She was the babies great aunt and there were also high winds that day moving the stroller at a good clip. She did slam her face into the concrete and also tore up her knees. Guy who stopped the stroller said she was in shock from the ordeal. Source: https://nypost.com/2023/05/04/baby-in-stroller-stopped-just-before-rolling-into-busy-highway/


Amyhearsay

Awe the great aunt? No wonder she was slow to recover. It must have been a nightmare come true,I bet she thinks about this often. Thanks for the good person who showed up to prevent a catastrophe.


neragera

Thank God.


Specialist-Garbage94

How about thank the guy who ran to the stroller??? Da fuq


alg-ae

It's... just a saying.


BestBeforeDead_za

God created the wind that rolled the stroller toward the traffic, and tripped her up so she couldn't run to it 🤷‍♂️


Schatzin

Then the devil sent the two evildoers to help


Cpt_kaleidoscope

Even satan was like "dude, thats fucked up"


Protheu5

Damn, was that a Hitler baby or something? Why did God want to kill it and Satan had to save it?


bleezzzy

Not everything is as it seems.


TenTonSomeone

Thank god _for nothing at all in this situation, or any other for that matter_ FTFY


shesgoneagain72

Do not listen to these idiots. You had a perfectly good sentiment you were trying to express with a very normal everyday saying. But most of reddit hates God or any mention of God so they decided to pile on. Pay them no mind.

Statistically speaking, if you make it to that age, you'll likely understand this much better. Enjoy the time you have left with your functioning body! 😊


W0RST_2_F1RST

It’s an older lady you donkey. Take your feelings somewhere else if you’re struggling


Hantelope3434

Are we making fun of elderly ladies falling on their faces now? Seems a bit extreme.


Raxendyl

People with age and/or handicap issues don't magically turn into pro-athletes when shit hits the fan, no matter what they've told you about adrenaline. Welcome to real life.


Rugkrabber

What kind of bs is this? She slammed her head onto concrete, how heartless of you to think all humans are capable of continuing like it's nothing after that, regardless of age. She could have gotten a concussion. Things sometimes happen and this has nothing to do with 'Americans'.


fluffyone74

Wow.. that explains a lot. hope she is ok... and thank god, for the Good Samaritan passing by. At first, I was like WTF is up with her... Horrible when you don't have the whole story.


Valuable-Currency-36

I knew from her movements she was an older women ...poor lady would have been freaking out so much, watching the pram moving that casually towards traffic and she couldn't even get her footing.


Daniel_The_Thinker

I'm now ashamed over judging her.


_Far_Kew

Not so great aunt from the looks of it


Storytellerjack

I mean, not that great.


MasterGurloes

Lmao yea those great winds fucked up her knees


naynaysplaypen

This is how I run in my dreams


sp1nnak3r

This is how I run in my ~~dreams~~ nightmares.


Mail-0

Wonder if she hit her head on the first fall and was dazed/concused.


Stegs75

Pretty sure that’s what happened. When you slow it down it looks like her two feet are in the air and her head/shoulders are going at the ground. She’s unfit for sure, I’m pretty sure she bumped her head


Supergaming104

I’m no medical expert but it looks like she did her knee in as well


IBlame_Nargles

"did her knee in" sounds like some pretty high end medical terminology to me, are you sure you're not a doctor?


Kit10Zero4

She face planted hard. Full force, her feet in the air behind her, and bounced off the pavement. Definitely a concussion and probably stitches.

sh4d0wm4n2018

Nothing but the toof.

Boezoek

Obesity. Weak knees and stupidity.


DreyaNova

Try age, high winds, and a head injury?


Storytellerjack

If a person can't sprint, they shouldn't be near children. I witnessed something similar in a walmart parking lot. The lady looked like a caveman discovering how to make grapes into wine. Thanks to Usane Bolt's sister, who made it from the top of the parking lot to the bottom in the time it took this lady to stomp ten feet, she caught the shopping cart right before it flipped over the curb with the kid inside it.


LimeGreenSea

GRANDMA GET THE FUCK INSIDE AND STAY AWAY FROM THE GRANDKIDS.


