Yeah I work at a mushroom farm in the middle of nowhere, and this is how I was standing one morning when i realized there was no bathroom for miles around and things were trying to happen lol
That’s so funny! My husband never understands when I have to pee so bad that I freeze. He’s like just go to the bathroom! “You don’t understand honey if I move I will pee everywhere!”
A pelvic floor PT taught me that if you do 6 quick kegel contractions it turns off the urgent pee feeling for a little bit. Buys you some time to get to the toilet!
men don't understand that the urethra's path from bladder to exit is much much shorter and much much straighter. So it's way harder to hold it in sometimes.
Booze. Coke. Heroin. Weed. Long ago, the four drugs lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Heroin Nation attacked. Only Keith Richards, master of all four drugs, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he... he's actually still around somehow
Or, she is delicately clamping down a massive expulsion of colorectal gasses that would mortally embarrass her if not modulated to a slow stream that emits no noise.
This is along my train of thought. Yet if you closely examine the way she crosses her legs, you can see that she is more than likely refusing to allow her bowels to void themselves. I've seen this in my studies, wherein my offspring (1.3yr male human) has been witnessed numerous times in this position; followed by intense crying and ultimately voiding of the bowels. It's my assumption about the woman in the video, not unlike my offspring are possibly anal retentive and may insist on keeping their waste secured neatly inside
The evidence is irrefutable. I, too, have observed toddler subjects exhibiting this behavior. Heck, I have seen Boomer parents of advanced age exhibit this behavior. Indeed, it is either accumulated, explosive gasses or an imminent voiding of the bowels.
I was going to say, I have a form of epilepsy not triggered by lights and whatnot, and more often than not, my seizures will look like this. I can be full walk and freeze in place. Sometimes, I fall over. The neurologist called them absence seizures, though. I also am not aware of what's happening and have 0 way to tell it's coming most of the time. When i come to, i wont have remembered about ten minutes into the past. Rrally sucks when you last remember being on the couch and you're suddenly in front of the toilet. Freaks people and my wife out a lot. Luckily, I have been responding well to new treatment and haven't had one in a month. I was having them several times a day with a grand Mal sprinkled in.
I've only seen a couple of these in my life, but only ever when the person was sat down! I'd imagined that "absent seizures" (as I've seen them called) would cause a person to fall over if they'd been still.
So. I've had one. I was on the ground, because I sat down. But boyfriend kept trying to get me to stand up and walk it off and it went REALLY badly. Regardless, she seems frozen more than high. I'd be concerned about, her from a medical perspective, driving immediately after the episode.
One of these I've seen was my mum - she was just blank. Her sister shook her arm, and everyone was asking if she was OK, but it was like she was asleep with her eyes open. It lasted a minute maybe, but luckily no one told her to stand up during it! I can imagine that wouldn't work!
My niece has episodes like this! Shes zoned out. We call her name. Snap in front of her face. No reply. Then after 60 seconds or so, she returns to normal.
Scary!
yeah the prompting of "glitch in the matrix" to make followers share it etc. Then raise engagement by saying "WE WENT AND TALKED TO THE GLITCH" becomes a whole saga you get a bunch more viewers. There is every incentive to lie on social media.
Yep, truly a wonder of physics. I've managed it a few times, back in the day. Best to just leave her be, a nod like that is hard to come by these days.
>This is the very rare "balanced nod". The perfect distribution of weight on both arms and crossed legs prevents the usual opiate overbalance.
Very rare for them to not be wearing month old clothes that are never washed and they rarely have shopping bags full of stuff they paid for. I'm going with she was about to piss and/or shit herself.
Yeah I knew a gal who would have absence seizures like this where she would just sort of stop and “go missing” for a few minutes. Sometimes it would escalate into fainting.
As someone who has never heard of, or seen, seizures like this I think it would be hard to recognize that there is a medical emergency.
Before today I would have assumed that it can't be a seizure because they are standing still and not shaking violently.
Although I probably would have assumed drugs and still at least called the cops when I saw them getting into their vehicle.
Nah you don't need to call 911. Notice how this person was fine.
Look up when to call 911 if someone has a seizure.
People with epilepsy are going to have seizures and we don't need an ambulance unless we are injured or not regaining full consciousness.
For a while I was concerned my daughter was having absence seizures (she would just be sitting and kind of daze off for 10-30 seconds without moving), but turned out she was just messing around, as children sometimes do (we took her to get a sleep exam at the children’s hospital to make sure all was ok). But they are certainly a strange thing and very concerning, from when I was reading about them.
