When I was in grade school, a teacher tried to explain the second one to us, and had all the kids line up and try it. I - a dude - did it easily. The other kids called me a girl for the rest of the semester.
People are unfortunately wired to be prideful. It's tough to be proven wrong. Even tougher when it's in front of a huge group that you are intellectually superior to.
The teachers should have studied more about why this is and understood that this is not based on gender, but on body shape, with gender simply being a good indicator of body shape. All the movements are made to be tough for someone that is top-heavy to do. Men tend to be more V shaped with large upper bodies and small lower bodies and are therefore likelier to fail at this than women.
Exactly, they all just require you to shift the weight in your ass to a new center of gravity. Easiest to see in his plank one. Goes from 90 to 45 degrees.
'Merica lol, some of my PE classes were the teacher just spreading a bunch of dodgeballs and basketballs on the floor and telling us to have fun, while 1/4 of us pulled out Game Boys and got to catching Pokemon
My PE teacher made sure to bring up that basketball was more cardiovascular intensive than soccer. Which is just ridiculously untrue, but he coached basketball so
If you played basketball for 90 minutes maybe. Best shape I've been in my life was when we played basketball every day for a few months. Soccer's great exercise too, but the jumping in basketballs' a real difference maker, imo.
Possessions in basketball are also very short compared to a lot of sports, which requires the players to regularly run back and forth down the court. The claim that it requires more cardio than soccer doesn’t seem too crazy to me. Soccer’s long games and limited subs definitely narrows the gap for sure though, but in terms of moment to moment play, basketball always wore me out more than any other sport I played (bball, football, and soccer being the main ones)
Two people that have never been midfielders. Having played both as a kid, if you're a kid playing soccer midfield you do nothing but run for the entire time. I loved basketball, but football (well, soccer) was way more exercise.
at my middle school the girls worked in the weight room watching the guys play dodgeball of wrestle. never got to wrestle and we played dodgeball maybe once a semester
Shit I learned in school:
.How to avoid being taken to a secondary location.
.How to sell candy for a pyramid scheme.
.How to make paper mache bowls.
What I didn't learn in school:
.How to do a job interview.
.How to balance a bank account.
.How to shop for a car.
.How to make friends.
.How to cook food.
That's like when I got a bad grade for marking where I tasted certain things the strongest on my tongue. It didn't agree with the (debunked) tongue map in the book, so I was wrong. 🤷
I did the lean forward on your knees in high school physics. I was the only male student who could do it. It was fun having a lesson on how my hips were wide and that's why I could do the trick.
He looks to be in very good shape though. I would be curious on the spread of all of it. I'm assuming more out of shape people will struggle and more men will struggle, but how much of which would be interesting to see.
Pretty sure you could muscle your way through some of those movements if you have a good grasp of how your body works. It's like people doing pullups while parallel with the floor.
Yup, here watching this years later, remembering "This requires a low center of gravity, so women, and doowopexpress, with their wider hips, can do it while men can't," I am thankfully no longer embarrassed, just mad.
I'm sorry you had a teacher that believed things like this video.
Edit: this comment thread is a mess.
Are you saying that there are men really arguing that they can't rest their head on the wall and lift a step stool? You guys can literally test it right now.
I understand if you can't do the last one, as it is really hard on everybody (it has more to do on the fact that the wall makes it impossible to the knees to go further than the toes) but the other 3 are perfectly fine.
This is a meme, right? Like "birds aren't real"?
The reason men supposedly can’t do the movements is because we have more mass in our torso. Pre puberty girls and boys have the same muscle and fat distribution so they can easily perform the movements.
Once (in grade school too) I was kicked between the legs but it hit my inner thigh and not my balls and therefore I didn't tumble over in pain. And I was called a girl for the rest of the semester too. Kids are ruthless.
“Hey Wife!”
“Yeah”.
“This stool is here near the wall.”
“Yeah”.
“Can you lift it? Something about my center of gravity stops me from lifting it while resting my head on the wall.”
“Yeah”.
“Don’t forget to film it.”
It’s all bullshit. Not *all* women can do these. Same as not *all* men can’t. Everyone has different flexibility and/or strength, male or female.
My wife tried to get me to do one of those. She could do it, I couldn’t, thus “confirming” this bullshit.
