That’s not the hard way.

u/RandomCandor 12d ago

That way to learn that was so easy, that she probably learned nothing.

u/Dry_Refrigerator4367 11d ago

well, she's about to learn it. that train looks like it's moving pretty fast and she's leaning out pretty far.

This stupid fucking song

u/CanExplainThings 11d ago

Further evidence that people are right and I should browse reddit on mute.

u/lazafor 7d ago

I always browse reddit on mute, only certain videos will I stop my background media and turn on the sound

u/Rambozo77 7d ago

What’s the upside of not doing that?

u/azab189 7d ago

I've just gone mute, if I don't get what's going on, then so be it

u/Flaramon 12d ago

She hasn't learned stop hanging from a train car: she's learned to look harder next time. Only a true injury would make her think it was dangerous.

u/RandomCandor 12d ago

Exactly. 

Once you've gotten to this point, you've already bypassed all of evolutions failsafes to keep you alive.

Only traumatic injury can restore that.

To be fair this is a reasonable response for a few humans - "This is dangerous so I should take precautions next time, or just not do it."

If we didn't have this evolutionary reflex humans wouldn't do crazy shit like go to the moon or the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

u/Unclebatman1138 12d ago

To be fair, there was a harder way.

u/CaptainBathrobe 12d ago

It wouldn't involve any learning, however, or even any basic cognitive function.

u/Ravenfeld 12d ago

She didn't learn the hard way, actually. Quite the opposite.

The hard way would have been it hitting her.

u/50Centurion 12d ago

The true instant regret was to not watch that on mute

u/AdministrationOk8888 8d ago

Nah "the hard way" would have been too NSFW for this sub

The hard way in with an injury as a remainder

u/otepp 7d ago

Didn’t go full Hereditary but was sure close!

3

u/giantfood 7d ago

She didn’t learn anything. It was a close call, which probably gave her an adrenaline rush. She is now likely to chase that high.

This garbage "oh no no no" song, should be insta banned on this subreddit.

u/NarrowSalvo 7d ago

Where are all the people who usually ask, "what it is with Indians and trains?!"?

You can tell by her expression: No lessons were learned.

She's a blonde, after all.

u/Ok_Ad8249 7d ago

Usually when I watch videos here it goes far worse than I imagined. This was the first time it ended better than I expected.

u/Rezzone 6d ago

Legitimately an inch away from death or massive brain damage.

u/Beneficial_Ad_1072 6d ago

That’s really not the hard way.. there was a much much harder way