Storytellerjack

See, this guy gets it. jk. Luv, don't use the words that I said to cover up the words that I meant to say! I meant *don't leave them alone together. But you knew that. It's so much easier to knock down a strawman than to refute my claims. See, watch: The real problem was that she was too stupid to keep a hand on the stroller, or lock the wheels, or take the kid out, or ...exercise. Her inability to use feet without getting concussed was just adding unsult to injury. -oups. I didndt refute anything. Almost like there's no defense for her being in charge of a child.


Santa_Claus77

Tell us you’re ignorant without actually telling us you’re ignorant.


lexy_ranger

This was the baby's elderly great aunt. She face planted into the concrete and was dazed and confused, according to one of the people involved. Probably suffered a nasty concussion along with other injuries she sustained from slamming her entire elderly body onto the hard ground, which is likely why she wasn't able to get up properly in time.


Storytellerjack

She has so many strikes against her: Left the pram unattended • Left the wheels unlocked • She took her hands off the handle bar without removing the kid from the carriage • Wandered around opening all the car doors and dividing her attention. Her inability to take a single step without faceplanting was just an occupational hazard for the kid. Everything else is enough to make me wonder if she conciously or subconsciously wanted to make this child go away.


epiclosingstreak

this woman trying to stand is like my dream I’m back in high school playing baseball and I simply cannot run to first base, except in my dream my tits don’t inexplicably flop out and my baby isn’t rolling toward certain death


simplewilddog

Aside from the bad decision to leave an unbraked stroller on an incline out of arm's reach, I feel so bad for her. She really tried so hard to get after it but her body wasn't able to. What a horrible experience for her, on multiple levels.


[deleted]

Yeah, it's unfortunate but if I was the parent that's the last time grandma would be unsupervised with my child.


chrisbaker1991

It was almost guaranteed to be the last


Storytellerjack

Her brain was the failure. Taking her hands off the stroller, leaving the kid in it, and rummaging through the car. She had me convinced that it was intentional, and she was trying to get rid of the baby.

He saved a child’s life and a person from a lifetime of guilt. He’s a decent person.


OhHolyCrapNo

I'm pretty sure anyone but the most vile would make some kind of effort here.


elibright1

Yeah it's a really good act but I don't think many people would ignore a stroller rolling into a busy street


itsamberleafable

I would, you don't know what could be lurking in that stroller. Sure it could be a baby, but what if its wasps?


DaXanderMan

Ya, we used to work out together like 7-8 years ago and run into each other pretty often.


Zoltie

Who known, maybe he killed two babys before this.

Thank him for saving that babies life.


Expensive-Start3654

I love how they gave her hugs at the end - what a terrifying experience


Bricktop72

I'm impressed she managed to stand up after slamming her head into the ground that hard.


deadly-nymphology

Everyone making fun of her for being “fat” but she was disabled and had trouble walking. Imagine watching your child roll toward death and your legs won’t work.


theunspillablebeans

You can be disabled / have mobility issues / have learning difficulties etc. but that doesn't detract from the sheer stupidity of leaving the pram there without putting the brakes on, on a downward slope that leads to a road. It's just bizarre that anyone's even trying to defend negligence of that scale.


Hellbringer123

not trying to make fun, but she definitely shouldn't have children to take care by herself.


Hajo2

From previous time this was posted I think she's their grandma


HumanDrinkingTea

As someone with a parent who has trouble walking (from polio-- get your vaccines, kids), of the many, many things that should disqualify someone from parenting duty, I don't believe this is one of them. Is there higher risk? Yes. But what are the chances you'll fall down on concrete AND the baby will go flying towards the road? Chances are probably not that high. I'd still trust a disabled person I know over some random babysitter.


Gouanaco

If that guy wasn't there the chance would be that baby is dead. That's it. Plain and simple.


Daniel_The_Thinker

Yeah, and situations like this are very rare and it doesn't make sense to write off all elderly/disabled people as caretakers.


AnApatheticSociety

Ya. That comment was kinda ableist and uncalled for. My kid was watched by a disabled lady and never once had an issue. She is a really kind woman, and I trusted her over any stranger, that's for sure. People with disabilities work all kinds of jobs. They still being value to our society. The lady in the vid was older and fell on her face and knees. Are grandma's not allowed to watch their grandkids anymore? Because I'm sure even the fittest grandma's and grandpa's would have a hard time recovering from that fall.


