These 2 Boys Hitting Each Other With A Trash Can Lid Is Living Proof Why Women Live Longer Than Men

ADVERTISEMENT

The internet these days is dominated by visual content. From funny images to entertaining videos, this type of media is easy to consume, doesn’t take much effort, and one can sift through hours and hours of unending content. So it’s no wonder that videos are often the type of file that goes viral.

Just a couple of days ago, it was a papa lion crouching down to meet his baby cub for the first time. Today, it’s two little kids playfully hitting each other in the face with a trash can lid. The internet is quite wonderful, isn’t it?

The latest viral hit features 2 boys playfully hitting each other with a trash can lid

The current reigning viral video shows two boys in orange and green shirts taking turns around a trash can and playfully whopping one another on the face with the lid multiple times. Although the footage might seem violent from the first glance, every time one of the boys takes a hit to the face, both of them have a giggle. They even have a mini fight over who’s gonna be in charge of pushing the pedal to initiate the blow.

People have shared this video all over the internet, but it was best received on Twitter where users decided to “meme-fy” the boys’ actions. One of the captions read “this is why women live longer than men” together with a laughing emoji. Well, they have a point, don’t they?

You can watch the action in the video below

Here’s how people on Twitter reacted to the video

I hate to admit this, I would have done this as a kid. I'm female. Used to climb a tree jump from a nice high branch to garage roof, then back again. So dad cuts branch off, challenge accepted. Further distance to jump but success.

Same, I don't get these kind of stereotypes. As a kid, I spun myself around in circles so much I hit the wall, many times. Climbed up on the balcony like my cat did. Grabbed every lil buggo I could find. Female too!

This is absolutely adorable! These guys will be best buds for a long long time. Had me thinking of my youth, jumping outta trees, rolling down hills and swimming in creeks. Good times...good times...

Actually men die sooner so they don't have to listen to women anymore

This is just plain adorable. Although I'm quite certain a few adults have done this too!

Reminds me of when one of my nephews (then about 2, now about 30) was tilting a dining room chair and banging on the edge of the table. He'd cry when it tilted back and hit him in the head, but he kept doing it.....

Looka funny. Won't do much as long as they are laughing, but maybe should not be done for hours. Not because of the impactery, because it would stop provocing thinkery.

When we did this kinda stuff as kids there was one rule. First one that bleeds loses. That's usually when some adult would make you stop having fun.

It's also proof that men have a better sense of humour and why most female comedians suck.

I hope someone asked them their preferred pronouns before they were gender assigned as “boys”

That's what we do. There's no way to solve it. In fact I bet some of the males in BP would do that with me. Seems like fun!

That's one way to prevent getting stuck with student loans later in life.

Social class is a much better determinant of age than gender (e.g. a rich man will on average live longer than a poor woman).

Rich people (men and women) live longer than poor people. It's not surprising: rich people can afford medicines, good doctors, dental care, healthy food...

Boys being generally more likely than girls to engage in rough play?! This being related to men being generally more likely than women to engage in risk seeking behavior?! Those are gender differences! Gender differences can't exist! Don't exist! The only reason boys would do this sort of thing more than girls is b/c our society encourages them to! Our society encourages boys to hit each other with trash can lids and discourages girls from doing the same! Fingers in my ears right now! Gender's just a construct! Gender's just a construct! Gender's just a construct! - Also: gender is the most important marker of identity ever, and everyone should be forced to take gender studies classes!
