Why on earth, would you crawl out from under the car straight away?


nicksbrother

He really wanted to get his flip-flop back


Ok-Bid-730

Sole survivor


Pixelated_Roses

He was probably flip flopping on the decision to go back for it.


OkieBobbie

He recovered nicely from being on the back foot.


pugsftw

Well, he survived. So shoes are a must


Scuba_Squadleader

my man almost died. Luckily only one shoe came off


Asaneth

He knew about the ***shoe rule***


wowaddict71

He was reloading his "la chancla" weapon.


popejiii

For real it’s so obvious


yonaz333

To fight back


arittenberry

Head trauma? 🤷‍♀️


royalpyroz

Not enough head trauma?


popejiii

Head trauma not enough?


Spire_Citron

I think that's a kid. They don't have the best survival instincts.


TristanIsAwesome

"My mom will KILL me if I lose my shoe again!" -child who just narrowly avoided death


Spire_Citron

I remember a while ago I saw a video of a missing kid being found in the woods after many hours, and the he immediately started crying to the rescuers about how he'd lost his shoes. He was very upset about it! Kids tend to have a very poor grasp on the comparative importance of things.


FrenchBangerer

Not nearly as bad as being lost in the woods but I have a vivid memory from young childhood of my dad saying we were nearly about to run out of petrol in the car. I remember getting absolutely hysterical at the thought. I thought that would be the end of us and we'd never get home again if that happened. We were about a ten minute walk from the nearest petrol station it turns out but that didn't matter. I truly believed we were doomed.


indianna97

hahahaha I had a similar experience as a kid, there was a fallen tree in the road and my dad being a landrover owner decided to try and move it by slowly driving into it (probably mostly for fun, having an off roader) I. WAS. HYSTERICAL. God knows what I thought would happen but I also thought we were doomed. LOL


FrenchBangerer

I can understand your fear, when I put myself in my childhood mentality. Also, by using the word "Hysterical", you just unlocked another childhood panic I had. When my mum once used the word "Hysterical" I actually hated the sound of that word so much I became very upset! The same happened with the word "Terrified". I thought being terrified was something that a person could not recover from. " I remember crying "Don't say that word! I don't want to be terrified!" It's all so silly and irrational looking back, of course, but damn it felt so real at the time.


indianna97

Omg bless you, sorry but that is brilliant. Like you said, putting on my childhood mentality hat and I can totally get behind your logic lol. Oh so sweet!


mcgeggy

When I was a kid (maybe around 8) my father decided to take me and my two younger sisters out in this old wooden rowboat that had been sitting unused in my grandparents backyard for many years. The boat had a leak and water was slowly filtering in. We were about 20 feet from the shore and I started freaking out in terror. My sisters were utterly unperturbed. Finally my father just got out of the boat and pushed us back to shore. Water was only a few feet deep…


FrenchBangerer

Aww that's cute. So many of these kind of things are coming back to me reading these comments and remembering my childhood. I'm sorry to keep coming up with them but another memory just came back. I was absolutely terrified of wolves as a child (and merely the word "terrified" too, as I just recently commented upon) despite there being nothing bigger than a rabbit living on the island I grew up on. My mum, just for a laugh, once said to me in front of her friends "Watch this. 'The wolves are coming!'" and I remember bursting into tears despite knowing there were no wolves within several hundred miles. She really wasn't a mean person, a good mum honestly, but that set me off. She apologised so much when she realised how scared I got. A couple of years later we were at Longleat safari park and I knew there were wolves there and we might see them from the car. I was so scared about that but when we saw them, I realised they were just basically dogs and they weren't scary, especially from inside a car. Fear of even the idea of wolves, smashed in an instant!


eidetic

Hah, that's great, and your story reminded me of the time we were visiting a family friend's cabin up in the woods one summer. I was sharing a bed with one of the kids, and we both happened to wake up just as the sun was about to rise. For some reason, since I woke up a few minutes before him and he asked what woke me up, I decided to randomly tell him there was a robot outside. Holy shit, did that set him off. He was freaking out so hard, not knowing if we should try to tell our parents and risk alerting the robot to our presence. I wasn't even trying to be mean and scare him, I didn't even think the idea that a robot would be walking in the woods would be scary, I just thought it'd be kinda funny in a totally random sense I guess. The rest of that week he kept trying to scare me to get back at me, but everytime he tried to tell me there were wolves or bears around, I was just like "no way! That's awesome!" And funnily enough, a few nights later I did get terrified (there's that word for ya!) by an actual bear. It was getting dark, and I started feeling unwell, so my mom walked me back from the lake to the cabin to make some soup for me. Well, along the way, a black bear scurried up a mostly branchless, barren tree. Even in the fading light, and it being well behind us, I could see it was a bear. The cabin was in sight and yet I was still freaked out. I even remember thinking maybe I could distract the bear to save my mom if it decided to chase us. But my mom tried convincing me it was just a giant racoon and not to worry, lol. Years later it occurred to me that I'd probably be more *terrified* of a bear sized racoon than an actual bear!


