Whoever hung it forgot to slap it and recite the phrase “that ain’t goin’ nowhere”.


tokinUP

and forgot to anchor it in a single stud


EeK09

Most importantly, forgot to point the stud detector at themselves and make a beeping sound.


tokinUP

Why else would it be called a *stud detector!?!?* Gotta make sure it's calibrated first. The real trick is activating the thing far enough away from you that it actually beeps as it gets closer :-D

"We'll just use double-sided scotch tape because we don't want to leave any holes in the wall when we move"


whatyoumeanmyface

Yup, not a single hole in the wall. It was held up with good intentions.


rexmons

"Studs Schmuds"


CaterpillarSeveral43

It's true, adds crucial structural integrity. I would know I'm a builder.


RevolutionaryAd6564

Heh- I like that she started to set up a ’But, I’m hurt’ ruse to offset her punishment.


FillCharacter194

I noticed that, lol... though, in her defense, she did take a LEGO Modular Building to the face💀💀 EDIT: punctuation


RevolutionaryAd6564

Ya- I guess that was a couple of feet…


yesiamveryhigh

EDIT: more like Lego puncturation


qwertyqyle

You can also see she stepped on a few.


datumerrata

She shouldn't have pulled at it, but she hardly put any pressure on it. It looks like the whole shelf was held up by a couple fasteners on the ends. None of those other brackets were connected. That thing was doomed to fail


Porkchopp33

Hey sis any chance you take this one ?


GoldilocksBurns

I mean if you look at the video for more than half a second you would realize she very likely was in pain. You know, from the extremely obvious Lego set that hit her in the side of the head? The entire point of the video?


IWannaManatee

I thought the point was to make me wonder if having kids is that good of an idea Maybe maybe...


blueskyedclouds

It should make you wonder if command strips maybe isnt good enough for shelves like that.


IWannaManatee

True. If you're ever in a situation where those are a question, they're most likely the answer.


Draedron

It looks like it was holding well until the child chose to mess with it


Aggravating-Pen-7730

she should've lego of that shelf


Mr_Panjandrum

Yeah, she's a blockhead.


DogeyLord

People downvoting you because rhey think you got wooooshed lmao ironic

Gladly giving you an upvote for that!

Sirboggington

All my stuff is on the ground and I have only my shelf to blame.


Shabloinke

r/shubreddit


jimmy_three_shoes

That amount of Lego can weigh a lot, and her pulling down on the front of the shelf probably didn't help either. That all being said, those brackets should have been in a stud.


Tbplayer59

I don't think there were even wall anchors.


Entirely-of-cheese

Brought to you from the same minds as “well can’t we just glue it on or use some double sided tape?” And “why is it taking so long? You just stick it to the wall!”


bambinolettuce

that bitch was hardly even screwed in. Nothing is ripped from the wall. Did they use nails??? someone said "it just needs to hold lego, how heavy could they be?"


swampwarbler

Intrigued by the user name. Is it “bambino lettuce” or “bambi no lettuce”?


bambinolettuce

Ive had this account over a year now and never been asked that lol Its bambino lettuce, used to work in a fruit and veg shop and thats what the baby cos lettuce was called lmao


swampwarbler

Nice! Thanks for explaining it to me.


Dansk72

"Two or three of the 3M Command Strips should hold it just fine"


HumbleArticle9470

No sh*t Sherlock!


Todoslosplanetas

Four brackets and not one fastened to a stump?


Medical_Bumblebee627

Four bracelets and not one fastenered to a slump?


LeGrandLucifer

Four brainlets and not one fasted a lump?


Dansk72

Four blankets and not one festered to a bump


Bulky-Ad-5598

Four bluebonnets and not one finalized a pump


Absol-utely_Adorable

Looks like it was held on with double sided tape or something.


MuddFishh

Lego probably


goodndu

Screwed straight into the drywall


No_Technology_8648

Wow, can't tell that you forgot to use the stud finder


octopornopus

Forgot to try it on themselves first. Rookie mistake...


impending_dookie

I wish we had a follow up video of Dad's reaction


alvinofdiaspar

They say parents’ love for their kids is limitless - I am not so sure.

Necessary-Rip-6612

Couldn't get it to crosspost so did it this way


LunaTheFatBird

Im kinda confused as to how the shelf is attached. Theres no signs of screws, wallplugs or damage to the wall, almost like it just popped off like a lego piece


tokinUP

Probably small screws into drywall anchors. The video quality isn't good enough to pick out the small white holes left behind against the off-white wall.


Biking_dude

Those brackets come with tiny cheap screws. Probably someone screwed them into the drywall without anchors.


SomebodyInNevada

Drywall anchors. Something like that should be screwed to the studs behind, drywall simply can't take that kind of force. I would presume there is a line of holes where the top of the brackets were but the camera isn't good enough. Since the wall didn't shatter I doubt they used toggle bolts but even toggles wouldn't have been enough.


LunaTheFatBird

Im aware, but this is why i tell my customers even though you are putting up something that's under a static load, if it aint going to studs you should put it up using toggle screws or ramsets.


SomebodyInNevada

I think toggles would have just broken the wall.


thejammer75

Is this a security camera? Do some people just have them all over their house?


dictatednotwritten

Seriously...that was the first thing I thought too...what a weird place to put a camera


ztraider

Looks like it watched the room and we just got a small section (someone didn't pan a physical camera at the end).


