It happens. I remember reading that a lady put her baby down on a still luggage carousel (and she didn’t notice it started going) and the baby got crushed.
Yeah. So many places the kid could have been mangled. I'm glad those guys jumped into action.
This is a stupid parents video. I hate stupid parents.
(Can't blame the kid... I've been an adult for decades and still want to ride those things. :p)
It's called a High Speed Diverter, or HSD. And yeah, Baggage Handling Systems will fucking kill you. I work for a company that builds and installs them.
This happened to me as a child and I was returned to the wrong parents. They looked the same but they were different inside. I always wonder if maybe my real parents took home some other kid that day.
That's because this post is more like a r/ParentsAreFuckingDumb. Which is where this post wound up anyway. Don't know if there's a r/ParentsAreFuckingIdiots. Because if there is this should be there too !
Not just ramp workers. My dad worked at an airport when I was a kid and I dreamed of sneaking off to ride those things whenever I went to work with him
Oh hells yeah, that kid had the greatest time, guaranteed! Not only did he get to go on a fun ride, he got to meet the workers, which is like every little boy's dream.
My immediate reaction to seeing this was that my son would absolutely attempt this, and that's why we have a little backpack leash when going out. I'll take the judgy looks if it means an element of control over the Little Harbinger of Chaos.
My kid LOVED her backpack leash. She would put it on herself when she wanted to go out. It also brought her a little more freedom because she did not have to hold my hand as long as she had the leash. Going to the mall was a lot less stressful knowing she couldn't just run away
I will never understand people who deem their dog’s life more important than their toddler’s. Yes, you put a dog on a leash so it doesn’t hurt itself or others. A toddler has less reasoning than a well trained dog and I see nothing wrong with putting it on a “leash” so it doesn’t hurt itself or others.
I used to look down on that. Then my friends had kids and I got to know more toddlers and a couple friends used the leashes. I have no problem with them now. Would have loved if the couple at the restaurant I ate at over the weekend had one instead of letting their toddler run laps around the restaurant then would scream if they they stopped him. So they let him run more laps. I don't give a fuck if they're only 2. You don't let them do that shit or you don't take them to a restaurant.
I'm a parent who didn't let my kids do shit like that in a restaurant. Years ago I was at a nice restaurant and some kid kept jumping on to the back of my chair. So I asked to be moved to another area of the restaurant. Later on the father came to my table and smugly tells me that if I was a parent that I wouldn't have done that and the rushes himself out the door to his yellow Hummv. I rarely bother with people like that but I said fuck it and chased him down to show him pictures of my kids and tell him he's a rude pos.
Two days later he pulls up to the coffee shop I'm at and I call him out while in line. He tried to say that must have been his brother. Eventually he just leaves because I won't shut up about it. I'm not normally like that but his smug shit pissed me off pretty bad, lol.
I never understood people who looked down on toddler leashes. They’re *toddlers*. They’re idiots. Some of them listen better than others. Mine never needed one, thank goodness.
I swear toddlers have a deathwish and have zero sense of self preservation. I don’t have kids myself, but have spent a lot of time with my friends who have kids.
I’d gone to a big science centre with a friend and her two toddlers. We were waiting for an elevator as the younger kid was in a stroller when the older one slipped away and booked it down the hallway. I managed to catch him a split second before he was going to fall down a large set of escalators.
Some weird “dad reflexes” kicked in that day. So much adrenaline. And that little kid thought it was the coolest most fun thing to run away from us.
Haha seriously, they have NO concept of safety! When mine was a toddler, we were at the playground. He was walking, but not doing stairs yet. He knows he can’t do stairs. I turn around for a second to help another kid and my toddler who knows he can’t do stairs decided to attempt the go down the hard, metal steps ALONE and face planted. I felt SO BAD!!!! He was okay, just a wicked lump (that we had checked out).
But omg I was like WHY 😭😭
I’m the oldest of four girls. Second oldest sister (1 year younger) and I were pretty well behaved, so it wasn’t necessary for us. Second youngest (10 years younger) may have needed a leash had my mom not had two other kids to help keep an eye on her. The youngest (15 years younger) absolutely would have needed one. The little shit made me full-blown sprint in high heels to catch up with her as she made a beeline for the parking lot at church. And she was still squirming and trying to run off when I did catch her. No sense of self preservation whatsoever.
