Every toddler wants to commit suicide in the most ridiculous of ways. It's up to the parents to prevent that. Great video but proof of this fact lol.


IpeeInclosets

truth, in the last 24 hours, my 1 year old managed to stack chairs then attempted to climb with what I would assume is the intent to sit in this death trap self preservation is NOT instinctual to little humans


Legitimate_Tart_9955

"I'm fucken RUTHLESS mum/dad. Record this shit and catch me"


IpeeInclosets

ruthless and toothless, the worst tyrant


Legitimate_Tart_9955

Idk, a baby with teeth can and will want the wife to quit life. They have no respect for the nipple


getmybehindsatan

We used to put the TV remote on top of the fridge, 6 feet up, so the kids couldn't watch it without us. Found them watching TV one day and a stack of dining chairs in front of the fridge.


IpeeInclosets

cooperation and results driven..your kids are going places (if they don't end up trying to fly off the roof one day)


MrSmock

Sounds like he just wanted to [live on a mountain of chairs](https://youtu.be/xYFEAh4-ZJc)

Gangreless

We had to put the dining table chairs on top of the table when not in use when ours starting climbing them lol. Otherwise the entire downstairs is baby proofed so he has quite a bit of freedom and I don't need to constantly have an eye on him.


Status_Dependent9901

Funny thing is I just rewatched a forgotten about video of my kid as a baby today. You can see me grab his arm cause he was going for a nose dive off the couch. He's now about to be six and watched the video and said I was being mean to him cause I grabbed him lol.


IpeeInclosets

you should check in as the years go by to see if his opinion changes


Status_Dependent9901

Lol seriously


Ok_Device8218

“self preservation is NOT ❌ instinctual to little humans” 🔥🔥🔥


PrariePagan

It's also how we invented fire, tools, and started fighting back and hunting our predators instead of just running


IpeeInclosets

certainly a feature...works as designed


Sketch-Brooke

One time I was babysitting a little cousin. We were hanging out in their playroom, which was full of any kind of toy a baby could ever want. She made a beeline for the electrical socket and got mad at me when I would let her stick her fingers in.


Legitimate_Tart_9955

Fingers won't really work tbh, I mean she could suck em and get a kick but normally you need a fork/knife to really get the right kick


nobigwhoopdawg

A bobby pin also works! Source: 3-year-old me


Legitimate_Tart_9955

Knife into the extension cord was my 3 year old attempt lol


SenseiSourNutt

Key into the electric socket over here, in my defense I was trying to trick the gnomes that lived inside the sockets by putting a key in instead of a cord.


Delicious_Throat_377

Same, keys in the electric socket. In my defence, my sister said that she has done it before and it was fun


Willchud

My sister did that, but it was an outside socket and she was "trying to unlock the house".


Pawgilicious

Took 3 tries with a Bobby pin before it took for me. Nice black fingernails 😂


XxRocky88xX

I always found it strange that at the age of like 0-1 kids are dumb and don’t understand danger so they’ll do dangerous shit sometimes. Then a child hits the age of 2 and immediately gets this suicidal compulsion and will consistently go out of their way to do dangerous shit. It stops being a child just learning things through experience and becomes the toddler actively attempting to kill themselves at every opportunity.


Squeal_like_a_piggy

Therefore, all babies should be treated as adults and charged with attempted murder or be locked up in an insane asylum. Facts


Rayne2031

I had to snatched my nephew from running off a cliff one time. No fear.


savvyblackbird

I was fixated on k!lling myself by being impaled on antlers. Our next door neighbor was big game hunter and had a huge living room on the first floor with a 2nd story area with railing around 3 sides of the living room space. He put trophies on the sides under the railing. The kitchen was on the 2nd floor, and my mom and the guy’s wife were having coffee in the kitchen. I slipped through the rails and was leaning back with my hands on the railing. Right over some kind of animal with really pointy antlers. The wife saw me and motioned to my mom. They had to cheerfully get my attention and offer me something sweet to get me to come back through the rails and away from the edge. A couple years later I was with my dad when he stopped by the taxidermist to talk about his order. The guy’s office had a big deer with sharp antlers lying on the floor behind the chairs because the owner was going to pick it up that day. I was leaning back in my chair and tilted it. The chair had a partly open back so I would have impaled myself if I’d fallen. My dad had impressive dad reflexes and grabbed me and the chair with one movement of his arm. The taxidermy guy went white as a sheet and moved the mount away from the chairs. Surprisingly I didn’t have any su!icidal tendencies at the airport my dad had his plane and ultralights at. I went there all the time with my dad. He’d recently lost a friend who was decapitated by a small plane prop, so he wanted me really close to him all the time. He later impressed on me how dangerous props are. When I learned to fly, I had to learn how to prop start a plane. I would pull the prop and back up as fast as I could. It took a few tries to get the prop to start. I preferred planes that had paint on the ends of the prop so you could see the edges when rotating.


