So I copy and paste the link. Instead of a video I see a page with some girl getting DP'd.

Awesome surprise. ;)

While what they were doing was stupid and mean in the first place, no one deserves death.

I'm starting to think a large part of ATOT were picked on by bullies. Anytime some idiocy results in the physical detriment of another, everyone seems to cheer. Its quite disturbing really.

Oh and saying "darwin" over and over is about as cool as "digressing" on your emo camwhore blog.

Saw this last night while going ot some other web sites. This video is all over hte place apaprently.

I watched it like 10 times to figure out what happened.

1) kid opens door to hit another kid riding bike.
2) Kid riding bike is hit by door.
3) Door recoils shut when kid on bike is hit.
4a) Door bounces off kid in car and opens up again.

Herre's the problem.
4b) Kid in car, continues to hold onto door thoughout the whole process.
4c) Kid in car gets ejected from car head first.
5) Kid does face plant on a car bumper.

I'm guessign the car was going about 10 mph. He could easily have been killed. I'm guessing that's not the case.

Moral of the story: "What comes around, goes around"

Feal free to use this in the OP. It took me a while to disect what happened. Just toss some spoiler tags on the above if you do so.

They were traveling WAY faster than 10 MPH, looks more like 35-45 to me. Especially considering the force of the door and the wind noise. Either way, done. The speed at which the parked car disappeared from frame and looking throught the rear windwhield, passing houses like they are standing still...they were going fast.

And when you try to harm another human being which could potentially be fatal or serious injury especially to a little kid, you get what you deserve. Hell even my girlfriend immediately said - got what he deserved.

Ah now I see it. Well, at least he was too young to have kids, probably, so definitely a big silver lining here.

i think how the kid fell out of car was that the driver probably swirved or jerked the car to the right to avoid getting close w/ the parked car. And when the car goes right suddenly, your body tends to go right relatively speaking. So since the door wasn't shut yet, the kid was thrown out and right into the parked car.
 

i've been trying to figure out if the car was parked or moving.

at the end, when they run back to the car, it has brake lights on and a window down

the car the kid face planted into didn't have the windows down.

are they the same car?

also, when the camera makes the first pan to the back window the car is there and stopped/stopping
the camera pans to the side and quickly to the back again - but the car isn't there!!!

when they run back there, the car is there again...WTF??

Not the same car. The car the moron face planted into looks like a Chevy Celebrity or some other boxy looking 4 sedan. The other car with the brake lights on and window down is a Ford Taurus.

ok, just watched it again. The ford Taurus is actually the car that all the kids were driving in. When the camera man gets out, he spins around and ends up looking at the car he just got out of.

Never underestimate ATOT. This is actually a REPOST from a week or so back. So ATOT > Other Forum.