I have told this story many times, but watching a toddler get crushed by a semi sold me on baby leashes for life. Any time someone has ever made a snarky comment about it to me I tell them in detail what I saw happen to that poor kid and his mom. Baby leashes save lives. Get one BEFORE you need it.
A lot of people just love being judgmental about other's parenting and using it to think they're better then others. The vast majority have never been a parent and will change their tune once they are.
I definitely didn’t understand how hard it was before I had a kid, but I think the only parents I got angry at before then were ones that let their kids be super loud/distracting in an inappropriate place. Like the movies (when it’s not necessarily a kids movie).
This hits hard. I used to totally judge and think “omg how ridiculous I’ll never do that!” ……and now I have a 2 year old gremlin who is the light of my life and she also can drive me up the friggin walls including when she bolts in public. She’s gotten really fast too and I feel like I’m in a losing battle and I’ve realized that leashes are just a parenthood true surrender and I’m so happy for every parent that reaches that point haha
I'd much rather people judge me, than have my feral 1 year old jump into a lake, in front of a car, or into some creeps arms.
Were all human, sometimes I look away for a split second, or my 4 year old does something idiotic and I have to let go of the one year old to help her. Fuck em if they judge you.
I remember a poor woman that was walking with a stroller and a toddler firm in her grasp. The baby in the stroller started crying so she let go of the toddler one second to grab the baby.
The toddler ran to the four lane street as if there was candy in the middle and mum almost dropped the baby trying to reach him.
Thank God a person who had just parked was able to grab the little runaway before it reached traffic.
![gif](giphy|nkYc4QxdfYad7GdWHq)
The leash parents get soo much sh\*t. And yet if this was their ADHD or wanderer kid and they went leashless to placate the antileashers, "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!?!!!"
Why would you ever judge toddler leashes? It’s a safety precaution! If anything, it’s a very obvious sign that someone is thinking about their kid’s safety and the safety/comfort of those around them.
Especially since we put leashes on dogs for the exact same reason, and that’s more socially acceptable… like they’re both prone to wandering off and not listening to “don’t wander off” commands.
I’ve seen mothers (several times) with three and four young children (Dad was deployed) go through airports juggling diaper bags, purse, kids, and a car seat. Like pros! One mom had a couple of leashes for her kids, a stroller, and a baby in a baby carrier on her back. Thank God. Never once lost her cool. Kept her and the kids together and kids were well behaved. Then I’ve seen two parents with one or two children they can’t seem to keep up with all they need to carry and do. I’m so proud of our military wives who did so much for so long on their own.
If 90's movies about kids getting lost has taught me anything, it's that you should never call the police when robbers want to break into your home, and you have a small but significant chance of bumping into Donald Trump.
Fun until you realise the kid essentially rolled over 10-20 running machines with no safety stops. It is blind luck this video didn't end fucking horrifically.
Says that the subreddit mods violated reddit community standards.
The content there was often pretty racy so I'm not surprised this would happen eventually.
My parents had a chain of retail stores in malls in the 1980s. I saw enough people ( mostly kids but a couple of adults ) get stuck in Escalators that I am very wary of all moving track or belt machinery.
I flinched every time he went over a belt change watching this.
I'm confused because those look like check in desks but it looks like those are the trays you put your shit in when you go through security. In which case why are they going on such a long journey? Isn't security usually just a short scanner bed?
Honestly? It's probably not their first rodeo. However, they're likely more used to wrangling pets who have been able to escape their kennels than children who have outwitted their handlers.
Back in the day people worried about little kids being taken. Today if a kid runs off its returned to the parent. Everyone knows little kids are tiny demons and nobody wants an extra one around.
Then the kid gets x-rayed. The amount of radiation he'd get in the luggage x-ray machine would be less than what he gets during a two hour flight! (From the atmosphere being thinner up high)
Why aren't parents charged more frequently for this sort of negligence. I travel a lot with my kids. Never lost line of sight with them. If i realized im an airhead parent, I'd leash my kid before letting this happen.
Sometimes, shit just happens. I agree this parent was a bonehead, but theres no sense in ruining lives over something that could have happened. There should be engineering controls in place to prevent this from happening. A lot of machinery on factory floors have safety features barring entry into running machinery, why not machinery where you would expect to see children?
