If these were real interviews and the interviewees did react like that, they could have gone so much farther with the griefing.

I would stand up, notice the lack of parallax, and tell the guy that its a nice TV... just like pretty much every other real person put into that situation would.

This is what I would do.



Referencing Starship Troopers is always the answer.

Man you guys are fucking skeptics lol. To quote one of my all time favorite comedians:

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

And you really don't think they were able to find 4 people in an entire city dumb enough to fall for this?

Since it's on youtube we are already suspect of anything they happen to show. there's also the title of the video. some part of us knows that it's probably fake.

These people are coming in expecting an interview and have no reason to think otherwise. They aren't on their guard for pranks so when this happens and the other person in the room sells the prank... you can't help but fall for it.

The other thing to note is that we're seeing it through a camera whereas they are really there. Some TVs out there really do look like windows that you could reach through and touch people. They also kill movies for me because of the super realism. I can see makeup lines, edges of prosthetics, etc.

All I know or care about is that when I see a meteorite careening toward a city in South America, I know the Brain Bugs of Klendathu are responsible.

The bugs whacked us Johnny...

Whoever sat down at a computer and typed that into their screenplay, thinking -- "this is the tearjerker line" -- is a fucking God. One of the best lines in movie history.
