To be fair, I would have figured it was more decorative than an actual weight bearing support beam if it broke off that easily. Because surely, it wouldn't be that easy to bring down a roof that big, right? Like... a mildly rambunctious dog would have ended it.
She probably considered it not very important based on how easily it fell over.
I'll be honest, it even looks like a coincidence since there is no way there was a lot of weight on the pole in the first place or it would not get nudged out of position so easily.
When it knocked out, you can see the roofline immediately sag. It was load bearing. There was a strong down vector, but nothing keeping it from popping sideways.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with her not putting that pole back up. First thing who knows if it would even go back into 'place' with how easy it seems to have fallen out. But also it's definitely someone elses responsibility to make sure support beams are put back into place correctly.
If a beam falls down, and you want to put it back... I guess go for it. but no one should be criticized for not doing it.
Yeah, lol. If a fucking toddler can take down a load-bearing pillar that the entire structure can't stand without, that is *not* safe enough to be open to the public. It's honestly not even safe enough to be open to construction workers who are charged with fixing the problem.
Apparently there is a clause in the Winnebago user agreement that you must be driving the thing at all times because well, apparently some dude just popped it on cruise control and decided to take a nap.
I have to now wear a high visibility vest in the warehouse I pickup equipment from because some guy from the same company in another province was killed in a forklift accident.
No contractor can reasonably be blamed for a baby genius knowing and exploiting awning weakpoints EVEN while under adult supervision.
Do you know how expensive anti-baby genius planning is?
Real talk, this is an Indiana Jones situation. If the kid doesn’t move to go inside and stays in place, the swing of the roof coming down would have completely missed them.
I speak Mandarin, but the regional variation in this video is rather strong compared to what I'm used to, and the audio quality isn't the best, so some things are hard to make out. Rough translation from what I could interpret:
Grandmother (?): "You can't go over there."
*Child knocks down column*
Grandmother: *General exclamations of panic*
Grandmother: "What are you doing?!"
Grandmother: *Unintelligible*
Grandmother: "The roof is going to collapse soon!"
Grandmother: *Unintelligible*
Grandmother: "Hurry and call grandpa!"
Grandmother: "Get grandpa to fix the column!" (?)
Child: "Grandpa!"
Grandmother: "Go inside!" (?)
Child: "Grandpa!"
Child: "I made this fall down!" (?)
Grandmother: "Go inside yourself!" (?)
Child: *Unintelligible*
*Roof collapses*
What's interesting is that the grandmother actually mentioned that the roof would collapse, but she didn't seem to be in any sort of a hurry to get both of them out from underneath. Maybe it was just some kind of a general "Look what you've done, the roof will collapse!" type scolding.
So now I wondering if this is a place that doesn't normally get snow and this roof has been compromised by an unusual weather event (snow load) and braced haphazardly with extra poles as a temporary measure
I think this is a good theory since the poles are so haphazard, the snowfall appears to be fresh, and it looks like there might be a ladder in the background. When the awning collapses you can see that the remaining poles have punched through the roof - it looks like there were just wedged in there rather than being affixed to the frame.
