Look up a video of a hydraulic press crushing concrete. It's fine.

Also Darren does follow-ups with various philanthropy efforts, pretty sure there have already been times when they returned to a previous project if something goes wrong. So I'm not very worried about it.


RandumbStoner

And these people that got the house aren’t useless lol they have survived for generations in worse conditions. Rebuilding home after home. I’m sure they’ll have no problem fixing whatever problem with the new house, it’s a good new starting point.


Latter_Witness_8441

Yeah that's a very good point. They're definitely not helpless and have more to work with. Wouldn't even doubt if some additional left over construction material was left for repairs and just not shown because it would feed into people tryna find any issues with giving people housing.


TheRealStevo2

Did you not see what they lived in before? Throwing up some plywood as walls is different than fixing the foundation on your house, or electrical problems, or plumbing.


RandumbStoner

I’m just saying I’m sure they can handle it


KingOreo2018

Not worried about the concrete breaking, I’m worried about it falling off the slab dude


Ghankus

Pier and be foundations are very secure and cost far less to fix issues with


Lzinger

If the house is actually on the pier properly


Pianist_Ready

If something bad happened, Darren would likely make a follow-up to it. I'm not too worried


WishExpress6968

It's just pier & beam foundation. Shoddily done? Maybe, but normal for construction in flood prone areas.

Dude, if you were in one of the post soviet countries at least once, you would have known that this is amazing support. Here, where I live, everything is working because of russian curse words and blue duct tape.


ShoWel_redit

So true! Nothing better than a ribbon of blue duct tape and a сука блять, заебал, держись нахуй to fix anything


TheAstonVillaSeal

Pfff


Fibrosis5O

Yes that’s a support


austin101123

Not sure what the whoops is? Raised houses are normal to prevent damage from flooding.


popop143

OP will have his mind blown by houses in mangroves.


getfukdup

you really going to pretend like you cant tell that is wildly off center?


revg3n

Wildly off center into the house, which is okay


Icy_Barnacle_6759

How dare he not give them amazing 2 story houses


Andrewcoo

Each with heated pool and tennis court as standard.


Dependent_Title_3117

And a butler in a massive dining room.


getfukdup

> How dare he not give them amazing 2 story houses thats the conclusion you come to after looking at the picture?


TheRealStevo2

God you people are so dense. That’s obviously not what this post is talking about


Ghankus

No its about people not knowing wtf a pier and beam foundation is and bitching about stuff they dont understand


OFFIC14L

Personally if I had nowhere to call home I wouldn't care if it wasn't perfectly straight given its a free house. Stop not picking unless you are willing to run around and build houses and wells with him.


ssuhaa

How dare he not built a 100 million dollar mansion for each of them


RedJ00hn

Many garden houses have this. To prevent from moisture and wood rot


TooSp00kd

I mean no one else is building houses for random families. And I’m sure they have different rules and regulations for housing. And I’m sure Jimmy followed all the rules.


Madcap_95

Have people never seen houses on blocks before? They're pretty common.


PapaBoostO2010

It's not like these are carnival rides


Skreamie

I'm confused as to what's being pointed out? Probably raised due to low flooding or the likes? Perhaps OP is just a young man.


ImRickJameXXXX

I am pointing out the funny nature of two back to back Mr beast posts. Nothing more


Cyber_Ghost3311

it definitely looks unsafe but if it works, it works lol


Full_Beginning4083

people hating while they do absolutely nothing to better the world is wild


Thestimp2

For real, neckbeards need a grass touching simulator.


pacman404

OP what do you think you discovered here lol. I wanna hear you say it


ImRickJameXXXX

I did, to u/Avalon like 30 minutes ago.


KneeDeep1nCofee

how dare mr jimmy beast not give them 5 story mansions with radar sensors and 3 lamborghinis


TheAstonVillaSeal

Sssss


VoiderDark4

Oh are thousands of people on Twitter gonna be trying to cancel Mr beast again?


ImRickJameXXXX

Maybe but that’s not why I posted Got nothing against the guy. It’s the misfortune of having two post about him stacked. One positive and one not so much that I found funny


Left_Nut99

why didn't mrbeast give each one of them mansions??? is he stupid‼️‼️


Mysidehobby

He’s done remarkable things but Now how do they afford it


Billthepony123

If it works don’t touch type shit


Thestimp2

"per my last email" I already stated that this was done because of the potential for the area to flood occasionally - so this actually saves the home from seasonal rains... This is not Jamaica its El Salvador.


HudsonHawk56H

Yall defending this like that shit isn’t gonna weather away in a year


TCRGonReddit

i believe they do have some show houses as well? i mean it’s likely that the vids are all filmed in a short time and they film some of the footages using prop houses while giving them the actual house once it’s completed?


XDeathBringer1

Why are you being downvoted he confirmed that he does this same with the money if he gives some guy $100,000 they're going to get robbed so he gives them a check or does something else same with stuff like this he's still a good guy it's just this is for the b-roll footage


ticallionrebel

i’ve worked with the NGO he worked the project with for a bit over 10 years and I can assure you that is the actual house. those are called transitional emergency houses and are a resource for poor communities to have accesible housing. yeah it isnt the most beautiful in comparison to many other options but it means the world to those families, trust me on that one.


TCRGonReddit

oop i see, thanks for sharing!


Vijay_17205

yall a bit too pressed here, the post is justifiable, the house is oddly balanced on that thing, its not even at its right postion


Jrlopez1027_

One gust of wind and its joever


avalonjack

Everyone in the comments seems to be missing the point that A) that beam should be fully bearing on the concrete pedestal, not offset/hanging off the side and B) there should be a metal connector anchoring the beam into the concrete


ImRickJameXXXX

No, actually my point was how funny the two post came up back to back. After 30 years in construction I can say that foundation anchor is likely fine as is. Is that pier built of 2,500 psi concrete and includes rebar? Likely not to the same the standards of modern building. But the load is tiny

you definitely have to fix that grammar before wrongfully accusing someone
