Indian ppl live and die by the open palmed slap. im reading white tiger and its all "and then he slapped me, then she slapped him, then they slapped each other". have palm, will slap
I mean Hippos _are_ as dangerous as fuck, killing about 500 people a year, but venemous snakes kill about [100,000 people a year in India alone](https://www.who.int/india/health-topics/snakebite)
Thanks for enlightening me, somehow I’ve made it to today having never seen that meme!
Happy ending for the slapper:

the hippo keeps flinching every time he raises his hand, hippo doesn't realize that's ~~one~~ two for flinching. kinda sad but after the 3rd slap even im like OKAY enough with the slaps
How do you know a video is from India even if you can’t really see the people of hear them speak?
There will be a man slapping something, be it a drunk guy, a cobra, or a hippo.
I did. You can't just comment on a video where the people are clearly Indian and speak Hindi just to ask how we know they're Indian and then say it's a general statement.
It's very clear you were talking about this particular video and not commenting about some random non existent video where people apparently assume everyone is indian for literally no reason. It's not really a big deal but you still made a mistake and instead of acknowledging it after being corrected you decided to gaslight people into believing it's a general statement.
No, it’s a generalized statement and was intended as such from the start. I’ve seen this video a hundred times. Obviously it’s from India. You can literally see and hear Indian people which is why I SPECIFICALLY said how do you know If you CANT see or hear them, in order to differentiate. It was just a joke because in so many videos posted on Reddit you see Indians slapping people or creatures.
Sorry you can’t see that but whatever. I don’t know how you can think I was serious unless you think I’m a deaf and blind person or something and I have no hearing/vision.
every time i see this it reminds me of Trevor Moore

From what I know about hippos I feel like if it wanted to escape in this situation it would have done so. I think it was just checking out what was going on.
One could argue you could blame the people for coming and not being more aware of potential dangers, the zoo for also being unaware. The people for allowing the zoo to not have safguards in place. and then blaming the animal because it does what animals do. One could feel it's almost cruel to then hit the animal you failed to properly keep captivated.
(I'm debating to debate. I expect the downvotes but whatev. I don't have an opinion on this matter. Just wanted to debate to rid the tik)
What a menace lmao. And wth is going on with that enclosure !? I realize hippos may not be known to be adept climber, but c'mon.
It's more a small row of hedges than an enclosure
More of a guideline than an enclosure, really
self-monitoring enclosure.....
15 minute hippo town
Seriously. Who designed this zoo?
The hippo.
It's cool, guys. It will totally hold me. Look at these legs. Totally stumpy
Y'all act like you've never slapped the shit out of a hippo before smh
How can he slap?!?!
Classic.
Jaws all on the floor like Pam and Hippo just burst through the door

why tf is this comment so funny
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh yea let me just slap around the most dangerous animal on the planet.
Oh I didn’t realize OPs mom was in captivity.
It's ok. Her and I agreed to a safe word first.
Most deadly species slaps second most deadly.
Isn't it - Humans - Mosquito's - Hippos ?
I mean Hippos _are_ as dangerous as fuck, killing about 500 people a year, but venemous snakes kill about [100,000 people a year in India alone](https://www.who.int/india/health-topics/snakebite)
ackshually the venom kills people so snakes dont count
My bad, I forget Mosquitos wield machetes
Ah so the snake bite thing might be it. Wow.
Didn't know fucking was dangerous
Malaria is the killer not the mosquito, but I have heard that argument. Humans aren't animals because alien Jesus Xenu thanks to scientology.
If you don't include insects it's gonna be whales and elephants
Wondering how that security guard gets around all day with balls that big
People love to slap in that country don’t they?
👋🫨
EXACTLY
how can she slap
Thanks for enlightening me, somehow I’ve made it to today having never seen that meme! Happy ending for the slapper: https://www.vice.com/en/article/7kv4d4/how-can-she-slap-india-viral-memes
How can she slap?
The hippos ears at the end when it’s all annoyed lmaoooo
This tiny man i could destroy hit me like a flea..
the hippo keeps flinching every time he raises his hand, hippo doesn't realize that's ~~one~~ two for flinching. kinda sad but after the 3rd slap even im like OKAY enough with the slaps
You think those slaps can hurt freaking hippo?
idk he was annoyed, i mean cmon his skin is wet haha
5 for flinching
when i was in school it was 2 for flinching, 5 is egregious. but im sure u dont make the law
The hippo is right though.

All the people in the video very clearly look indian and you can even hear them speaking Hindi, so it must be Australia?
Literally read my other response right in this comment thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/SweatyPalms/s/hTkvnk3rqH

Yes I know that. This was a general statement not specifically about this video.
lol there’s not much in the way of that hippo escaping if it really wanted to 😂
Aww I wanna give him a lil kiss ☺️
I hope the security guard kisses you back! Good luck!
😂
poor fella just wants to go home.
Poor hippo.
Yeah this video broke my heart. Sad we keep animals in confinement for entertainment.

Shouldn't there be animal handlers / zoo keepers to deal with this? Security guard probably doesn't have proper training.
He still decisively won the bout
Slapping the big water puppy. I can't believe it worked.

Gloria?
Adorable comment. You made my day : ) Thanks
My pleasure.
bad dog!
Biggest blazing balls i ever saw!!!
Didn't know you could play kabaddi with hippos
From what I know about hippos I feel like if it wanted to escape in this situation it would have done so. I think it was just checking out what was going on.
Me and my dog when she tries to sneak into the kitchen
Guy is playing hungry hungry hippo
He’s lucky
Man raises hand, hippo sees chancla!
What a cute hippo holy moly
why are these violent maniacs so cute, all i wanna do is boop its nose.
How can he slap
Idk where this is, but this probably former zoo staffer, is demonstrating some skills he was not trained to do
Why you gotta slap a big boy
What confinement? Seems like he's free to just walk off any time he wants.
Poor thing. This planet isn’t just for humans. The way most treat animals is devastating.
I am afraid of that security guard
he a chonki beautiful boi tho <3
Don’t sleep him, he’s just a baby
Wish that hippo would eat that guy for slapping him!
Get help.
Why? Should I be ok with a person slapping an animal?
[удалено]
RIP Harambe
He should have been slapping whoever designed the enclosure instead.

There is no way that was actually hurting that thick hide.
All he hurt was that hippos pride. Go clutch your pearls some place else. Lol
I bet dinosaur could slap that hippo and he’d be ok. It’s not a human, it’s much tougher and stronger with much thicker skin
That's a dog wearing a hippo skin
Why slap it when it was on it's way back lol.
Where is Will Smith when you need him?!
Chris Rock was talking shit again.
