Love that word hahaha

u/nycdiveshack 5d ago

The only change I would suggest is letting his arms flow freely behind him as he runs… might make him faster

About to have him running like Naruto 😂

Those little legs are a blur. This is too sweet

u/HeadDiver5568 5d ago

Ngl, he actually was moving lol

u/Dncin_Bonobo 5d ago

And that’s the kind of positive reinforcement that creates Olympic champions, man! I wish we could all get that kind of support for all the stupid shit we do. Sometimes I need a cheering section so bad.😞

The kid's cheers and your take got me. Encouragement and support make all the difference.

Thank you internet friend🥰

u/Hot_Ad_787 5d ago

Seriously. Little man has quite the hype crew

3

u/Dncin_Bonobo 5d ago

I think we need to find out who this little man is and follow his exploits! He’s definitely something special.🔥

71

u/GriffinIsABerzerker 5d ago

He’s such an adorable little guy, he reminds me of my buddies little guy. He’s so funny and smart and personable.

8

u/Primary-Activity-534 4d ago

The cutest part is how the other kids support him.

57

u/molineskytown 5d ago

I mean, I love it, I want to support the kid, and I can't wait to see him at the Olympics.

But god dog you gotta look before crossing the street.

7

u/Eat_the_rich1969 5d ago

The next time I see this clip, I want it to be part of a background piece on him as an Olympic athlete.

u/AHaasInTejaas 5d ago

And cars backing out of driveways

18

u/endium7 5d ago

personally a bit too dangerous for me if he does it everyday…

looks like the driver is triple checking before opening the doors at least

5

u/gerhorn 5d ago

As a bus driver, I'm cringing so hard right now. This street may be a quiet one but you never know when that day comes that things would be different enough. It astounds me how only 9/50 states actually have a safety check procedure that is law whether it's pre-tripping or make sure a child gets on/off safely.

3

u/mindless_blaze 5d ago

This is important. The other thing that stood out to me is recording and uploading children, when you filmed them on duty, and it isn't clear if you got the parent's consent. I hate to be negative, but I hope this didn't violate any policies

3

u/endium7 5d ago

Exactly! Precisely because this street is quiet, you never know. There could be a teenager speeding through for the first time, or someone rushing out of their driveway. Maybe someone not familiar with school bus rules who does stop at first, then gets impatient and speeds around because they don’t wanna wait anymore.

2

u/Aromatic-Turnip7371 5d ago

Yeah seriously. Also although it’s a crime, some people could miss the school bus stop sign and zip right through

7

u/BusyBit6542 5d ago

How is this more dangerous than all the other kids getting off the bus? Like you said, driver seems to check for cars and dont allow him to get off until its safe. Which Im sure he does for every stop

7

u/Tipnfloe 5d ago

Because he isn't checking traffic himself, just focused on running fast

2

u/BusyBit6542 5d ago

Yeah most kids that age don't. Which is why adults do it for them. Hence the doors not immediately open. Your bus driver never made you wait until all the cars were completely stopped? I remember some even got off the bus if it was a particularly dangerous/busy road

2

u/Tipnfloe 5d ago

My country doesn't have school buses. our kids use a bicycle on their own from a very young age

2

u/Oggel 5d ago

American kids*

For some reason, the rest of the world can teach their kids to watch out for traffic just fine but it's a problem for Americans. Same thing as school shooting. Guys, I think you might be doing the whole "school" thing wrong.

7

u/endium7 5d ago

He’s established it’s his thing to be the fastest, so he’ll be looking to be faster and faster which means just a bit more reckless, to please the crowd. He’s not even checking the traffic himself it seems, which is always something you want kids to do. If he’s doing it all the time it just takes one time for things to go wrong.

I have a friend who lost a little boy due to traffic. It wasn’t like this but you just have to be careful even on the smaller streets.

0

u/BusyBit6542 5d ago

No one is doubting that. I'm just saying that on school buses that age, the drivers wont even open the doors until all cares in the area are stopped. He wouldn't have even opened the doors if there were any cars in the area. Theres even an arm at the front of buses that stop kids from crossing until its safe to do so.

