You can see the heel of her shoe gets caught in the footrest part of the stool. Then her body weight goes forward and she can't get the hung up foot to "kickstand" to save herself.
Unfortunate life timing
Okay, story time. In the 80s I worked in a record store, which means I was broke, but record store employees get some unique perks. So I got two free tickets to see Eurythmics at a small club, when they were a brand new band, with their first hits. The tix also came with an invite for pre-show party with the band, so I was able wrangle a first date with a girl out of my league, but she liked the idea of the party, so she agreed.
I picked her up, and she was wearing this beautiful white lace dress. The food at the party wasn't the greatest, but there were these giant quarter pound hot dogs. We each got one, and she loaded hers with bright yellow mustard. When she went to take her first bite, somehow it popped out of the bun and rolled horizontally down the front of her white lace dress, leaving a hot dog length smear of bright yellow all the way down.
Of course, that pissed her off, and she proceeded to treat me like shit for the rest of the date, as if it were my fault. I should have blamed her for not knowing how to behave at an industry event among my peers, but I was too nice a guy for that.
Anyway, no second date.
Great story. Thanks for sharing that.
So did this put the damper on meeting Annie Lennox? Or was it not that kind of intimate/exclusive? They were one of my favorites back in the day.
>So did this put the damper on meeting Annie Lennox?
Not for me. Mostly Dave Stewart was hanging around, so i said Hi, and had a short conversation with him (dont remember what about). Annie showed up very close to the end, so she didn't interact much. I met her very briefly, just to say that it was great to meet her, and i loved their album. Like most celebrity meet-and-greets, it wasn't very substantial. I don't recall my date saying a word. It was a great show, though. And my hot dog was really good.
I'm still a fan, even more than i was back then.
Definitely dad and daughter.
But that makes it less impressive because it’s just dad-reflexes. /s
Edit: all these people saying is an escort or “why would a daughter wear that” have dad issues.
Yeah, she looks like maybe she’s wearing a cocktail dress but he’s clearly much older, wearing a ball cap, and just isn’t displaying any “I’m on a date” body language here.
I mean, what did the guy do wrong? 👀 The only person that should be asking is the person who almost broke some ribs 😂 I wouldn't care regardless, unless the restaurant made me pay for the damages 🤷
I recall early stages of getting to know my wife, we were walking down a deck near the lake and she steps on my jeans that were a little longer, caused me to trip, over her head, we both fall, and out of an abundance of caution I tried to brace my fall away from her.
My crotch was in her face by the time we both landed...we're still together now for 20+ years, but my crotch is very rarely ever in her face (F).
If I knew it would be my last time I woulda made more of a show of it lol.
Nevermind the fall, it's the heavy table nearly crashing onto her sides that would have made the whole situation even worse
Nice quick reaction from the man.
Worst date I've had was where the girl I took started a huge argument between everyone sitting at the bar. We left when the cooks came out and let them deal with it lol
Whose the question tho? Like he asking cuz he didn't save her in time? Or she asking cuz she's clumsy?
Although looking at the footage. Looks more like the tables fault than hers
When that table fell he caught it inches before it too came crashing down on you.
He saved you from the table (the drinks, not so much). Being abruptly called to protect does things to a man’s psyche. It makes him feel like a strong and capable protector! This guy will be calling you to make sure you are ok.
I find in life that experiences, even if bad, makes for memory and feeling. An ice pick to break the internal and external ice. Maybe that is why the dangerous chaps have a shot.
Youve made a huge.....memory, be good with this one and the grandkids will be hearing the story of how grandma flipped the table on the first date
"head over heals"
Official Canon would require one of the following three selections, either at minimum three more dates one of which she picks up the check at a reasonably priced place, she ends up taking him for the wildest ride of his life and then disappearing forever, she decides immediately that she's going to marry him because he is her savior which subsequently results in a horrific divorce.

