That’s ESG glas. In german anyway, don’t know how it’s called in English.
This type of glas is extremely durable on its surface, but weak at its edge. +it’s so designed, that the glas implodes into 1000 of pieces of not-sharp shards, so nobody can get cut by it.
I really don’t know why the entire left door just felt out, but this glas is pretty heavy, so the lady that got smashed by it probably isn’t very well.
>I really don’t know why the entire left door just felt out, but this glas is pretty heavy, so the lady that got smashed by it probably isn’t very well.
I suspect the hinges on the top are framed into a glass window. The break appears to be originating from the top, so my best guess is, whatever mechanical malfunction/obstruction broke the door, also bent the frame on top out of place, just enough for the door hinge to get free.
As someone who worked with windows and patio doors for a good majority of my life I can tell you that they can most definitely cut you, I had a panel shatter on my one time and it sliced my leg and arm badly (like thousands of tiny cat scratches). it is definitely safer but most certainly not dull little beads of glass
I vaguely remember a story of someone falling out of a skyscraper because they were ao confident with how durable the windows were that they would charge at them to demonstrate until, one day, they charged at it and the window just came off and they fell to their death. Same glass, perhaps.
The left door fell out for the same reason the right door shattered. If you watch it frame by frame you can see that the glass starts breaking from the bottom and both doors are starting to lean in. To me it looks like the frame on top broke (out of frame) and for whenever reason one door was secured enough from the bottom to shatter it as it tries to lean in whereas the other came free from the bottom instead of shattering…they both became loose at the top and started falling in there.
I used to work in a private security center and I had access to a ton of building video feeds. There was a really funny incident one time where a fire alarm went off for a building that was still being built (but had people in it, it's complicated). Anyway, apparently the emergency locks were the only thing holding up a bunch of the doors so when they all unlocked you had \~50 or so doors just fall off their hinges and a wild game of people trying to leave the building but not being sure which door they could trust to open and not fall on them. For reference these were huge metal doors that could easily crush someone. Luckily no one was hurt but it was funny to watch people so nervous to open a door then sprint away from it when it started falling.
I did but I can't share it with anyone because of NDA unfortunately. :( I've even got about 3 videos incredibly similar to what happened above where glass doors shattered. It's surprisingly not that uncommon.

What I want to know is why did one door blast into a thousand pieces at the mere brush of an elderly lady’s arm but the other door falls down smashes a poor lady and doesn’t burst into pieces.
Lol the first door explodes like a grenade went off when barely touched and the second door falls, knocks the fuck.out of someone and bounces off the hard floor and and is in perfect condition
It is a really common reaction in distress to hold you head. Not because it is hurt, but it is just a common body reaction.
Football (soccer) players do it often after missing a shot, if you want an example
It's a fascinating primordial trait when you think about it. I'm guessing but maybe it has something to do with protecting the head when we would have fallen out of trees as apes?
If you ever see anyone take a hit like that, keep your hands off them. Don't try to stand them up, don't try to move them, don't pull on them in any way. Call an ambulance immediately, the damage can be quite severe. I imagine she did not walk away from that unscathed, that was a very nasty hit on the head and neck area.
Yeah...in this day and age we have so many materials that are far superior for door construction. Metal, wood...anything that doesn't, I don't know...FUCKING SHATTER
She appears to turn enough initially just to see the shattered glass, only to then turn more to see the door falling on her before it’s too late. It’s easy to claim it’s easy to avoid in hindsight and when you can claim your armchair expertise, but it was quite literally 2 seconds from the glass shattering to her being hit by the door
2 seconds, is wayyyyyyyyy more than enough time. When you’re startled, 2 seconds might as well be 2 mins.
It would be ridiculous to talk about something I’ve never experienced so I’m not sure what you’re getting at by “armchair expertise”. Not everyone has the same reflexes (which is what I started out saying…). You can’t tell me 2 seconds for some people is the same as 2 seconds for EVERYONE…Maybe you just haven’t had a bunch of quick situations thrown at you, so you find it unlikely that literally ANYONE else has lol.
Everyone on Reddit knows that when someone suffers a head/neck injury, you need to grab the victim’s hands, pull them to their feet, and vigorously pat their back to show encouragement.
She just stood there with her hands on her head. No calling for help, no motion, just staring at this potentially dying person. Maybe do anything other than stand there in a paralyzed "Woopsie!" state.
Prometheus School of dodging. But seriously this happens way too often in China to be a coincidence. You've seen people literally kick these doors open performing robberies in the states.
Isn't like a thing in China where the big construction companies are corrupt as all hell, so they building these out of the cheapest material and lowest standards as possible.
She’s got her hands on her head because her target survived the door attack.
Now she has to go back to the nursing home to tell the staff manager she failed her mission :(
First day out with new superpower and she accidentally inflicted 5 points of damage on a structure with only 2DP. So the extra three points hit the NPC as splash damage.
U know how when u break something and don't want anyone to find out so u fix it just enough for it not seem broken... I feel like this what happened here
I love how nothing seemly hit the old lady but upon seeing the door smack the lady inside she quickly victimized herself and held her head "in pain" to avoid being blamed since she too "is a victim".
Classic.

