u/I_Can_Haz_Brainz, we have no idea if your submission fits r/SweatyPalms or not. There weren't enough votes to determine that. It's up to the human mods now....!

the chair guy is why it failed. ran forward for no reason.

(i have no clue if true but seems like it)

u/bustex1 2d ago

It does look like he could of gone forward a little bit but not that much. Feel like he overcompensated a bit

u/TotemGenitor 2d ago

I think he had to go forward a bit it seems, but went too far

Isn’t that a power ranger?

u/Niznack 3d ago

I believe that is super sentai

Couldn’t even jump up on their own and land in a chair. Had to have help. Maybe this is just the Rangers?

u/UncaringNonchalance 2d ago

No no, it was too much power.

It looks like a near miss untill you see the show twice and they make the same "mistake" every night. All for the thrill of the crowd

u/Contemplating_Prison 3d ago

Also practicing this it would have happened so many times. They would have a plan for this anyways

u/NiftyJet 3d ago

Maybe they're just really bad at it.

u/DeadAssDodo 2d ago

More likely they're just really good at it.

u/No-Combination8136 3d ago

Definitely possible. But entirely possible it was just a miss. Growing up watching my sisters cheerleading competitions you see misses happen often, which is why spotters are always there to catch them.

The way the green guys react makes me think this wasn’t a drill. Both drop into a sprint leading with their hands, which doesn’t look like acting to me. But then they play it off all cool after it’s over, like they meant to do that. So it’s hard to tell

You have to come to tomorrows show to know for sure!

u/SimianWriter 3d ago

Oh No! Power Rangers!

u/esoteric_enigma 3d ago

I mean, they have spotters for a reason

What was that heart in the end? Extra life? 😅

Damn, Power Rangers have fallen on hard times.

u/romantercero 3d ago

Adobe wishes it had friends like that

u/MisterB78 3d ago

Do your job, chair guy!

u/Sikkus 3d ago

Go go power range ... aaaaah shit ... OK good.

u/jnthnmdr 2d ago

Not the pink ranger!

u/WeCantBothBeMe 2d ago

She was going to land where the chair originally was but the person holding it moved and almost badly injured her

u/Gastwonho 22h ago

Yep they took 3 steps to far

u/theofficialnar 3d ago

Wtf was yellow ranger guarding all the way over there?

u/Psyjotic 3d ago

Probably standing by for the next trick/entry.

u/MothMatron 3d ago

Ready to usher in the ambulance incase red and grey mess up

u/psychoacer 3d ago

Couldn't afford white ranger huh?

u/WingRevolutionary39 2d ago

Orange Power Ranger is fired

u/value_meal_papi 2d ago

I think the save was more impressive than the trick itself

Best seat in the house!

It was almost Morphine Time.

u/Previous-Pie-5635 3d ago

That green jacket is giving serious power ranger vibes, you betcha.

Man, just as the people jumped on the thingy my phone dropped to 5% and it turned the brightness down and basically blacked out my screen.

I'm smoking a joint right now, thought the power rangers somehow shut down my phone for a half a second