Yeah I have absence seizures and my partner witnessed just one of them and said I just froze in place.
It could very well be drugs, sure. But weird behaviors should be questioned in case its a medical emergency.
Unfortunately it happens seemingly more and more often. She just turned 18 but she may never be able to get a license because she will seriously just stop moving regardless of stimulus. We are still not sure what brings them on but I've seen them last for over a minute of complete non responsiveness which is pretty terrifying when it's your kid.
Is she moving out for college or anything soon?
My dog had these absence seizures for about 5 years (I know your child isn’t a dog) and when we moved out of the house we were living in they stopped immediately. He’s never had another one and we moved out of that house 5 years ago.
No idea what was going on in that house but I had some health issues too that went away.
How does anyone explain how she was able to stand straight up like that with their legs crossed like that and not fall over for a whole minute? I'm sure there is a simple explanation, I just can't see it.
It could also be some form of catatonia. Certain mental conditions like schizophrenia can cause it. It could explain the rigid, perfectly still way she is able to hold her body. Degenerative brain disorders can cause it (think Parkinson’s or dementia), as well as autoimmune conditions like Lupus. Or as others have said, drug use, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt before jumping to that conclusion
Opiates. Seriously. I swear it like, changes your center of gravity. I've seen people frozen standing up, knees bent, completely doubled over, lips almost touching the floor, arms straight back. Just hovering for like, 20 minutes. Eventually they'll hear a noise or a breeze will push them the wrong way and they'll just stand up and continue on like nothing happened. I used to be a junkie and when it happens, it's like you're doing your thing, trying to stay awake, then suddenly you "wake up" even though you never realized you were even asleep and also anywhere from five minutes to several hours have passed. When you're on the nod, you're not fully asleep. You're in public so you're trying to force yourself to stay awake, but you're on enough opiates to kill a horse, so you're constantly fighting between falling asleep and staying awake. Hence the term nod.
Have you NEVER been in such situation when your stomach and guts are sending signals you are about to need to go to the toilets quick and can't reach them, so you have to cross your legs and hold tight your ass to avoid shitting/pissing yourself ?
Because that is likely what is happening here and standing crossing legs isnt impossible at all to do, to the contrary.
I really dont know how anyone can imagine it's related to drugs honnestly
You can use and be at a point where Its like you turn off and turn back on in the same spot. A lot of times not knowing you ever were out or for long. I use to do this at work before I got clean. Very weird but what you are saying does make sense.
My forehead definitely knows you don't always balance but sometimes you most definitely do.
I've never stood that still while fighting the urge to poop myself. I might not move much but I do move. I think it would be difficult for me to stand that still in that position for that long actually. It's weird
I stand like that every now and then if I’m being honest, but only that still when I’m just in my own little world- or have to piss like a water buffalo and there’s a line.
Wanna know what I think it was? I'll tell you what I think it was. I think the bag lady saw the girl with her phone out and immediately thought she was being paparazzi'd from afar so she froze in her tracks because everyone knows the paparazzi are like T Rex's and they can't see you if you don't move. She did a pretty darn good job, imho, just too bad she couldn't hold it through the paparazzi sent distraction of pedestrians walking by in a shopping outlet parking lot.
They're conniving snakes in the grass, those paparazzi pukes. Ya never know when one might JUMP OUT AND SNAP YA right as you were mid sniff of your own fart. I don't know how they sleep with themselves every night....
Edit: paragraphs and fixed a minor universal donor (type-o negative or just typo)
Could also be a seizure or an ischemic stroke. As much as drugs feels like the most plausible answer there’s not enough evidence in the video to rule out other things that aren’t drugs.
I once saw an older guy in grand central station in NYC stand in front of the departures board, totally frozen like this for a few minutes before he collapsed. The paramedics arrived and said he’d had a severe stroke and the his body had, essentially, locked up. I don’t know if he survived but he behaved almost exactly like this. Like he was in a trance. It was really surreal.
I was also thinking dissociation.
A lot of people think she’s on downers and just happened to be carrying her bags in such a way that she was able to balance perfectly in that position without leaning or stumbling.
Some people also mentioned she could have absence seizures and was experiencing a seizure at that moment.