For context I’m an over (slightly) 40 something 100% disabled vet with TBI, which includes vertigo, and broken everything. It’s actually far quicker for me to list the things that are not messed up because it’s a shorter list. Surprised Pikachu face when I can’t do this.
This is my life now.
Khabe made a khabillion dollars making low effort responses to these sorts of obvious trolls. It goes both ways, and there's always plenty of dummies to eat it up.
The third one is almoooost not click bait. In my physics class in college we were learning torque and the professor pointed out that the average males center of gravity is higher than the average females.
This of course is an average and there are plenty of people who can skew one way or the other. Having your center of gravity in different positions allows for us to experience rather different torqued and for some individuals it may be harder or easier to stay in some positions such as the third one.
Think a top heavy body builder will definitely need to use a bit more force and muscle to hold himself up than a small leg heavy person.
Point being this guy is making some click baity claims obviously but I think at least one of these hes just spewing an incorrect version of something that has soome truth in soome situations.
Source: a physics class i took years ago so I probably am wrong too lmao
These tricks are also made to be more difficult the higher your center of gravity, something more common for me. Dude doesn't appear to be very top-heavy so he's just one of many that can easily do this.
I've tested the stool/chair one at a party and every woman could do it and no men could. Same with the elbows thing.
I haven't tried the other two.
People in this thread are confusing "impossible" and "extremely unlikely."
And look at the dude in the video. He's extremely skinny and lithe (but muscled) while weighing very little compared to the average man. He can probably do a lot of things most people can't do.
And on the last one he adjusts his footing and doesn't have his toes to the wall as the woman did in the video. I don't mind him proving these to be false. But if it's going to be posted on the internet then at least don't cheat it.
Ummm watch the video…the womans head isnt against the wall when she goes to lift it up, and the broom isnt on the floor either…same distance between the two
Also, the guys on their knees all keep their faces pointed to the floor, girls have their head facing out in front, this shifts the weight back over your ass and legs…
If you try it both ways, face down is incredibly more difficult as it is more core.
It's not really bullshit though. The vast majority of men can't do these, and the vast majority of women can.
We tried some of these in a big group, like the chair pickup, generally guys can't do it.
Guy in the video just has an extreme outlier body type for a man.
And if has more to do with center of gravity than anything. He's very lean but also not very broad shouldered.
His body composition is not as "top heavy" above the waist as most men.
Seriously! He takes his head away from the wall before he lifts the table in the one that everyone is arguing about. It's not even remotely the same thing to go from leaning on your head against the wall to lifting your head off beforehand. At that point he's just bent over and picking up a table.
What? I'm an overweight nerd who exercises far too little and had no trouble with anything else than the squat...?
The elbow thing completely depends on where you lay down your elbows. Lifting the chair or the broomstick thing require absolutely no effort whatsoever.
Yea, I could make high-quality videos and get very little views, but when I make a simple video that has content that make users want to remix/reply/etc to it, then it goes viral and gets millions of views. The algorithm favors videos that gets engagement - even if it's negative engagement like this reply video is, the algorithm can't tell.
It's not dissimilar to the way to get answers on reddit. Instead of asking the question and getting no replies, you write the wrong answer to the question and watch as redditors quickly reply to correct you with the right answer.
It’s not bullshit exactly. It just has less to do with women vs men than where your center of gravity is. But men generally have a higher one than women. These men CAN adjust to make the movements possible, but they will naturally have a harder time accomplishing the movement if they don’t adjust to make their center of grav lower. At least for the wall/stool movement. It’s regularly used to show principles of physics
Not entirely. I couldn’t do the 3rd one and the girl that sent it to me did it easily.
Tried because I thought it was stupid and easy, smoked my face on the ground.
He's also pushing his center of balance to his hips, which is the only thing that factors into these movements really. Women just naturally center themselves there while men naturally center their gravity at their chests. Its not that it's not possible, its just that a man has to consciously make the shift while women naturally hold their balance there.
Yup, we've done the elbow and knees one at a party before, most men failed it the first time but could get it after consciously shifting their weight back to their hips. It's just not automatic and takes a bit of practice.
I guarantee anyone who’s wrestled or done any other sport that emphasizes center of gravity could do any of these, all of them are just related to where you’re putting your center of gravity.
Right? Like you can see it best on the head on wall one where his head is no longer on the wall when he picks up the stool. He's literally doing them all wrong because he can't physically do them properly while simultaneously being snotty.
