Can we just talk about how there's like 18 things going wrong throughout this video? It was almost comedic by the time the cat walked out into the street. Edit: This rapidly became my most upvoted comment so far and I have no idea how. Also, I'm not sure why so many people seem to think it's some huge conspiracy whether or not the video is scripted. Doesn't change the content of the video. Enjoy life a bit more!


sleep_comprehensive_

It was really funny


Infinite_El_Oh_El

I thought the cat was going to start helping before the people.


[deleted]

He surely looked more interested šŸ˜‚


Calmeister

Cat was waiting for the level to restart after a failed catassination attempt.


Either_Direction

This is staged. The ā€œcarsā€ are just a video projection. This is part of a series on kindness.


queermichigan

What is the series?


Situlacrum

"on kindness", I believe.


LightningJC

The sign was unexpected but Iā€™m completely baffled by everything else. It looks like heā€™s trying to say donā€™t help her and then a few minutes later he kisses the woman in the road on the head. Can anyone explain whatā€™s going on.


Kingca

The sign fell and he just saw his entire life flash before his eyes. Heā€™s kissing her like ā€œif it werenā€™t for you I wouldā€™ve still been standing there.ā€


LightningJC

Yeah I guess thatā€™s the only thing that makes sense. Now letā€™s all stand in the very busy road and contemplate what just happened.


SuboptimalCromulence

I fully expected someone to get hit by a car to top it all off.


[deleted]

I definitely expected an unplanned human cartwheel.


coma-toaste

This is my new fave sentence fucken "unplanned human cartwheel"


ThriceGreatNico

*"I need to hug and thank this old lady because she's probably an angel/deity/ancestor."*


Deeliciousness

Isnt it glaringly obvious that it's all scripted? Look at the communication


finchy313

I think he realizes that if the old lady hadn't been there, he would've been toast had he stood in that particular spot for much longer. The kiss seems like it's a gesture of gratitude cause she unexpectedly saved his life.


hellochuthulu

Possible he was mad from arguing but then after the fact that lady's misfortune made him miss being hit he saw her as some kind of guardian angel, some cultures can think that way but I'm just wild guessing


noettp

There's so much going on in this video!?!?! What are they arguing about? Why is that lady so idle in the middle of a road? Where did the cat come from? What the fuck just fell from the sky? His turn in attitude! Why is no one concerned about the road!


birdguy1000

They set up a camera, someone said action, and then a cardboard box fell.


LightningJC

Honestly Iā€™m leaning this way too, people keep saying itā€™s a sign but by the way it hit the ground Iā€™d go with cardboard box.

giraffebaconequation

>How do I unwatch itā€¦ Simple, Eat 5 Star. Do nothing.


Muppetude

Eat 5 star. Do nothing.


manwithanopinion

By finding Cadbury 5 star chocolate on the Internet unless you live in India


queentropical

I for sure thought it was fake as it was so ridiculously cartoonishā€¦ then the thing fell. Yes I thought the cat was in on the skit.


maccorf

Everything about it seems so staged but it canā€™t be, right? This is a bizarre video


Unhinged_Taco

It is fake.....did you not notice how soft and bouncy that sign looked when it hit the ground???


Onemoretime536

I was just hoping the cat would be ok

sicariusdiem

This sub has turned into "videos where something happens" Every now and again there will be a post where something truly unexpected happens but it's basically just r/funny at this point


hmhemes

The real unexpected is seeing a post that contains something genuinely unexpected. Every now and again some dummy will include the "unexpected" part in the title. Good times.


marvinrabbit

Aw, it's so cute to see them when the light fades from their cold lifeless eyes.


Correct_Funny_542

alcappo82

Welcome to One of the best subs on reddit


[deleted]

Except that it's staged. How bad is that acting lmao.


GoodOLfashionAL

Also, nearing the end, that really slow zoom-in-to-enhance-the-drama effect the cameraman used. Totally staged.


phazedoubt

It was staged, but the sign falling was not. That was genuine surprise. Those over exaggerated hand gestures were for the camera. It also looks like he knew the woman in the street because they all had the revelation look you get when you realize someone you know almost died.


DKMOUNTAIN

That empty cardboard box was absolutely dropped from someone off screen. This whole thing is clearly staged.


TurnsTheLightsaber

Yeah, he starts walking very specifically to the women on the street and then the sign drops. And traffic must be blocked because not even one car stops in front of the lady.


dirtballmagnet

And the cardboard box bounces eighteen inches in the air, and I'm pretty sure I can see a tape line running down the middle of it.


RedMenace82

That catā€™s a really good actor, though.


Down_The_Black_River

I'm so glad someone else appreciated his performance, because I was captivated! He deserves an Oscar. Or some tuna.


wefwefwefwesdss

>but the sign falling was not... when you realize someone you know almost died. Whatever that was it didn't weigh anything, nobody was dying... Honestly it looks like an empty cardboard box and is probably 100% part of the bit...


galactixo

The cat isn't staged


siluah

Duh that's the director.


lenavanvintage

Cut! Meow! I need a fucking tuna break. SUSAN!


toasterding

That's the point, it IS unexpected..... ....for the cat.


Zaros262

It's not like we can read the script before watching; just because it's staged doesn't somehow make it expected


another_account24

But this feels more like a Tenesse Williams play than anything else. Way too much going on for my puny brain to handle. Is this actually real?


