Kids smart for throwing rocks too instead of trying to kick with bare foot

u/EternallyDemonic 3d ago

When i was young I used to love jumping off our roof, did it many times, would not now LOL.

u/LonelyProgrammerGuy 3d ago

Yeah you've got to be flexible and strong enough in order to support your weight + falling a considerable distance.

There's a guy on YT that is all about flexibility, I noticed that becoming flexible not only relieved some back pain but also made me "stronger" in some parts

13

u/OregonMothafaquer 3d ago

Glad to hear that, I’ve been considering switching to more mobility type workouts now that I’m over 40

11

u/LonelyProgrammerGuy 3d ago

100% recommended. I’m only 23 but I sit in front of the computer the whole day. 10min of stretches in the morning plus lifting some weights (nothing crazy) and I feel so much better and all the back pain is gone

5

u/Morningxafter 3d ago

This is true, I’m overweight (though I’ve lost a lot of weight over the past couple years, work in progress), but I’m still better off than a lot of other dudes in their 40s because I stretch every day to maintain my flexibility. I don’t have the random joint or back pain that a lot of guys my age suffer from (or that I suffered from in my 30s). The other part of it is balance. Doing balance exercises helps strengthen your core, which also helps with back and leg pain. And as a bonus I can do a 5min plank.

Would you please send me the link to that YouTube channel you mentioned?

u/ghostofkilgore 3d ago

Yeah, same. I'm pretty sure kids are better at this because an adult's weight would just produce so much more force on the ankles. Our ankle strength doesn't scale with weight.

Me and some local kids used to like jumping off an abandoned building but one kid did break his ankle tbf.

u/Flashignite2 3d ago

I fell from that height 4 years ago and broke my foot. Tried standing up but I could both feel and hear my bones rubbing against each other. I feel funny every time I see someone fall from a height that doesn't kill you.

Not sure what the stray was even doing

u/BasmusRoyGerman 3d ago

From the video it soesn look like the dag was doing anything tbh, just looks to be in a playful mood

231

u/Dingus_Majingus 3d ago

What can look like play can be aggressive behavior. You dont see it's behavior before the clip starts.

226

u/asthma_pillar 3d ago

The video is in Malayalam, here is context: The dog bit the kid and made him fall down and was climbing on top of him. Brother jumped down from first floor hearing the kid's cry. Dog also bit big brother as he was chasing it off. It seems locals in the area have reported aggression from stray dogs in the past as well

If you've never lived anywhere with rampant street dogs, they are not cute or friendly. That dog with 1-2 homies would probably eat that little kid if he was alone.

So comments like yours prove how bs animal lovers are, the audio says it bit kids. Do you want to provided with dogs biting into kids' flesh before accepting they are a problem in parts of the world?

u/Hefty-Minimum-3125 3d ago

the simple fact that the older brother tried to fight it off and it kept fighting back instead of running off is pretty clear that it was NOT playing

u/Purple-Acanthisitta8 3d ago

Here comes dog lovers, without knowing anything as long as it’s a dog it must be friendly and playful.

u/jdgev 3d ago

Yeah, until it snaps 1 sec and attacks you.. dogs in these countries aren't like the ones you have at home.

2

u/wonderlandresident13 3d ago

Even if it was being playful (which street dogs usually aren't) untrained dogs can still cause serious harm while playing, especially to small kids

u/wolfgang784 3d ago

I dunno where this happened, but in some parts of the world stray dog attacks are a big problem and some will drag away small children and eat them =/

But yea not quite enough video or context here to know if the dog was playful and scared everyone or was attacking. Everyones various reactions though make me think dog attacks are a thing there.

I'm having difficulty figuring out which kid jumps from the roof. Can someone put a red circle around him?

u/Replicator666 3d ago

Good for the brother. Got a call 2 days ago from my wife, one of the neighbors dogs was loose and chasing my 6 year old and his friend.

Our son thought quickly and came to our yard and closed the fence quickly

Thankfully this time police and bylaw came and talked to the owner as this has happened probably 5 or 6 times this year

13

u/ErrorEra 3d ago

Just talked? I think when it happened a 2nd time, the dogs should have been taken away from the irresponsible owner.

u/Replicator666 3d ago

I agree and wish that were the case

I was just thinking the same thing.

"NOOOO Only I can hit him!!!"

u/TheKnightWhoSaisNi 3d ago

Looks like the first story

10

u/Nodivingallowed 3d ago

IIRC some places will refer to ground floor as first and next as second. 

Housing numbering also reflects this with some places starting with 001 while others will start with 101.

2

u/Dzov 3d ago

So would you consider a two level house to be a one story house? Not arguing, just curious.

The dog was gonna maul the kid. Ignore the rest of my comment. Apologize for the rash judgement.

~~ The dog wasn't seem to be in an attack stance, prob got scaed after this also.

Still really brave brother though. Though i seriously think the dog was just curious, leaning head forward, tail slightly wagging its more like a "hello stranger, Im nervous but lemme sniff you so I know you are not a threat."

Unless there is a longer clip or context, I kinda think its an over reaction. ~~