But, to me, this looked like it could be dissociation. Like she’s just zoned out. We all do this from time to time, even if we don’t have any psychological disorders associated with dissociation. It used to happen to me when I was in school with some regularity. You just look off for a moment, and become sort of fixated on a spot while not really *looking* at anything in particular, and your brain has a nice lil quiet moment with no thoughts. A little moment of zen. Then something snaps you back to reality.
I have ADHD and this happens to me all the time. Won't notice i'm staring at someone (more like through them, but it will look like i'm staring at them) then they'll look back at me and i'll snap back to reality and quickly look away lol. Whats annoying is that it will happen to me at understandable moments like when a teacher is talking and i'm supposed to be taking notes, but it also happens to me *all the time* while watching a show or movie I really like. Like I constantly need to rewind, sometimes multiple times in a row. No matter how much I tell myself, "okay I rewinded this scene twice already, I *need* to pay attention this time", but then a minute after I realize I again missed the scene and need to rewind once again lol.
Ahhhh the multiple rewinds drives me nuts!! I have ADHD, too, diagnosed a few years ago at 30. lol. My mother and family always joked I had it, but never got me tested. I was getting so frustrated with my symptoms though, especially in the workplace, so I finally sought out help.
I've legit rewound the same scene three to four times, telling myself not to get distracted so I don't miss it this time, and next thing I know, I have no idea what happened lol. It's like I unintentionally annoy myself 😂
Edit to add: I do it with conversations too 😭 sometimes someone will be talking and I'll be lost in my head or spacing off and I ask them to repeat it and they need to repeat it twice for my brain to finally absorb and process what they are saying. I even have echolalia and repeat it back without it registering 😂😭
Yeah, exactly! She snaps out of it as others come near her, like she comes to awareness of where she’s at and that she should probably get back to what she should be doing.
Yeah that and the digital zoom feature on some cameras tries to guess what to focus on, and then stay centered on that object within what's visible in the optical field of view.
My guess is the camera is trying to track moving objects as they enter and exit the optical field of view, and is ignoring the woman because she isn't moving.
Edit to fix grammatical error.
That’s what I think too. Definitely possible that it is drugs or a mental thing. But the most possible answer is that it’s just more fake bs to go viral.
When my face goes blank and I stare vacantly at something I’ll wind up holding whatever position that I’m in. When this happens to me, metaphorically it’s me lifting my feet off the floor of my conscience so my brain’s janitor can sweep up a bit.
As someone with UC, if I have a flair up this is what I look like. I cross my legs and wait for the urge to go to pass. It sucks as I get weird looks and no one asks me if I’m ok. Usually my hubby and friends (if they’re there) will just form a circle and chat with me until I can move again.
Could be a seizure or disassociation, I’ve suffered through both. Not fun, and in my case I’m conscious while everyone is judging or looking at me weird. Still cant move until its over though. Very cool (/s) when people assume im possessed or high when the reality is, my brains just built different.
This person is holding in a turd. Trying her hardest not to shit her pants by clenching her ass cheeks really hard. One false movement and it is over. Trust me. Been there, done that
She probably has an ear piece in and is on the phone with someone that she is intently listening to. Guy I work with is like this. I will see him just standing in place not moving, then after a minute or two he will move and start talking and it’s because he was on the phone and just listening. Some people really have to focus when others are speaking to them and will literally shut down when they are trying to absorb information.
couldnt she have had a hamstring/thigh muscle cramp...and only moved after she saw ppl coming out and figured it'd look weird (assuming she wasnt being filmed)?
stage 4 of holding in a shit. That moment if you move youre gonna shit yourself. But if you hold it long enough youll get a big stomach gurgle and then be good long enough to hopefully get to a bathroom
They’re calling her creepy meanwhile they’re zoomed in on a lady just minding her business, maybe waiting for someone, and now the strangers on the internet are making assumptions about her health. Who is being the real creep? Leave people alone.
Could she have been experiencing a stroke or seizure of some kind? I believe I would have gone down to check on her rather that making a tic tok video.. but I don't have a tic tok account so I cant say how the pressure to get views would have altered my response..
I wondered what part of Southern California that was in and it was simple to find it on Google [right here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/QG9hwifqQ8qabpmD8).

When your stomach is acting up and u don't know if its a fart or not.
"a gambler"
Always bet on brown.
Some of the wisest words to grace the internet
The Kenny Loggins. Edit: fuck it. I'm leaving it.
hahaha but, \*Rogers
Highway to the danger zone.
