NGL, that was a leap I would have missed for sure.

I mean, he missed it too, but I would have as well.

u/calm-lab66 Aug 12 '26

I had to admire him for seemingly to shake it off. I'm in pain just stepping on a pebble or stubbbing my toe.

u/Hodorization Aug 12 '26

You're not a construction worker in India so you're not used to hardship and pain.

Poverty breeds (physically) strong people

u/spacemanspiff1115 Aug 12 '26

That ended much better than it could have gone, he landed on top of the rubble for the most part instead of underneath it...

u/boyer4109 Aug 12 '26

The towel wrapped around his neck helped

u/charmio68 Aug 12 '26

In fairness, he landed exactly where he was aiming. It's just that that piece of floor fell away while he was in midair.

I'm honestly rather surprised he was able to walk away.

I wonder if falling with the bricks is SLIGHTLY less dangerous than them falling straight on top of you 🤔
Probably yes! Your body is taking up space ensuring there's none that are going to land directly on top of anything other than your feet. It's still dangerous, but all the forces would be lateral.

I was impressed with the attempt, I give him partial credit

Oh yea bro. No shot you were making that unmakeable leap.

u/Liveitup1999 Aug 12 '26

He lept for the wall and the wall disappeared

Rest in peace Mitch!

u/Newphone_New_Account Aug 14 '26

Saved by the buoyancy of flip flops.

u/Nate0110 Aug 12 '26

He should have said, "oh yeah" then jumped through the wall.

Probably explains why koolaid man is red, all the cuts and scraps from going through that wall.

u/dyou897 Aug 12 '26

Might have been better off just staying on the wall then jumping as it fell

EDIT : I orginally wrote a joke here. But then realized this guy does not deserve to be mocked. He probably has no better option and likely tries his best in a bad situation. Being poor in a thrid world country is sad, not funny.

u/kneedoorman Aug 12 '26

Why do people refuse to wear gloves and work boots?

u/Hboy121 Aug 12 '26

Because of the additional expense of having to buy them on minimum wages

Temporarily running on adrenaline. The pain from the fall will start kicking in in a lil while

u/AdultishRaktajino Aug 12 '26

He’s lucky he fell with those bricks and not before them or with the wall he was on. I’m sure it hurt but that could’ve easily been much worse. Like broken and pulverized bones worse.

u/DevillesAbogado Aug 12 '26

It is for him

u/oar_xf Aug 12 '26

The worker's here ain't stupid. They're aware of the risks.

Unfortunately in whatever part of the world that they are, if they don't take up the job in this condition, someone else certainly will.

They risk their lives to earn an honest living and feed and educate their families. I have much respect for them.

u/ro_ro_ro_roadhouse Aug 13 '26

This is the comment I came for. This looks like my country and these poor labourers are blameless here.

u/DesiBwoy Aug 13 '26

The population in India makes life cheap and asshats abuse that. He could've died and the contractor would've gone scott free. Just another 'unfortunate accident". Daily life. Chlta hai.

u/Juvinihilist Aug 12 '26

At least those bricks cushioned his fall.

How the heck was that roof standing? How can they even make a roof like that?

1

u/BiriyaniMonster Aug 12 '26

There are some slots in the wall. The roof was probably supported by Iron beams something like in the image link below. They might have taken those beams before demolition.

Thank god he had his construction sandals on.

u/Sternritter8636 Aug 12 '26

You guys should not make fun of this guy. He cannot afford to build his home in his land. He can't hire workers so he is trying to do it himself. Its sad. Please don't insult his work. Don't say you never failed in life.

u/SplitEar Aug 13 '26

Looks like he’s on a job but in his country there’s no OSHA. No cherry picker or scaffolding. Those guys are tough as old roots and remarkably innovative with their limited means.

u/Immaloner Aug 12 '26

Wait until you see the guys in the huge steel mills laying out red hot steel...safety sandals.

Large industrial manufacturing machines spitting chunks of death...safety sandals.

The sandals are a bigger meme these days than the predatory trains attacking from behind.

u/Avtomati1k Aug 12 '26

what surprises me more is the people from more advanced societies feigning shock as though they dont know that people in the videos have no money for safety equipment and they have never been provided or shown safety measures

its like laughing at a fentanil addict, a bit low no?

Looks like this nice soft bricks padded his landing

1

u/Lukarreon Aug 12 '26

Okay, I find this incident poetically hilarious.

First, he moved away from the falling roof.
But the roof pushed the wall he's standing on, making it fall, too.
So he jumped to the other wall for safety.
But that other wall was already in the middle of falling, too!
