There seriously has to be more to this..like another poster previously stated, maybe they were drunk?
I mean, what was the wife thinking as she led her husband to the hole she helped dig? She knew about the hole, yet she get owned by it.
Furthermore, since she had full knowledge of the prank, did the wife seriously expect the husband to be unscathed after such a long and unexpected fall? I know the friends are somewhat at fault here, but what surprises me more are the actions of the dude's spouse.
Some birthday.

i dont think people realize that the wife, Risa, was also in on the prank because she helped dig the hole. i dont know if she meant to bring the husband there that day or they were taking a normal walk along the beach and fell into it before the intended day.

I don't see why the prank was that stupid It seems like a good idea to me. Have a couple fall into a 8 foot hole which causes a short period of fear.

It's too bad that it ended so badly I'm sure the friends will feel horrible for the rest of their lives.

I'm not sure why people are acting like an 8 foot hole is that massive... also it was 8 foot square... seriously I don't even fucking understand how they died, it seems the friends were careful about it. Also people are acting ridiculous saying this shit is ridiculous, I find most of these posts hypocritical saying how ridiculous / retarded the prank was. Since it really isn't.

How is the fact that they both died insufficient evidence for you that it was an extremely dangerous prank? Are you really this stupid or just trolling hard? You also don't seem to understand the definition of "hypocritical".


LOL nice, how do you have 2300 posts again? I assumed you were new to these forums at first but now I don't know what to think. You really think calling me names is the right thing to do?

Guess what buddy you can poke your eye out with a pencil, is that sufficient evidence that pencils are very dangerous? Jesus fucking christ it was a fucking fluke that they died considering how they made the hole wide.

Oh and by the way, every single post on an 8 page thread saying this is the "stupidest prank of all time I can't believe how retarded humanity is, I would never do something so illogical!" is pretty fucking hypocritical kid. I could argue it's more retarded and hypocritical how people are overreacting and acting like they would never pull a stunt like this, when in all likelihood the majority of this forum is no smarter than they are. I could also argue the fact that the majority of this community would rather target balance and blame it rather than make the realization that they could of played better.

The fact that you called me out saying I'm "stupid" and "don't seem to understand the definition of 'hypocritical'" reflects the self doubt of your own intelligence. Stop trying to ride your high horse of elitism.

Jumping into your guys' fight.. but dude... its fucking 8.5 feet deep, thats not a fluke, thats just fucking retarded - 1m deep would have had just the same comical effect.

I agree with this. Lots of posters on this website are pretty stupid but think they're some smart shit, whereas only a handful of people are genuinely smart.

But I'm not sure if it's a fluke they died. This prank wasn't professionally done and the consequences was clearly a disaster. The safety of this prank when they thought of it was definitely leaning towards the dangerous side.

1. How in the hell could you even dig 8.5 feet deep? I can only dig a foot deep before the sand just starts to fall back in. :p
2. Imagine how the people that dug it would feel. I can only imagine they'll feel horrible for the rest of their own lives.
3. They died from suffocation, possibly the slowest and worst way to die. This just gets worse and worse as you read on.

Ugh, people really suck sometimes.

Dude it's 2.5 meter deep hole, it could easily kill someone and unsurprisingly it killed them both.

Exactly. And it's one thing to say, jump down two meters (still tall and potentially dangerous) but another thing altogether to fall down and not be prepared for the fall. I don't understand how anyone would put so much time into something like this and NOT realize the dangerous implications.

It doesn't take someone intelligent to understand that digging a 9 foot hole in sand for people to fall in with no one around to immediately assist them if something goes wrong is fucking stupid.

If you have time to dig a hole that big and wide in sand, you have time to think about the implications.

Why 2.5 metres? 1-1.5 metres would have been way safer. I don't get what's so funny about falling down a hole btw. Maybe the friends said "go there and fetch something" so the couple would fall down??? Such tragedy...

Didn't some kid almost die from getting stuck in a hole at the beach just like a month ago?

Honestly the idea seems stupid, but I suppose it's all easy to overlook if you count in group mentality. Oh well, if the couple shared the same IQ as their friends the world didn't lose that much, we are an over populated planet anyways, nothing too special about two people dying.

jumping down an 8 foot hole != walking into an 8 foot hole.

Yes, I could jump down an 8 foot hole and not do any damage to myself, but walking in the dark blindly into an 8 foot ledge would fuck anybody up, and if you don't think so then you are lying.

As for DYING from that fall, I don't know. Suffocation seems like an odd way to die from a fall, did the sand like fall back on top of them when they died? Maybe they both broke their necks from the fall and could not turn themselves over after they fell into the hole and died as a result? No idea

How many times have we pushed our friends into a pool? All fun and games until someone hits their head on the side of the concrete and dies/gets paralyzed. Generally, there are no safe pranks.

unless they put a ton of sand ontop of the mat, i dont see how this could have done anything, then again 2.5m is really fucking high, how did people dig a hole that size on a public beach with shovels...

I'll agree that not having someone there was probably the dumbest part. I guess since they suffocated it's reasonable to say that the situation was dangerous.

If anything the main point I was arguing was because I was surprised at peoples reactions, as Tasteless would say "It's ruining esports! (super serious nerd syndrome)" is what concerned me most about the mentality of this thread. Glad some people agreed with me on that.

Really can't help but try to think why anyone would find this to be a "good prank".....at best they fall and hurt themselves at worse they die a slow death to suffocation...