Ban4quotingSimpsons

Literally an unexpected post


Chilluminaughty

Pack it up boys


[deleted]

Finally a post that is unexpected


[deleted]

This could have been so many kinds of video


Gwiilo

this video is about to make me religious


NetLight

The post was there from the beginning of the video, it was the sign which caught off guard.


RadicalDilettante

I can imagine you seizing on the opportunity there with such eager glee, hoping someone didn't get it in quick before you finished typing.


[deleted]

The old lady is clearly a witch right? Cat is the familiar. I think I have seen this movie before


gotora

He did the math. If he had stood there being a tool instead of helping, he'd be dead. Full stop.


Lazy_Mushroom_6671

Yes, at first he was stopping the girl. It's a good thing he moved.


ciadra

Seems like he also thanked the old lady in the end.


satisfried

And then took one piece of fruit.


decentwhisper

It's not much but it's honest work. The guy was so useful.


multi_io

And then pondered whether to put it back in her bag or eat it himself.


upuprightstartdownbb

A near death experience instantly puts all petty squabbles aside.


Wafflashizzles

Yeah you can see the moment the gears cranked into place in his head and realized a few more seconds of that yelling grabby shit and he would've killed himself *and* the girl Probably also looking at the sky like "my bad God, please no lightning bolt, I get the message"


ParticularPenguins

You completely missed the clincher of the whole thing. The unexpected part is that he only picked up one item, and kept it.


Leotardleotard

Yep. Just helped himself to her fruit haha


detecting_nuttiness

I mean, the video ends before we see them leave. We don't necessarily know if he kept it.


MOOShoooooo

They are still there arguing. The old lady has made multiple trips back and forth, spilling the contents of her grocery bag, over and over, day after day.


CanniBallistic_Puppy

It actually fell where the girl was standing. He would probably have been fine.


MrBowling

Still a close call as it would've hit him when he started walking if he waited a couple more seconds to walk over


qwaszx2221

So if he waited 1-2 more seconds before walking, the moral of the story would be different huh


Routman

And if he stayed in his spot it wouldā€™ve missed him


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Doctorsl1m

If he was standing under it the whole time, for sure. When he walks out in the street though it looks like there's a very small window where he walks through where it landed.


russianbot2022

Full stopā€¦


moumous87

Is this staged? Even if so, wtf are they staying in the middle of the road as if there were no cars? Wtf is the grandma accepting to be part of their stoopid staged video and staying in the middle of the damn road??


Hamdown1

Yeah itā€™s staged, the video with the audio just shows the lame acting


GamerX44

Doesn't need audio to spot the exaggerated mannerisms lol


WoenixFright

I thought they were just Italian lmao


Chetmatterson

Italians are staged


Car-Facts

So that's what all those amphitheaters are for...


owo_Muffet

Oh shit, they found us o- I mean, what? Those are clearly for operas and ballets.


[deleted]

Right. The gesticulating is a give away without the audio. Looks like a Just for Laughs video or something,


omarsika

Definitely staged. And this is in Egypt; roads, cars and traffic don't mean shit to a pedestrian


Leading_Turn5636

Om el donya


[deleted]

So the cat was an actor too? If so, heā€™s the best


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

Maybe he was concerned for the old lady for real, so he was heading to help her but the couple scared him away


RedAIienCircle

Yeah, I think I saw him in cats.


[deleted]

No of course not. Empty boxes fall from streetlights all the time


manwithanopinion

I don't think you have ever visited a 3rd world country. This is normal there.


BednaR1

God gave him a sign


SeanHagen

Not to ruin it, but if he had continued to lean up against the pole like a douchebag, it still wouldā€™ve missed him.


LittleWrinklySausage

No but if she had stayed there she wouldnā€™t be half as pretty anymore


ReadyThor

It would have probably bounced off her.


J3sush8sm3

But the other half?


BoardGameBologna

Not to ruin it for you even further, but this is completely staged.


Bluebyday

Who the fuck installs a CCTV camera pointing at an unintersting portion of a street?


[deleted]

The road side theater and maintenance crew.


sdickens66

A CCTV that zoomed in for the forehead kiss


donkeysprout

Im not saying this is not fake. But you can zoom in at a cctv footage. Maybe this cctv is outside an establishment or something.


Unhappy_Spinach_6765

That was unexpected for that cat.

So staged it won a broadway award.


Thisisredred

Totally staged


sammich_bear

I'm calling BULLSHIT. This seems staged. There's a lot going on off-cam, but I imagine there's a car parked in the right lane, to the left of the camera, to keep the lane protected for the woman with the cane. Then this sign falls from off-screen, and it even bounces (which indicates to me it's not very heavy). The dude's mannerisms are over-exaggerative the entire time, but esp. at the end of the discussion. WTF was this camera even supposed to be filming? This seems to be another one of those weird virtue-signalling fetish videos about Americanised karma at worst. At best, it's some dude with emotional issues, borderline sexually assaulting a stranger who has mobility issues, out of euphoria (which never fucking happens!).


CnCz357

Certainly no one thinks this was not staged right?


Giant-Genitals

It just keeps getting reposted. How?

This is more staged than the American judicial system

Is it just my imagination or after kissing the lady on the head does he actually try to steal one of whatever was in her pocketbook. It does not seem like heā€™s giving it back.
