ah.. the memories of climbing the wall as a kid

[–]RationalMonkey 7 points8 points ago

Right? I miss being that agile.

[–]ZK419 13 points14 points ago

..What was he knocking off that vent?

[–]petler477 9 points10 points ago

If it was a spider... shudder

[–]holladoub[!] 3 points4 points ago

NOPE

[–]five_argyle_sox 8 points9 points ago

his parents stuck a couple lollipops in the vent for the kids to "fetch".

In the full video, you first see his sister doing the same thing...in fact, at the very start of this gif you can see her unwrapping the candy she just retrieved.

[–]BamBangBrady 3 points4 points ago

What kind of sick, cruel bastards put lollipops out of reach?! Bless you, spiderkid, for giving your parents the middle finger. I salute you.

[–]bear020215 0 points1 point ago

i would do it :D

[–]BamBangBrady 1 point2 points ago

Bring your cats.

[–]mufasabyproxy 5 points6 points ago

He must have obscene upper arm strength. As I assume we don't accept the premise that he is in fact a 'Spiderkid'

[–]Enginerdiest 12 points13 points ago

No, just an obscene strength to weight ratio. Strength grows as the cross sectional area of muscles, but weight grows as the volume. When organisms get bigger the weight outpaces strength. Ever notice how little kids squat when they're playing? Full-on all the way to the ground like its nothing. Ask an adult to do that. It's not as easy.

Interestingly, this is also why the largest organisms can be found in the oceans. Buoyancy offsets the weight of the creature, allowing their skeleton to support much more mass.

Thank you Science!

[–]Annie225 9 points10 points ago

Spider kid! Spider kid! Does whatever a spider kid does!

[–]smokeydesperado 7 points8 points ago

Can he swing from a web, no he can't cause he's a kid.

[–]MFWsaved 1 point2 points ago

Look out! It's spider kid!

[–]Scryer_ 4 points5 points ago

IDK... His hands and movement were more chameleon-like...

[–]t3fish 6 points7 points ago

Keep an eye out for Jaime Lannisters.

[–]drunxor 1 point2 points ago

[–]Melissapants 1 point2 points ago

I used to do this for fun, but with a foot and hand on each side of the door frame. One day I fell and bit through my tongue. I don't climb door frames anymore, but my tongue is oddly bendy. That is all.

[–]KingOCarrotFlowers 2 points3 points ago

If he does that much, sooner or later, some pretty-boy is going to throw him off of a tower just because he accidentally saw some incest.

[–]BamBangBrady 1 point2 points ago

Is there a reference here, or.. Was that just a fucking weird thought?

[–]wOlfLisK 0 points1 point ago

Game of Thrones

[–]BamBangBrady 0 points1 point ago

Ahh. That clears that matter up.

[–]QuillJS 0 points1 point ago

Future free runner.

[–]Chachoregard 0 points1 point ago

A.D.D.kid

FTFY

[–]mycomputersaidkill 0 points1 point ago

I used to do this all the time.

[–]Jasnigan 0 points1 point ago

I thought that piece of candy was a spider at first. NOPE.

[–]AwesomeLlama 0 points1 point ago

Me too until I saw the video. It looked like it reacted when he touched it though.

[–]kag6 0 points1 point ago

how the fickenfrack does this get 500+ ?

[–]bear020215 0 points1 point ago

i remember this shit as a kid, and i still do it,

[–]theredheadbrenna 0 points1 point ago

Is your child also swift as the coursing river? Or perhaps possesses the force of a great typhoon?

[–]Disco_Drew -5 points-4 points ago

Those parents are fucked.

[–]growlingbear 2 points3 points ago

That's how they became parents...Tad dum tsh.

[–]Arash310 -1 points0 points ago

Spider kids spider kid.. Does whatever spiderkid wants

[–]peterjolly -1 points0 points ago

More like Demonkid.

[–]Xysten -1 points0 points ago

His power to weight ratio must be pretty damn good.

[–]Sp4rtaN25 -1 points0 points ago

Why doesn't this have more up votes it's almost too epic!

[–]LeviW 2 points3 points ago

Cause it's really old.