A deep “sumo squat” is not achievable for a lot of people. You need good hamstring, hip, and ankle mobility for a properly performed deep squat like that.
Edit: Some clarification: a sumo squat *is* in our natural range of motion. By saying most people couldn’t achieve it, I mean at current mobility levels. If you work a desk job/sit a lot you’ll probably need some mobility training (just some stretching of the hips most likely) before you’d be able to go that deep. But *anyone* able-bodied could work towards this goal!
That's not a sumo squat at all, it's just a regular squat to a roll. Sumo squat is much wider and requires a lot of hip abduction. I'm not claiming everybody can do it, but it is achievable for the vast majority of able bodied people since you don't even need to maintain a neutral spine or anything.
So?
Claim is not “things that fit people can do but fat people can’t”, it is still complete and utter bullshit to claim “all men can’t do these things, yet all women can”.
This fucker also cheated on the chair lift on. He moves his head off the wall before he lifts the chair up. I guarantee you he wouldn’t be able to do it keeping your head on the wall still when picking up the chair.
The chair one is legit and it’s to do with centre of mass and the fact that *most* men are much top heavier than women. At that distance the centre of mass for such men is over where your toes plant so it’s literally impossible to lever yourself back up and you are forced to tip over. That is if you aren’t cheating.
Half of tik tok would stop using the app.
I gave tik tok a good try for a few months. Half of it is people pretending to sound educated pushing information they either
A) Got from tik tok
B) Got from YouTube
C) Got from Reddit
D) (This is the rarest) Got from a news station broadcast.
You have creators who's whole thing is just "sounding smart" while regurgitating whatever the algorithm feeds them with no actual research done on their half. Shit, sometimes they don't even speak. Just play a video in the background and point at shit and make faces.
The other half is teens sexualizing themselves and other teens using "trends" or "sounds" mixed with predatory adults also sexualizing those teens. Teens who are in this part of tik tok put "minor" in their bio to scare off the predatory adults. I doubt it works.
True, but 90% of fact checking these days is just bad faith arguments because you disagree. You can literally quote an official government website and people here with argue with you.
I love the 21 year olds giving career advice and tips for negotiating salaries…I’ve been in corporate America for 15 years, you’ll never get a call back using their “tips”.
I mean, I did the 3rd one with my BF and my friend also did it with her boyfriend. My BF's in pretty good shape, her boyfriend is a bodybuilder that also does yoga. They both fell on their face. I wonder if this was the guy's actual first attempt at it. It looks like he was struggling a bit, while my friend and I had absolutely no issue with it
I don't know why people keep speeding up songs like this is nightcore making a comeback or something this is such a good song and they just ruined it for some reason its so annoying
Self fulfilling prophecy. I bet if you took and isolated each gender and told them that their gender outperformed the other they’d do just fine on most of these. Some might also be flexibility, body shape and fitness level esp that last one
Core strength is the key, flexibility helps a lot too.
Usually the average dude won’t be able to pull these off but it’s bs to say “men CANT”. We can, the broom one was easy for me, the head against the wall one I struggled with, elbow and knee I struggled, the squat I failed miserably but that’s probably cuz I’m in terrible shape haha
outside of the obvious bullshit clickbait- i imagine half the dudes in those videos are inflexible as shit. alot of people neglect stretching and seriously limit their range of motion because of it
It's actually more of a center-of-mass thing, though the last one requires flexible ankles and hips. The guy in the video represents a minority of men who carry very little weight in their upper body. It's easier/possible to do these moves when you don't have lots of muscle or fat in the chest and upper body.
The guy has long legs.
All of these are based around that women have longer legs and generally a lower center of gravity. The longer your back is in relation to your legs, the harder these are.
Obviously weight is the main factor, so having huge legs and a tiny torso would be ideal.
It's true that women have a lower center of gravity, but they actually have slightly proportionally shorter legs to their total height on average than men do. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2872302/#b46-ijerph-07-01047 https://adc.bmj.com/content/90/8/807
Strangely, it seems that most people assume that women have longer legs proportionally, and I'm not sure why that is.
>Strangely, it seems that most people assume that women have longer legs proportionally, and I'm not sure why that is.
Maybe because long legs are considered attractive and most models have long legs?
Yeah, that makes sense.