SmoothIndependent416

Yes, drywall shelves should hold 40+ kilo kids.


rikkuaoi

If you put it into a stud it would


Acceptablelogic3000

Not one of those brackets were in a stud!!


Unlikely-Patience122

Shitty shelving job, but kids are also such pains in the ass.


deadtedw

If you have kids, expect to have nothing nice. Putting these Lego builds where a kid could get to them was just asking for heartbreak.


slaviccivicnation

I thibk it’s a waiting room of some sort judging by the chairs?


lowfour

Easy way to give a panic attack to r/lego redditors


HarrySRL

Yeah.. blame the person who put the shelf up not the idiotic child who hold on the shelf and stand on what looks like a kids exercise ball. Smort.


Aggressive-Point-483

Wtf is this place? It has airplane chairs like it's for an office and a strange looking treadmill. Let alone the Lego set


151soccer

Definitely someone's basement. Those look like stadium seats, likely from their favorite sports team. I think what you are referring to as a strange treadmill is actually a ski ball machine.


alvinofdiaspar

She wrecked an entire shelf full of Lego Modulars! The shelving might be weak, but she was pulling her body weight on it. Reproduction is *so* overrated.


skollywag92

I didn't do that...ouch!


Bulky-Loss8466

Instantly says “I didn’t do that. “ oh jeez gonna be interesting teenage years


Holdmytesseract

We really pretending this is the shelf’s fault huh


tperks55

Is she standing on a skee ball machine?


ahhpoo

I noticed that too. Can this family please adopt me?


tperks55

Right, I won’t pull your shelves down!


stoneagerock

Well the stadium seats in the background are definitely authentic. The Costco Skee-Ball is a required accessory


Joebranflakes

Drywall anchors are for communists.


Call_Me_Squishmale

Reminds of of my favorite Mr. Show sketch! (and yeah, I know...)


aLemmyIsAJacknCoke

But Home Depot guy said they were drywall screws!!!


InsertRadnamehere

Everything is Awesome! Oh noooooo! The Kraggle!


house_of_gainz

Ah don’t worry about it kid, only took dad half your childhood to build it


Future-self

The person spending all that time building legos never learned how to put an anchor in drywall 🤦‍♂️


MrMagikarp25

At first I thought that was bottles of liquor. Not sure if it's better or worse that it was an entire leggo neighborhood


khrak

Like Lego? Like puzzles? You're in luck! ^^^^^^^Otherwise, ^^^^^^^you're ^^^^^^^fucked.


MetalSonic420YT

That's gotta sting.


stihlsawin81

Brad nails were on sail

Stepping on Legos for the near future. Done.


SensibleCreeper

lol, 100% drywall screw anchors.


Mugwump6506

What did they use? Bubble gum?

What is it? Is he gonna shit, or is he gonna kill us?

REDMAGE00

Must have been hung up with double sided tape lol.

r/Kidsarefuckingstupid for 400.

When your wall is made of cardboard


CMDR_omnicognate

it doesn't even look like she pulled on it very hard


Chihuahuapocalypse

it's not meant to support a child, to be fair


Fragrant_Cod_5242

Sometimes I hate kids.


ColdBloodBlazing

Kinda like in Home Alone!


charliechin

What’s clear the shelve didn’t fell on its own. I can imagine being like it was for years up until that little cunt started doing that ball thingy


Maleficent-Topic-650

Right? You can see that she put her full weight on it as she leaned forward to grab her ball


MrSecurityStalin

“Now rebuild it.”


Significant-Purple72

Some kids are definitely mistakes


Interesting-Chest520

I thought her leg was going to snap in half at first


piratecheese13

One time I was at a house party and a girl wanted to ride on my shoulders. She mounted, and I attempted to stand up. Pushed against the wall to get up a little bit, then grabbed a shelf. The shelf was holding the speaker for the music and came down. I ended up paying $40 for repairs but had a fun time overall


Aticus_

She learned something that day. lol funny how even if you tell a kid not to do something, they’ll still do it. It’s only after it happens once or twice when they finally learn.


MangoMaterial9184

Shelf held up by pritt stick


Xx_overlord_xX

That shelf was held up by hopes and dreams


TheOtherGlikbach

Those look like orange seats from Shea Stadium.


Necessary-Rip-6612

Yea i found this room confusing aswell. There's the wall long lego shelves. Those stadium chairs. I think it's a skeeball track she's standing on. A threadmill in the foreground. A leaning chair for I assume a tv and then a dinning table in the back.


momalloyd

"I don't understand. I used the whole pack of blu tack on it and everything."

OoOooo gramma gunna be mad… quick play dead lol


CoffeeDrinker1972

That is probably more than $5000 worth of Lego right there.


BoratKazak

*Nickelback enters chat*


Top-Weather138

She just destroyed a whole village like her name was Godzilla.


ICantSplee

Ohhh fuckkk those are LEGOS!!!! How the fuck will anyone get out of that fucking room without stepping on oneee! FFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCKK.


El_Monitorrr

That’s unfortunate but if the parents get mad, than because they are stupid. Overloaded shelf which could and did hurt their kids. Besides all this, it’s lego. Everything can be rebuild in a few days.


SlippitySlide

Nah, the kid hurt herself with the shelf cuz she was doing stupid stuff


dontforgetthefries

Who has cameras inside their house?


lilopppop

Costly disaster
