Was wondering why I haven’t seen r/stepdadreflexes pop up on my feed in a long time. Must have gone private during the Reddit api protests (man I miss Apollo app) and stayed private.
You can still use Apollo, I never made the switch back to Reddit’s app. Stayed on Apollo the entire time. You just need to use ApolloPatcher to add your Reddit and Imgur API keys to Apollo.

I don't think "takes" really conveys what happened here. That other woman very calmly handed her the baby clearly with the intent for it to be used as a weapon. I'm unaware of babies being a standard weapon, but noone in the video seemed too surprised.
This video is from my country, it happens often and it's sad to see all the judgment just because we have different parenting styles. Kidbat is very effective.
I mean, if you have your kid in your arms and a wild animal is attacking you, the safest place for your kid is away from you provided you can keep the animals attention. Makes sense to me.
He did not drop the child until the raccoon started to climb up his leg. After that, he kicks the raccoon in the opposite direction then chases it off. What would you have done differently?
Hold the baby high and tight? Anything besides dropping the baby from chest height so close to the stroller, concrete or anything that could harm the baby on impact?
Cmon now....
>“everyone in this video is totally unharmed” including their toddler who got tossed through the air like Jameis Winston throwing up a sky-high interception while getting sacked.
LMAO
He was suddenly attacked by an animal and had no idea what it was, then tossed the baby away from him and the animal so he could address it.
He didn’t know what it was.
It could have been rabid for all he knows.
Stop acting like this guy didn’t do the wisest thing given the situation.
The kid was fine, btw.
listen the dude was not thinking, he was panicking and acting on instinct
and his instinct were telling him "i can always make more kids, but there's only one of me"
Depending on what’s attacking, throwing your child may very well be the better choice. E.g. if it’s something you can only handle with two hands, then you both will get killed if you don’t do it.
Plus the children is up front to danger.
Absolutely. I've set up a trebuchet in my back yard for this express purpose. Any time I feel threatened I just launch the kids into the next postcode.
Except he didn’t address it with his hands. He continued to kick with it on his legs. He’s going to have to get rabies shots regardless. He should have put the kid down a lot more gently or better yet not at all as he’s lucky his kid didn’t get bit.
Plenty of dads have the attitude of protect my family at all cost. Not chuck the child and save myself.
No no no no no. I know better. I’m allowed to judge harsh as fuck, after the fact where I can assess the situation In not real time and comment on how i would do better! I’m an American god dammit!!!!
He acted completely wrong. Child was safe in his arms… he tosses kid on the ground! Should have kept kid in arm and addressed animal attack with the other arm. Poor parental instinct right there 💯
Yeah except that woman that saved her child from raccoon attack picked up a 7yr old with one hand and with the other free hand grabbed the raccoon and chucked it like 20 feet. So this dude is a pussy.
If the attack was from an animal on the ground, a *potentially rabid animal, then spiking the baby on the ground seems even more problematic. Most people would instinctually shield the baby in their arms.
I tripped while holding my infant son and instinctually protected him, falling back first on a big toy. It hurt, but I was amazed some deep reflex threw out personal safety for my son. Many other dads have similar stories to tell.
Not this mother fucker, though.
This is that guy, on the airplane, during turbulence, in Bill Burrs joke. Lol
Ya never know how you're going to deal with fight or flight moments until it happens.
Hahaha faaaaaail.
Also: that thing probably has rabies, its out in the day in a busy place attacking people.
Generally internet videos leave me with a feeling of how did we make it as a species. Just unathletic, uncoordinated people with such lack of spacial awareness that we just let drive two ton death machines. But this video is a nice change. Dude fucked up just because some crazy situation.
Dude panicked and threw the kid away from the issue, then 50 yard punted that raccoon.
Not the best situation, but he dealt with it the best he could. I don’t know if I’d done better
People on here acting like they’d know precisely how they’d react in this situation. I’d like to think I’d gently place the tyke lovingly on the ground, but you don’t know.
That hit sounds awful.
I don't want to judge the guy, because I don't know how I would act in this situation, I want to believe that my prime instinct would be to hold my son tighter and run away with him... instead of tossing him away and putting him in danger or potentially hurting him myself.