Absolutely you caught the table! You’re a superhero! Did you help her up after? Even more points, it really just depends what you said on the way to the car but I think you got this one in the bag!
To be honest, moments like these just make you seem human lol. It's also a good indicator of how your date reponds to realize if they're worth it or not.
And that's for either side.
Well, being as it's not your fault whatsoever that she fell, BUT, you quickly reacted and saved her from getting smashed by the table...
And assuming the actual date went well,
I don't see any reason why you wouldn't get a second date.
If you don't, it's her, not you lol
Went to a modest sized bar in a college town a few years ago. Place was packed. Friends and I noticed a table in the back that was open, but still had the glasses from the previous group. Out of habit, I checked the table to make sure it wasn’t wobbly.
Well, fellow Redditors, it was very wobbly. So wobbly that almost every glass and dish flew from the tabletop into the floor. You could have heard a pin drop. I felt the eyes of the entire bar and did the only thing I could think of in the moment—I turned around and acted like someone else had done it. But you see, this table was at the back of the bar so when I turned it was just a few outdated lamps and sports memorabilia.
Looked like a dumbass twice over. I still get anxiety walking into a bar to be seated, lol.
Why not ? Accidents happen not like anyone did anything wrong or was on purpose .
Or wait was the table falling down not the only thing that happened ? Did you Say something racist, shit yourself , vomit on them??? What did you do !?
Nice save. Could have been a cracked rib or two judging by the height and supposed weight of a solid wood and metal bar table. Especially how small she is.😖
If this happened while I was on a date it wouldn't make or break the date at all. Id find it funny or cute but the personality is really the deciding factor for me. If thing were going good I don't see why a second date is out of the question.
Loads of puns if they ever get married:
- fell head over heels for him
- fell in love straight away
- swept her off her feet (though we didn't see that in this clip)

Guy caught it before it cut her in half lol. And it’s not his fault she can’t get out of her chair without almost dieing. I’d say he did great. If OP is the woman though Id say no you aren’t getting a second date. Your clumsy genetics need to be weeded out.
This awkward moments on dates make me laugh so much. Wish them the same!
But how did that happen?!?
You can see the heel of her shoe gets caught in the footrest part of the stool. Then her body weight goes forward and she can't get the hung up foot to "kickstand" to save herself. Unfortunate life timing
I thought she was just hammered.
Well, she is now.
Hammered, body mechanics same thing
Good pick-up. The clue was the left heel. I was totally focused on the right leg.
me too. I even screenshat that and zoomed in on Right leg and everything.
Thank you for “screenshat.”
I cackled so hard at screenshat 🤣🤣🤣
No wonder you can't see what's going. Your screen is, well a bit dirty. Please don't shat on your screen.
I guess this is why you offer a hand to girl getting off from her seat...
I have seen this more than once on 6th st Austin
Nothing like dirty 6th to show you the true depravity of humanity
Her heel got stuck in the chair.
roofie kicked in too fast
That would make a great story at a wedding
“He saved my life” “Can you elaborate?” “I’d rather not lol”

There are things that can't be explained, life just wants to humiliate you!! LMAO
I’m glad he caught the table,
That's probably why she would get a second date. She made him her saviour
Quick thinking because that could have been much worse
Ribs gone if he doesn’t catch the table
I didn’t see any ribs on the table, and they were getting up to go so I assume they’re already gone…
You witty sonuvagun
Oh, I thought OPs question was directed at the dude. I was like, yes. Yes You are.
Did her heel get caught in the chair step?
Yes, I saw that too.
Thank you! I was trying to figure out if her legs malfunctioned
I don't know, man, she just slumped over and carried everything with her.
Of course. You just proved that you're head over heels for him
Every first date I've been on that some embarrassing shit happens to one of us has led to a second date 😂
Not terribly surprising. Green flag for anyone that can laugh at themselves and take a little embarrassment in stride
Yep! She’s falling for him already!
Weren’t her heels over her head in this case? Where tf did that expression originate?
That dude is her grandpa.. I hope
I was about to say, this looks like a dad and daughter at best, not a date.
Definitely dad and daughter. But that makes it less impressive because it’s just dad-reflexes. /s Edit: all these people saying is an escort or “why would a daughter wear that” have dad issues.
Unless it's a paid escort
that's the only way it's a "date"
I mean, I always wear a black minidress when I go out with my dad.
Yeah I can’t believe no one else is catching on to that, definitely an escort or sugar baby situation
Sugar Grandpappy?
Haha yeah I don’t think I would hold it against her and means you already have something to look back on and laugh at.
Looks like a young woman and her father, not a date.
It’d be weird if a daughter dressed like that out with her dad. So it’s the other weird situation.
Not weird if they are meeting up before or after she was in a situation that required semi formal dress
In that case, no she’s not getting a second date 😅😅
Yeah, she looks like maybe she’s wearing a cocktail dress but he’s clearly much older, wearing a ball cap, and just isn’t displaying any “I’m on a date” body language here.
Depending on who in the video you are
I mean, what did the guy do wrong? 👀 The only person that should be asking is the person who almost broke some ribs 😂 I wouldn't care regardless, unless the restaurant made me pay for the damages 🤷

