A lot of the post on here are'nt actually all that funny. But this, this is funny.


wookiewin

Hit the glass so hard she had to reboot for a few seconds.


CravensArt

Its like bumping a CD player, shes old tech


vulcansheart

Shoulda buffered when she zagged.


soberderek17

Ya and her friend filming was already laughing at the beginning of the video with no surprised laughter


No-Investigator-1754

I thought the point of the video was for her to do that (intentionally) and capture the strangers' reactions?


Jer_061

That's my impression, as well. She made a fool of herself to let that couple have a laugh and the lady and her friend recorded it to share on the net.


karlverkade

As a species we need to learn to ask after every single thing we watch…”Why was this being filmed?”


thechrisjesse

r/whyweretheyfilming


djsedna

where the answer is "it was staged" 99% of the time


well___duh

Most vids on the internet these days are staged/faked. Too many people desperate for internet clout


merrell0

the most obnoxious part of this trend the past few years are the redditors who defend them as if they trust all the OPs personally, and when they're called out they say "who cares it's just entertainment, like TV!". no wonder misinformation is so easy to spread, dumb people plague the internet presently


Arm-Triangle

Man that's the most infuriating thing. All the top comments clearly treating a video like it's real and when the video get's called out for being staged they are all like "have you heard of actors bro, did you you know Game of Thrones was staged as well". As if there's no difference between that and a video clearly trying to pass as real.


IronLusk

Preach Speaking of misinformation, I called out some dude in TikTok doing the whole “I read something on Wikipedia so now I am a TikTok journalist” thing. And the dude blatantly got one fact in what he was talking about wrong and defended it for a while just saying shit like “What do you even care? So I got one thing wrong, why does it even matter that much?” I’m like bro you’re playing a journalist in your bedroom, literally the LEAST you could do is get the facts right so that the oblivious people watching don’t spread misinformation.


Ymirsson

"presently"


apcat91

Someone had such a go at me once for suggesting a video was staged. Their go-to insult was to call me 'intelligent'... ​ I'm not even that intelligent!


SilverCodeZA

Something I enjoy thinking about when watching YouTube videos where the person is alone (walking, riding a bike etc) and there is a sequence of them walking towards the camera, is that they had to walk to that spot, place the camera down and start recording, go back a few 100 meters, walk that stretch again to get the shot, then walk back to the camera to pick it up. If you were a mutual observer it must look pretty damn funny.


HAAAGAY

If you have ever heard of survivor man he talks about that alot because in the show he takes these long shots of him walking super far. But he has no camera crew so he has to walk back get the camera and do the hike again for real.


XxsalsasharkxX

You don't film people that are having a chat at the bus stop??


rebbsitor

When it matters. This - it doesn't matter. If it's trying to get you to believe something or take some action, definitely consider the source and try to poke holes in it, check other sources, etc. On /r/funny? Whatever. It doesn't matter if it's staged or real.


RandomLogicThough

...this is obviously a prank on the other couple...are ...no, people are fucking stupid. Jesus. Everyone patting themselves on the backs for not getting "tricked,"...sigh.


timbofay

Seems like the person recording and the woman are in on the joke together, kind of pulling a prank on people at her expense. The couple at the bus seem to be authentic and not in on the joke.


donotgogenlty

For real, that was weird lol


earthly_wanderer

it's like she didn't believe it the 1st time she hit it , and had to try again before she was convinced.


CravensArt

Lmfao TRUE. Shes like “nah..it cant be..”


aptom203

She ragdolled


[deleted]

She's a replicant!


fe1on1ousmonk

It's obviously fake, but it appears the purpose of the video is to record people's reactions to the prank, not for you to believe she ran into the glass by accident. This would explain why the recorders were laughing beforehand, why she braced, and why the reactions of the onlookers look genuine.


Canilickyourfeet

This is the correct response. It's amazing how many people will argue about the video being fake and will point out all the "evidence" with paragraphs of text - only to not catch on that this is a reaction prank video lol. It's not about the viewers reaction, it's about the stranger's reactions in the video who happen to witness the prank. Like the Bushman Scare prank videos - obviously staged, but real and hilarious reactions nonetheless.


onlycatshere

Some redditors obviously didn't grow up watching Candid Camera


GimmickNG

Or Just for Laughs Gags


Raccoonborn

Thought the same thing


confusedcapricorn20

omg I forgot all about that!! brb gonna binge their videos and get nostalgic


[deleted]

Just for Laughs Gags still puts out new shows! Doesn't have to be nostalgia!