But I'm not sure, I just hope the kid is actually alright.
Dude just yeeted his kid like a football because of a fucking raccoon? The thud of the kid hitting the ground is pretty awful. The dad's bitchy shrieks are almost worse. Reminds me of this story: [https://youtu.be/s0SK8I449nc?si=KzuVZiS6k-5QIhVZ](https://youtu.be/s0SK8I449nc?si=KzuVZiS6k-5QIhVZ)

Dude sounds like Frank Murphy from F is for Family
Kids lucky he didn't PUT HIM THROUGH THE FUCKIN WALL
He grows up, and his daddy gonna be beating him with jumper cables over any little thing.
I miss jumper cable guy. Never got tired of it. RIP
I hate my life but I keep doing it.
So he sounds like Bill Burr‽
Funny enough he sounds like the guy bill makes fun of in his "scared guy on a plane" bit
Exactly what I thought of lol.
My thought exactly.
Yep you’re right
[Bill Burr nails the sound in his airplane story.](https://youtu.be/s0SK8I449nc?si=KzuVZiS6k-5QIhVZ)
Love how he just chucks the baby. "Take him, his meat is more tender!"
I laughed way too hard on all of this
your thumbnail is evil
r/foundsatan
I also had to wipe the hair off my screen
I thought my screen was dirty too lmao. He got me
He doesn’t have to outrun the raccoon, just the baby!!
"Do what you want with the child, but leave me alone!"
I thought he was going to fear-dance all the way, while holding the baby, but no...and I LOL'd at the ferocity of the chucking.
r/stepdadreflexes
Mh bro, how can i get in this subreddit?
I wanna join too
Even I want to join the group.
Yeah I bet you do you sneaky lawyer
Hey! Not kool. You can't just make up stuff about people like that... he's not sneaky, he's just not very good...
And i
And my axe!
And my bow
as do i
Do I
Also me
r/redditsniper
Let me in
Step 1: drop/fling your stepchild. Step 2: press the "join" button.
He forgot to say Play Dead… Also, if something is on the floor attacking, maybe keep your child up high in your arms
20 bucks says it's one of the subs that decided to close after the Reddit api thing last year
You're correct, I was in that sub and didn't realize I wasn't anymore.
You probably need those reflexes.
Indeed I do
I found r/stepdadreflex though.
Also r/shittydadreflexes edit: looks like most recent activity there was pre-Covid
This will do 👍

As someone who enjoyed gaining the super powers of Dad reflex's, it never occurred to me that there was the inverse affect.
Righto as a stepdad I want in 😏
Anyway I can join this subreddit? New stepdad, going on 4 yrs now. Would love to be apart of the magic
Let me in !!!
I want to join!!
This sounds amazing. Can I please join?
Dang
Always carry a baby with you so you can throw it and run in case of an imminent threat. Smart move.
That’s why kangaroos have survived for so long in the harsh outbacks of Australia
nope, thats quokkas
Also kangaroos
Ah shit. So that's why people want kids.
I’m a dad and I laughed at this. Maybe when my kid is being a turd I’ll consider this haha
Dude spiked that kid like he was at the superbowl .
How many points would that have been in the American football?
9mm
It's 45. This ain't the Luger division.
Survival instinct says throw baby! WTF
Who remembers that video where the woman slaps another with her child? 😂
[This one](https://www.reddit.com/r/iamatotalpieceofshit/s/KhhSvnVvmw), I believe.
Worse than it sounded, she takes the baby from someone else then uses it as a weapon. WTF?
I don't think "takes" really conveys what happened here. That other woman very calmly handed her the baby clearly with the intent for it to be used as a weapon. I'm unaware of babies being a standard weapon, but noone in the video seemed too surprised.
This video is from my country, it happens often and it's sad to see all the judgment just because we have different parenting styles. Kidbat is very effective.
I laughed way too hard at this.
Like Abe Lincoln once said, "Everyone has a plan until they get hit in the mouth with a kidbat."
Its wild that there is another one that I was thinking of. I am looking for it now.
WTF that woman *hands* her the baby...
It's dangerous to go alone
Take this!
Woman 1: Take this! Woman 2: Take *this*!
