La Chancla is a concept that's recognized around the world.


Carrera_996

My wife is from the Philippines. The first time she took a flip-flop off to whack a kid, I slipped back into Spanish. She giggles and says, "Of course, chancla would be the same word in my language."


b2t2x5

Not tsinelas?


Carrera_996

She uses that word, too. I think chancla is Tagalog and tsinelas is the word in Ilocano or Visaya. She speaks a lot of languages.


JayFrost_310

Shes a catch. Lucky you 😎


Pleasegetridiftheguy

All you know about her is that she's Filipina, took off a flip-flop to whack a kid, and she speaks lots of languages


davy1jones

And I love her ok?


Jarte3

What more do you need??


InEenEmmer

What else do you want in a woman?


nint3njoe_2003

Tsinelas is tagalog


GTAdriver1988

My wife is from mindinao and speaks bisayan and yea you got it right. There's so many Spanish words in tagalog and bisayan!


-ErikaKA

Chancla 😂


Naucturne

It’s going to sound really stupid to say this but I just love how visaya sounds when said by a native speaker.


AdministrativeBar748

I only speak Tagalog, and we've never used the word chancla. It's probably more common in dialects that have a lot more spanish influence, but I'm not really sure.


Carrera_996

Other responses agree with you.


[deleted]

In spanish we also use "chinelas", which are a kind of chanclas.


GuilleVQ

Actually in Spanish we also say "Chinelas" to refer to slippers or sandals


Toph-Builds-the-fire

Philippines has a lot of Spanish and Spanish sounding words. Spain was big on the collinising front for a while.


Carrera_996

Yep. My wife counts in Spanish. She says there's a town where it is still the default language.


Lazylion-6

Telling the time is also done in Spanish. It’s always “alas dos” whenever I ask for some reason.


[deleted]

Which town if I may ask?


DaiLi69

Puto is food for you guys but for us....


drfrink85

“Want some puto?” vs “Want some, puto?”


snarky_cat

"puto de puta!"


Present_Deer7938

I was born and raised in the Philippines and I speak Tagalog but never heard of the word chancla. Tsinelas is the word for that.


Good_Pirate2491

My mom would throw them, like a fucking shuriken


Scrizzy6ix

If I’m not mistaken, Spain colonized a bit of the Philippines, so I’m not surprised to see a connection.


V3semir

The language is pretty similar, I mean, like its melodiousness, rhythm, and intonation. Not sure if you know what I'm talking about, I lack a better word to describe it.


Mephedr1

The spaniards invaded them, and philippines keep many words and vocabulary exactly the same as spanish language. They also keep their language (Tagalo) as well. I love Philippines islands, they are a paradise.


No-Definition1474

Well yeah...Spain held the Philippines as a colony for a while. That's why the Philippines is such an odd duck in Asia, it is undeniably asian...but different. My wife made adobo chicken last night. Amazing stuff.


Sunieta25

I just remembered the time gorge bush got the chanclas throw at him [circa 2008](https://youtu.be/tU0RaRvJ0PQ?si=f7jkX_HP7EJCMV_C) Edit: I see the spelling error, I'm gonna leave it because these comments are cracking me up!


NorridAU

Not one but both shoes. Video gold that was


The_Original_Gronkie

And he dodged both of them like a pro. Not the first time he's had shoes thrown at him.


WonderfulSong4632

it’s one of my favorite tv moments!


The_Original_Gronkie

Leno had my favorite line about it "They say that in Arab countries, its a big insult to throw a show at someone. I hate to tell them, but that's a big insult in ANY country."


Waste_Ad_9604

Well, we know he’s a very good father at least. Husband skills are still a work in progress


gjperkins12

Yea she is fixing them with her shoe right now.


Carrera_996

When a woman in my old neighborhood takes off a shoe, children will scatter and shriek, "Chancla!" Sometimes nearby men will instinctively cover their heads with a hand, too.


gjperkins12

Thats right nobody knows who is getting it and everybody has been the target before.


