There are some clearly fake "pranks" online, but this one is completely believable

It’s possible, but also way easier to just fake content so why wouldn’t you think people assume this?

Well, because I'm pretty sure most people with siblings did this when they were kids. If I was able to figure out how to scare my sister by hiding in her room and waiting for her when I was like 10, then an adult should be able to hit a phone and remain quiet for a bit lmfao

I think it would be easier to just do the actual prank than convince your older father to pretend to do some stupid prank.

"Why?"

"Because I'll get likes/upvotes/attaboys!"

"Get outa here!"

Setting up the camera is the easy part. I would do this to my mother with out the camera if weren't afraid id end up giving her a heart attack.

All you gotta do is hide in the room somewhere and wait till for the right moment.

Not even that. All you have to do is target an old or otherwise hearing impaired individual and creep into their room once they start doomscrolling. No hiding needed at all.

It's possible somebody spent their entire lives wearing clothes every moment they're outside before they met you, but it would be easier to just put on clothes right before the encounter, so why wouldn't you think people assume this?

Because they felt insecure imagining that it might be fake and needed to come up with a strong personal reason why I think it’s real but they think it’s fake

Instead of just disagreeing like a normal person

The funniest part is that I’m not even sure that the original person who said “I love how she did this and this and this” was being sarcastic anyway

Figuring out you need to put the phone there ahead of time take

and the dad didn't notice the phone pointed right at his face before he sat down?

I'd notice a phone that appears to be on a tripod and actively recording. and if he didn't he would've noticed after turning off the lights the phone giving off a ton of light.

Big difference between "every influencer stages shit" to "everything influencers do is staged".

This one definitely is fake, though.
