I vote real. Very few people in Asia (except criminals willing to do life) carry guns so there probably was an expectation that no one would respond that way.


Edit: parkour and this type of stuff will weed out a lot of the kids growing up now.

I don't know. Muzzle flash from the gun looks like it was digitally added to me. This whole thing would be easy to fake with software and squibs. I don't think I buy it.

Here is an example of a prank video made by the German slingshot master Joerg Sprave a few years ago. He did it using a friend's help in preparation for a zombie movie he was hoping to raise funds for. Looks very realistic at first. But you can immediately notice something in his video that I noticed in the video posted here - seems any time a camera is 'dropped' it always conveniently lands in such a way as to capture exactly what they want on video after the 'event' occurs. He convinced a lot of people that he was really seriously hurt. Those that know him (I've been in contact with him a few times over the years) were let in on the joke if they PM'd him on his forum:

Here is the video he posted showing how he did it:

Fake! Pretty good fake, but I agree with etrain16, digitally enhanced.

I blame the tiny screen on my phone

Ha, I have a touch screen lap top that allows me to zoom in while playing video so I can catch things like that! Same when Levoy got shot!

I have a 55" plasma connected to a MacPro Tower I just only use it to watch TV and edit videos and pictures.

It's ALL fake.

Everything, I mean.

'Is Réaltacht ar cleas na súile de bharr easpa alcól.'

An old Irish saying that means, roughly, 'Reality is an illusion caused by lack of alcohol'.

The important thing is.. ah f it, they broke the internet with that last straw of stupid. thanks

 

[The Courier]

I'm voting fake. After the the guy pulled a gun the camera man hung around to see how it was going to unfold? Seems unlikely.

I don't get it? Can't understand a word they're saying.
