That guy watched Prometheus and thought it was a manual.

Did I just see a dude die?

[–] Terevos@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

I hope not.

That said, if you know any details, please share. I think we'll have same 'no visible death' rule as on other platforms.

There were 360 possible directions he could run and he chose the wrong one

Please mark stuff like this NSFW.

[–] Terevos@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

AFAIK there's no NSFW marking for an individual post.

How is this nsfw? Guy's straight up getting looney tuned by a tree, nothing gory or anything.

[–] Mobiuthuselah@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

He's not a cartoon though. As far as we know, it's real video of a person's life ending. For that reason, these types of things are typically marked NSFW whether there's gore or not.

[–] DogMuffins@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 year ago

Woah.

He's like, dead then right?

That sucked.

[–] Infinity187@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If memory serves, guy died.

[–] scrappy_Duncan@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

I don't see how he could have survived. But I hope he did for his sake.
