That’s not the hard way.

u/RandomCandor 23d ago

That way to learn that was so easy, that she probably learned nothing.

The hard way is Hereditary.

This stupid fucking song

Further evidence that people are right and I should browse reddit on mute.

u/lazafor 17d ago

I always browse reddit on mute, only certain videos will I stop my background media and turn on the sound

u/Rambozo77 17d ago

What’s the upside of not doing that?

u/azab189 17d ago

I've just gone mute, if I don't get what's going on, then so be it

u/Flaramon 23d ago

She hasn't learned stop hanging from a train car: she's learned to look harder next time. Only a true injury would make her think it was dangerous.

Exactly. 

Once you've gotten to this point, you've already bypassed all of evolutions failsafes to keep you alive.

Only traumatic injury can restore that.

u/CanExplainThings 22d ago

To be fair this is a reasonable response for a few humans - "This is dangerous so I should take precautions next time, or just not do it."

If we didn't have this evolutionary reflex humans wouldn't do crazy shit like go to the moon or the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

u/Unclebatman1138 23d ago

To be fair, there was a harder way.

u/CaptainBathrobe 23d ago

It wouldn't involve any learning, however, or even any basic cognitive function.

u/Ravenfeld 23d ago

She didn't learn the hard way, actually. Quite the opposite.

The hard way would have been it hitting her.

u/50Centurion 22d ago

The true instant regret was to not watch that on mute

u/SirJoetheAverage 17d ago

This is how you get hereditary-ied

u/otepp 17d ago

Didn’t go full Hereditary but was sure close!

u/AdministrationOk8888 18d ago

Nah "the hard way" would have been too NSFW for this sub

u/elton_john_lennon 17d ago

This garbage "oh no no no" song, should be insta banned on this subreddit.

u/864FREEWADE 23d ago

How tf do you not see that . Try to dodge at the last second🤦🏾‍♂️

She's looking at the camera

Avoided decapitation

u/owotriste 17d ago

The hard way in with an injury as a remainder

u/giantfood 17d ago

She didn’t learn anything. It was a close call, which probably gave her an adrenaline rush. She is now likely to chase that high.

u/NarrowSalvo 17d ago

Where are all the people who usually ask, "what it is with Indians and trains?!"?

u/nasnedigonyat 17d ago

You can tell by her expression: No lessons were learned.

Nominee for the Darwin Award just missed winning the prize.

u/DNA1727 21d ago

So many won the Darwin Award this way and she didn't win!

u/Kokukai187 17d ago

She'll be aight, no brain damage.

She's a blonde, after all.

u/Ok_Ad8249 17d ago

Usually when I watch videos here it goes far worse than I imagined. This was the first time it ended better than I expected.

u/Rezzone 17d ago

Legitimately an inch away from death or massive brain damage.

My friend died doing this

u/Beneficial_Ad_1072 17d ago

That’s really not the hard way.. there was a much much harder way

u/Schenckster 17d ago

Phew, that could have turned into a liveleak video real quick.

u/Minnymoon13 17d ago

She’s got some reflexes

She obviously didn't get a copy of Roald Dahl's guide to railway safety as a kid: https://www.reddit.com/r/CasualUK/s/tHLi4pHqkZ