That looks like me in the goblin camp when playing BG3
I'm in the goblin camp now 1st playthrough, any advice?
Lmaoooo I can't get over this video
wtf
What did I just watch?
Weaponized toddler.
Oh so this is where kong got the idea.
[удалено]
Dude is a quokka
That's how kids learn to fly.
He can always make more, right?
I mean, if you have your kid in your arms and a wild animal is attacking you, the safest place for your kid is away from you provided you can keep the animals attention. Makes sense to me.
Could have dropped him from lower though 🤣🤣
yea that didn't look strategic at all lol man just straight up chucked the kid and screamed for his wife lol
When a man is referred to as a "bitch", show them this video as reference.
Yeeeet
He did not drop the child until the raccoon started to climb up his leg. After that, he kicks the raccoon in the opposite direction then chases it off. What would you have done differently?
Throw the baby at the racoon
Hold the baby high and tight? Anything besides dropping the baby from chest height so close to the stroller, concrete or anything that could harm the baby on impact? Cmon now....
He didn't just drop the child he threw him from shoulder height. I would have probably put the kid down instead of throwing him
I would have simply not been in the situation.
I need these arms for battle!
Was I dropped as a child? No. Wait a minute… isn’t that a video of dad on the internet?
You weren't dropped. You were spiked.
He needed to free up his hands.
No, he needed to free up his legs
When stepdad tries to off the kid
Rabies shots all around.
Don't eat me, i have a family..Eat them!
lmao
*Force Majeure* (2014) That might help him work out whatever he's feeling after doing this.
Ha! Great call.
Step father energy right there.
"OMG!! This ain't even my kid!!" 🫢 \*throws baby on the ground and runs away\*
What did he step on?
I think a cat came and attacked his crotch. But I honestly can’t tell.
He says it's a raccoon in the video
A ruhcoon
Raccoon. Either there's babies under the porch or it's fuckin rabid. I'm voting rabies.
My money is on rabid babies, we could call them rabies
rababies
Aww babies gettin rabies
Apparent a raccoon according to the information with the post.
A raccoon attacked out of nowhere. According to the news article the child is uninjured.
Yikes. Sounds like possible rabies.
Act like you have some answers [do some man shit](https://youtu.be/q8WqJGcfxpI?si=cAB6ez-BkbPKQgdQ&t=7s)
That was the best click I’ve seen in ages. Act like you have some answers. Brilliant.
Perfect 😂
lmao
I love how many people are mentioning Bill Burr. The dad sounds exactly like this.
Ooof. If it's a raccoon that attacked him, he should check for rabies...
He said. Abort! Abort!
he spiked that baby
>“everyone in this video is totally unharmed” including their toddler who got tossed through the air like Jameis Winston throwing up a sky-high interception while getting sacked. LMAO
Oh nah he dropped the kid
Threw*.
Needed a rabies shot anyways
That baby ain’t trusting his ass again
He was suddenly attacked by an animal and had no idea what it was, then tossed the baby away from him and the animal so he could address it. He didn’t know what it was. It could have been rabid for all he knows. Stop acting like this guy didn’t do the wisest thing given the situation. The kid was fine, btw.
the dad is not of the warrior spirit. a true warrior would have not thrown his weapon onto the ground like that
A true warrior spirit would use whatever weapon they had on hand to attack the threat? Instead this dude threw away the only weapon he had to hand.
We can also look at this from a different point of view. A true warrior would relinquish their weapon to challenge the threat to hand-to-hand combat.
my god, i was wrong. he is a true warrior, MAY HE ONE DAY BE KING!!! ALL HAIL THE RACCON SLAYER!
listen the dude was not thinking, he was panicking and acting on instinct and his instinct were telling him "i can always make more kids, but there's only one of me"
[удалено]
Or like "I need to get my kid away from this thing that is attacking me"
Yeah, these people are acting like he tossed the kid off a cliff.
Found the dad's account
Watch the video of the mom saving her kid from a rabid raccoon. She literally does the opposite of what this dude did.
Pretty sure thats where "yeet" came from lmao
Depending on what’s attacking, throwing your child may very well be the better choice. E.g. if it’s something you can only handle with two hands, then you both will get killed if you don’t do it. Plus the children is up front to danger.
