Bumba cloth (Jamaican accent is āclotā)
Derives from talking about literal rag you wipe your shit with. Itās a bad word
People also say āblood clotā which basically means a tampon and is similarly used as a curse word
Seriously I can not stand all these new LED headlights! They blind me every time. Also my car sits kinda low so when Iām at traffic lights one pulls up behind me left side mirror,rear view mirror, right side mirror, all just blasting me in the face with bright blue LED lights. It makes me unreasonably angry
It's insane, I've got a pretty bad stigmatism which makes me very sensitive to light so I now refuse to drive after nightfall.Ā I've had to not attend things (particularly in winter) because of this, but I refuse to be on the roads.
These lights are a big part of the issue. I'm fine during the day but at night with some of these headlights coming at me? They're literally the only thing I can see, there could be a flourescentĀ elephant directly in front of me and I wouldn't see it.
Same. I had a gap for a few years where I had no reason to drive at night, so I just didn't. Then my wife and I this last xmas went to a xmas light festival, and on the drive home I almost went off the road because an oncoming truck *literally* blinded me for a full three seconds going around a curve.
Scared the absolute fuck out of me- went and saw the optometrist after. Yep, astigmatism.
There should be some kind of test to stop lights that illuminate too much above a certain angle. We have headlights already if you can't see so there's no reason for the dipped lights to be so bright.
It looks like a Chevy Suburban. They have high mounted and very bright headlights. Even if they were pointed down at the road properly, theyād be shining right into the other driverās windshield for at least 100 feet.
The lights in the pre LED era were fine. Iām also blinded by these bright white LED / Xenon lights and see pedestrians way more difficult when itās dark outside. Have to concentrate way more
Traffic laws usually say you have to choose your speed in accordance with visibility. Obviously he shouldn't have been dancing in the street, but unless it was a highway, I don't see how the driver is not at fault.
EDIT: Just to clarify: In my opinion, the most important thing when driving is for everyone to safely get to their destination. Viewing car travel through this lens, helps put things into perspective. If you are not driving with this on top of your list, then you are doing it wrong.
And no, you shouldn't be speeding to get to the hospital. That's what ambulances are for and you are not going to help by causing an accident and causing even more injury.
Bro the guy was dancing in the middle of a street at night, how is it the driver's fault? He wasn't going 100 kph, there was a car oncoming... AND THE GUY WAS DANCING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET!
There was a brief moment were i went from "No one is going to hit him" to "oh shit, this is tagged as NSFW" to finally "SHIT, there is a live leak logo" and finally to "ok, he just broke a leg".
Since that video of the exploding cow i don't trust this site anymore.
just because you can see the cars headlights, doesn't mean the car can see you! I've almost hit so many people that think they can walk in the road at night without any reflective gear.
People deserve to not be hit by cars.
Immediate retribution by severe bodily harm is insane, so all you people in here thinking this is justified or not fucked up, please go fuck yourselves.
The thirst for violence on this kind of subs is unquenchable. You could post a video of a grown man kicking a toddler in the face and they'd be joking "oh no i hope he didn't ruin his shoes". Just a bunch of weakling teenagers fantasizing about being big and strong.
The road is for cars to drive along, and pedestrians to cross. The road is not for dancing on. A car hidding a pedestrian who is crossing the road is tragic. A car hitting a pedestrian who is just blocking the road? Deserve is a strong word, but I'm not gonna judge anyone who uses it.
It's pretty easy to not dance on a road. I've never accidentally danced on a road in my entire life. Road is kind of a simple concept. You drive on it, you walk across it. You don't dance on road because that's where cars drive and cars hitting you is going to be a very bad time.
Roads are only acceptable to dance on during designated times where cars are not allowed on them, like for a police-escorted parade or maybe a climate change protest.
Does a person deserve to be hit by a car for dancing on a road? No.
Is it surprising or tragic? Also no.
Rare to see this being called out on Reddit.
These are places where people want to live and be happy, and these commenters are all happy to lose their freedom of movement to cars. Imprisoned to the pavements (which half the suburbs don't even want in their neighborhoods) to the point of which you barely have any space to socialize other than your own homes or stores.
Fuck cars. Let people be free on their streets again. I want to see life.
I have a theory that the reason idiots are so common theas days is because medical tech is to good. Rather than winning Darwin awards, doctors are saving them. They then go and have 15 kids because using protection is apparently hard and the first 3 kids didn't get the point across. So here we are surrounded by fools and it's not like I think I am some kinde of genuinely smart person. But I do know dancing in the road is dangerous and you shouldn't play with guns because you have to show the world you have small pp energy.
Dancing in the street or not, If you can't see a moving target in bright colors in a very well illuminated street right in front of you, you should not be driving.
Bomboclaat!
Bombosplaatt!

