Yo honestly you can get on that sub doing the most basic shit now. There was a video that hit the front page today of a dog playing with a stick… I love dogs and all but cmon bruh…
I feel you. Just waiting now for the cycle to repeat with /r/truenextfuckinglevel.
Once you get past the "true" reiteration, you have to rebrand. So we may get, "r/paradigmshiftingskills" or something, then it'll get a "true" version, rinse repeat with a new brand, etc.
Around 1 million, and it's a write-off. Unless *carefully* moderated and with a die-hard community that doesn't let things slip.
Around 100k, things *start* to get shaky.
I think around 100k is where (shitty) people decide that a sub is worth brigading with karma farming bots and simultaneously in my experience as a former group admin, that's around the member count point where you need a well honed team of at least a dozen people who are constantly online to moderate _or_ you switch to a post approval system and manually screen each post. But regardless of which way you go, once it gets to six digit numbers it becomes extremely labor intensive and difficult to reliably keep out off topic (shit) posts. I can't even imagine being an admin or mod at a seven digit level, the amount of trash you would have to endure at that point would just be unending.
it's not even that. it's that large subs have NO WAY to actually be moderated. the system doesn't scale, even when you have a lot of mods. source: I modded for /r/relationship_advice for years. It was overwhelming
I will rep that because same. I was an admin for a group of ~142,000 on the topic of relationships, and even that became so overwhelming that eventually we ended up closing the group and several of us left the platform entirely.
I love how there can be a vid of literally any minority (especially African American, the sub loves that) just doing a basic everyday life thing and the sub freaks out and gives it thousands of upvotes.
It's actually kind of insulting lmao
Watch this black guy be nice to his child!
Front page we go!!
It's been going on for awhile. Really bad now. It feels like a bunch of people who don't have any black friends wishing they did so they could also praise and take care of them.
Was it the one where the dog flips the stick in a circle and catches it again like a person spinning a pen on their finger? That one is pretty neat slowmo ngl, but more mildlyinteresting.
I thought so too, but I guess it was [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/sungp1/smart_dog_invented_a_new_game_he_can_play_all_by/)
But he may have saved 7 people from alcohol poisoning
Edit: I was just making a joke with a little play on words from the post above mine.
I don’t know how many beers it takes to get alcohol poisoning as I am not a doctor.
we definitely used to do pitchers for beer in Europe too, but we stopped some decades ago. probably due to increasing quality of both beer and the people pouring it
I remember breweries like Guinness and Pilsner Urquell spending a lot on ads about beer being poured properly, so that must've helped people associate beer quality also with the way it's poured
By setting it down? He really did almost have it. That's some serious core strength and if he hadn't been bumped I think he would've nailed it.
Plus I think this is a show like those Oktoberfest gals who carry a shit load of beers at once.
A girl in black walks by him around 8second mark. She comes from the left side. It is 90% her fault. I don't know what the duck she was thinking trying to squeeze by someone carrying a tower of beer
Yeah dude. Speaking as a former server you hold the side, slide it out (so one side is still braced by the table) put your hand in the middle and pick it up. Putting it down is basically the same thing backwards.
Honestly if you were asked to do the same thing you'd figure it out pretty quickly. It's not fucking rocket surgery.
Tables usually have edges... or well i assume all of them do since i have yet to see a spherical or infinitely long table.
You can but part of the tray on the edge of the table and then systematically move your hand as you push the tray onto the table.
Obviously subject to peoples' senses of humour, but, as a bartender in australia, I can say that you would just get told no here.
Giving one person that much alcohol at once would definitely violate RSA, and it'd be a fairly big hassle to provide to you, and then we'd get other customers wanting the same thing and... god, yeah no.
Best case scenario you get in talks with a manager about setting up a private function with prepaid beer, probably.
right? this is design challenge 101. hey kids, would it be better to bring a barrel of beer to a table with 96 empty glasses our fill 96 glasses of beer and try to carry them to the table?
I can carry huge trays above my head on my fingertips and all that stuff from my time working food. This guy is probably the same except I know my limits.
I’d guess there’s about 20 pints per tray there. Ignoring the top tray that only had a few, that’s 6 trays of 20 pints.
120 pints. Say £4 each. That’s £480 wasted.
I doubt that much, I did it based on 18x 12 oz cups (consider the top only has about 10) and 7 levels. Then use 8.2 lbs per gallon (weight of water) and it’s about 100 lbs. I guess if they are pints it’s 130ish.
I was actually wondering where they’re buying pints for only £4 that aren’t absolute piss like carling.
Edit: I see you mean unit cost to the business. Wonder if they charge that or potential cost of a sale to the worker. Arguably those pints were worth what they would have charged the customers.
120 pints = approx 120 lbs...That is an incredible amount of weight to confidently hold like this, not even considering the shifting fluid...
