Science tells us that women live longer than men for a whole host of reasons, but the most important one is that women don't even do half of the ridiculously dumb things that men do. Seriously, what were you guys thinking?
It goes a lot deeper than forgetting to look both ways before crossing the street. Men's frontal lobes, the part of the brain that deals with decision making and risk assessment, develop slower than women's. In short, men are basically doomed by nature and testosterone to be walking accidents waiting to happen. Have fun with that!

Omg. The stupidity of the plan! The survival of the fittest and all that ... There won't be a next generation, thank God.
Man, you made me laugh so hard... I had to expain the reason to my boss
Load More Replies...How did he know he was from South Africa ... 😂our police ain't scared of anything 😂
There has been a skater that multiple times fell of heights with no helmet on, but had nothing to his head thanks to dreads. So dont underestimate dreads.
Well, the rope could be determinant for the fall, did he fell forward or backward? ^^
He's not cutting all of the way through. He's controlling the direction of the fall by cutting that notch first... then I assume he will cut on the other side
That tree has way to much lean in the opposite direction, for the notch to have many effect.
Load More Replies...Even if that is a rope securely tied to the tree top, when the cut is complete the bottom will swing out to the left and the whole tree will drop about 10 feet (despite the rope).
Oh so many things wrong on this that it could actually had worked out
Too often the architect just don't think about maintenance when designing these things. How else can you get to that lamp
How would a ladder even work? There are stairs below. Who came up with this s****y design?
it made me too, because i read your comment and thought about it. .
Load More Replies...First good wind gust he's history. Dude obviously doesn't know how windy it gets up there.
Why is there a window that openes anyway? And how hard is it to tie a f*****g rope around you when you do this s**t?
Ok so this guy has bloody hands. Clearly not sane and in desperate need of help. Not funny
I think none of these is a joke, for that matter. But I wonder whether that's blood or just paint. Note the red can kinda thing on the glass of the window. But then again, I see nothing's painted there, so... A very weird situation indeed.
Load More Replies...This upsets me, it is obvious there is something wrong with this man, they have even blurred his face. It shouldn't be used in a humorous article.
His hands look like a bloody mess; there must be more to this story.
It's gotta b! I thought he killed someone and was then watching a parade?!
Load More Replies...Are his hands bloody? Look like it. Wonder if this was a suicidal person
could be a depth perception thing, i don't actually think he's in danger of beheading. if he is, it's ok, not like he was using it for anything anyway.
Seems like they are taking care of it themselves
Load More Replies...What is one of them happens to sneeze really hard that makes them fall of their bike? ? And... the guy in the back is not even WEARING A HELMET!!
Cause a helmet would do much to save him from being decapitated
Load More Replies...He already cut all the power, so no electric there. You must never done any electric so you don't know any protocol when it come to it. now you come here and criticize the way people do.
Load More Replies...i hate to be that person, but he wouldn't be fiddling with that at all if the power was actually on. nothing stupid here.
He has rubber boots on, and assuming he's an electrician, the power is probably off.
This looks insane, but I honestly don't know that it's all that insecure. It's tied at the top, each ladder is attached to the next on multiple rungs... the biggest problem I see is the way the weight presses into the leaning ladder(s) at the bottom, which could push it away from the wall if the feet aren't solidly secured (the shot at the bottom is too s****y to see for sure what's going on there). This looks like a building that should've been designed better for maintenance... Otherwise, people who work on tall towers (radio, microwave, electrical, etc) have to deal with very long ladders too.
I'd love to see how he even got up there... and how he gets down
Living in Vietnam, I see similar and worse bike-shipping solutions every day😂
When you find an impassable deal, but you drove your mo-ped to the store....
This looks idiotic, but the rocking horse is less precarious than you'd think due to being set between the ladder rungs. It's still idiotic, IMO, but not as idiotic as it seems at first glance. Clearly the owner of this place needs to create something practical for this exact purpose...
Wh-why? Seriously? How dumb must you be to even consider using a rocking horse as a stepstool?
it won't move cause it's placed on 2 girders of that ladder. safe.
Load More Replies...Maybe his wife told him to get up off his a*s and change the lightbulb?!?
Load More Replies...and by helmet, we mean bucket, while placing the actual helmet on your handlebars. wouldn't want those to get a traumatic brain injury.
Too late for that... obviously the brain injury has already happened.
Load More Replies...No, the helmet will protect the family jewels as he is catapulted over the handle bars.....
No, it is to protect the family jewels as he is catapulted over the handle bars.....
Should also keep the blood off his face when he takes off his fingers.
and suffocate himself on the way when he panics
Load More Replies...But there is no easier way to laminate your face to keep it fresh for the coroner!
Load More Replies...I cannot believe some one actually thought this wasite a good idea.
Technically, from a failure basis... this is not dangerous, for the lever ratio of the weights is probably 15 to 20 to one. The problem would be if there would be some slippage of that stack of materials at the base of the support pipes.
The only real difference is one is mounted to a counterweight and this one isnt.
Load More Replies...I actually believe that this is safe way to do it. since the distance from wall to rope is so much bigger than the distance from wall to sand bags.
No, but obviously sweaters are quite a precious commodity.
Load More Replies...I wanna know the conversation that led to this, and why he didnt just quit
I thought ya had to be smart to get this job in the first place. They need harder interview questions
Good thing nobody has ever had their bike slip out from under them while cornering on loose gravel. Wait......
Okay, I can see they are skilled cyclists, but WHY ride there when there are so many beautiful places to ride that aren't life threatening? Oh, yeah...adrenalin junkies 'cause life just isn't satisfying enough when your not risking it. Really?

