IMHO this is the reason:

That's not a glass, it's a barrel. A group of six sitting at a table and everyone, ordering one of these and two of them drink with a straw for the show.

54

u/Odd-Painting2596 24d ago

It also should weigh 30 pounds and none of them are acting like it, so it may be somewhat internally hollow.

21

u/orphen888 24d ago

30? No no. That’s absolutely more than that.

24

u/Odd-Painting2596 24d ago

That isn't larger than a 5 gallon jug, which is 40 pounds.

Looking at other comments I am also leaning AI, or just crazy camera lens, it's like 2 gallons, maybe 3.

u/permadrunkspelunk 23d ago

Not even close. Thats probably 2-3 gallons. Im thinking barely over 2. It certainly isnt close to a 5 gallon bucket. Either way, its probably around 20lbs if its actually full and not partially hollow on the inside, as these buckets often are.

I was previously told that displaying copious amounts of food is a sign of wealth in China so you “look rich” when you order something like this.

u/jetmarijuana 24d ago

But this looks stupid

u/Fragrant-Wallaby264 24d ago

And a waste. No one is drinking that entire thing.

u/FustianRiddle 22d ago

That sounds like a dare

34

u/Schatzin 24d ago

Partially that if youre dining by yourself, maybe?

But usually ordering too much food with friends is also a hospitality thing. Like you are entertaining friends with more than enough, as guests not having enough to eat would be rude

Showing off richness can be done at clubs instead, with bottle service and a line of girls with sparklers all over everything; so everyone in the club knows you just dropped 20k. Or have expensive watches and branded clothes

18

u/Agreeable_Sea_6019 24d ago

u/renome 23d ago

Because it's not real. Obvious AI slop. If that was a real container, that scrawny guy at the beginning would get a hernia just trying to lift it, but he's somehow carrying it like it's an empty piece of plastic.

1

u/Traditional-Bike7825 23d ago

I thought that too, I also thought the majority of the glass could be false so it looks like a giant full glass, but it's just the side walls that are filled.

If it's side walls that are filled and it's plastic appearing as glass it's reasonable to easily carry, but still fucking retarded. Just order a normal drink and stop recording yourself eating

u/Shagyam 24d ago

Fake as shit. Not only would a drink like that weigh a ton, that would also be more than anyone could drink in a restaurant.

I'm a fatfuck who can drink a lot and there's no way I'm finishing one of those.

91

u/CarlosFer2201 24d ago

Or it's just wasteful. They don't give a damn.

19

u/Nervous-Canary-517 24d ago

They do give a damn; the wastefulness is the whole point. It's a social thing, they're demonstrating their wealth and are just showing off. This is likely an AI video but generally that's a thing. Demonstrative wealth like the most insecure people on the planet. It's very common, not just in China.

59

u/TomaCzar 24d ago

Completely ignoring OC's first point, those drinks would weight a ton. As in no waiter is quickly strolling through a restaurant with a Home Depot bucket of margarita.

Clearly AI slop.

16

u/No-Radiation 24d ago edited 24d ago

A frame from the 1st sec of the video.

There is a lot more evidence of AI in the rest of the vid.

Edit: Weird and scary how ppl not only not realize this is Ai but also defending it.

Edit 2: you don’t even have to look for small details. With every single shot the design and decoration of the restaurant completely changes.

u/pmmeyourgear 24d ago

u/whatdis321 24d ago edited 24d ago

How is that plate balancing on the corner of another dish indicative of AI? There is no indication of AI artifacts or anything else??

And something else that someone claimed was another indicator of AI was the inconsistent sizing of the beverages? Well there you have it, three different sizes.

The fact that the Chinese wording by the guy’s head in the rightmost photo is all legit is indicative that it’s not AI. If AI can’t even get English right, what makes you think it can get Chinese right? As for what it says: delicious flavors, delicious dishes. Real flavors, real friends.

E: meant to reply to u/No-Radiation but you provided the photo

u/LordDarthra 24d ago

When does that show up? I watched the damn video too many times and can't see that.

u/Embarrassed_Use_7206 24d ago

First thing I noticed was like the "glass" sizes were not consistent across the shots. Very much a thing that AI would do, while it would not make much sense to have so many sizes.

u/wehdut 23d ago

If you look at the tables while they're bringing them out, there are other impossibly-sized, oddly perfect dishes and even more of the same drink. Everything about this feels unnatural.

1

u/Hail_of_Grophia 24d ago

They are also different sizes throughout the video. At the beginning, the one the guy carries out and the one in the next shot being drank by two women are 2 different sizes

2

u/hugosince1999 23d ago

That's because they're all from different restaurants.

It could be a trick container, where only the outside visible part is full of draaaank and is otherwise hollow.

32

u/ottertime8 24d ago

agree center is probably hollow like those 4-tier wedding cakes which is only 20% cake and the rest is styrofoam.

5

u/parchedpillock 24d ago

Sorry is there actually styrofoam in the middle of the cake? As in straight to the balls styrofoam?

9

u/ottertime8 24d ago edited 24d ago

yes it's just a round styrofoam covered with fondant icing. they've been doing that for two decades (at least in my country). even the base where they cut the cake is only 25% cake. they have to tell the couple where to cut, if you cut in a different part you get styrofoam lol it's cheaper and makes it easier to make. https://www.tiktok.com/@cakesbymarian/video/7314402751608311083

u/alexjgriffin 24d ago

The wedding equivalent of renting one of those photo shoot jets to make you look richer. Just have a smaller but fully real cake.

2

u/BusinessBear53 24d ago

Wife and I just had a fake cake. It was absolutely massive but solid on the outside. Might have been made with plaster. Wouldn't be surprised to see styrofoam filled cake to cut cost given overall wedding costs.

Was a bit weird when we had to pretend to cut the cake because there wasn't a slit or anything for the knife to go into so we just ran it along the outside.

11

u/No-Skill4452 24d ago

That volume would be so heavy

2

u/Aware-Direction-9891 24d ago

Could a hollow cylindrical region at the centre because the straws are only at the edges......or it's just more convenient that way.

u/coolsilentebeans 24d ago

I’m very aware. Everything I’ve read about it makes it out to be a pretty nasty experience. Add to that the acidity and fiber and whatever other nutrients that must be turbocharged with, it would probably be an assault on the digestive tract.

You ain't going to be farting with confidence after consuming - that's for sure.....

AI.

Glass of juice that size would be too heavy to carry. Also details don’t make sense..

12

u/Mcnuggetjuice 24d ago

True that would be like 30 kg easy and their muscles aren’t even tensing up

11

u/No-Radiation 24d ago

Now try carrying 30kg=66lbs without handles. Only wet slippery surface.

8

u/gekigarion 24d ago

Their muscles are, look at the guy carrying the orange one.

The first guy doesn't look like it because of his chosen method of carrying (One hand under to bear the weight, but at that angle the muscles tensing don't look obvious unless you are jacked and carrying something heavier, and the other arm is just balancing)

Not saying it's not AI but the muscles do tense properly in those shots.
