Those who fear falling never rise like this.

Listen, I love practical effects as much as everyone else, but Markiplier getting injured doing his own stunts on the motion-rigged set of Iron Lung isn't something that should be celebratory-ily memed:

Actors and stunt actors should not sacrifice their health for the sake of realism or the perfect picture, and practical effects includes things like mannequins and dummies, not just actors, especially when it involves flying around sets at mach speed.

Celebrate practical effects yes, but also encourage safety over aesthetics!
