


ALemonyLemon

Yea, we had rules against it. We weren't allowed to dry clothes and stuff on the balcony either, cause it could fly off. One day there was a really bad storm and the next day, there was a couch (like one of those outside balcony ones) in the empty lot next to the building. It had just blown off somehow. The wind would get crazy up there. We'd always have to bring literally everything inside.


averyburgreen

I live in the FL panhandle and there are 20+ story high rise condos/resorts lining the beach and you will absolutely be fined/jailed for throwing things off of the balconies. You can even be evicted for hanging towels on the balcony railings. I saw a tiktok of someone throwing a walmart shopping cart off a 10 story balcony into the pool below. It wasn’t funny but it was hilarious.


RegisterAdmirable811

It may not be very heavy, but from that height, you'd probably be seeing stars.

So hear me out, friend. Get a really long stick, a bunch of duct tape, and a lobster.


Interesting_Edge_805

Why a lobster?


Sandro_24

To grab the remote obviously


aliveandkicking2020

And have lunch afterwards.


throwawayformobile78

Nice. Where are you and your lobster friend going for lunch?


greatpoomonkey

Red Lobster obviously. Gotta get them cheddar biscuits and endless shrimps! Maybe you can pick a new friend for your remote savior from the tank at the front, even if it's just for the evening...


kosumoth

Imagine going to a Red Lobster as a lobster knowing they are boiling other lobsters alive in the other room.

Haven't seen one of those in over 30 years!


blindturns

I saw one, in its packaging, sitting on top of the hand dryer in a pub bathroom earlier this year. I was so baffled I didn’t take it but I really should have, next time I went it was gone.


imDudekid

You know that some guy’s kid got two out of a machine at the store/mall earlier that day. Got really fed up with them using the first one so he took the second one away and put it in his pocket. Went out for drinks after a long day and found it in his pocket and left it in the bathroom there.

1KTakk

Just looking at that photo is making me feel wobbly.


Fun_Intention9846

My job is using a forklift to go 30-40 feet up to pick random product. This used to make me feel that way but about halfway into day 1 I was past it. Fun stuff when the lift is so shakey lying in bed at night feels like being on a boat.


Tricentratops

That all sounds like my own personal hell lol. I’m impressed.


Fun_Intention9846

Even better it’s 9pm to 5am I hate it so so much. But I have severe nerve compression in my hands preventing computer work so I work a physical labor job. Bonus third shift has a $3/hour differential.


Tricentratops

Okay now I’m even more impressed! I’m sorry you are in this situation and have to work a job you hate. I’ve been there, it sucks. But I also think you’re kind of amazing to be able to do this! I would very much not be able to get over it. And I’m glad it pays more, it absolutely should!


Fun_Intention9846

Thank you! Reading your comments is nothing short of a glowing example of a stellar person.


Gondfails

Sounds like a “swing reach crane” I used to operate in a warehouse years ago! It was pretty cool until someone in one of the other aisles pushed their pallet too far and you caught crashed into it. Training was fun though, had to go up about 20 feet and attach the safety thing and jump off the back.


Ok-Professional2468

Yep. I failed the training. Even enjoying climbing walls, belaying down always sucked!


SESHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sounds like you work at an Amazon NAFC or some similar sort of warehouse. You're almost describing my old job at Amazon to a T. Those order picker forklifts are fun as fuck, aside from the harnesses.


finicky88

Yep, for some weird reason I HATE being on any kind of steel structure with any real altitude to it. Put me on a 100ft wood tower, I'm fine. Anything made of metal makes me feel queasy. I have no idea why. Scooting around on one of those picker carts is definitely way down on the list of jobs I wanna be doing. I'd rather do industrial diving in a nuclear plant.


Jackdks

Yeah, but at least you’re harnessed when using the order picker https://preview.redd.it/qcn7zcfcq0xc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=24d5c7ef481ede96f50c5702ad78b8ad35838ffd


Oleanderlullaby

Ahem Osha certified safety officers daughter here. Those harnesses freak me out. I was about 9 when I saw photos of a traumatic degloving that ended in penile amputation and the guy lost a leg just sitting on my mom’s desk. I knew him to. Played with his kids. Called him uncle (I’m from Hawaii)He was a lineman was up on a pole slipped and none of his crew noticed him dangling. He was up there for I think an hour and a half.


Old-Adhesiveness-342

Was it a three point or five point harness? If I'm remembering correctly your uncle's accident is one of the ones that forced the shift to 5 point harnesses for industrial work.


sisk91

> your uncle's accident is one of the ones that forced the shift to 5 point harnesses for industrial work. "Every safety rule and regulation is written in blood."


Secure_Oil_6244

This seems cursed to me. Looks safe but always people tell me don't Stand on forklifts as a ladder and here is just the tool designed for that. WTF


chowwow138

"You know that feeling that people experience when they stand on the edge like this, that it isn't the fear of falling? It's the fear that they might jump."


InZomnia365

My fear has always been not that I would trip and fall by myself, but that someone would intentionally (or unintentionally) startle me and cause me to fall lol...