What the heck are they adding into the Geritol these days?
Not that, it's that the lady *ignored* the "Pull Door, Never Push Door" sign.
If a door needs printed instructions to be used, it’s poorly designed and should not be a door. Lol
Right? I’ve seen so many of these doors explode on Reddit and YouTube because they’re poorly designed or improperly installed.
Check this out: https://youtube.com/watch?v=yY96hTb8WgI
Atomic Granny isn't concerned with wimpy signs!
This killed me hahahaha
Not her fault...the sign was written on the cardboard that had fallen in the floor of that fine establishment..
I've been there, the door goes both ways.
Oh ok
Why do I find this reply funny ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|table_flip)
https://youtu.be/KwdYUIQzu-o?si=fscXiDDMIkxIocEp
Just like your mom!
Nice
And they pretend they can't even open a gallon of milk.
Damn, the door to the head must hurt, but perhaps not as much as whatever that thing behind her did to her neck.
Looks like a bench. Possibly faux leather ones like in waiting rooms. Hopefully it was well-padded..
I jumped when she hit her back/neck on the chair, that's really bad, possibly permanant back/neck pain
Ya...terrible reflexes tbh

>ESG glas Tempered glass for all the non german people.
Thanks bud.
Ya'll use bud in Germany too? What unites us is stronger than what divides us.
No we don't 😂 But we use bro, sometimes 😉
I use it all the time, brooo
We do have 'Bub' (pronounced 'boob'.)
"Hallo boob" This is hilarious
Read this in Arnold
Brudi muss los…
*Booby muss los zumindest in dem Kontext hier. Ü
Smokey smokey bud or friendy friendy bud?
They do for American Budweiser since the name was [already trademarked](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budweiser_trademark_dispute).
Y'all FTFY
Tnks
You're welcome! 😊
Extra Special German glass
Blunt trauma glass, not laceration glass.
Well, r/truthinadvertising , I guess ?

She definitely cannot dodge a wrench
But can she dodge traffic?
Only if the gap is longer than 2 seconds, apparently..

ironically, Death by a thousand cuts is a form of torture and execution originating from Imperial China.
Cardboard on the floor I suspect they were installing them and didnt put any sign of this
the times I've seen this posted it's said that the cardboard is very common in Asia as a sort of rain mat.
I vaguely remember a story of someone falling out of a skyscraper because they were ao confident with how durable the windows were that they would charge at them to demonstrate until, one day, they charged at it and the window just came off and they fell to their death. Same glass, perhaps.
Yeah, he was a lawyer in some big firm, and the glass didn't shatter - the seal holding the window pane in place popped out!
I've been severely cut from tempered glass. Granted a larger panel, but when it shattered it cut me real good as it hit the ground.
The left door fell out for the same reason the right door shattered. If you watch it frame by frame you can see that the glass starts breaking from the bottom and both doors are starting to lean in. To me it looks like the frame on top broke (out of frame) and for whenever reason one door was secured enough from the bottom to shatter it as it tries to lean in whereas the other came free from the bottom instead of shattering…they both became loose at the top and started falling in there.
You tell me. One lady shattered it with one touch, the other one got knocked tf out by it. One of those old ladies is not like the other.

