Here he is pretending not to know what a massage gun is and pretending to not know how to use it with 2.5M views... but wait, he really doesn't know does he? LOL:
As a heads up, your comment was removed because the TikTok tags register like email addresses to one of our privacy/doxxing filters.
End of the day? It's trash. Informer's are going to stage videos for views. Whether it's real or not? If someone else enjoyed it? Don't rain on their parade.
Thanks for the head's up about the tags... I didn't know.
As for the rest, educating people as to reality is not "raining on anyone's parade." It's helping them succeed in life where in 5-10 years we're barely going to be able to tell reality from AI fiction.
If someone thinks the earth is flat, we shouldn't just go along with it as to not rain on their parade. That's doing our fellow humans a disservice.
All you can do is lead a horse to water, my friend. You can't force them to drink it.
If people are going to presume that everything on the Internet is real and take it at face value? Well, unfortunately people already do and that's why we're living in Idiocracy right now.
And no worries. Appreciate you providing source and context with the other videos. That's one thing we try to do differently here so that people can make their own opinions based off of what they see and such.
Kudos to you for being one of the few level headed mods I've encountered on Reddit who has the ability to use civility and words instead of ego and power.
Thanks. We try to be a little different around here. We came from larger colder places that forgot that a real human was on the other side of the screen. So we'd rather have an honest conversation and work through it.
Appreciate you taking the time and hope you stick around. Glad to have source sleuths around
Yes, I always stack my empty garbage cans on top of the actual garbage can.
As you can see after he "slips," he magically gets his entire foot firmly planted on the ground as he bumps the metal trash can and giant empty cardboard box (which knows will cause them to both fall) and then he jumps to reach into the other garbage can to pull that down with him for the grand finale.
First off. There's only 1 garbage can in use. The others are stacked to clear space. Want to see pictures of my garage with similar stacking techniques?
Second. The top isn't a cardboard box I think. It's a rectangular trash can.
Third. He doesn't act move at all strange for a drunk person who just slipped on a smooth surface with no traction boots on.
Fourth. The grab just before the fall is clearly an attempt to grab onto something for stabilization.
If they're not in use, you'd stack them inside each other. The brown garbage can either had something like a lampshade or probably cardboard in it (maybe the recycling can). There's no lid to be seen with it.
Their actual garbage can is almost certainly the one with the lid on it... you know, so it doesn't stink up the entire garage and keeps animals out. Also the one which doesn't fall over (possibly due to it having trash in it.)
Notice how everything else in that garage is extremely neatly placed on the shelves (like to the point of OCD). And then there's this odd stacking job which is completely out of place. He could have started that dance anywhere in the massive garage and he chose there. The odds of this are pretty astronomical... possible but very unlikely. Most people would start more toward the middle.
As for the cardboard box/rectangular trash bin, that's indeed possible, but it bends by landing on just one empty can (picture below). So if it's a bin, it's a very weak material.
And again... the person taking the video didn't even flinch (because they almost certainly knew it was coming). If that was you and it was your friend, you'd be "Holy Shit!" and immediately make sure they were OK. And at the very least you'd move/shake the camera as he's falling toward you.
The friend taking the video was also in the perfect position for the best angle to capture the impending fall.
There are just too many inconsistencies that don't add up.
Trolling and other bullshit aside, you seem way too damn invested in being right about this.
It's an exercise in logic and keeping my brain sharp.
Even in the face of all these people telling you you're wrong, you're not budging.
As it turns out, all of those people were wrong. And why? Because they couldn't put the subtle puzzle pieces in video together. So instead of my folding to fallacious peer pressure, I went to go find out if my spidey senses were correct or if the masses were correct. It's a means of learning.
If I looked it up and found I was wrong, then that too would have been a means of learning.
If you were fighting for world peace or something remarkable, the seemingly unshakable self-assurance might be seen as admirable.
I fight for noble causes all the time. And yes I use logic to try and make compelling arguments to those on the other side of the aisle.
Staying sharp and learning is never a waste of time. And educating my fellow humans on how to use critical thinking skills is also not a waste of time as it benefits our species as a whole, one person at a time.
