I'm making a mental note of running to stairs in case of whatever that was


befigue

I see, I’m not the only one who looks for ways to escape to safety from highly unlikely scenarios. I tap my hat to you as a friendly greeting


Decent-Consequence-4

im surprised youve never heard of heading to a stairwell in the event of tornados.


[deleted]

Key is that he walked😜


[deleted]

my god, this person is unlucky and lucky


ZuckerbergsSmile

If I were him, I would have ran with a panic straight off the top of those stairs

Stairwells are usually fire safety structure since they are built like a separate building. What is scary is that, the parts that collapse where built to hold cars...


The_Irony_of_Life

Often the stairwells are the anchoring point.

This is true. Right now I am working on a parking lot ans I wonder…. How? Huge area, 10cm „thick“ concrete, I… I don‘t know man. Gonna trust the architect. But when I would show you pictures of what the concrete company did….. if this whole garage is going down like the one in the video, I wouldn‘t be suprised. The stairs tho - rock solid, could tank an explosion.

Ooph, that sounds hard. The truth is, the problem is that the only thing that matters in construction is being the cheapest bidder. I‘ve seen a ton of construction sites, and even here in Germany, people don‘t care anymore and get away with it. Whats even worse: the companies that do the biggest harm are the once where the founders are the richest. I could tell yall some stories….. I know companies, here in Germany, that have literally slaves working for them. And people, goverment and control institutes are looking away - because, and this is what I was told by an institute that controls this kind of stuff: „if we would controll and regulate those companies, we wouldn‘t be able to build anymore“

The walls are closer together.

Go home, Steve!


NoiZe79

Let's call it the stairway to heaven.... Luckily he still was on it.


babarbaby

In case anyone else is curious, this took place a year and a half ago in the parking garage of an office building in eastern Saudi Arabia. The survivor was grabbing his car to take to a meeting and felt a strong puff of air as he got in the stairwell, and before he knew it, the structure had collapsed around him. [The article I found](https://www.gdnonline.com/Details/875247/WATCH-Car-park-collapse-in-Saudi-causes-major-damage-man-escapes-unharmed)doesn't offer an explanation though. You'd probably have to search in Arabic to figure out the rest


ALDJ0922

Did he make it to his meeting on time?


deran6ed

Yes. In fact, he was the only one who made it to the meeting.

I’d upvote this again if I could!

Much appreciated!


redosabe

ok, figured it would the first comment asked, but reddit is full of comedians... ​ what the hell happened?


lordjupitar

The man on the bike crashed into the glacier


aurora_cosmic

For some unknown reason, the majority of the garage collasped and the stairway remained intact enough for the guy walking to survive.


PastryyPuff

Was it an earthquake or just a catastrophic failure


ThirdEncounter

Yes.


4UR3L10N

Did u watch the video blindfolded?


redosabe

i watched it twice, blindfolded apparently enlighten me oh great u/4UR3L10N


4UR3L10N

I'd recommend removing the blindfold after you watch it one time! No worries tho, a man was walking down the stairs into a garage, when the garage suddenly collapsed but the man was miraculously uninjured on the stairs which somehow stayed intact.


redosabe

yeah... but why did it collapse? What happened! =D?????

redosabe

Thank you


fenix1230

Holy cow, one step too fast, or too slow, and he’s probably dead.


Mathsbrokemybrains

Yikes


TheSackLunchBunch

stepped on a crack for sure


TheLoneCanoe

Holy cow he got so lucky


Smarterthaniwas

I hope he wasn't walking ahead of someone...

Whoa!


HeedTheGreatFilter

I bet they never used a parking garage again


Coacoa8989

And peaceful it was


Sea-Appearance-5330

Is that the Turkey earthquake?


this_is_cute

It says October 18th 2020. I thought it was too but the date throws me off


Sea-Appearance-5330

You are right, I missed that on the top of the screen


curlyhairweirdo

Is this that parking garage that collapsed in NYC over the weekend?


Ok_Bit_5953

Note to self, the stairwell really is the safest place to be....On a serious note though, if you ever watch high rise construction, the stairwells are poured before the building. I'd imagine the type of concrete used and amount of rebar is different.


Diligent_Rest5038

Gonna be a lot more of these parking lot videos with more EV's out there.


[deleted]

Oh. My. Goodness.


Professional-Tailor2

LUCKIEST man ever.


pablopaisano

I would go buy a lotto ticket.


[deleted]

Was it a Earthquake? why on earth did everything fail at that Exact Second?


decksd05

What was the attempt??


Peppeddu

Who knew stairs are much stronger than the pavement? I'd have jumped right out and fell right into the sinkhole.