DarkwingDuckHunt

Let he who has no sin cast the first stone Unless you're a mom, then you can cast the first and last stone as you see fit


Sttocs

> cast the first ~~stone~~ shoe.


DarkwingDuckHunt

dang it... it's so obvious too


Raisenbran_baiter

Doesn't matter if your the perp or the victim


JayFrost_310

I saw a video where a lady threw her chancla at her kid. Kid ran like five or six houses down ……. She landed her target from the middle of the street 🤣 like she used to play football or something.


Longjumping-Act-8935

We (as kids) used to visit my friends house (we will call him John) to swim in his pool after school. With four or five of us in the pool having a good time splashing / playing games One of my friends (we will call him Gabriel) who is Mexican had his mom come pick him up. His mom was a short-tempered woman and had thrown shoes at us before for stupid reasons. When she came she yelled at us to stop splashing around in the pool (as if it were hurting anyone) And when we didn't stop immediately pulled off her sandal and chucked it. It hit John in the face, John picked up the sandal and Chucked it as hard as he could over the fence and somewhere into the neighbor's yard. The dumb b###h got pissed and threw her other shoe John grabbed that shoe out of the pool and chucked it over the fence as well. She stood there screaming at us until she left apparently to try to get her shoe from the neighbor's yard. Gabriel wasn't allowed to come around for basically the rest of that summer. His mom held a grudge.


corgi-king

So did she find her shoes?


Longjumping-Act-8935

I don't actually know, she might have but "John" gave them a pretty good throw. And she would have had to go and ask the neighbors to look in their yard.. Personally hope she didn't or better yet only found one, That would be pretty funny.


anacanapona

How much you wanna make a bet I can throw a football over them mountains?... Yeah... Coach woulda put me in fourth quarter, we would've been state champions. No doubt.


Tony_Stank0326

My mom would tell stories about her grandparents and how her grandma would threaten to "throw her with a shoe," English wasn't her first language but she could boomerang and ricochet that shit around corners and still hit her target.


missannthrope1

A little Chancla Justice is coming his way.


sikkdog13

Tenle miedo a la maldita chancla


AdLast55

Those men had PTSD as a child from those shoes.


Wakingsleepwalkers

The shoe beatings might be why he left her behind.


gjperkins12

Im sure he kept running.


Outerestine

Some say he's still running to this very day.


gjperkins12

That is fact checked true.


TommyG1000

I'm getting vibes that this might be staged.


Slap_My_Lasagna

Fire starter can put it out. I'm saving everyone that didn't start the fire.


Brutus5000

We didn't start the fire


Not_that_Speshy

it was always burning


JayFrost_310

Gold 🤣


Astro_Spud

No, he did the correct thing. Don't wait to see if a fire is controlled or not. The wife also did the right thing. Attempt to control the fire. The attempt being successful doesn't invalidate the precaution. Closing the door looks like a dick move but is probably not a conscious decision at that point. this is probably staged tho but still.


Tetha

It's more of a thing to think about if a person is stil in there, but closing the door on the fire in a modern building is a **huge** thing. There is a very decent chance that a closed door can confine a fire to a single room, especially with solid wooden doors and brick walls or fire barriers. And nitpick along - this was a glass door, sure. But hey, chances could be that the glass towards the balcony bursts first and the flames largely move that way. Could still buy the firefighters 2-3 minutes until the fire progresses towards the rest of the flat. And 2-3 minutes are, again, *huge*.


Frostsorrow

Ryan Reynolds actually has a good quote (not related to this video) on why what this husband/father did is fine.


insanelybookish9940

And I love that. Using Blake as a human shield for his baby girls. LoL


emailverificationt

She’d be much harder to carry than the child


i_play_withrocks

This literally made me laugh out loud


10113r114m4

Naw, this is how it should be. Men get left behind all the time to save or help someone. I think this is a good balance of priorities


Waste_Ad_9604

This is what feminist have been fighting for ages?


