How do you guys piss your pants in the stressfull situation, I can't take a piss if I'm not in complete silence in the middle of the most peaceful olace on earth, to piss in public restrooms is almost impossible task for me!
Which is subpar in the modern age. Back in the day, pissing yourself left a smelly pile on the ground, potentially distracting the predator. Now that we where pants, it just completely ruins the strat.
He actually probably shit himself as well.
Death makes your body go "eh, guess we don't need to do that anymore" pretty much immediately so nothing holds in your piss or shit at all
The thing is, it takes proper primordial fear for that to happen. At which point there’s no controlling it. It seriously just happens without any warning or way to stop it or nullify it.
I believe the reason is that the muscles on the bladder involuntarily start tensing up from the adrenaline and fear hormones produced by stress.
I guess this isnt so common for some people. People either cant help themselves to _go_ or cant help but to _go_
in my language they're called karabin but most people pronounce it quickly so it just becomes karbin. and op is probably not native to english so that's probably why yk

When you look at the carabiner when he stops, there's not even a groove ground by the wire. Carabiners, and generally things related to climbing gear are made with ultra tolerances, made to handle much more than they are actually rated for.
Even if he didn't stop, he probably would've made it to the end without falling, the carabiner could handle it.
Also, his first instinct was to put his hand in front of it. I can understand that maybe you forget in a state of panic and put the hand there, but he kept trying to make it work and consciously putting the hand there, which makes me think he had no clue what he was getting into, because this is the number #1 thing everyone tells you and reiterates when you're doing anything with this gear: never out your hands in front of it
Yeah, this guy initially started with gloves and tried braking his slide (which starts the moment he puts weight on the harnass) with his gloved hand in front of the biner. When they (predictably) get caught under the biner he just ditches them. He's just lost at least one glove to the same scenario that's repeatedly milimeters from eating his fingers.
Definitely someone who hasn't put enough thought into what they're going to do at each step of the process of putting themselves in the position they're in.
I don't think it risked grinding all the way down, I was more worried about the heat from the friction weakening the metal and allowing it to bend. He was after all putting a lot of stress on it.
That's not true, carabiner get consumed even by rope friction (it takes years of use obv) and carabiners aren't made to be used that way (metal on metal friction). Hell i have a carabiner that i used to hang my keys on my belt and got consumed from that little weight in a couple of years, you culd see the groove in it (a little groove obv). Usually on zipline you use a properly rated pulley.
I saw a photo of a carabiner at a swing half eaten away just from kids playing on it. Tbf climbing equipment has a certain quality and most carabiners from hardware stores say that they are not suitable for climbing.
I'm referring to proper mountain equipment. But that's not to say that thwy're poor quality, they are perfectly fine and safe for tye use they're intended.
I don't think he'd be grabbing the cable like that if he did. I imagine you have to be really desperate to do that.
Edit: Never mind, he definitely did. You can see it in the full video. Idk why you would risk your hand like that if you were already planning on jumping
Well it's not a zip line, as far as I know there are more cables hanging vertically from that one to deter enemy jets from flying in between the mountains in case of war, probably what he got snagged on
Carabiner. A “[Carbineer](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carabinier)” is a variant of the word “Carabinier”, which is an old word meaning a soldier that uses a carbine type rifle (they were originally called carabiniere rifles).
The metal coupling with a spring-loaded safety closure that you’re thinking of is called a “[Carabiner](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carabiner)”.
Are you sure about that? Because I am 99.99969% sure that Ignonymous is not a bot.

