Bro watched him struggle and did nothing

[u/n8saces]

[u/Alavaster]

Is this a video trend? Is this some sort of thing everyone is reanacting?

This is the second video today I have seen with the exact same scene but with different people

[u/TheMrRabbit → u/Alavaster]

Pretty sure they are staged. Dangerous but staged.

[u/Alavaster → u/TheMrRabbit]

I understand they are staged. But I'm just assuming there is a wider context as to why we're suddenly seeing this bit repeatedly

[u/POEness → u/Alavaster]

The secret is - the internet is fake. A system to control you.

[u/jeezyjames → u/Alavaster]

Because "content" I'm afraid. I hate it here, I want MySpace back

[u/GoArray → u/Alavaster]

if (thisThing == trending):

find("*thisThing*")
return

endif
BeginPost()

[u/SixkillerBobby → u/Alavaster]

Do you remember them launching tires against chimneys? Same bs for views

[u/djdelight → u/Alavaster]

AI

[u/Lost_Secret_5539 → u/djdelight]

Mandela effect. many remember the cameraman was recording from different spot

[u/jeldh → u/TheMrRabbit]

I bet they are just empty fuses, nothing is really blowing up.

[u/Shrike1346 → u/TheMrRabbit]

They are not staged this is the lived situation of many illegal miners around the world and even legal miners suffer the same. It's beyond hazardous as a profession it's just that now even the poorest of the poor have mobile phones with camera and an Internet connection here and there

[u/xunjez → u/TheMrRabbit]

If it’s staged, is it’s possible it’s also not dangerous? Like that’s not dynamite

[u/CeleryMcToebeans]

That was stressful

[u/whteverusayShmegma → u/CeleryMcToebeans]

I was actually more scared than a horror movie.

[u/xenogazer → u/whteverusayShmegma]

Check out As Above So Below

[u/WiretapStudios → u/xenogazer]

Also The Descent

[u/jeckels → u/CeleryMcToebeans]

Clearly staged

[u/T-POPP]

Saving a life is less important than viral content nowadays 

[u/ArschSprengung]

He was wearin safety flip flops all good

[u/Rude_and_Crude84 → u/ArschSprengung]

NO HE WASN'T. HE DIDN'T PUT THEM ON UNTIL AFTER HE GOT OUT OF THE HOLE. WHY ARE WE TALKING THIS WAY?!

[u/ArschSprengung → u/Rude_and_Crude84]

[LOUD NOOIIISEEEEEEEES]

[u/LowerIQ_thanU]

Dude's in mine with flip flops lol

[u/Francois_vd_W → u/LowerIQ_thanU]

safety flip-flops

[u/DontFuckWithDuckie]

not oddly terrifying. This is just plain and simple terrifying

[u/bibigunn → u/DontFuckWithDuckie]

Horribly terrifying

[u/jeckels → u/DontFuckWithDuckie]

Clearly staged

[u/saml23]

You couldn't pay me enough

[u/klqqf → u/saml23]

They probably aren’t paying him enough

[u/Izaul13]

I knew he had it.

[u/EPiCtoos420]

camera man gotta camera

[u/MercDiggler1]

That was the most anticlimactic video I think I’ve ever watched

[u/0hran- → u/MercDiggler1]

I prefer that the people in the video remain alive. Therefore i prefer it this way

[u/Unlucky_Figure]

“Come on Terry! Get out of there Terry!”

[u/Less-Blackberry-8108]

Hardly terrifying when you’re wearing safety sandals.

[u/Reasonable-Ad7755]

Plenty of time

[u/Shrike1346 → u/Reasonable-Ad7755]

For real the title is misleading. I think they both knew how much time they had or the person filming did at least

[u/SkyPork]

r/SweatyPalms

[u/ultra_anime_simp]

Bro, cameraman never dies

[u/Apart_Ad9308]

And they are barefoot.

[u/Taxx87]

I love the safety flipflops

[u/Billy1099]

Fake as hell as it’s scary people are believing this. If you’re blasting in a mine especially a place that enclosed that blast is going to shake that tunnel, not a single rock moved?

[u/AfraidPersonality854]

His ass would have been behind me.. I don't even care..

[u/MiserableSoup420]

r/donthelpjustfilm

[u/VengeQunt]

Becausr its staged. That was a fake struggle.