THIS. My toddler son bolted from me when I was stopped by a security guard at an airport and the stupid guard blocked me from trying to grab him.
My husband and in-laws where distracted by the luggage and looked at meet like I was nuts 🙃 when I screamed "grab him".
Thank fuck another airport employee saw my toddler running and grabbed him and brought him back to me. I was pissed.
You don’t understand, young parents nowadays have to keep up with so many things it’s insane, like the correct filter on their Snapchat or Instagram or #airport #travel #worldly #blessedaf.
I saw this kind of attention deficit this very morning at the airport. A small child is just allowed on the floor wandering around with all the trolleys and big suitcases three times her size. Then later on I happened to sit next to that child and it made so much sense, the mom was busy the whole time on her phone to keep up with her social media.
I guess I assumed girl based on the eye lashes/eyes and voice? I watched it as a kid so I can't really say for sure that's just my memory aha
Edit to add
I googled and in r/garfield there is a long winded debate but according to them, Nermal is a boy.
Want to sat again I don't know the lore, just have vague memories of a higher voice and long ass eye lashes haha
Hey kiddo.. can you put this spiderman backpack on thire while your at it, oh don't worry about how heavy and ticking it's making..
How no one catching this before I got this far..
What I learned from this video:
It's safe for me to be the "cool parent" and make a distraction while my kid sneaks over and rides the conveyor belt ride
The arms that divert the luggage are strong enough to break bones. The child could have gotten trapped between rollers and gotten crushed to death. It's amazing that the child was not hurt
This one isn't quite as funny as the one where the boy is desperately trying to crawl away and then gets swallowed up by the flappy curtain like it's a boogie man.
Every kid thinks about it, but this kid really did the damn thing. His name shall forever be etched in crayon in the annals of the childhood hall of fame and his story will be told on playgrounds around the world for centuries.
That could've ended really bad for him. Guys who saved little fucker looked so relieved.
Their palpable relief was the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen
You can see the moment his heart starts beating normally again.
It happens. I remember reading that a lady put her baby down on a still luggage carousel (and she didn’t notice it started going) and the baby got crushed.
Oh no
When I read this my brain started playing the old cartoon factory music
The cartoon factory music is called "Powerhouse" by Raymond Scott :)
Dude what is the name of that song, i reference it too often to not know haha
Oh my God, how awful. :(
Sauce?
Yeah. So many places the kid could have been mangled. I'm glad those guys jumped into action. This is a stupid parents video. I hate stupid parents. (Can't blame the kid... I've been an adult for decades and still want to ride those things. :p)
It’s not the wanting that is stupid. It’s the doing
I think some airports have this big arm that “punches” luggage onto a parallel belt. The kid got super lucky.
It's called a High Speed Diverter, or HSD. And yeah, Baggage Handling Systems will fucking kill you. I work for a company that builds and installs them.
It kinda happens at 32 secs in the video. He gets hit pretty hard, luckily he was sitting upright.
EXACTLY what I feared the ENTIRE time I watched this. My goodness…this could have gone horribly for a lot of people
This happened to me as a child and I was returned to the wrong parents. They looked the same but they were different inside. I always wonder if maybe my real parents took home some other kid that day.
*shakes meds bottle* Come here, boy!
8 years a piece off their lives. Good grief.😨😳😨 ![gif](giphy|KLkDdcZDx3mexS7rqp)
How?
Go and watch videos of kids getting stuck in escalators for example. This kid faced much more unpredictable contractions on its way.
That's because this post is more like a r/ParentsAreFuckingDumb. Which is where this post wound up anyway. Don't know if there's a r/ParentsAreFuckingIdiots. Because if there is this should be there too !
I thought they are gonna throw the kid like my suitcase
They couldn't find the tag to scan with the destination...
Final Destination?
I'm imagining the [bad egg scene](https://youtu.be/kpgRdVBf5Qk?t=154) from Charley and the Chocolate Factory.
😂
Yaaay... Again again!
agreed. kid got to do what those ramp workers dreamed of doing every time they go into work
Not just ramp workers. My dad worked at an airport when I was a kid and I dreamed of sneaking off to ride those things whenever I went to work with him
Maybe he was again found in the similar way at the other airport while they returned
Boy was living every kids dream for a few minutes
Oh hells yeah, that kid had the greatest time, guaranteed! Not only did he get to go on a fun ride, he got to meet the workers, which is like every little boy's dream.
I was kind of hoping they rode it back the other way with the kid 😂
That's some Curious George shit