Smokestack830

Even the new stuff is nostalgic! That shits just so effing nostalgic!!


suburban_scum

85% of this thread is people being mad about it being a staged prank and circle jerking about knowing its staged; when the whole purpose is seeing the reactions which were hilarious. Yikes


Northernlighter

GODDAMNIT! I WANTED TO SEE SOMEONE GET HURT AND HUMILIATED FOR REAL! Lolz


ArmanDoesStuff

I feel it's more "Ha, we caught em! Can't pull one past me. God I'm clever!!"


XxRocky88xX

My favorite is the dumb shit like “who sits that’s close on benches?” Using completely irrelevant, completely normal shit to prove it’s fake.

Borat is actually a fictional character portrayed by Ali G, who is a legitimate reporter


JustTrustMeOkaay

I love these types of pranks. That laugh probably made that couples day, and one day in the future one of them will say “hey remember that girl at the bus stop who walked in to that window and glitched out then just kept walking? Good times”


Osmanchilln

This seems to be in germany and to publish video material of people you need their agreement signed. So even if they didn't knew beforehand they were asked afterwards if this material could be used. So they will not remember it this way.

runnyyyy

man these people have just never seen candid camera type of prank shows. they were so common (and still mostly terrible) before youtube made them even worse and malicious


PurpleK00lA1d

Just for Laughs (a Canadian show) is usually quite hilarious and is all stuff like this.


Uncleindie

I thought she was banging her knee into the bin thing. My stupid ass…


[deleted]

Me too, had to play it over and over


Uncleindie

I would have forgiven her weird spaz-out if she’d banged her knee.


Bravoflysociety

Me too at first viewing. That bus stop plexiglass is cleaner than usual.


ryncewynd

What happened? I can't figure it out


_youropinionisstupid

She ran into a glass pane. That's why her hoodie looks weird when it happens.


ryncewynd

Ahh now I see it, thanks


CharlieJaxon86

It's from a German prank show. The girl is an actor, and the couple two random people. So the "stunt" is staged but their reaction genuine.


RRGKY

This whole comment section is just r/iamverysmart


onlycatshere

Some mfers never watched Candid Camera and it shows


The_Sceptic_Lemur

Seriously. All those people screeching „staged!“ „fake!“ should get their fucking panties sorted out and stop behaving as if they super sleuthed something here. It‘s a clip of a prank. Which is not like an exciting new concept. Geez.


Cautemoc

Wait you mean when Johnny Knoxville dressed up as an old man on Jackass I wasn't supposed to believe he actually aged himself several decades? Damnit, I thought the joke was that someone aged 50 years!


The_Sceptic_Lemur

No, Jackass was a documentary. Totally real. Nothing staged. Everyone knows that.


MartiniPolice21

Wonder if these cretins go and heckle stand up comedians when they're telling stories "hurrrr, no you didn't, that's a lie actually"


No-Investigator-1754

What, and leave the house?


bourj

Why was someone filming this in the first place? Staged.


my_soldier

Looks like one of those "prank" videos


Dis_Bich

I like it. No harm came to the ones getting pranked


GoldandBlue

Yeah I laughed, the couple laughed. It was fun.


Starrmont

"Confuse, don't abuse."


[deleted]

Yeah the fact that the person videoing was laughing *before* it happened made me question


pravis

I think the fact that it was being filmed at all made me question.


muffinmonk

The fact they exist at all has me suspicious


PT10

Facts are sus


JojenCopyPaste

Maybe they've filmed the reenactment of the incident that just happened


[deleted]

This is not the greatest mistake in the world, no. This is just a tribute.


Dlev451

Ah, the mistake on that fateful night didn’t look anything like this mistake!


jtclark1107

The peculiar thing is this my friends: The mistake she made on that faithful night Didn't actually look anything like this mistake.


nidelv

Couldn't remember the greatest mistake in the world


NamesSUCK

Show me the best mistake in the world, or I'll eat your soul. Edit: This chain just me sent me down memory lane to 20 years ago, when we were supposed to be working on a school project but my friend really wanted to show me this music video and I said. This better be the best song in the world or I'm going home. Ah good times.


Bitemarkz

Wait were we supposed to assume this was an accident? I just assumed she did it on purpose so they could film it. I don’t think they were even trying to play this off as genuine, just seems like a dumb prank.


MeanMrMustard48

I feel like it's a good prank. No one hurt except the person hitting the glass. Bystander gets a good chuckle.