I see the caption of this reading "Hello? Yes, I'd like to increase my husband's life insurance policy."
Go, take that tree, and if the fall doesn't kill you the power lines will.
Looks like he might be wearing a safety harness so it could be worse.
Gayrimenkul... As a French speaking person I read: Gayri (deformed in "Garry") m'encule (f**ks me in the a*s)...
That means "real estate" in Turkish but close enough :)
Load More Replies...I say staircase, with a slight rebound onto the wall.
Load More Replies...Like Jeff said, it's a roof, not a wall. The angle makes this look worse. Also, the ridges keep the custom ladder from spinning. It's still possibly horribly dangerous, but not the way it appears in this photo.
Load More Replies...I can't even look at this one. It's definitely not going to end well.
it said on the machine to don't stick the hand in, nothing about the foot ;-)
handle of shovel or foot? gosh, I've had this shovel since winter 2015 so.....
Worrisome that he might have procreated already..
Load More Replies...That is Total Trust. Just wait until they find out he got a promotion, a raise and has been sleeping with both of their wives 😂🤣😂
Goodness, doesn't he know that you are not supposed to stand on the top platform of a stepladder?
The guy in the middle is closing his eyes, you know just in case something happens.
Because you don't want to be blinded when your head is blown off...
Load More Replies...Momma always told me, "if you close your eyes, nothing bad will ever happen."
It's better that no one is inside to accidentally bump anything. The Chain Is The only Hazard At that point
Load More Replies...This is what Elon Musk has been warning us about, trusting the machines!!!
risking the family jewels here........maybe best he doesn't procreate....
TFW you are so sick of the railing being broken that you fix it before putting on your pants.
Well at least the cops can't bust them for not using a turn signal, right?
Load More Replies...Apparently the driver doesn't care much about his car, his fridge...or his friend.
That is sign for the room behind that door. Which fully isolate and everything.
I would agree but that looks like a standard metal door. If a container broke in there gasses may leak out. That being said, I don't know if breathing that stuff in versus ingesting it is any better...

LOL to be fair his shirt says terminex, so the poison is probably sealed containers of pesticide. They would probably be hard pressed to find a place in that building that wasn't sort of close to a storage area lol :P
I fell only 8 feet from a ladder and tore every muscle in my arm and broke a piece off my elbow. This can be pretty dangerous
Load More Replies...Every good house paiter was able to do this back in the time. Nothing dangerous about that.
That's just smart..... besides I see women in higher heels every weekend
I agree this isn't dangerous but did you seriously have to end your comment with that?
Load More Replies...I think, every indoor painter know how to walk using ladder this way. It is part of their work.
Haha, pretty nifty, wish I could do that but I don't have the jeart or the discipline to practice doing this before I get the hang of it 😃 But I love walking on stilts and it is kinda the same thing so no big deal once you've mastered the technique.
- Hey, rookie, you are selected to participate in the competition - But I still have not learned anything! - No problem ! This is not necessary.
i'll do it... i'll do it... i'll do it... I did it!!!! i'll try again tomorrow
Saved the GIF, looked at every frame, at one point car was around 1 foot away from train.😑
Well, at least they've got the big guy anchoring it...so they gave it some thought.
The ladder wouldn't easily move even without the big guy on it... but those ladders break easily in the middle( at the joints). With a different ladder I would say this isn't so dangerous.
Just hope he didn't p**s off the guy in the red shirt recently.
Load More Replies...Yeah, this is silly but should work fine for the job. It's actually going to stop many projectiles, unlike the fool with the plastic bag on his head.
tbh these things aren't much stronger than a plastic bag.
Load More Replies...grinding sparks don't light stuff on fire people. You can let them go on your skin no big deal.
I did set myself on fire while grinding fyi
Load More Replies...Well, I guess it's an improvement over the guy above, who's just letting the sparks go in his face. If the plastic melts, tho...
Maybe the engine to power the wheel to large, or it consume too much power, that why manual is cheaper. ( different country, value of people different, at least he work to feed family)

