Back in my elementary school days, we got ourselves banned from the tube slide because we would intentionally lodge ourselves in there and keep sending more people down to see how many people we could hold. People would keep sliding down while at mach speed trying to break through the wall of 9 year olds. Once we lost our grips or had enough of a pounding, we would all come sliding out the tube like a log of turd. The teachers didn’t appreciate it and said it was dangerous, so the tube slide got banned for that whole year.
What makes you think he isn’t fidgeting with a completed bomb under the table during this vid? Did you watch it? This is his way of saying he’s thinking about using it at a playground😂
@@elderscrolls8442how. i think it is perfectly reasonable to criticize a child for choosing an objectively shitty piece of playground equipment. Fix em while theyre young dont let em fuckin suck
4:35 the balancing lilly pads have immense strategic value in tag as you can keep the tagger on one side and weave in between them when they try to run around, or run around if they try to go through. It's basically barbed wire. I'm 25
balancing lily pads can also be used as platforms for battle royal style duals to the death, loser being the first to be knocked off. it was a stage of great violence
It's a good thing you shaved the mustache because that would've made you look much more guilty having playground equipment magazines being mailed to you

Apparently, the Swirlygig is meant to be rode on; by hooking your legs around it in the right way you can sit on the swirl and slide down it, rotating around the central pole. Like spinning around a regular pole, but on your ass and it does it for you. I've never met a single person IRL who was aware of this. Everyone I've ever seen interacting with or that I have interacted with on a Swirlygig either used it as an awkward ladder or torturous confinement device. But that's the magic of childs' play; recontextualizing the environment around you to suit whatever play is happening in the moment. Still, you know you have a compromised design when no one who sees it can intuitively figure out what its purpose is or how to use it. Edit: aw dang he mentioned the sliding thing, oh well
I used to go to a park as a kid that had a GIANT swirlygig and everyone there knew how to use it where I was at least, turns out that when kids do know how to use it they usually try to become a human centrifuge then fly off trying to spiral down it as fast as they can which usually ended in a lot of kids eating wood chips or getting brain damage by knocking their head against the other equipment on the way down gg.
I love those big wooden ships, maybe with a little slide to escape the ship?? You can act like pirates, you can act like you just survived a ship crash, you can do war related stuff idk? So good
Best playground ever growing up was one in my local Town it was huge , built 100-percent out of wood and had all sorts of weird little nooks and crannies that you could crawl into. Basically a giant pirate ship with Bridges linking all the spires and shit was pretty cool.
i loved when ian counted nuts and found that 51% of the nuts were peanuts instead of less than 50%, truly a crusader of our time down in the trenches fighting for justice
This comments section is a thousand times funnier than the video itself. Amazing how drastically his fan base has dipped yet the only people who hung around STILL hate the new shit. RIP.
Idubbbz is revolutionising the thumbnail game, i saw the thumbnail and couldn't help but look at it in horror like it was a car crash, at that moment my fate was sealed and now I shall watch this video.
The playground near my house used to have a zipline thing. It was a large handle with a wheel that rode alone a rail, and it was badass. It had a little round platform at the end to get off of it. We also had the talking tubes and to me they were like the weird little speakers in the Teletubbies intro that say "Time for Teletubbies!".
@@NittyGritty420hopefully, but when you form an audience like this, when you get MILLIONS of views and recognition for being bigoted. Then you do a complete 180, OF COURSE you're gonna see them turn on you. They feel like idubbbz has turned on them, and in turn they attack his personal life, his wife, content, etc. It's just sad that someone I enjoyed back then, and still enjoy, is hated on by his community so hard. It's Pathetic...
@@NittyGritty420 just because you considered it a "joke" doesn't mean I did. So yes, him saying the Hard-R was offensive to me, even though I enjoyed his content. And I don't think he hates minorities or lgbtq community, but 𝘪𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘥 like it.
im a bit sad that the zipline was left out, but that is a bit unhinged for this channel's content nowadays, so i understand lmao this was fun, lookin forward to more of your zany hot takes
There was a playground in my apartment complex when I was in middle school, it was made of wood and is was basically just a fuck hut for the high school kids when their parents were home. It was enclosed so you could sneak in there do your business and no one would know. Before anyone asks yes this was in Florida.
You could have spiced it up by actually going to a playground and testing them rather than speaking from memory and speculating. Why did you not do that?
I think the running theme for some of his recent videos has been revisiting things from everyone’s past and riffing the video based on nostalgic thoughts rather than actively doing the things again. (Ants on a log, life event tier list, etc.) Please don’t forget this is the guy who entered Krogers coupon codes for a whole video and everyone ate that shit up without complaining about the effort put into the video.
i loved merry-go-rounds as a kid but i was always prone to motion sickness. so i'd always throw up when we went fast. but that didn't stop me from right getting back on afterward. best playground equipment for me, remembering what i was willing to risk for a few minutes on that ride.
“Old idubbbz vibes” would’ve been him actually gone on a playground when no one’s around, fucked around with his friends, and getting hurt from doing something stupid. Now we just have him drag and dropping images while he rambles.
Dude, tire swings when I was a kid were dangerous and fun. Also, at my elementary school there were these big metal animal swings with 2 chains on the front bars and one on the back where your hands and feet would pump on this giant connected contraption of bars that are all connected to get the thing going. Despite them being literal battering rams and playing games where we dodged a kid going mach 20 on one playing chicken to see who would dodge last (and the kid riding rocking the back so it swung left and right also). Somehow no one was ever killed or even hurt 😂.
