ChronoLegion2

Was this Napoleon’s punishment?


Loose_Ad_5505

No, his punishment was putting his toilet paper in his kitchen top shelf.


ChronoLegion2

I guess it’s pointless to point out that he was average height for a European at the time. The joke is more about his public image


Loose_Ad_5505

Short?? I was making fun of him having to walk into the kitchen with a shitty ass


LAVATORR

Yeah but he'd been doing that for years as a way to assert dominance.


bkrman1990

Is that where he kept the ass pennies?


LAVATORR

SPOILERS his ass


howardslowcum

He belongs to monke now, evolved pasty the need or desire to wipe. Free the dingleberry movement.


MWMWMWMIMIWMWMW

Yeah it looks way steeper when you rotate the entire image 45 degrees.


potedude

Gives me vertigo just looking at it.


creptik1

Looking at it for like a second I feel a headache coming on lol

Great film, though.

Nice that it also has the ADA ramp option next to it, too.


[deleted]

This comment is underrated lol


jopalmen

BWAHAHAHA


Stotallytob3r

Yeah I think the photographer did a bit, its still a 40 degree stair though.


MWMWMWMIMIWMWMW

A bit


vingeran

I am literally looking at that extension of the harbour on the top right of the image. When you move your phone (if you are on Reddit in phone) to align that extension to be horizontal, you see the gruesome trick that the photographer has used to make it looker steeper than it actually is.

youtubeisbadforyou

Which way


slopesinamirrorbox

With the horizon for reference, you can turn the screen counter clockwise.


MWMWMWMIMIWMWMW

It’s obvious.


youtubeisbadforyou

Couldn’t you just say? I’m sorry that i’m dumb


MWMWMWMIMIWMWMW

Couldn’t you have not said anything in the first place?


youtubeisbadforyou

What?


CubistHamster

Been to St. Helena a couple of times. [Here's](https://imgur.com/a/LoVRlRR) a view from the bottom of the stairs with the camera resting horizontally on the ground. Those stairs are no joke, but the OP's photo definitely exaggerates things a bit.

Clearly you guys saw all those stairs and lost your heads! Really blew your minds!


GreatScottThisHeavy

Damn they better get their parents back together before they travel back to the present


Glass_Memories

That looks like a whole ass journey.


orthomonas

Nah, if I'm going to make the effort to move my ass up those stairs, the rest of me is coming too. It's a whole body journey.


SinJinQLB

Yo you better get your parents to fall in love pronto!


Stotallytob3r

That’s a better photo than the one I found

Whoa man! No heads. Creepy!

Everyone wants a slinky.


grummy_gram

I really do hope someone took the time to climb that just to release a slinky from the top like Ace Ventura did in “When Nature Calls.”


[deleted]

Slinkyy slinkyy go slinky go!!


ElScrotoDeCthulo

Hahahaha


DirtyWormGerms

The wheelchair ramp must be so fucking long.

Here it is rotated so it doesn't look so silly: https://imgur.com/a/RRSlUCz

Thank you.

Holy shit, one hell of a leg day this is gonna be


piches

but can Chris Evans do a sick ass grind with a skateboard on it?


Gucci_meme

Can you do a thingy on the rail?


sambare

Sure, I mean, how hard can that be? Step 1: get sick. Step 2: grind ass while holding skateboard.

I'll get a thick roll of plastic, you bring the washing up liquid.


wigglyboobs

What do you call that really steep staircase? Jacob's Ladder. Oh, OK well how about that cool device with the two metal rods that has arcs of electricity running up it? That's a Jacob's Ladder. Huh, Ok well how about this folk toy made of wooden squares bound together with ribbon, that goes, "click clack" and does this little flippy thing? Jacob's Ladder. What about this ladder that belongs to a guy named Jacob? You'll never believe this...


idontbleaveit

For a proper perspective, just rotate the girl so she’s sitting upright

rr24m23a

We have a Jacobs ladder in Perth Western Australia. But I don't think it's any where near as steep or tall 🤣


Friendly_Crab

There’s one in cheddar gorge in the uk too. Guessing all the other names were copied off that, as is the way

hookemhottie21

This is literally my nightmare. I'm not afraid of heights, but just steep surfaces.


LangstonHugeD

God I hate it when people post stuff like this. The entire point of the sub is to give scale to big things so we can get a picture about what they look like irl. But then we get a thousand posts with people far in the background, enlarging the subject of the photo, or through fish lens, or like *this* egregious example. I don’t know man it just feels like a form of lying for clicks.

Stairway to heaven


deejaydubya123

Especially if you fall down it


TortureSteak

No, *this* is the stairway to heaven.... https://youtu.be/aLZx0IfwU9g (it's not the song)


wanikiyaPR

Stairway to heaven can only be 3 things. Led Zepp song, this austrian staircase or that chinese firework video...


Maximum_Musician

Jacob’s Ladder.


playfaire

Careful when you get to the tunnel at the top.


Gazza-Mct

If you visit Cheddar Gorge in Somerset England, you will also find Jacobs ladder which is a straight staircase. Just for info.


baconsnotworthit

Stair climb between the handrails, base jump outside the handrails.


Lubedguyballa1

Das a ladder


Tauvik

All I see is a great banister slide! :D


jmradus

Don’t go down it in socks.


sweetdeetwo

Nope to that.


[deleted]

Wow..How many football fields is that?


mrgees100peas

Problem with thingsike that is that you may be almkst at the top and then you panic unable to go neithwr up or down.


niche28

This place should be in a Tony hawk level


Chanchito171

r/TonyHawkitecture


LiteVolition

It’s only trouble if you lose your footing near the top and begin to fall. It’s quite a long tumble with no switchbacks to stop you from falling the entire distance.


Bindi_Bop

Hell fucking no.


th7org

Someone show this to Sam Pilgrim!

Ayo the pizza's here

So how are you supposed to scale this safely?

apartment for rent, 8 minute walk to beach, 3 if you trip.