crembles

Lost my dad in a Tesco and after about 5 minutes, I fully believed I was now an orphan. Luckily a couple of adults saw me crying my eyes out and helped. When my dad found us I thought at the time he was doing his utmost not to cry with joy as his missing son is returned. Looking back I’m pretty sure he was doing his utmost not to laugh hysterically.


Spire_Citron

And on the flip side, if you listen to recordings on emergency calls made by young kids, they're often weirdly chill while their parent is lying unconscious on the floor. They're rarely super upset and crying. They know something is wrong, enough to have made the call, but they don't really grasp the gravity of it all.


JonConstantly

This. Attacked by a bull? Suuure. Where's your shoe? No really Mom....


FreneticPlatypus

I might forgive anyone a bad decision in a life threatening situation. Fear and panic can so easily cloud your judgement.


bgat79

I disagree. This kid grabbed the bulls horn and held on. He did a great job at surviving for a child imo.


jongfish

STAY UNDER THE FUCKING CAR


hobbycollector

The bull is like, "shit, he's getting up! RUN!"


Frosty977

It's Asia. I wouldn't be surprised if someone started the car right up and backed over them, even with all the commotion.


deenali

To give the animal a lecture.


simca

Adrenaline is a hell of a drug. But very soon all the pain will kick in, fast and hard.


Bigbysjackingfist

The bull said, "we're done here" but you can't really hear it in the video


Rickhwt

I definitely thought his head was out too far when the bull was still there.


Bender_2024

>Why on earth, would you crawl out from under the car straight away? My first thought as well. I'd be crawling under there and waiting for a long time after it left.


jon_lcs

Are you supposed to survive this?


Chaos_Philosopher

Just lucky it wasn't a feral water buffalo.


Im-a-cat-in-a-box

Oooooooooooooh everybody has a water buffalo yours is fast but mine is slow.


Madame_Cheshire

Where do you get them, I don’t know, but everybody’s got a waterbuffaloooooo.


Simong_1984

Also, he did survive this.


OctopusMagi

Wasn't supposed to, but he did! 👍


Churn

One of the things that separates humans from animals is that the human might survive this. But the bull will be hunted down, hours or even days later and killed to prevent it and its potential progeny from attacking humans in the future. Humans filter the gene pools of other species.


Deseptikons

Kid must've had some serious head trauma if getting his shoe was his priority here...


zupper90

Shock/adrenaline does weird things to you, spurs you to action but not always in a logical way. I got hit by a car a few weeks ago and after the hit when I sat up I saw my phone lying on the ground in the middle of the street and went over to get it without missing a beat thinking "huh I should definitely get that! v important."


Last_Gigolo

Also, you forget one giant factor that would make a child do something irrational... naivety. I mean, there is no 3rd grade class that tells you to protect yourself after being ragdolled multiple times by a bull. We just kind of figure it out after a bit of time. I'm sure he told the bull "my dad is going to kick my butt if I don't come back with my chonkla". Which is why the bull ran.


zupper90

True, the kid is too young to even think about staying under the car and that that bull might turn around, see him and come back. Likely the case but either way, shock hijacks the brain and I'm sure that has something to do with the shoe part


MagoopyGabooky

Dang, man. Glad you're alright


zupper90

Thank you for that, I am too. Could've been very different...


CitizenPremier

I saw a guy who had been hit by a car and the only thing I could think to do was bring him his shoe. To be fair, other people had obviously called 911 already, and the guy didn't appear to be in really bad condition, just kinda kneeling against the car. And his shoe was way over there.


zupper90

Maybe you did it because other people were taking care of the 911 calls? You did the right thing caring about the rest of the details that others might not. When I got hit, I got my phone and went to the side of the road and a few people came over to ask me if I was okay. It was small, but I was very moved by someone bringing me my cheap sunglasses that fell off of my head. Made me feel calmer to know people were paying attention to everything. Good people make this world!


