your timeout parameter on waitforchild might be the problem. It waited 1 second and then returned nil, because humanoid still wasnt found. I think thats what timeout does from what i saw Dfzoz 489 — 4y

You need to put this code into a LocalScript in StarterCharacterScripts or StarterPlayerScripts as UserInputService works only on the client.
You can then set:
char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
Your char variable wasn't actually referencing a character, so there was no humanoid to load the script into as a result, causing the error.