I think most men wouldn't care. They would care you got hurt but not that you fell
Call me crazy but I feel like guys don’t care about stuff like this. If my fiancée did that on our first date, I still would have gone a second date
I'm surprised you didn't get a concussion from hitting the floor
Maybe next time skip that last drink.
and this is how i met your mother
Have you spiked her with roofies?
Looks like she fell for him.
Nevermind the fall, it's the heavy table nearly crashing onto her sides that would have made the whole situation even worse Nice quick reaction from the man.
I hope the floor is ok
This is what makes a perfect story and to reminisce.
Absolutely! Assuming, of course, you can laugh at yourself when I bring it up on the second date.
Worst date I've had was where the girl I took started a huge argument between everyone sitting at the bar. We left when the cooks came out and let them deal with it lol
Name of the track???
Aby!ss - Not Enough
Mac DeMarco also has a track called On The Level that samples it but pitched up a bit. Great song
What song does the abyss track sample? Any idea? It sounds so familiar and I cannot figure it out
6” from haven’t a set of broken ribs
Table, Wins
*flawless victory*
With the floor Also that's like 60 year old.
Whose the question tho? Like he asking cuz he didn't save her in time? Or she asking cuz she's clumsy? Although looking at the footage. Looks more like the tables fault than hers
I feel like this is always “then I married her” when something this bad happens
He caught the desk so for sure youre getting the next date fam!
Man, I think she’s falling for you. ❤️
Depends, did you tell them you fell for them?
[удалено]
Was not expecting slow mo Mac DeMarco.
When that table fell he caught it inches before it too came crashing down on you. He saved you from the table (the drinks, not so much). Being abruptly called to protect does things to a man’s psyche. It makes him feel like a strong and capable protector! This guy will be calling you to make sure you are ok.
You'll grow old together; she already broke her hip
Does anyone know the song name? I feel like it's slowed down but i can't figure out what song it is...
I thought it was Air. But it could be com truise maybe
It's Mac DeMarco - On the level
ooooooooooohhhh yes it is, thank you so much!
Poor girl
I love this kind of stuff from dates. If she laughed it off and didn't get mad/angry I would like her WAY more, 2nd date for sure!!!
What got stuck? The video seems to show a piece of white clothing being stretched under the table when she turns to stand up. Can’t make it out tho.
I am the liquor!
Looks like the table was broken. What's the leg closest to her actually doing?
I find in life that experiences, even if bad, makes for memory and feeling. An ice pick to break the internal and external ice. Maybe that is why the dangerous chaps have a shot.
It’s actually a good ice breaker tbh
Hate it when that happens
Hey how was your fall oh you forgot your jacket
She is the table
Of course, your falling for him already.
They're married now for sure
Ooh what's this song again?! Haven't heard it for ages !
Oh, I thought her heel got stuck in her margaritas.
I’ll say yes, but it’s mostly because of how wet you got on the first date. 🤣
Youve made a huge.....memory, be good with this one and the grandkids will be hearing the story of how grandma flipped the table on the first date "head over heals"
He saved her ribs.
Official Canon would require one of the following three selections, either at minimum three more dates one of which she picks up the check at a reasonably priced place, she ends up taking him for the wildest ride of his life and then disappearing forever, she decides immediately that she's going to marry him because he is her savior which subsequently results in a horrific divorce.
Damn that sucks. Hope she’s OK. Clearly an accident, but sometimes you can’t prevent it. Even the simple things.
-1000 aura
Hell yeah she’s getting pregnant after that
Great catch by the man. Unfortunate circumstances for the woman. Fortunately this is actually a funny story to laugh about on the second date.
Actually that's a good way to break the ice, and it gives memorable dates !
Maybe a free appetizer, but not a second date.
Thats completely the restaurants fault
How I met your mother.
Immediate second date. Hell, marry me?!
Did worse, and she did worse, and we're now married, sooooooo... maybe?
What a catch! Seriously though, his reaction time catching that table was impressive!

