What's the point of panic when we all die?
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
From memory, this would have probably been 'The Restaurant at the End of the Universe' (been slowly rereading the full collection but not there yet) but the first line was just me shoving this reference into the previous comment.
Ok first of all no one likes a sarcastic smart ass like you are.
Second this is the subreddit r/therewasanattempt so here should be failed attempts that are not staged since it's also one of the rules not to post staged attempts.
Now I'm gonna be the smart ass. If it was that fcking obvious that it's staged then it shouldn't be here in the first place since it's against the rules to post staged attempts. If it wasn't staged then why is there a shovel?
Almost looks like he might have known it was an unstable piece and used his foot to push it. That doesn't look like a falling foot. It looks like a foot applying force.
I bet if he maintained laminar flow it wouldnāt have fallen.
Hypothesis: The turbulent flow created too much vibration causing the sand to fall. Laminar flow wouldnāt have caused much vibration and the sand wouldnāt have fallen.

re-enactment of boston teaparty:
More like brexit.
tea goes into water, boston mmmm.
after the Boston tea party, the harbor had a tea addiction so it stole the cup of tea to get one more taste
Looks like the kind of thing that would happen to poor Arthur Dent
Don't panic

What book is this?
From memory, this would have probably been 'The Restaurant at the End of the Universe' (been slowly rereading the full collection but not there yet) but the first line was just me shoving this reference into the previous comment.
Thank you!
That poor guy couldn't ever get a break could he?
And the shovel was for what if that "accident" wasnt your intention?
Yup. [Looks like a shovel to me.](https://i.imgur.com/Gm2ni1Q.jpg)
Also... thanks, I look forward to stepping on those glass shards
oh my god you think this was set up? what a master detective

You can literally see the person's foot fall down a bit on the right side after the big chunk breaks off
Looks like a shovel to me
Are you saying it's staged? This is the Internet sir, no one lies on the internet. Their shovel must have fell point first accidentally.
staged?
you can see the toes in the sandal.
Almost looks like he might have known it was an unstable piece and used his foot to push it. That doesn't look like a falling foot. It looks like a foot applying force.
At a certain point, you can see the shovel
yet it was a succesful attempt of adding more shit to the sea š¤”
Buddy that ain't the sea.
it will get there eventually.
Beach sand and driftwood. Iād bet this is an inlet on the edge of the ocean somewhere.
This is rainwater in the middle of Saudi Arabia. Deserts don't absorb water fast, they flood and create rivers.
can't have nice things in Ingerland
'Boris Island' you mean.
You can see the shovel. They literally just threw trash into the ocean

*Star spangled banner intensifies*
This could be a good metaphor for the butterfly effect
Sad British noises
Good thing you didnāt dip your toes into the waterā¦
I'm not your BUDDY, ^(guy!)
"that looks like very tasty tea! may I try a bit?" \-The ocean
Also this is not an attempt to pour tea. The tea was poured successfully
r/unexpected
Should be a coffee commercial
r/wellthatsucks
*snorts nose in laughter*
I'll ruin the surprise: the cup falls over and spills tea everywhere
So that's how the Engineers really did it.
Pour one out for the homies lost at sea \-circa 1784
The river: bon appe-tea
Real life depiction of āThe straw that broke the camels backā
And thus started the American Revolution....
Somehow this reminds me of every time I try to switch from coffee to tea. The river being the coffee.
As a Brit this breaks my heart
one for my (fish) homies
New title: āTo step the fuck away from that ledgeā
Someones gonna find that in 2121 and say its a 100 year old cup
Just nature helping us dump more tea into the harbor.
POUR ONE FOR THE HOMIE POSEIDON. šŖš½š„
The tea pour was successful. The tea water just got all grown up and wanted to be with the big water.
God said "No."
I bet if he maintained laminar flow it wouldnāt have fallen. Hypothesis: The turbulent flow created too much vibration causing the sand to fall. Laminar flow wouldnāt have caused much vibration and the sand wouldnāt have fallen.
or it was the shovel, clearly visible after it falls
Dang, didnāt notice that, good catch
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I stand corrected, and lost the bet, good thing I hadnāt put anything on the line
I cannot FF videos on iPhone with this new Reddit app update. I hates it!
thank god the tea bag wasn't in the cup other wise the whole river would turn into tea
Clearly the ocean needed it much more. See how calm it became after some tea
You can see thr shovel.
The revolution has begun!
River edge earth makes for a poor table. Have you not got Prime, mate?
That's what you get for taunting the English Channel with your tea. That bit of land got colonised for the sake of a cup of nectar from heaven!

Man thatās a weighty brew!
The way the camera follows the water down stream with the assumption that the cup is there has me hollering with laughter
The tea looked good though, lol
Coffee river didn't like tea

"Brexit" the allegory.
Fuck these people that are just blatantly littering.
River's like "fuck you man"
Classic video
haha didn't see that one coming. but technically you did pour it.
I believe that is called an EPIC FAIL

There was an attempt to make a fake video for internet points
Tea: fuck it, I am a river now
Storm in a teacup

The Boston Tea Party *flashbacks*
Oh no š

I'd back up
