It's incredible how many people waste time walking in many situations where you could just fall.

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 36 points 1 year ago

This should be in one of those grindset tip videos.

Life hack: never walk when you can use gravity to get there faster.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That looks potentially survivable. Where do I sign?

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 22 points 1 year ago

Well, first on these twelve waivers.

[–] teft@startrek.website 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imagine that hike back up after a full day of swimming and beach fun. I'd be sleeping at the bottom and attempting it in the morning.

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 19 points 1 year ago

Or after a few beach drinks

When you walking down the steps and the LiveLeak logo appears

[–] Geriatrickid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

"Pretty sure if I move down those treacherous stairs fast enough I'll outrun this logo"

[–] awesome_person@lemm.ee 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

drop some water on there and turn it into a water slide

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

String a dozen slipe-n-slides together and you're good

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 11 points 1 year ago

This is good advice in many areas of life

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anyone else try to use a mattress to go down stairs? It would never work as well as it felt like it should. Darn friction and carpeted houses from the 90s.

[–] violetraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, but then you had those stairs that weren't and some body was creating a hole in drywall

If anyone’s wondering where this is, it’s the top of Jacob’s Ladder in Jamestown, St Helena.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's also somehow located in the middle of the Amazon river, already flooded, and selling for $500k USD.

[–] TunaCowboy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Damn, that's a pretty good deal, got a link?

[–] autokludge@programming.dev 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

5 minutes to the beach, 20 minutes from the beach. That's a serious trek.

Tony hawk's Pro skater 2 level design be like:

Achievement: Bluntside the Beach Steps

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The cliff is sloping but it’s fine, just turn into a goldfish halfway through. You’ll make it. We’re gods.

Imagine carrying your groceries from Costco... it's going to take a couple of trips honey.

[–] Goodtoknow@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Instead of bulk buying from Costco, if possible support a locally ownedgrocery store and make smaller walkable/bikeable trips, not only better environmentally but better for your local economy (and possibly healthier)

Also WinCo sells bulk foods and is majority employee owned

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

I love WinCo!

I read this article today https://time.com/6307359/government-ftc-walmart-prices/

While I don't think a lot of people can afford the higher prices of locally owned grocery stores, I do think that those who can should try. At least until there's more antitrust enforcement.

Especially if they don't give you boxes...

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

That calls for a sick skateboarding trick...

From the Jackass crew. sicko-wistful

[–] 30isthenew29@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

8 seconds to get in the water!

[–] radioactiveradio@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does the dragon warrior get chosen there?

I need to ask you to stop that. That... shouting...

[–] Thedogspaw@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

Falling nature's elevator

[–] Anamana@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Like in the GameCube Sonic games?

[–] kersk@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

RIP to any unfortunate door dashers

[–] HubertManne@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

House I grew up in had stairs up to the porch that was like 6ft up/down distance. Would not recommend. Especially in places were ice and snow are a thing.

[–] Hellstormy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

This needs a water slide besides it!

[–] Donger@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Let me get my soap shoes real quick.

That's the staircase John Wick fell down in JW4. Lol.

If you grind down that you get the top score. A whole game of Tony Hawks HORSE worth. Just remember to wear a helmet, don't want to get hurt

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But remember to ollie a few times on the way down for the multiplier

[–] Batman@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

It's a little risky but for double the points you'd be a fool not to

[–] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

This is every hotel listing in Gran Canaria lol