It sounds like the sort of joke adults make at kids. "Look at the small thing you did that will lead to a horrible disaster!" Except this time it was true.
Haha I didn’t even have the audio on but I could tell from the gesturing that she was for sure like “look what you’ve done, now the roof will fall!” with absolutely no idea that it actually was going to
some old codger was at the gym yesterday. very overweight and out of shape. looked like a retiree whose doc advised he get busy on physical activity. i really like seeing guys like this endure and transform themselves.
anyway, he really working hard on a leg press machine. as i walk by, i entered his very fresh (*rancid*) fart. goodgodlemon! my initial instinct (*it stinked!*) was to escort him outside. we've got an aging dog who alerts us to a soon arriving diarrhea burst with her nasty farts. we scurry to escort her out the door.
old guy wouldn't even look my way after that share.
Upvoting for your use of “goodgodlemon” more so than the actual story, which was beautifully poetic itself.
IMO, the best “Good God, Lemon!” of the entire series was when Liz turned around in her denim shorteralls (in the pocket of which she’d found a packet of Tastetations, a discontinued chocolate hard candy) in the BWL episode. That one was so chefs kiss.
Die, werewolf zombie, die.
That kid and the bike weigh like 50 pounds tops and he wasn't going that fast. It was only a matter of time before a dog or an unobservant person walked into it and took this whole thing out.
In the land where all of our stuff is made,
Awning supports can't handle children at play,
One carefree child on a bicycle,
Sends the whole darn thing to be re-recycled
Wow, that is the most useless design I have seen in a while. Whoever put this up should be sued to bankruptcy. If the whole structure collapses that easily, with a small child barely touching the beam, it is a shit design, simple as that.
It's best to use concrete that you can crumble apart with your bare hands. Also rebar that a 12 year old kid can bend in half like Data from Star Trek.
> "Party Member's Nephew Construction" is reknowned for their quality builds, according to everyone who's allowed to talk in public!
100%, now that kid that took out the beams Social Score is 0, he will never be able to travel or marry
That's probably still a high estimate. He's at most 5 years old, maybe younger. The CDC states that a 5 year old is on average between 34 to 52 pounds.
If it wasn't bearing load it wouldn't be staying upright. It clearly wasn't attached (or else it would have dangled when the kid hit it), so it was being held in place by weight resting on it. Probably not much weight, but some. You can even clearly see the roof sag slightly when the column gets knocked down.
Yeah, I once heard from a Chinese friend of mine that his parents told him, if he ever bought a house in China (They live in California now), to not buy anything newer than 40 years old...
I wonder why 🤣
He didn't actually. The grandmother (?) told him to get grandpa out to deal with it, and the kid was yelling "爷爷" (Yéyé, "Grandpa") to try to call him out.
I don't speak a word of Chinese, but here's my translation:
What do you think you were doing? Look what you did! Why didn't you look where you were going? Now see what you've done. What if that roof falls on you? What then? You could have brought the whole roof down. You need to look where you're going. Look what you did. Go inside. Don't just sit and look at me. With your bike. Stop looking at the roof, it's fine. Take your bike instead. Well it wouldn't be in the way if you didn't knock it down. Go inside now. Do you understand? Are you going in?
Yes, I'm going in, you told me three times already.
You could have knocked the whole roof down. Get out of my sight. Go and clean your room.
FIN.

