Some people freeze in moments of huge fear or crisis. From outside perspective it looks daft but they can't help it and need a wake up call putting both people at risk if they can't snap themselves out of it

Where's her parents?

@@iverkjellkken6569 It's easy to loose your parents in a commotion like that. She was probably a little ahead sight seeing and before you know is everyone is running around in a panic. Kids get lost when shopping, in a natural disaster event like that theres always gonna be kids and even adults like that who get seperated

Where? Edit: never mind

She has an excuse. She is scared

TMoney521900 the child is obviously scared. Think of the situation. When you afraid, your often in shock, or stuck in place. And when you don’t have someone you trust or that can help, your stay.

Duo Damsel you might do that but when I’m scary it shock I run and punch 🤛....

Iafiv Iv, well they need to find a different way to end the scene, cause I'm sick and tired of seeing it in almost every feckin action or catastrophe movie!

Yes because the survival instincts over million years of evolution told us to cower in fear like that, ever heard of the flight or fight response. Also this could have been such an easy fix for the script writers to show how heroic the character is in a way that doesn't feel so contrived. I would have suspended my disbelief if the person the red coat was saving was disabled, had a broken leg hell they could have showed us that she was to slow and the red coat could have picked her up while they were both running.

TMoney521900 survival of the fittest says the child would die

this movie was filmed a decade ago

It was that high when the movie was shot

@@misguidedangel6550 lol it hasnt been that high since the 90s

Mom wasn’t very grateful was she?!

Ha

What really amazing is they all listen and do it.

Plus the " TIM HURRY!!!!!" like he was already running as FAST as he possibly could!

To be fair, there are people out there that just completely shut down when confronted with overwhelming situations. But yeah, in this scene all the people he is yelling at are already running haha

Your DAM parents

LMAO

it's always a girl!

Shit man!

it was the kids parents fault. you can never get away from parents who think their kids are throwaways. i have seen too many movies where that happens.

Mom of the Year didn't have the slightest bit of common courtesy? The mom that fled the bridge, Costanza-style, leaving her young child behind?

Thats usually how it works. Even get sued for savings someone's life nowadays

She also just left her little girl behind and ran to save her own life. Definitely mother of the year LMAO

Almost 10 years ago I was driving home from work, it was around noon and very hot. And I see a kid around 3 just running on the sidewalk with bare feet and I thought that's got to burn, what were the parents thinking. I keep driving and as an afterthought I check the rearview mirror and the kid is still running (and laughing) with no adults around. I almost kept going thinking someone is surely behind it or close by but for some reason the whole situation felt weird, so I turn the car on the curve and go next to the kid. Still no parents, no other adults and I have literally no idea what to do. I take the kid by the hand (I wasn't picking the kid up, it was clearly having a good time so the pavement wasn't that hot and I was not about to get seen with an unknown child in my arms, it's this kind of world) and decide to start ringing the house bells that were right next to us for information. Just then I hear a woman screaming. And I see her from 300-400 meters away, a woman who was half dressed, shouting and crying and trying to run as fast as she could towards us. When she finally reached us she couldn't speak, just knelt down and hugged the kid who got scared and started crying too. And through the sobs she basically said she was doing house chores and the kid was playing in the garden and suddenly she couldn't see it anymore. I'm guessing (she never said it) she must have taken a lot of time checking the house too so the kid had to be alone in the streets for at least ten minutes. She finally got back up still hugging it and left. She never said thanks, didn't ask any details, she didn't even say goodbye. So the scene in the film where the mom takes the daughter and leaves is totally realistic to me, the shock of losing someone you're supposed to take care of and then the relief that everything is ok is too much, all social interactions and conversation norms just go out of the window.

But could it collapse if the water went away? It's an arch dam after all.

@@patrickj1066 Of course it wouldn't collapse. It was made without water up against it. And it only got stronger over the decades as the concrete cured.

According to the government and the 9/11 commission, a little burning jet fuel and debris could make it collapse. just look at what it did to WTC tower 7.

@@waltersvg You're comparing apples and oranges. We weren't talking about an attack. Even so,, Hoover Dam has no exposed steel and concrete doesn't burn.

@@rogerbabson7221 You stated the same is true for concrete and steel buildings. Tower 7 wasn't attacked - it was hit by falling and burning debris.

Look it's a strong structure but that's just a load of arrogance.

Hmm…You know Giza‘s pyramid is already around for c 4600 years. Unlike Hoover Dam the pyramid is not constantly exposed to enourmous water pressure. And unlike Hoover Dam the pyramid is not relatively close to a tectonic boundary of continental plates, aka San Andreas fault. So while hopefully we we will never know, there is a good chance that you are wrong.

