If I didn’t laugh every day I’d already be dead. Also, Morons make me feel good about myself, as in; “I may be a dumbfuk but I’m not THAT fucken stoopid!!”. Enjoy.

Seen a lot of stupid shyte like this in my years too. Some of it was pranks gone a bit to far but the equipment and tree falling ones are just stupid people thinking its easy, what could go wrong.
Seen a lot of stupid stuff like this as well. Been the cause of my fair share too! The best is that moment of silence afterwards everyone is just staring at each other, waiting for someone to start screaming in agony or erupt in jubilation.
yup… as have we all. Today, I do it still and for no pay. Not that I was getting paid much when I was doing it professionally.
We are the results of 50’s – 70’s training.
Still kick’n it, but not with the same intensity.
As they say here in my neck of the woods – We’re still kicking, just not raising any dust.”
In virtually every single one of those clips there was a complete lack of situational awareness- clearance, tolerance, physics.
Having done plenty of foolish things throughout my life in a variety of fields, very few of them were true accidents or freak occurnces, but almost always user errors. If you live long enough and cause enough injury and damage along the way you learn to give as much time and consideration to the preparation and location as you do to the actual task at hand.
That said there is nothing more amusing than watching someone else doing something as stupid as dropping a tree on a house. I mean really, did you not think about that at all?
You are making tree comments,really?!
Is there a story to be told??? Should we gather round to hear a tale?
Says the guy who laid himself up in bed for months trimming tree limbs. 🙂 🙂
On the upside,I asked the ? back then we were all thinking,how is the chainsaw and the answer was chain saw is fine!As they say with covid deaths,it could have been a lot worse!
Plank meet HSF eye.
I learned several wrong ways to make a tree fall where you want this year. If I find another leaner, I know what kind of rope not to use now.
I only had 2 ER visits in 2022. I am going to try hard to make it zero this year. I think that’s the only thing I need a resolution for.
That was freakin’ hillarious ! “It was at this moment he KNEW he f@#ked up”. HaHaHa.
Isn’t a moron a subatomic particle?
My life is a on going series of OSHA violations paired with “Hold my beer” moments!
Three weeks ago on a job a laborer was drilling holes in an exterior concrete slab with one of those big ass drills, he was having a hard time and instead of reevaluating the issue he used his thighs to hold the drill.
Seconds later he was on the ground screaming and holding his crotch, his pants were shredded, paramedics arrived and super glued his dick back together, he almost tore his dick off. It was horrifying.
That one with the bear suit was hilarious!
I was helping do a floor with some guys at church when one of them told the story of his son getting his nutsack caught in a belt sander (it ran up his pant leg). Apparently without permanent damage, but it was very close. Not as horrific as your story, but watch them power tools around your jewels, boys.
Know a farmer who’s daughter got her hair caught in a drive shaft behind a tractor pto tore her scalp clean off , they reattached but I can’t believe it was quite the same.
Morons? While quite funny, comparatively speaking? NOT.
THIS is what MORONS really look like.
Those videos hit my Y.T. feed too, Stuck, and the tragicomedy is fun and interesting to watch.
Y.T. is a guilty pleasure in my down time or while waiting somewhere and my algorithm has been trained to show what I like:

Everybody Wing Chun tonight.
Years ago we painted an upper mechanical room and my guy got overspray on the floor, (because we were told the floor got tile) anyway, he used lacquer thinner to remove the paint, he checked the hot water heater in the room and it didn’t have a pilot light lit.
It was automatic, someone downstairs turned on the hot water, click, click, click…..BOOM, the room lit up. He threw his bucket and mop of flaming lacquer down the stairs and he tumbled after it.
The hot water heater exploded and took out a large section of ceiling below, which took out their phones and internet. $50,000.00 in smoke damage and repairs.
By far the worst accident, I was an apprentice painter, so late 1970’s, two flooring contractors were using lacquer thinner to remove old tile adhesive in a basement office, one of them turned on an electric grinder, the grinder ignited the fumes, not only in the air, but in the lungs of the two men.
Nobody on the job could figure out why these two men were writhing on the floor gasping for air.
Thankfully I was not on this job.
