r/Askreddit How Did Someone Ruin Their Life in 1 Minute?

I have one. A youtuber went after a lawyer claiming he was stealing from her when it was something that was built into the program. It only got worse from there.

When I clicked on the video, I thought it was just gonna be a bunch of HR violations, just a quick laugh. I was not ready for the obscene amount of murder from this question.

Homie in the arc blast didn’t survive if he’s in a vegetative state. Very sad story

With the guy in a vegetative state after being burned... I wonder if its better to just let some people pass. That poor man...

To prevent life-altering events in less than 10 seconds is to remember the words of Miss Frizzle: “Seatbelts Everyone!!”

Man the amount of people who will escalate from petty theft to murder is truly scary.

All those stories of people dying from getting hit/run over... It hurts my heart. My manager's 16yo niece was killed in a car crash and the man responsible walked away with his license revoked in the state of NJ and a slap on the wrist. Found out a year or so ago that he moved to NY and got a new license, so he's still driving. I'm a firm believer that people who cause deaths via vehicular accidents deserve way worse punishments than what a lot of them get.

All the stories of the justice system failing to provide justice is the saddest part of this video. 6 months for VEHICULAR HOMICIDE? It's no wonder people don't trust any justice system.

I didnt see it live, but i witnessed the fallout. A few years back, i was at the hospital wairing to get treated for a twisted ankle. When i saw this old couple have a full on melt down right in the E&R. And i mean a full melt down. They litterally collapsed on the floor, bawling their eyes out. The old man was crying out "Im Sorry! Im sorry!" over and over again while his wife was trying to calm him down, saying it was not his fault. And it was not like i was ease dropping or anything, this was all happenimg less than 10 feet away, right in front of me. From what i waa able to piece together, their son had been in a car accident and he did not survive. But the worse part, it seemed that the old man had gotten into a huge blow out with his son that morning and the son left the house to "cool off" but ended up going out with his friends and ended with the car accident. Basically, the last memory the old man had of his son, was yelling at him as he left the house. Probably saying some things he wished he never said and cause his son to leave their house. I dont know how you come back from that.

As someone who's worked in envirements with electrocution hazards: If you're not qualified, DO NOT WORK ON IT. If your boss threatens to fire you, let him. You life is more important than keeping your job. I've seen it a million times, people be told to work on something they're not supposed to because their boss threatened them.