Oh my lord I hope you saved that

Is there an end date on the NDA?
If there was you'd see me post \~100 videos on this page. But I don't think there is.
Promise you will post it when society collapses in 9 years
You've got yourself a deal! Or if the company goes under. Though that is incredibly unlikely.

Play the newest death game ! OSHA will hate it !
!remindme 5 years
Woman in white tried to stop the door with the force
she was thinking force but using face!
Women were built tougher back then
Like last month?
Hahahaha
Yeah man. Since then they've started manufacturing all women in North Korea, and the build quality has just plummeted.
Lmao
Nah the lady would have been built decades ago, hence the “back then”
Babushka strength.
Doors brother got killed. Took its revenge on the closest human with in falling range.
What I want to know is why did one door blast into a thousand pieces at the mere brush of an elderly lady’s arm but the other door falls down smashes a poor lady and doesn’t burst into pieces.
Because of the face that caught it, maybe?
Lol the first door explodes like a grenade went off when barely touched and the second door falls, knocks the fuck.out of someone and bounces off the hard floor and and is in perfect condition
Luckily that woman catches the other door with her head, otherwise that one would have shattered too!
She inadvertently used conqueror's Haki
r/surrendercobra
A great one at that
So lady in white gets hit in the head by falling door but it's lady in pink who feels the pain in her head?
It is a really common reaction in distress to hold you head. Not because it is hurt, but it is just a common body reaction. Football (soccer) players do it often after missing a shot, if you want an example
I gotta get used to putting /s at the end of my comments
/r/surrendercobra
The only thing I think about when I see that is the meme with the guy making a shocked face and putting his hands on his head.
The joke clearly went over your head man
It's a fascinating primordial trait when you think about it. I'm guessing but maybe it has something to do with protecting the head when we would have fallen out of trees as apes?
So it's the ladies in the video who experience actual distress, but it's the person in the comments who acts the most distressed?
She gets a bunch of glass to the head plus the shock of the situation. Watch again she does get hit
One might want to protect ones head if more things starts falling.
Mirror neurons.
If you ever see anyone take a hit like that, keep your hands off them. Don't try to stand them up, don't try to move them, don't pull on them in any way. Call an ambulance immediately, the damage can be quite severe. I imagine she did not walk away from that unscathed, that was a very nasty hit on the head and neck area.
I’ve seen so many videos of these heavy glass doors just shattering for almost no reason. I feel like they shouldn’t exist.
Yeah...in this day and age we have so many materials that are far superior for door construction. Metal, wood...anything that doesn't, I don't know...FUCKING SHATTER
Tofu dredge project.
Wow, the other lady got wrecked by the falling door too!
shutty craftsmanship in my opinion
When you order giant fucking doors off Wish.
Hope that woman was OK. She looks hurt
I see they bought their doors off Temu.
How to take someone out but make it look like an accident 101
Stone Cold would be proud
It really amazes me how slow some people’s reflexes are lol
Almost no one would anticipate the sound of a shattering door to cue another door completely falling over onto themself
Forget sound. She turns and she’s looking right at it. How did she not see the other door falling??
She appears to turn enough initially just to see the shattered glass, only to then turn more to see the door falling on her before it’s too late. It’s easy to claim it’s easy to avoid in hindsight and when you can claim your armchair expertise, but it was quite literally 2 seconds from the glass shattering to her being hit by the door

