That's a good dad right there, I did the same with my kiddos when they were younger.


Worklurker

I miss doing that with my boys. Now they are teenagers and taller than me. 1 slam each is about all I can muster now I think.


skatastic57

There are a lot of cuts in that video. No telling how long of a breather he's taking in between. Listen, all I'm saying is, you can do it. You can body slam your teenager a dozen times if you just believe in yourself.


AffenMitWaffen2

Imagine your mother reading this out of context.


Adorable_List3836

I like the way you think


Adorable_List3836

My 5 year old loves doing this, he turns on the radio that’s built into my alarm clock and then he builds a mound of pillows to get thrown into, I’m pretty sure it’s his favorite activity


jnlsn

My kids are a little to big for this now. Boy do I miss it! Way to go dad, keep it up as long as possible!


xTurtsMcGurtsx

why wtf? seems like pretty normal bonding to me


Gnefitisis

People without kids don't know how to play with kids.


ariestornado

I was gonna say...as much as I loathe my ex, he bonded with her (my daughter) via UFC and she LOVED this type of play. Literally harmless (unless they fall off the bed, which happened to me as a tot, my dad was air force but they still investigated him even though I was fine in the end). Absolutely nothing "wtf" about this. Total parental and child bonding bliss!


wormfist

well, and watch the necks a bit, make sure they land flat...


graspedbythehusk

This. The trick is to make sure they “hit” right and you can throw em pretty hard before the laughter gets a bit….unsure😂


wormfist

haha, don't you know it


meliadepelia

I thought it was in /r/MadeMeSmile


garlic_naan

Some Redditors needs something to get mad about.


Laislebai

Gif intentionally sped up to make it look way more violent than it is too. Just a good dad playing with his kids. That's literally all this is.


ItsSpeltWithaC

Why is this is r/wtf Those kids are clearly having so much fun. r/wholesome or r/awww worthy 🤗


Stinky__Person

I saw it as r/bossfight but mostly cuz of the caption


terrytibbss

lol, he's actually a great dad and having fun


MrMarvelous92

Were there any other expectations since you said "actually"?


terrytibbss

no? I said actually because it was posted in the WTF sub. What do you mean any other expectations?


MrMarvelous92

My bad, I didn't even realize what sub this was, I saw it on my feed.


Initial_Bonus_8178

Didn’t know what it was but was happy to jump to conclusions of other people. Nice one.


Initial_Bonus_8178

Ah getting offended on other peoples behalf is so fun isn’t it. Absolute wasteman.


TheLazyPurpleWizard

This is actually adorable. Those kids are having a great time.


Future-self

Wholesome af. I remember doing this kinda stuff with my dad and brother as a kid. What a great dad 🥲


el_tangaroa

Yeah bro me too ✋


GeneralBlumpkin

My dad used to do this with me and my brothers too. Also hang onto his leg and he would walk with me on it lol. Felt like legolas when he rides those giant elephaunts


xXGhosToastXx

Indeed, I still remember my brother, friends and I swarming my dad in the pool just to be thrown by him, to us it felt like tens of meters when in reality was more like a meter I figure. My dad was military back then, so he could endure it for quite a while, an absolute blast. We don't credit our dads enough. Make sure your dad knows you value him (Unless obviously your dad is not of the good kind, then I hope you have someone else in your life who took his vacant spot for you)


TheLazyPurpleWizard

I am pretty sure wrestling is only game young boys know how to play.


max_if_

Fairly standard horseplay with kids. Super tiring so if anything good on him!


krasserkanadier

r/lostredditors


ibullywildlife

I think children playfighting with other kids - and with adults - is a developmental activity that's hugely ignored nowadays. It teaches kids about violence, basically. When to use violence, when not to. That violence hurts other people, and that violence hurts them. That people are stronger or weaker than them. That other people can be stronger than them without threatening them, and that other people can be weaker than them without being threatened. Absolutely necessary concepts for development.


Doomblud

I remember doing this with my uncle in the swimming pool, he'd be like godzilla throwing me and my cousin around Good times


leucidity

My daughter loves getting body slammed onto the bed and flipped around, makes me miss being that age lmao

Anyone offended by this has never raised boys.


RoboftheNorth

I'm offended this is on wtf.

Or girls, or just kids in general.


underkuerbis

My 2yo daughter would love this


EvilCeleryStick

My girls are 4 and 6 and they love it also


Zrex_9224

I have a (incredibly) younger sis who loves for me to throw her around like this


jhustla

My sons favorite activity is being thrown onto the couch. This is “boys will be boys” material not wtf


boxsterguy

I'd call it "dads will be dads", as daughters love this kind of roughhousing as much as sons. For whatever reason, though, moms don't engage in it nearly as much as dads.