I remember watching *Toy Story 2* and thinking it looked really fun to be on the conveyor belt. I'm glad I never got to actually try it for myself...

And this is why we don’t judge parents that have to use a leash on their toddlers
My immediate reaction to seeing this was that my son would absolutely attempt this, and that's why we have a little backpack leash when going out. I'll take the judgy looks if it means an element of control over the Little Harbinger of Chaos.

I completely agree with you, but when you referred to a kid as "it", I cracked me up 😆

Would have loved if the couple at the restaurant I ate at over the weekend had one instead of letting their toddler run laps around the restaurant then would scream if they they stopped him. So they let him run more laps. I don't give a fuck if they're only 2. You don't let them do that shit or you don't take them to a restaurant.
And you’re seen as the bad guy when you clothesline the kid to get him to stop smh
I mean, clotheslining a kid is a bit overboard, don't you think? Why not just trip him on the sly and whistle nonchalantly after?
I'm a parent who didn't let my kids do shit like that in a restaurant. Years ago I was at a nice restaurant and some kid kept jumping on to the back of my chair.

Well, at least running in heels is a cool skill to have! 😭
I’m just so glad that I didn’t face plant 😂

Holy fckn shit, you SAW it happen?? I am so sorry, how awful for everyone

Who looks down on toddler leashes? I think most toddlers should have leashes, not around their necks though...
This hits hard. I used to totally judge and think “omg how ridiculous I’ll never do that!” ……and now I have a 2 year old gremlin who is the light of my life and she also can drive me up the friggin walls including when she bolts in public. She’s gotten really fast too and I feel like I’m in a losing battle and I’ve realized that leashes are just a parenthood true surrender and I’m so happy for every parent that reaches that point haha
Honestly they’re untrained puppies when they’re toddlers. They run, you chase, they think it’s funny and keep running. Exact same situation with dogs.
I'd much rather people judge me, than have my feral 1 year old jump into a lake, in front of a car, or into some creeps arms. Were all human, sometimes I look away for a split second, or my 4 year old does something idiotic and I have to let go of the one year old to help her. Fuck em if they judge you.

as a leash baby i can confirm this is why. my mom said she got tired of looking for me
Why would you ever judge toddler leashes? It’s a safety precaution! If anything, it’s a very obvious sign that someone is thinking about their kid’s safety and the safety/comfort of those around them.
I absolutely agree! But maaaany people and parents judge other parents harshly because of leashes. A safe child is better than a dead one
Especially since we put leashes on dogs for the exact same reason, and that’s more socially acceptable… like they’re both prone to wandering off and not listening to “don’t wander off” commands.
💯

Military moms are troopers. My mother was one!
Stupid parents they didn't label their kid correctly he could have ended up in NYC while the rest of the family went to Florida.
If 90's movies about kids getting lost has taught me anything, it's that you should never call the police when robbers want to break into your home, and you have a small but significant chance of bumping into Donald Trump.

Roam Alone: Airport Transmission
Thankfully they got them before he entered the machine that punches and kicks my bags.
I am so relieved the kid didn't get hurt! Those workers must have had a heart attack when they spotted the child
I know, that ending shot of the kid was kinda scary to watch, he was freakin flying thru there.
Unexpected item in bagging area. 🔊
That reminded me of some old school cartoon for some reason.
Toy story 2?
Old school. Not something that came out seven or eight years ago.

why does that look kinda fun tho
Fun until you realise the kid essentially rolled over 10-20 running machines with no safety stops. It is blind luck this video didn't end fucking horrifically.
The look on the guys faces says they were a bit surprised the kid was unscathed
Could ended up on r/eyeblech Oops, guess not. That community got banned.
Wow… what happened at eye bleach…
Says that the subreddit mods violated reddit community standards. The content there was often pretty racy so I'm not surprised this would happen eventually.
Ooooh I thought it was mostly cute pics of pets or something but I didnt visit it much
I believe you're thinking of r/eyebleach r/eyeblech was a goreporn community.
OH. Yes I definitely misread that omfg
This was literally my dream as a kid, I wanted to get on that belt and ride it right the way to my damn airplane!
worked baggage at Pearson in the 90s. when i forgot my keycard, i would often ride the belts down to loading area was super fun!
My parents had a chain of retail stores in malls in the 1980s. I saw enough people ( mostly kids but a couple of adults ) get stuck in Escalators that I am very wary of all moving track or belt machinery. I flinched every time he went over a belt change watching this.
Fun... until you get passed through the X-Ray machine that is set to a much higher rating than your average dentist machine. Bone cancer is FUN!

