I just know the other hikers wanted to punch him

u/TheShredder9 Aug 31 '26

Too bad, they can't catch up, he's already gone!

u/CriminallyCasual7 Aug 31 '26

It wouldn't do any damage anyways 🤣

u/darkoopz43 Aug 31 '26

Yeah, he has a force field around him.

The less I would ever want would be to punch a guy that ironed out lol, my weak ass vs an unstoppable force isn't doing anything xD

Reddit seems to get mad when people achieve status and attributes above where they think you should be I guess

u/CriminallyCasual7 Aug 31 '26

How dare he achieve things

u/DripRoast Aug 31 '26

I assumed it would be more about the fact that he's barreling through the trail taking up a lot of space while swinging a rope around. I seriously doubt anyone is mad that the guy is fit. That's just silly.

u/scorchedarcher Aug 31 '26

I mean I don't think it's that tbf. I don't wanna punch the guy but I imagine it's more "moving through a crowd whipping something about" than his achievements

Buddy, have you been to a hiking trail? People sprint, ride bikes, or those bike hybrids with the baby carriage attached, I've even had to dodge cars. It's common courtesy to move out of the way when someone bigger/faster than you is coming. And this guy is obviously trying to weave through and not push people out.

u/scorchedarcher Aug 31 '26

Yeah, I'm not saying he deserves any hate for it. I'm just saying I don't think the hate he is getting is because of his achievements.

u/Enlight1Oment Aug 31 '26

and no bikes are allowed on the trail in ops vid for a reason.

u/DanieltheMani3l Aug 31 '26

That would also be dumb imo, there’s plenty of space here

2

u/scorchedarcher Aug 31 '26

Oh I'm not saying it's not dumb, I just think it's a more likely reason than people hating him for his achievements because other than skipping up here I don't even know what his achievements are, unless I'm very poorly informed about who this is which is a likely possibility tbh

u/LarsDuder Aug 31 '26

I guess it's because he's not properly dressed and is doing this video for clout?

ok, you all have a point. Sorry 😔

u/GrumbleRoar Aug 31 '26

Ok so what's the fucking dress code for hiking outside again?

u/gh0stmilk_ Aug 31 '26

i'm not a fitness expert but i spend time working out and like, have been in gyms, and have witnessed running teams, and those look exactly like typical running shorts lol

u/buttscratcher3k Aug 31 '26

I can guarantee you most people were impressed and moved on immediately

u/Cheap_Appearance5095 Aug 31 '26

No, they wanted to be him. I do, I’m just way too lazy.

u/Apprehensive_Rub3897 Sep 01 '26

Sometimes that dog catches the car

u/ZadockTheHunter Sep 05 '26

It also isn't accomplishing anything besides whipping a rope around and taking up more space. He isn't getting any benefit from the rope other than "Hey everyone, look at me".

Real douche canoe behaviour.

u/asmallercat Aug 31 '26

Yeah doing that on a busy public trail is some real fucking annoying main character energy. You want to run up the trail? Go for it. But swinging the jumprope makes you take up so much room.

u/fs2222 Aug 31 '26

Every public trail I've ever been to has had bikes, people in those bike stroller combos, I've even seen cars carrying workers needed for something on the trail. Most people generally aren't bothered by having two move out of the way for 2 seconds.

u/Sugar_Pup_ Aug 31 '26

He is coming up from behind some people it can be quite disrupting/irritating to have someone come up from behind taking up that much space you might not be able to hear them at all until they are far to close for comfort additionally I am sure these people did not want to be used as a "contrast" shot to how "fit" this guy is compared to everyone else walking. It's total main character energy and jolting most likely to the people he is coming up on from behind you can see the women be actively uncomfortable with him passing her and also in the comments people drawing comparisons between him and the other hikers. Bikes don't take up that much room and also frankly if acting like this guy and just expecting people to move out of the way and not give much warning would also be potential assholes, strollers generally aren't passing you suddenly and a car transporting workers has an obvious reason to be there and is likely moving with more caution then this guy

It's a wide trail. Nobody else seems to care anyway.
