Well, if she was hoping for "clicks," then she got her wish!

While I somewhat understand the urge, I have a strong distaste for videos that show people getting seriously hurt or killed.

I definitely agree.

Some prank videos indeed amuse me, but videos where people are severely hurt or killed - that’s where I draw the line.

Had to sign in to watch it...so I didn’t.
People with the desire to put themselves in harms way may be discouraged if they see what could happen. People who are suicidal may have found an easy way.
One thing for sure...it is a taste of reality for people who think movies or TV shows staged accidents are easily survived. Lots of younger folk live virtual lives regarding physical dangers.

The assassination of JFK on 11/22/63 can be seen in the horrifying Zapruder film. We’ve been seeing it on TV and online for decades now. So, why is this particular video supposed to be so objectionable? This “idiot” was just an average ordinary guy while JFK was President of the United States. The difference between the two should be clear.

Might serve as a warning to some of the other mouth-breathers....

I’ve heard about ‘stupid shock’, but rarely see it even on video (the girl just standing there).

Maybe she was just “ITYS.”

She was next to the tracks, and my guess is that she thought she was far enough away to be safe but misjudged the distance.

She just got bumped either by the train or its wake knocked her down..

There is a show on ROKU called Fail Army. It shows people sometimes doing perfectly normal things that end unexpectedly with funny results, and people doing incredibly STUPID things that you just know aren’t going to end well, with not-so-funny outcomes where you just know that person was injured, but not seriously. Those clips are uncomfortable to watch.

It’s like Funniest Home Videos on steroids.

And we almost saw it happen in hi-def tv to Donald Trump…

[I’d guess she survived.]

Dumb Bro@d got roughly shouldered out of the way and fell down. Might be bruised up a little bit.

There is a show on ROKU called Fail Army . . . .


There have been times in my life that I could have qualified for a clip, like the time I tried an “ollie” on my son’s skateboard.

Thank you, I hope she did survive.

But her action had been really awkward.😐

Many fail to understand stupidity in unlimited don’t use it.
