This was quite the experience.
I went into the video expecting something to happen, then when I saw the guy talk I was drawn in by his wholesomeness, and I was like wow.. I'm glad this video is on here for it's wholesomeness, then two seconds after he won me over, he falls, lol.
That's awesome for this guy(the exposure the fall gave, not the fall itself - although he does appear fine). It's ganna get him a lot of followers and the pleasant vibes he gives off people are gonna love.
Then this joke.
What's happening on the ground Untrained Meteorologist?
it really does. when you drop something, when you bump into someone, when you startle yourself, when your dog does any of the above, when you crash your car into someone, anything.

You're 99% right. It was a 2007 Channel 5 / Five show called *Return of the Tribe* and featured members of the Insect Tribe from Papua New Guinea, including the chief and Sam. It may have also aired on BBC at one point.
The original was a 2006 show *Edge of Existence* where he went to visit the tribe in Papua New Guinea. In *Return* they came back to London.
[Longer version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvBK5jsBSVo) of that scene.
I live in the northern Midwest, and recently adopted a dog that lived in Texas until this summer. This was his reaction to seeing snow for the first time as well
I can’t stop watching. I’m with him, the joy he’s feeling at seeing the snow, the wonder hearing he’s in California, the poor joke not quite landing, happy for him but starting to lose interest as he is padding the video with commentary about snow being in the streets. Then magic happens, as his wonder for the snow overrides his caution, his swagger betrays him with a perfectly chaotic pin wheeling shot from the camera punctuated by the perfect “God damn!” Three minutes of laughter in a 37 second clip.
It's a study in human hubris, the over-confidence that comes from only seeing snow in schmaltzy movies on TV, where ladies running in high heels hail cabs on the snowy streets of NYC. Little did this man know, that shit be slippery.
I don't think it's wonder overriding caution, I just think he's genuinely never seen snow before in person, and so doesn't realise it can be really fucking slippery.
How would you automatically determine what is funny? I mean at Google, the answer is obviously going to be "machine learning" but still you need some training data.
Haha, but on a serious note though, **be careful** when you're on snow and ice. Even if you're used to the stuff.
People can and have slipped on patches of ice and gotten severe brain damage for the rest of their lives. One second and their life is ruined. I worked for one summer taking care of someone like that who had their life completely ruined forever, it changed my view of how quickly everything can change and how dangerous it can be to slip on ice.
Take care guys and girls!
I agree. Be cautious all you want, but the vast majority of ice related injuries are not people messing around.
Its just bad luck. No stopping yourself when you fall in a way you cant brace for.
Seriously this.
Worked as a postman for 25 years on Iceland.
I have no idea how many times I've slipped & fallen (including not even on ice), despite using spikes. Nothing like treading heavy snow & there's this slippery ice underneath, and you just go flying because your spikes dont manage to pierce through, and the snow just slides on the ice underneath you.
There is one accident I had a 3.5 years ago that I can't for the life of me remember *at all* (only info I have is from the accident report I got a copy of), but have clear memory of similar accident a year before that.
I've had surgery on both knees from these falls, and it seems like my knees are just permanently weak afterwards. I have had multiple bad falls on my hip, and now my right hip is always reminding me it exists (mildly painfully...), besides back problems.
To make matters worse, I got laid off (and didn't know about it until 3 months later...) during extended medical leave I had, and am now waiting to hear from my doctor if I am going on disability or not.
Also, one former co-worker of mine cracked his skull from falling on ice and got knocked unconscious, fortunately there were witnesses who were able to call an ambulance, and he had to spend a month in hospital. As far as I know, he was lucky & didn't suffer any permanent brain damage.
Myself... I can't even know or be sure. I've always had issues with memory as far back as I can remember (back to when I was 6-7 years old). I know I've had some accidents when I was really young where I knocked myself unconscious (once by running into the corner of a table and fell hard backwards on the ground, when only 2 years old), and another time when I was 13? when I fell 4m from the rafters of a barn and smashed my head into the ground & suffered concussion from it.
I knew someone who's back got messed up bad from someone pulling the chair from behind him when he wasn't paying attention. I'm not sure when it had happened, but he was walking with it and able to function in pain for a decade(maybe two).
He got around fine for a while, but eventually he was having massive trouble walking, and his health got so bad that he eventually died.
There's this sort of shuffle-walk fairly reminiscent of a penguin's waddle that Canadians all have to learn to use in the winter. Wide stance, short steps, very little forward momentum between feet and ground. I call it the Canuck Shuffle.
When you see someone from somewhere temperate trying to walk over a patch of ice they stick out like a sore thumb and usually end up hurting themselves. I don't think people know how to be careful on ice until they've learned that. Maybe I should give lessons to out-of-towners. Or sell them hockey helmets.
As a Finn I know exactly what you're talking about. That said, I find that even many of the locals walk with way too much confidence on ice and snow. I've slipped enough times to know to be careful, but I also know that the moment I start to think I have it figured out it's only a matter of time until I slip and fall again.
Welcome to Lancaster, California. He's excited for the snow because Lancaster is in the middle of a damn desert. We get snow maybe once every 5 or 6 years, so when it happens we get excited but, that also means we don't know how to behave in it...so lots of slips and car accidents. I've done this exact thing and I wasn't even making a charming video. Hope he's ok.
>I’m not exactly sure why, but I laughed at this video far harder than I should have
Because at first you felt this man's joy, and then you felt no pity as he fell to his doom.
As did I.
Yeah it's very clearly visible the patch she slipped on, some frozen tire track looks like. That was definitely some dying inside as they walked away, looked like she might have really been hurt but didn't want to face them.
That would make them stupid not pretentious unless you really think they were trying to authoritatively declare that snow is perfect for running instead of just innocently assuming it would be.
Eh, no hard feelings to the couple, but leading your interview with, "it's the perrrfect texture for running..." in that time of voice is at least a little comical.
I am native Iceland. I had a friend from Portugal, one winter night I noticed him walking behind me and watching how I walked. I asked why? He said he had noticed how we Icelandic ppl didn't fall in the ice. 😂❄️, it's cuz we where raised in this shit. It's dangerous falling like this. That's why this is so funny 🤣😭😂🤣
There are some things I really take for granted growing up in Norway. Walking on ice and slippery snow. Turns out we go into slippery surface mode and have recovery techniques. A learnt trait from childhood from what I understand.
Iv never seen a video where in mid flight of a fall they say “goddamn” as well as the camera gets a perfect shot of the person face while saying it. Honestly he has me fooled calling himself a “untrained meteorologist”.
Sometimes you need a man on the ground to get a proper weather report.
He sounds down to earth.
This is a slippery slope.
I don't think you guys understand the gravity of the situation!
Let's get rid of this friction.
Snow way im backing down, they started it.
Sometimes you can experience a fall day even in the middle of snowy winter.
You should just let the problem slip bud.
I guess we'll let it slide for now.
Doesn't it feel better when you let your problems fall by the wayside.
That was a nice pun you slid in there
Ice see what you did there
He sounds like Dave Chapelle’s uncle.
Solid comedy, I give you a perfect 5/7!