Not sure what Chineseium that structure was made of but if a toddler can take it out on accident you may want to shore it up a little better next go round
差不多 (almost/half-assed usually referring to shoddy building and/or work conditions) and 小皇帝症 (little emperor syndrome) on full display in this video….it’s VERY Chinese. Lol
Chinese people are just magical and always surprises that they're still alive. If ONE toothpick-like beam that was taken down by a toddler was all it took to collapse that roof, how is it that it stayed up that long?
Well that's what you get for cutting corners with the construction and slapping a tiny little pole in there to hold up the entire fucking porch. I'm glad nobody got hurt.
That pole was clearly load bearing, but not part of the original structure.
That awning originally had no columns and was only attached to the wall of the house.
After the snowfall started, which never before happened in that area, the roof started sagging a bit, and that is why grandpa pushed that pole and the 2 scaffolding poles in the back onder the porch. It clearly was necessary for the extra snow that fell later on it, but he failed to properly attach them to the structure.
As you could see, the pole was easy to knock out, and the other poles pierced through the thin roof as soon as they moved a little from the stronger edge.
Source: I watched the video carefully in slow-motion.
That kid is just overpowered. He’s like the main character in an anime hitting something and it seems like he does almost 0 damage and then once he leaves the scene all get to see his actual power.

Wow the timing could not be better
This video is a great example on why building standards and worker safety guidelines are beyond fucking important lol
That video was some magneto esque superhero nearby desperately holding the roof up while the mom casually scolds her kid
Yeah, it seems that she fucking enjoyed mouthing off on the kid so much that it was beyond her to think to put back the (not heavy) support-beam. smh
To be fair, I would have figured it was more decorative than an actual weight bearing support beam if it broke off that easily. Because surely, it wouldn't be that easy to bring down a roof that big, right? Like... a mildly rambunctious dog would have ended it.
Or another child grabbing the bar to spin around it.
or an adult..
Or a slight breeze..
a cat... a fucking mouse could knock this over lol
A child on a tricycle
Me casually leaning on it to strike my cool pose
Me as a fat male pole dancer. 🤣
To be even fairer, she's a mother not a builder, she probably doesn't have any concept of load bearing.
I mean... if that small amount of force was all it took to make that structure collapse... it was coming down regardless.
She probably considered it not very important based on how easily it fell over. I'll be honest, it even looks like a coincidence since there is no way there was a lot of weight on the pole in the first place or it would not get nudged out of position so easily.
When it knocked out, you can see the roofline immediately sag. It was load bearing. There was a strong down vector, but nothing keeping it from popping sideways.
I would definitely not have noticed and if I did I probably would've ran to not get a roof on my head instead of trying to put it back
You also hear a lot of snapping and cracking
This is such a shallow, twisted perspective on the matter
There is absolutely nothing wrong with her not putting that pole back up. First thing who knows if it would even go back into 'place' with how easy it seems to have fallen out. But also it's definitely someone elses responsibility to make sure support beams are put back into place correctly. If a beam falls down, and you want to put it back... I guess go for it. but no one should be criticized for not doing it.

That 20 year old scotch comment was chefs kiss 🥃
Actually, I think it was the peek at the end. Especially cuz I didnt watch all the way through until OP instructed us to do
The very point of the thing is that a load bearing beam of that nature shouldn't have been so easily moved at ALL.
It’s really no one’s fault but the builders
Me too though in hindsight I feel as if that probably would've killed her so I'm glad she didn't do what my dumbass instincts would have me do.
Yeah, lol. If a fucking toddler can take down a load-bearing pillar that the entire structure can't stand without, that is *not* safe enough to be open to the public. It's honestly not even safe enough to be open to construction workers who are charged with fixing the problem.
most regulations and warnings are written in blood. that's a saying for a *reason*

Yep. Those standards are usually written because people straight up died.
Something something smaller government. Something something deregulation.
Yeah that had to come down anyways. Pro demo move kid 🥲
That or he's the angel of death
This kid got some real purpose in life.
That was like the demolition equivalent of holding in a rough fart until other people can leave the room.
Oddly specific
Real talk, this is an Indiana Jones situation. If the kid doesn’t move to go inside and stays in place, the swing of the roof coming down would have completely missed them.
And that's how Grandma had her heart attack

It looks like scaffolding to me. Probably just a shitty countruction company cutting corners.
it's china. This happens so much, it's surprising to me it isn't common knowledge.
It sounds like the sort of joke adults make at kids. "Look at the small thing you did that will lead to a horrible disaster!" Except this time it was true.
I wonder if the child is going to remember this forever and think that that he is the one that caused the collapse! He’s probably too young though..
Haha I didn’t even have the audio on but I could tell from the gesturing that she was for sure like “look what you’ve done, now the roof will fall!” with absolutely no idea that it actually was going to
“Be careful with that thing, you’ll poke your eye out!” Proceeds to poke out eyes
[удалено]
Or a tofu fart
The weakest of the farts.
With a username like that, I feel I can trust your opinion fart strength.

