With all the knowledge and wisdom on this site I have a question I am sure can be answered here.
What keeps them from falling down around their ankles?
Their pants, that is.
I saw this guy walking down the street with the waist band of his pants at the bottom of his but! cheeks. I thought I had an elementary grasp of gravity but I guess not. No suspenders and he wasn't stopping every other step to pull them up like some I have seen.
I could have stopped and asked him but didn't so maybe someone can explain it to me.
Velcro, safety pins, anti-gravity jeans?
And other than the fact that it "looks really cool", why?
Just a SWAG...
I suspect that the ROCKS in their head(s) are creating a localized gravity anomaly that partially counterbalances normal gravity at or about the midpoint between their blockheads and the ground (but I could be wrong AGAIN).

I thought they were "lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground..." 😉

Same reason some people detail their vehicles to the point you could eat off the air filter cover. Or put clear plastic covers on their furniture. Or majic marker the outline of tools for the peg board in the garage.
Then fast forward to the hackey sack circles, the frisbees at the over crowded beach, or even drag racing down rural highways at midnight.
...just because it's "cool". The really annoying part is that the same crowd enjoys the "thumpa thumpa" sound emminating from their highly detailed "ride", whilst sitting at a traffic light they will eventually burn rubber from.... oh yea, and the chicks dig it (supposedly)...

Thanks Wendell.
I knew it had to be a simple answer. It makes perfect sense now.

I've always wondered if the white kids who wear their pants that way know what it means in prison...
I'd expect if they did they'd pull em up, and quickly.
The low pants thing makes me think of a bunch of clowns.
I don't remember the clown's name that was famous for this suspender pants trick that would moon the audience with a pair of bloomers with the man in the moon pic.

Also contains an explanation of how they stay up. The wearer just has to hang on to them as he walks.

How dare you bring facts and logic to the conversation?
Good job, sir. I have been debunked.
I love 'em.....especially on "Cops" when some perp in baggys tries to run.
beats me.. as a pretty skinny guy with no backside to hold my pants up, I'm constantly fixing them if i forget my belt! that would drive me crazy to intentionally have them dragging like that.

thanks for lightening up a tough day!:-)
I just assumed the vacuum in their head created enough suction to keep their pants from falling clear off.

I think ya NAILED IT!

What keeps them up
Simple. They walk a little bow-legged, and thus the "diameter" of their legs increases from waist to knees.
This reminds me one of my daughters had a boyfriend with the falling down pants.
One day I said, "Ed when you are in my house your pants will be up around your waste."
Fortunately she fired him (several years ago).
Jeez, it's been 14 minutes and nobody asked about his "waste?"

LOL Don.
That was a Freudian slip if ever there was a Freudian slip 🙂
