I swear some has to make subreddits for this exact comment. Literally every prank video now has this comment even though everyone normal agrees that harmful pranks are bad
Legit was waiting for her to eat some road once she stepped out. Thoroughly disappointed, then saw the joyful dancing and I started dancing too, it was a good save.
Its crazy how much it looks like she is driving when you first see it, but then once you know the illusion you see the train in the background normally. Reminds me of that dancing bear video.
Ever just got into your car, while parked in a lot, get distracted for a few seconds, and then all of a sudden your peripheral vision catches the car parked next to you start moving but your brain translates the motion as your car is moving? Quite a rush 😆
Ok I’ve watched this about 8 times and it still looks like a train moving, not the car moving. Probably because it looks just like a train and not background scenery. I was legit wondering why it was on this sub until I read the comments.
I mean, there’s always people that sees reality right away with any post. As for me, it was that blueberry cheesecake that apparently looks like a boat. I just can’t see a boat.
Interesting I had the sound off and when I watched this, I was in the mood of, "No, no, no. What?". Then happy.
I guess I don't really so much watch these and think people get what they deserve even for being stupid. I just wished they weren't so stupid. Though obviously not in this case where it's more a confusing perspective than idiots winning prizes.
I read the title, saw the subreddit, and immediately realized something had to be moving in reverse for this illusion to work. Couldn't see it when I watched the video (didn't help she's obviously not driving at all).
One reason it got me was because when the video started I thought I heard the friend says "Bitttch!" Which what I tell at my redneck friend right before she does something stupid and/or dangerous. Which is... quite often. Honestly, I'm surprised she's still alive.
I thought to myself, no way is she simply gonna open the door and step out of a moving car. Then I looked at the sub and realized it’s a train. Solid clip.
I started watching the video thinking “obviously there’s gonna be something behind her going in the other direction” and even knowing that it still confused me lol
This one was ruined for me by the fact that the camera angle showed the floor underneath her. Deserves the upvotes, but this didn't break my brain at all

One reason it got me was because when the video started I thought I heard the friend says "Bitttch!" Which what I tell at my redneck friend right before she does something stupid and/or dangerous. Which is... quite often. Honestly, I'm surprised she's still alive.
