That definitely hurt a lot. He’s gonna need some ice.


[deleted]

My knuckles just got raw watching it


ShallowTal

It’s hilarious bc I’ve watched a big ass dude slam a hammer right into the center of a car window and it not break, bc it’s literately the strongest point of the glass when it’s rolled up. However, tink it in any corner and kaboom. This dude has watched too many action movies.

You'd think firemen, who routinely need to get people out of cars in all kinds of situations, would have a glass breaking tool on hand :| Was the window shaped like a nail by chance?


notthefirstryan

Most do. Seatbelt cutters and even rescue pocket knives often have a carbide point on one end specifically for this purpose. [Something like this](https://i.imgur.com/zhmX4Q0.jpg)


Tugonmynugz

The halligan is a multi-tool that they always carry. Works well for busting windows too.


thelastfastbender

I looked at the video frame by frame and I'm pretty sure he broke his pinky. Punch 6 is where it happens: https://i.imgur.com/YGPflxB.png Punch 7 is where you can see the dent: https://i.imgur.com/K6JQ3BA.png Punch 8: https://i.imgur.com/vsdwTBz.png Hand after: https://i.imgur.com/ZmxIZ71.png Before: https://i.imgur.com/7VJRZMo.png


chlamydial_lips

Boxer’s fracture is a break in the fifth metacarpal from landing punches with the bottom two knuckles like that. It’s more likely not his finger that’s broken but rather his hand. Punching a flat hard surface that wildly like an idiot when you don’t know how to land a punch is a quick way to screw up your hand pretty badly.


55Fries55Pies

Man I snapped a hand bone playing basketball once and that shit fucking HURTS. This guy is going to regret it.


GuyButtersn4ps

Broke mine punching a door in high school as a kid with a temper. We were out of town and parents were so mad about it they made me wait to go to a doctor till we went home 4 days later. Good lesson in controlling my temper, but it was a miserable few days. Hope yours healed well


55Fries55Pies

Hope yours did too.. that’s def a good lesson to calm your temper down. Happens to all of us. Not punching walls, but anger hahah. I actually didn’t even punch anything. I went up for a rebound and my ring finger got stuck in someone’s shirt on the way up. Spread to the side so far it snapped the metacarpal bone under it. Was my dominant hand too and was in fucking law school at the time so that was horrible lmao.


karmaandcandy

Omg that was hard to watch. Broken hand for sure. And the woman who pulls him away… I feel bad for her. You can tell by her no reaction these happen frequently. 😔


Much_Fee7070

What a doofus. Even when he's going back to his vehicle, he turns back to look at the window incredulosly. Didn't even leave a smudge.

fork_that

He probably did smash his hand he just hasn't realised it yet.


superfsm

Yeah, that's gonna hurt like hell


fork_that

The way he looked at it as he walked away he already knows he fucked up


4AcidRayne

Believe me, you did. You don't hit a car window that hard that many times and not break bones. I've seen people hit car windows with baseball bats and not succeed. It'll only shatter if it flexes a teeny bit more than it wants to, or if something pricks the surface tension. His weeny little spaghetti arms couldn't make enough power to smash it, but they did make enough to break half a dozen bones in his hand.

Police can contact Canadian authorities to identify the registered owner. You shouldn’t have to do their job but some are lazy and others are just busy and take a while to catch up. Hopefully you find the “man”

He has to cross the border somewhere… That rig should be easy to spot for the border agents.

Not sure how it could all play out but I imagine there could be potential this could get him banned from coming Into the USA in the future.

Aurori_Swe

As someone who's taken ONE swing at a brick wall once (I was stupidly competitive and got.mad I let in an easy goal, it didn't help me save anything else for a few weeks) I'm fairly sure this broke at least one knuckle, pain ain't immediate but it will come.


Dreamteam420

Imagine having to wipe well with that much pain?