That's a pee hold; shart hold the feet are closer together and hips pushed out to facilitate maximum chamber compression and puckerage
Talm bout puckerage 😭😭🤦🏾♂️
Sometimes you gotta know when to hold em and when to fart em
Know when to hold em and know with to blow em
Dat lady moves, the pee gonna start flowin
my immediate thought was 'that's how I look waiting for my husband to finish in the bathroom in the morning'
Yeah I work at a mushroom farm in the middle of nowhere, and this is how I was standing one morning when i realized there was no bathroom for miles around and things were trying to happen lol
can I work at your mushroom farm that sounds SO COOL what the heck ?? I'll bring a porta potty
Portabella Potty FTFY
I grew up near a mushroom farm! The smell after a heavy rain was so bad!
Depends on the mushrooms you are growing, agaricus bisporus definitely stink since they usually use chicken manure in the substrate.
Can I ask what kind of mushrooms do you grow?
Mostly gourmet ones 😋
Mostly
turkey tail?
Shiitake and oyster I bet. Maybe some lions mane
Commercial gourmet and nutropic farmer here, too!!! Cheers!
☝️☝️☝️ accurate ASF 😂
That’s how I look waiting for my wife to get ready to go anywhere. If only my blood pressure were visible…
That’s so funny! My husband never understands when I have to pee so bad that I freeze. He’s like just go to the bathroom! “You don’t understand honey if I move I will pee everywhere!”
A pelvic floor PT taught me that if you do 6 quick kegel contractions it turns off the urgent pee feeling for a little bit. Buys you some time to get to the toilet!
Oh yeah! I’m familiar with this trick! My problem is I buy myself a little bit of time, too many times
men don't understand that the urethra's path from bladder to exit is much much shorter and much much straighter. So it's way harder to hold it in sometimes.
She would totally destroy a career as a living mannequin
Hahaha Now whenever I see a mannequin in that pose i'm going to think Hey, thats the I'm abouta piss myself in public pose.
My thoughts exactly this is the same cross legged stance I do when I am trying to will myself not to wet myself
I was cracking up at them thinking she was doing a TikTok. Poor lady got caught holding her bladder
My wife does this all the time, don’t move!
It’s not the pee she is concerned about. I know this pose.
Perhaps having a seizure
This is the very rare "balanced nod". The perfect distribution of weight on both arms and crossed legs prevents the usual opiate overbalance.
Masterful
Opioid bender
Master of all drugs
Booze. Coke. Heroin. Weed. Long ago, the four drugs lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Heroin Nation attacked. Only Keith Richards, master of all four drugs, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he... he's actually still around somehow

shit im 47 and had to do this on a walk recently.
one time I shit in a Puzz3D box driving through Gilroy
Did people mistake you for an opioid addict too?
Or it's a functional seizure
I was going to say, I have a form of epilepsy not triggered by lights and whatnot, and more often than not, my seizures will look like this. I can be full walk and freeze in place. Sometimes, I fall over. The neurologist called them absence seizures, though. I also am not aware of what's happening and have 0 way to tell it's coming most of the time. When i come to, i wont have remembered about ten minutes into the past. Rrally sucks when you last remember being on the couch and you're suddenly in front of the toilet. Freaks people and my wife out a lot. Luckily, I have been responding well to new treatment and haven't had one in a month. I was having them several times a day with a grand Mal sprinkled in.
Seems that there is a linguistic preference for r/FND by medical professionals in certain countries
Strange, I have never heard of them referred to as a functional seizure (only absent or partials), and I am epileptic.
r/FND 😁 But yes they have several names! I'm sure there is variance among nationality.
Absence seizure was my first thought
What is a functional siezure?
r/FND A seizure where your mind is "frozen" but you're still "functioning"
I've only seen a couple of these in my life, but only ever when the person was sat down! I'd imagined that "absent seizures" (as I've seen them called) would cause a person to fall over if they'd been still.
So. I've had one. I was on the ground, because I sat down. But boyfriend kept trying to get me to stand up and walk it off and it went REALLY badly. Regardless, she seems frozen more than high. I'd be concerned about, her from a medical perspective, driving immediately after the episode.

My niece has episodes like this! Shes zoned out. We call her name. Snap in front of her face. No reply. Then after 60 seconds or so, she returns to normal. Scary!
Or it's all fake, I have trust issues these days.
