00:00You know that saying, I'll believe it when I see it?
00:03Well, I saw these soap opera accidents, and I still couldn't believe them.
00:10Esmeralda Falls from the Truck in La Gata
00:14This character took her cat nickname a little too seriously.
00:19She believed she could climb the door of a cargo truck and still land on her feet.
00:24The worst part of the scene is that the poor woman was doing heavy labor, unloading trucks, while eight months
00:32pregnant with a huge belly.
00:37Think about what a terrible mother.
00:39She didn't even know she was expecting twins, which shows she never had prenatal care.
00:45On top of that, this irresponsible woman put herself in such a situation, thinking she was Batman's catwoman and could
00:53grab the boxes from the truck while balancing on her tiptoes.
00:58No, it's really impossible to believe this accident.
01:02But wait, because the saga of this heroine's idiotic accidents isn't over yet.
01:08The cat is run over, or almost.
01:12There goes our heroine crossing a street in the middle of the night and suffering yet another accident.
01:19This time, though, she wasn't the irresponsible one.
01:22A distracted driver was.
01:26But up to this point, the situation seems pretty normal, right?
01:30Yes, but I was left wondering whether she was actually run over, or if she pushed the car.
01:37Who was the real victim in this accident?
01:40Mari Chui runs over a car in Cuidado con el Angel.
01:46And speaking of cars that were victims of Maite Peroni's characters,
01:51what about the time Mari Chui literally ran over a moving car in the most forced accident in telenovela's history?
02:00Let's break it down step by step.
02:03First, we see her running toward a car that was already almost finished passing in front of her.
02:10When the shot changes, the car magically shifts position, appearing farther back,
02:16giving the character a chance to roll along the side of the vehicle until she hits her forehead on the
02:22rearview mirror,
02:23when the car, feeling attacked, breaks abruptly.
02:28Mari Chui's problem with stairs
02:32Our angelic heroine doesn't only have issues with cars.
02:36Stairs are apparently a big challenge for her, too.
02:41She tumbled down a flight of stairs not once, but twice.
02:45In the first absurd situation, we see a visually impaired woman carrying a newborn baby through the dark city streets,
02:54completely lost.
02:56The most peculiar part of the accident is that the baby magically disappears at some point on the stairs,
03:03because when she reaches the bottom, the child is already gone, yet you can still hear the baby prying in
03:10the background.
03:12Ah, she let go of the baby.
03:14That makes no sense at all, because if she were able to stop the momentum of the fall enough to
03:20release the baby on one of the steps,
03:22she could have also stopped herself from rolling.
03:25The second staircase that victimized our heroine was at her parents' house,
03:30when the villain, Anna Julia, spread butter on the steps so the poor girl would tumble down from the top.
03:37Far be it from me to be nitpicky, but this soap opera doesn't help itself.
03:41You can clearly see that Anna Julia only spread butter on the left side of the stairs,
03:47yet Muddy Chewy manages to slip while descending on the right side, where there was no butter.
03:54On top of that, look closely at how the fall happened.
03:58It doesn't look like a slip at all.
04:00It looks like someone who stepped wrong and fell straight down with their body rigid.
04:08Notice how her foot twisted with no sliding motion.
04:11The dynamics of the fall are also very strange,
04:15because it looks like she's falling straight down, rather than rolling down a flight of stairs.
04:20She even lands almost standing before finally falling onto the edge.
04:24In short, what was that?
04:27It seems we only changed the telenovela, never the actress.
04:32But I don't consider it her fault.
04:35A bit of bad luck, right?
04:45But speaking of the scene, here we have another pregnant woman doing inappropriate work.
04:52Well, actually, this task didn't seem so inappropriate for a woman whose belly wasn't even visible yet.
04:58But cleaning mirrors turned out to be a big trap when the hand she was using to lean on on
05:04the sink suddenly slipped,
05:06causing Maria to slide forward and hit her belly on the marble.
05:10But look at the amount of foam on the mirror and the huge puddles on the sink that supposedly splashed
05:16from cleaning the mirror.
05:17In short, the mirror wasn't that foamy to have produced that much foam spread across the sink.
05:23But let's give poor Maite Peroni a break.
05:26She's already tired of suffering so many accidents in this video.
05:37This scene became famous in Marimar.
05:40Analyzing both versions, I realized that in this one, the fall is much more absurd.
05:47First, because it looked like she was climbing the stairs drunk.
05:51Before the fall, there's a moment when she almost loses her balance out of nowhere.
05:56Then, when she actually falls, it looks like she's tap dancing on the steps.
06:01First one foot slips, then she steps with the other, and only then does she manage to fall.
06:15At least in Marimar, it's more believable that she really stepped wrong and fell.
06:20The Styrofoam Handrail in El Color de la Pasión
06:25My goodness! What kind of material are these architects using in high-end houses?
06:31I'd say that in the universe of Mexican soap operas,
06:34they're pocketing the entire budget and building all the houses out of Styrofoam.
06:39That's because the character Adriana from The Color of Passion
06:43managed to break a handrail and fall from above onto a glass table,
06:59that's what happens when you try to save money on the construction budget.
07:04The glass bridge in the soap opera Ruby.
07:08And speaking of high-end houses built with questionable materials,
07:13I couldn't fail to remember the glass bridge from the famous accident involving Sonia in the soap opera
07:19Ruby. Was that glass made of paper? Because even though it was already cracked,
07:25which was strange itself, since a floor should be made of super-resistant material,
07:30how much could poor Sonia possibly weigh to make the glass give way in such a tragic manner?
07:37Look at the level of cracking that a simple step caused.
07:42Was the main culprit of this accident, Ruby, or a shady architect?
07:48Well, I'll end this list here. See you next time!
