I think this is the first time I've seen someone actually bust down a door with their shoulder

u/__01001000-01101001_ 15d ago

It’s generally better to kick it than shoulder it. Unless you’re built like a brick shithouse then whatever works

u/snidergp 15d ago

I've heard this but I busted ass recently in an emergency trying to do it this way. Im a reasonably athletic young guy, and had my feet planted as best as I could and the door didn't budge and i fell down. Threw my shoulder into it and it immediately flew off the hinges. I've heard this too but I'd say it's questionable advice at best especially for most people.

u/Ppleater 15d ago

I feel like technique plays a huge role in kicking.

361

u/FowD8 15d ago

yup, it's all about making sure you have your foot planted properly on the floor, and kicking the door in at the right location, directly left of where the lock is, not on the lock and not too far left or you miss out on a lot of potential torque

231

u/__01001000-01101001_ 15d ago

In a way kicking is as much about the leg that isn’t kicking than the leg that is. Having the foot well planted, knee bent, core and glutes tight, weight moving forwards. A lot of that isn’t instinctual, so I definitely understand people feeling that they’d be more comfortable using their shoulder.

78

u/SillySnafu 15d ago

kicking ain't for everyone and if you're built like a tank you can probably still get the job done

28

u/ThelVluffin 14d ago

Yeah I'm not flexible enough to get my leg to the right spot but I can Kool-Aid man myself through most stuff.

u/__01001000-01101001_ 15d ago

I mean that’s fair, knowing how to kick correctly is not exactly as instinctual as shoulder barging something. The main reason kicking is more effective is because you can direct the power into a single point. If you kick the door just inside the lock all the force is going through that point, and you’re more likely to be able to break the door, the lock or the door jamb. If the hinges are strong or the door opens towards you then shouldering the door in the centre means that the force is being spread across the whole door, and you’re less likely to be able to force a point of failure.

When I was in high school circa 2007 a group of Samoa students protested against a 28 min lunch change. They did a Haka and got it set back to 33 mins.

Absolute heroes. It wasn't about the fact that their families made meals for them, but that other students didn't have enough time to get in line, get their meals, and eat. They fought for all of us.

u/KnightOfNothing 14d ago

ah institutions thinking everyone can teleport into the lunch area, grab their food in a moment, dislodge their jaw and swallow everything in a single bite then teleport back to their work area. Truly a tale as old as time.

Makes me wonder if the people in charge can do all that stuff maybe they know stuff everyone else doesn't.

Stationed there in the Navy in 90’s and I was a woman ND so you understand I thought I was extremely hot shit. Yeah, changing those props really did NOT teach me how to fight.

Got my ass handly handed to me by some islander ladies (shit was being talked by both groups) and they were super cool cause after they kicked my silly ass they helped me up, complemented my strength and helped wash the blood out of my top. We all got drunk together later. But DAMN my face... it was sooooo swollen.

edit: ND stands for the “rate” or the job in the Navy of Navy Diver. Back in the day they were called Frog Men. It is not a special operations rate. It’s like being an under water welder. Plus a bunch of add-ons.

For anybody wondering, "ND" is a Navy Diver. Anything the Navy needs to do underwater, these are the people that do it.

Here's the ND career path document (pdf warning). It shows the requirements and responsibilities for being a diver.

Being a female ND is definitely impressive: less than 1% of military divers are women.

The ones who are not kind definitely exist, and many have an affinity for working at "therapeutic" boarding schools and wilderness programs targeting troubled teens (mostly) in Idaho and Utah. Other than (obviously) being Mormon I have not been able to figure out why they have such an outsized presence in this abusive industry.

42

u/Fear023 15d ago

I think that's literally all it is though. Mormon church is disproportionately represented in some pacific island nations, and being a big, bulky guy would cause them to gravitate to those kinds of industries.

Take that with a grain of salt, though. Just an educated guess.

Samoans are really chill, built like brick houses but chill as hell. When I was in the Boy Scouts as a wee lad, we went to a jamboree type dealio in the mountains, all kinds of different troops from all over. The troop next to us was Samoan, at night we just hung out around our campfire and shared chili and hotdogs. One day, they had all us troops play capture the flag, groups of two against two per each game. It was us and the Samoans on one side, and two other troops- Mormons from Utah. Surprisingly, despite the legend about Mormons being gentle neighborly folk, the Mormon troops were absolute assholes, chucking rocks left and right at us. The Samoans did not take to this kindly. Needless to say, our side won that day, mostly no thanks to our scrawny asses as compared to the Samoans. These dudes, same ages as us, stood half a foot taller and packed a whole lot more muscle, AND they played fair.

The Mormons caught some very well deserved reprimands that day.

Samoans are just built different. There's a video somewhere on YouTube of a guy breaking a watermelon in half with his bare hands.

A WATERMELON.

One of the funniest lines I remember from Lilo and Stitch was when someone asked the 12ft tall jacked whale alien guy where he was from and he started explaining his rank in the alien armada, then just stops and goes "...I mean, I'm Samoan" and everyone just accepted that lol.

This dude is why.

It's not just their size and strength. They're also way too fast and agile for how big they are.

It's no coincidence that basically every NFL team has a Samoan lineman.

There’s a guy who works at the Polynesian cultural center on Oahu that tears open coconuts with his bare hands. He’s gotta be northside of 60 minimum at this point, but uncle can still do it without issue on the daily.

Uncle. You know the nomenclature.

Everyone was talking about him being Samoan, and someone was like "How do you know he's Samoan?" And I'm like, that's a stupid question, they literally say in the video. And it's like, nope.

I just saw the dude and thought Samoan, without even thinking about it, even after reading it was in Hawaii.

As a Hawaiian woman, I'd say, find a Hawaiian woman to do the job. We're the strongest men you'll ever meet.

u/_Vard_ 15d ago

Ah i cant find it but there was a super cute video where this guy at a grocery store in Hawaii looked like Maui, And lots of kids thought he was Maui

He leaned into it. Got a name tag that says Maui. And tells kids he lost his fish hook, and that he goes looking for it on the weekends.