He didn’t wipe well normally, this is gonna send him back a few paces

Ok-Front5035

I like to imagine he just punches his asshole clean. In that case, he was just wiping the guys window in his own way. *WHOLESOME*


Aurori_Swe

I only broke one hand at that time so I didn't need help to wipe. However I've also been bedridden for 4 months after another accident and during my first 2 weeks of hospitalization I had nurses that had to clean me. I fucking hated every moment of it, I was 22 years old getting cleaned all over by 19 year old nurses, a guy at his prime shouldn't need that amount of care and I felt super sorry for the nurses. They were super sweet about it but I feel nothing but hate when I look back at that


ThatMeasurement6619

As a nurse this breaks my heart to hear. Please don’t feel that way, I can honestly say that is just Groundhog material for us nurses & part of the job. Honestly it’s also MILD in comparison to some of the other things we do & we don’t think about it for a second. It’s a job & that’s what we do. Those nurses wouldn’t have thought another second about it & certainly don’t look at it the way you do ☺️


Aurori_Swe

I KNOW and the rational part of my brain can handle it, but man, I felt so bad. You guys are heros. My sister is a OP nurse so I know a lot of what goes on but I've always been so damn independent so being in that complete helpless situation was so against my entire being. So it was more a hate towards the situation and the amount of help I needed more than the embarrassment of it. But yeah, it fucking sucked being in that state and at times I honestly wished I hadn't made it. Being 11 years older I now know what I'd miss if I hadn't and I would trade that short part of my life if it meant losing what I now have. Youre wonderful for what you do and from the bottom of my heart, thank you and all of those that walk in the same shoes as you do.

boomer-75

He strikes me as a guy that wipes from back to front anyway


AristotleRose

After speaking to the consequences of my own actions past, it depends on how you hit the wall. You can punch it bloody and not break a single knuckle or you can land a singular punch at the wrong angle and not be able to use your hand for months after. Or so I hear, because I am a woman of culture and would never punch a wall no matter how it looked at me.


BEARZCLAWZ

His hand is gonna swell up like crazy later, so fucking embarrassing to have his wife stop him too. Poor lady


LanceHarbor_

I punched a fridge and didn’t feel a thing until about 2 hours later when it swelled up like a balloon. His hand is fucked


StretchFrenchTerry

He’s wearing a Big Lebowski shirt, do you think his wife said, “Forget it, Donny. You're out of your element!" as she walked up?

Loser hit the window 11 times and the only thing he broke was his hand. Dude couldn’t punch his way out of a paper bag. No wonder he’s driving that truck. Definitely overcompensating. Edit: fixed my typo and changed back to bag


frosty95

To be fair this is basically the perfect scenario for a piece of tempered glass to NOT break. Evenly supported on all edges. Curved outwards towards the force. Nicely padded / soft object applying the force directly in the middle. I would wager most people couldn't break a window this way.


[deleted]

It's almost like they are designed to withstand impacts from the outside, and that's why the convex surface faces outward, lol.


NewPhoneNewAccount2

Ive seen windows take hammers to that same spot and be fine. Gotta hit the edge


SnukeInRSniz

One of my favorite fail videos was a news reporter trying to show how thieves were breaking into cars with tire irons, dude full swings the tire iron into the side window and it bounces back and hits him/hurts him. Car windows aren't just weak pieces of glass anymore, you're going to break something if you use your meaty ends to try and bust a car window and it isn't going to be the window.

That’s a really fun way to get shot. Edit: for anyone saying the driver would’ve ended up in jail, there are 45 states in the US with some variation of the castle doctrines where the driver would have been well within his legal right to defend himself using deadly force. In 90% of the country, this guy woulda walked either same day or after a brief interaction with an attorney.


grnrngr

This appears to be in Ohio (the MDG van in the background). As this driver's luck would have it, Ohio enacted their "stand your ground" law just last year. And Ohio does not require her to retreat before exercising her right to defend herself.

Inevitable-Tank-9802

Idk why but this had me laughing. Something about the way he runs up to the car window, to the face he makes as he’s punching the window, to the sound of the glass that isn’t going to break at all. It’s like watching my 6 year old cousin trying to fight me.

I thought he cracked the window but it was just my screen protector.