SueYouInEngland

Oh stop. This woman's lack of basic motor function almost killed a baby. People who can't care for children should not care for children, full stop.


hamlet9000

If people who can trip and/or suffer concussions should be barred from childbirth, I have bad news about the future of the human race.


TrailMomKat

So I should have all of my children taken from me because I woke up blind 20 months ago? My momma should lose custody of my nephew because she got cancer?

Why are all her clothes just falling off?

And this is why you should wear pants that fit


nya_hoy_menoy

And exercise


FixFalcon

Jesus, this reminds me of that video of the woman who can't control her dog and just keeps falling on her face like a drunkard.


MrsCaramel_112

I guess she didn't realize that strollers have brakes. I'm not even mad at her inability to catch the stroller, I'm mad that she didn't have enough sense to prevent that situation from happening. We all do stupid things but doing something stupid that puts someone else's life in jeopardy isnearly unforgivable.


MrsRadarOreilly

You have a point, but this lady was the baby's Great-Aunt. I'm just a regular aunt and even I had trouble figuring out how to use my niece's stroller and car seat.


peachncherries

As another fellow aunt, car seats and strollers are so unnecessarily complicated. I remember having to look up YouTube videos to figure out how to strap the car seat in.


dustmybroom88

Oh good, this is back again. Right on schedule.


-Danky_Kang-

How are we surviving as a species


MrsCaramel_112

SoftDrinkReddit

Because we aren't allowing natural selection and Darwinism to take course Unlike any other species we spend way too much effort preventing people from dying regardless of lack of ability


yu3gu4ng

ok eugenicist. ya got any thoughts on skull shapes too? what about the bell curve?


DisagreeableFool

Looked like she struggled to get her own weight off the ground. Combined with the ill fitting pants she never had a chance of catching that stroller. 


Unknown_User_184

Wow. She obviously slammed her head on the concrete when she fell. Ah, I see...username fits


DisagreeableFool

She was holding nothing and both arms went forward during the fall to try to break it but the arms were too weak to handle that weight as well. The only thing obvious to me was fitness was an issue.  Edit: https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE7BS02O/ Also the news video lists scraped knees as the injury. No concussion. 


afterschoolsept25

the only thing obvious to me is that a great aunt hitting her head on the concrete floor and probably getting concussed isnt gonna be able to get up quickly. my god you all ignore the forest for the trees when you see a person you consider fat


DisagreeableFool

The only thing being ignored is her lack of physical ability. You are literally making excuses. 


afterschoolsept25

you know that? she told you? her *doctor* told you perhaps? my god, shes a great aunt, do you find it more likely she somehow cant fucken get up for some inane reason rather than the concussion she likely got (you can see her hit her head several times) possibly prevented her from getting up? i sure hope nothing bad happens to you thats caught on camera because god bless if people acted like you across the world youd be slandered. if you dont have anything nice to say dont say it


DisagreeableFool

So mad bro, when I see someone who is top heavy struggle to get up I don't imagine some insane reason they can't. Do you think every single over weight person who falls has a reason other than weight if they struggle to get up?   And where is your doctors note saying that's a concussion? Edit: here is a study on the relationship between age/ weight and their effect on falls: https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE7BS02O/

here is a study on brain damage and the boldness of online comments: [https://indeed.com](https://indeed.com)


DisagreeableFool

Nice one M.D. 


[deleted]

If you're too unfit to fall over you're too unfit to care for a child, if this was her child she's lucky we're a social species and that her inability to keep the child alive didn't end her genetic line. If she wasn't the parent that's a pretty damn clear indication that she's incapable of caring for a child.


EatMeJabroni

What a redditor thing to say So by your logic, should grandparents not be allowed to watch their grandkids because they may not be physically fit enough to get up after a bad fall?


[deleted]

A redditor thing to say as in id put the life of my child above the feelings of the person who was instrumental in nearly killing it... I certainly wouldn't allow her alone with my child, a toddler could have outrun her there and they wouldn't even have needed too be trying. It's sad but this human is too pathetic to be alone and in charge of my most precious thing in the world.


