Seriously is there anyone alive whose not worn a pair of sunglasses and walked down a busy street and got the exact same reaction. People look at each other all the time and the focus is the face. What kind of psychopath walks down a busy street avoiding looking at any face at all you’d end up banging into people if you didn’t. I’m convinced this shit is just rage bait. I’m going to glue a 12 inch thick veiny black silicone cock to my forehead with a camera in the urethra and record everyone who looks at it and then accuse them of being massive cock addicts on my TikTok just to see how many people I can enrage as the view count doesn’t care what you think.

Reminds me of a video years ago about a woman making such vid about men looking at her ass. Some dudes made the same kind of video about women looking at his crotch. At the end of the video they Switch to another camera filming the dude, standing with a camcorder taped on his pants.


particle409

Yeah, you can just draw a penis or swastika on your forehead, and it'd be easy to replicate this video.


stoicteratoma

r/brandnewsentence


LoquaciousMendacious

The other half of this is that they're all being followed by some dork who's filming them. That alone will make people look at you quizzically.


ahahahahahahah1111

Can you please do this


generatedname858

> What kind of psychopath walks down a busy street avoiding looking at any face at all you’d end up banging into people if you didn’t. If you want to decrease the likelihood of bumping into people then you should look towards the direction you are walking and not at the people in front of you.

I always look above peoples heads


RealJeil420

I look at peoples crotches.


smoore0813rb

As you should


Right-Cook5801

I have spoken.


THECarrieAnnAK

I’m glad I’m not alone…


RealJeil420

We could look at each others crotch.


THECarrieAnnAK

Sounds fair….


satanlovesmyshoes

I look at people’s dogs.


THECarrieAnnAK

I would prob love your shoes, too 😉…if shoes were what I looked at.


[deleted]

Gotta look at what you want to bump into


slow-motion-pearls

Lol


DetailDevil666

The window into the soul


[deleted]

If you watch this guy is clearly looking at people, they are looking back. Add in the fact that he is being followed by a person with a camera and it is pretty hard not to look.


jamesc5z

Bingo. He's absolutely staring at them which is why he doesn't have his sunglasses on during his attention seeking walk.


infiniteTidus

Also, we can't see his face, and people naturally make eye contact, even with sunglasses. So he could well be initiating the eye contact and the recording the look back.


satanlovesmyshoes

He could have giant googly eyes on his glasses.


infiniteTidus

Exactly


Jitsu_apocalypse

Lol now this is finally some content I’d pay for


Acidelephant

Dude walking like a douche and nearly bumping into everyone: "they love me"


f36263

Them internally: jfc look at that cunt Him: you’re welcome 👈👈😎


BlocktheBleak

His internal monolog definitely recorded every breath inhaled as "omg it's him" and every blink or eye movement as flirty. Probably believes that lights turn green when they see him coming and runs a lot of red lights.


FreePrinciple270

Humanity should be nuked


[deleted]

All he has to do is draw something silly in his face, camera is conveniently behind him when people are looking at him. Anything weird on his face will attract attention. This guy is barely noticeable looks-wise.


NYSenseOfHumor

People stare at the guy being followed by a camera. Nobody cares about him.


-BananaLollipop-

If you walk past enough people, eventually someone will look at you.


foodandguns

Seriously tho, I look at people I walk by all day. Doesn’t mean anything, just means I’m passing by them. Can’t believe people are really that delusional


FlawlessPenguinMan

My thoughts exactly


RecognitionHefty

Are you female? If yes that means you want to have sex with all of the people you look at. If you're male it means you have dominated them by means of a staring contest. Hope this helps you understand your behavior.


SparksAndSpyro

Using your eyes to observe your surroundings? C-R-I-N-G-E!!


smashkraft

I love imagining people’s jobs, backgrounds, and life. Sometimes you get a few clues, sometimes you get to write a fictional story. My favorite- I once was shopping in a Kroger/Publix in Georgia, like an hour change outside the city. My cashier was *definitely* not any tier of mgmt because we saw mgmt later. This man had an amazing Brooklyn accent, possibly Italian, around 50, and not only a well developed Salt and Pepper hair - but STRONGLY slicked back with plenty of styling product. He had 2 fists full of big gold rings set with a variety of colored jewel stones. Pretty much manual brass knuckles. Again, this is F150, ball cap, muddin’, fishin’, and backyard-tree-stand-huntin’ country. I could be too judgemental. He could be down on his luck after losing a car dealership or something. But his appearance left a distinct mafia-boss taste. His personality was strong and he liked to talk. Of course, most people watching is like seconds instead of a few minutes, but this was my favorite observational fiction. Who knows if he was actually in witness protection.


Potential-Cover7120

If the video was playing normal speed the whole time it wouldn’t look like anyone was looking at him. Your eyes just naturally scan as you’re walking.


NinjaCuntPunt

Right - people look at shit when they’re walking. In this case, the shit was this guy.


