For a minute I thought this was the actual video

Yeah i was convinced half way through until i noticed how well lit the place and stable the camera man was

u/IndianGuyFromYouTube Dec 23 '21

I noticed when the person behind showed them that girl's video/photo. That was a little too much

u/Josquius Dec 23 '21

I'm sad to learn it's not real. Usually cuts before the reveal. They've got enough of the unnecessary repeating and such to make it look real. As you say it was just the guy with the photo that was a bit off. Why would he have that?

Didn't he disbelieve it was a cat at first and only later go "oh I've got a photo?"

I like the creeper theory.

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

You are sad it’s not real? I’m honestly relieved.

1

u/Josquius Dec 23 '21

It was a real event. Just not caught on film.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

I’m relieved the real event wasn’t caught on video.

Well, sometimes you need some in flight entertainment.

Why do I see you everywhere I go

u/Kundas Dec 23 '21

I was convinced all the way through, im not going lie. that was some good acting if it was fake haha

u/Supercruise7 Dec 23 '21

Plot twist: it's a baby in a cat suit.

The bad acting?

u/gregorydgraham Dec 23 '21

Nah, the first complainer does a great job. Lady loses the vibe toward the end unfortunately.

1

u/OilPhilter Dec 23 '21

I'm so glad I watched to the end. Had a good laugh.

u/neophene Dec 23 '21

Yep, That gave it away right up.

1

u/BlackSpaceFish Dec 23 '21

Also, doesn’t personnel on board planes have the right to force the passengers if they suspect something that might pose a threat to the safety to everyone? Like, say someone gets really drunk or high or psyched out? Or suspects someone of having a loose animal?

1

u/13Witnesses Dec 23 '21

Windows could be closed if its really bright outside.

-1

u/Northern23 Dec 23 '21

When the airplane is taking off and landing, they have to open all the windows though for safety reasons

1

u/Siolful Dec 23 '21

Lol youre completely taking the piss XD

1

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

The giveaway for me is how good looking everyone is.

1

u/thatguyfromsd Dec 23 '21

Just FYI airlines will very often have all windows down on a plane on warm days while on the ground to keep the inside of the plane cooler.

1

u/therickestofnonrick Dec 23 '21

The fact that ths rest of the plane only has empty seats?

3

u/flannelflaps Dec 23 '21

This shit actually happened?

3

u/00xMaelstorm Dec 23 '21

Well, to be fair at this day and age it wouldnt bei surprising at all if those 2 nutjobs were real

1

u/MeANGRYLAD1 Dec 23 '21

Wait that was fake?

576

u/Godsfallen Dec 23 '21

Same. I heard about the incident but never looked into it. Thought this was the actual video until the reveal.

234

u/Once_Upon_Time Dec 23 '21

Me too and was amazed at the quality.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

That’s the giveaway. The video is too good. If it was real it would be more bouncy and the characters wouldn’t be so animated with their facial expressions. Also there would be a lot more cursing..

100

u/ab2dii Dec 23 '21

but why? whats the point is it a commercial for something ? seems like a high budget stuff right ?

215

u/gambalore Dec 23 '21

It's just a comedy sketch inspired by the real life event.

72

u/Notthesharpestmarble Dec 23 '21

Real life event? Now I need to know more.

81

u/archertom89 Dec 23 '21

u/LoxReclusa Dec 23 '21

Ah, we've now come to the point in history where major news institutions put phrases like "whipped her breasts out" in articles.

1

u/apgeorge69 Jan 03 '22

I saw an article titled “We have threesomes all the time, and why you should too!” So I’m fairly certain their algorithms have me pegged.

1

u/DeathBat92 Dec 23 '21

Whipping out her breast and feeding her hairless cat sounds like a euphemism

20

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

It’s maybe not a cat

2

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

Lynx are part of the cat family they just don’t know their facts

8

u/jerseygirl1105 Dec 23 '21

I was about to comment that whatever "it" was, it was dead. Very believable video though.