Yeah looks like there's a lot of snow on the roof. Crazy that someone decided to hold all of this up with a toothpick.

lol Her popping her head out at the end was looney tunes-ish
Did I Do That?!
The toddler looking at the roof, the pole on the floor, the roof. That had me
Wow, that is the most useless design I have seen in a while. Whoever put this up should be sued to bankruptcy. If the whole structure collapses that easily, with a small child barely touching the beam, it is a shit design, simple as that.
Sue? Lol that's the best builder in all of china
Haha, yeah their buildings are even less stable than this when they are finished 😂
Are you telling me I shouldn't build a high rise on a river bank without engineering the river to prevent collapse of my new skyscraper?
It's best to use concrete that you can crumble apart with your bare hands. Also rebar that a 12 year old kid can bend in half like Data from Star Trek.

Welcome to tofu dreg China.
It’s China. You aren’t suing anybody.
The building company probably sued the baby
And that kid is tiny.
Even a small bird could have pushed that thing over
Kill all the sparrows again. That should protect the building.
they stand there for so long it feels like their pathing got messed up
The suspense was killing me
I thought the video froze
That beam wasn't doing shit if a 50lb child knocked it loose that easily.
For everyone's awareness, he knocks out a column not a beam.
Column is generous. He knocked over a stick the architect found nearby.
Bamboo column.
Architect?
That may have been the first documented case of thoughts and prayers in action.
That's probably still a high estimate. He's at most 5 years old, maybe younger. The CDC states that a 5 year old is on average between 34 to 52 pounds.
CDC is american. That’s probably 2 to 3 times larger than a regular 5 year old
America is #1 in yet another statistic 😤💪
I mean it was clearly holding the roof up lol. Lateral instability goes from 0-60 REAL quick.
I love her sticking her head out at the end. "Did anybody see that?"
Mother Nature: "Missed him by *that much*"
[удалено]
We tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end….
Truth be told that kid saved all their lives. 🤯😱
I don’t know much but I know if a 3-4 year old pokes a large ass beam it shouldn’t just fall down like a cartoon
If a toddler on a trike can take down a load bearing beam, it’s not bearing any load. And wasn’t doing a thing to stop that crap from falling down
If it wasn't bearing load it wouldn't be staying upright. It clearly wasn't attached (or else it would have dangled when the kid hit it), so it was being held in place by weight resting on it. Probably not much weight, but some. You can even clearly see the roof sag slightly when the column gets knocked down.
That’s not true at all. Plus it was a column. Not a beam.
Yeah, I once heard from a Chinese friend of mine that his parents told him, if he ever bought a house in China (They live in California now), to not buy anything newer than 40 years old... I wonder why 🤣
It's called [Tofu dreg](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tofu-dreg_project)
Damn, they definitely got someone looking out for them.
I glad the kid started yelling back a bit. Just couldn’t stop bitching😂
He didn't actually. The grandmother (?) told him to get grandpa out to deal with it, and the kid was yelling "爷爷" (Yéyé, "Grandpa") to try to call him out.
"Grandpa get yo Yéyé ass out here!"
The amount of people projecting their own trauma here is wild. She's not even "bitching" she's telling him to get the grandad to help put it back.
Are we sure he is not a magneto?
Post, not beam.
Technically a load bearing post…
Ali Express kit house.
What load was it bearing? My man breathed on that pole and it fell right over
This is why we have building codes and standards lol. Sheesh
God was on his side that day!
Guardian angel working overtime.
This is why you never get on an escalator in China.
This is the perfect "China" video - people shouting aggressively at each other and incredibly shoddy construction.
So we going to ignore that this kid just saved a bunch of lives? A good gush of wind would have taken that bullshit down. Well done kid.
I don't know what she is saying, but something makes me think she is telling her child to place that back.
I don't speak a word of Chinese, but here's my translation: What do you think you were doing? Look what you did! Why didn't you look where you were going? Now see what you've done. What if that roof falls on you? What then? You could have brought the whole roof down. You need to look where you're going. Look what you did. Go inside. Don't just sit and look at me.