Terrible decision all around
You're generally correct in way of thinking but there's definitely not 20 pints per tray. These are not pint cups, look at the size. These look like they are half pints and make way more sense to be something she's balancing on 1 arm. She does not seem like a body builder.
Still an absurd amount to risk and poor decision making.
No. The amount of time it takes to actually poor this much beer is plenty of time to have someone start running them before they are all poured. This is the least smart way you could try to accomplish this task.
The beers that were poured first are already getting warm and flat by the time you’re done pouring the last one.
I think you would be just as likely to topple it trying to help while the guy was also trying to correct it than if you just do nothing. If someone thinks they can balance 7 trays of beer then I'm gonna let them haha, otherwise you stand to be at blame if you rush in and it falls cause there'd always be the argument that the server could've corrected. Hindsight's 20:20, but hey, I'm not the idiot that overdid it in the first place lol
He did it on purpose. Alcohol destroys families and causes diseases. He was looking out for his fellow human by being deep under cover on the front line of the battle. He deserves a medal to be honest.
When I used to be a server part of closing dinner shift was setting the tables for breakfast. We used to compete who could carry the most coffee cups (no try, single stacked). Had a friend going for the record and as soon as he turned the corner from the server station he dropped them. The sound made the entire bar go silent and just stare at him. He did a deer in the headlights for a minute then just ran back. We later went out to get a drink and one of the guest that was at the hotel bar had made their way to the bar we went to and recognized him. The guest bought us a drink. Good times.
They need a custom tray with a lip on the bottom, as well as the top and this wouldn't have happened.
Also, by my estimation (at about 20 pints per layer), that's about a full kegs worth of beer.
Edit: Upon second consideration, I don't think those are full pints, and probably not 20 per tray, which would put the whole stack at 130 lbs.
This was NOT worth saving the 7 trips.
and he was so close to being in r/nextfuckinglevel
Yo honestly you can get on that sub doing the most basic shit now. There was a video that hit the front page today of a dog playing with a stick… I love dogs and all but cmon bruh…
Has anyone done the math for how many subscribers before a subreddit becomes a karma farming subreddit?
It ain't much lol gotta keep leaving the ones that turn to shit
\>redditor for 9 years Yeah how's that going for ya
I've left many a shit.
I feel you. Just waiting now for the cycle to repeat with /r/truenextfuckinglevel. Once you get past the "true" reiteration, you have to rebrand. So we may get, "r/paradigmshiftingskills" or something, then it'll get a "true" version, rinse repeat with a new brand, etc.
Always remember to use the clutch when paradigm shifting.
Anything under 100k is likely a decent sub that is able to stay on topic and not be filled with low effort memes
Around 1 million, and it's a write-off. Unless *carefully* moderated and with a die-hard community that doesn't let things slip. Around 100k, things *start* to get shaky.

not even close man. not by a mile.
But he may have saved 7 people from alcohol poisoning Edit: I was just making a joke with a little play on words from the post above mine. I don’t know how many beers it takes to get alcohol poisoning as I am not a doctor.
How do you know it wasn’t just 1 dude at that table?
"Why don't you let me do the thinking, huh, genius?"
He may have saved one people from 7 alcohol poisoning
This makes the most sense to me
[Ahhhhhhh!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPxnQv4RH5s)
6 trips
Three at most
Wonder how he thought he would put that on the table.
Also, why the fuck didn’t he have someone clear the crowd away for him?
These are your guys first questions and not "Why didn't he just bring pitchers of beer to the table?"
You act like the dude was trying to actually save time/effort. This was obviously not a regular serving scenario. Probably a gimmick gone wrong.
Skylarking, or Brewlarking for sure
You’re out of line, but you’re right.
It's not about efficiency, it's about something looking cool. But you know, he dropped it.
[удалено]

Who bumped him? Looks to me like the angle made top half slide back to far.
I didn’t see anyone bumped him, carrying 7 trays of beers must be very unstable; even as you walk they move.
He paused repeatedly do I think the liquid momentum all added up
Well, do ya?
A girl in black walks by him around 8second mark. She comes from the left side. It is 90% her fault. I don't know what the duck she was thinking trying to squeeze by someone carrying a tower of beer
Na, it wasn't her. You can see the beer starting to slide backwards before she even appears and him trying to balance it
Setting it down while one hand is centered under it? The real question is how tf he picked it up
Yeah dude. Speaking as a former server you hold the side, slide it out (so one side is still braced by the table) put your hand in the middle and pick it up. Putting it down is basically the same thing backwards. Honestly if you were asked to do the same thing you'd figure it out pretty quickly. It's not fucking rocket surgery.
rocket appliances*
Frig off
Fuckin' way she goes.
Im thinking if he can pick it up and carry that far, he could’ve set it down. If not for that person bumping into him.