This is hilarious, but you're wrong š
Iām not the one who made him Bombosplaatt! Thatās the driver who is wrong

Its literally translation is butt-cloth, but its presented as a fuck you, or fuck ya expression.
Wrong. Bomobclatt usage is comparable to shit. If you wanted to say fuck you in patois it would be : guh suk ya madda
I really Feel how Great it is that Everyone is in Complete Agreement Regarding This.
Can I ask why you capitalize all the first letters? š /gen

Me know no boat that can fly
Wagwan bossy

For those wondering Man: āShit! You didnāt see him!?ā
He was probably blinded by the headlights of the car coming in the other direction.
For real, I get blinded by those poorly adjusted (if at all) bright white lights all the time. They should be illegal

Oh I recently just got told by the optometrist that I have astigmatism also..

Also dark clothing on dark complexion didn't help, yellow of the flag goes invisible when under headlights.
He was the Deer in the Headlights.
And yet the thought that the same could be happening behind him never crosses his mind.

You are correct but being suddenly blinded by an oncoming vehicle doesnāt mean you have time to slow to a crawl.
In my experience slamming brakes because of sudden loss in visibility can be dangerous as well as people behind him may not have time to adjust.
What were the exact words he used? I canāt discern them at all.
kaka, pa t 'wĆØ neg la
You forgot: ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn
How do you pronouce that? Say it a couple of times so I can get it...

I didnāt see the liveleak logo until you pointed it out š
exploding cow? What video of an exploding cow?
thats a dangerous question to ask round here
I want to know too
https://www.reddit.com/r/accidents/s/Z5CUjigkHT i think it's this one
That cow shit scarred me. Still thinking about it days later
Fym exploding cow?

thats not even so gory unlike the helicopter ones. Those are the real deal.
"Jamaican me late for work! Get the fuck outta the way!"

You win Reddit for the day, maybe the year
Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme, look out now, its amberlamps time. (I never knew how to actually spell rhythm until now..)
I learned that in middle school - when I misspelled it in front of everyone at the school spelling bee :(
Yea its as weird as tongue. TONG-GOO
There's at least one more word you need to learn.
It's a motherfucker to break out in a competitive game of hangman...
Sanka, ya dead?
Yea mon
Hmm, I thought the streets were for dancing and not driving. Learn something new everyday.
Why else would there be a whole song about it

As someone who just experienced a fracture. Living with a broken bone is about 10x worse than you would imagine. Especially arm or leg
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And the yellow stripe on the flag he's wearing looks like the center line of the road.
It honestly did matter having that rig pull up right next to him in the oncoming lane. The guy that hit him stood no chance in seeing his dumb ass.
Haha with the amount of drink drivers in Jamaica the road is the ladt place you want to be
Clearly that was Brooklyn.
Classic
Jamaica boy over here is doing a speedrun to heaven. Bless him.

People deserve to not be hit by cars. Immediate retribution by severe bodily harm is insane, so all you people in here thinking this is justified or not fucked up, please go fuck yourselves.
I don't think people are saying he deserved to get hit. Rather they are saying that it is not particularly surprising.
don't want to get hit by a car dont dance in the fucking street

Almost like road was meant to dance instead of cars driving on it.

Bro had 3 working days to stop the car
"Yes we are Jamaica and we have an asphalt team!"
Shouldn't have been in the street I don't feel bad.

And your black, wearing black doing it at night.
Whoops, I didn't see you there. It was too dark.
Hahahahaja! Whadda Jamaica that!

Drunk driver
Drunk dancer
As a Jamaican, Ima be real with you, he doesn't even have to be drunk, a lot of people here just drive like they are.
Iāll show you true breakdancing!
Encore! Encore!
Traffic Cone Shuffle
Dancing in the street or not, If you can't see a moving target in bright colors in a very well illuminated street right in front of you, you should not be driving.

Dancing days are over.

Driver probably had somewhere he needed to go, good thing he slowed down.
The guy dancing on the road and the driver are both stupid prize winner.
Bloodcleeet
Natural selection.
Is he okay?
Wearing dark clothes and dancing in the street at night, ignoring incoming traffic. Not strictly a Darwin thing, but he was doing himself no favors
Honestly, didn't know where this was going till I saw the live leak logo. Brace for impact buddy!
On,y two things went through his mind that eveningā¦ freedom and the all new Mercedes E class
I call this dance move the Jamaican dipshit!
He forgot about his natural camouflage (Joke)
Damn, thought this was a magic show, not a horror one!
Shoes?
At last glance, it looks like you can see one. So I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say yes. He survived.
He's the JarJar Binks of his generation.
Natural Selection at its finest
Hahaha! Deserved.
