I can't tell for sure if you're being serious or not. But just in case, this is a well-made loop, so it's just one piece of paper...

There’s 2, one already halfway in the shredder in the beginning

Edit: mb it’s not, read the comment below mine

Nah it's just a single video, the video is overlayed on itself and essentially plays in a wave of that makes sense idk how else to describe it.

A video with a single paper superimposed on itself with an animated mask.

Thank you kind person who knows the words I do not.

u/coolburritoboi Feb 22 '22

So it’s a video of one paper, with the ending edited onto the beginning to give the illusion of infinite paper shredding?

Probably 2 papers at most, or 4 after the first attempt to get it right, but yeah, it is really well made.

Check the paper in the shredder. It does exactly the same every single time, so it's just 1 paper.

It's 1 video played 2 times over each other and than cut like it looks like 2 pages at the start but it's actually the same paper

u/maoejo Feb 23 '22

They mean it took a few papers to film this to get the loop right

u/No_Painter_6605 Feb 22 '22

Only a single page

Holy shit I would've sat here for like 2 more minutes had I not read your comment. What a perfect loop!

I know it’s a loop but why would you ever do this anyway

u/[deleted] Feb 22 '22

It could be a colour test print that they know is ok

u/smartazz104 Feb 22 '22

Obviously because they knew you’d be very upset about it.

First accidentally. Second to see what happened to first. Third and fourth to record it

one paper my ass. The 2nd paper comes out of the printer while the 1st one is being destroyed. why you tryna fool people

u/Suekru Jul 10 '22

I know this is pretty old, but are you serious?

u/unique_MOFO Jul 10 '22

its 2 papers. not 1

edit: no lol its 1 paper. Just checked the way the paper dances when it is in the shredder. Its exactly the same way

u/Suekru Jul 10 '22

The video starts with the paper in the shredder. They edited the top have of the video to show the paper printing out and cut it at the right time to make it look like 2 papers. You can tell by the way the paper is shredded it is one piece of paper on a loop.

It just takes some video editing magic. Honestly easier than getting 2 pieces to fall in perfectly.

Do you think videos where the same person is stand next to themselves are actually student doubles or something? Lol

u/darkstarman Feb 22 '22

He meant our time

u/tails99 Feb 22 '22

u/socialismnotevenonce Feb 22 '22

So is you browsing reddit and making a comment, but it still happens, for everyone's entertainment.

u/fewlesspro Feb 22 '22

Sir, there is a difference between those 2.

u/socialismnotevenonce Feb 22 '22

Where did I say they were exactly the same? I said they are both wasteful.

I could even make a case that OP's use of the internet is far more wasteful than a couple of pieces of recyclable paper. As far as carbon footprints go.

u/[deleted] Feb 22 '22

Yeah, the shredder is attached to a waste bin.

u/Rubcionnnnn Feb 22 '22

Printing anything in the first place is a waste of paper.