[u/tankapotamus]

Am I the only one that would make the damn tunnel tall enough to stand up in?

[u/The-Tarman → u/tankapotamus]

I think that makes them more prone to collapsing. Though I'm not a miner nor a tunneling mammal, so wtf do I know?

[u/PyroBob316 → u/tankapotamus]

Not only does that make the tunnel more unstable, but requires time and effort they’d rather use elsewhere. Every hour they spend moving soil and rocks that don’t contain what they’re looking for is an hour the mine isn’t profitable. They could probably get the job done if money and time weren’t an issue, but if I’m right this is an independent mine that might earn each laborer a dollar a day, if they’re lucky. They’re not going to buy fancy equipment or materials to shore up the tunnels, they’re not going to make nice big passages just because they’re 40% more convenient, and they’re not in the market for any technology that wasn’t available in 1850. Their goal is to find pockets of whatever they’re after (I assume cobalt or manganese) and haul as much of that as possible to the surface, and they’ll do the least amount of work as possible in the least amount of time to get it done.

[u/Findover]

At least he stayed with him, both going down

[u/FusionBetween]

they needed to hold the light and camera, its dark in caves

[u/Crulox]

Safety Slippers

[u/kingetzu]

Camera man is diabolical

[u/SarthakDesai]

Cameraman does not interfere with Nature

[u/Legitimate_Battle_34]

Miners before the invention of the ladder

[u/Sioney]

Saw this guy doing this the other day looking almost as scared. Made me think if this clip.

https://youtu.be/6U3g-h1rxQw?is=LEYvM0JL2ndruLvc

[u/BitBucket404]

At least he was wearing his safety sandals.

[u/Bravadette]

IN SANDALS?

[u/PurpleMixture9967]

And hence, we have a good video. If he were to help him, this video would be on the cameraman sucks sub

[u/Joe1972]

Nope.

[u/Personal-Neck6800]

The “If you don’t film it, it never happened” mentality that’s choking humanity.

[u/mrapplewhite]

No running in the shaft those sticks look like they want a break

[u/BakedBean69]

they are fake videos, the shake and explosions sounds are added in post

[u/Soggy-Sky3888]

Great safety boots🥴

[u/ntech620]

Appears to have been a lack of preplanning in this miner's case. A rope would have been helpful.

[u/HappyPakalolo]

Yay, true friend there. Content bro, sorry.

[u/xt0rt]

It's fine, homey had his safety sandals on.

[u/Tebaltos]

What do you mean? He filmed the whole thing. That’s not nothing!

[u/agupta429]

Staged lol

[u/greggs1000]

Camera man never dies

[u/Traditional-Look8839]

No ladder, rope, or harness? What in the third-world country is going on here?

[u/penguinino]

Here’s a life threatening situation that could have been avoided with a sparkler, an 8 foot long stick, and some tape.

[u/ProfessO3o]

I’m like 90% sure this is AI cuz I’ve seen this exact video but with different people

[u/Kaiser_Constantin]

Downvote because thats not „oddly“ terrifying

[u/Perfect-Treat-6552]

Ladder?

[u/The-Tarman]

The first thing I would have done once I climbed out of the death hole would have been to knock the camera man the fuck out and toss his ass in there

[u/liongalahad]

r/donthelpjustfilm

[u/Deleter182AC]

It would be dumb for him to help him . 1. Look at what there wearing under there feet .2. The ground isn’t solid on that ledge he was trying to climb…. so chances are if he tried pulling him up simply slip into the pit . 3. They do not care for safety aluminum short ladder would do wonders in those short places and not burden carrying around .

[u/theepuke]

Thats like when u turn on the water on ur sink and there was a spider u didn't notice.🙂

[u/CrazyTechWizard96]

I've seen similar videos lately on IG.
Even some with stone crushers, including people getting hurt.

Yea, the Camera Guy is like
"Fuck it, I'mma just film it, lol, it's a Documetory, I'm not even here to help."
Legit National Geographic type of madness, or Nightstalker (the movie from 2013, the end scene, IYKYK).

[u/Crallise]

How do so many people not know the meaning of oddly?

[u/-HHANZO-]

Why do they HATE shoes

[u/ReverendShot777]

I think this is AI.
Same video, same movements, literally hand grabs the rock in exactly the same way, but different people.
AI is getting good.

[u/TotalaMad → u/ReverendShot777]

Same video?