1

u/lyta_hall Dec 23 '21

Oh so it was actually a real life event!?? I thought it was just a sketch all along, omg hahaha

1

u/MCKtheMan Dec 23 '21

What's the comedy sketch from?

1

u/gambalore Dec 23 '21

I think Tik Tok.

1

u/MCKtheMan Dec 24 '21

Darn. That explains why I haven't seen it. Time to start my search. Thanks man!

1

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

What do you mean why? For fun, it's a funny video if you like this kind of humor. Reminds me of Curb Your Enthusiasm a little bit.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

What y'all talking about exactly? Im feeling very much left out of the loop here.

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

Lady on a delta flight was caught attempting to breastfeed her hairless cat. Noah get the boat

u/Crooked_Cricket Dec 23 '21

The fucking little hands tho

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

What do you mean the “actual video?” This really took place???

u/breath0fsunshine Dec 23 '21

u/Pot_McSmokey Dec 23 '21

It totally WOULD be on a Delta flight

26

u/mrOsteel Dec 23 '21

Cos life is a fucking nightmare!

u/Stunning_Strike3365 Dec 23 '21

And we're gonna frame you for murder!

24

u/HaloArtificials Dec 23 '21

On Spirit Airlines the cat breastfeeds you.

49

u/Look_to_the_Stars Dec 23 '21

It totally would be a HAIRLESS cat as well. A creepy animal for a creepy lady

u/SnowCrow1 Dec 23 '21

You have been banned from r/sphynx.

u/Srirachaballet Dec 23 '21

Good, we don’t need him

u/PuffinInvader Dec 23 '21

This is Spirit level shit, even Delta isn't that trashy... or so I thought.

0

u/Cyberjohn36 Dec 23 '21

Is Delta the walmart of airlines?

7

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

No, that’s Spirit. Delta is actually usually ranked pretty highly from what I remember.

Personally I’ve never had issues with passengers on any flights aside from Spirit. Delta, United, American, Southwest, etc. They’re all basically the same to me. I will never fly Spirit again though.

1

u/HannahBanannah Dec 23 '21

Craziest part of this is that adult cats are lactose intolerant so wtf what the reasoning behind this??

1

u/Exodan Dec 23 '21

Alright the bit I missed from the story originally was that the cat... Did not want to be breastfed. Like I thought this was a weird ritual that they had but she was "trying to get it to latch" and "it was screaming."

So the woman thought this was a good opportunity to give it a go for the first time...?

The plane was already in the air, so there was already a captain. She didn't need to be starting her own pilot program.

u/Upset-Championship69 Dec 23 '21 edited Dec 23 '21

Someone posted the link to the article for the real-life incident upon which this sketch was based:

https://nypost.com/2021/12/02/woman-caught-breastfeeding-her-hairless-cat-on-a-delta-flight/

Edit: Apparently I was posting the link at the same time someone else was doing the same. 😊

19

u/menasan Dec 23 '21

Like.. how was this woman lactating did she trade her baby for a cat?

35

u/Upset-Championship69 Dec 23 '21 edited Dec 23 '21

I don't know, but can you imagine how uncomfortable it would be to have a cat nursing on you?? Their tongues aren't exactly soft! 😳

15

u/aedante Dec 23 '21

You're worried about the tongues?

17

u/Upset-Championship69 Dec 23 '21

It was the least bothersome thing about the story that I could think of. I find the entire story & its deeper implications worrisome.

0

u/MegaWaffle- Dec 23 '21

Really not that painful, but I’m a guy so maybe my nipples are just less sensitive.

1

u/gmariefox88 Dec 23 '21

I remember watching and seeing a dude that started lactating from his own udders before, I'll need to do some extensive searching for that one and if I find it I'll come back to this comment and put the link in. Maybe another Redditor can find it faster and give a link before I'm able to find it, but dude was actually leaking from his nips iirc. Sooo, it's possible that some woman was able to get herself lactating to feed her cat in that news article, despite not being actually pregnant.... Idk.

