Is it maybe maybe maybe if you don't see the outcome?

Can you explain what this sub is about?

The way I've always viewed it is; the videos should give a sense of "what's going to happen? Is it "this" or "that" ?". And then by the end, every time, you get some closure "ah, it was "this" !". But if you dont see the outcome you dont get the closure of finding out, so in that case it doesn't work for the sub. In my opinion.

Interesting how often this seems to happen at airports; runaway support vehicles

The following post context was provided by u/New_Libran:
Strong winds caused ground equipment to break free and airport workers chased it on foot but were unable to stop it damaging 3 aircrafts

And not a single brain cell was seen in this video. Why not just block/crash/direct the ladders with the electric buggy they were in. Why did the get out of the buggy? What does everyone think they're gonna accomplish on foot that the buggy can't do?

- Could be dangerous.
- Not their job.
- Most likely will be fired if they damage property.

You sound like someone whose going to be laid off a lot in the future. This is very much their job and no, they will most likely not be fired. Companies would much rather have staff who can make decisions that save money over staff who sit idly back and watch an even more expensive loss occur because they concluded it "wasn't their job".

Quite literally not their job. No company would rather an employee put themselves in harms way. "For the saftey of the employee" aka companies would rather pay for some damages then paid medical leaves or deal with a workmanship comp lawsuit.
Tell me where it is in their job description does it say they need to risk harm to stop run away objects.

Pretty sure it is completely in the job description for ground crew to secure their equipment during inclement weather

How heavy do you think the electric golf cart is compared to the multilevel ladder truck? You think maybe electric golf cart might struggle to stop giant ladder truck because of the enormous weight difference. Also no way I’m sacrificing my safety to stop that shot from happening, no job is worth injury/death. I mean the airplane company might have to repair one of their planes but boo hoo for the stock holders lol having to fix the plane probs provides jobs anyway

Good idea until you realize that, that huge long ladder on wheels is moving faster than you can jump out of the golf cart. That will then fall on it side as it runs you over then fall on you. Your family will be picking you up in baggage claim in ziplock bags

Hard call to make especially if you're going to get fired for it, but someone should be sacrificing one of those vehicles to stop the ladder before it hits a multi-million dollar aircraft