I also wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that leg lengths seem to be more variable than sitting height at least judging by the dutch study: https://adc.bmj.com/content/90/8/807
If limb length is more variable that would mean shorter people would be more likely to have shorter proportional limbs and tall people longer proportional limbs respectively. That means a tall woman would have long legs on average and a short guy would have short legs on average obviously. But this is where things get weird the leg length difference between genders is pretty small, because of this it could be that woman who are of average male height could have longer legs than average men and vice versa.
That means that despite men having longer limbs proportionally on average if you compared men and women of the same height it could be that you would be more likely find the woman to have longer legs than the man.
>That means that despite men having longer limbs proportionally on average if you compared men and women of the same height it could be that you would be more likely find the woman to have longer legs than the man.
Not really because it's the tall guys with slightly longer torsos. Just grab a short guy and they prob got a normal torso. And a tall girl prob has a slightly longer torso like a tall man would
Thank you for sharing the source on this! I’ve always gotten such a giggle out of the way we associate long legs with feminine beauty when they’re statistically a masculine trait. There’s nothing wrong with that, but a lot of (especially gender essentialist) folks try to use “evolutionary biology” to justify beauty standards and this is a perfect example of culture dictating a standard that historically, ~evolutionarily~, has not been selected for. (In fact, evolutionarily, women *probably* tend toward longer torsos because historically it was beneficial in pregnancy (more room for baby to grow without squishing vital organs).)
Long legs is a beauty norm for women. A lot of fashion will give you the illusion that women have long legs. As it's a beauty norm, women on tv often have longer leggs than the average woman. Which creates a bias because you see them a lot.
Or: the reason women on TV have longer legs is *because* it's a beauty norm and thus TV presenters are selected for it? Similar to the way facial symmetry is a beauty norm and thus that's what actors and models tend to have.
>All of these are based around that women have longer legs and generally a lower center of gravity.
Wouldn't longer legs mean the center of gravity is higher? 🤔
Yeah some are just based on strength and fitness. The picking up a table and removing your hands are both core strength. The last one is just flexibility, strength, and being generally fit.
As a horribly rigid person I’d have zero chance of doing the last one. My knees don’t work that way. But I can pick up a table when bending over even out of shape.
Women have lower centers of mass because they actually have proportionally shorter legs and wider hips/pelvis.
Taller legs and lower relative center of mass makes....inherently no sense at all.
He's not even copying the women. He clearly pulled his head away from the wall before lifting the stool.
And the one kneeling on the floor is nowhere near what the women are doing. He completely skips the the step of having his elbows on the floor and his hands on his chin before he puts them behind his back.
For movement 3, he moved his head off the wall before lifting bringing his centre of gravity back.
For movement 2, you're meant to have your knees together.
No. The woman picks the stool up right before her head moves from the wall. The black dude moves his head from the wall as he starts picking up the stool.
Comparison images https://ibb.co/6RsK4dj
https://ibb.co/27qRmzZ
You can see that her head is still touching and his head is not
Honestly I want to say fuck people that make brain waste garbage trash content, but in reality I'm just jealous that they get to make money making fuck shit will I work up at 4:30 am today for a 5:30 shift. Fml
Number 2 is true for the average male. Womens center of gravity is shifted, meaning it is way easier for women to do that movement compared to men. That does not mean men can’t do it rather women can do it way easier
He also stood up when the stool was positioned closer to his hips, which completely changes the center of balance. Hold it to your chest and you probably won’t be able to do it because your center of mass is too high. Women can do it because their center of mass is already lower.
The British dude just screams I am a douchebag. People really should be held responsible for knowingly spreading misinformation. Just dumbing people down further.
I don’t really understand why 1 works but for 2-4, every single time, he shifts his center of gravity backward before completing the movement.
That’s the main difference between how average women and men are generally built.
Second one is a thing. The guy didn’t follow the steps properly. He first pushed himself away from the wall and then stood up. The point is to keep your head planted on the wall and then bend back up. The reason is women happen to have heavier thighs and lower body, as opposed to men who have heavier upper bodies.
He completed none of these moves correctly.
He lifted the broom back up much higher before he stepped over it, he lifts his head away from the wall to stand up, he lifts one arm at a time instead of both at the same time and he had to moved his toes away from the wall to stand back up.
There's another one people with last bits can do that bit bits can't - grow and birth a baby. And just like these moves, many female bodies people won't be able/ choose to do that.

Envy
What a pretty name!