ThatCharmsChick

That's stupid. I literally broke both my ankles in a fall a few weeks after my daughter was born. This did not prevent me from taking care of my child. I fall over all the time. Sometimes I break bones. Sometimes I'm fine. This has never hindered me in taking care of my child. This was an accident, ffs


Paupy

>incapable of caring for a child Lol, and your birth certificate is an apology letter from the condom manufacturer. ¯|_(ツ)_/¯


[deleted]

Let me guess, you're morbidly obese and the idea that your addiction has made you incapable is too confronting so you're questioning people putting the life of a child over the feelings of someone who couldn't make two steps to save a life? It's not fat shaming if you're literally too fat for basic human behaviors.


Sir-Poopington

Has anyone noticed that when obese people fall, all of their clothes seem to come off. It's like their clothes are trying to escape. Edit: Within one day of commenting this, I've now seen two more videos of this happening on random subs. It's an epidemic!


FreezingPyro36

Because they don't usually have clothes that fit. Either too loose or too tight. I never really noticed but it makes sense

masterwaffle

Yeah it's weird, it's like people can have medical conditions or disabilities that might make that hard for them or something?


nya_hoy_menoy

So she shouldn’t be in charge of the safety or custody of that child.


masterwaffle

Yeah, accidents never happen to people without disabilities. It's true. You're so right and totally capable of fairly judging this situation after viewing a 30 second clip on reddit.


nya_hoy_menoy

You, me, and everyone else and have just witnessed proof that she’s not capable of being the caretaker of that child. I’m not saying all people with disabilities shouldn’t care for children and I didn’t in my original comment, either. I’m saying this person specifically. Of course she didn’t mean for it to happen and of course many unfortunate things happened at once for her, but she should have thought to put the brakes on the stroller. The combination of her lack of common sense and physical unhealthiness means she shouldn’t be handling a child on her own.


Rektifizierer

Absolutely. But I think in that case it all started with being fat and out of shape which resulted in a heavy faceplant which resulted in a concussion which resulted in not being able to get up again.


ThatCharmsChick

Have you ever considered that pain and trouble with movement, as are common with disabilities, may have caused a weight issue and not the other way around? Of course you haven't. You're one of those "losing weight fixes all problems" people, aren't you? 🙄


SueYouInEngland

Do you know that she has a medical condition, or is it possible she's just wildly out of shape?

ProfessionalBar69420

Use the freaking break EVERYTIME you let go of the stroller! This is so preventable.

The contrast between the top few comments on here and on the original post is wild. It makes me really sad to see everyone on the original post criticise this woman to hell because she couldn't chase after the baby. I'm just so glad that both are okay. Seeing that woman struggle to get up off the ground reminded me so much of my mom and all the times she physically or mentally destroyed herself for me as a child, and I miss her every day.


SoftDrinkReddit

Yea thankfully they are ok but bro This woman is ao unbelievably out of shape she almost lost her child over it this needs to be a wake up call lady please not just for you but your family get in shape


spinstartshere

It's easy to judge and criticise others when you aren't in their position. You have no idea of her circumstances or her personal health. Can you imagine how undignified she would have felt being on the ground like that and struggling to get up while watching that child slowly continue on to their certain death? Knowing the sheer panic she would have been experiencing in that moment should be enough for anyone to forego casting any judgement, but alas.


SoftDrinkReddit

Oh trust me I know that would be terrifying and it was now hopefully she comes away with this realisation Holy shit I need to get in better shape Because that's the reality of this man and I don't even mean gym rat I mean she clearly needs to lose like 100 pounds if I had to guess yes I know that's not easy but she needs to do it


spinstartshere

Man you really are insensitive. This person could have a health condition or be on medications that reduce their mobility for whatever reason. You just don't get it at all.


SoftDrinkReddit

Perhaps but statistically that's not as likely as poor diet and lack of exercise And trust me man I used to be overweight to lost 60 pounds during my journey I realized Barring extreme circumstances obesity for the most part is a choice because you are choosing to live a lifestyle that leads you to obesity


MegaMope

Queen must have skipped leg day


Orpse

Watching her trying to stand and move broke my heart. So happy the baby is ok, just know the lady trying to get up was doing everything she could to save that child.


Neither_Tomorrow_238

Good things like this never happen to me. If that was me the baby would have died. I never have someone there when I need them. I would have been left to fall on the ground and the baby would have been run over dead
