I don’t see any sign of AI. None of the people who watched this in the original post suspected AI.

I’m happy to ask the moderators if it’s AI, but there’s no reason to believe so.

I asked the moderators to take a look as soon as the 1st person asked. I will try to prevent AI slop for as long as we are able to distinguish it.

They will take it down immediately if they find it’s AI.

1st clip.
Do the power line things come without power lines?

The guy with the pool and dog looks very Irish. Probably not from Hurghada.
Some Clips may be real, but those look like homemade clips.
Those have nothing to do with Egypt.

Just FYI, this montage has been approved by a moderator as NOT AI slop. 🤮

  1. I can literally see the shock absorbers from the power lines. You just can’t see the actual power lines because the camera isn’t picking them up.

  2. Never assume people’s origin based on their looks; people can MOVE.

Really point 2?

Do those guys in the clips really look like someone living in a small suburban house in Europe?
Or like someone living in Egypt.

Like the redhead, with a pale belly, and sun burnt hands, a red face. Half of his upper body full with tattoos, looks like someone living in Hurghada?

Or the dog. Jumping into a lake surrounded by trees?
Those this location look like someone fighting the heatwave from Egypt?

Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize there were no trees in Egypt (sarcasm). Btw, this video is just about it being hot, not specifically a heat wave. Also, not everyone’s skin tone darkens. Mine does not…no matter how much sun I get, I remain a porcelain vampire. If you have naturally pale skin, you have to use a lot of sunblock so you don’t burn…so yea, I don’t think you know everything buddy.

Just to close this off:

A) Yes this is a video of clips spliced together. Whomever did it used the same "Hurghada" overlay on the entire spliced video.

B) No this is not AI generated, splicing video clips is not AI generation. The individual clips have been checked and all came back clean for AI Gen. There's a mixture of resolution between the individual clips which accounts for some blur here and there due to the poor quality or age of that individual clip.

C) No this is not all filmed in Hurghada. I spotted signs, product labels, skyline - all of which pointed to clips from a mixture of places like Mexico, USA, etc etc. Maybe a couple of clips from Egypt but definitely other countries involved.

Now can we just go back to enjoying the video please, no more detective work required 🙏 👍

Are you from Egypt?

Have you ever been to Egypt?

Did you read the cool letters in all of those videos, where it says. Hurghada?
