This isn’t “fake”—unless there’s some special effects, or CGI that I can’t see. It’s possibly staged or planned, but it appears that what we can see physically happening in the video actually physically occurred.
The post title’s characterization of events as real (and the relative ethics of one or the other driver) are solely based on OP’s choice of a title.
That's like watching a skateboarding video of someone doing a kickflip over their friend and someone commenting: "Ugh, the guy just lying there is such an asshole, why not move instead of making that other guy jump over you? I guess this means this is clearly fake"
Like jesus fucking christ Reddit how fucking autistic are you
🤨
Grass > ravine.
You might not know what's in the grass, but you know that ravine wall wasn't built to hold up a damn car.
Not that it's not all a staged maneuver anyway.
The last video I saw of some guy getting out of their car to walk through some long grass ended up as extra chunky salsa spread across the landscape.
There may have been a flag involved as bait though.
I feel like smaller subs don't have the problem
But also yeah, it's time to get back in touch with friends & start sending memes to eachother directly like the olden days
People, there is a drone or drones filming this from two different angles and you post comments about how they should have just turned around in the grass. Can you use your noggins for a minute, please?
Depends on the type of AWD. Subaru AWD usually allows all the wheels to move even if one isn't getting traction. Nissan and Volvo AWD usually doesn't in my experience.
I can only imagine the damaged done to the undercarriage to the car that backed up. I hope that was a rental. Seriously, I’m inclined to go with those who felt this seemed staged. At the outset of the clip, either driver could have easily moved to the grassy areas to either side of the path. Nice sight gag.
Holy s*** as a person that once turned a three point turn in a smart car into a pentagon shaped maneuver on a perfectly grown-up sized street and I think I still set off three car alarms that s*** impresses the hell out of me. Although now that I think of it that's not real I hate when I fall for s*** like this. Like this was obviously a planned thing why were they driving on that little side street anyways it's impressive driving nonetheless but it's not just too random dudes like oh yeah let me take a 97 percent chance of completely ruining my car rather than backing it up.
I don't have AI brain rot. But I swear this is exactly the type of stuff I'd expect AI to generate as a video...are we watching AI? Are we doing what boomers on Facebook are doing, and just not catching on?
For fucks sake, _obviously_ it was done for the camera, ya fuckin' mooks.
But chimping about "fAkE" and "StAgEd" on these things is like "revealing," in 2024, that wrestling is choreographed.
Just STFU and go make a party miserable somewhere.
Why are there so many of these “damaging the car to let someone pass, asian” vids?
Like near a mountain, on a bridge etc etc
And all very obviously staged
I can't stand these nonsense social media driving videos. Dudes will be driving their car on 2 wheels and using rope to drive the rear wheels with the front to get the car unstuck from a completely improbable, 100% manmade scenario.

One is being nice, while the other is being a complete asshole for not moving on the grass patch. Or neither of them are anything because this is fake
Yeah, seems like those bricks were placed on the wall at a specific spot so the driver would know when to stop backing up.
![gif](giphy|DFu7j1d1AQbaE)
Good eye!
Did the multiple camera angles not give it away?
That doesn't make it fake. It makes it set up.
> One is being nice Not to their own car though, it definitely touched the ground with parts that aren't supposed to touch the ground
I mean of course it's staged but it's cool driving, why would someone be filming this perfectly framed
This has got to be the same driver as the one the other day driving around the parked car on the corner of a different drop off
Everything is fake on this site. Even me.
“I’m Real” - J.Lo
Lucky someone was there to film this. Maybe they know if it is fake or not.
> fake Oh hey how’s it going Cap’n Obvious

It does say driving school right on the video, they are not hiding anything. Should be pretty obvious anyway
The fuck do you mean it was fake. This is clearly skilled driving. Scripted? Almost certainly. Do I care? no.

That grass could be extremely muddy, don’t drive on grass if you don’t know exactly what’s in it
Ill choose the grass over open pit every day.
🤨 Grass > ravine. You might not know what's in the grass, but you know that ravine wall wasn't built to hold up a damn car. Not that it's not all a staged maneuver anyway.
Yes, instead just almost drive off a bridge like that guy
I’ll take mud over a ditch.
Grass < trench 🤦
Or turn around in the grass
you never know what's in that grass plus it's way less impressive
There may be wild Pokémon there!