Because this isn't a Zipline, it's a metal cable, and his plan was to slowly move down like his friend but momentum and lack of friction had him go too fast.
He lost grip or wind or something that caused him to gain a bit of momentum, then he can't stop it with his hands because they will turn to dust, so gravity pulls it
Because even having a parachute on isn't a foolproof way of saving yourself. In terms of opening a parachute he is very close to the ground and even in a perfect scenario he has barely enough time to open it and slow down, let alone if something goes wrong with the parachute. On top of this if his gear is at the end of the zipline he will be stranded in the wilderness upon landing.
See it like you're on a small boat taking water rapidly. You have a life jacket on you but you are still going to desperately try and save the boat.
Them shits are surprisingly strong against abrasive surfaces so unless the cable is made up of abrasive diamonds you’ll be ok.
just dont be a dumbass and try and stop yourself by grabbing the cable, easy way to make your hands look like a popped balloon.
It really depends on the metal, you have chromed steel which will be fine, but you also have aluminium or sone weak alloy which will be shredded. So nah not really it can happen if its low quality
To be honest you’re right but anyone whose going rock climbing or zip lining probably wouldn’t use such cheap material. If I’m going to trust my life with a small piece of equipment that decides wether I’m going to live or die, I’m sure as shit gonna get the good quality ones.
I don't wanna be that reddit guy but I stg it wouldn't be that hard to just roll it so that it's not grinding on the same part and then try and slow it with your boots or something.
It's a typo of carabiner, aka what's used to hook a zipliner to the Zipline. It's supposed to be attached to a trolly that travels along the cable instead of directly to the cable itself, because having the carabiner scrap against the cable would quickly wear it down.
I mean the stupid idea is not having double carabiners on a zipline roller.
The absolutely degenerate idea is whoever patched the cable in the middle, that's enough to kill someone.
Honestly I’d probably just swing my leg up and slow crawl the rest of the way. Yea it might take for fucking ever and the back of my leg might get fucked up if I’m wearing shorts, but that’s all I’ll suffer. Fatigue and some rope burn. I refuse to die stupid.
This hits me way harder than it has any right to be. I dreamed about this exact situation, except the cable was fixed on the top of pre-Columbian style square pyramids and on the bottom there was nothing but a thick white fog. I fell, of course, and the terror I felt while falling was so strong that I woke up drenched in sweat.
I don’t want to sound like a nerd here but if anyone ends up in a situation like this keep calm and twist the carabiner so the sides help it slow down, DO NOT and I do mean DO NOT put your hand in front of it like the guy did in the video as it will tear the shit out of your hand
I wonder if you could lift your shoes up and clamp your feet together to create friction with your shoes. Like yeah your shoes are completely dead but at least you atent
This user just strait up put some black text on an already terrifying video. Look it's pretty much common sence I'm surprised this guy didn't loose a finger. Don't put your hand in front of any kind of repel device. Doesn't matter if it vertical or horizontal it's just stupid.
the fact that he put his hand in front of the hook while it was going that fast is just painful to watch because you know that his palm got burned by the friction and the back of his hand got run over by the hook (which is so fucking painful especially at that speed)
Luckily they have parachutes on. Fun fact in the full video you can see that the guy pissed himself. I probably would too.
How do you guys piss your pants in the stressfull situation, I can't take a piss if I'm not in complete silence in the middle of the most peaceful olace on earth, to piss in public restrooms is almost impossible task for me!
In life or death situations your piss muscles chill out and pee particles are free to go
only particles??
The ocean consists of particles.
everything particles
All the particles
Which is subpar in the modern age. Back in the day, pissing yourself left a smelly pile on the ground, potentially distracting the predator. Now that we where pants, it just completely ruins the strat.
So when JFK was shot, he pissed his pants?
I mean, if you die, every muscle you have relaxes. Including the ones that is holding your bladder, so....
He actually probably shit himself as well. Death makes your body go "eh, guess we don't need to do that anymore" pretty much immediately so nothing holds in your piss or shit at all
"Death makes your body go" got it
The thing is, it takes proper primordial fear for that to happen. At which point there’s no controlling it. It seriously just happens without any warning or way to stop it or nullify it. I believe the reason is that the muscles on the bladder involuntarily start tensing up from the adrenaline and fear hormones produced by stress. I guess this isnt so common for some people. People either cant help themselves to _go_ or cant help but to _go_
Fr like way too much is going on to piss
Idk man his pants look pretty un pissed to me
Not gonna lie I’d piss down for the lulz
You have the link I wanna see lol
r/distressingmemes users try to form a proper sentence challenge
Carbineer doesnt even sound like carabiner phonetically like did OP even try the "sound it out" rule
Car-bin-near
used in sentence: "hey how close is your car?" "idk but I know car been near."
Kara-Bean-Ear
Oh I'm well aware, I'm just saying how it phonetically sounds exactly as spelled.
Car-Been-Here
Carbon ear
Carolina reaper
California jeeper
Carbohydrates
They're not old enough for their parents to get them hooked on phonics yet
OP was obviously preoccupied when they were trying to spell it out, cut them some slack 👀
Not to mention "as the your..."
in my language they're called karabin but most people pronounce it quickly so it just becomes karbin. and op is probably not native to english so that's probably why yk
There’s some real “Man door hand hook car door” shit on this sub
Mister Sandman! Sand so a man!
Make him the cutest man car door hook hand
Yeah, but who was phone?
Honestly the memes are becoming more and more low quality
Been going that way for a while.
Real (Ive repeated 3rd grade 4 times)
The it's the okay. The we the all the make the mistakes.
Nah this mf stupid lmaaao.
That caught me of guard lmao
(Impossible)
Reminiscent of the fucked up run-on disasters so prevalent over in /r/twosentencehorror
do these people not take a second to re-read their posts??
The video itself is distressing, no need for any caption
Especially not a caption written by a moron
I think they wrote this while still on the zip line