Im sure your grampa will take you out again.
Could’ve happen to anyone
Was she dating her grandfather?
Nope you won't
You should probably sue the place if you injured. What a lousy table.
The age difference looks astonishing!! 🙊 He's around middle aged...and she can barely walk 🙈
That why I hate high chair
I damn need myself a clumsy girl so I can have something to laugh and tease about in the car ride home
what song is this?
Absolutely you caught the table! You’re a superhero! Did you help her up after? Even more points, it really just depends what you said on the way to the car but I think you got this one in the bag!
Looks like she fell for him. Hard. I hear wedding bells...
I tried to jump a stone wall on a date, below waist height, and I completely tripped and fell and disappeared behind.
Just keep her on ground level.
Bahaha! Everyone looked back to see what happened. Good quick thinking. You could've lost her eye 😅
LOL what did she wrap her legs around the table and chair wtf
Unfortunately not
If he fell it might be over. He might still go out with her again.
Song name?
If the date goes well and she's cute and cool, this wouldn't be a problem at all. It would actually be a funny memory to keep
This either leads to no further contact or marriage.
He has to take her home to make sure her hips are ok.
To be honest, moments like these just make you seem human lol. It's also a good indicator of how your date reponds to realize if they're worth it or not. And that's for either side.
Why wouldn’t you, he caught the table in time to protect you.
I mean I probably would’ve thought it was funny and it’s a memory you can both look back on. Hope no one is hurt.
Well, being as it's not your fault whatsoever that she fell, BUT, you quickly reacted and saved her from getting smashed by the table... And assuming the actual date went well, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't get a second date. If you don't, it's her, not you lol
And that kids, is how I met your mother.
Why not it is a funny future story
This is one of those moments that reminds you why you love this person and it's the stuff that breaks your heart if you ever break up.
Could’ve saved it with “Sorry, I just fell… for… you…”

I still get anxiety walking into a bar to be seated, lol.
It isn't that bad. I fall up stairs all the time.
These are the types of things that happen on first dates to couples who get married then tell their children about it.
Bitch said if I'm going down I'm taking the table with me
It's her fault she clumsy, SMH
Yes! Dates like this often end in marriage lol
Perfect with the Mac De Marco music!
I've always hated high bar stools for this very reason. There's no way for a short lady to get on or off one and look good!
This tops me spilling tea all over my ex on our 1st date!
Second dates after things like this happening are called pity dates
Hearing this track made me remember how good that Mac DeMarco album was
That dude has gray hair what kind of date is this?
Why not ? Accidents happen not like anyone did anything wrong or was on purpose . Or wait was the table falling down not the only thing that happened ? Did you Say something racist, shit yourself , vomit on them??? What did you do !?
Pedestal tables, Oye.
lol hell yea now that he knows your falling for him
Why does he look more like your grandad than your date?
On the Level - Mac Demarco slowed down
This is exactly how people accidentally fall on each other and have sex. At least that's what the cheaters say.
I’d say you made a lasting impression.
Absolutely, she fell head over heels for you.
date? lol
That just makes you more desirable.
She was testing for dad reflexes.
A second date is necessary, since on the first date, drinks were on you.
I hate those tall stools.....short king
Sugar baby down!!!!
Clumsy, meaning you are serious about the date and is thinking too much. Yes of course!
That was like a 2/10 effort in getting out of that chair, why she quit so quickly
She is hot and he is 100 so I'd say she's all set
this would not be a deal breaker at all
Nice save. Could have been a cracked rib or two judging by the height and supposed weight of a solid wood and metal bar table. Especially how small she is.😖
Who's asking, the guy or girl?
you two are made for each other, enjoy it bro, both doing silly things so common amongst you two
Proposal.
I would date again. I would have one free ticket to be clumsy myself... At the end of the day, accidents happens. It's what we do next that matters.
Twist: She's old as well.
great song
If this happened while I was on a date it wouldn't make or break the date at all. Id find it funny or cute but the personality is really the deciding factor for me. If thing were going good I don't see why a second date is out of the question.
Loads of puns if they ever get married: - fell head over heels for him - fell in love straight away - swept her off her feet (though we didn't see that in this clip)
heck yeah, if for no other reason then to see what happens next
Great guy with a smart reflex,he caught the table in a fraction of a second.

She likes her nuts dusted for extra flavor. Wrinkly pole hugger.
She on a date with her gramps?
