I think the two-dollar term in children’s programming is “non-repeatable violence.” Works on kinda the same level as actionable threats. If an idiot child could do what a character did… you’re not supposed to show that. Their little brother won’t fare as well as the cartoon fox that just took a baseball bat to the dome.
On the other hand, little Timmy, age 9, presumably does not have access to a bandsaw.
I had attempted a back flip off a kicker ramp propped up on the curb (into grass, it was to learn how, lol)
Anyway, I go UP, flip and land halfway over with my head contacting the curb.
It gave me a concussion, and took a chunk out of my helmet. I would have been dead most likely if I didn’t wear a helmet.
I just dragged the ramp in, and went to lay down with my skates still on. I don’t remember much after that.
Well landing on a trampoline versus landing on basically anything else is a big difference. If I haven’t landed on my head half a dozen times while in the trampoline, then I haven’t landed on my head at all.
I mean, your neck doesn’t handle the rebound like your legs do. btdt
Yeah but as the trampoline slows your fall, you probably won’t stay perfectly balanced on your neck, so the rebound won’t push your head directly into your neck with all of the energy. You don’t get that effect without something giving as you land. Better it be a trampoline then your neck.
Man… kids are indestructible
Kids bones are much more flexible than adult bones. They get harder with age. So a child can withstand much more stuff without breaking a bone than an adult.
Optimised for the mines.
And operating the autolooms
I wish that were true for me. I broke my arms 3 times as a kid lmao.
“We are out of Bort license plates!”
I got to believe sometimes in that theory that when we should’ve died, our consciousness escapes to a parallel reality.
I have had too many close calls. Statistically, I probably shouldn’t be alive.
This one time my motorbikes front brake seized up as I slowed down to an intersection. I was thrown off my bike and landed as the lane cleared.
Then the time I worked as a glazier and this dipshit dropped a giant pane of glass on his toe, which snapped in half and almost decapitated me.
Then another time I was a half-second away from being t-boned on my drivers side door by someone doing 80km/h, thank you videogames for training my spacial awareness and reaction time.