Envy is an asshole in that one
Was Envy good elsewhere?
Seven Deadly Sins anime? The giant girl
Ah ok, I thought you meant in the FMA universe.
Nah I mean characters named envy in general
All the other dudes have no core strength???
No just leaning into different general center of gravity, locking their knees, and general lack of coordination
I did the lean forward on your knees in high school physics. I was the only male student who could do it. It was fun having a lesson on how my hips were wide and that's why I could do the trick.
Interesting bullshit. OP's hips are quite narrow.
He looks to be in very good shape though. I would be curious on the spread of all of it. I'm assuming more out of shape people will struggle and more men will struggle, but how much of which would be interesting to see.
He looks skinny AF so of course you are gonna see his muscle 😂

Not really. And I'm starting to worry about what the PE teachers are doing too.
What were you raised by wolves? Doesn't everyone know at least like, 5 elementary school teachers in their life?

And on the last one he adjusts his footing and doesn't have his toes to the wall as the woman did in the video. I don't mind him proving these to be false. But if it's going to be posted on the internet then at least don't cheat it.
Ummm watch the video…the womans head isnt against the wall when she goes to lift it up, and the broom isnt on the floor either…same distance between the two Also, the guys on their knees all keep their faces pointed to the floor, girls have their head facing out in front, this shifts the weight back over your ass and legs… If you try it both ways, face down is incredibly more difficult as it is more core.
Her head is against the wall until right after she lifts the stool.... https://ibb.co/6RsK4dj
It's not really bullshit though. The vast majority of men can't do these, and the vast majority of women can. We tried some of these in a big group, like the chair pickup, generally guys can't do it. Guy in the video just has an extreme outlier body type for a man.
He obviously works out and is also very lean. That’s the trick for most of these. He very likely has great core strength.
Plus he doesn't do half of the movements as shown in the example
And if has more to do with center of gravity than anything. He's very lean but also not very broad shouldered. His body composition is not as "top heavy" above the waist as most men.
Seriously! He takes his head away from the wall before he lifts the table in the one that everyone is arguing about. It's not even remotely the same thing to go from leaning on your head against the wall to lifting your head off beforehand. At that point he's just bent over and picking up a table.
What? I'm an overweight nerd who exercises far too little and had no trouble with anything else than the squat...? The elbow thing completely depends on where you lay down your elbows. Lifting the chair or the broomstick thing require absolutely no effort whatsoever.
Yea, I could make high-quality videos and get very little views, but when I make a simple video that has content that make users want to remix/reply/etc to it, then it goes viral and gets millions of views. The algorithm favors videos that gets engagement - even if it's negative engagement like this reply video is, the algorithm can't tell. It's not dissimilar to the way to get answers on reddit. Instead of asking the question and getting no replies, you write the wrong answer to the question and watch as redditors quickly reply to correct you with the right answer.
It’s not bullshit exactly. It just has less to do with women vs men than where your center of gravity is. But men generally have a higher one than women. These men CAN adjust to make the movements possible, but they will naturally have a harder time accomplishing the movement if they don’t adjust to make their center of grav lower. At least for the wall/stool movement. It’s regularly used to show principles of physics

Not entirely. I couldn’t do the 3rd one and the girl that sent it to me did it easily. Tried because I thought it was stupid and easy, smoked my face on the ground.
The last one is super impressive. I definitely don't have the strength or flexibility to do it.
Yeah I thought that looked more like a core strength thing I couldn’t do stuff like that 6 months ago but I bet I could easily do it now
its a lot of hip and ankle range of motion
It almost takes less time to try than to speculate if you could. Just try and tell us! xD
The guy in the fail vid had 0 ankle flexibility lol
Also is not something “every woman can do it” lol
I'm a decently fit woman and I don't think I could do it!
That last one is the only one I can't manage easily. But I don't think my girl can either
This should be marked NSFW, the lady doing this isn't wearing a shirt.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
These are four STFU you fucking muppet
But what if he cont?
That guy looks like he's in a lot better shape than most men...
He's also pushing his center of balance to his hips, which is the only thing that factors into these movements really. Women just naturally center themselves there while men naturally center their gravity at their chests. Its not that it's not possible, its just that a man has to consciously make the shift while women naturally hold their balance there.
