Was she running with her eyes clothes? Thank goodness for the vest.

It's just normal child depth perception, very helpful for their development. Especially when occuring a catastrophic failure afterwards like falling in water.

I'm guessing she felt like she was running SO fast that she fully expected to fly all the way into the pool

eyes don't wear clothes, dummy

Maybe contact lenses and glasses could be considered eye clothing... But I'm assuming this kid's eyes were nude

Thank goodness for the vest
I'm not sure what good the vest did lol
Seems like she stood up straight at the very end
She's definitely not in the deep end
And I think the water was the least of her problems

It did give her some padding when her torso hit the edge of the pool.

Yeah a LOT of padding, I imagine that would've hurt like a motherfucker and possibly bruised/cracked a rib if she wasn't wearing a vest

You're thinking like an old person. Children spring back from EVERYTHING. I watched my cousins kid run full speed into a solid wood door, bounce his face off of it, say "woops" and then, before any adults could react, he backed up and proceed to sprint into it again, face first, like it would somehow work the second time. Same result. We had to physically stop him from trying a third time (this displeased the child). Children are invincible to their own machinations. Side note, I believe through sheer power of will, he would have eventually gotten through that door. His dad was not willing to test the hypothesis, however, so we will never know.

Like 98% of the damage went to the knees
Definitely wouldn't have been any severe damage to the ribs according to your comment
If you watch the video all the damage goes into the knees and then she just kind of falls over

u/not_kismet 4d ago
Yeah I rewatched the video after commenting and realized she didn't fall very hard. I just didn't care enough to edit my comment.

I finally realized I was old when they popped back up and acted like they didn't just slam their knees into concrete.

Presentation wasn't there. I'll give her a 3.5 just for the attempt. She did make it in the water

This is like my niece who would run full speed and jump off the edge of the pool as a 4 year old, but then panic as she would use the stairs to get out of the pool.... that being the dangerous part of course....lol.