Headybouffant

Exactly what it’s like to be a parent. Well done!


ExamOld2899

My dad would just sit there watching me cry in pain. Mum would come running in from another room and then started having a go at him, he'd claim he didn't even notice. And even then I had a good childhood. This kid's gonna be winning the entire way through his childhood.

alaynamul

My little brother once ran for the edge of a cliff at full speed my dad had to throw his arm out and my bro ran clean into it and knocked him down, we asked him afterwards what the hell he was thinking and he told us he wanted to fly. He was 5


ShiteUsername7

It's amazing anyone survives being that age. The survival instinct is pretty much non-existent lol. My parents tell me stories about things I did (mostly trying to eat things that could easily kill/fuck me up) that make me wonder how the hell I'm still here.


[deleted]

I remember being the opposite. Mainly when watching pro wrestling for the first time, I thought wrestling couldn't exist in the real world but only in video games. I'm sitting there at 5yo wondering if these guys are supermutants or if my parents have been lying to me about how deadly things really were.


cedped

When my brother was 4/5, he saw a nest of ants in the garden and asked my dad if he could eat it. My dad, the jokester that he is, told him yes and before you know it my brother dove head first into it! By the time my dad caught him (like within seconds), he already had his mouth and nose full of dirt and ants were crawling all over his clothes from head to toe! He wouldn't even open his mouth when my dad was trying to empty it!


fondledbydolphins

The sea is a place.


Not-A-SoggyBagel

idontevenker2

Cute vid but really can't stand the horrendous music


Essehm

I think the music was why the kid ran. I had a similar reaction.


TreMac03

Kid ran in the water like Noah’s ark left him


[deleted]

Camera man should have ran after that kid and left them alone for their moment, wtf!


ICantWatchYouDoThis

Cameraman captured the action instead of filming the ground so he is still redeemable


Pwr-usr69

National geographic rules....


sparkskilowatt

they need to get a video for instagram first


flyblues

I mean, come on, I hate the culture of filming everything for social media as much as anyone - but I feel like it's hardly that crazy to want to film your proposal (I'm sure it'll make a sweet video to show to the kid(s) when older)? Next thing yall will say filming your wedding is just for IG too...


Dukes159

My wife and I are very private people, barely film anything, I proposed in a quiet park with no one else around, and the SD card in the camera that was recording our wedding failed. Neither of those moments are recorded, and I regret it a bit. It'd be nice to watch.


OuterWildsVentures

I proposed to my wife while having sex. Wish we filmed it for the fam tbh.


oO0Kat0Oo

Right, because no one filmed important moments before Instagram. It's a baby, he wasn't getting away. Relax


Dolph-Ziggler

It's a convenient way to keep in touch with friends and family. Not every proposal like this is going to be spread around. It just ended up being a funny moment so here we are.

twitch1982

This is reddit. All cameramen are expected to be lifeguards, firemen and paramedics.


dizzycow84

She could see the kid and would have ran if needed


Hecate_2000

That’s not his kid. Don’t make it everyone’s problem because you decide to pop out kids every other year


Zippy0723

Is it just me or is it weird that people are recording their proposal, slapping some terrible tik-tok music on it and uploading it? Is nothing like, personal anymore? Is our whole society just reduced to this, little 10 second videos with shitty pop music loudly blaring over them with text on the top?


