Punk.of.Ages · 06-15-2009, 12:45 PM

Oh man, that's awesome!

The guy that got out and felt for something was priceless!

Jetée · 06-15-2009, 12:55 PM

Of course plaid shorts got out of his car!

Much thanks.

If you act like you know what you're doing...

wooÐs · 06-15-2009, 03:31 PM

Call me crazy but I'm pretty sure all of that was rehearsed.

Punk.of.Ages · 06-15-2009, 03:43 PM

It didn't seem rehearsed to me at all...

What about it gives you that scripted feeling, wooDs?

wooÐs · 06-15-2009, 04:15 PM

Seriously?

Dude gets out of his car. Looks both ways several times. Waves his arm up and down to see if there's a string tied within those 18". Then shrugs and walks away. Too animated to be candid imo.

Punk.of.Ages · 06-15-2009, 04:17 PM

I could see it happening...

Plus, it just doesn't look acted out to me.

wooÐs · 06-15-2009, 04:26 PM

I think I'd just keep driving. I mean, with caution of course, because one of them may run out in front of the car since I don't know what they're doing. Dunno - just me I guess.

I'm guessing they did the routine several dozen times and a fair amount either slowed down, came to a complete stop then drove off, or just ignored the entire act and kept driving on at a reasonable neighborhood speed. It's a situation to be wary seeing people near curb proximity, but I'm sure it only worked a handful of times, and the video is edited so it shows only the best results of the experiment. That's what I glean from such prank videos at least.
