I know I'm not heartless yet because I am still traumatized by the brick in the window video...

[-] BumpingFuglies@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

I'll probably regret asking, but I'm out of the loop and insatiably curious.

Brick in the window video?

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 16 points 2 months ago

If it's what I'm thinking of, camera footage of a vehicle interior.

Driving down the highway, going under an overpass when a brick gets tossed by some kids and goes through the window.

Passenger hit, husband is driving and screams.

You know that scream they mention in The Princess Bride? That "only someone experiencing ultimate suffering" can make?

If you know, you know.

I've never seen that video but I can hear that scream from the husband. That's some fucked up shit.

[-] BumpingFuglies@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 months ago

Oh no. I remember that video now. I didn't need to remember that video. Why did I have to ask?!

[-] Liz@midwest.social 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It's not an overpass. A loose brick falls off a truck going in the opposite direction, bounces off the pavement once, then goes through the windshield.

Edit: oh hurray, there's two different brick videos.

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 1 points 2 months ago

Well, I know what other video I'm never watching.

And people wonder why I don't like being around any vehicle that carries things...

[-] Scrollone@feddit.it 6 points 2 months ago

Fuck. Don't make me think about that video. Fuck. Shit.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 months ago

Gonna ruin me, but seconding. Brick in the window video?

[-] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

To sanitize the traumatic video as much as possible: A man is driving under an overpass and a brick is dropped through the passenger side window instantly killing his wife. He reacts in horror.

[-] unphazed@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Not just horror... the torment in that voice... fucking hell. Feel so bad for them both.

[-] MandragoreaeAnimada@chachara.club -3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Link to the brick video please?

[-] deranger@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

If you really want to see this type of content you can easily find it with the tiniest amount of motivation.

[-] MandragoreaeAnimada@chachara.club -1 points 2 months ago

With my luck I would try to find the video, end up getting my PC or phone infected with spyware or ransomware, and have a bad time. Yeah I rely on other humans to vet things.

[-] glowie@h4x0r.host 7 points 2 months ago

Maybe the ransomware would be better than seeing the video

[-] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

They're probably referencing the video where a woman was killed after a brick flew through the windshield. I haven't watched it, but it is on YouTube and I've heard that the husband's cries are not so nice.

I don't remember if it was kids throwing bricks off of a bridge or if it was something else.