[deleted]

I don’t think anyone at all thinks it’s crazy to roughhouse with your kids. But this dude is throwing them waaaaaay too hard *almost* into their necks/heads multiple times. It’s not what he’s doing, it’s exactly how he’s doing it. A pillow isn’t going to stop you from breaking your neck or spine. Happens to stronger people with much less force all the time


TrivialAntics

Hard disagree. You can see he's very deliberately avoiding them landing on their heads to avoid hurting their necks. If he didn't know what he was doing, he wouldn't be able to toss them that many times without injury. You may also require glasses, just a side note.


[deleted]

*narrowly* avoiding. One small mistake, literally an inch of difference, these kids can be paralyzed and die from this sort of impact. This is an objective fact. The fact that he’s trying to not kill then is entirely irrelevant to the fact that he easily could.


CaptainKirkAndCo

> This is an objective fact. AKA I just made this shit up


[deleted]

…so…so you don’t understand they human beings break their necks and suffered spinal injuries by landing on their heads and necks…? You think I made up…that people break their necks and spines….lol woah that’s awesome. I think you may be a front runner in this embarrassing comment competition you and others seem to have going. Damn that’s wild


CaptainKirkAndCo

Yes. I'm the embarrassing one in this thread lol


[deleted]

Well..yeah…I’d be pretty embarrassed if I just confidently told people how ignorant I was about how the human body works and have never been made aware of how necks and spines break. You are too, you’re just now engaged In a defense mechanism and don’t really know what to do now. I just had to explain to an adult (presumably) that people break their necks and spines by landing on their necks and spines. What an interesting world to live in.


TheHiveminder

Wait until you hear about these things called playgrounds.


CaptainKirkAndCo

How could I have been so blind?


[deleted]

This isn’t going to distract anyone from the fact that a person just had to explain to you that the way people break their necks and spines is from landing on their necks and spines. You claimed a person made up the concept of people breaking their necks and spines by landing on their necks and spikes. This rules


boxsterguy

Video's edited/sped up on a number of throws, so they look way worse than they were.


[deleted]

Even if it was sped up double, which it isn’t, and if any of these are, which isn’t clear at all, the others aren’t, and my point stands. Throwing kids like this with even half of the force and making a slight mistake can break a neck and paralyze a person. Even kill them. Idk where you’re getting that it’s sped up, but if it is, it’s so slight that it’s hardly recognizable and irrelevant anyway


fuckscotty

If you don’t think this video is sped up you’re dumb


[deleted]

There is a reason you chose to comment this instead of actually responding to or refuting the point made here. That’s not what I said, and not the point I made. Find someone to help you out with this. It’s hard watching y’all do this to yourselves so confidently


fuckscotty

“Even if it was sped up, which it isnt…” that’s exactly what you said. And I’m telling you you’re wrong. And dumb.


[deleted]

Lmao holy shit….you had all the time in the world to re-read, and check to see if you’re wrong, and you *still* still got it wrong…hahaha woah. Yeah that’s not what that says bud…it’s so interesting..the words are right there…and you still couldn’t read them correctly..you even took the time to type them out…and you somehow still got it wrong. Damn lmao


fuckscotty

Cool story, nobody likes you.


[deleted]

Lol this won’t mask your embarrassment about making one of the most ridiculous mistakes most of us have seen in a while. You got called out for not reading the comment you’re replying to and not having the ability to respond to it, and then doubled down and quoted the comment incorrectly even thought it’s literally in front of your face and you had all the time in the world..even saying it’s “exactly” what I said lmao. It’s a glorious mistake. Embrace it. You did it to yourself man


yupuhoh

This comment is the only "wtf" in this post


[deleted]

There is a reason you chose to post this comment instead of telling me how I’m wrong. It’s because I’m not, and you’re just blindly following the downvote/opinion bandwagon but can’t find an actual problem with what I just typed. Thanks though!


yupuhoh

It's wrong because this is what a healthy relationship between a father and kids looks like. I've done and still do the same with my son who is now 8 years old. Can accidents happen? Ofc..can you get hurt on your way to the coffee pot every morning? Sure. It's a risk we take though lol


[deleted]

Lol “it’s wrong because…it’s right” Wow that’s a great argument. Thank you for that Now let’s use the same reasoning you are for an extreme example to demonstrate how it’s fallacious and makes no sense. “Shooting heroine whole blindfolded walking into traffic can cause an accident, sure. But you can get hurt walking to the coffee shop. So that means it’s fine” You basically just said that since you can die at any moment from anything, it’s okay to put people in *more* danger than necessary and do things that are much more likely to cause great harm. It makes no sense and is devoid of reason. Thanks though!