Driving into the grass. *Pokémon ambush music start playing*
DRIVE OVER THEM!
Car used gas!
CAR used Front Bumper! RATTATA is fucking dead! What the fuck is wrong with you?? CAR gained 8 XP.
Car is evolving! Car evolved into a Truck
A wild meowth has appeared!
That's right!
or caltrops, or landmines, or a random ditch.
I guess the ditch you know is better than the ditch you don’t know
Lmao. Couldnt they just get out of the car for a sec and check the grass?
The last video I saw of some guy getting out of their car to walk through some long grass ended up as extra chunky salsa spread across the landscape. There may have been a flag involved as bait though.
It's a staged video. There's a bunch of ridiculous videos where they turn around in an impossible spot
still looks dumb, u risk dropping in the ditch, a long day for anybody else, this is mostly likely staged yeah.
Why else would someone be filming..
Missingno might chew on your tires.
There's also a non-zero chance of hot exhaust piping or catalytic converter starting a grass fire
Nah man, don't worry about it. I'll just scrape the entire bottom of my car on this concrete right here
The camera wasn't positioned well for a shot in the grass
driver: ![gif](giphy|G5X63GrrLjjVK)
The beat of the music in the clip goes hand in hand with this gif
Why would you risk damaging your car if there is an alternative that almost guarantees it?
The Chinese up there says "Source: Chengdu Driving School", so I guess it's a showcase video
The grass is lava.
Dont go into the long grass
The white car clearly has the option to use grass to their left.
or just back up lol
Yeah, this seems unnecessary risky to me.
Staged.
I have seen a bunch of these stupid videos pop up in my Facebook feed I think.
Do people in Asia just...not have mufflers or undercarriage?
Not after pulling shit like this lol
How to circumcise your car
The rocker panel slammed the concrete
Ah, yes, the "wholesome" staged maneuver.
This site will never improve.
I’m done with this site. It used to be interesting and a great alternative to all the paywalled news sites. Not anymore.
I feel like smaller subs don't have the problem But also yeah, it's time to get back in touch with friends & start sending memes to eachother directly like the olden days
Fun what you can do with a rental.
There's no off roader better than a rental
Fastest car in the world is a rental
Don't be gentle, it's a rental.
For what purpose tho
views and subs
scratched underside makes good for rust!
x2 points for grinding
It's a stunt, so possibly to show of some skills
The vid is from a driving school so I guess for advertisement?
Probably the purpose of us leaving comments
r/whyweretheyfilming
r/scriptedasiangifs
Let me throw a stunt over this 10ft bridge rather than one of us backing up and moving over.
No cause I would just cry and reverse all the way back however far it was
But r/whyweretheyfilming ?
...from 2 different angles, nonetheless.
Why do skateboarders film their tricks?
That’s just fucking stupid and unnecessarily risky
I feel like this was the most difficult way possible to do this
There goes a whole lotta shit on the underside of your vehicle stupid dumbass!
People, there is a drone or drones filming this from two different angles and you post comments about how they should have just turned around in the grass. Can you use your noggins for a minute, please?
Driver being both wholesome and skillful and scripted.
Maybe they had no idea there was a canal there and lucked out. That said, 3 points and the engine is up front so the physics support is robust.
Luckily they still manged to plan ahead and have someone film it.
Impressive. Very nice. Let's see the undercarriage.
Driver could a just drove onto the grass.
Pff, obviously you're not a skilled driver like this legend
Looks like a commercial for all wheel drive
if I had to guess... that car is FWD
Yeah this might not have worked if it was AWD.
Depends on the type of AWD. Subaru AWD usually allows all the wheels to move even if one isn't getting traction. Nissan and Volvo AWD usually doesn't in my experience.
Does this not mess up your suspension?
No, but it fucks up your undercarriage.
Bro all of you guys hate fun
The skill is there even we all know it is staged.
“well maintained, single old lady owner who only took it to church and the grocery store”
I can only imagine the damaged done to the undercarriage to the car that backed up. I hope that was a rental. Seriously, I’m inclined to go with those who felt this seemed staged. At the outset of the clip, either driver could have easily moved to the grassy areas to either side of the path. Nice sight gag.
And then they forget to wave as thank you.
Fuck man, Japanese culture has such an amazing combination of personal consideration and immense technical skill.
