Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

I do, I watched it live, it was riveting.

[–]34mjf[S] 5 points6 points ago

We had people over and the whole house went silent

[–]dslicex 6 points7 points ago

I thought it was going to be watching someone die on live TV

[–]bocarter 1 point2 points ago

What was the outcome?

[–]34mjf[S] 2 points3 points ago

I forget. I know he walked away but im pretty sure he damaged his liver

[–]ethertrip 2 points3 points ago

yeah I remember something about liver damage also. that was an intense X games all around.

[–]dslicex 4 points5 points ago

I believe he walked off with minor injuries for falling as far as he did. He might have broke a bone and maybe a concussion, but he was fine as I recall.

[–]bocarter 2 points3 points ago

Wow. Looks much worse.

[–]dslicex 1 point2 points ago

Completely.

[–]Demitrius 11 points12 points ago

I love how he initially panics and starts kicking his legs but is in the air long enough to realize it's useless and just relaxes and accepts the inevitable. Way to fall fine sir.

[–]thestimp 7 points8 points ago

Going limp probably saved him broken bones, amazingly enough.

[–]GriffB 0 points1 point ago

Yeah and its helped him do a semi tuck and roll. Those parkour guys always do that, just a lot better version than he did.

[–]bigjuss 11 points12 points ago

showed this to my brother, he thought the guys feet broke off

[–]entangledup 0 points1 point ago

Same here.

[–]Kevin_Wolf 8 points9 points ago

You mean yesterday, when this was posted, too?

[–]cam155 3 points4 points ago

that was some scary shit watching this. i practically ran out of the room because i thought there was going to be lots of blood

[–]Interlope 6 points7 points ago

"I can't believe he made the 720." - Tony Hawk

[–]Cardsfan1539 2 points3 points ago

I'm glad i'm not the only one who fond that hilarious

[–]arcsesh 3 points4 points ago

Almost as funny as Sal losing his shit for Jake losing his shoes. "His shoes flew off!" I thought Dane Cook was commentating.

[–]SenatorIvy 5 points6 points ago

I remember being amazed that he hit so hard his shoes blew off, but now it occurs to me that skaters always have those big doughy shoes with the shitty un-tightened laces that make their feet look like Calvin & Hobbes feet, so I guess it's not that amazing that happened.

[–]SomethingClever-er 0 points1 point ago

This made me laugh to myself. People in coffee shop think I'm crazy.

[–]mh048t 2 points3 points ago

Walk it off

[–]kunfu11 0 points1 point ago

rub some dirt on it ya baby. There's no crying in skateboarding.

[–]alphanovember 2 points3 points ago

[–]kirby0987 1 point2 points ago

i was there, and it scared the shit out of me.

[–]Dew25 1 point2 points ago

Did he push off at the top? How'd he come back out so far?

[–]nerdyogre254 0 points1 point ago

I believe it was the bloke trying to pull that twisty-flip thing, and he pulled it out WAY too hard, and, from my memory of the Tony Hawk biography, he was "pretty much just up in the air in the middle of the pipe."

[–]Howard_Beale 1 point2 points ago

That makes my sphincter pucker up every time I see it.

[–]Dreddy 1 point2 points ago

His shoes..... just....exploded?

[–]caruiz90 0 points1 point ago

X Games 13, i watched it live.. I remember the year after when Danny Way crashed

[–]NSskier90 0 points1 point ago

That day was one of the only days I have cringed at something for looking painful

[–]stevesy3 0 points1 point ago

Was having one last drink with some friends at a bar before I moved home. No one else saw it. I literally screamed. They looked at me like I was crazy.

[–]thekind253 0 points1 point ago

I remember watching it live. I remember watching Tony Hawks 900 live too. That was a huge moment back in the day!

[–]FoxifiedNutjob -2 points-1 points ago

But pot is baaaaad, kids!

[–]TokeArtist -2 points-1 points ago

Yeah... Because that MUST have been the cause.

[–]FoxifiedNutjob 1 point2 points ago

My point is, while people are legally allowed to do the craziest, most dangerous shit in the world, smoking pot is somehow still illegal.

[–]TokeArtist 0 points1 point ago

I must apologize, I misconstrued the point you were trying to make. I totally agree.

[–]FoxifiedNutjob -3 points-2 points ago

No sweat off my back, these idiots are just asking for it...
