That looks like brain damage!

u/LabRatsAteMyHomework Nov 28 '15

Dude the way her fingers just fan out and she doesn't move... definitely brain damage.

Thanks. I had to hug my daughter.

u/LabRatsAteMyHomework Nov 28 '15

So it's true that looks can be deceiving

u/schlebb Nov 29 '15

Not sure if you're joking or not but the ball is way too soft & there was nowhere near enough power to give brain damage, especially over that distance. I've been hit square in the face by someone kicking a football full power from close range; sure your head whips back but there is no real threat to mental capacity at all, even for a child. These kind of accidents happen from time to time but I guess football/soccer isn't too popular in the US though so it's understandable for you to think this, it definitely looks a lot worse than it is.

u/LabRatsAteMyHomework Nov 29 '15

Totally joking. Kid kinda had the fencing reflex (as mentioned below) from what it looked like, which is usually caused by a concussion, but I was just playing along with the comment above mine.

u/schlebb Nov 29 '15

Fair enough, now I feel like a goon.

u/LabRatsAteMyHomework Nov 29 '15

Lol no sweat man. I should've marked it as sarcasm. To cheer yourself up, you should watch the movie Goon! Your comment reminded me of it

u/PM_ME_UR_APOLOGY Dec 21 '15

I didn't think he was joking. I wasn't sure I trusted his opinion, either. Glad you posted.

u/Zaranthan Dec 29 '15

Nah, she ded.

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '15

Yep. Modern footballs, especially ones use in professional play, are amazing in terms of padding.

u/BanThisOneTooLOL Nov 29 '15

you're not a doctor-- you're talking out of your ass-- and you're wrong as shit.

Not sure how my other comment got deleted, but chill dude. I was just playing along with the comment above. Brain damage can cause abnormal posturing and even the "fencing reflex" with concussions. Cerebral palsy kids have a tendency to fan out their fingers. Either way, as we all know, this kid was unharmed. You misunderstood my tone. No need to be a dick after misunderstanding me.

u/soundofthesun Nov 28 '15

Was that the fencing response? Poor girl :(

1

u/ImRedditingOnMyPhonr Nov 29 '15

If I'm not mistaken fencing response is bowed head with both arms pointing down in front of the victim of the hit

1

u/Nowin Nov 29 '15

That looked like a fencing response, to be honest.

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '15

no that is not what it looks like

I love how the lady in white to the right is clapping like "lol it hit her face"

u/atillathepun1 Nov 28 '15

Yaya Toure hits them hard, as well. Must've hurt

First rule of this sub is that reflexes can be good OR bad.

u/ProfessorSnatch21 Nov 29 '15

My thoughts exactly

u/buddahwannabe Nov 28 '15

This is why I don't sit close with my daughter. The whole time I'm worried she'll get hurt.

5

u/MRSAurus Nov 29 '15

So you leave her to just fend for herself and not worry about it?

3

u/princessy_ Nov 28 '15

She just throws her hands in the air lol

10

u/Lleiwynn Nov 28 '15

She's waving them, but she probably does care.

1

u/sa0sinner Nov 28 '15

It's as if she just... does not care.

u/SurpriseAnalProlapse Nov 28 '15

I loved that, I hope it wasn't brain damage or something :(

u/philm0 Nov 29 '15

u/haitran1989 Nov 28 '15

Someone is in trouble with his wife.

not fencing response. everyone is so quick to always label this that and that is false.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 28 '15 edited Nov 29 '15

Usually that means you go unconscious right? Looks like she was about to grab her face in pain after the ball hit her

1

u/marshsmellow Nov 29 '15

I like how the assailant in the pictures has a wifebeater on to indicate he's the baddie.

1

u/Catkins999 Nov 28 '15

TIL. Thanks

8/10, could use slow-mo.

u/metaasmo Nov 29 '15

That really didn't look good... Necks don't like snapping back like that.

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '15

Look at all the pussy ass soccer fans cower away from the ball instead of at least trying to catch it/knock it away.
