I don't understand if she's too old/frail or if it's genuinely difficult to get up, I've never fallen like that and I'm not into experimenting

I used to Ive in China and people there are surprisingly bad at using their bodies. Like for some reason people think China is full of people who are martial artists and brilliant acrobats, but that is an incredibly small percent of the population. I mean you've seen countless videos on gore sites I'm sure, but the complete and utter lack of awareness for themselves and their surroundings cause thousands of accidents a day. Like this woman is obviously old, but I guarantee you won't see some old lady from Germany or Brazil being so criminally incapable of moving her own two fucking feet.

I think I have an idea of what you mean.

I used to live in Brooklyn, and every time I’d go into the city (Chinatown specifically) to buy certain Asian groceries, I’d notice an egregious lack of spatial awareness amongst a strong degree of the Chinese in that area, almost to the point that I’d swear they were actually just dumb NPCs programmed to keep softly moving in any one specific direction until they bump into something, only to momentarily stop and begin the cycle all over in a different direction.

I too came to that realization on my own, that these people at large are likely of average IQ at best. I remember frequently questioning ‘Asian brilliance’ in general, often wondering if it’s far more of a Japanese and/Korean thing, because I didn’t see it at all in so many of those Chinese folk I came across.

Chinese people cant even walk around in hallways. Theyre either on the wrong side, randomly stopping right infront of you or standing in a row blocking the hall. They will actually walk directly into you like they had no idea you were there.

Fucking cringe lol. Somehow managed to squeeze anti-Asian racism AND korean-weeb fanboy into a single idea.

It’s named Chinatown so all Asians are automatically Chinese!

China developing too fast and most of the people there (especially old people) never seen/used anything in their entire life , so it doesn’t surprise me to see an old people don’t know how to use escalator .

What surprised me is my father once told me he had a friend who married a Chinese women who never saw a toilet bowl . 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽

One of the most stupid comments I've read. This could happen in any country in the world.

I can’t believe this is so highly upvoted. All old people loose their sense of balance. It becomes natural reaction to grab on to things, to try to become stable. ALL old people do this.

If you worked with any 90+ year olds, you have experience dealing with this. They don’t like being picked up to be moved, they feel like they are faking. They freak out and grip the nearest thing they can. You have to tel them “I’m picking you up”, “if you grab in to things I won’t be able to pick you up”, “if you do not listen I have to leave you here for 10 mins”.

Here you have an old lady who has lost her balance, but not her walking quite yet. She falls, as to be expected, and she starts gripping everything in sight, which happens to be a non Moving part of the escalator. It keeps flipping her. Yes it’s her fault. She’s old and that’s how old people behave.

Chinese may be total idiots. I’m not arguing that. But this is due to being old, I have worked with lost of people where the same thing would happen if they were allowed out of the house
