Women tend to live longer than men across the world.

According to the UN, in 2023, women’s global life expectancy was 75.9 years, compared to just 70.5 for men. That’s quite a gap, and if you’re wondering what might be behind it, we’ve found a pretty entertaining clue.

The aptly named subreddit Why Women Live Longer has all the proof you need—photo after photo of men doing things so jaw-droppingly reckless, you’ll question how they’ve made it this far.

Scroll down to see the chaos for yourself, and please, whatever you do, don’t try this at home. Or anywhere.

    They're wearing harnesses, can't tell if those are attached to lanyards, but typically you wouldn't bother with a harness otherwise. Regardless, professional iron workers who work at those heights aren't dumb or reckless. They have to prove themselves before they're allowed up that high on the iron. They know exactly what they're doing. (Am married to a former iron worker)

    The only reason that 'Florida man' is a thing is because of laws in Florida that allow mugshots and crime details to be published. Most places have protections in place so that people who have been incorrectly charged aren't publicly shamed. Other states have just as many dumb crimes going on.

    Fascinatingly, women outlive men regardless of where they live, how much they earn, or a variety of other factors. And it’s not strictly a human phenomenon either; most other mammals follow the same pattern.

    “It’s a very robust phenomenon all over the world, totally conserved in sickness, during famines, during epidemics, even during times of starvation,” Dr. Dena Dubal, a professor of neurology at the University of California, San Francisco, told The New York Times.

    the railing is the actual weak point of the system, but it may come as a surprise that THIS IS A RELATIVELY SAFE SETUP!... Ratchet straps can easily hold over a ton, and the aluminum stair may be able to hold just as much, but this setup is exerting lot of force on the railing. Assuming a 90 kg guy, 7 meters in on a 8 meters long stair, with connections at 4 and 8 meters, the top straps are exerting at most a total of about 455N on the railing. By Residential Building Code must be able to bear 200 pounds (890N) at any point, so the guy is working with a safety factor of at least 2. Good enough.

    I got caught In the middle of a brick fight when I around 10. I Was walking to my aunts house just around the corner from ours and as I turned on to her road a brick come flying through the air and hit me on the side of the head. Literally knocked me to the floor. I obviously started crying and when I saw blood was screaming for my aunt ( I was 30 seconds from her house). A&E trip and 16 stitches later I missed the event I was going to my aunts for in the first place.

    Still, while we know women live longer than men (as these chaotic photos may strongly imply), the exact reasons behind the gap are not fully understood.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    And to be clear, living longer doesn’t necessarily mean living better.

    According to Bérénice Benayoun, an associate professor at the U.S.C. Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, women tend to have shorter health spans (the number of years they live in good health) compared to men.

    They’re also more physically frail in old age, and after menopause, they become more vulnerable to certain conditions like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s. That’s partly because age itself is a risk factor, as Dr. Benayoun pointed out.

    Once again I must reply that this is not as dangerous as everyone makes it out to be. The worst thing he is doing here is not wearing glasses. As a former certified welder I can tell those sparks are nothing compared to what welding does. Unless there is a leak in one of those tanks nothing is going to happen and even if there where a leak they are not going to explode like you see in the movies. They gas will simply burn. All of the posters thinking that they will explode are the same kind of people that think gasoline tanks explode when shot like in the movies. It does not happen.

    So, what do we know about the longevity gap between the sexes?

    One major factor is genetics.

    A growing body of research suggests that the female XX set of chromosomes might have something to do with lifespan, though how exactly remains a bit of a mystery.

    In 2018, Dr. Dubal’s lab conducted a study on genetically engineered mice with various combinations of s*x chromosomes and reproductive organs. The mice with two X chromosomes and ovaries lived the longest, followed by those with two Xs and testes. Those with XY chromosomes had the shortest lifespans.

    Now, while that study hasn’t been replicated in humans yet, the parallels in hormones, chromosomes, and reproductive systems suggest we might see similar outcomes in people.

    These are the guys -a specialized ironworker crew- that installed the antenna. The antenna is hollow and there is a ladder inside. They all have harnesses connected to the lifeline at the inner top of the antenna. https://edition.cnn.com/2016/09/09/us/construction-workers-spire-photo-irpt/index.html

    True, but I have to wonder if the lines and the tie ones are rated for the weight of six bodies at once. it looks like one of those pics you see in a documentary just before cuts to the inspector shaking his head and sighing.

    A South Carolina man, 41-year-old Allen Ray McGrew, died on July 4th after placing a lit firework on his head during a neighborhood block party, according to police and local news reports. The Dorchester County Sheriff's Office said McGrew ignited a "large firework device" and placed it on his head, according to police and local news. Witnesses reported that he may have been trying to "show off" and family members tried to stop him. McGrew was pronounced dead at the scene.

    Hormones are also part of the puzzle, though they make things trickier.

    Some studies show that the female immune system is more robust when it comes to fighting infections, and women are less likely to die from sepsis.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    But that advantage fades with menopause, when estrogen levels drop and the immune system weakens. Eventually, women begin to catch up, or even surpass men, in developing certain age-related diseases.

    I see a lot of underpaid workers doing this. Usually they are immigrants and are often exploited so no real concern about their safety. Cutting concrete and such without dust masks can really do a number on your lungs and overall health. And they usually smoke too. I feel really bad for them when I see this.

    That depends on where you start hacking - now if you start at the neck ... Actually binding the limb to slow blood flow is better. Apart from which getting bitten, then hacking off an appendage with a, presumably, grubby knife or axe may well lead to death by tetanus.