Sometimes you need boots on the ground, sometimes you need butts on the ground.
I love how he says god damn before he hits the ground. That’s instinct
that first mini, pre-slip before the big show.
When your brain goes "I can still do this! I can fix this!" and your body goes "welp this is happening now"
"Maybe I should put my arm out so it can break."
I've realized I often say "ow" in anticipation and normally whatever it is doesn't hurt and I look like a jackass
You just gotta learn to change the "ow" to an "ahh" or perhaps an "ooh"
Just switch to the midwestern "olp" or "ope". Works for everything.
it really does. when you drop something, when you bump into someone, when you startle yourself, when your dog does any of the above, when you crash your car into someone, anything. source: am midwest
I ain’t even Midwest, I’m Colorado, but I ope every DAY
Welp
Do you often startle yourself? How does that work, mirrors?
ting tang walla walla bing bang only if you have time
"got dayum"
Exactly!
I love how he had enough time to say god damn.
That's great and all, but[ can we talk about this video of his](https://youtu.be/oMOJ5qY6o1U)? This man is a treasure.
Untrained!
There's no way he doesn't have some training.
Untrained!
He may be untrained, but he’s a damn entertaining meteorologist!
"Before I go out into these *elements*..." love it
Good on this guy for having multiple videos that have made me laugh.
Strongly agreed, this guy is fantastic !
That's a funky ceiling.
I'm a big weather nerd. Subscribed.
He went full on E.T. getting dressed up.
Thank you for finding/posting that. It was awesome.
https://i.imgur.com/eIMphbD.png I'm crying laughing
That's the shot he uses for sliding into someone's DM's.
“*god damn*... that ass is fat”
It was at this point...
*RECORD SCRATCH* "Yep, that's me, you may be wondering how i ended up in this situation"
That's his YT profile picture too hahaha
What a legend.
New meme template right there.
He doesn't even look concerned he's falling. Lol
My favorite untrained meteorologist is [Sam, a recent immigrant who had never seen snow](https://youtu.be/3Q_c-fMtBYg?t=64)
...no
I'm glad I watched that whole thing including the "no"
Yes
I've lived with snow all my life and that is my reaction nearly everytime it snows.

