1. Wow

2. tbh, it seems like a pretty natural (dazed) reaction

It's not as though he could react at the moment of unexpected impact, since his body is being moved by a much stronger force. Then there is a second or two where he gets stable and deals with shock, presumably, wondering what the hell is going and how the hell that happened.

[unblock]

3. Yeah, I would have reacted exactly the same way.

Stunned, get my bearings, analyze the situation, then move.

6. Yes, we usually see these things and think about what we would do based on what

we knowing having seen it after it happened .

But when something hits you like that suddenly out of nowhere while your mind is somewhere else it's a different situation. I can see myself reacting like him but not because i'm a calm person that has a handle of the situation. But more because I would just kind of be shocked and wondering if this really happened.

4. The Good Lord! It ain't rocket science, huh? Never mind her!

5. Why the camera?

[JI7]

7. Cameras are pretty common these days in many places.

8. Inside homes?

I understand using them when you're not home, for security. I don't get why people want them on all the time. ETA I don't think this was a set up or anything. But I also wondered about the camera. I initially thought this was a public place, like a restaurant dining room.

9. That is a true statement...

but aimed at my dining room table (assumed place)? Not saying it was set up but why the camera?

10. Some people put them in their parents' homes to watch out for them

That is one way to make sure elderly relatives are OK when they refuse in home assistance. About twenty years ago I knew a guy online who set up cameras all over his father's house when his father refused home care or to move to assisted living. His father was so independent, he would only answer calls once or twice a week from his son. So the son, who lived in a different state, put cameras inside and outside the house to reassure himself that his father was OK.

11. Ok that's a great reason...

And I can see my kids *trying* to do something like that.