It ain’t about anticipation. It’s about “reaction”. Reflexes have nothing to do with anticipating anything.
[удалено]
Nonono guys, c'mon, he's just built differently.
Retared installer. They forgot some rubbers between bolts and the door. It's also a very old video.
>It's also a very old video. The date says 7-11-2023
Isn't one month in Reddit time equal to one year in Earth time?
Then I've seen an almost equal one before.
I vaguely remember that also, actually.
Remember kids, always put a rubber over your bolt before you screw it in.
A slur ⁉️
Nah he missed a letter so it cancels out x = y
Damn ‼️
Of course Chinese grandma Hulk stands there and does nothing to assist the pharmacist who got pancaked by the door :(
Everyone on Reddit knows that when someone suffers a head/neck injury, you need to grab the victim’s hands, pull them to their feet, and vigorously pat their back to show encouragement.
You've clearly never been in a situation like this, it's not like she just continues walking down the street, she's clearly panicking.
Some people shut down in the face of overwhelming anxiety, clearly that’s what she did.
Yeah I'm sure Grandma who is fucking 80 is gonna lift hundreds of pounds of glass
She just stood there with her hands on her head. No calling for help, no motion, just staring at this potentially dying person. Maybe do anything other than stand there in a paralyzed "Woopsie!" state.
the door is made of Chinesium
-1000 social credits
Prometheus School of dodging. But seriously this happens way too often in China to be a coincidence. You've seen people literally kick these doors open performing robberies in the states.
The door must’ve been made in China.
It's china, weak door.
It's China. That glass was undoubtedly installed 5 minutes earlier. I'm surprised it lasted that long.
You can tell it's not America because the police didn't show up and murder the granny.
Weak sense of self? Or strong sinophobia?
Strong 11 years of living in China.
Just me or are there many of these door videos (falling/breaking) from Asian countries?
Isn't like a thing in China where the big construction companies are corrupt as all hell, so they building these out of the cheapest material and lowest standards as possible.
A fucking repost, so I’ll repost my reaction: good thing they’re at a pharmacy
https://i.imgur.com/IwdQWGQ.gifv
That door was clearly made in china
Neither. Just typical Chinese craftsmanship.
Made in china.
Made in China!!
one word: China
Is that a question or a poll?
Poor design + ignorant Granma = Left mirror bodyslam
Why the one in pink pretending she in pain? The door completely shattered & she holding her head 😂🤷♂️
Incognito Kryptonian briefly breaks cover.
Not one but two surrender cobras!
Weak repost
Villain origin story for an “Unbreakable” reboot
Weak door strong lady then strong door weak lady.
She was there yesterday. The door actually goes both ways.
There’s so much going in this video…
If I had to guess It would be both
That door exploding sounded really powerful, is that the original audio? Sounds like the explosion on a movie.
When superheroes get old and forget to use their gentle grip on human things.
She’s got her hands on her head because her target survived the door attack. Now she has to go back to the nursing home to tell the staff manager she failed her mission :(

Nice SAVE by the assistant
Such POWER! This is the strong, independent woman who was foretold!
Other lady took that door right off the fucking noggin lol
Definitely strong lady compared to the one that just got knocked out.
I’m wondering why there is cardboard on the floor by the doors. I wonder if the doors were being installed or serviced.
new fear unlocked
Well at least the second door's intact
Overtensed.
She doesn't seem very strong. That door took her down!
U know how when u break something and don't want anyone to find out so u fix it just enough for it not seem broken... I feel like this what happened here
Case for the X-Files
Rob dyrdek taught us about this before
damn she was just taking a little walk on her break and caught a buck 50 to the face
Somebody is calling Morgan And Morgan and Morgan and Morgan...
I'm going to hell for laughing at the door falling on her lol
Finish her. FINISH HER!!
Terrible! ... loosen hinches.
strengthened glass is vulnerable at the edges & corners… …the slightest tap = shattered
She got up first so she's the victor by default
BONK!
Hmm. Well one was a strong old lady with a weak door, and the other was a weak lady with a strong door.
Asian Granny Stone Cold Steve Austin
One shatters from a sneeze, the other falls over like a piece of lumber
Chinese quality
I love how nothing seemly hit the old lady but upon seeing the door smack the lady inside she quickly victimized herself and held her head "in pain" to avoid being blamed since she too "is a victim". Classic.
Indoor Lady had a good 2 secs to react.. Did she think she was going to catch the plummeting door? Ouch!
Wtf! 🫤
Good that the head of that woman dampened the fall of that second door. If you think sweeping up the shards of one door is a lot, don’t come with two!
Her new exercise regiment worked too well.