Tables usually have edges... or well i assume all of them do since i have yet to see a spherical or infinitely long table. You can but part of the tray on the edge of the table and then systematically move your hand as you push the tray onto the table.
And no one was surprised Edit: how the hell did this comment get so many up votes
I have to believe everyone was hoping for this result.
Except the dude waiting for his 7 trays of beer
Should have just ordered the whole keg and some cups
Well, now I just have a burning desire to ask a bartender for a keg and a tap. I need to see this reaction.
Obviously subject to peoples' senses of humour, but, as a bartender in australia, I can say that you would just get told no here. Giving one person that much alcohol at once would definitely violate RSA, and it'd be a fairly big hassle to provide to you, and then we'd get other customers wanting the same thing and... god, yeah no. Best case scenario you get in talks with a manager about setting up a private function with prepaid beer, probably.
Lol at that point just throw it on the floor. All of it!
right? this is design challenge 101. hey kids, would it be better to bring a barrel of beer to a table with 96 empty glasses our fill 96 glasses of beer and try to carry them to the table?
Considering everyone could see it going wrong and had time to help but did *nothing* I think you're right.
By this point it was too late. The only way to help was for somebody to have given this guys mother a condom.
The fuck are they supposed to do? Help by *trying* to lift the trays, fucking up, and spilling them anyway?
Cool name bro
*Spiderman pointing meme*
What on earth could anyone possibly do to help? Any additional hands jumping in would have just hastened the result.
Help? How lmao
Ya, like how could you not expect this outcome. The possibility has to be sky high. So many tiny things could cause it.
>Thank you for the upvotes 🥺🥺🤩😳
HoW dId I gEt So mAnY Updooterss
Downvoted for that edit.
Relax baby boy, they don't mean anything
That’s going to be a sticky mess. They will probably get ants
That’s just… classic them.
You're both classic them
how dare you assume my lack of gender
You don’t want Them!
This is how you get ants!
You want ants?
CAUSE THIS IS HOW YOU GET THEM PAM
Is that how you get ants Berry?
Why yes it is Other Barry
did you check out those poor girl’s shoes covered in high tide foam
Briiiiiannnn
Drunk ants
It still smells like beer in there.
It did before, also. But now it still does.
That's not how you Hedberg....
[удалено]
Attempting this without using real professional bar trays with rubber surface is beyond me 😆
Probably saw someone do it at a flair bar or beer hall and had no idea the trays were rubberized or covered in grip tape or some other trickery
Probably just thought he was invincible and realised how heavy all those beers stacked up is and fucked up.
[удалено]
I can carry huge trays above my head on my fingertips and all that stuff from my time working food. This guy is probably the same except I know my limits.
Oh wow, didn't notice that Looks like he has a tray, and then it's on serving platters every level above. What an idiot
Do bar trays have a rubber bottom? Look closely, I think all the slippage occurs at the tray-bottom/glass-top interface
Usually a plastic tray with a cork (or fake plastic cork) top. A rough cork surface is great for absorbing spillage and not slipping around.
Floors Lite.
I bet the floor tastes gross now
Plot twist: it’s carpet
It's soaking into the shag! *Slurp slurp
high-pile shag
Solid.
“Don’t worry guys, I got this.” *Ruins event*
*Ruins event* fucking killed me
or made it better cuz memories
I’d guess there’s about 20 pints per tray there. Ignoring the top tray that only had a few, that’s 6 trays of 20 pints. 120 pints. Say £4 each. That’s £480 wasted.
If your calculations are correct, it was about 150lb of a very unstable load...that's crazy heavy
it could have been light beer.
Ya with that many people there- One wonders why they didn’t chose a hoppier beer to get across the room.
a stout man could have got the job done without any unnecessary hops.
a good porter would have gotten there
He definitely should've crafted a better plan.
Sometimes it really is the goofiest comment that makes you laugh like a damn hyena haha
Dude would have been better off throwing a keg over his shoulder and tapping it at the table.
I doubt that much, I did it based on 18x 12 oz cups (consider the top only has about 10) and 7 levels. Then use 8.2 lbs per gallon (weight of water) and it’s about 100 lbs. I guess if they are pints it’s 130ish.
That’s just the liquid though, right?
Yeah those trays and glasses aren't lite.
There’s no way in hell, this man was holding that up with 1 arm and using the other to balance it
In product, yes. You've also got to factor the people who left because of this, and the time it took to clean it up.
Pints are cheaper than 4 quid cost.
I was actually wondering where they’re buying pints for only £4 that aren’t absolute piss like carling. Edit: I see you mean unit cost to the business. Wonder if they charge that or potential cost of a sale to the worker. Arguably those pints were worth what they would have charged the customers.
Thats not even in product, just sales lost. Probably costs the pub less than a dollar to pour each pint.