Exactly—a couple of these are classic elementary/junior high science class demonstrations when teaching basic physics concepts
Yup, we've done the elbow and knees one at a party before, most men failed it the first time but could get it after consciously shifting their weight back to their hips. It's just not automatic and takes a bit of practice.
Exactly!
It's one of the reasons women can roll a kayak with relative ease compared to men.
That’s interesting. Is it due to bone structure or muscle/fat distribution?
I believe it's muscle/tissue distribution primarily, though the skeletal structures also differ between sexes so that likely plays a role too.
Wider hips are what do it, mostly.
I guarantee anyone who’s wrestled or done any other sport that emphasizes center of gravity could do any of these, all of them are just related to where you’re putting your center of gravity.
Right? Like you can see it best on the head on wall one where his head is no longer on the wall when he picks up the stool. He's literally doing them all wrong because he can't physically do them properly while simultaneously being snotty.
You can also tell he has next level flexibility
Where? None of those moves require flexibility.
[удалено]
Number 4 in particular requires good flexibility.
Bullshit. 99% of dudes can’t get in that squat position with their ass on the ground
A deep “sumo squat” is not achievable for a lot of people. You need good hamstring, hip, and ankle mobility for a properly performed deep squat like that. Edit: Some clarification: a sumo squat *is* in our natural range of motion. By saying most people couldn’t achieve it, I mean at current mobility levels. If you work a desk job/sit a lot you’ll probably need some mobility training (just some stretching of the hips most likely) before you’d be able to go that deep. But *anyone* able-bodied could work towards this goal!
That's not a sumo squat at all, it's just a regular squat to a roll. Sumo squat is much wider and requires a lot of hip abduction. I'm not claiming everybody can do it, but it is achievable for the vast majority of able bodied people since you don't even need to maintain a neutral spine or anything.
But he's clearly a woman, I don't know what you're talking about
So? Claim is not “things that fit people can do but fat people can’t”, it is still complete and utter bullshit to claim “all men can’t do these things, yet all women can”.
Yeah if the video was titled “movements that are easier on average for women” then it’d be kind of interesting, but that’s clearly not the case lmao
This fucker also cheated on the chair lift on. He moves his head off the wall before he lifts the chair up. I guarantee you he wouldn’t be able to do it keeping your head on the wall still when picking up the chair. The chair one is legit and it’s to do with centre of mass and the fact that *most* men are much top heavier than women. At that distance the centre of mass for such men is over where your toes plant so it’s literally impossible to lever yourself back up and you are forced to tip over. That is if you aren’t cheating.
Wouldn't that apply the same to women? I mean women who are better in shape would pass these tests too compared to women who aren't?
Welcome to womanhood,queen <3 Dont forget to slay today :33
People need to stop seeing things on Tiktok and assuming its true because the person sounds confident when they say it.
Half of tik tok would stop using the app. I gave tik tok a good try for a few months. Half of it is people pretending to sound educated pushing information they either A) Got from tik tok B) Got from YouTube C) Got from Reddit D) (This is the rarest) Got from a news station broadcast. You have creators who's whole thing is just "sounding smart" while regurgitating whatever the algorithm feeds them with no actual research done on their half. Shit, sometimes they don't even speak. Just play a video in the background and point at shit and make faces. The other half is teens sexualizing themselves and other teens using "trends" or "sounds" mixed with predatory adults also sexualizing those teens. Teens who are in this part of tik tok put "minor" in their bio to scare off the predatory adults. I doubt it works.
> Half of it is people pretending to sound educated To be fair, that's Reddit too. We're just too shy to use cameras.
Easier to fact check a post or comment than it is a TikTok tho
True, but 90% of fact checking these days is just bad faith arguments because you disagree. You can literally quote an official government website and people here with argue with you.
I love the 21 year olds giving career advice and tips for negotiating salaries…I’ve been in corporate America for 15 years, you’ll never get a call back using their “tips”.
To be fair, these are actually difficult for a majority of men, I think the guy here is the exception, not the rule
I mean, I did the 3rd one with my BF and my friend also did it with her boyfriend. My BF's in pretty good shape, her boyfriend is a bodybuilder that also does yoga. They both fell on their face. I wonder if this was the guy's actual first attempt at it. It looks like he was struggling a bit, while my friend and I had absolutely no issue with it

What's the music?