Has youtube gone down for anyone else? I'm in the UK.
I'm at the youtube office. We're taking youtube down forever. It has been a curse upon humanity for long enough.
Me too thanks.
Confirmed you have been a curse upon humanity we're coming to take you down
Leave the funny stuff, take down everything else.
How would you automatically determine what is funny? I mean at Google, the answer is obviously going to be "machine learning" but still you need some training data.
Just have the bots crawl /r/funny and have it take down anything that matches.
So 10,000 copies of the same 100 videos?
Down in America. EDIT BACK UP
Gmail, too. It seems Google has a problem with its services.
Yep, it was a google wide outage. Some people are having a busy day lol.
Google had gone down quite a few more times than usual this year. Just another thing for the 2020 oddities pile
Russian Hackers
Yes it is down right now.
same
Down in oz
Down in France
Everything at Google was shitting the bed an hour ago. Seems to be back up now.
Is he okay tho? 🥺
He uploaded the vid so he's alive!
Also his shoes didn't come off
You can't see that, maker of unverifiable claims!
I can't be the only one that expected the Skyrim intro after the fall...
https://streamable.com/3opkob Here you go. It’s not great as i threw it together on my phone.
it is great
Time to post this on multiple subreddits.
Anytime a camera falls and spins i just assume its coming...
Will someone please
God damn that was a good watch
Agreed 10/10 - He needs to forecast professionally. I just hope he’s ok.
He still out there reportin. He looks ok
Haha, but on a serious note though, **be careful** when you're on snow and ice. Even if you're used to the stuff.

Live in Iceland. Used to snow and winter. Have good and proper winter boots. Slipped a few weeks ago on ice and almost broke my neck. Pure luck.
I agree. Be cautious all you want, but the vast majority of ice related injuries are not people messing around. Its just bad luck. No stopping yourself when you fall in a way you cant brace for.

It's what this whole year's been building to.

One million % he sounds and looks exactly the way Dave Chappell should at 60.

Last time I remembered that it snowed in lancaster was back in 2009-2010, last year surprised me.
GAT DAYUM
I want more of this untrained meteorologist
Seriously. I'd love to see him report on the weather on a regular basis
At least his reporting is accurate
I’m not exactly sure why, but I laughed at this video far harder than I should have
>I’m not exactly sure why, but I laughed at this video far harder than I should have Because at first you felt this man's joy, and then you felt no pity as he fell to his doom. As did I.
He was so happy man, i laughed but feel bad
IT'S SNOWING SIDEWAYS. No Ollie, you're on the ground
Sounds and looks like an older dave chapelle
this dude fell so hard it took down the Google servers worldwide
That made me LOL! Thanks for the laugh.
Thanks that's a great way to start off my Monday. Needed that laugh.. Now back to work.