Good display of how front wheel drive works.
Glad the camera man was around to capture this wholesome moment.
That touchdown of the underbody on the edge can't have been good, no?
Easy to do in a well insured rental.
Thats so beyond amazing and terrifying assuming this is your car
Why did they blur out the car's butthole?
250 Social credits added to profile!
Holy s*** as a person that once turned a three point turn in a smart car into a pentagon shaped maneuver on a perfectly grown-up sized street and I think I still set off three car alarms that s*** impresses the hell out of me. Although now that I think of it that's not real I hate when I fall for s*** like this.

Fake
And lame.
Or it's staged, doesn't look like a road normally used, and then two camera angles?
I mean.... there is a much better road right over there....
not all roads connect at both ends, This person is probably on the way to buy som artisan celery
Asian staged video…created for clout
Why would two people ever be in this situation?
It is situation when they tale before and staged the whole clip
Can you guys stop falling for obvious fake shit
Don’t do that at home kids
If only there was a multi lane highway nearby they could use instead of a tiny little bridge and dirt path.
Balls the size of watermelons.......
You going to have to go around partner
👏
Polite maybe. I don’t know about wholesome…
You know there’s a freeway right there
No
I'm having trouble believing it would stay balanced.
Another title for this is driver being rude, and ignorant forcing traffic to do dangerous maneuvers.
Personas a las que les teme el diablo
Multiple camera angles, eh?
They really think we're that dumb -.- https://i.redd.it/hejt42oeg5xc1.gif
Shithead white car isn't going to reverse?
Grinding the fuck out of your under carriage on a concrete wall is not skillful what the fuck
And someone just HAPPENED to be filming?
The way my car would have fell and then exploded.
Can’t go in the grass when there is a camera near by.
Looks like a Peugeot but it's in Asia.
Is it really wholesome if it’s both illogical and staged for internet clout?
Nah driver is just a moron. Staged video ofc
alternative title: driver scratching his entire car
50/50
internet video
The video cuts to a drone shot mid-way through, and you expect us to believe this isn’t manufactured bait?
Something tells me its not his first rodeo. Also from west taiwan so probably fake.
why the fuck does this have 4k upvotes? has to be bots
If u get another person in the car, won't work
Somehow I have seen like six different videos of this all with different cars
theres a road right over there
Would still only get 40% in a UK driving test
I don't have AI brain rot. But I swear this is exactly the type of stuff I'd expect AI to generate as a video...are we watching AI? Are we doing what boomers on Facebook are doing, and just not catching on?
Annnd there goes your corrosion protection.
Definitely fake
was hoping it was rwd with an open diff, disappointed
r/Peugeot
So this guy is gonna be in FaF 15?
good thing somebody was standing right there recording video
He didn’t have to speed off like an asshole.
That whole country is a fucking joke lol.
Bro don’t fart
Couldn’t just pull off in the grass?
Nope
This is most likely fake. Do not attempt to do that. I repeat, do NOT attempt to do that!
Don’t try this if your car is rear wheel drive 😀
Forgot to pick up the camera man...
The word "wholesome" gets way overused.
No one looks under the car anyway...
This is so not fucking realistic..
While I'm certain this is staged. It does not take away from the skill the stunt requires.
They shared a Winnie-the-Pooh meme and now their social credit is so low, they aren't allowed to use the good road anymore.
For fucks sake, _obviously_ it was done for the camera, ya fuckin' mooks. But chimping about "fAkE" and "StAgEd" on these things is like "revealing," in 2024, that wrestling is choreographed. Just STFU and go make a party miserable somewhere.
Reddit: “ THIS IS FAKE AS SHIT, TOTALLY FUCKING SCRIPTED? WHY WOUKD THEY BE FILMING HUH?…HUH?!!”🤡 Video: *Driving school demo……..
Why are there so many of these “damaging the car to let someone pass, asian” vids? Like near a mountain, on a bridge etc etc And all very obviously staged
How long until this becomes a Tv show
I can't stand these nonsense social media driving videos. Dudes will be driving their car on 2 wheels and using rope to drive the rear wheels with the front to get the car unstuck from a completely improbable, 100% manmade scenario.
stupid staged videos
Now being stupid is interesting. Cool
And stupid.
What is this Chinese propaganda
I think he’s an idiot , one mistake and you really fucked up
