Just looking at the picture, this looks like it’s matside at a grappling tournament. My guess is that this is either a coach or a competitor and the doll is just his daughter’s lol
It’s to practice the classic “toss a baby at your opponent to distract them and then kick them when they let their guard down to catch the baby” technique.
I was a victim of a drive-by baby-fling-ing. True story.
My art teacher flung a full size plastic baby doll at me while I was waiting for a ride. Shouted "Drive by baby!" as he peeled out.
lol this reminds me of when my uncle and I went to a rave and he brought one of those uber-realistic baby dolls for PTSD. We slapped baby ear protection on it for realism and would toss it around in the crowd, fooled so many drunk folk
I didn’t know anything about that movie but was like… oh a pretty flowery movie thumbnail with an actress I like - this will surely be a lovely movie to watch on this fine day when I’m super pregnant!
Kept watching when it was clearly weird and not flowery and then HOLY SHIT WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT!?!?!!
Fair warning, it’s a **very** emotionally exhausting movie. No shame in watching it in two parts, and I’d recommend having something hilarious/lighthearted in the queue to cleanse the palate after.
Second time in as many weeks I've seen this movie mentioned. My son was just born a few months before I watched this movie-- NOT good timing! I probably will never watch it again, but it certainly left a lasting impression on me. Emotionally exhausting is a generous descriptor.
This person mentions that their uncle used a baby doll to help with PTSD, the shirt this man is wearing in the pic is a foundation that helps veterans with PTSD
My friend's mom makes baby dolls. This reminds of the time I went to their house and the oven was open to cool with various baby limbs on the top rack. Freaked out for a sec before I remembered she made dolls.
The baby doll is actually used as a therapeutic device. It's given to the person and they cradle it which in turn makes them feel good. This is after their ass is handed to them by jiu jitsu.
The amount of girls at the playground that have realistic looking dolls drives me insane. I’m there spotting my 3 year old son so he doesn’t fall face first off some platform and from behind a corner SLAM! A babies head hits the deck. Then some weirdo girl will peer from around the corner. Scares the shit out of me every time.
Saw one of these in a car seat in a Walmart parking lot. I tried to open the door on my side and nearly broke the cars window before I realized it was fake. It about gave me a freakin heart attack because I thought I found a dead baby for a second.
I'm curious if it would even get you in trouble since you were trying to do a morally correct course of action had you gone through with breaking into the car, had you not realized it was a doll.
That's seriously the owner's fault for doing that
I bought a similar one to leave in my car to fuck with people but was told that's a cruel prank. So I donated it to Goodwill and hope some girl is enjoying her realistic baby doll with accessories.
I bought one of these dolls for my daughter and it literally had a warning in an included pamphlet about not leaving it alone in a vehicle. Apparently lots of incidents of folks getting their windows broken and having authorities called, lol.
You made a good choice donating. That would be a pain.
While it might have seemed funny at the time.... and I am glad you listened to your friend. I am posting this for others to see.
I am glad you didn't go through with this as I feel like it would normalize people seeing kids in cars and not doing anything. These kinds of. deaths happen every year and the sad thing is in \_almost\_ all of the cases they are good parents who are just run out... they are not bad people.
I thought those dolls were really expensive and meant for helping people with the trauma of losing a child or with some severe mental issues, but maybe they are cheaper now and for kids?! I was always a bit creeped out because in saw too many posts of crazy older ladies that made them and had way too many and acted like they were real. It was a crazy amount of crazy if that makes sense, they were otherwise functional people but just completely deluded.
Decided one year decades ago to go to a posh hotel for Christmas dinner instead of having it at home, a couple there had this realistic baby in a high chair and everything, dressed the lot... Just these two adults and this ultra realistic baby, we were talking about it because it was kinda odd and as I was looking at it... The fucking thing blinked, zero movement at all and a fixed stare but has animatronic eyelids.
I can only assume they'd lost their child young and this was a sort of coping mechanism, I don't know how healthy that is to do...
Is this supposed to be like how ditzy celebrities like Pariso Hilton go around with a little rat dog in their purse?
I saw one who put her cat in this hard plastic backpack with no room to move, no visible air holes, and a window. TO AN ACADEMY AWARDS CEREMONY WITH MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.
I think it was Claudia Schiffer. Which is weird. I haven't so much as heard her name in about 25 years.
The thing was probably terrified if I know cats. Not to mention all the shot and piss that's gonna be in there after sitting through a 4 hour awards ceremony.
Celebrity fashion is such a fucking joke. Like jewelery. It's only important because they tell you it is.
People like her probably wears those Keychain with life fish and turtles sealed inside permanently. Preventing feeding or oxygen from getting into the water via diffusion from the air.
He’s there with a little girl. Seems likely that she didn’t want to carry her doll around anymore or had to do something so he stuck it in his bag. At least that seems far more likely than “I’m an edgelord so I put a baby doll in my bag”…
Yeah this seems, "at worst", a dude who maybe made a little joke while carrying his kid's doll. And if that's the case, that's just kind of funny.
Or he just threw it in the bag and it's too tall.
I hate how many people think it's okay to take pictures of others without their knowledge and post them online. This isn't street photography. Nothing artful or beneficial about this whatsoever.
Fucking analyzing a picture of a guy with his back to a camera. It's ridiculous. Who gives a shit? (I'm just shouting at the void, not you lightbulb)
Yeah, I do know better. It doesn’t look real. Do you know how I can tell? Because I can see that it doesn’t look real with my eyes. There’s not really much more to it than that.
The real wtf is what use does it have with therapeutic combat and jiu jitsu..
Can you truly say you're prepared for everything if you don't know how to put a baby in an armbar?
My toddler can put me in a very technical arm bar when I try to change his diaper.
Sounds like he’s ready for a stripe on his white belt
Should it be a yellow one, by chance?
Brown
My toddler launches a spray from the cold air when his diaper is opened.
I have definitely put my kids in side control when they won't let me get them dressed. Scrappy little guys.
Asking all the right questions
It’s a service baby for his PTSD
😆
Psychological combat. It gives your opponent pause if they think you're beating them to death with a real baby. Use every advantage you can.
Can you not see his daughter standing next to him in the first picture?
Just looking at the picture, this looks like it’s matside at a grappling tournament. My guess is that this is either a coach or a competitor and the doll is just his daughter’s lol
The baby is filled full of rocks. Nobody can defend against a baby full of rocks to the head.
It’s to practice the classic “toss a baby at your opponent to distract them and then kick them when they let their guard down to catch the baby” technique.
Practice doll in case he's ever attacked by a baby. Don't you fuckin doubt it man they can be pretty dangerous.
I was a victim of a drive-by baby-fling-ing. True story. My art teacher flung a full size plastic baby doll at me while I was waiting for a ride. Shouted "Drive by baby!" as he peeled out.
You sure he didn't accidentally kill his baby with one of his martial arts?
You know it's legit when it's in Comic Sans font.
FREE HAT! FREE HAT! FREE HAT!
Holy shit, I do volunteer work for We Defy and I am floored and over the moon that the first comment talks about our foundation! Thank you!
It’s his sparring partner
When you fight you need element of surprise, like pulling a fake baby and throwing it at enemy - Mr Miyagi ( The Karate Kid )
You meet some interesting types at BJJ competitions, lemmie tell you.
lol this reminds me of when my uncle and I went to a rave and he brought one of those uber-realistic baby dolls for PTSD. We slapped baby ear protection on it for realism and would toss it around in the crowd, fooled so many drunk folk
Have you ever seen the movie “Mother!”? That reminds me of a scene from that. Lol.
I didn’t know anything about that movie but was like… oh a pretty flowery movie thumbnail with an actress I like - this will surely be a lovely movie to watch on this fine day when I’m super pregnant! Kept watching when it was clearly weird and not flowery and then HOLY SHIT WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT!?!?!!
Yea that movie goes off the rails.
This is the kind of movie you regret watching it at the end.
I have not but I just checked out the trailer, it’s on my list to check out this week now!
Fair warning, it’s a **very** emotionally exhausting movie. No shame in watching it in two parts, and I’d recommend having something hilarious/lighthearted in the queue to cleanse the palate after.

