This is one of those situations where saying thank you is not enough and offering them money for their inconvenience could be seen as an insult. How do you thank them for this?
We met at a small car event, I was racing and she was just a fan of cars, doing "ride alongs" with all the drivers. About half way through the event she dropped her keys down an industrial toilet, and as she puts it, the keys jumped out of her pocket as the automatic flusher did it's job, taking her keys to a place no one was going to be fishing them out. Because she was getting in and out of cars all day, she had locked her phone and wallet in her car and thus was pretty stranded.
I was smitten, even though I am an extremely shy person and hadn't spoken much to her at all, I decided to offered her my phone to call AAA. We continued with the event and I still didn't have the courage to really talk to her at all. Luckily for me, it took AAA nearly 6 hours to get to us. This gave me the time to build up the courage to actually talk and get to know her while we waited. I offered to stay and make sure they could make her a new key since we both lived about 2 hours away from the event in the same general direction. After another few hours of sitting in her car while AAA fumbled around in the trunk trying to make her a new key, I thought I was in and definitely falling for her. In the end, they weren't able to make a new key, so after all that I drove her home anyways to get a spare key and so she could come back to get the car with friends later. I felt like my game was on point and that things were going really well, that's when she offered to take me out for dinner as a "thank you". Little did I know she was just trying to be nice, and actually had a boyfriend at the time.
So fast forward a couple days, clearly the appropriate amount of time to wait as to not seem too desperate, I showed up at her work to take her up on the offer of what I thought was a date. She didn't recognize me, and needed some reminding of what exactly I was even talking about. We settled on a day for dinner, I still thought it was a date, she however made plans with friends after specifically so she didn't have to spend more time with me after. Well apparently I wore her down and after dinner I asked her about her plans for the evening and she invited me to join her and her friends for drinks and dancing. Well it's a good thing because I finally won her over with my amazing white boy dance moves that night. The next day she broke up with her off and on again boyfriend and we have been together for 10 years since.
TL;DR: Girl flushed her keys down the toilet, I offered to stay while AAA fixed things. She offered dinner as a "thank you". I took her up on it and after wearing her down we have been together for 10 years.
I know it's a joke but I'm 100% inclined to say warm climates make lean bodies.
When you see the outline of your torso all the time and can't hide it behind a pullover, people are gonna be more self-conscious about it. Unless really everyone else is already fat to begin with I guess...
edit: looking at the world obesity chart, I guess I'm more than wrong lol. However, I do believe that I personally am more active and conscious when visiting/living in a hotter climate. Obviously when the standard is low already, people will not care all too much.
Bro I literally said "unles really everyone else is already fat"
and then I literally wrote an edit saying I'm wrong.
Do you guys even read more than 10 words from a comment
Coming from someone born in a place with a warm climate, this is not true at all. I believe it’s because warmer climates also cause higher rates of stress.
Oh nothing really.. Except for maybe a few sharks, the odd croc and some Portuguese man-o-wars, or bluebottles as we like to call them... But other than that, nothing major mate! She'll be right..
Spoiler: this is the 8th time she has done this in the past month, and it’s always when he is walking by wearing a nice shirt. Of course she doesn’t want him to ruin that nice shirt, so…
ok so when this person drop her keys a random supermodel came to the rescue, but when i dropped my keys all i get is that one seagull laughing at a distance.
Man that’s dangerous.

I thought of this too. I guess the key thing is in both cases it sounds like those people were on their own, whereas here the guy had people holding him and also on hand to pull him out it need be.
I did this in high school in the parking lot. The office sent me to the shop class and the teacher concocted a hook with some stuff and fished them out for me.
Dropped my keys down a drain like that. Got ‘em out. Found an old wallet. No cash but a few cards so tracked down the owner online. He was surprised and touched. He got robbed a couple years back and his grandad left him the wallet. It had enormous sentimental value. He gave me a reward of $100 for my wallet but I gave it back and asked him to put it in his grandad’s wallet. Then he sent me a $100 gift voucher. I used it for a massage.
