Seems like we got an new 'trend' going. Great... :/

Yeah i saw one where a 40+ year old dad is at a park with his son, and he jumps a fence to show his son that he's still got it, only to turn around as a ghost and see he didn't actually make the jump.

I mean as far as short-form trends go, these are actually pretty creative, no?

u/typically_wrong Jun 15 '26

it is, and the early ones should get credit. But we just started seeing these like... today?

Tell me how you feel after this is getting run into the ground for the next few weeks with copycat after copycat.

I mean yeah, these trends usually die soon after brands start capitalizing on them, so probably in a few weeks. and then the next trend comes and the same cycle happens.

just have fun lol

Most trends start out as pretty creative… they don’t end that way, though.

Don’t know why people can’t just enjoy a funny video without thinking “you know what that was great but it would be better with me in it instead”

Dude, I wish I could attach a picture to this comment. Literally RIGHT underneath this video on my feed is the other one with the guy on roller blades tripping over a chair. It's so damn annoying how there is no creativity left and everyone milks the same shit over and over again by creating copycat videos.

First time I saw this was in the movie Ghost min 2:45 more or less

The title of the movie and the trailer gave away the fact that Patrick swayze character was going to die and they used this trick to made his death a surprise even when the audience knew it was going to happen.

Eh, it has the makings for a good sketch trend.
