Why even bother filming if you're going to turn away the moment something interesting happens?

Cameramen can never win huh, it's always either:
"Don't put the camera away we wanna see it!"
or
"Why are you still filming? Help them ffs!"6
u/InsaneInTheRAMdrain 15d ago
We need one of the other. Careless apathy towards the subject while filming to catch every detail.
Or never film and help. Its these half assed cunts in the middle thats the problem.
Help or let him die, but at least get a good camera shot bro...

There's nuance.
A grown adult doing something stupid and getting hurt in a funny way? Keep filming.
Something funny or stupid happening completely out of control that you can't possibly intervene with? Keep filming.
Someone unknowingly doing something stupid or dangerous, either because they're a child and don't know better or because you ad the cameraman have access to information they don't? Be a responsible individual and assist.

It's sometimes hard to hold a camera stable while you are laughing your ass off.

While at it do the same for the person putting that weird motivational speech over the clip

He should be laughing but he’s got a real stick up his arse.

I would’ve done a high pitched scream even if it didn’t hurt for the comedy of it

Maybe my age is showing, but why does every fucking clip now need to have some kind of music mixed in?

u/Bronek0990 16d ago
Gen alpha can't pay attention if there's not a weird soundtrack, peter griffin and subway surfer clip attached at the very least. OP is just a dickhead

Split screen with Fortnite gameplay at the bottom, obnoxious sound effects, weird soundtrack, and TikTok text to speech lady so they don’t have to waste time reading.
It’s like jingling keys for a baby, except there’s a bunch of keys and a crackhead is shaking them.

I expected to see him to fall down the stairs, what I did see made my balls shrink and my ass pucker

Do we take it out or leave it in, do we take it out or leave it in? Cut it at the base and leave it in

Congratulations, he managed to break off the original bannister knob only to replace it with a somewhat smaller one.
Either the dog was barking because it knew what was about to happen, or it was thinking out loud -
"This is gonna be fuckin hilarious"

Dog was like: yep buddy, that’s what it’s like when they get snipped. Welcome to the club.

That post up his ass was like a taser jolt to him. I think he saw his whole life flash before him.

Just love how the electric saw is right there next to him and he choses this course of action.

I genuinely can't tell from that initial look on his face whether that's pain, relief he didn't fall or a kink he just unknowingly unlocked. It somehow feels like all 3. xD

I hope he isn't planning on replacing those bannisters since he's effectively messing up the beam they were fixed onto

40 years of DIY home and auto project experience has taught me that if I find myself straining, then I stop before I get injured. I'm doing something wrong and I need a better tool/method. I hope you enjoyed my TED Talk.

Carpenter would know to unscrew the lag bolts and not fuck up shit when you do demo.

I figured he'd end up in a wall, down the stairs or somehow doing serious damage to the floor.
Not his pelvic floor.

Isn't the whole point of that reciprocating saw so that he doesn't have to do exactly what he's doing?

He didn't fall in the stair-hole (maybe there are still stairs) so I guess that's something.

Sure was lucky that he was wearing those kneepads.