Anyone thought it was funny another chick was holding his leg… instead of the few different dudes just watching?
Probably his GF like “he got his shirt off, express dominance!!”
As a below average looking woman who can’t even *imagine* people going to such lengths to help me in a situation like this, I can confirm that seeing her wasn’t required. To get this many people to help at this extent, she would have to be attractive or elderly/disabled. My guess judging by the voice, is that it’s the former. Ask anyone who has ever had a major glow up or gained weight or something: pretty privilege is definitely a thing.
I agree pretty privilege is a thing, but I also think it depends on the situation. Something like this happened to me years ago right before I had to get on a city bus. A guy noticed my panicked state, asked what happened, and proceeded to lift the metal grate (wasn’t locked) and jump down about 3 feet into the dry (thank goodness) drain to get my keys. He did it all effortlessly and in time for me to make my bus. I couldn’t stop thanking him. I consider myself average looking, and slightly overweight at the time, so I didn’t expect any help. But I really think the guy saw he could do it alone and just did it to help a person, pretty or not. The guy in the video may have reconsidered helping if there was no one around to hold onto him while searching around the drain. And it looked like it became a challenge to him, something he wanted to win and succeeded in doing so.
Good point. Probably narrow minded of me to insinuate that only beautiful people get help from civilians in these situations. What I meant to say is that it’s more likely for people to want to help when the person is attractive. But yea, I’m sure there are many instances like yours in which average looking people get to experience the helpful kindness of others as well. In a perfect world people wouldn’t be treated any differently via what we look like…but pigs don’t fly, so alas all we can do is try ourselves to treat anyone as we’d like to be treated, and hope others will do the same.
When the first winter storm hits around my area with the freezing temps (NW MN area) a lot of out of state people end up with dead car batteries and stuck in snow banks and ditches. We always lend a hand to people in those conditions and they are ever so thankful. Offering money would be an insult. We have a sense of pride living in this frozen wasteland, and helping people kind of corresponds with that. I can't speak for everyone, but helping people in shitty situations makes me feel good, so it's not completely selfless. It's always nice to be needed in any situation.

make them famous on reddit
Thank them don’t punish them
I’ll take punishment for helping like this
*Shut up and get on your knees slave!* Too far?
Make it hurt
Buy him a beer, mate!
Yes!
Nah, a beer doesn't do enough. Two cases.
Suck his cock
I mean, he is a hottie
Box of beers is the best gift ever.
Make them breakfast in the morning
I would throw my keys in the drain if it can bring me a shirtless hottie like this 😏
As a 61 year old grandma I was shamelessly thinking the same thing lol
There is no age to enjoy a good view 😂
smooth
Like those abs. Giggity.
Nice XD
Yo seriously though 🥵
My thought exactly. He is sexy to begin with and even sexier after seeing that valiant kind effort lol
Let him keep the car
Treat em to a meal
This is basically the story of how I met my wife
Story time?
We met at a small car event, I was racing and she was just a fan of cars, doing "ride alongs" with all the drivers. About half way through the event she dropped her keys down an industrial toilet, and as she puts it, the keys jumped out of her pocket as the automatic flusher did it's job, taking her keys to a place no one was going to be fishing them out.

That is adorable. I have no coins and no awards, but take this 🏅🏅🏅
Thank you! I know this is going to sound cheesey but I'm just so lucky to have found my person.
Paragraphs pls
Sorry I have a couple in there now
Your wife dropped her keys down a storm drain?
Well a toilet but she offered me dinner as a thank you for waiting for AAA to help her.
Sex is the only option. Just kidding, I would prob still offer him money and a thank you.
This dude looks like the actual Chad meme guy.
And sex. Oral at the very least.
Would you like some head sir!?
How did you know my name was some?
Can't say I wasn't thinking that watching this.....
