My Friend Pushed Me Downstairs As A Joke, Which Sent Me To Hospital And Now Im Paralysed From The...

[@virtualatheist]

Pushing someone down stairs... As a f*cking JOKE?!? Matt should have faced charges!

[@StoryLoungeOfficial]

taking practical joke to far, way to far

[@princessstarpeach9161]

I hope he sue that ex friend

[@ktnamgyal5741]

This counts as attempted murder, does it not?

[@MRGREEN-p6t]

With friends like that who tf needs enemies!?

[@sharkins8696]

When life changes because of an accident or misfortune, its important to think of not things being lost but having new things to master. He can no-longer run a marathon, but he can still do one on a hand bike. Getting lost in despair is the worst thing you can let happen.

[@TomasM303]

Yeah, it just sucks how easy it is to ignore this truth and give into the despair.

[@Frightmarelordofthenightmares]

That is a bright side. Although I cant blame them for being sad from the pain and suffering

[@engiturtle65]

yeah no that's dumb af

[@Imintune...]

Why wasn't the police called to investigate it ? Obviously was a criminal act of assault.

[@Agent1230]

Look I can't tell a joke to save my life But I'm pretty sure I can come up with a better joke than pushing somebody down the stairs

[@peterwhite6415]

Gonna be honest, i almost was gonna take devils advocate role and say Matt was trying to cope with the situation that hes responsible for cause he problaby would break down if he admit his fault (wich is why he only said he was sorry to OP's parents), but its pretty clear the guy is only trying to save face.

[@BraveryWing26]

The story feels too unreal. Why didnt Matt actually react to being sued? He's still cracking jokes and guilt tripping once he's being SUED!?

[@GodlyTusamba-gd8jb]

PUSHING SOMEONE down the stairs as a f*king JOKE?! now that’s messed up Matt should’ve faced serve CHARGES!

[@Bucketus.Lord.of.Buckets]

He learned even his parents aren't on his side.

[@Zcmb1e]

hes clearly trying to cope with what hes done n he knows what hes done but, doesnt excuse that stupid asf "joke" but he regrets it clearly

[@ewuraakua9653]

Why didn't op press charges though

[@Zabrosk1]

If it was my best friend i would have sued his/her crazy ass

[@BraveryWing26]

OP did in the end.

[@Zabrosk1]

True but I think he could done more than what he did

[@BraveryWing26]

PERMANENT PARALYSIS!? Why isnt Matt in JAIL!?

[@jeffreyteorica1937]

Settlements are bs. The criminal gets absolved of any wrongdoing just by paying a certain amount? F that.

[@foreverpsycotic]

Lawsuit

[@karmagrl76]

Matt is the type of person who never owns up to his mistakes and thinks a few empty words will make things right. You can say you're sorry all you want, but if your stupid "joke" took away someone's ability to walk and bankrupted them with medical bills, sorry isn't going to cut it. You can't give him his legs back, but the least you can do is pay his bills.

[@helivarpalac2956]

A good number of people would say this is fake.... But there are videos/clips out there when people prank bday celebrants by smashing their face towards the cake only to find out that stick/toothpick from the edible flower had impaled the eye of the celebrant, leaving his/her stabbed eye permanently blind~

[@Popcandychi]

The hell. What kind of friend pushes another friend down a flight of stairs as a joke should face criminal charges for that smh

[@Mgeeza]

With the way Matt is acting, it's time for criminal charges.

[@gamerkat1492]

I would ask him stop coming around then go NC while you go through the legal process

[@noheroheretryagain837]

Proving intent? He pushed op down the stairs! Nobody in their right mind would do that as a joke!

[@rebeccafowles-k9z]

Hope the friend was arrested and sued for what she did

[@darkside-ls1tu]

Nah this is some bull For A joke he is a pose friend

[@Someone-hr8yt]

Yeah this isn't attempted murder...

[@johngardner4096]

"I didn't mean for that to happen..." Y'know, they never do - but it still happens, and it doesn't absolve them from responsibility.

[@jacobmiller9145]

Pushing down a stairs don't feel bad but I think he came over because he felt

[@Linnz]

"The doctor sat me down...." Is this another fake story?

[@قريهكلاش-غ3و]

He Is paralysed and he said doctor sat me down

[@DJace3000]

To be fair, it's a common saying at this point for talking to someone about something

[@Frightmarelordofthenightmares]

How can you judge it as a fake story from that statement?

[@Linnz]

@@Frightmarelordofthenightmares I posed it as a question, not a statement.

[@Frightmarelordofthenightmares]

@@Linnz Ok

[@cubbybonez1133]

Idk but matt cause op to feel pain so is matt fault and would go to jail for attemped murder (even he didn't try to plan it)

[@Mrwillie95]

When someone push you down some stairs is not a prank

[@wackyiv219]

This just doesn't seem real, he literally PUSHED SOMEONE DOWN THE STAIRS CAUSING HIM TO BE PARALYZED WHY ARE HIS FRIENDS AND FAMILY TRYING TO GET HIM TO FORGIVE MATT?! ?! ? Idk that took me out of it

[@todo8328]

That pause in the background music while he kept talking, was dope 🔥

[@tiny19890]

You would have not just been paralyzed but have life threatening injuries to your organs even might would have brain damage.😡 Pushing someone down the stairs doesn't say "funny talk"🤔 when it comes to having months of consistent pain and therapy.😮🏥 What would you do if this happened to you or anyone else you know?😱💯

[@tylerrubchinuk6778]

Weird how the police weren’t involved from the jump….as calling 911 for an emergency police fire and emt’s all arrive on the scene….so with that said police would have interviewed everyone at the scene and “Matt” would have been arrested as this is assault

[@SimonsafSimonsaf]

Attemted murder !

Oh man, oh man. I hope this one is fake.

[@Argonisgema]

Since when was pushing people down stairs a joke? Whats thw joke? I dont get it.

[@favillionbellarion9655]

You can tell this is AI cause a lot of the stories have the same wording over and over again, unless this is all posted by the unluckiest guy on earth

[@aricventurafoster8567]

Please my glorious king/queen.. NOTICE MEEEE

[@aricventurafoster8567]

@ FINALLY

[@aricventurafoster8567]

@@StoryLoungeOfficialbtw story is good, though OP’s friend is a complete dick for trying to switch the blame and topic, an accident is acceptable to a certain extent and OP’s friend is willing to do this stuff and yet not mean it.

[@MRGREEN-p6t]

Bro chilllllll😭😭😭
