Looked to me more like he was trying to help him by grabbing onto his belt and he was like "Fuck that, I got this"

Thats absolutely what it is. I wish there was a word for it but this comment you are replying to is this classic reddit thing where someone feels good about themselves for calling out the right thing. "The guy was told it was too dangerous and he decided to be a hero anyway"

It's not whats going on but they want it to be SO BAD

I so feel this i was on a ladder on the 4th floor installing a wifi spot (without safty gear, OSHA etc bla bla) And my boss decided the safest way was to try to hold me from the closest window. I told him to get the fuck off it was so limiting.

If i would have fallen he would have gone with me strait out that window better let get one worker get injured if shit hit's the fan
