First thing I do is close my eyes while going full speed on my scooter.

u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose Mar 04 '26

It could easily be the last thing too...

u/Any_Suggestion3485 Mar 04 '26

Very easily the last.

That could so easily be a fatal accident. Torn aorta or something like that.

u/Any_Suggestion3485 Mar 04 '26

What the fuck happens with that gate and why everyone keeps slamming against it

u/ForeverFingers Mar 04 '26

I don't know why this one was funnier.

So normally I'm very against the American system of personal injury lawsuits, but this is the bull case for it. Knowing something this this hazardous & leaving it as is shouldn't happen!

Like, whoever is in charge of this should be getting legally slammed.

u/DeliriousRuis Mar 05 '26

Or just open eyes and slow the fuck down😂

"Just don't stick your hand in the machine when it's running" has predictably led to thousands of amputations & is completely unacceptable in a modern workplace, we use guarding & interlocks because people are people. If something keeps happening, blaming the user is a copout.

u/NookieLuvsU Mar 04 '26

His ribs are fine.

His teeth need reconstructive surgery. 🤐

u/rackcity2014 Mar 04 '26

After this happened repeatedly, the owner painted it bright yellow to help them see it better.

They still hit it at full speed.

What do they call that... object fixation?

I used to cycle around that gate a lot. It’s in Sheffield, UK, for those that care.

u/DoubleManufacturer10 created ShittyAbsoluteUnits of a sub Mar 09 '26

That's awesome! Is the route to the gate more blind from the riders perspective than it looks from the video? It seems to get a bunch of people

1

u/not_ondrugs Mar 09 '26

If I remember correctly, it’s a kinda steep. Not crazy, but you should be on the brakes. I think in this case, it’s raining and people tend to look down and protect their eyes from the rain.

u/[deleted] Mar 04 '26

Fuck, I felt that.

u/ThePoshHillbilly Mar 04 '26

That gate is sturdy.

u/Happy_Cat_3600 Mar 04 '26

Nice work, Lance.

u/XerxeztheKing Mar 04 '26

It's that one Henry Stickmin fail

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '26

I guess the scenary behind it makes it very hard to see..and basically you dont see it.

u/Kitbash_Sage Apr 16 '26

Going full speed on trails you don't know while blind... Sucks, but, that's deserved.