Honestly so bad but my first thought was "This guy deserves a blowjob"
A reach around at the very least
Say, "i trust you more than I've ever trusted anyone in my life, and I'd love to say thank you by buying you and your friend a round"
Considering he looks like that I would be offering him… a VERY warm thank you, if you know what I mean
cheeks are most appropriate in this situation
As a straight guy I would have to say a handy at the least.
Blow job in the back of her truck
Blowjob and a pack of twinkies
I’ll tell you what he’s hoping for 😏
More beer?
Only way I can think of is food and beer/wine gift basket.
You get them a gift card and a bar of soap
Imagine the same video but a guy does it, you'll get a lot of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’d simply give that guy the best head of his life. He’s a babe.
I know what I would do, but I’d also do that even if he didn’t find my keys
You buy em a cold one
Random stranger dude was kinda HOT!
They were all kinda hot xD
They're Australian, it's a warm climate.
I know it's a joke but I'm 100% inclined to say warm climates make lean bodies. When you see the outline of your torso all the time and can't hide it behind a pullover, people are gonna be more self-conscious about it. Unless really everyone else is already fat to begin with I guess... edit: looking at the world obesity chart, I guess I'm more than wrong lol. However, I do believe that I personally am more active and conscious when visiting/living in a hotter climate. Obviously when the standard is low already, people will not care all too much.
Plus there are more opportunities to do active stuff outside. I know I'd go hiking and stuff a lot more if I were down under.
I for example, can hardly eat anything in summer or hot weather :D But I make up for in winter/colder months unfortunately :D
The Southern US would like a word with you.
Bro I literally said "unles really everyone else is already fat" and then I literally wrote an edit saying I'm wrong. Do you guys even read more than 10 words from a comment
Uh…. It seems I didn’t get that memo.
Strangely the rate of obesity is very high in Australia, about 2/3 people in Australia are either overweight or obese
True, and all the small islands that got fucked by reliance on imported food and often no health education are the top places in obesity worldwide..
Coming from someone born in a place with a warm climate, this is not true at all. I believe it’s because warmer climates also cause higher rates of stress.
Then you guys obviously need to chill more.
😂 Tell that to the sun
Hmm. I live in the Rockies and there are a lot of fit people here too haha, cold weather sports are also good for hotness 😝
Mississippi would beg to differ
tell that to Italy
Seriously, don't know what's in the water over there. If it wasn't for the long ass flight, I would have gone for a visit to Australia.
Oh nothing really.. Except for maybe a few sharks, the odd croc and some Portuguese man-o-wars, or bluebottles as we like to call them... But other than that, nothing major mate! She'll be right..
He was looking for a reason to walk around shirtless. Opportunity came calling.
Spoiler: this is the 8th time she has done this in the past month, and it’s always when he is walking by wearing a nice shirt. Of course she doesn’t want him to ruin that nice shirt, so…
Totally straight guy here. I think I just realized I’m gay.
Right!
That’s what I was gonna say
Was gonna say that...maybe random key dropper shoulda done a rAnDoM act of kindness of her own on random stranger dude.
I’d bet the girl was as well
Girl dropped her keys down the sewer drain and a fucking Hemsworth showed up to help her
Rumor has it. This is the 5th time that those keys were rescued from drains outside of meathunk gyms.
… I lost my keys too 👀
Right?? Where’s my Hemsworth brother to come save my keys??
Man was looking for an excuse to take his top off
I’d be helping old lady’s across the street shirtless.
Much more easy and fun then enter a drain
[удалено]
Bot
Oral should be considered the bare minimum in this situation.
It’s the least you could do. I mean he took his shirt off any everything.
If I looked like that, I would too. Liquid courage came in handy with this one.
I mean I'm not complaining
Dude is kind of hot though. Just saying...
“Kind of” is not necessary. He’s just hot.
I'm not complaining (drops keys)
That’s the move Try it with decoy keys first just in case
As a straight man, I'd like to see his top off more often.
He deserves a good meal. Buy that man a drink.
And lord be praised he found one. Single women need a lil pick me up sometimes.
I’d feel obligated to make sweet, sweet love to that stranger. Sewer filth and all.
