They're lucky they're not eligible for a Darwin award from doing this.

u/Marley9391 1d ago

Their choice to do this, however, shows potential for receiving one in the future.

Car wash chemicals could be unsafe for long-term skin exposure

u/Airplade 1d ago

Hey - They're young and don't yet understand how the Darwin Award is earned. I'm expecting these young ladies to one day get OF accounts before they film themselves falling 23 stories while doing a handstand on their hotel balcony in Miami.

You are a philosopher

I can't tell you how many times I hear that every single day!

u/starrpamph 1d ago

You are a philosopher, Harry

u/Airplade 1d ago

So what you're actually saying is that I'm deeply interested in exploring profound questions about the nature of reality, existence, knowledge, morality, and the human condition, approaching them with a critical and analytical lens, seeking to understand the underlying principles and meaning behind our experiences in the world?

Is that what you're trying to say to me?

u/StaxxGod 23h ago

Can I get that in Haiku form?

u/Airplade 22h ago

As much as I'd love to indulge your request, I'm not sure my hypothesis could be shorter than a typical Netflix series. I'm developing it into a screenplay at the moment.

u/Hurricanemasta 15h ago

Videos like this are, of course, for the potential clicks. But really, they're just bootleg 'Jackass' without the charisma, or talent, or production values.

They’re lucky they still have skin on their bones lol

OMG yes, this too should be first, scary when reality smacks hard

u/The-Bloody9 1d ago

Welp. Hope they didn't lose any eyes.

u/Superb-Pattern-1253 1d ago edited 1d ago

i use to work at a car wash. it was full service but unless you paid for a handwash we ran the cars threw the machine first. coming from someone that routinely had to walk threw these while they were going. (we had an access route on the side where you would get wet from mist but not in any real danger) i can tell you doing this is extremely stupid and they are super lucky

18

u/expose_the_flaw 1d ago

Same. Worked in a car wash tunnel. This is plain stupidity

u/ashkiller14 1h ago

Im assuming youre not a native speaker, but it's through.

u/OldAnxiety 1d ago

Actually you can die from pressured water into you, basically you get water injected into you and it fucks up your meat

18

u/Airplade 22h ago

You're absolutely correct. "It fucks up your meat." That's putting it as direct & blunt as possible. 👍

u/SixtyNineFlavours 1d ago

Yeah they probably put shampoo in the car wash not corrosive chemicals.

-15

u/SarahPallorMortis 1d ago

How? It’s two random teens. And that would probably destroy the machine. You can’t just run whatever thru random pipes. It could clog and back up.

8

u/ebiburga 1d ago

Pretty sure this was sarcasm/snark pointing out the stupidity of the teens. Not saying they actually put shampoo in there.

-10

u/SarahPallorMortis 1d ago

I hope so

u/grownadult 1d ago

This is so unsafe.

u/WeakDiaphragm 1d ago

Just... why?

u/iidesune 1d ago

You ask why.

They apparently ask why not?

4

u/LeslieJaye419 18h ago

Because some people are desperate for attention, but don’t have the talent or creativity to actually earn it, so they act like idiots and do the stupidest shit they can imagine because that’s easier.

u/Suspicious-End5369 1d ago

A little water won't hurt them.... moving industrial equipment on the other hand might.

u/Lil_b00zer 1d ago

Those jets are fucking powerful.

u/iidesune 1d ago

My kitchen faucet is a little water.

Those are basically fire hoses. And it definitely hurts.

4

u/Suspicious-End5369 1d ago

It was a joke, but they're not that bad. You can get pressure washers that will cut your toe off, but normally, carwashes aren't too strong because you can strip paint if there's a rock chip or something.

2

u/Leonydas13 1d ago

Those jetwash places actually have warning signs not to use them if you have chips in your paint.

1

u/grownadult 19h ago

This is untrue. Pressurized water can cause permanent nerve damage. It can also cause skin to be broken, which if left untreated can lead to infection and worst case, amputation. It’s called a high pressure injection injury.

u/ShaminderDulai 1d ago

The same as it always was.

Views = influence, money, fame. What they don’t realize is that just how many views it takes to get $1, how fame is fleeting and how broke and miserable influencers really are. For very Mr Beast, there’s 10,000 people who don’t make it anywhere and some who wish they didn’t create cringy media that will follow them with every new google search.

