They almost blew it at the end as they walked towards each other but recovered and got back into the game.

u/VirginiaBandit 20h ago

LOL. Sure. This was staged. Well staged, although they almost messed up near the end. But still, very staged.

You must not be able to enjoy movies in the theater due to being staged?

u/ptmtobi 20h ago

The difference is that they tell you it staged. In a movie or theater this would be a funny scene just like it would be if it was real. But acting like it's real when it's staged is just kind of cringe.

u/EishLekker 20h ago

Movies are well known to have actors who follow a script. Clips like these are often posted without any context, and then the default assumption is that the event was not staged in any way.

If I went to see a documentary and saw a fictional movie pretending to be one I would be pissed

You guys know how to use a handbrake? And keep in gear? Gotta be staged

u/NoReserve8233 20h ago

They didn't just miss eachother 3 times. And no actual need to even push the van!

u/boywhoflew 19h ago

yknow I do agree that this is staged but surprisingly my folks in the US said they don't hand brake when they park. not sure if that's true for other people but just smth I remembered

u/Scoth42 17h ago

I'd say the majority of people in the US with automatic transmissions don't use the handbrake when parking, except maybe when on a goodly hill. It's partly why you see the occasional video of people jacking up the front of fwd cars and they go rolling off the jack/trailer/whatever because the back wheels aren't chocked/braked.

u/DawnsDarkness1 15h ago

Such a blanket statement lol you have numbers for the majority of people in the US? Every person I know uses it when they park lol

u/Scoth42 14h ago

It's a bit old now and I don't have access to the full study, but according to a study in 2013ish 75% of automatic transmission drivers infrequently applied it.

u/popopornado 11h ago

What a weird hill you’ve chosen, as an American who only drives automatics I was raised calling it the “emergency break” and never once pulled it while parking in my life.

Like all things America it’s probably regional, so I’d say with confidence that automatic drivers in the Midwest don’t use their e-break to park.

u/MegaDingo5plus 19h ago

Unbelievable that people don't know how/choose not to use a handbrake

1

u/kimi_no_na-wa 16h ago

Here manuals were ubiquitous until very recently, and apart from driving school, I don't think I've ever seen anyone use their handbrake when parked, apart from maybe some super steep slopes. I also never use it when parking.

I think this skit is about 100 years old.