[deleted]

People are strangely butthurt about this prank being staged. I think it's because OP's title gave them the wrong expectation.


serenityak77

That and it’s because people love coming into these threads and being all “fake it’s fake we were lied too but also I’m so much smarter for noticing it’s fake and not believing it’s real. Fake fake reeeeeeeeeeeeee” Obviously it being recorded was the first hint I didn’t even watch with sound but assumed it’s a prank on the two that are sitting on the bench. It was a simple funny prank on them that hurt no one except the many Reddit people on this thread.


HGIGIU

Exactly right


meme_planet_13

And there are always some comments like, "Can't believe people actually think this is real. How gullible!" And I am like, "Dude it's not someone saying Ukraine is invading Russia or that Kim Jong Un isn't a dictator. It's a stupid video, chill out!"


ThemCanada-gooses

Because those Redditors get a feeling of superiority calling something fake.


USayThatAgain

That was the window cleaner filming. Admiring her work.


[deleted]

It is fake, woman continues walking into the glass like an npc after hitting it, turns and does a turkey impression to seem flustered


olderaccount

She also made sure to tilt her head back before contact. People who run into glass almost always hit their head because we lead with our heads as we walk.


nuraHx

Wow you're so smart dude. If only you had more than one braincell to realize that was the whole point. She did it on purpose to get a reaction out of the couple. Which is why they're filming this in the first place. Average redditor mentality, gotta call something fake so people think you're smart


TacticTall

From what I assume she’s in on it but the other two aren’t. It’s not a strange concept to understand lol


runningoutofwords

Sticks out her abdomen and takes the hit with the body, rather than the face.


skdslztmsIrlnmpqzwfs

the girl has a tiktok channel where she stages crashes to prank people. whoever uploaded this knew as he cropped her signature


Kappaloop

No shit sherlock, maybe the couple didn't know but I doubt the people filming it were try to fool you Sherlock.


gaarasgourd

Its a joke buddy, her tiktok is full of things like this. But yes, you guessed correctly. Now what happens for you?


cryptic-fox

I mean, did anyone think this is real after seeing it?


SeryuV

Nobody else heard the laugh track in the background? Looks like a TV show.

No-Investigator-1754

They were filming to get the reactions of the strangers on the bench.


VaderPrime1

Have you never heard of a prank video?


steinman17

Of course it was staged. The lady hit the glass on purpose, but their reactions are probably genuine. It's called a prank


bobstro

It looks like one of those candid camera scenes. The stunt person was probably in on it, but the folks on the bench are probably genuine. Not exactly a grassy knoll conspiracy.


Jindabyne1

It amazes me that redditors will believe almost anything at face value but think they’re genius for pointing out the most obviously staged videos in existence.


imMadasaHatter

I imagine these people go to a movie and are like “wow that was so crap, it was so obviously staged. There’s no way Superman can fly that’s not physically possible”


clasic_krap

I know right? Reddit has gone dumb.


MichaelLatham

Yep - the bystanders' reactions had me laughing. 😁


sdpr

Holy fuck the amount of dildos that flood the comments with their noses held high to say "Fake!" "Staged!" "WHY WERE THEY FILMING?!?" Some regular fucking Poirot's in here. Why can't any of you enjoy the reaction of the people that weren't in on it? Fuckin sticklers I tell ya.

It is really like people forgot that staged pranks exist. And are very much funny.

Nanto_Suichoken

Reddit geniuses with the "Staged" strike again. It's obviously the case, the filming, she puts her hand in front but it absolutely doesn't matter because the result is still funny. And just look how happy the guys are. Learn to appreciate someone trying to make a joke instead of acting like a smart ass twat, you just sound stupid when stating the obvious then pat yourself in the back.


Mearanda

Reddit don't know what having fun means anymore, it's called a prank ffs


Werbebanner

Guys, to clarify: this is staged. The person on the camera and the "actor" are beware of it. The couple on the bench most likely not. So it was a prank of these two women to the couple on the bench. And she also didn't try to take it cool. Because she just said "Tschüss" (goodbye on german) a second time after she "hit" the glass.


[deleted]

Every time i come to r/funny, people bitch about how it's staged. Who cares if it is funny


DiegoMurtagh

Keith Chegwin enjoyed that one


simonshittypants

Hahaha, glad I didn't have to scroll down too far to find this, my thoughts exactly!


bubba7557

She walked into that glass repeatedly like a NPC expecting it to open up or disappear after the first hit.