I hope they know that herpes don’t go away like this

u/SheWantsTheDan 1d ago

Definitely wasn't their first time getting hosed down like this lmfao

u/Airplade 1d ago

I think I know why they would do that

u/DasUbersoldat_ 1d ago

Can we just take social media away from these kids?

2

u/Zesty__Potato 16h ago

Yes, the parents certainly had that choice.

u/neverleavingvegas 1d ago

I mean to be fair if you are going to do that you might as well film it…

u/Airplade 22h ago

🤣👍

u/Javen_Lab 1d ago

When your family owns a car wash and you want to be a content creator.

1

u/Airplade 22h ago

Exactly my thoughts. Because this shit wouldn't fly at any robot car wash that I've ever been to. Those girls are sisters and their family member owns the car wash.

u/HorusDidntSeyIsh 1d ago

I'm gonna go against the grain here and say that as a 40.year old male who has done possibly dumber shit than this, thank you!

2

u/Independent_Tie_4984 11h ago

Yeah, I did a lot dumber shit than this pre-internet just for the hell of it.

u/dac3062 1d ago

I about lasered my toe off with a pressure washer and this is giving me the ptsd

u/DJScopeSOFM 22h ago

This could've been a final destination type accident.

u/Blue-Turtle1 1d ago

Why would they do that you ask? Well, this car wash is the perfect boyfriend-experience-machine

u/Dark-Push 1d ago

Stupid is the word that comes to mind

Dumb as fuck! This is what kids do for fun nowadays?

Fucking twats

u/Leonydas13 1d ago

Boys do this: “oh my god what dickheads, that’s so dumb. Boys will be boys, lucky they didn’t get hurt!”

Girls do this: “Oh my god it’s all for attention, what stupid whores, insert inappropriate sexual comment, they’re doing it for onlyfans.”

I’m so lucky to be a bloke.

u/Junebugvandamme 1d ago

They must have smelled AMAZING afterwards. It definitely looked like that one girl got a "Public Enema" on the second pass.

u/3lm312 1d ago

So, reading a book wasn't an option?

u/malachiconstant76 1d ago

And the car is still dirty.

Now the car’s going to have dirty spots god damn it!!!

u/nyehu09 13h ago

Clearly they haven’t seen Final Destination 4…

1

u/Shalom_pkn 13h ago

Same girls will buy the most expensive shampoose for their hairs and have a 20 step hair care routine.

Then their hair gets washed buy car soap.

1

u/GamingSince1998 12h ago

This reminds me of that car wash scene from that Hilary Duff movie "A Cinderella Story" where her stepsisters were fighting in a car wash. At least THAT was a movie.

Pretty similar outcome here though lol.

u/Das_Badger12 11h ago

Someone didn't see that Final Destination movie

u/Evo-Guy 8h ago

They are just Dirty.

u/Suckamanhwewhuuut 8h ago

Because we have become the documentary Idiocracy. Its becoming painful to have to see on a pretty much daily basis.

u/dgdgdgdgdg333 6h ago

I don’t know what the hate is. They are just trying to get rid of some fishy smells.

u/enjaysm 6h ago

Do i smell hot clams and pork rinds?

u/glorfindelgotscrewed 5h ago

The next person in wondered why they smelled baked fish....

u/Low_Presentation8149 4h ago

It's definitely illegal and is printed all over the external part of the car wash

u/Ok-Nose3258 3h ago

How long they haven’t showered?

There is a reason why the term Brainrot is pretty spot on

u/IHaveABigDuvet 1d ago

Kinda looks like fun tbh.

u/andrenichrome 1d ago

This is not ‘iammaincharacter’. This is fun albeit potentially fatal. Good on them.

u/crayzeejew 1d ago

I dont think they understand the concept of a wet-t shirt car wash

u/ronnietea 1d ago

I can’t see anything going wrong not one slip

u/nlamber5 1d ago

I like the concept not the execution.

u/No_Welder_1043 1d ago

So they can complain and make a fuss to get compensation.

Can we shame on stupid things in public like this?

I'm tired seeing dumb people getting viral for doing things that should have been shamed
