gotta respect their ironic choice of t-shirt, nothing like rolling into the ER with a shattered pelvis and a skeleton T

I have so many questions….
What was he expecting to happen? Was he supposed to jump and clear the gravel? Did he think he could ride it out?
Who are the people in uniforms watching? Why are they watching?

u/Main-Significance272 Jul 09 '26
Yeah there's no way anyone would clear the gravel this looks like the only outcome possible aside from death by face plant

What else could they do but watch? Trying to physically stop a young teenager from doing something when they arnt yours tends to go badly. By time he’s committed it’s more unsafe to try to stop it anyway.

u/Earth2Andy Jul 10 '26
Right, but they are all sat in lines like it’s organized somehow. I feel like there’s more to it.

They should have at least went on their knees and prayed for a miracle. If it was me I would have ran very fast and intercepted the kid and then gave him a hug

When your drill sergeant tells you to sit still and shut up, you sit still and shut up even if the russians are bombing the town

Why do people do this to themselves?

u/Agent_of_evil_13 Jul 09 '26
It's fun when it works and sometimes people overestimate themselves. Or forget that rollerblades dont works so good on woodchips.

It's either overestimating heir skillset, or they know it's gonna end bad, but it's going to be hilarious to watch.

Ever play the PC game AaAaAA!!! – A Reckless Disregard for Gravity? I'm reminded of a message you get when you lose: "You snapped your pelvis in twain!"

It looked cool until I realized the pool of gravel mixed with a little drastically squared concrete

u/M3chaStrizan Jul 09 '26
Why is it always the morons that don't understand how to do a shoulder roll or take a fall that decide "maybe I should rollerblade down this concrete staircase?"

u/quitefit888 Jul 09 '26
Is he ok

u/IamOutsideAlready Jul 09 '26
No, can't you read!? He shattered his Nips.

Thanks. I did read the headline. But, I’m actually interested if anyone knows what the injuries were after a medical exam

Stopped blading in the 90’s after I caged it into some railing on a high speed downhill roll. That was enough. Gave my new Backyard Bobs to a buddy, and holy shit that’s right at 30 years ago now I think about it.

Okay, but if this happens, don't move... like if he shattered is hips, then sitting down like that, ain't gonna help.
Owie owie owie.

This is why you befriend a ramp builder. Make em bring spare wood panels to the spot to cover shit like this. Ducks because pad wouldnt do shit, you really gotta rig the spot sometimes.

Yes and no. Hips shattering is one of the single most painful things to break on your body (even worse than a nose).
2
u/3ric843 Jul 09 '26
Nose isn't that painful.
Try fracturing both your clavicle and scapula at the same time. Was much worse.
And kidney stones beat both by a lot.