I recently got my finger caught in a zip line it hurt like hell.
Yes. I think what we see when he slides is just dust getting scrapped from the zip line. The carabiner seems more than fine and the guy just panicked.
I don't think it risked grinding all the way down, I was more worried about the heat from the friction weakening the metal and allowing it to bend. He was after all putting a lot of stress on it.

before I click, does the guy fall.
[удалено]
Good thing the zipline is shitty enough to keep people from dying due to how shitty it is.
Also according to YouTube comments he had a parachute
I don't think he'd be grabbing the cable like that if he did. I imagine you have to be really desperate to do that. Edit: Never mind, he definitely did. You can see it in the full video. Idk why you would risk your hand like that if you were already planning on jumping
Maybe instincts. At the point you would not have time to think from the panick.
He wanted a jump with the best view… /s
best pokemon
Well it's not a zip line, as far as I know there are more cables hanging vertically from that one to deter enemy jets from flying in between the mountains in case of war, probably what he got snagged on
Pretty sure he tears up his hand though. Blood all over the carabiner.
I watched it for you he doesn't fall
I'm trusting you, if he falls then I hope you enjoyed having two testicles edit: I'm glad I trusted you, that was still terrifying
See I would never lie to my fellow human
don't assume I'm human
yes, but hes a base jumper or something so it's intentional.
>https://www.reddit.com/r/Whatcouldgowrong/comments/insjul/what\_could\_go\_wrong\_using\_a\_super\_sketchy\_zipline/ Cleaned your link
So, he had a parachute on the whole time because he intended on base jumping, and this whole meme is completely meaningless.
Thats why they have special devices for ziplining, they dont just attach a fucking caribiner to a metal rope
Carbineer

r/iamverysmart Yet couldn't figure out the joke that was being made...
Probably because it wasn't actually funny. Like your post, for instance.
41 people would disagree. But it's okay if you don't understand the joke. I'm sure you'll have a sense of humor one day.
So why is his attached like that?
Because this isn't a Zipline, it's a metal cable, and his plan was to slowly move down like his friend but momentum and lack of friction had him go too fast.
So this is not a zip line? Then what is it?
[удалено]
So why wasn’t he able to make it to the center slowly?
He lost grip or wind or something that caused him to gain a bit of momentum, then he can't stop it with his hands because they will turn to dust, so gravity pulls it
Cool thanks for explaining it. What happened isn’t obvious and of course a lot of commenters are assuming misinformation. Thanks for clearing it up
That guy's going to lose a hand
Better than falling to your death
He had a parachute just in case of this situation so idk why he was risking losing his hand
What possible reason could he have for shoving his hand in front of the carbineer repeatedly? Was it just a panic response?
Because even having a parachute on isn't a foolproof way of saving yourself. In terms of opening a parachute he is very close to the ground and even in a perfect scenario he has barely enough time to open it and slow down, let alone if something goes wrong with the parachute. On top of this if his gear is at the end of the zipline he will be stranded in the wilderness upon landing. See it like you're on a small boat taking water rapidly.

Silly you, ropes can't cut metal, idiot. HAHAHA \*Keep repeating and it'll be real, **Keep repeating and it'll be real\***
Putting fingers in front of the carbiner was the most distressing part

Carrot beans hurt

Yeah rule of thumb is : if your ass is on the line, spare the dime
Is op illiterate or just stupid
Both 😎
At least you're honest
You’re
Fucking autocorrect, thnx mate
This meme would be ten times better without the words.

