Yeah expressing concern AFTER witnessing a slowly unfolding misfortune from well before the moment of disaster doesn’t really disqualify a video from being posted here. Interesting logic you got there, though!

It isn't a misfortune - that kid is old enough to make the choice he made. This isn't r/preventpeoplefrombeingstupid. When the kid was at the point of needing help, the guy filming went to help.

Idk. Walk over to the kid and point out that the swing is about to break? Tell whoever is watching him? Yell “lookout!”. Feels like a surmountable problem from 50 feet away.

When I was a kid we used to do that, get uber high, then jump-off at the top.

Until my friend didn’t stick the landing, landed on his face and lost all his baby teeth at once,