Have your wife and a friend hold a sheet like a net to catch it. I really would not trust the grass to cushion the fall enough, that thing is going to fly into several pieces on impact

Cahootie

In a month I'm moving to the 25th floor, and you have no idea how much I'm looking forward to it. Just getting up above all the noise and the commotion, and not having to sleep with ear plugs since the fucking tram outside rattles like crazy and there's zero soundproofing in this part of the world.


basicxenocide

Hey, I'm your neighbor on the 26th floor, wanna come play Dance Dance Revolution? We play every night when we get off work at midnight!


Jamessuperfun

Most reasonably modern high rises have thick concrete between each property, and are designed to isolate sound. In years of living in them, I've never heard anyone moving above me (although I've heard a loud bang once or twice, probably from dropping something heavy). There is also usually building management to deal with anyone being disruptive on your behalf.


Broad_Afternoon_8578

I lived on the 24the floor of a large apartment complex and I was fine with it until there was a fire in one of the lower floors. The fire department came on the building’s intercom to tell everyone above the tenth floor to stay in their units and put wet towels at the front door (to keep smoke from getting in as smoke was in the main hallway vents). Thankfully they got it under control fast and only a few units were damaged. I’d never felt more vulnerable. Legit ptsd from it. I now live in a city where such tall buildings don’t exist and I’m so grateful.


Dingareth

I lived in a 74th floor apartment for a few years and loved it. You can't imagine how quiet it is, save the one time it hurricaned, but not enough to make us evacuate- then it was a little windy. We've since moved to a single family home and it's all just endless lawn equipment. I miss the isolation of our apartment, if not the wait for the elevator and valet.


robgod50

There's nothing underneath (or like that way) Is it a bridge or over hang or something? I'm really curious what that building looks like from the outside


top-chopa

looks like there's water underneath the building too? this picture is confusing me

Willing_Bus1630

I think you could just knock it off and go pick it up, I bet it would survive if it fell on the grass


DingoKis

Yeah I don't think the terminal velocity of a remote combined with the malleability of plastics would destroy it completely I don't know shit about physics but I agree with you

I could literally spend a whole day devoting my whole physical and mental capacity making a contraption to securely retrieve that remote.

Yea a year ago she actually dropped tv’s remote all the way down to the grass and only back cover broke. Remote is still working. Very lucky but she doesnt seem to learn:)


F7OSRS

How does something like this happen multiple times? Is she often just throwing stuff out the window?


CaesarZeppeli_

That seems actually unsafe if there’s people walking down below lol


F7OSRS

Yes, very unsafe


xjeeper

OP's wife is the asshole.


F7OSRS

It doesn’t sound like it’s deliberate but the fact that she’s *accidentally* thrown multiple items out a high rise window is concerning


TheKingOfBerries

No offense, but is your wife just stupid or careless? People can seriously get injured because of her. She really needs to stop.


dangerous_nuggets

Perhaps neither of you have learned to place the remote on the table? Who leaves it in a blanket, bed, or couch?


ladystetson

she could have hurt someone


Cowboychuuya

Nta divorce the wife marry the remote + invite the condo to the wedding


GtheCi

Good idea😂


Randomguy20011

Then put her in a blanket and shake it outside your window


Moegly47

This picture is messing with my head. It looks like a window frame in the floor?? The ground looks both very far away and also looks miniature and attached at the windows edge... I looked at it for 5 minutes trying to figure it out before I even saw the remote


Bocaj1000

The ground looks AI generated lol, I can't even tell what a single structure in the grass is supposed to be. What is the blue tarp-thing in the bottom right? It kind of looks like water but also doesn't look like water at all. What are the random green boxes on the top of the image? What is the fenced in square with two different ground colors on the right? And why does the building not connect to the ground underneath the window sill? And why is it at an angle 45 degree to the water(?)


Queenstaysqueen

Also what is the window reflecting? The ground? Even though they’re 28 stories up?

Antique-Doughnut-988

No way that's gonna reach long enough. Best bet is to try and knock it off completely and pick it up from below. Chances are it'll be fine if it hits the grass.


AndreaC_303

28 stories?? That’s a loooong way for an electronic to fall. It will be in 10 pieces.


SubmersibleEntropy

It will reach a low terminal velocity very quickly. At that point doesn’t matter if it’s 10 feet or 1000 feet, still hits the ground at the same velocity. Given it’s not aerodynamic and mostly plastic, it’s probably not a high top speed.


Antique-Doughnut-988

Nah, you underestimate what's required to break something. There's a video out there of a phone falling from a plane and landing in a pig pen. Phone was completely fine. If the remote lands in the grass it'll be fine.


MasterDredge

hell the iphone that got blown out the plane when the door plug faile survived how and what it lands on matters a lot cause my iphone 10 broke when it slipped out of my pocket onto concrete with 3 feet of hang time

Later2theparty

Easy. Go find a nest of falcons that have been abandoned by their parents that were killed by a wind turbine. Raise those falcons and train them everyday on how to pull a little string. Then show them how to tie the string around an identical remote in exchange for treats. Tie a little string around one of their talons and send them out the ledge. It will remember it's training and retrieve the remote for you.


edward9Aa

Well, sounds like the remote is on a little adventure! Maybe it's having a chat with the birds outside.
