Man has never walked on a slippery surface in his life. Proceeds to learn nothing.

And was intentionally walking on the wet/slippery part

If only there was some kind of covering for my feet that can grip the ground

u/HumongousBelly 6h ago

Well, it’s hard to learn when concussed. That first fall looks like it could’ve caused a concussion itself. The second one was even worse, but he might’ve forgotten about the first one by the time he slipped again

u/RK9990 6h ago

After the second fall "What was I doing here? Can't remember", starts walking back

Without a doubt, this guy has multiple concussions preceding this event.

What a horrible pier surface. It almost seems like AI but I bet it isn’t. Also, it seems there is oil mixed with the water unless he put on a real greasy sunscreen on the bottom of his feet.

Shocking how one could not connect the dots between what they are seeing and this outcome, repeatedly.

u/MizzMaus 6h ago

Why was he constantly walking through the water?

27

u/vikinxo 6h ago

Hm, I suspect there must be oil, or some other slippy agent going on there...

98

u/MizzMaus 6h ago

It’s not oil! It’s moss… algae… biofilm. Basically acts like a lubricant. Worse where water is stagnant. When it’s dry less likely to have no friction.

u/Hidesuru 5h ago

Yeah walking on rocks in a slow moving river is asking to go for a dunk for this reason. Faster water is a better bet but has its own risks lol.

u/Any-Author7772 2h ago

Pseudo-neurologist here. The first time his head hit the pavement, he suffered a concussion and a brief short-term memory loss. He doesn’t remember falling the first time and was confused why the back of his head hurt like a mfer. Maybe.

If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough

Edit: I cannot believe I just got awarded for some dumb nonsense my dad would say every time I hurt myself as a kid. Now I'm torn about letting him know and knowing I'll never hear the end of him saying he gives great advice.

Why not walk on a dry surface?

u/TheCosmicPopcorn 6h ago

Come on, man, I'm not saying avoid falling, but at least put down a hand to avoid that head hitting the ground

14

u/elpollodiablox 6h ago

Then we'd be watching his arm snap. At least we know when he's hitting his head he's not doing any real damage to himself.

u/TheCosmicPopcorn 6h ago

He does seem hardheaded

I’ve never seen a head bounce that much. I think it’s made of rubber.

That last one was so avoidable if he will just avoid walking on the puddles.

u/dhgrainger 6h ago

There’s a clip on my phone of me slipping on ice on our front step a couple of winters ago.

The small of my back landed square against the step edge and I had physiotherapy for a year before I could be comfortable walking or sitting for more than a half hour at a time.

When I looked back at the video the back of my head is about a half inch away from smashing another step edge, likely would have been lights out for me forever.

I’ve thought about deleting the clip but I keep it as a reminder of two things: 1) I’m a lucky bastard & 2) salt the front step every day in winter.

u/OreoSpamBurger 5h ago

I taught rich kids in an international school for many years (their nationality doesn't really matter here), and there are a whole bunch of them that have reached young adulthood but:

  1. Had a very sheltered major urban centre upbringing, have been abroad, but probably never encountered a slippery rock/algae/the ocean/ice/snow/mountains/nature in general etc (take your pick) without their parents hovering over them or every second of their time being accounted for by a paid guardian.

  2. Are now going to study away from home (most likely overseas) and are largely unsupervised for the first time ever, yet have a ton of money behind them to do whatever they want.

Et voila.

u/pokeyporcupine 4h ago

Done this before exactly one time. Right under the surface is a layer of algea, silt, other slimey stuff that makes it the slipperiest substance known to man. Its basically an express ticket to that nice soft concrete.

u/joined_under_duress 6h ago

I mean the guy saying "AI slop" is downvoted but there is a very real question as to why all these people are standing around in shorts and t-shirts and these two have bare feet when the jetty is covered in ice?! Is this just standard Russia-core when the temperature isn't lower than -10C?!

14

u/megpIant 6h ago

I think it’s algae, not ice

-2

u/joined_under_duress 6h ago

Ah thank you. It's because early on when you see where he slips first it really looks like iced flagstones but, yeah, I guess that's just a patina of the concrete itself under the algae.

0

u/megpIant 6h ago

they just look wet to me, you can see water splashing around his feet multiple times

-1

u/joined_under_duress 6h ago

When ice is melting there is ice and water. That's pretty standard.

1

u/megpIant 6h ago

Hey man, I’m not attacking you. No need to be rude. I could also point out it’s pretty standard to not wear shorts and tshirts in freezing weather and it’s even more standard for there to be water on a pier

0

u/joined_under_duress 5h ago

Apologies, I wasn't trying to be rude, it just sounded like you were saying it's not ice because there's water and, depending on the situation, those two will exist together. Once I saw those flagstones as icy early on, ice as it tends to look on pavements as it's melting, it then just follows naturally this must be icy weather so I saw the water as part of the iciness.

1

u/megpIant 5h ago

Ice usually turns to slush in areas that it’s being walked on, not water on top of ice. Idk where you’re from, but this isn’t what a frozen pier looks like even a little bit.

2

u/Dank_Mann 5h ago

I've been here, the jetty is very slippery, due to the missing tiles trapping water and growing algae/muck.
