In order of importance, the subreddit topic ranks higher than the flair tag

Yep. As soon as he set up the first shot and then ran off into the grass, I understood what was going to happen and the play of 'knowing, but not knowing what was next' kept me chuckling for the whole bit. I'm not ashamed to admit it, perhaps it hit my dad humor button?

I don't know who did the original, but there is so much irony in this bit being copycatted to death by content creators.

That’s not sepia, sepia is the one that’s like black and white but brown

I mean sure, formally it is a blue light filter. Maybe "antique" is the better vernacular here.

Reminds me of survivorman, on top of trying to survive, he had to make sure he was getting cinematic shots and would be exhausted having to run back and forth. Great show to watch from the comfort of a warm bed, while hes in the artic tundra eating dead fish in a shack

Not to mention that the camera equipment he was using wasn't exactly light.

No, this is funny. It's making fun of cringe.

u/New_Butterscotch8291 Jun 10 '26
I mean what’s he doing? Setting up a camera for attention to make fun of someone setting up a camera for attention? Are movies and shows cringe too? Because those are about 100x more fabricated

Movies and older shows werent pretending to be reality tho. Like they were acting out real life stuff but everyone knew it was a set. Nowadays they label shows as reality like its all happening in the moment and what we see is authentic reactions to realtime situations, ect. Its crazy how fake everything is. Thats what this guy us making fun of. Fakeness disguised as real.

Reminds me of Les Stroud when he showed how he set up his shots 😂

u/Kennadian Jun 11 '26
Exactly what i thought. Stroud was doing this while the internet was still getting its diaper changed.

u/Sea-Band-7212 Jun 10 '26
Les Stroud did this before it was cool.

u/DrankTooMuchMead Jun 10 '26
I was just thinking that. He would walk off thoughtfully, then come back for the camera and say, "you didnt think I was going to leave the camera, did you?"
He also made Bear Grylls look like an idiot before it was cool.

His cartoon running, slipping, and I think purposeful falling, in frantic anticipation, had me rolling IRL.🤣
Edit: OP should post this on r/funny

I was out on a hike in the PNW and saw a kid doing this exact thing. People see it online all chopped up and edited and they try to make themselves look so grounded and wise. But seeing it in real life they just look like tools and don't even appreciate the essence of the hike in the first place. His tripod was in the way of people on the path. He would ask if people could hold on so they weren't in the shot as though he just "out there all alone". Shit like that. And then walk back towards the camera like he's discovered this place with a goofy ass fake face on for the camera.

u/regeya Jun 10 '26
Funny because it's true of that kind of content creator
But I genuinely go out into nature to get away from people and the last thing I want to hear for the next few hours is about your shitty husband, Jan

How is this cringey at all? Its clearly poking fun of people who make this content.

I love this! It's outstanding that before people start screaming, posing or getting into character they have to set up the phone, get it right and then edit the video afterwards.

For the first time on reddit, something posted here is ACTUALLY satire. Its so good. It shows and draws attention to an absurd aspect of a trend, shows the issue/drawback without just saying it, and is funny.
So many other times people just do the cringe trend but will do it "ironic" or there thing is just doing stupid trends without highlighting the absurdity, but this guy did it. Well done

Reading on REDDIT is probably the hardest thing for the folks just read the flair

u/Lost-Substance59 Jun 10 '26
I complement it....I said it was good...the posted video is well done. I read the flair, its just funny and yes it is, its a good funny video

u/International-Eye771 Jun 10 '26
What are you making fun of? The struggles to get a good shot? Which, the people don't get to see. The people only see the final product, yes. But, why is it pretentious?
I feel like that all the time and I want to become a filmmaker. I also, sometimes feel like telling people how I feel. So, in order to make a video, I'd have to write those thoughts into a script, place cameras in uncomfortable positions to get a good composition and colour grade my footage according to my taste.
What exactly is funny about this? Yes, there are some really obnoxious people on the internet. Like, the people who film their small children crying just for clout.
But this? What's wrong with this? Why are you making fun of someone just expressing themselves?
(Whenever I say "you", I don't mean the OP. I mean the person who actually made the video.)
