#2 I was helping my dad demo a burned out 3-car garage. We were trying to get the frame down, when he decided we'd pull it down with rope. Sure, it's just a steel beam wrapped in brick. It fell inward, where we were standing, and knocked him back. I panicked thinking he got hit, but he was okay - then I looked down. I shit you not, the damn thing landed not three inches in front of my foot.
It's been 20 years and I still get chills thinking of how close I was to at LEAST getting maimed.
These would be much easier to watch if the bearded and bespectacled guy worked on his double-take game. The second guy doesn't even try, and I respect that.
I absolutely loathe content where someone just takes a dozen clips and edits themselves just standing there and staring. It might have been funny the first time but it's just so creatively lazy.
Lotta varied takes below that sum it up... It's annoying to see the reaction guy more than once in a while, but for a one-off clip he ties the narrative string of clips together in a way that's like old clip shows with short reactions like you'd see in AFV crowd shots. Least there isn't host commentary over it 🤷 I'd probably steal my favorite of the entire batch and safely cross-post it to family that work in trades.
Aight so I've seen a bunch of clips where a bunch of monkeys in hi vis are in a mexican standoff with an out of control spinning tool, an auger or polisher or something. Has some fuckwit taped down the power switch or can they do that from the factory?
Fuckwit. Every power tool I ever used needed someone holding down the switch. Today everything requires two switches for starting up, and then one pressed continuously.
#3 the last one is a powered auger, handy as can be for digging holes, but can fucking kill you if you get the drill stuck, like with what happened here, because they make a LOT of torque.
I'll never understand the casual disregard for any safety considerations or understanding of how physics works on construction sites that will mess you the fuck up. People are so stupid.
Way too many people suck at thinking things through to conclusion or looking ahead for potential outcomes. Coupled with arrogance relying on an overconfidence in their skills leads to horrific accidents occurring that are completely avoidable if they just took 30 seconds to think it through.
Looked to be neighbouring property wall. They just backfilled tons of earth and concrete to it - "she'll be right mate!" That was inevitable, either now or years later...

I'd like to see the rest of that roller clip.

Down vote because stupid reaction between otherwise already seem clips. This is not new content.

hopefully a lesson was learned

It is honestly amazing we live as a species.

I love seeing this shit, but the little cut-ins of people wearing safety gear and looking disappointed is such a worthless addition.
vanderzee
very true, sadly it has become more difficult to find video without the annoying reaction guy or some huge banner covering 1/3 of the screen

The Dude has the same expression as I did. WTF??

DAT LAST ONE DOE - the foot with the saw
Kyen155
You're right, the idiot wasn't wearing his safety sandals!
jaggcomputing5
I enjoy these, but do we really need the Dorkly Twins?
vegivamp
So a stack of perfectly good videos ruined by a reaction cunt that adds absolutely nothing?
RevRagnarok
I'm over here wondering if that was "cut" as a typo and thinking "yeah, that works."
vegivamp
It wasn't.

Read somewhere that the guy back flipping and making a hole got fired the same day

The bare feet & the circular saw made my balls shrink in fear.
CeoHuntingSeason
I remember when compilation videos didn't need an idiot editing itself in while looking to the sides, good times.
WoopDeFrickenDoo
its the only way to watch porn
RevRagnarok
FFS I know.... I'm so tired of this... this is not The TikTok we don't need that shit.
Prometheusblu
Original video does 98% of the work, they add the other 2% of them looking shocked thus avoiding copyright strikes and taking 100% of the ad revenue.
PrincePiggo
That and the stupid banner across the top of the second compilation that manages to block out the action in some of the clips.
vanderzee
agree with all these. still amusing to watch, and im unable to search for the original unedited videos...so these must do
brandonblk
why does it clip to some random guy at the end of every clip. its not needed
PutYourBackIntoIt
I feel like I'm starting my construction career over again.
RainierCamino
Hmmm I do remember playing a fun game of trying to run (very short) self tappers into coworkers hardhats
trhopkins
Some of those were scary!
vanderzee
quite a lot!
TinyLiehon
Some of these people haven't heard about safety squints. And that last guy wasn't even wearing his safety flipflops!
TheDaharMaster
The forklift on the other forklift tho…my god that was terrifying
metalrulercid
Loved the guy in the wheelbarrow, though!
KleptoKea
I inhaled loudly on the last one with the barefeet
itsokimaussie
If it's a masonry blade you'd need to try really hard to cut yourself.
Shovi
That one really made me cringe hard.

Jesus fucking toe splitting Christ that one made me uncomfortable

Go to Thailand and you can meet many people like him begging on the street.. so many people with missing limbs

Gold old USA left a lot of landmines in south east asia too.
Ohdearaudrey
A lot of these were bad but in #2 when the garden wall fell down I said oh shit out loud
EneZio
Damn that guy really ruins his own videos
WhiskyBravo
#4 you NEVER take off your safety flip flops!
vanderzee
not even during sex!
MechKelly
Excellent. Now, can we get a version without the horribly unnecessary reaction guy?

“I don’t have any original content, but I can find videos from a category and make disproving faces over the bad ones”
“Cool! Have an upvote!”
MasonTheNosam
What a toxic way to view content creation. Theres a fair bit of work that went into these. The good news is it wasn't for you.
moxythree
Oh no! I have my own opinions on things and it’s different than yours!
xuriV
I think it's a hilarious addition but only in short bursts between other videos. can't be watching like 10 in a row like this it gets so annoying
M4UsedRollout
I kinda like it. It groups the clips together in a narrative without being obnoxious or intrusive.
CheeseIsNaturesFudge
Yeah as much as I like the content I really don't like being told how to react to it
victell
It's content aggregation,.like America's funniest home movies, or imgur.
SURPRISEscience
I don't mind these kind of videos, it's basically a clip video and it doesn't have music and voice stapled over it.

I like them 🤷

The first couple of these I remember seeing I enjoyed, but it's just gotten lazy and exploitative at this point.

TheOlHaroldHolt
Wait the guys actually recording reactions to every video? Could have sworn it’s just repeated videos of himself in every video 🤣

dashers
I use one on my power drill, and even on the lowest setting that thing can jam up pretty quick. Luckily I just need to let go and it stops dead.
SciencePetsComputers
They also have a deadman switch, which they obviously bypassed.
NightOwlRally
Yup, that happens a lot.

yeah its mind boggling how stupid and careless people can be, not even a recent world wide panemic changed anything (for most)

Should’ve braced that wall before dumping concrete behind it.

Looked to be neighbouring property wall. They just backfilled tons of earth and concrete to it - "she'll be right mate!" That was inevitable, either now or years later...