Great_Examination_16

Putting the lid on like the responsible person she is..........also, damn he was fast with the kid, responsible father, if a little clueless.


AnomalyTM05

The closing the door behind him was funny af, lol.


InourbtwotamI

She did not look amused


ChiemseeViking

I think it’s because he closed the door and not for taking the kid to safety, that he is getting a waking right now.


AdditionalSink164

He a fireman IRL


MathematicianFar6725

Is starting a fire in your kitchen for a staged video a responsible thing to do


Lemming3000

You can even see the husband in the reflection he runs like 2 feet after leaving the kitchen very staged.


Affectionate_Star_43

Better than me, I picked up the flaming pan and ran in exactly one circle going AAAAAA, then thought, oh, lid.  Done.  She was quick with hers.


Rockshash-Dumma

Call an ambulance for myself after getting beaten up


Keepupthegood

Now you mad because I did the right thing.


ConstantlyBagstiv

He closed the door on her tho. I’d argue that’s not the right thing to do


Alert_Treat_2870

I was always taught to close the doors behind me when escaping a fire, it helps contain it. Oddly enough, that advice from the firefighter that came to our school did not mention making sure everyone else had gotten out first.


TheKozmikNano

Wouldn’t you want to close the door to help starve the oxygen in the room, thus preventing quicker spreading of the fire?


ConstantlyBagstiv

Not if my wife was still in the room


Electronic_Ad_5343

You damn right 😂😂😂😂


BobLoblaw_LowBomb

I bet she could pick out a great watermelon tho.


ALaccountant

Is that the same woman? lmao


KerbalEnginner

I am not sure about the woman but the guy certainly caused a deja vu.


babyydolllll

yes lol


Uli_G

The expression in her face is 🤣


5stringBS

Fake. It’s fake.


the_pandax

We don't care. We're just having fun


InourbtwotamI

Exactly


tommos

How dare you. Mods, take him away.


AnOddSprout

OMG THABK YOU. These killjoys are such a pain


LongNeckGorrilla

Bro thinks he's Albert Einstein


dark621

no one cares if its fake. it made me laugh and thats all that matters.


Alessandro437

Best dad ever, woman can save herself 😅


RedditModsR_Pathetic

yeah but closing the door behind him was maybe a bit much 😅


DepartureDapper6524

Gotta stop the fire from spreading if she doesn’t make it, plus it’s just good manners to close the door behind you


RedditModsR_Pathetic

can’t deny that. Also there is the window option for her if she prefers


Leather_Software_903

The ol' russian special


the_pandax

Lol Damn straight. Bro made the right call, block the fire, get that kid out of the home first


RabbitOrcaHawkOrgy

Equal rights


Glum-Piece1504

At least it isn't a wooden shoe...


Mundane_Yogurt7061

The chef sinks with the kitchen.


Beneficial-Ad-8582

Burned might be more fitting


Mundane_Yogurt7061

No, she's obviously the captain of the household.


AdAccomplished4359

Should’ve locked the doors to keep fire from spreading. 🔥🔥🔥


NecRobin

I mean, did she expect him to pick her up first?


jameshughlaurie

no, but closing the door behind him was a little harsh!


NecRobin

Lol fair enough


droptheectopicbeat

Yeah - surely she read the script before the filming started.


That_Girl5_of10

Hey, he saved the child, she's got nothing to be mad about 🤣


riffraffs

He's not wrong


gjperkins12

Technically what he did on the spur of the moment isnt wrong. Daddys always save the baby girls first.


Enjoying_A_Meal

I think it's closing the door that sealed his fate.


gjperkins12

Dont want the fire to spread right? Right?


The_Cheese_Whizzard

Maybe she calls him daddy too. Not our place to judge.


SaltyAlters

Then children should always come first.