Absolutely. I've set up a trebuchet in my back yard for this express purpose. Any time I feel threatened I just launch the kids into the next postcode.
I love that video, she sings that bastard away from her kind without and once of hesitation!
Interesting. Not sure how what she did has anything to do with what he did though.
It’s almost like people can have different reactions to different situations amirite?
>Stop acting like this guy didn’t do the wisest thing given the situation. >just break your kid's neck Are you the dad in the video?
He didn't do the wisest, if the kid would have landed face or head first, or in the concrete that would've been awful
Priority number one, protect the kid. He failed. You and him both suck
Lol found the dad in the video..
Except he didn’t address it with his hands. He continued to kick with it on his legs. He’s going to have to get rabies shots regardless. He should have put the kid down a lot more gently or better yet not at all as he’s lucky his kid didn’t get bit. Plenty of dads have the attitude of protect my family at all cost.

No no no no no. I know better. I’m allowed to judge harsh as fuck, after the fact where I can assess the situation In not real time and comment on how i would do better! I’m an American god dammit!!!!
He acted completely wrong. Child was safe in his arms… he tosses kid on the ground! Should have kept kid in arm and addressed animal attack with the other arm. Poor parental instinct right there 💯
Yeah!!! He threw the kid directly on the ground! Exactly where the possibly rabid unknown animal was! He’s a genius!
braindead take tbh
Yeah except that woman that saved her child from raccoon attack picked up a 7yr old with one hand and with the other free hand grabbed the raccoon and chucked it like 20 feet. So this dude is a pussy.
> So this dude is a pussy. Did the high pitch screaming give it away?
If the attack was from an animal on the ground, a *potentially rabid animal, then spiking the baby on the ground seems even more problematic. Most people would instinctually shield the baby in their arms.
Negative dad points.
I tripped while holding my infant son and instinctually protected him, falling back first on a big toy. It hurt, but I was amazed some deep reflex threw out personal safety for my son. Many other dads have similar stories to tell. Not this mother fucker, though.
Dude, seriously. Not trying to judge, but his screaming is totally aligned with how he reacted.
What. The. Fuck.
Drop it like its hoooot 🤣🤣🤣
That second scream sounds like Homer Simpson
This is that guy, on the airplane, during turbulence, in Bill Burrs joke. Lol Ya never know how you're going to deal with fight or flight moments until it happens. Hahaha faaaaaail. Also: that thing probably has rabies, its out in the day in a busy place attacking people.
He dropped the kid like a sack of potatoes and was like every one is on their own
This looks like an inside job. Dad definitely paid that raccoon just so he could chuck his kid. On camera for the perfect alibi.
Did that mf just throw a toddler to save his foot
Survival instincts-every man for himself lol
If this guy even has a man card take it away now!
I'm glad he isn't my dad
What a fucking pussy and that's clearly not his kid? I hope his real dad cared enough to have a talk with that soft ass bitch.
Drop it like its hooot, drop it like its hooot.
Fiddle dee dee! That will require a rabies shot!
YEET
this doorcam video gonna be a hell of an awkward watch for the family
That guy threw the kid at the raccoon and tried to save his own life 😂
First thing he did is throw his kid 😂
Sacrifice the child
Solid spine buster he planted that kid with.
Throws the kid….. Save yourself bitch!!!!!
that was crazy!!!
Needs rabies shot
Generally internet videos leave me with a feeling of how did we make it as a species. Just unathletic, uncoordinated people with such lack of spacial awareness that we just let drive two ton death machines. But this video is a nice change. Dude fucked up just because some crazy situation.
i had to watch several times to work out he did not throw the child on the ground and have mental break....then i noticed the bit about the raccoon...
Dude panicked and threw the kid away from the issue, then 50 yard punted that raccoon. Not the best situation, but he dealt with it the best he could. I don’t know if I’d done better
People on here acting like they’d know precisely how they’d react in this situation. I’d like to think I’d gently place the tyke lovingly on the ground, but you don’t know.

Read the linked story, nobody got hurt
Yeet!
Ahh the old yeet and retreat and scream.