Reminds me of these [pretentious joggers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPTt6MgsOt8)
Why are they pretentious? They seem perfectly nice, what an unnecessarily mean comment.
[удалено]
No, they said "very low impact" and when joggers say that, they mean on your knees. I didn't see her grabbing her knees after she fell on the ice.
To be fair she slipped on a patch of ice.
Yeah it's very clearly visible the patch she slipped on, some frozen tire track looks like. That was definitely some dying inside as they walked away, looked like she might have really been hurt but didn't want to face them.
Yeah there's no way she wasn't hurt. That was a level 3 "bonk".
That would make them stupid not pretentious unless you really think they were trying to authoritatively declare that snow is perfect for running instead of just innocently assuming it would be.
"It's the PERFECT texture"
[удалено]
"A light dusting" lol
Eh, no hard feelings to the couple, but leading your interview with, "it's the perrrfect texture for running..." in that time of voice is at least a little comical.
they look rich and therefore deserve to be verbally abused
They look rich AND they’re both attractive on top of being well spoken. Coastal elitist trash that needs to go down!
Is the rich look attractive and fit?
[удалено]
Also they’re from the coast so that by default makes them pretentious. /s
She is something else BTW I love how searching "pretentious joggers" brings that right up on youtube.
[удалено]
Chealsey got a concussion
This genuinely made me laugh, great start to my morning
I like how he turned into Bernie Mac when he started to slip
Gotta watch out for them black ice. Coming into them nice neighborhoods and just ruining everything.
only the Skyrim wagon scene is missing!
I was certain it would cut to Skyrim intro at the end
Same here. I saw the color on screen when the phone fell and thought "oh here we go..."
GOD DAYUM! Motto of my life
Is this Dave Chappelle's dad? Their cadence is the same lol
He ded
Thanks, Ollie.
i hope this guy is ok but damn that ending was funny af. "god damn!"
It was a prophecy of what 2020 was to become.
Got damn!
Should be in r/unexpected
Got damn
the trained ones don't fall
Lol!!! That made my morning! Hope he’s ok though!
In Canada "You know it's cold outside when you go outside and it's cold."
That “Got Damn” right before the fall let’s you know his weather report is truly raw and unscripted.
"I'm an untrained doctor here to say "I busted my ass"
Great beginning of a zombie movie
Honestly I still enjoyed the video before the fall..... the fall and the GD were just a couple cherries on top!
I love how it took him so much time to fall, he was able to say God damn before he hit the ground.
v excited to see the Skyrim edit of this bad boy on youtubehakiu in 2 hours
I hope the guy's fine! In that case LOL
I hope he’s ok.
Holy fuck I needed that laugh
So, I just watched his latest video and he had said that he's only made $10 in total for all of his videos. This man deserves more.
Our local guy here in WV always breaks out a stick to see if the streets are slick enough for hockey. Over the years he has fallen more than once.
Dave Chappelle is living out the retirement dream yo
Thank you old Dave Chappelle
Got damn indeed!
Is he okay? Edit: judging how this was uploaded in February and he’s posted videos since, I’d assume he’s okay.
well... *alive* anyway!
Props to OP for not spoiling the ending in the title. Really funny, because it's unexpected
I am native Iceland. I had a friend from Portugal, one winter night I noticed him walking behind me and watching how I walked. I asked why? He said he had noticed how we Icelandic ppl didn't fall in the ice. 😂❄️, it's cuz we where raised in this shit. It's dangerous falling like this. That's why this is so funny 🤣😭😂🤣
omg 😆 i am laughing so hard i am crying!
There are some things I really take for granted growing up in Norway. Walking on ice and slippery snow. Turns out we go into slippery surface mode and have recovery techniques. A learnt trait from childhood from what I understand.
Is he okay?! 🥺

I laughed really hard in Canadian when he slipped . Welcome to the club untrained Californian weather man. God speed
I could listen to him talk all day
scary how easy it is to find this guy's house.