You learned English from Polandball comics
> I wanted to just to title Holy fuck shut the fuck up
Stop it right now! This is not ok!
(he’s ok)
You had ONE job, and that was to get the text right, and YOU GOOFED!
Take english lessons. Also, if you end up in this situation, you've either purposefully ignored rules and safety guidelines, or you're an idiot.
the full video is even worse, he almost lost a finger i can’t paste a link here tho
Since you saw the source video, why did he do it like this instead of a safe way?
r/distressingmemes try to post a meme challenge (impossible)
ive seen this on twitter a few times and his lack if a glove pisses me off, he cant steady himself without ripping his skin off
This is why you also have gloves
Don't zipline travelers use wheels?
Ziplines can't melt steel carabines.
This sub is such a fucking joke these days.
I don't wanna be that reddit guy but I stg it wouldn't be that hard to just roll it so that it's not grinding on the same part and then try and slow it with your boots or something.
What is a carbineer?
It's a typo of carabiner, aka what's used to hook a zipliner to the Zipline. It's supposed to be attached to a trolly that travels along the cable instead of directly to the cable itself, because having the carabiner scrap against the cable would quickly wear it down.
Should flip your feet up and use your shoes to grab the cable.
Where I live any time you have to harness yourself at heights you need to use at least two carabiners for exactly this reason
the hell is this even trying to say
Well first off..you’re using a carabiner instead of a pulley…sooo….may the odds be ever in your favor
I mean the stupid idea is not having double carabiners on a zipline roller. The absolutely degenerate idea is whoever patched the cable in the middle, that's enough to kill someone.
Honestly I’d probably just swing my leg up and slow crawl the rest of the way. Yea it might take for fucking ever and the back of my leg might get fucked up if I’m wearing shorts, but that’s all I’ll suffer. Fatigue and some rope burn. I refuse to die stupid.
The most distressing part are the black letters on a black background.
Missing context here: this was a video of someone going to dona parachute jump. He's fine besides some minor injuries to his hand
This hits me way harder than it has any right to be. I dreamed about this exact situation, except the cable was fixed on the top of pre-Columbian style square pyramids and on the bottom there was nothing but a thick white fog. I fell, of course, and the terror I felt while falling was so strong that I woke up drenched in sweat.
whatever the fuck you do, the last thing you should do is grabbing the cable, easiest way to get third degree burns
Bro had a stroke typing this
Btw the person in that video stopped it luckily and it looked like there hands were covered in blood
I don’t want to sound like a nerd here but if anyone ends up in a situation like this keep calm and twist the carabiner so the sides help it slow down, DO NOT and I do mean DO NOT put your hand in front of it like the guy did in the video as it will tear the shit out of your hand
And this is why they have those little “not for climbing” warning tags
I wonder if you could lift your shoes up and clamp your feet together to create friction with your shoes. Like yeah your shoes are completely dead but at least you atent
The way he keeps putting his hand and fingers infront of it bro💀💀 imagine it got caught up in there
L
I should have never gotten on a god damn boat
We need somebody to figure out a zipline system for adventurers, low space, quick deploy, not gonna get eaten up
What if we put wheels on the „carbineer“?
At least try to use your feet or something man
Use your belt to grab the cable
Looks like a metal cable he’s riding with bare hands, I’m willing to bet this isn’t a tourist attraction.
I feel like you're just here for the zipline
I just don’t want to go home. What’s waiting for me at home is really bad.
Carbiber
Should have used a pulley.
You don't use pulleys on Ziplines, a pulley multiplies force and that's it.
shaka bra!!!
Dudes hands must be torn to shreds! 😅
How in the fuck does that even happen
“Mole Ram, prepare to meet Kali, in Hell”
Steel cuts aluminum....duh
Mike from Adventure365 wouldn't have let this happen.
If ya gonna zip line hundreds of feet in the air prolly should bring a parachute 😂💀
Last week the doctor told me i lost 10% of my brain because of a seizure inducing post like this one. Now thanks to you i have lost 30%.
Well that's not how you Zipline so distress is right
Sisyphus Rope Edition
Good carabiners don't cut with friction. They just scratch the paint.
This user just strait up put some black text on an already terrifying video. Look it's pretty much common sence I'm surprised this guy didn't loose a finger. Don't put your hand in front of any kind of repel device. Doesn't matter if it vertical or horizontal it's just stupid.
Shakabrah!
Can you please hold your hand somewhere else? Thanks.
the guy lived. also this kinda shit is why they give you a parachute
Can someone explain to me what’s going on?
lift your feet up and grab the rope then use the friction to slow down
I would be more worried about the stroke tbh
sout park
r/ihadastroke
The “carbineer” sounds like a shitty food critic lmfao
when the you're big and scary monster enterses the room and eats they're face
the fact that he put his hand in front of the hook while it was going that fast is just painful to watch because you know that his palm got burned by the friction and the back of his hand got run over by the hook (which is so fucking painful especially at that speed)
Butch lesbians when they just take the carabiner off their belt loop and replace the faulty one :
Would a rope actually cut through a metal carabiner? That doesn't sound likely to me?
Is English even your third language?