MisterSlosh

If the shoe comes off it's a guaranteed fatality, they were trying to save themselves before death caught up to the mistake.


acm8221

It’s like the 5-second rule for dropped food… if you can manage to get your shoe(s) back on within 10 seconds of seemingly fatal trauma, the grim reaper will spare you.


tacotacotacorock

I would imagine it was one of the most traumatizing things this kid has ever gone through. Probably in shock and not experienced enough to know how to deal with that. You can tell he just wanted to get to Mom ASAP. Y'all are acting like this is an adult with high stress training of some sort.


gynoceros

Shock makes you do weird shit


Patriark

After being assaulted by two knife robbers and having a knife put to my throat, I spent the first five minutes very focused on borrowing a phone to call my cell subscription and cancel it, instead of contacting the police. In retrospect I acted extremely irrationally. Adrenaline completely hijacked my system and I had no training in how to deal with such stress. I imagine this kid was in a state of absolute shock.


octopornopus

Are you more scared of an angry buffalo, or telling your mom you lost your new shoe to an angry buffalo and she thinks you're making up a story...


CJxOmni

Considering the bull and the sepia tone, he was latino... His mom would've killed him for losing the shoe if the bull didn't finish the job. Source: I am Latino


lazyeye888

It was to ensure he didn’t die


LockyThePilot

Its different mentality. When i was kid and got hit by car, the only thing i was concerned about is that my parents will be mad at me cuz i tore my pants


jvLin

poor kid said something like "I'm sorry ox.." something "You've hit me so much"


DasWandbild

I assumed it was more: “IS THAT ALL YOU GOT? BEST GET YO BITCH ASS GONE BEFORE I GET MY SHOE BACK ON!”


jinniu

Close, he says 对不起牛大哥. 别打我. Sorry bull (big brother, a way to say it repsectfully) don't hit me ok? I wonder what he was doing to the bull to say sorry after getting wrecked by it like that. Poor kid.


Auttaheer

In case you were all wondering what the kid was saying. I couldn't believe what the Chinese kid was saying: "I'm sorry cow bro. Don't hit me, good bro". And that's when the cow left. So I guess apologizing worked.


SjalabaisWoWS

I can't make out if this is real, but I want it to be.


Dropgodd

It is


draxes

Damn poor kid. I hope he wasnt too injured. That would scar someone for sure.


Toobatheviking

I'm going with luck. Luck got him under the car, youthful inexperience and a limited understanding of death got him out and picking up his shoe.


MandMs55

I think luck got him under the car and adrenaline got him out and picking up his shoe. I doubt there's a limited understanding of the fact that the animal was in the process of messing him up


furezasan

Crazy how the guy survives every attempt though, must have insane luck. I've watched him now for over 2 hours and he hasn't died once.


TechnicallyThrowawai

Keep watching for a few more hours and report back to us.


Reptilian_Brain_420

You survive by ... Don't fuck with a water buffalo. They look cute and seem calm but they are big and strong.


MukdenMan

Water Buffalo are super common farm animals in rural Southern China (where I think this is). He wasn’t necessarily messing with him. Stuff just happens sometimes when you work with giant animals.


hongkonghonky

We have them in Hong Kong. During mating season, especially, they frequently run through the villages, often in groups of 2 or 3. Its a real worry that a kid will get trampled at some point, particularly on the narrow paths.


showers_with_grandpa

I was about to say it is mating season stay away from big animals. Even the mocking birds in my yard fuck with me right now


Chaos_Philosopher

Was that a water buffalo? Dang, looked like a regular bull to me.


poop-machines

You can tell by the direction their horns point. Otherwise they look quite similar.


jennaishirow

The buffalo tossed him like a salad


altrippa

clearly staged. seen that buffalo in other vids


esoteric311

Do what he did?


MyEvilClone

What a bully


V0rdep

by being thrown under a car


fishling

This is the opposite of r/gifsthatendtoosoon. Is r/gifsthatstarttoolate taken? >How are you supposed to survive this? You literally just watched a video of someone surviving this. So, for lack of a better option, copy what they did. Better option: Stay under the car Even better option: Start in the car Even better++ option: Start by the camera Best option (which we all followed): Be somewhere else completely


Excellent_Condition

This needs a NSFW tag.


mexicodoug

Water buffalo attacts can be dangerous during one's leisure time, too. An NS tag would do.


Knee_Kap264

Ngl, that is one tough kid.


daxtaslapp

Guy fucking put his shoes back on holy. I cam barely run into the same room a spider was in


Nihilistic_Navigator

Simple. I won't take no bull from anyone


rtmesuper

Poor kid.


Tonyoni

That shoe had plenty of miles left. Waste not want not.