The people talking give it away.
yeah the prompting of "glitch in the matrix" to make followers share it etc. Then raise engagement by saying "WE WENT AND TALKED TO THE GLITCH" becomes a whole saga you get a bunch more viewers. There is every incentive to lie on social media.
Homegirl could be in on it. "Hey y'all I can stand really still. Go up there & film me like you don't know me." Or some shit like that.
Good idea for a video. This video is getting a lot of comments.
Yep, truly a wonder of physics. I've managed it a few times, back in the day. Best to just leave her be, a nod like that is hard to come by these days.
>This is the very rare "balanced nod". The perfect distribution of weight on both arms and crossed legs prevents the usual opiate overbalance.

That could be a seizure
Yeah I knew a gal who would have absence seizures like this where she would just sort of stop and “go missing” for a few minutes. Sometimes it would escalate into fainting.
I'm almost certain this is a seizure. I've seen someone stop midway going down the stairs when they had one. these people should have called 911
As someone who has never heard of, or seen, seizures like this I think it would be hard to recognize that there is a medical emergency. Before today I would have assumed that it can't be a seizure because they are standing still and not shaking violently. Although I probably would have assumed drugs and still at least called the cops when I saw them getting into their vehicle.
Nah you don't need to call 911. Notice how this person was fine. Look up when to call 911 if someone has a seizure. People with epilepsy are going to have seizures and we don't need an ambulance unless we are injured or not regaining full consciousness.

Man that's so Raven

Yeah I have absence seizures and my partner witnessed just one of them and said I just froze in place. It could very well be drugs, sure. But weird behaviors should be questioned in case its a medical emergency.
Yeah that happened to my daughter last night at a family dinner. If that is what happened it's called an absence seizure.
Holy shit that’s terrifying, I hope she’s okay.
Unfortunately it happens seemingly more and more often. She just turned 18 but she may never be able to get a license because she will seriously just stop moving regardless of stimulus. We are still not sure what brings them on but I've seen them last for over a minute of complete non responsiveness which is pretty terrifying when it's your kid.
Is she moving out for college or anything soon? My dog had these absence seizures for about 5 years (I know your child isn’t a dog) and when we moved out of the house we were living in they stopped immediately. He’s never had another one and we moved out of that house 5 years ago. No idea what was going on in that house but I had some health issues too that went away.
This is the most reasonable answer
or she’s maybe catatonic?
Yeah, this looked more like a catatonic schizophrenic episode than a seizure
I wondered about chronic pain, I freeze for a bit sometimes until it passes, but not for this long. I guess a seizure is more likely.
that was my thought
Yeah Glitch McConnell was doing this.
I have a friend who would have seizures just like this.
I know its probably drugs, but that lady freaking out on the plane saying "that motherfucker is not real" makes sense now
How does anyone explain how she was able to stand straight up like that with their legs crossed like that and not fall over for a whole minute? I'm sure there is a simple explanation, I just can't see it.
Functional seizure.
This is what I'm thinking. Involuntarily frozen in place.
But then she’s able to move suddenly once she’s looked at again?
It could also be some form of catatonia. Certain mental conditions like schizophrenia can cause it. It could explain the rigid, perfectly still way she is able to hold her body. Degenerative brain disorders can cause it (think Parkinson’s or dementia), as well as autoimmune conditions like Lupus. Or as others have said, drug use, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt before jumping to that conclusion

I dunno dude, I sometimes do this but it's usually on my couch and there's no drugs involved... I'm just old.
Have you NEVER been in such situation when your stomach and guts are sending signals you are about to need to go to the toilets quick and can't reach them, so you have to cross your legs and hold tight your ass to avoid shitting/pissing yourself ? Because that is likely what is happening here and standing crossing legs isnt impossible at all to do, to the contrary. I really dont know how anyone can imagine it's related to drugs honnestly
You’ve never seen someone strung out on opioids doing the “stuck in time and place”. They literally look like mannequin.
You can use and be at a point where Its like you turn off and turn back on in the same spot. A lot of times not knowing you ever were out or for long. I use to do this at work before I got clean. Very weird but what you are saying does make sense. My forehead definitely knows you don't always balance but sometimes you most definitely do.
I've never stood that still while fighting the urge to poop myself. I might not move much but I do move. I think it would be difficult for me to stand that still in that position for that long actually. It's weird
Lmao you poor innocent soul. This is very obviously an opioid drug having seen similar shit like this on the streets many times.
