I've skated this bowl (very badly) and can confirm it's a bitch to get out of.

There are slats cut out of the concrete on the side but they start way too high up. You need either great upper body strength or a boost to get to them. It's a bad bowl.

The advice was that he climb out then pull his dog out, which worked, so it was like a 5 year old playing a lucas arts adventure game I guess.

And that he refused to call emergency services because that's "admitting defeat", but asking twitter to figure it out for him is somehow not.

he wasn't in any actual danger, the whole ordeal took like 40 minutes, and it was delightful, so this was the right call

Pull the dog out using the umbrella, since otherwise he couldn't get reach

make sure you don't leave the chicken alone with the dog before he gets out too or the dog will eat it

According to the article it was using the leash then hooking the dogs back legs with the umbrella which I'm confident did not help.

one of the people who created Neopets(adam james powell aka adam borovan)and then left it back in the mid 2000's just recently kramered into a neopets discord, starting trying to shill a lovely NFT game, and then got so mad people weren't buying it he got banned from the neopets discord







by the way this guy was one of the (two?)people who apparently sold neopets for like 160 million back in the day, then founded a game company called "Meteor Games" in 2011 which laid off 90% of its staff and closed before the end of 2011, and I guess now he's become a crypto loser after wasting his share of all that money