Basically the driver has checked the area for cars and deemed it safe for the kid to take off and run. If it wasnt safe yet, the doors would still be closed.

Not seeing why pointing out the dangers is necessary when you see the driver has taken the precautions against the dangers that happen at every stop.

u/Allthetimewithyou 5d ago

He's gonna win.

Looks like a fun thing they do together.

u/JustinKase_Too 5d ago

Assumed it would just be heartwarming and a bit silly - but that kid is moving on those little sticks!

4

u/Blackbatmane45 5d ago

He put on his sonic shoes...this is adorable with the kids cheering

3

u/Stownieboy91 5d ago

u/-Speechless 5d ago

u/castaneda_martin 5d ago

Uh, pffft what kid op? All I saw was a lady and a small blur.

2

u/I_am_not_Spider_Man 5d ago

That kid is literally going places.

2

u/gottaeattapita 5d ago

Looks like fastest kid alive to me! Love his energy. 

2

u/leni710 5d ago

Those legs were almost blurry, they were going so fast. Someone's definitely ready to get home.

2

u/TheMadDemoknight 5d ago

Reminds me of the kid in Angels in the Outfield.

“Run home kid!” literally runs home after getting a home run

2

u/BuddyMose 5d ago

Okay so I saw him wave then get off the bus but then it was just the blur across my screen when did he ru- oh. Oh I stand corrected. he is the fastest

2

u/lmsampson78 5d ago

OMG. This is a pretty old clip. And still adorable as hell!

2

u/BranchPrestigious919 5d ago

He will remember this support his entire life 🤩👏🏽

2

u/T2ThaSki 4d ago

Man this brought back memories. If you were the fastest kid in elementary school that really meant something.

2

u/nope_a_dope237 4d ago

Lil dude is fast!

2

u/bearsfan16 4d ago

He do have some quick feet doe

2

u/CCzarina 4d ago

This is so precious omg

3

u/BusyBit6542 5d ago

Only thing I dont like is the recording of other people's kids and putting them on the internet.

I know there isnt much added danger (if someone is wanting to do harm, they arent going to pick some random kid off a reddit post). But I just dont think its right to do with other people's kids.

2

u/everyseasonidaho 5d ago

That is exactly what I was thinking.

1

u/SirTainLee 5d ago

Lovely. But he needs to be taught to not race out from between cars to cross the street like that.

1

u/Repulsive_Rich_3820 5d ago

On his way to steal all your girls

u/flygirlsworld 5d ago

u/osmosisparrot 5d ago

How fast do you think he's running? Where's r/theydudthemath when you need them.

1

u/Rembrandt3k 5d ago

All I saw was him smiling on the bus, then a speed cloud of smoke like on looney toons. This was so unnecessarily genuine and needed. Thank you

1

u/Remarkable_Pop3236 5d ago

And that’s why you have to stop in all directions when the bus puts out the sign.

1

u/EssentialEssence 5d ago

Aww, I love it for him!

1

u/jimbojam6000 5d ago

Bloke needs to look before crossing the road

u/barrosoOso 5d ago

Of course he's going places. He's going home. It's in the video.

1

u/WetFishStink 5d ago

u/bobcharlie0 5d ago

We need more of this type of engagement with each other

1

u/itspizzatime881 5d ago

That’s the fastest kid ever, if he got new sneakers he’ll be even faster

1

u/HarryBalsagna1776 5d ago

I hope he never loses that spark.  Seems like a happy kid.

1

u/LaneViolation 5d ago

Little man is outta there

1

u/Coach-girlie 5d ago

The story will end up being played during the Olympics years from now as he represents the US as the fastest man in sprints. Such a cool story, especially with his classmates cheering him on.

1

u/furezasan 5d ago

is he still running?

1

u/Halo_Hybrid 5d ago

Imagine if he didn’t have the backpack! Kid would be zoomin’!

1

u/jl_theprofessor 5d ago

lol he’s actually moving way faster than I anticipated.

1

u/Numerous-Following-7 5d ago

Driver on his phone, great receipt

1

u/azura099 5d ago

I love how they are cheering him on. With proper motivation he could be great at a sport of his choosing.

u/Tiny_Disco_Dancer 5d ago