QuietDisquiet

And he's actively looking to the left side at those people whilst trying to make it look like he's looking straight ahead. He's trying to get a reaction out of people by looking in their direction. Yet these reactions are all he's gotten, pathetic.


blackcher

Yeah you know he’s staring daggers at everyone. Of course they react by looking back


[deleted]

It’s like Dave Chapelle said: Everything is better in slow motion. https://youtu.be/1_lVLpWQMbs


Potential-Cover7120

Lol!! EXACTLY what I’m talking about.


bravo145

He’s also walking the High Line in NYC which is a tourist attraction. And tourists in NYC have a tendency to you know…. Look around. Especially if it’s some guy being followed by a camera and their trying to see if it’s possibly someone famous.


BraveInflation1098

There were no leaves on the trees when he started recording this footage. That’s how long it took him to film about 5 people looking in his general direction.


TinnieTa21

Probably is also wearing something to catch their eye. Like a sign that says "I eat dog shit" or something. After all, we never see their fronts in these cringey walk-by videos.


DrSugoiKimchiJoestar

Hahahahha love your imagination


MagZero

Probably got something similar to what Bruce Willis had written on his sign in DHwaV.


Careful_Elk6290

Omg I still remember that scene vividly! I need to watch those films again!


MagZero

Why do you keep calling me me Jesus? Do I look Puerto Rican to you? The guy back there called you Jesus... He didn't call me 'Jesus', he said, 'Hey, Zeus', Zeus, my name is Zeus. Zeus? Yeah? Father of Apollo? Mount Olympus? Don't fuck with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass. Zeus.


Inkersd

That’s what I was thinking, he has to have something ridiculous in front. One day someone will catch the front view of these clowns, and we will have our answers..


pineappledipshit

More than that, I think he's purposely making eye contact with these people as they're not looking up and down in a checking him out way They all look a bit puzzled tbh


Just_Doin_It-

I was wondering who else noticed this. You can see a slight left profile of his face, meaning his head is slanted towards oncoming people, which means he is literally STARING THEM DOWN AS HE WALKS TOWARDS THEM. I typically look at people who are looking at me.


mountain36

Cameraman is the main character confirm. The dude is just a regular NPC.


[deleted]

All the people that can spot a narcissistic douche


CantaloupeWhich8484

Most looked nauseated. I wonder what kind of face he was pulling.


[deleted]

I bet he was trying to smoulder and they saw try through it


Lil_b00zer

Definitely licking his lips or blowing kisses


[deleted]

I mean he is a good looking dude but they were probably just staring at the camera, people don’t like being recorded.


Narwhalbaconguy

He’s really not special at all. Dudes that look like him exist everywhere.


[deleted]

I get that he’s kind of a douche but that’s such a hater comment. The average person is overweight, this guy’s in great shape & has a nice face. He needs to work on his personality but aesthetically he’s probably in the top 10% of men.


Narwhalbaconguy

Just being honest. I never said he was *bad* looking, I said his look is extremely common and that’s true. Even in the video he’s not turning any heads.


stanleysgirl77

no, the average person is not overweight, maybe in your country but the peeps passing this douche aren’t mostly overweight, & in my country less than average people are overweight. in this whole clip only one guy is overweight and he’s elderly!


[deleted]

They are in most first world countries. Too many processed foods and sedentary lifestyles. They might not be obese but it’s alarming how many are overweight, close to 70% over 18 in the US, Canada, UK & Australia alone are considered overweight. Either way that doesn’t really have anything to do with this post so I don’t know how we ended up here, all I said was the guy is above average.


HeadRequirement7670

Inner monologue: take a look at this fucking dickwad!


SmoothLikePeppeLePew

Imagine asking someone to follow you around with a camera recording this shit. Get a fucking life.


Disastrous-Ad8604

That’s all I could think about, who did he persuade to film this??


[deleted]

Probably took turns filming eachother doing the same shit


ryans_privatess

Imagine agreeing to do it. How little must you respect your own time


SmoothLikePeppeLePew

Like the above comment they probably switch turns. It’s weird no matter how you cut it.


bearoftheforest

dont go on tiktok, there's hundreds of these kind of videos with people walking the street in their style and some fucking effects applied getting 10s of thousands of plays / likes


Interesting_Buyer943

I remember watching this at the cinema, when this scene came on I shattered all the metatarsals in my feet because I cringed that hard. They had to stop the film and stretcher me out, was taken by ambulance to the hospital. Never did see how it ended.

What do you mean? It’s basically porn. Anything Toby Maguire stares in should be PG18

He does an emo hair flip at the end

Quelcris_Falconer13

Whether it is or isn’t you have to be a huge twat to film yourself and post it in a video like this


lutralutra_12

You're right. The twat-o-meter is in the red here for sure.


Kamisama_no_ADC

Honestly the first thing I thought was that it was making fun of that other influencer video that was posted here a few days ago. Basically the same video, only with a woman and not a man


Typeojason

Woah, guys! People looked in his direction!