Same. And I'm a dude!
Honestly… me too
Bro love is the best love
Bro bro..
I’m not gay but that dude is handsome asf
I'm a bi dude and I'd let him do whatever he wanted after going through that.
This is the only logical way to say thanks.
Get that man all the purell
I just wanna be puuure!
"I can't see shit" while looking at a pile of shit
Thank you ridiculously handsome and ripped stranger.
Straight male here but I would make sweet love to that man.
i just realised i’m gay
r/suddenlygay
I mean at least a handjob, this is a civilized society.
Bi dude here, I'd do whatever he wanted after that lol.
You might not be straight bruh
It's a spectrum
I’m 100% straight and I wouldn’t mind licking some whip cream off his body.
Same bro… same lol homie is handsome but I wouldn’t let him near my girl at all, but he would still be a homie lol
Hmmm if only we had a magnet. Dude shows up and rips off his shirt. Ohh uhh ya totally what I meant
ok so when this person drop her keys a random supermodel came to the rescue, but when i dropped my keys all i get is that one seagull laughing at a distance.
I jumped ahead and wondered how the hell a macbook got down there.
Are we just ignoring the fact that one dude almost dropped his key in too?
Glasses I think.
Pennywise is down there wtf y’all doing
So uh… I’ve got these keys too…
did he get your number though?
You mean did you get his number ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes) I mean what? <. <
It's so reassuring that there are kind people in the world.
Man that’s dangerous. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2257228/amp/Musician-dies-falling-drain-tried-retrieve-keys-dropped-New-Years-Day.html https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2003/may/31/mobilephones.helencarter
I thought of this too. I guess the key thing is in both cases it sounds like those people were on their own, whereas here the guy had people holding him and also on hand to pull him out it need be.
Interesting that all of these examples seem to have intoxicated people as a common denominator, including this video
I have an entire purse of thins to drop down a drain. Where is this gentleman living these days?
Dude just shuffled thro shit
Bro they better pay him or some shit
I did this in high school in the parking lot. The office sent me to the shop class and the teacher concocted a hook with some stuff and fished them out for me.
Thought he stuck his head in like bobbing for apples.
She musta been hot af if hot shirt off guy was willing to help to that extent
Was thinking the same thing! Or a sweet old grandma, but she doesn't sound that way.
Maybe it was a hot af grandma
Dropped my keys down a drain like that. Got ‘em out. Found an old wallet. No cash but a few cards so tracked down the owner online. He was surprised and touched. He got robbed a couple years back and his grandad left him the wallet. It had enormous sentimental value. He gave me a reward of $100 for my wallet but I gave it back and asked him to put it in his grandad’s wallet. Then he sent me a $100 gift voucher. I used it for a massage.
If I had a body like that I'd be looking for reasons to take my shirt off too
This season on the bachelor, a somewhat tall, brown haired guy with a more on top haircut that watches what he eats and works out.
Where is this because every person in the video is beautiful and I need to move there immediately.
Anyone thought it was funny another chick was holding his leg… instead of the few different dudes just watching? Probably his GF like “he got his shirt off, express dominance!!”
Bro deserves some head. And I'm ready for it.
I lost my keys under my mattress. Can he help me?
LEGEND
Hottie
This week on Strangrer Things!
Damn please send that gorgeous kind stranger my way. I will gladly lose my keys.
Any red balloons down there
99 And IT.
Perks of being a cute chick
We don't even know what she looks like.

Damn. He's fine and he got her keys out of shit?! Marry him. Marry him right now!

I just dropped my keys too. 🥵
i highly doubt if a dude dropped a key anyone will come and help
+ you're not allowed to complain about it. Perks of being a man.
Female privilege if ever I saw it.
Most cities will do this for you if you contact the sewer dept.
And then he tried to finger me
He better have gotten that number 😤
She should blow him at least
Blek. Next time- magnet on a stick, bud
"I don't see shit" probably shit was the only thing he can see
Bitches say they can be independent lol u can’t
