Looks like his partner tries to talk him out of trying to save the dude and he was like “Fuck that, I got this “

He probably was focused as hell and was like “don’t distract me here man fuck off”

There’s a fuck off in the end if you look closely. And bro was locked in for sure

"Fuck you, I'm ready to go home after this shift"

My man's calculation was correct and he saved a life

This is what heroes do, but they don't realize it because they have ulterior motivation

Didn't want to end the day with paperwork

There was probably still paperwork.

There is/was. But not as much

Because he was a high diver off the cliffs of La Quebrada

Usually when a scenario turns out fine the paperwork is basically filling out all of the blank spots and then a statement that goes something like “received the call at X time, proceeded to Y location, Z scenario was occurring, tackled that dude off the bridge, EMS took over”. It can get done pretty quickly.

Oh god you are just reminding me of the police departments that want to use AI to help them fill out those forms. GREAT idea.

I think there was massive public backlash so they didn't do it, but I can't believe they even asked.

Yep but now the partner has to write up the report while he gets to take a nap lol

These assholes probably have AI doing ALL their paperwork.

And the person probably just jumped the next day anyway.

Testimonies of people who jumped and lived say otherwise.

Hermano pulled off some Rey Mysterio shit. Badass. After that it was a quick three taps and he won the match.

"I've only got two days to go to retirement too...".

"Actually, HR called. They miscalculated. They say it's 2973 days now".

"...Fuck it, I'ma gonna jump on him!"

I think that's damn near everyone's motive.

No, it was a joke. Most people care about others and they aren't selfish psychopaths. Greed is not human nature, capitalists lied to you.

u/riveramblnc 1d ago

And my response was a continuation of the joke. Chill the fuck out.

As a suicidal person who has tried committing suicide before, believe me, that man probably doesn't see the officer as a hero here.

u/dogs-design-dslr 1d ago

But for those that love him, the officer is more than a hero to them

The guy was like: shut it man, that’s my job and Ima do it. Don’t get in the way.

We need so much more of this. In all sectors, services and goods.