    I was in southern Florida during the entire hurricane season the year Ian hit! It was pretty intense! Me and a few buddies went to Ft Myers(I was living in Port St Lucie at the time...we were hit direct on by one that year as well but not NEAR as intense as Ian!) And helped with clean up! It was literally like a bomb went off all over the city! So all I can say is this man is a moron! 🤣🤣

    So, while there’s no single explanation for why women live longer, it’s likely a combination of biology, hormones, lifestyle choices, and, let’s be honest, some questionable risk-taking.

    Whatever the dominant factor is, one thing’s clear: if you consistently put yourself in dangerous situations, you’re not doing your lifespan any favors.

    So maybe skip the homemade rooftop zipline and the flaming hoverboard tricks. Just a thought.

    Disagree. My dog is deaf, and she cannot hear cars or commands. The shock-collar, if used on low settings, doesn't hurt. How do I know, because I did exactly what this guy did, and put it around my neck, and shocked myself on each of the settings, taking note of how it feels. I then hired a professional trainer to help me work with my dog to use the collar to just get her attention so I can give her visual commands (sign-language for dogs). I can also use the collar to get her to just stop in her tracks (ie: keep her out of the road). At the settings that I use it feels like anything from as low as a tingle, to as high as a quick pinch of the skin. It cannot be used to electrocute her or give her a prolonged experience of pain like a tazer.

    My friend's family installed invisible fencing for their dog. As part of the training, the tech (or whoever) made them take turns wearing the collar and walking across the line. The reasoning? If you're going to zap your puppy you should know how it feels.

    Okay, this may be an unpopular idea, but hear me out... We ban the shock collars for dogs, but require that all politicians have to wear them when participating in election debates. And, if elected to office, whenever giving a news conference or interview, or holding a hearing or giving testimony before a government committee, only then the collars have to be wired to a lie detector. Who's with me?

    6 months ago (edited) Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    I knew someone who rescued a dog that had come from a bad situation. The dog was trained with a shock collar. They are set at an extremely low level shock, as to be just enough to distract the dog to bring its attention back to owner. The humans try it on first to see how it feels. There is the option of turning it up enough to end the dog in case someone is attacked. But reputable trainers and owners know the proper usage of the shock collar. In the wrong hands, though, they can really be harmful to the dog. Often my friend ŵould be at home with the collar not on the dog, she would just lift up the handpiece and show it to the dog and it would calm the dog down.

    Unfortunately they are often used by untrained people and they use them as punishment, which is not the right way to use one. It can actually save a dog's life by keeping it from running in to traffic or chasing a coyote. As you say, it is intended to simply get the dog's attention, sort of like a tap on the shoulder when a dog is hyper focused. It is a very mild shock, less than what we would do with 9v batteries on our tongues as kids. They also have a buzz and a sound option which almost always accomplish the same thing is the stim.

    Hippos aren't vegetarians. The term only applies to humans. Hippos being non-humans animals, you could say they're herbivores - but even that is wrong. They don't properly hunt, but they do enjoy eating the fellow hippo that lost the dominance fight, the lion that tried to attack one of the calves, or the human that got a little too annoying.

    Yeah. I did something like that once, a very long time ago. Just once... Making mistakes like that is an important part of growing up: it teaches you that sometimes, a stupid mistake is *really* stupid, and hopefully you'll avoid the "likely to be actually fatal" stupid mistakes later on. I have also accidentally set fire to my hair. 😁

It’s tragic but tldr he got is pregnant girlfriend to shoot him through a book believing it would stop the bullet (it had when he tested it previously) but it seems that due to him compressing the book by holding it the book was insufficient to stop the bullet and she killed him. She was convicted for killing her childs father at his request, all for a YouTube video! Basic info here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-40438207

    Texas A&M (USA) had a longstanding tradition of building a log bonfire on campus to be burned before the annual football game against The University of Texas at Austin. It was a symbol of school spirit and Aggie pride, attracting large crowds each year. That tradition ended on November 18, 1999, when the stack collapsed during construction, resulting in 12 deaths and 27 injuries.

    This one isn't too bad. I mean he should have someone hold2the ladder, and the legs of the ladder should probably adhered in some form to the wood spacer/buckets. But otherwise everything is strong enough to support the weight, and the ground is level. Plus realistically, if he fell, he'd most likely be relatively fine (as long as he doesn't land on his head and snap his neck).

    Ethanol is just drinking alcohol. You're thinking of ethylene glycol, which is a type of alcohol. Ironically, drinking ethanol interferes with your liver breaking the ethylene glycol down into the stuff that actually kills you. It's even a legit medical treatment for antifreeze poisonings.

    I guess it means illegally soak in hot springs, namely those too dangerous for a dip. Though I'd recommend trying a different kind of hot pot which is also hot as it's name suggest, but easier to digest, literally.

    The frustrating thing is the absolute arrogance. The walkways in the geothermal areas are *well* marked, the warning signs are everywhere. The guy and his sister chose one randomly, without any way to gauge the heat of the water, then used his bare hand to try to check the temp. Articles say he slipped and fell in, but I think the shock of the extreme high temp made him jerk back and then he fell in, fully immersed. The one they chose was extremely acidic as well. I feel so badly for the rescue team, having to deal with that.

    Sad part is, it looks like he had the resources to build much sturdier staging. The real way to do this is by using ladders, and special brackets that clip onto the ladders so you can lay boards across and create staging. They aren't super expensive, and if you know a roofer they should have tons of them you can borrow.

    It looks that way. But maybe, just maybe, it's securely tied down, and the mate is just providing additional bracing. But considering this looks like India, I imagine it's not properly tied off.