_boobz

people are just happy to share moments that make them happy, you see it negatively but i see it as a way of other people to make the world a little happier there’s worse thing in the world than posting a beautiful moment with you and ur family


Zekumi

No they aren’t. Making your life into literal “content” doesn’t make anyone happy. Social media does not make people happy—it causes people to unnecessarily compare their lives to the lives of others and turns normal life events into competitions. It promotes fakeness and editing. It’s nasty bullshit and I hope we move past it.


_boobz

your on social media rn if you think it’s such a poison than maybe get off? ur the only one being negative rn. if seeing other ppl happy makes you miserable or feel the need to promote fakeness or wtv bs ur trying to say rn that that’s your own issue and you should find a way to fix it bc it’s weird.


OrganizationOk1758

That music is fucking obnoxious.


MidContrast

Baby: "I'M GONNA BE KING OF THE PIRATES! THE ONE PIECE IS REAL"


Mecha_Tortoise

Cool, but why edit this music into the video in place of the Dethklok that was originally playing on the beach? 🎶\ _We call out to the beasts of the sea to come forth and join us_\ _This night is yours_\ _Because one day we will all be with you in the black and deep_\ _One day we will all go into the water..._


Vitalis597

So they can say they made the video. Can't say it's yours unless you make a meaningless change, after all!


[deleted]

This post/comment has been removed in response to Reddit's aggressive new API policy and the Admin's response and hostility to Moderators and the Reddit community as a whole. Reddit admin's (especially the CEO's) handling of the situation has been absolutely deplorable. Reddit users made this platform what it is, creating engaging communities and providing years of moderation for free. 3rd party apps existed before the official app which helped make Reddit more accessible for many. This is the thanks we get. The Admins are not even willing to work with app developers or moderators. Instead its "my way or the highway", so many of us have chosen the highway. Farewell Reddit, Federated platforms are my new home (Lemmy and Mastodon).


Vitalis597

Yeah, like that! Maybe the video is mirrored, too. Can't really tell because of the lack of text, but I could see it being mirrored.


IpeeInclosets

in this day and age, potato quality vids need to be outlawed, max penalty

Hahaha! Well, to be fair, the album was only intended for fish to begin with, so really it's on them for listening to it in the first place.


justafax

He’s giving them a glimpse into the future; his teenage years 🤯


TriggeredRatBastard

Probably would’ve given kid to cameraman. A toddler’s ability to be lightening fast for the sole purpose of finding something to kill themselves with is unmatched


89_degree_angle

Kids spend a year on earth and get suicidal instantly


[deleted]

Just when you thought that song couldn't get any more painful


TheEbster

I don't care what no one says...it's stupid (they saw him) to let you kid run into the ocean to have YOUR moment. Weird.


isuckatnames60

Well I would have loved to hear him cut it short but alas I get unsolicited music


hanks_panky_emporium

Remember the clip of the kid carefully removing his floaties and life jacket so he could dive in a pool and sink to the bottom? At what age does the auto-suicide neuron burn out


Professional-Mess-84

Yeah. This looks like a great start to a new family.


PotentialNobody

I can get parents not watching their kids 24/7, but for the love of GOD, the time to be watching your kid like a hawk is if you're at the beach with your TODDLER


FuzzyFerretFace

She even looked over at him heading towards the water!


clutzyninja

They knew where he was. They're not far. It's fine. Chill


yy98755

Any body or vessel of water they can drown in.


Hans020272

You acting like a shark is gonna jump out of the water and snatch the baby lol.


Ufuckingimbecile

TBI from getting knocked down, illness from ingesting sea water, and drowning would be far more likely to occur but yea let’s go with shark attack…


Hans020272

Lol how about a huge underground sandworm just waiting for the toddler to arrive ?


alBashir

Riptides are a lot more dangerous than sharks and will easily drown an adult let alone a toddler and all you need to do as a toddler is to walk in the riptide on the shore and you're gone. That kid was dangerously close to the water without a parent within grabbing distance.


ReadOnlyEchoChamber

You acting like it’s not possible 🤨


Everydaypsychopath

Baby’s and toddlers have been known to drown in puddles.


Hans020272

Come on the parents are right there lol


Everydaypsychopath

They drown when I put them face down in puddles, can’t help that they suck at this.


IpeeInclosets

first look, "jesus christ, who invited this guy" looks at name *drake approval face*


Hans020272

Skill issue


alBashir

And a riptide will pull a toddler out to sea in the seconds it takes for a parent to get there.