Just kick it out from underneath the ladder I can picture it happening
Load More Replies...His wife told him to "get that damn light bulb changed!" And said she would wait for him upstairs.
Probably is a trick from the mirror and he's not hurting, yet, pretty stupid
jESUS That guy is most likely in a lot of pain. WHY IS HE CONTINUING
ingenuity, i am impressed. and in case of a fall there is a squishy couch to land upon.
"Oh, you know, it's a step up on the career ladder."
Load More Replies...I wish that could be me in the bucket, it looks fun. If one of my friends get in a career that has those in doing this!!!
His face will definitely be mighty thor when it hits him
Load More Replies...ok i know this is seriously dangerous, but i am just thinking how does that picture look so good. Like they literally had perfect timing.
If you're dumb enough to do this, you probably can't remember if it's loaded either....
You just know he is going to show this to his girlfriend as proof he got mugged and that is why he is 6 hours late.
i don't get the whycome he's in front of a mirror, like that's the biggest problem with this one.
I don't see the problem, I always stand on my wine to get to my other wine
And if he falls and cracks his skull open on that floor, he's still gonna have to pay for the wine.
And good thing is you wont have to burry him again
Load More Replies...He's pouring more dirt in so he can climb out cause he totally just fell in there and that's that. Hahaha
Deeper than a 4 foot trench with no engineered supports, so it's already a graveyard.
from the scrape on the guy on the ground's knee I'd guess this is their second attempt
LOL safely harnessed. To the damn ladder😂😂😂 I guess a false sense of security counts as confidence.
Dear God make me a bird so I can fly far, far far away....
Looks like his safety belt is around the ladder and the cable so he's probably okay, but the ladder angle is still disturbing.
Supporting a different type of bosons chair for washing the building.
I love how completely disinterested holding guy is. He's just completely 'meh' about the whole thing. Awesome.
What you don't see is in the next frame she is lifting up the board.
Hope that guy doesn't have life insurance; otherwise it will be very tempting for the wife......ehem...just saying..
Did this for years almost every day.never had a problem. How did you think it was done?
What's wrong here? This is how work gets done. Scaffolding and stilts. So long as the guy knows how to use the stilts and so long as the scaffolding is assembled correctly, he should be fine. The one he's standing on doesn't look like it's going to slide anywhere because it's attached to the rails on the frame at the right.
Just a normal day on the job for a drywaller. Did it for years as did every finisher I knew. This is not dangerous.
Hey Pappaw wudja bring yer tractor down tha road to help me n' Cletus out real quick?
I think he'd be better off with the four buckets on the bottom like the guy checking his smoke detector.
This is some of the dumb s**t I was made to do in my old job as a painter/Decorator. I ended up quitting. No job is worth risking injury or death.

Load More Replies...And they expect the customer to reach this just hate that they put things in the attic.
No, they don't expect the customer to reach the stock in the back of the top shelf. They expect the customer to reach things at the front of the top shelf, or to ask for help. Pretty simple.

Nah, we don't do stupid things like that, we find a man to do it for us. Lol!
Load More Replies...Surprisingly, many of those might have ended without a harm. I've seen many people improvising like that and they were all just fine. My ex boss used to make a "ladder" from chairs/tables/stuff he found to change a lightbulb (it was really high) and he had really just 2-3 centimetres for his feet on the edge of a chair or something, he looked like a acrobat (he was in his late 60.!) and I almost had a heart attack when I saw him but in the end he always managed to do everything he needed and come back. My boyfriend sometimes does "improvise" like this as well... And this is far away from my comfort zone but they don't (over)thinking this like I do, I guess?
Load More Replies...As a woman I must admit to having done some pretty dodgy things along these lines too.
Gah, I can't even finish the list! My anxiety is through the roof with some of those, lol!
Scary thing is that for each of these that [for some strange reason] worked out, there are probably 3 that didn't.
The dangers are equally shared by both genders, wanna look up the stats?