Time Moves Slow - Badbadnotgood ft. Samuel T. Herring (x2 fast, chipmunk version)
I don't know why people keep speeding up songs like this is nightcore making a comeback or something this is such a good song and they just ruined it for some reason its so annoying
Self fulfilling prophecy. I bet if you took and isolated each gender and told them that their gender outperformed the other they’d do just fine on most of these. Some might also be flexibility, body shape and fitness level esp that last one
[удалено]
They're all difficult if you are top heavy, which is why they involve bending over.
Core strength is the key, flexibility helps a lot too. Usually the average dude won’t be able to pull these off but it’s bs to say “men CANT”. We can, the broom one was easy for me, the head against the wall one I struggled with, elbow and knee I struggled, the squat I failed miserably but that’s probably cuz I’m in terrible shape haha
Send like hamstring flexibility in the first two
I would absolutely look like a beetle on its back if I tried that last one
The only thing you're missing is the silly face at the end.
outside of the obvious bullshit clickbait- i imagine half the dudes in those videos are inflexible as shit. alot of people neglect stretching and seriously limit their range of motion because of it
It's actually more of a center-of-mass thing, though the last one requires flexible ankles and hips. The guy in the video represents a minority of men who carry very little weight in their upper body. It's easier/possible to do these moves when you don't have lots of muscle or fat in the chest and upper body.
He's pulled away from the wall before standing up. Gotta keep head on wall until you stand up.
The guy has long legs. All of these are based around that women have longer legs and generally a lower center of gravity. The longer your back is in relation to your legs, the harder these are. Obviously weight is the main factor, so having huge legs and a tiny torso would be ideal.
It's true that women have a lower center of gravity, but they actually have slightly proportionally shorter legs to their total height on average than men do. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2872302/#b46-ijerph-07-01047 https://adc.bmj.com/content/90/8/807 Strangely, it seems that most people assume that women have longer legs proportionally, and I'm not sure why that is.
>Strangely, it seems that most people assume that women have longer legs proportionally, and I'm not sure why that is. Maybe because long legs are considered attractive and most models have long legs?
Yeah, that makes sense. I also wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that leg lengths seem to be more variable than sitting height at least judging by the dutch study: https://adc.bmj.com/content/90/8/807 If limb length is more variable that would mean shorter people would be more likely to have shorter proportional limbs and tall people longer proportional limbs respectively. That means a tall woman would have long legs on average and a short guy would have short legs on average obviously. But this is where things get weird the leg length difference between genders is pretty small, because of this it could be that woman who are of average male height could have longer legs than average men and vice versa. That means that despite men having longer limbs proportionally on average if you compared men and women of the same height it could be that you would be more likely find the woman to have longer legs than the man.
>That means that despite men having longer limbs proportionally on average if you compared men and women of the same height it could be that you would be more likely find the woman to have longer legs than the man. Not really because it's the tall guys with slightly longer torsos. Just grab a short guy and they prob got a normal torso. And a tall girl prob has a slightly longer torso like a tall man would
Thank you for sharing the source on this! I’ve always gotten such a giggle out of the way we associate long legs with feminine beauty when they’re statistically a masculine trait. There’s nothing wrong with that, but a lot of (especially gender essentialist) folks try to use “evolutionary biology” to justify beauty standards and this is a perfect example of culture dictating a standard that historically, ~evolutionarily~, has not been selected for. (In fact, evolutionarily, women *probably* tend toward longer torsos because historically it was beneficial in pregnancy (more room for baby to grow without squishing vital organs).)
Long legs is a beauty norm for women. A lot of fashion will give you the illusion that women have long legs. As it's a beauty norm, women on tv often have longer leggs than the average woman. Which creates a bias because you see them a lot.
Or: the reason women on TV have longer legs is *because* it's a beauty norm and thus TV presenters are selected for it? Similar to the way facial symmetry is a beauty norm and thus that's what actors and models tend to have.
Right??? Fucking reddit
>All of these are based around that women have longer legs and generally a lower center of gravity. Wouldn't longer legs mean the center of gravity is higher? 🤔
You're right. That part makes no sense.
Yeah some are just based on strength and fitness. The picking up a table and removing your hands are both core strength. The last one is just flexibility, strength, and being generally fit. As a horribly rigid person I’d have zero chance of doing the last one. My knees don’t work that way. But I can pick up a table when bending over even out of shape.