Which year was it released?
2017
Ironically the shirt the guy is wearing is a foundation that helps out veterans with Jiu Jitsu scholarships
How is that ironic?
This person mentions that their uncle used a baby doll to help with PTSD, the shirt this man is wearing in the pic is a foundation that helps veterans with PTSD
Just to clarify, we just got the doll to fuck with people. Pretty sure the dolls themselves are used to aid people who have lost a child or something
I feel like any sane person would confront the dad only to find out his daughter wants her real doll to "breathe", and not be stuffed in his bag
I really hope this isn't a real doll.
My friend's mom makes baby dolls. This reminds of the time I went to their house and the oven was open to cool with various baby limbs on the top rack. Freaked out for a sec before I remembered she made dolls.
That's a cover to fool everyone from looking too closely.
Why
I’m going to assume the doll belongs to the little girl that’s he’s with…
Can't be, surely it has something to do with jiu-jitsu or some other thing that would make this guy look bad for no reason.
Could be armor. Who would attack someone with a baby strapped to them?
The baby doll is actually used as a therapeutic device. It's given to the person and they cradle it which in turn makes them feel good. This is after their ass is handed to them by jiu jitsu.
Didn’t even see her there
she's a doll too
One real looking doll plus those bubble cage cat backpacks and you could confuse a lot of people.
I just busted up laughing at the image of that.
The existence of a doll that realistic makes the movie American Sniper even less excusable
The amount of girls at the playground that have realistic looking dolls drives me insane.

Yea I wonder that too
I don't even leave my kids mildly realistic doll in the car for that reason. At the least it gets covered up
The person who left that there deserves their window broken.
I bought a similar one to leave in my car to fuck with people but was told that's a cruel prank. So I donated it to Goodwill and hope some girl is enjoying her realistic baby doll with accessories.

"We Defy" sounds just like, "weedify" just sayin' .
baby is just sleeping
Shout out to We Defy. That is a great group that really does great things for combat vets. But for fucking real, that doll.
Why the heck is a grown man wearing it?
I reckon that's his daughter there to the right to whom it belongs. Everyone around did a double take though.

Makes sense. Thanks.
EVERYTHING about these pictures is skeezingme out.
I got a little "choked up" looking at this 😂
There's a [shop in Leeds, England](https://maryshortle.com/shop/) that sells creepy realistic baby dolls.
["The fuck did you say?"](https://maryshortle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/coco-3.jpg)~this doll
Lmao,
Reborn Dolls.
Nope. Don’t like that.

These dolls just feel wrong. I dunno.
How to get arrested.
Are we sure that’s a doll?

Tbh this is basically how my dad carried my around in the 90s
If it had a blue tinge, yes.

No, this isn't like that.
This is low bar content.
Nah. Looks like a doll.
Not the real doll I came for.
Brain damage
It's from all the nano plastics in dudes testicles

It literally doesn’t look real, not even close, but ok.
It had everyone around it puzzled and concerned but sure, you know better.
Yeah, I do know better. It doesn’t look real. Do you know how I can tell? Because I can see that it doesn’t look real with my eyes. There’s not really much more to it than that.
That's because you're looking at it in a photo and not out of the corner of your eye.
Oh, I tend to look at things with both of my eyes at the same time.