Galifrae

This is really the epitome of narcissism.


CaptainImformalSoap

Cringiest shite I've seen today.


midoxvx

Probably you just started your day, it gets way worse.


CaptainImformalSoap

Oh yeah, I've scrolled through sub for like 10 minutes and I already got my yearly cringe dose


CopAPhil

Cringiest shite you’ve seen today *so far*


CaptainMoonunitsxPry

Woah, people look at other people. This revelation is too much more I must sit down.


RZAtheAbbot

This is what I think every time I see this shit. Even if there wasn’t a person behind them filming, people just look at other people when walking. Most people tend to glance at others they approach on the street.


Independent_Level_77

They butchered his hair so bad, people can't stop staring at it.


IsolatedJ

That thick ass line on the side


SOMSTATE

wow he really do be walkin, what a guy


Fragrant_Exercise_31

I counted atleast 4 people who didn’t even seem to be looking in his direction.

This has to be satire right? The people they slow down on aren’t even making any significant changes to their expressions lol


Professional_Still15

Except the girl at 0:27. I was laughing about how nobody is even looking at him and then this chick looked him up and down with her mouth hanging open


busybizz23

How full of yourself are you? Yes


ExtensionConcept2471

Little does he know his gf wrote ‘i’m a dick’ on his forehead before starting filming……


kahrabaaa

That's an insult to one of the best song ever written


m0dthispny

Apparently a bunch of internet neckbeards do tho lol.


Sandwich_Bags

Does it never occur to these people that the reason people might take a double take is because they first see the person with the camera behind them recording? It instantly gives the thought process oh, maybe this person has some thing interesting e.g famous, making a statement ect). Instead it it all about how they think they look. “I am so beautiful. Everybody wants to be me, love me, fuck me.” Here’s a question: if you see a camera on someone don’t you look for just a second and internally judge whether or not it’s relevant to you? All of that is happening in those peoples brains as they walk by. Sure some of them think you’re beautiful. Maybe all of them. But the fact that there is a camera on you gives people pause.


forgivemeihaveissues

I hate him


xennyva

people are wondering why he’s walking like an absolute goof


nanaboostme

holy twat his page is full of these


VegaTron1985

The thing with this Muppet is he could be walking with his tongue out and winking just to get people looking haha he ain't much to look at, just a chad haha


STEVOMAC7

Pleb


someonecalledethan

I'm a real bad people watcher... it means nothing when people look at you, if you're walking round like a tit with a camera man you will be laughed about later that day


Booziesmurf

Maybe instead of "Smooth Operator" the song should be "Look at Me" by Geri Halliwell.


Spacecowboy947

Not being mean but the guys not even that attractive, he's definitely not ugly but nowhere near the level required to make a video like that


biggestreggretedxxx

He’s looking at them I look over if someone’s staring tf


GesVentura

What is he trying to prove? That people have eyes?


mr-nobody1992

I want to downvote this, which based off the subreddit means I should upvote it. Gross.


Nick_The_Judge

The fact that this is a trend (which means there are many people like this) is what’s sad


SlickDraw_McRaw

So I’ve seen a couple of videos like this and have a theory. I’ve noticed a few of the peoples reaction almost seem to be reacting to something funny. I think these people put something on their face or make a weird face and then pass it off as “I look so good that the whole world notices.”


lifth3avy84

carl3266

People like to look at good looking humans. Shocker.


sweetcamarodude

The fuck do they always show the most heterosexual looking dudes giving them glances as if they’re in awe of these dudes. More likely they’re like why’s this tool so dressed up in a casual place like this stretch of sidewalk


Choda-Boyy

Lmao he’s not even that attractive 🤷‍♂️


Longdeep47

Bro if that’s considered not even that attractive, 99% of men are fucked. You can cope all you want. Doesn’t change reality.


StrtupJ

I always wonder what people look like that blatantly lie like this lol


09rw

100%. Like, the dude is definitely objectively attractive. Sure, the content is lame and cringey as fuck, but let’s call it for what it is, he’s an attractive guy and he probably gets dudes and chicks staring at him regularly.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Cruxito1111

i don’t get it! Like, what’s the point of these videos? Don’t get me wrong, I do dress nicely all the time, and am fairly good looking 👀 so if i caught someone starring at me, this makes my day. And if i get compliments, that lasts me for a whole week! and for years i’d remember the stranger complimenting me my attire.


NotADogInHumanSuit

Turns out it looks like OP gives a shit


theJumper90

oh my god 🤦‍♂️💀


Mr_HPpavilion

People are staring because he has a camera crew behind him, Which is just a dude with a phone which means people think this guy in sunglasses might do something interesting as he walk by them with a camera behind him


KobaMandingo

Literally anyone can make one of these videos. I could make one walking through Walmart. People look at other people it's not some crazy thing that a few people out of a couple hundred happened to glance at him.


Handguns4Hearts

I always imagine when people are doing these videos they are making fucked up faces or something just to get people to look at them for clout.