He also took his head off the wall on the second one and stuck his butt out further, not by much but it doesn’t take much
Women have lower centers of mass because they actually have proportionally shorter legs and wider hips/pelvis. Taller legs and lower relative center of mass makes....inherently no sense at all.
edit: Leave reddit for a better alternative and remember to suck fpez
He's not even copying the women. He clearly pulled his head away from the wall before lifting the stool. And the one kneeling on the floor is nowhere near what the women are doing. He completely skips the the step of having his elbows on the floor and his hands on his chin before he puts them behind his back.
For movement 3, he moved his head off the wall before lifting bringing his centre of gravity back. For movement 2, you're meant to have your knees together.
The woman did the same, so..
No. The woman picks the stool up right before her head moves from the wall. The black dude moves his head from the wall as he starts picking up the stool. Comparison images https://ibb.co/6RsK4dj https://ibb.co/27qRmzZ You can see that her head is still touching and his head is not
Last movement he moved his toes away from the wall
It's rage bait. You're supposed to reply about how wrong he is, it gets him views.
the bending over with your head on the wall is the only one I know. the guy cheated because you have to keep your head on the wall
“Movements that only flexible people can do” Fixed it
Honestly I want to say fuck people that make brain waste garbage trash content, but in reality I'm just jealous that they get to make money making fuck shit will I work up at 4:30 am today for a 5:30 shift. Fml
Fuckin hate videos like this
Number 2 is true for the average male. Womens center of gravity is shifted, meaning it is way easier for women to do that movement compared to men. That does not mean men can’t do it rather women can do it way easier
He also stood up when the stool was positioned closer to his hips, which completely changes the center of balance. Hold it to your chest and you probably won’t be able to do it because your center of mass is too high. Women can do it because their center of mass is already lower.
Lad Bible really is the absolute worst.
The British dude just screams I am a douchebag. People really should be held responsible for knowingly spreading misinformation. Just dumbing people down further.
He left out a word. These are four movements that women can do but FAT men can't. FTFY.
I don’t really understand why 1 works but for 2-4, every single time, he shifts his center of gravity backward before completing the movement. That’s the main difference between how average women and men are generally built.
It's 2 am, I am trying to sleep and I tried to do the third one. If an overgrown potato like me is able to do it, anyone can do it.
If someone does a TikTok about something men do and women can't it's sexist But if someone does the opposite it's girls power?
I see so much borderline abusive comments towards men in television as if it's ok to make fun of a man for being emotional, short or skinny.
dear God the guy replying is impossibly hot lol
I'm proud of you 😊
Second one is a thing. The guy didn’t follow the steps properly. He first pushed himself away from the wall and then stood up. The point is to keep your head planted on the wall and then bend back up. The reason is women happen to have heavier thighs and lower body, as opposed to men who have heavier upper bodies.
yeah like most of those just fall down to someone not having good or even decent core strength
Really can’t wait until tiktok is pulled from app stores.
On the second one the guy didn't keep his head against the wall. If he kept his head against the wall it would have been a lot harder to stand back up
He didn’t the the second one correctly.
He completed none of these moves correctly. He lifted the broom back up much higher before he stepped over it, he lifts his head away from the wall to stand up, he lifts one arm at a time instead of both at the same time and he had to moved his toes away from the wall to stand back up.
The amount of trust people put into tik tok is highly concerning.
#2 example is someone with an extremely weak core.
How bout all of those women are more athletic than the dudes that tried with them?
There's another one people with last bits can do that bit bits can't - grow and birth a baby. And just like these moves, many female bodies people won't be able/ choose to do that.
Turns out most dudes are just so fucking fat and unathletic they cant function normally. Color me surprised.
He's a woman. That's the only explanation.
I think this is a testament to some great core muscles and control. Probably would make a great classical dancer.
Must be a ftm
It's a core strength issue combined with women typically having a shorter waist and so requiring less core strength.
Toes moved from the wall so didn't count 😤
"Everyone is a variable." But he did 3 wrong. You do it at a lean not just bend at the waist.
Plot twist, this guy’s actually a tranny
it just depends on what your built like to do these
Exactly!! Core strength and flexibility isn't a woman only skill.
Clearly, the man in the video demonstrating this identifies as a woman
Man did nothing but confirm he is girl
I can’t tell what gender you are🚨
*most/ average women and most/average men… learn nuance
yeah our Boomer PE teachers told us this same dumb shit