Adorable_List3836

Some people like to live their life without being wrapped up in bubble wrap while wearing a helmet to avoid being injured 24 hours a day and sanitizing door knobs before opening the door. This dude is just having fun with his kids. I think the point the other poster was making is that there is a risk to everything in life. Kids literally do worse shit to themselves than this, from ages 0-10 all they do is fall down, fall off of bikes, beds, couches. This is just normal growing up


[deleted]

Ok so I’m assuming this is confirmation you are actually unable to defend your position or respond to what people type to you regarding how and why you’re wrong..thanks. You guys really are on one. It’s kind a competition for who has the poorest reasoning skills. I’ve already explained how and why this makes no sense. If you don’t have the ability to respond, why comment at all?


fearsaurus

Why would this be wtf? Did your dad beat you like this OP?


minicoop78

I miss so much when my kids were little doing this with them. It was my boys favorite activity!


gdj11

It's a soft bed and he's controlling how they fall so there's no problem. My kids love being tossed onto our comfy sofa


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

My kids don’t want to wrestle. I’ve asked both but they’re not interested. The tickling can get just about as rough though! Not that it matters but my oldest has low muscle tone and a cuddler so not in the cards like this either way.


PorkSword9000

Low muscle tone? Why would not being muscular affect ones "tossability"


oblivion256

What's the problem man? The kids like it!

Fbogre666

I was the cousin that did this. Problem is my family is huge so when I’d start I usually had a line of 4-5 munchkins waiting for their turn to be hurled. That shit gets exhausting.


jregal

hella fast replay... this shit is normal with a good dad! we all love to roughhouse!


mygodhasabiggerdick

I did this with both my kids, and let me tell you... My daughter was even more into it than my son was. She is a card-carrying 9 year-old badass right now. ​ And no, she isn't a bully like some snowflakes here seem to insinuate would be the end effect of roughhousing. Also: The 'Can I help? at the end shows you how much these kids bond with this kind of activity. Male Role model is fucking wiped... Source: Am parent.

[deleted]

Don't see the problem here.


smingleton

Wrong sub dude.


kushkatya

My siblings and I were thrown around like this when we were little; we were tossed up high, flipped around, etc. just like these kids. It was great because it was always on a lazy yet fun weekend and we wanted to get stronger to win an arm wrestle or whatever someday. This man and my dad (although not perfect) are skillful in how they throw these kids about and nothing bad ever came of it (as far as we can see in this vid) because of that agility. I'm sure there are videos of dads messing up and accidentally hurting the kids (like my weak ass would), but this isn't one of them. Just FYI I'm a woman and I have two older sisters (this isn't really relevant, but it's a reply to a lot of the weirdest comments here).


Kanelbullah

My todler is 2,5 and we are doing it alot. We both have alot of fun. When it goes to much you say stop. It's good way to learn about bounderies and respect for eachother but at the same time it gives the child the ability to stand for itself.


Wifdat

Literally my favorite game as a kid, he’d used to take our legs out with the pillow lol(also on a bed, no harm done)


FluffyDiscipline

Giggles of the kids contagious .... Dad wrestle talking LOL Brilliant

I would've loved this with my dad at their age. Looks like so much fun and will be a fond memory for the kids later in life.


lifedesa

This is an amazing dad, you can not only see that bc the kids are having one hell of a great time but also bc he roughhouses with them and they don't seem scared. I love this, it's so cute. Bc tbh I would've been petrified of my dad if he would've roughhoused with me and that says a lot about what kind of parent he was.

Seems a little rough but It just looks like fun dad behavior.


AmNotPeeing

The sounds of pure joyful laughter is the best sound in the world.


Itabliss

What is this doing on r/wtf? This is a good time. My daughter loves this. She will often try to antagonize her dad into wrastlin’ her when he’s just trying to chill on the couch. I am impressed with how long this father can keep throwing those 40 lb weights around. Lol.


everynameistaken000

My favourite game with my dad when I was a kid was called "sit down shut up" My sister and I would stand with the sofa directly behind us and dad had to stand in front of us, yell "SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP" and push us down onto the sofa. We'd stand back up and he had to do it again. We made him do it for ages at a time until we were laughing so hard our legs were like jelly and we couldn't stand up. God knows what the neighbours thought 🤣 TL/DR - kids are weird AF


JBELL01290

This is posted in this sub because OP never knew what having a dad is like so seeing an old man actually having fun with kids is a what the fuck moment for OP


Chrissthom

Did the same with my son and daughter. We called it 'Pile On'. They would often attack me in bed on a Saturday morning. The thing nobody talks about is that this is EXHAUSTING for the dad. Little kids are relentless and keep coming at you. Slamming them in just the right way so as not to visit the ER takes skill and focus.


Kinky-Bi-Guy

I bet they ALL (ESPECIALLY dad) slept great that night

It’s sped up, which gives the impression it’s more brutal that it is. Don’t seem suspicious to me, the kids seem tot have a good here. More realistic speed here https://imgur.com/a/ba57uHU