⁠@@TheOneMonk the Hoover damn is built more like a mountain it’s more wide then it is long and absolutely indestructible and it is true the Hoover damn will most likely be one of the longest lasting human creations the water doesn’t really mean anything I don’t think you know what you mean by water pressure. The Hoover damn was built to survive earthquakes up to 8.0 and more realistically it could handle a 9.0 the only Tectonic plate in the US that could generate that power is the Wan-De-Fuca plate off the coast of the Pacific Northwest And another thing is the Pyramids are ALOT closer to a tectonic plate boundary (the one right off the coast of the Red Sea) then the Hoover damn the pyramids of Egypt went through a 6.5 earthquake in the 1300s and were completely fine Egypt isn’t as large as you think.

It is built from man's hand. That means it will collapse over time. The only question is "when" but not "if".

If you actually went to hoover dam, thats where the strong good supports are at.

xD, Good doing indeed.

Yo Mama it's a movie

GET BEHIND THE BARRIERS GOD DAMMIT

The barriers are put into place to take advantage of the hydrodynamic law path of least resistance. In case of a catastrophic failure, the middle of the damn is destroyed releasing the water pressure and allowing the sides to stay up. Chances of survival are greatly increased when people are able to escape to the sides as opposed to the whole thing being destroyed. It has nothing to do with where the earthquake hit but how it was constructed.

Tell me about it.. I used to work there, lol.. The exterior shots are VERY accurate CGI. They even captured the employee parking lots and several of the support buildings.. Now they filmed this before I worked there, but the Public Affairs officer told me that Bay used 'guerilla tactics' to film and scan Hoover as they didn't want to obtain the permits/reserve the dam for the little amount they needed.. They sent up a drone and did their scan, then dipped lol. It's not like when he did the first Transformers movie.. He did Hoover the right way.. and no there's no museum with old ass weapons in it, lol.. But, often when leaving for the day, tourists would ask what I did there and I'd respond with 'Megatron Maintenance Crew Charlie'..

Ikr that scene in Penn Station from Armageddon freaks me out, I'm like I stood there before!

i love love love, my special trip to hover! it was awesome!!! i paid one of the guides (some money) that brought me in after hours and WOW WOW WOW!!!! they had a turbine down for maintenance and i got to go into the shell area where the gates were holding back the enormous pressure and yes, THEY WERE LEAKING - LIKE SIEVES lol - but beautiful!

How does it make sense to you, the dam is built on the mountain so if the mountain collapse, what can hold the dam?

@@mako4203 . You’re not meant to think that far or it spoils the Elmer Thud joke. The dam would likely fall like a sandwich board in a gust but the question is would it go first or second?

@@anomamos9095 that's the question xD

hoover dam is actually key-wayed into the mountain on both sides in addition it is at least a quarter circle shape towards the water so the more the water pushes on the damn the more it is wedged into the mountains.

what a shitty mom for running if without her kid

If only the mother had been as concern for her child as the guy was of his equipment!

mom sue the guy for kidnapping attempt.

You really are that thick aren't you

Not old enough to make sound decisions and likely in shock.

My point exactly

Some kids will automatically try to hide or huddle away where they feel safe. Watch some vids of children reacting to a fake fire or safety situation. Some parents think they’ve taught their kids to “do the right thing” in a dangerous situation, but when it actually happens, kids sometimes follow their instincts to hide instead of getting out of danger.

and it shows our greater humanity to rescue the helpless. beasts save themselves. tribes look out for each other. it's also why we're still here and the sabertooth s aren't.

and that kid will grow up with a need to serve, a passion for it. and enough survivors guilt to float a yacht.

It's a fucking kid if you wanna talk "nature": nature intends for adults to save them lmao

I was thinking the same thing, I would have probably left her thinking this unless I was the parent or I would have kicked her in the ass so that she runs to her mommy

What if i said the same if it was your kids or you, have you.ever even been in a dangerous situation in real life, ok i know this is just about a movie but if in real life something like this or any disaster happened would you like people to think the same about you or your kids. Because when a person panics more then likely they freeze up block themselves and don't think can't think even if they wanted to really bad.

This movie is so inaccurate anyways haha it literally has a tsunami in it that shouldn’t exist 😂

Apparently it has been hit with a 7.1 before, with little to no damage, although I don't know far away the epicenter was. That said, it is still not completely cured and won't be until the 2050s. Thats how much concrete they poured when they built it in the 30s. Crazy.