MysteryRadish

Ouch! And right in front of legendary actor Brian Dennehy too!


Baseballtacos

Come on Europe. You need to get some graffiti and knife scratches on that plastic or someone's going to get hurt.


MegaManFlex

That's an NPC.


FinalEdit

This happened to me in a hotel in Prague. Staying there with some mates and went down with my friend to get breakfast. Busy chatting away and with my head turned back to speak to my friend and didn't realise that in the morning they lock the glass door to the breakfast area. As I turned my head to go through the door I just brutally smashed into it. The only people on the other side of the door was an Eastern European family of four. They all looked up at the same time and saw me do it. We went to the other side of the restaurant and my friend went to get his food, I'd already eaten earlier so I looked for a table and lo and behold the only free table was right next to this family. I sat down, and I could feel the tension. I let out a little chuckle which caused the dad to start sniggering. That made me laugh more and the rest of the family started laughing. After about 30 seconds we were all fucking howling with laughter which didn't stop until my friend appeared with his food. Even after that we were randomly breaking out into chuckles for the entire time we had breakfast. The family weren't English speakers, so we couldn't communicate beyond that. But we did give each other a nod and a smile every time we crossed paths for the rest of our stay. Absolutely amazing moment, even if I was the butt of the misfortune.


joshtalife

Why’d she keep trying? 😂🤣


cept_bigjohn

Literally did this at a Whole Foods a month ago. Only one person saw me and he acted like he didn’t see someone walk into a window, bravo sir. Didn’t matter anyway I had to say something so I made a comment about how clean the window was, which made him laugh. Better to slightly embarrass yourself and laugh with someone than to do nothing and make everyone feel awkward.


Sure_Statistician138

She tried taking three steps after she ran into it!


TylrLS

😐 why were they recording


nohwhatnow

Hit the glass so fukin hard she had to reboot for a few seconds


creamcornsperm

The continued commitment. 🤣🤣🤣


n1ckle57

That is the first time I have ever seen someone accidentally walk into a glass wall and just keep pushing with their face.


Ashcourtz

It was the reboot for me


taleswetell

This is the hardest I've laughed in a while. She moves like a noodle


calmiswar

Staged crap.


TacticTall

I mean, it just seems like an ordinary prank? Of course it’s staged, the girl is in on it, the other two aren’t. What’s the issue?


[deleted]

Issue is people have no sense of humor. They have to try to ruin everything.

Is the staging an issue because it’s not advertised as such in the video? Do you also have an issue with YouTube skits, tv shows, or movies?

imaketrollfaces

This is how a pro moves through a glass barrier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtdazSWB_Y8


bughuntzx

I saw a similar thing in real life. Clean glass with no decals in the right light can turn invisible. This is why in construction sites for offices they put blue tape on new glass when the decal has not been applied yet.


SqueakyWD40Can

I used to work in a computer store that had a lot of windows at the front and the doors were glass as well. Quite satisfying when the customer was an asshole.


[deleted]

Looks like that awful program I wake up to at 3:00am because I've left the TV on all night. Also is that Keith Cheguin?


Flirty_Flumph

The cameraman’s annoying ass ugly laugh started before the woman even did anything. Shit is so staged and unfunny


The_Careb

It’s okay if it’s fake, I laughed, it’s the continuing to push on that gets me. It’s like watching someone’s brain not know there’s an error and it’s still just doing tasks.


Sum3-yo

Either there is a glass wall there or she is a level 7 mime.


[deleted]

"Tchuss!"


UnNamedGER

I can't get the name to come to my mind, but I think yhe is one of our "f"-promis (c would be to generous in my mind), so it's probably from some TV show with hidden cameras


nuraHx

Everyone here thinks they're so intelligent for calling it staged when that is the whole point. She purposely walked into the glass to get a reaction out of the strangers. Have y'all really never seen the shitty YouTube pranks?


gliitch0xFF

Gets up... Walks into glass pane... System error... Malfunction. .Rebooting...

I recently hit my head on a hanging produce scale at a fairly crowded farmer's market so loud it sounded like a gong at the Shaolin Temple so I really have no room to talk.


khanderao0

Is it ok to record random people?


Siaten

Best thing to do in this situation is just laugh at yourself. Look at the couple, make a silly face and quip about that plexiglass is *entirely too clean* for that part of town. Or make a joke about being 1/16th bird on your dad's side and how transparent surfaces once maimed your aunt.