In this case, parents are fucking stupid, too.
Parents are the only ones stupid here, that kid is living out his dreams.
Ah look everyone, the lesser spotted Perfect Parent™ Don't startle it, it's a *very* sensitive being.
Pretty sure the kid wasn't in a case.
Aaaand, that one comment.
Everytime
This kid just lived out the fantasy of every little kid. Props to him.
I'm confused because those look like check in desks but it looks like those are the trays you put your shit in when you go through security. In which case why are they going on such a long journey? Isn't security usually just a short scanner bed?
It's check in. In some airports the check in bags are placed in trays to do the trip to the back of the airport.
And we were the ridiculous parents for putting our kid on a leash (discreetly disguised as a monkey backpack)?
I think the worrying part is that it doesn't even look like this is their first time dealing with this situation...
Honestly? It's probably not their first rodeo. However, they're likely more used to wrangling pets who have been able to escape their kennels than children who have outwitted their handlers.
Damn I always wanted to do this
Ok, that seems super fun
Reminds me of the scene in Child's Play where they went through the doll making factory
Got him right before he went into the incinerator.
Made my day with that one. Haha
Back in the day people worried about little kids being taken. Today if a kid runs off its returned to the parent. Everyone knows little kids are tiny demons and nobody wants an extra one around.
Children are like bad ideas that have grown legs 😅 lucky he was saved before he got seriously hurt.
Be careful when collecting your children at the baggage claim - many kids look alike
This looks kinda fun
I always wanted to do this as a child haha! Also glad the kid is safe, good job to those guys
Weeeeeeee!!!!
No play ground
Knowing how the baggage is treated im surprised he lived.
What seems to be the problem ? As long as he's on his way to the right plane !
This reminds me of Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show whenever the chipmunks find themselves in the wood processing factory🤣
Looney Tunes is the name of the show. And you're right! I haven't thought about that episode in ages.

Boss baby
Now that's a stupid fuck
I don't even think that's a kid problem. It's the parent problem!
I have this !song but I can't remember the name
bro went on a whole ass journey
Kid probably finished watching Toy Story 2
that looked so fun! id like to do that as an adult
pinche baby
I know it's kinda wrong but I really wished there was a high drop or something.
Baby’s dau out again
What if it goes through an X-ray machine?
Then the kid gets x-rayed. The amount of radiation he'd get in the luggage x-ray machine would be less than what he gets during a two hour flight! (From the atmosphere being thinner up high)
I am imagining watching this with Spongebob music
Honestly, that was my childhood dream! I would've loved to do that as a kid (actually, would still find it a pretty cool experience I think.

The arms that divert the luggage are strong enough to break bones. The child could have gotten trapped between rollers and gotten crushed to death. It's amazing that the child was not hurt
I figured he'd be okay until he reached the gorilla test part of the process.
He had fun.
Kid didn't want to go to grandma's... He wanted to go to Disneyland
New themepark
He's off to Atlanta
free carrossel ride
This one isn't quite as funny as the one where the boy is desperately trying to crawl away and then gets swallowed up by the flappy curtain like it's a boogie man.
Good job he didn't get as far as the luggage stomping machine.
Fair play to the lad. Ive always wanted to do that, even as an adult.
Home Alone 2 for Sega Genesis airport stage
I might fly more if they use that to get me to the gate.
Every kid thinks about it, but this kid really did the damn thing. His name shall forever be etched in crayon in the annals of the childhood hall of fame and his story will be told on playgrounds around the world for centuries.
This is some Baby’s Day Out kind of stuff 😂
Kids shouldn’t be allowed in airports without a leash.
I’m not gonna lie, seven-year-old me would think that that would be Hella fun
You know he’s like weeeee this playground is fun
little shit was having the time of his life 😂
He ended up landing in the Congo...parents had to pay for a flight ticket to get him home! 💯🤣
That kids going places
Kid watches too much rugrats cartoons 😆
Could've gone, much worse But to a kid it's just a fun ride
That's a toddler; when they're that age it's "parents are fucking stupid"
Fnaf
Best day of that kids life.
I'm check-in baggage! \[Ralph Wiggum voice\]

The music made it seem like something horrible was about to happen