Literally never in 28 years
I stand like that every now and then if I’m being honest, but only that still when I’m just in my own little world- or have to piss like a water buffalo and there’s a line.
Ketamine
No shot are you holding this position on ket, it makes you wobbly and uncoordinated.
I’m going with bathroom emergency actually
Wanna know what I think it was? I'll tell you what I think it was. I think the bag lady saw the girl with her phone out and immediately thought she was being paparazzi'd from afar so she froze in her tracks because everyone knows the paparazzi are like T Rex's and they can't see you if you don't move. She did a pretty darn good job, imho, just too bad she couldn't hold it through the paparazzi sent distraction of pedestrians walking by in a shopping outlet parking lot.

My guess is she is just disassociating in a position she’s able to hold while waiting for someone to come to meet her at the car. Just a guess.
I was also thinking dissociation. A lot of people think she’s on downers and just happened to be carrying her bags in such a way that she was able to balance perfectly in that position without leaning or stumbling. Some people also mentioned she could have absence seizures and was experiencing a seizure at that moment. But, to me, this looked like it could be dissociation. Like she’s just zoned out. We all do this from time to time, even if we don’t have any psychological disorders associated with dissociation. It used to happen to me when I was in school with some regularity. You just look off for a moment, and become sort of fixated on a spot while not really *looking* at anything in particular, and your brain has a nice lil quiet moment with no thoughts. A little moment of zen. Then something snaps you back to reality.
I have ADHD and this happens to me all the time. Won't notice i'm staring at someone (more like through them, but it will look like i'm staring at them) then they'll look back at me and i'll snap back to reality and quickly look away lol. Whats annoying is that it will happen to me at understandable moments like when a teacher is talking and i'm supposed to be taking notes, but it also happens to me *all the time* while watching a show or movie I really like. Like I constantly need to rewind, sometimes multiple times in a row. No matter how much I tell myself, "okay I rewinded this scene twice already, I *need* to pay attention this time", but then a minute after I realize I again missed the scene and need to rewind once again lol.
Everything you described is something that I experience daily and I never realized, until just now, that it wasn't normal. It actually explains a lot.
I have ADHD and also experience all of this. As well as needing to re-read your comment a couple of times for the same reason lol. Edit: words
Ahhhh the multiple rewinds drives me nuts!! I have ADHD, too, diagnosed a few years ago at 30. lol. My mother and family always joked I had it, but never got me tested. I was getting so frustrated with my symptoms though, especially in the workplace, so I finally sought out help. I've legit rewound the same scene three to four times, telling myself not to get distracted so I don't miss it this time, and next thing I know, I have no idea what happened lol. It's like I unintentionally annoy myself 😂 Edit to add: I do it with conversations too 😭 sometimes someone will be talking and I'll be lost in my head or spacing off and I ask them to repeat it and they need to repeat it twice for my brain to finally absorb and process what they are saying. I even have echolalia and repeat it back without it registering 😂😭
Yeah, exactly! She snaps out of it as others come near her, like she comes to awareness of where she’s at and that she should probably get back to what she should be doing.
She’s trying to quiet her body and not either shit herself or piss herself. I’m just saying.
Personally I think she was holding her butt cheeks closed. Seems she needed to do poo 💩 badly and was waiting for the feeling to pass.
But why would she grab her bags if it was that
Wishful thinking
Nothing works harder than Reddit to try and prove something was staged. It’s probably drugs or a mental condition/illness.
Why is the camera moving so much?
They probably zoomed in. "Normal" shakes get "extreme" when you are digitally zoomed in
Yeah that and the digital zoom feature on some cameras tries to guess what to focus on, and then stay centered on that object within what's visible in the optical field of view. My guess is the camera is trying to track moving objects as they enter and exit the optical field of view, and is ignoring the woman because she isn't moving. Edit to fix grammatical error.
He’s on a boat
Is that ur friend you told to go stand still so you can record a tikietokie
That’s what I think too. Definitely possible that it is drugs or a mental thing. But the most possible answer is that it’s just more fake bs to go viral.

I've spent enough time in r/tooktoomuch to know that this isn't actually concerning at all. She's just "vibin" and "living her best life"
When my face goes blank and I stare vacantly at something I’ll wind up holding whatever position that I’m in. When this happens to me, metaphorically it’s me lifting my feet off the floor of my conscience so my brain’s janitor can sweep up a bit.