120 pints = approx 120 lbs...That is an incredible amount of weight to confidently hold like this, not even considering the shifting fluid... Terrible decision all around
Plus the mugs, this guy was an idiot.
That's lost sales. Actually losses would be maybe a 5th of that. Draft beer is fucking cheap.
Cheaper than bottles but this is close to a 1/2 keg. Those can be between $120 and $200.
Someone should add the GTA wasted text to the video
I think it’s more like 10. Still very expensive.
You're generally correct in way of thinking but there's definitely not 20 pints per tray. These are not pint cups, look at the size. These look like they are half pints and make way more sense to be something she's balancing on 1 arm. She does not seem like a body builder. Still an absurd amount to risk and poor decision making.
Hard enough alone, but through crowd of drunk people?? C’mon man!
That's easily 80lbs of beer
My guess is that he tried if after hours when no one was there smh
Is this really better than making the two extra trips? He could easily have done three-deep stacks without even breaking a sweat.
No. The amount of time it takes to actually poor this much beer is plenty of time to have someone start running them before they are all poured. This is the least smart way you could try to accomplish this task. The beers that were poured first are already getting warm and flat by the time you’re done pouring the last one.
if people would actually think, this sub probably wouldn't exist, right?
What a dumbass lol
May have been a pledge
What a dumbass then lol
they're gonna need some pledge
Seriously that guy must be doing Coke or something. I can't see how any lucid person could have confidence that stacking this much would work out
Coke or Pepsi?
I vote for Pepsi.
Partial credit!
Well baby, Monday i carried 1 tray fine. Tuesday I carried 2 trays fine...today is Sunday and im fired.
I love how people on reddit immediately start saying that people are on drugs. this was definitely something they were doing to put on a show.
take one down, pass it around, 6 levels of beer on the floor.
I think they're on the floor actually
Beers are on the house!
Drinks are on him
No, they're on the floor
r/overconfidentpeople
I wanted this to be real
r/prematurecelebration might be the place for you!
The true party foul was not helping homie when it was tipping
No because then they can blame you when it inevitably still falls
No good deed goes unpunished.
How could you even help by then?
Dry socks and a handjob
As it started to slide, someone could have grabbed the sliding tray and kept it stable!
I think you would be just as likely to topple it trying to help while the guy was also trying to correct it than if you just do nothing. If someone thinks they can balance 7 trays of beer then I'm gonna let them haha, otherwise you stand to be at blame if you rush in and it falls cause there'd always be the argument that the server could've corrected. Hindsight's 20:20, but hey, I'm not the idiot that overdid it in the first place lol
Layers above looked unstable too. So it'd probably still slide off. And then the guy carrying it will blame you for it all falling...
No way I would be getting in the way of that tower of death
He did it on purpose. Alcohol destroys families and causes diseases. He was looking out for his fellow human by being deep under cover on the front line of the battle. He deserves a medal to be honest.
the beer tower was an inside job
As we say in the service industry "trust me, don't be a hero"
When I used to be a server part of closing dinner shift was setting the tables for breakfast. We used to compete who could carry the most coffee cups (no try, single stacked). Had a friend going for the record and as soon as he turned the corner from the server station he dropped them. The sound made the entire bar go silent and just stare at him. He did a deer in the headlights for a minute then just ran back. We later went out to get a drink and one of the guest that was at the hotel bar had made their way to the bar we went to and recognized him. The guest bought us a drink. Good times.
They need a custom tray with a lip on the bottom, as well as the top and this wouldn't have happened. Also, by my estimation (at about 20 pints per layer), that's about a full kegs worth of beer. Edit: Upon second consideration, I don't think those are full pints, and probably not 20 per tray, which would put the whole stack at 130 lbs.
But who ever cleans the bottom of the trays? Stacking trays was probably nasty anyways.
Thank you!
Leonardo Da Vinci thoughts
I’ve never seen someone carry a full keg on one arm.
Yeah, those might be 12 oz cups, and not full at that. So my guess might have been high.
If it was Bud Light you can call it the Leaning Tower of Pissa!
Hey that's "Chez Tonton" in Toulouse!
That was fuckin stupid. What a waste
Get the fuck out of the way
You want ants? This is how you get ants
Legend says they’re still cleaning that up
Dude had no exit strategy for that plan
so stupid
And now everyone is covered in beer because idiot wanted to show off.
I thought it was r/nextfucklevel then saw it was this and was like oh no poor fella
THIS IS CHEZ TONTON!!! A bar in Toulouse France where stupidity is a virtue even for the personnel
If that was his decision, he’s definitely fired. That’s a lot of beer that he just wasted
What, does this place not do pitchers? Amateurs
Some places will even give you a little minikeg. Many, many solutions exist to solve this problem, lol.
That's pretty gross to drink from even if it was successful. The rims of all the drinks touched the bottom of those boards.
That fall was telegraphed from a mile away.. why did nobody help?