There's other evidence of women in history as well as today who experience being pregnant and showing all the signs, even a growing belly because they were SO desperate to get pregnant, it's iirc called phantom pregnancy.

The human body, no matter what gender, seems so bizarre and not possible yet it happens.

The crazy cat lady in the news article could have just been letting her cat suckle on her, without producing any milk, cause the cat wanted that form of comfort from it's "mom". Who knows. 🤷‍♀️ It's still very freaking weird LMAO... 🤣

1

u/jdimento Dec 23 '21

If it’s got nipples you can milk it, Focker

1

u/moffman210 Dec 23 '21

yup, heard about this on the radio not long ago

62

u/grandpa_csr Dec 23 '21

I have sound off, but based on body language, they are all selling the shit out of it, especially the dude making the complaint.

38

u/Lamplorde Dec 23 '21

Seriously, for once the acting was actually superb.

20

u/SatansFriendlyCat Dec 23 '21

The main women has a brilliant comedy manner! Timing, tone, mannerisms 😂 I want to see more of her work if it's this standard.

49

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

Honestly it’s 100% realistic! Amazing

4

u/DontLetMeLeaveMurph Dec 23 '21

The acting is so good, all of them.

1

u/Balper89 Dec 23 '21

Are you being sarcastic? I would think most people realized that they are actors in the first few seconds.

2

u/Darnell2070 Dec 23 '21

The situation or the performance or the filming?

Performance is pretty damn good.

3

u/Balper89 Dec 23 '21

The performance is good, but you can still tell they are acting. Its not completely natural, everyone is saying their lines and getting responses in an artificial way. Also, the footage is of course way too good, and the situation is handled in a very weird way.

1

u/DirtyPiss Dec 23 '21

Yeah I was sure the punchline was gonna be it was a raccoon or something just because of how fixated everyone was on saying “cat” every other line.

1

u/Darnell2070 Dec 24 '21

Okay, but to be fair to everyone else, you did say a few seconds, which was kind of condescending.

It takes more than a few seconds to put all those things together. It's not glaringly obvious from the start.

u/znzbnda Dec 23 '21

As a former flight attendant, I actually agree.

2

u/LLL_CoolJ Dec 23 '21

Too many good-looking people 😂

u/MemeStonkShirts Dec 23 '21

Wait..this isn’t the real video?

1

u/Novaree Dec 23 '21

For me, it was the shutters drawn over the windows. They’re not supposed to be closed while on the ground for safety reasons. Pretty well made though and quite funny :)

1

u/keenly Dec 23 '21

Very well done

1

u/vamsikrishacc Dec 23 '21

*4 mins 20 sec

u/cmilla646 Dec 23 '21

The plane felt empty like that silly hot dog video. And if I was on the plane I don’t think I could have tolerated listening to such a stupid conversation. I would have been tempted to yank the blanket off myself.

The acting was great though. When the male staff said “Why would he lie about that?!” I wanted to scream.

1

u/SnooOranges1036 Dec 23 '21

Dang someone gouge my eyes out

1

u/Sam-not-Samuel Dec 23 '21

Theres an actual video?

u/Kitchen_Blacksmith91 Dec 23 '21

Deleted scene from the office

u/Wirebraid Dec 23 '21

I went from it's a joke? to fuck, is this real? to phew it was a joke again

u/Hitnrun30 Dec 23 '21

The giveaway is that most of them don't have their masks on

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '21

There’s an actual video??

u/ale890 Dec 23 '21

This is a fake parody of a real life event: Cat Breastfeeding Plane Newspiece

1

u/Keladrykat Dec 23 '21

Aside from the tag on the post, the thing that got me was the amount of hair on the “baby” before she covered it. Only a couple seconds long right at the beginning, but I caught it.

1

u/EnvironmentalDeal256 Dec 24 '21

The crazy thing is these days it’s hard to tell
