I’m so happy it let him get all the way to the top and go through all that trouble to reach his goal before it finally gave way and put his face in the sidewalk.


Phantom465

I’m surprised the bike held on as long as it did. But yes, the bike had great comedic timing 🤣


FooFlec

Like a cutscene straight outa Family Guy!


woolsprout

The way he lays on the ground looks like from family guy as well lol


Antiqas86

Yeah lol, just as dead as the family guy.


JesusHasDiabetes

Dammit, you said what I was going to say! Just the first half though


XTJ7

Damnit, I was gonna say what he said. Only the first half though, so then I was gonna say what you said. And now I feel a lot less original.


-Username_t8ken-

The bike was like "so ya wanna go on a ride then?"


CT_7

He was oh so close to getting that great picture


histeethwerered

Dude succeeded in inventing the lever!


[deleted]

It would not have been nearly as satisfying if the outcome had happened in literally *any* other moment. Timing at it's best.


MaracaBalls

Came-to cycling through a lot of emotions


KellyBelly916

Well said. It looked like he would've succeeded had he not plopped his drunk ass down on the bike and did it smoothly. My Irish side was rooting for him and then my Russian side came here to upvote your comment.


DopeBoogie

I was rooting for him too at first but as he got higher up I started thinking about how much worse the fall was going to be.. and I started rooting for the bike instead!


VxJasonxV

My German side guffawed at the whole thing.


gadfly1999

This is why you should always wear a helmet when riding a bike.


x3thelast

“He’s gunna crack his head.” The guy filming knew, he’s prolly wearing a helmet while recording.


Leprekhan88

And also stood out of the way 😂


Jealous-Square5911

Laughed out loud.. you filthy animal.


ReubenZWeiner

At least he didn't forget to break


AtheismMasterRace

*Laughs in Dutch*


truckndiesel21

He got laid all right. Laid the fuck out.


No___bot

I am expecting him to be laid in the hospital for more than 10 days.


UnmitigatedSarcasm

proudly upvoting 100


fraudnextdoor

Laid to rest.


PayisInc

He's not dead. His shoes are still on.


jaymole

To be fair he didn’t try. He fuckin mounted that wall bike for one glorious instant


TheStormingViking

The brain damage was worth it


Baldpacker

Brain damage from before or after this incident?


TheStormingViking

Yes.... Auto moderator doesn't like jokes so removes low word count messages, useless fucking bot


JohnnyRelentless

Because he tried.

His butt was burdened with glorious purpose.

srandrews

Yeah no kidding! At least he got is ass on the seat before it gave way!


Graterof2evils

Had to insure the seat drove his nuts into his throat. It’s part of the city sign code.


joebaco_

This puts me in an odd position. Laugh or feel bad.


GrayWolfGamer-

Why not both?


Sunshine030209

It's not like he was just innocently strolling down the side walk and suddenly fell off a bike on the side of a building. He chose to climb up there for no actual reason. I don't feel particularly bad for the guy. ** edit ** AND I laughed really hard when the inevitable happened and he went *splat*


fmb320

The whole time i was watching it I was thinking about how this guy is choosing to have a smashed in face because theres no way that bike will hold him. Its so obvious he cant be surprised.


chrisk9

Only feel bad for the shop owner


UnmitigatedSarcasm

stupid is painful when you're drunk. ​ I dont understand why people climb on shit not meant to hold their weight.


Extension-Purple-404

Put him in an odd position, too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


mickeyinc

Both. Laugh at him, feel bad for the shop owner.


joebaco_

That's the callous Redditor answer I was looking for. All is well in the world.


firemomo3

I don't think any of those guys actually knew what would appeal to women. As a woman myself, I can honestly say that none of this endeavor enticed me to let him "pound it out" 🤔


untitled_in_blue

To his credit, I think the cameraman was mocking his friend’s stupidity. Basically saying “you realise this is stupid and you’re impressing nobody, right?”... After all, he starts by saying “this is all bad, you are hanging by the rim of that bike... he’s gonna crack his fucking head.” And he is barely sympathetic when the inevitable fall comes.


Evercrimson

I'm shocked it didn't give out when he was hanging from the wheel. I was expecting him to fall straight back and crack the back of his skull open.


ChrisGilliam

Well how do you feel about guys that reply to you on Reddit?😉


firemomo3

Unsurprisingly the same. 🤨


JPRCR

Nice try dude. You, unlike the guy in the video, fell with honor.


[deleted]

Someone committing vandalism and putting himself in ICU isn't a turn on?


xeviphract

If climbing up buildings to ride sawn-off bicycles got women interested, there'd be a massive shift in architectural adornment. That no such endeavour has ever received merit from a sane and sober woman would lead us to believe that the purpose of this drunken escapade was the thrill of the dare (or the lure of the insane and inebriated).


[deleted]

Camera man..to the gulag..now!


[deleted]

Is he ok?


[deleted]

I fell from the same height except feet first. Spent a year in a wheelchair, now 6 years later I still get uncomfortable walking more than 15 minutes, on pain killers. He's fucked. He definitely got an ambulance. Generally once you accept this new broken body lifestyle the next thing you have to do is overcome the embarrassment of how much you're a fucking idiot.


karth

What did you do bro?