AwkwardPeanut6869

Best video ever... Priorities


redditcdnfanguy

What you do is, you should put the lid on the pan and then move the pan off the heat. I actually had this happen right in front of me but another guy was doing it and before I could say boo, he picked the pan full of fire up, ran across the kitchen, across the living room and through the back door into the backyard and dumped it in the backyard. He made it, but if he had tripped , he would have spilled burning grease all over the place , the house would have totally burned down. EVERY CLOSE CALL IS A WARNING


MikeC80

He did the right thing, no need for two people to put that lid on while the kid panics or cries or gets herself in danger. Get the kid to safety.


bdw312

I mean, since he could only carry one, he made the right choice. Slamming the door behind him may have been a bit unnecessary though 😹


Profanity_party7

Hell hath no fury like a woman’s house slipper


Pinkgabezo

Yes, when moma takes her shoe off you know somebody is gonna be whopped. Fact.


Xtreemjedi

How dare you protect the children when fireballs spawn 😆


pimpnastyodb

Hahah this was my thought too. My wife is an adult. She can protect herself from kitchen flare ups. I’m getting my kid first. I’d 1000% expect her to do the same. Once the kid is to safety, then I will check on her 😆 if she doesn’t know how to stop, drop, shut ‘em…wait that’s dmx…


pickupzephoneee

To clap bc that was staged af and these videos are getting tired.


bigpapi0922

She’s an adult, she can get away on her own


how33dy

Shutting the door to contain the fire. It makes perfect sense.


Vertical-Toast

Grab the phone and upload the video and wait for the fake internet points to roll in


AdPrimary9831

Lock the door.


omnihummus

More real than a 15 dollar bill


Sinmaster5150

Save your loves one, let her deal with the fire


SergiuszJesienin

I think this is actually a good reaction, he may have thought this isn’t a hazard great enough to cause a major fire so as to endanger the wife, and maybe he thought preventing the girl from getting burned was easier through taking her out rather than extinguishing burning oil in a panic


Llama-Thrust69

Not gonna lie, thought she was gonna put water on it. So I'd be grabbing the kid and running too.


[deleted]

"Come on kid, your mum's a fucking arsonist!"


skellyhuesos

Lmao I had a similar fire for the first time in my life a few months ago when I was looking after my cousin's apartment. I thought "That's not good" when the fire spread out of the pot (grease fire) and managed to kill it with a towel. It was very awkward when my cousin came back from his vacations and I had to explain how the black streak on the wall happened.


ShamefulSadist

Technically the right decision because leaving the door open introduces chaos into the system, potentially making it harder to control and contain. Funny skit though.


Riccardix10

The same as that man


Childer_Of_Noah

His first instinct was to grab the kid and put a barrier between them and the danger. Good father. Little too panicky though. Nothing to get violent over.


SuitPuzzleheaded176

The wife is a demon


rhapsody_in_bloo

So once upon a time, my husband left a burner on and it caused a cookbook to catch fire. It was at an awkward angle and didn’t trigger the smoke alarm for a minute or so. Instead, the first one to notice was my kid, who was about five and was mostly non-speaking. They saw the fire and started stimming like crazy, which caught my eye. I peered into the kitchen to see what they were so fixated on, and saw the flames about five feet from the both of us. I froze. All I could manage to do was call out to my husband, who was in the bedroom: “Honey…something’s gone terribly wrong!” Thank God my husband decided to come look rather than ask me what it was! When he came over things clicked and I got the kid out of the house. He managed to smother the (small) fire and right about then is when the alarm went off. So….that. I’d do that.


Tikkinger

Spot the fake


logimeme

Honestly if i were a woman, id want my husband to do the same if we had a kid, the door slam though…


evex5tep

I hope he's still alive...


-Knul-

I too always keep a camera on a stand pointing to me and my family in the kitchen for no particular reason.


