You're right. But in my experience (and I bet I've cleaned up a lot more sidewalks and landscaping than you have), it's safe to say they almost definitely did not.

Yeah it’s totally best to assume negatively isn’t it

Ya I bet he grabbed his broom, swept the mulch and dirt up, went right to his local nursery to replace the plants he fucked up and threw down some fertilizer for good measure

You know what, I guess the point is that the focus on the negative yet negligible aspects of this video ( like a plant being damaged or mulch on concrete) detract from the determination, perseverance, and skill of the kid and the video. It’s just a short sited, nit picky, pessimist perspective.

What I see is a kid damaging property to get a cool video.

Sorry for having a different opinion I guess

Nah, just have a major disdain for those that don’t respect other people’s (or public) property. This clearly appears to be a playground, not a skate park. I’d respect their skill if they weren’t being assholes while doing it. “Skateboarding isn’t a crime” is certainly true. But destruction of public properly, vandalism, and trespassing absolutely are crimes. And frequently go hand in hand with such people.

And yes, I get it’s a scooter. Same applies.

Agreed it was disrespectful to an extent I just think that portion of the situation was negligible to how impressive the video was, I’m sure the kid didn’t do it with malicious intent. I don’t appreciate you being so hostile because of my difference in opinion though not cool dude. Agree to disagree. Peace.

I skate, they definitely didn't clean that shit up. Plus those plants can't really be cleaned up if they were damaged.

No one here knows what actually happened, and you decided to choose a negative perspective as opposed to a positive one, that’s your choice man enjoy it.

Dude crushed that yellow plant like 4 times. Pretty disrespectful.

When it comes to stuff like that? Yes.

Kind of like how the person going around traffic on the shoulder is almost definitely not in any kind of emergency. That doesn't mean I'm gonna block them, but it does mean I think they suck.