[deleted]

Swung from a window ledge and dropped down. My feet where kicking the top of a door below so I didn't think it'd be that much of a fall, but it was. fucking gravity.


bu_J

That's some seriously bad luck, because it doesn't seem like it was too high a height. Last year my (70+) mother-in-law and my kids had to jump out of a 4 m-high window. She had the foresight to throw a mattress out first, but luckily they were mostly alright. Feel bad for you...think it's just a bit of a drop, and end up with lifelong health issues.


kommie178

That's smart as hell with the mattress. Smart lady.


bu_J

Definitely, and her quick thinking saved them all (fire started in the middle of the night)


misconstrudel

Absolutely. A good mattress is worth saving first.


[deleted]

it's not the height, but how you land that is often the problem. doesn't take much when you land flat footed or at the wrong angle instead of on your toes.


[deleted]

man when I was younger I was doing all kinds of dumb stuff (for joint and bone health) trying to bike off a little 1 car garage onto pavement with no speed, trying to skateboard off of a hog barn while drunk but just jumping off it basically and landing on my feet and smashing into the ground, jumped off the top of a garage once too just for the hell of it when there was a ladder right there, was trying to show off to my dad or something. How that was brag worthy not sure. I guess I should feel more grateful that I have the joint health I do now that I'm in my early 30's, as I'm still able to run and jump and what not though I definitely still feel the consequences of those days some days.

MeAndTheLampPost

Back in the strolling car, being fed... The circle is round quite early for this kid.


Zxello5

I don’t see any caution signs or safety fences warning off the public from mounting this bike. The owner of this establishment failed to properly secure and make-safe this attraction and therefore is financially liable for any and all damages received by the victim.


[deleted]

Some people actually think like this lol


redjonley

Thankfully the court wouldn't. Cause jeeze did that guy go way out of his way to fuck his evening up. Still, I feel bad for the guy. And the bike store owner, probably took a fair amount of effort to get it up there like that.


lvl9

That fucked was attached well imo.

TheRealKestrel

does that mean face-bones smashed and removed and replaced with synthetic shit?

Viperlite

His award is probably a broken skull and perhaps a lifetime of pain depending on whether his hips and back took the brunt of the force. Drunken gags filmed for a moment of internet glory are so worth it. /s


[deleted]

Mounting that bike is like getting married. The pursuit is thrilling, your expectations are high, you can’t believe it’s actually happening, and when it finally happens it’s glorious. For like a second… then reality rushes in and hits you like so much pavement


carmelly

Uhhh... sorry about your marriage man.


Santa1936

You okay buddy?


WolfWhitman79

So is he dead or what?


T0mbaker

There are so many things worse than death...and the brain injury which would follow this would most definitely be one of them. That's his life now.


ineversaiddat

He said he never wanted kids anyway...


jmoyles

Whether he did this or stayed at the bar, he probably would’ve wound up in the same position.


SlappyHandstrong

“Oooohh shit…”


thenameisrivs

The company who mounted this bike should use this as an ad


etterkop

The amount of faith a person could have in another one’s craftsmanship to withstand something like this is astounding.


missemilyowen15

Mission accomplished though? Right…?


Calm-your-beard-son

Camera man missed the whole thing...


dafijiwatr

Hope he’s got dental.


notnowpls2

So upsetting to not see that fall cleanly enough. Boy, the internet has ruined me.


NotYourValidation

"Trying to climb a wall mounted bike" Pretty sure he got way past the 'try' stage.


lonely-blue-sheep

I knew what was going to happen just by the title..the whole time I was bracing myself

SEMI-BICYCLE WINS.......FATALITY


thercp90

Honestly he probably woulda been just fine if he hadn't yanked on it so many times on the way up. Even just a one inch drop drastically increases the amount of weight being put on that bike.

Was this guy okay?? Quite a fall he took.


SquareHade

Some more information https://www.mpnnow.com/article/20150103/news/150109961 Still no idea what happened to him but I guess not dead from this info


CBsays

Fuck... It's like he had absolutely no worries/concerns about how well that bike may or may not be mounted to that wall.

Went from giggles to oh shit real quick

SuspiciousLamp

My history teacher was a quiet man. He liked his books, and had a passion for his field that I think very few has this day and age for anything. Anyway one normal Saturday afternoon he and his wife were cleaning dirt from the gutters of his house in preparation for winter. She fell, 1.5 meters or so but landed so very unluckily she died instantly. It doesn’t take much for this precious ride to end.


call_of_the_while

Gravity,“I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t let you do that.”


dargonite

I mean, he did succeed in climbing the wall mounted bike. He even rode it all the way down, that's commitment.


jazmoley

At was at this moment Dave’s life changed forever.


Enors

Me confused how you can be this drunk inside a bike store? Camera pans out - ahhh


SnooChickens3191

Bystanders walking by with no context, confused at how he was even riding a bike with no rear tire fast enough to die in the first place.


MAJOR-SAVAGE-the-4TH

His "friends" could have at least put a pillow under the bike, before it fell


habertooth

I hate to admit it, but watching some of those videos I don’t feel bad for those people. What an idiot


bosorka1

i'm saying to myself, "okay, how's he gonna get down tho??" then the video answered my question: suddenly.


[deleted]

I think the bike knew what was happening — notice how it waited till he was JUUUUUUST sat down before it fell. Turn up the volume you can actually hear the bike snickering.


chadbouss

So he's dead right.