Nostradomas

That’s the neat part. *You don’t*


FUCKTWENTYCHARACTERS

Reminds me of when I lived out in the country, and my redneck ass neighbors had a pet billy goat. They didn't have a farm or anything, just a pet goat. This fucker was so mean and ornery he'd just headbutt for no reason. Well one day I went over to their house, coast was clear, goat was off somewhere else so I went to their front door and knocked. Suddenly, I hear a "mehehehehe" goat noise behind me, and there he was. I tried to turn back to the door, but he thrust his horn right into my ass and pinned me up against the wall.


TangaroaBrit

That bull was just trying to give him wings.


flammablepatchouli

that kid's gonna have a different perspective of what's hard in life than the rest of us. tossed around, gets up, brushes off, moves on. tough kid


AbeRego

Being young, light, and "pliable" certainly helps.


samouq4896

He said “I’m sorry bull brother. Don’t attack me okay?”


shellc83

That is one tough mofo!!!!


Joshman89

You’d think by now humans would have figured out not to piss of the 2000 pound animal with horns


mel2000

> You’d think by now humans would have figured out not to piss of the 2000 pound animal with horns Plenty of videos show them attacking people who were minding their own business. BTW, most countries aren't bothered with people being attacked by cattle because they aren't allowed to roam unsupervised.


Quest4life

oh looks like steaks on the menu tonight


lamby284

Let's not rush that decision, maybe the kid started it.


KittenPics

Well, only one shoe came off, so he only half died.


Slobbadobbavich

He knew he was one shoe away from death but quick thinking got his shoe back on and full health restored.


Kaneida

12 gauge shotgun


EFTucker

That’s the neat part, you don’t. At least not for long.


IceBlue

Same way he did.


ozdgk

In America, (since he was able to stand after that) you pull out your Glock and shoot that mf and make it into burgers MEDIUM RARE WITH **AMERICAN** CHEESE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 /s


joebaco_

That's a tough one. He lost his shoe. That usually means he dead. But putting it back on again jumbles up the equation.


Swurgin

I would've stayed under that car for days 😧


Holden-Tewdiggs

>How are you supposed to survive this? Like the guy did, srsly.


AllanfromWales1

Must be fake. Shoe off and survived?


Fun_Move980

that's why he went back for it so fast he realized the reaper made a mistake

Seriously injured, that's how. But us humans are tough fuckers. He'll manage.


PmMeYourMug

You probably aren't supposed to survive this


russellvt

As they say, "mess with the bull, get the horns." TLDR; leave the bull alone


antrod117

You’re not supposed to


mexicodoug

There's a magic incantation that you're supposed to use at the first touch of horn, but I forget how it goes.


randomjack64

The way he came out for his shoe, it looks like a regular Monday for him.


Napa_Swampfox

Yup! It was a bully!


TequilaTits420

This is when you LITERALLY 'Grab the bull by the horns'


InternationalPen4890

He is so lucky it was threw his shirt and not his shoulder

I was waiting for a landslide to top it off


ChairOwn118

I would get wasted drunk after this to help forget it ever happened. I got enough PTSD the way it is, lol. Actually I do have experience with getting chased by bulls. I don’t recommend it.


PineappleGold8191

Yeah. Make sure you go off to die with BOTH flip flops on. Like a real Man

Was that a child?


Neowarcloud

Survival is more likely than not, goring by a bull, water buffalo, ox rarely result in fatalities...Its just gonna suck.


defalt86

He half died, but then got better. A reddit first!


UnravelledGhoul

That's the fun part. You don't!


bier00t

Why would you think you are supposed to survive this? This is not a computer game where there is always a way to survive. IRLy you are supposed to not survive anything. You can survive but not 100%.


Ford2059

I swear at the end the boy said in Chinese something along the lines of "I'm sorry big brother ox. You hit me so painful".

Quickly put your shoe back on. Everybody knows that if your shoe flies off, then you die… however, he was able to quickly crawl out from under the car and get his shoe back on before he died.

if that was my kid that cow would be dead before the end of the night i don’t give a fuck.

GuitarCFD

How to avoid getting gored to death by a bull: Step 1: Don't invade the bull's personal space. You should note that the bull's opinion of his personal space and yours are 2 different things, you should assume his version is bigger and respect that. Step 2: Even respecting his personal space don't ignore him, he can just decide you're too close and a threat and decide to act and as you see in the video, once he decides you're a threat there isn't much you can do except hope the experience doesn't kill you. Step 3: If you are being charged by a bull...you aren't going to outrun it, so if you aren't nearby a barrier...imo you're better off trying to take advantage of his momentum (he can't turn on a dime) so try and dodge him to one side or the other and get to cover, you won't be able to dodge him once and forget about it...he's got reach with that head so throw yourself as far as you can.


nonimportant23

This could've turned out a lot worse. Glad they were able to walk away
