      Everybody here is making fun of her. A comment that is 2-3 comments above yours, has thousands of likes and 100s are calling her useless and such. She held him up and called for help. What else to do on a solemn ceremony being broadcasted?
      They are calling her trans with the face of a man and body of a woman.

      Can attest to something similar to this. I have a weird tendency to laugh when I hear (or have to break) terrible news. One example is that one of my regulars at work was off grid around the few days that Kobe Bryant died. We're both sports nuts, so I could tell that when he came in and neither of us mentioned it, he didn't know. When I told him, I began to giggle like a fucking idiot. It was purely physical because there was nothing remotely funny about breaking that news.

      Axel Smith She didn’t need to do anything though, it was just some random person in the background. Like I said, the person in the video laughing made sense, as they guy was basically falling in him and she didn’t know what to do, and she had the typical quite laughter that indicates nervousness. But the person in the crowd laughed obnoxiously loud. Sure, it could have been from nervousness, but it still came across as weird.

      We all deserve to go to hell because we have sinned. But God loved us and gave us His Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross in our place to pay the punishment of all of our sins for us when he died on the cross. Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and yet God the Son also. God the Father (God)has raised Jesus his son from the dead. JESUS IS COMING AGAIN!!!! Repent of your sins, and believe in who Jesus is and what He did for you and that God the Father has raised Him from the dead and you WILL BE SAVED FROM THE LAKE OF FIRE(hell).
      Sinner’s prayer
      Lord, I know I’m a sinner, I believe that you died on the cross in my place of burning in hell forever so I wouldn’t have to go to hell. I accept your sacrifice for me. Please save me from the lake of fire and forgive my sins. Thank you for the gift of eternal life!
      Amen.
      Now turn from your wicked ways towards Jesus Christ and surrender your life to Him!

      @styleroler5816 2 года назад +227

      @@jordanbrock8199 they're not locking their knees and remaining completely still. The human body is not designed to stand without moving. Standing requires the heart to pump the blood much harder, and that requires some level of physical exertion to increase heart rate. Something as little as shaking your leg or moving your hands can often be more than enough, but standing completely still without any kind of body readjustments can be extremely dangerous. This is well known in the military, which is why for instance soldiers on guard duty regularly march back and forth a few feet every couple of minutes. This is intentional to give the body the ability to increase the blood flow and decrease the risk of fainting. Standing completely still at attention for instance is usually the worst situation you can be in when it comes to this risk. When it comes to super market store workers, yes they are standing, but I think for obvious reasons you can understand that they are not standing completely still. It is your natural instinct to move, and you're not gonna do it without intentionally making an effort not yo move.