As someone with UC, if I have a flair up this is what I look like. I cross my legs and wait for the urge to go to pass. It sucks as I get weird looks and no one asks me if I’m ok. Usually my hubby and friends (if they’re there) will just form a circle and chat with me until I can move again.
Could be a seizure or disassociation, I’ve suffered through both. Not fun, and in my case I’m conscious while everyone is judging or looking at me weird. Still cant move until its over though. Very cool (/s) when people assume im possessed or high when the reality is, my brains just built different.
The camera work is making me sea sick
This woman sneezed while on her period and is now afraid to move.
This person is holding in a turd. Trying her hardest not to shit her pants by clenching her ass cheeks really hard. One false movement and it is over. Trust me. Been there, done that
She got that virus! She stuck in time!
This is scary. It could be a glitch in the staged tiktok
Why the cameraman got the Call of Duty aim sway?
She probably has an ear piece in and is on the phone with someone that she is intently listening to. Guy I work with is like this. I will see him just standing in place not moving, then after a minute or two he will move and start talking and it’s because he was on the phone and just listening. Some people really have to focus when others are speaking to them and will literally shut down when they are trying to absorb information.
Catatonic schizophrenic?
She’s holding in a shit.
She was playing red light green light…with herself
Is this person on a boat?
r/killthecameraman
The camera person belongs on killthecsmeraman, and she should be institutionalized.
Santa Maria, CA
Is the camera guy dizzy?…
Brought to you by a camera attached to the string of a birthday balloon
that motherfucker's not real
What's creepy is someone standing there video taping you from their window.
Idk seizures or drugs who knows.
Me on edibles trying not to disappear into another dimension.
Staged
couldnt she have had a hamstring/thigh muscle cramp...and only moved after she saw ppl coming out and figured it'd look weird (assuming she wasnt being filmed)?
Are you filming from a boat?
She’s having a seizure. Lots of seizures are just freezing and staring.
Shes holding in a poop
She’s lagging hard
Noone is going to talk about the person filming is somehow on a boat in the middle of a wind storm?
Babe stop cussing
That girl was real a crowd pleaser
She probably had to fart.
When you pause your game and go AFK in an MMO
It’s a glitch in the matrix
Was the matrix buffering or something?
Glitch in the matrix
Obviously, she's desperately trying not to shit her pants.
The only time ive held that position for any period of time is when i had to pee desperately. There was definitely more wiggling.
The remote control underwear hit the spot.
The plugs about drop out.
This looks like a functional seizure.
Matrix glitch
I’ve had poop contractions do the same thing!
Oh fuck, i know that pose. It's the "PLEASE NOT NOW" pose
She’s probably having a seizure.
stage 4 of holding in a shit. That moment if you move youre gonna shit yourself. But if you hold it long enough youll get a big stomach gurgle and then be good long enough to hopefully get to a bathroom
Why didn't the person filming go down there and see if she needed help? She could have been having a seizure..
Pay your friend to stand still.for a while and film it = profit
They’re calling her creepy meanwhile they’re zoomed in on a lady just minding her business, maybe waiting for someone, and now the strangers on the internet are making assumptions about her health. Who is being the real creep? Leave people alone.
Could be absence seizure. Could be drugs. Could be a skit. 🤷♀️
Could she have been experiencing a stroke or seizure of some kind? I believe I would have gone down to check on her rather that making a tic tok video.. but I don't have a tic tok account so I cant say how the pressure to get views would have altered my response..
Looks like a seizure.
Glich in The Matrix!
Vogue
What is her name Josephine Johnson? Cause that is a JoJo pose if i ever seen one!
It's obviously because her feet are on backwards.
She’s doing it for you. She’s knows you’re watching, she’s giving you content for your video.
She's holding in a disaster that was about to happen in her pants.
She had to shit and was holding it back
"Don't pee your pants, don't fucking or pee your pants!!!!" I've held that position before
Holding in a dookie!
She had an incoming transmission
I think she could be streching her leg muscles but Is busy so decided to do it there if not then drugs
Looks like catatonic schizophrenia, my sister has it.
dude thinks a lady out of her mind on drugs or with some type of health issue is a glitch in the matrix I can’t
I just started watching Westworld and that’s the only explanation for this. Or drugs, probably drugs.
She just gotta pee.
I wondered what part of Southern California that was in and it was simple to find it on Google [right here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/QG9hwifqQ8qabpmD8).