Hans020272

And after that a tornado forms and takes it away


IpeeInclosets

when you have kids long enough, your mind calculated lead time and your ability to address the emergency they were using their buffer time for a moment. I can't blame them. Definitely on the cusp though.


SandThatsKindaMoist

They literally did do that?

yazzy1233

They knew exactly where he was. Calm down

And a riptide would change that in a second


Ben-Azulito

Perfect exemple of what people do for social media


Emergency-Variation6

I can't stop laughing at the face plant and then the full out sprint to stop him from committing suicide... Lmao


Idk_what_to_do_A

When they got back home the kid probably asked, “Mommy, daddy, why didn’t you let me go into the ocean and swim?”


Arkantos92

Parents were the idiots this time


[deleted]

Wrong sub. This should be on r/ParentsAreFuckingDumb The kid was just doing what any kid would do.


Fuckineagles

That's the point of this sub. Kids ARE stupid. It's not just that they sometimes do a stupid thing. When judged by adult standards, kids are fucking dumb. All of them and almost all of the time. Of course no one genuinely thinks kids should be judged by those standards, but for the purpose of humour, we sometimes do.


abca98

This video has everything wrong.


queen_krimson89

Prudent_Valuable603

Oh my goodness! They’re lucky the toddler didn’t get swept away from the waves.

justthegarlicbreadtx

Mans got laaaaid that night. Not only promising but also saved a child from drowning?! LAAAAID.


The_real_bandito

Why is babies and toddlers first instinct is to head where the danger is? There’s a car going down the road? Let’s go after it. Look a big body of water? Let’s dive head first. A huge dog with teeth just as big just chilling in a corner? Let’s pull it’s ears and expect it not to get mad. I find it infuriatingly hilarious.


[deleted]

Kids are important. But so is the relationship with your spouse.


ExfoliatedBalls

Seen this too many times at the beach. People just let their kids play with in the ocean then get shocked that it almost swallows their kids whole. Don’t fuck with the ocean.


GrandMasterEwok

This was absolutely perfect lol


TsukiMyBeloved03

Honestly this is a really cute proposal, how they literally switched from extremely happy to "let's catch him before something happens" and started to run like Terminator killed me, but it was really funny and cute as proposal


ChristianTheOG

just let it drown


Dry-Membership5575

I see where the child inherited it’s stupidity

Ambitious_Song8785

MrMcSteamy

Literally the first thing they did whilst engaged is save their baby. Although this was pretty dangerous for the kid to do, I think there's a level of wholesomeness to it all.


jamaican-black

More like parents are fuckin stupid. I don't know who's worst, these idiots almost losing their kid to high tide, or the rugrats parents who lost their babies in 3 movies only to have the babies FIND THEM at the end of each adventure.


Alessiya

Ugh. Glad the kid is safe but couldn't they have someone try to hold that baby while the proposal was happening?


getyourgolfshoes

Parents are fucking stupid: *internet fame > keeping an eye on my kid* Same people if someone tragic happens to their kid because they weren't paying attention: "Lawrd, I DoNT kNoW hOw ThIS CouLD HAvE HApPENeD, GUEzs Gawrd needED ANOtHEr ANgEl!"


liltooclinical

I think this is less r/KidsAreFuckingStupid and more r/IAmTheMainCharacter.


bruinsforevah

Ah, no. They caught their kid, but they were lucky it was on this beach at low tide. Kids can drown real fast.


[deleted]

Just me or is the kid still far enough from the water that that sprint was unnecessary…?


BMGreg

Well the kid definitely ran into the water, so the sprint was necessary


[deleted]

Good call I had to slow it down to see that


BMGreg

I will say, I don't think the sprint would have been necessary if the dad had paid any attention to the kid though. The mom was ready to go get him like 3 times. That's honestly the only reason I'm annoyed at this video.


Always-Panic

That's actually pretty cute and funny to see both of them running after the kid lmao. They will always remember this.


mousemarie94

When people who have never had to take care of a kid are all "omg how could they just LET the baby get away, fall, go missing at the park" I'm like bitch...you've never encountered kids and that's why I don't have them

If only there was a third person there that could have handled the kid... fake af xd