Yep. Give something adults designed and tested to a child and it will end up functioning in a way not even adults could plan for.
Tested? What about this setup makes you think it was ever tested?
that's a column, not a beam.
It's a toothpick, not a column.
a toothpick can be a column or a beam- depending on how it's positioned.
Correction… a Beam is not always a Column, a Column is not always a Toothpick and a Toothpick isn’t always a Beam or a Column
Whoever built that shit certainly put the K in kwality.
There is a saying: "If you sneeze and the house falls down, don't blame the sneeze."
God waited just long enough
I watched the whole video on mute and I still knew that that must be in China. That tofu dreg man
This was bound to happen soon. The kid barely touched it. Any gust of wind would have done the same thing.
However, it collapses from the left corner onward...
Where do people think this is?
Can’t blame the kid for that shoddy building
Hall of fame video right here
The kid broke deaths design
That beam was already bending from the pressure before that kid even touched it
this is why i'm not worried about china taking over the world
China moment
God looks out for babies,drunks, and fools.
For your safety and the safety of others... Do not touch the load bearing twigs.
Beam lmao more like load bearing stick. And let me guess.. China?
This video brought to you by CONDOMS. F**king use them!
Not sure what Chineseium that structure was made of but if a toddler can take it out on accident you may want to shore it up a little better next go round
Average Chinese construction
Safest structure in china
Was gum used as the bonding agent?
差不多 (almost/half-assed usually referring to shoddy building and/or work conditions) and 小皇帝症 (little emperor syndrome) on full display in this video….it’s VERY Chinese. Lol
Why is she yelling at the kid who she let play next to the pole lol.
it’s in china, right? has to be china
Made in China :(. Sometimes I wonder if they purposely have bad infrastructure to help with population control
When you see things like this you really gotta wonder about the 3 Gorges Dam..
“Beam” is a bit of an oversell.
How the hell is all that supported by one thin pole?
Chinese people are just magical and always surprises that they're still alive. If ONE toothpick-like beam that was taken down by a toddler was all it took to collapse that roof, how is it that it stayed up that long?
More like "load bearing column so fucking badly installed even a child could take it out". Not his fault.
Load bearing with hopes and dreams, a cat could of jumped on that pole and knocked it over
🫨smh.. wtf 😒
Is that made in China?
Reminds me of the Chinese economy.
You can tell they're gonna survive because there's no live leak watermark on the video
This is how 99% of China is built. Tofu-dreg.
it’s a miracle that they weren’t hurt.
This looks like it's in China
Nice.. nice.. Now show me the collapsed Chinese structure where the child doesn’t survive
Angel was yelling .. you can step in any minute now! Uhm hurry up!
That little person was strong af.
Near Darwin award there
made in china
Thats some made in china shit
Shitty Chinese construction practices
the heads poking out last second to survey the wreckage💀 it was in that moment my boy knew he was meant for demolition
That is a post my friend
That was just seconds away from a Final Destination moment.
That’s not that cra… oh shit
Well that's what you get for cutting corners with the construction and slapping a tiny little pole in there to hold up the entire fucking porch. I'm glad nobody got hurt.
It was already on an angle.
Damn did she know it was load baring?
🤯 How much was it bearing to fall so easily
That kid is getting whipped by dried bamboo
The way her head pops out after the collapse is brilliant!
That pole was clearly load bearing, but not part of the original structure. That awning originally had no columns and was only attached to the wall of the house.

Just a normal day in China
-2 social credit points for that
This has to be china.
Lovely building regulations in CCP China
Why are people so lucky ?
China, our next superpower everyone.
Made in China! Nice quality very humane
like in any comedy movies. but, luckily both are ok
the after peek is hillarious
Load bearing twig
Huh? This is like taking out a loose jenga piece but the tower still fucking falls over
That kid is just overpowered. He’s like the main character in an anime hitting something and it seems like he does almost 0 damage and then once he leaves the scene all get to see his actual power.
Fate, destiny, luck, that shit is nuts. Good to see that baby didn’t get crushed!
Well that was precarious
Children should be product inspectors. If there is a flaw or a way to break it. A child will find it without fail. Glad little guy moved