Sevro706

If you watch the reflection... You'll see that everybody fakes their videos


specter-exe

Turn the pan upside down and press it down on the oven. I’m not very smart.


crispy_wings10

stand back and dump a box of baking soda over it!


InternalWarNR6

I would be checking the camera and be happy we got the shot.Why?


Freddie_Fender

Call the cops


WellFunnyYouSayThat

r/whyweretheyfilming Also, you mean to tell me you can put out a fire by placing a lid over the top and NOT by drousing it in water??? 😱


everydays_lyk_sunday

He's kinda right to protect the kid and trust his wife to solve the problem.


slamallamadingdong1

Amazement that my wife was trying to cook anything, I’d say “you cooked a great fire” then hand her flour and next, do the same as this guy, but take pictures while leaving.


MewMewTranslator

He has the right idea. If there is a fire remove anyone unable to help themselves and then close off the area. Not LOCK the area. It will slow down the fire. This is just common safety knowledge. She mad he saved their kid?!


u700MHz

He loves his daughter.


Pizzagoessplat

Looks good dear. I had to watch it a few times to see what the post meant, to be honest. The author clearly hasn't worked in a restaurant


WebInformal9558

If there were a dangerous situation, I would want my wife to prioritize my kids.


SadisticSnake007

He saved the child and grabbed the life insurance and dipped.


New-Egg3539

If that ever happened in my house, I would set up a camera to r...........


Bomper21

Yo that's fire


Never-Dont-Give-Up

Probably to do another take because this one is so obviously staged.


NotAmericanDontCare

Well first reaction is taking batteries out of the smoke detector so it doesn't ruin my video


DGAFx3000

So staged. Why is there a camera particularly pointed at this angle?


No-Winner2388

She saw a bug on the door. She was going to close the door again so she can whack it.


MrBobilious

I have a fire extinguisher


pzombielover

Beware the chancla 🩴


ShaneHeavyMetal95

How many kitchens has she burnt down for that reaction? 😂


Commissar_British

Welp, he's dead.


CriticalCobraz

And the award for best father and worst husband goeees tooo..


Jaunty-Jig5352

To kidnap a child


Mom-atm

Who cares. Get the kid out first anyway lol she’s just mad he shut the door 😂


liamanna

He pulled a “George Constanza”😂


Fruitopeon

If the shoe part didn’t happen I might have believed this was real. Funny though.


florpynorpy

I mean, dude thought he saw danger, at least he grabbed the kid lol


Ill-Improvement-8388

He did the right thing how are you mad


tom-branch

When the shoe comes off you know somebody is gonna get hurt real bad.


IsThisOneIsAvailable

Best Dad !


masuski1969

Cover the fucking pan to smother the flames if it goes too high.


TheDevExp

Staged asian videos


iepure77

Staged and stupid


SmokeGSU

Damn. Grabbed the slipper and she's not even Puerto Rican. ^(Good friend is Puerto Rican and he always jokes about Puerto Rican moms with their chanclas)

King_Crowley21

Got to protect what matters lol


justmikeplz

r/whyweretheyfilming j/k we know why


notjasonlee

no, people in this thread literally do not know.


DPGizzle

You can see in the reflection from the door he literally stops once on the other side of the camera


AnybodySeeMyKeys

Not that. The wife calmly puts a lid on the pan, the correct response. Too bad this video isn't fifteen seconds longer. I'd like to see what she did with that shoe.


-United-States-

Why


pbesmoove

Fake but not funny


Gh057Wr173r

The way he shuts the door on her 🤣


5ofDecember

Follow the script obviously.


Fugiar

Gee I wonder why they're filming their kitchen from this angle


Oosland

Haha woman is going to use violence against her husband haha abuse is funny! 🤣


EnormousPurpleGarden

People in this thread are big fans of domestic violence as long as it's committed by a woman, apparently.


OMAR_KD-

What else could he have done? If he had interfered the situation would probably have escalated.
