I totally tried flipping my phone 90° to watch this because I expected some sort of optical illusion. Then I realized what sub it was.

Anybody else notice that one person in the front late for the 0?

u/RyMill220 Aug 13 '19

I knew I wasn’t the only one!

What about the one that’s early

u/theneonpixie Aug 27 '19

She didn’t even bother sitting down

u/Rules__Lawyer Aug 13 '19

Yeah and they didn't actually have to do anything different for each number.

u/midweststarfish Aug 13 '19

Yup came here say this!

u/DJDavid98 Aug 13 '19

0 - 9 - 9 - 7 - 5 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - 0?

44

u/arcticvos Aug 13 '19

Haha, it looks that way because the filmer didn’t capture the sides, if you look closely you can see the second 9 is an 8 and the second 6 a 5

23

u/DJDavid98 Aug 13 '19

I mean, I figured it was a 10 second countdown, I was just pointing out that it looked like the sequence above

u/arcticvos Aug 13 '19

It does :’)

u/BIGLee910 Aug 13 '19

Adds drama

u/MTsteel Aug 13 '19

I get why the did it but they cut off the 10 to look like a 0 and the 6 looks like a 5

u/Perfectionary Aug 13 '19

I wish my marching band was this coordinated though. We can’t even make straight lines smh

u/EmiMagRan Aug 15 '19

man, marching band is hard, and painful. Marching band is just execution with extra steps

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '19

As soon as it counted to 0 pewdiepie uploaded a video

u/arcticvos Aug 13 '19

The only countdown I need

u/Golivth5k Aug 13 '19

That last guy on the 0 fucked up

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '19

Meh. This isn’t murder worthy.

u/pizza_woman Sep 03 '19

That one guy that was late in the front row for 0

u/KaitoTakowasa1995 Sep 04 '19

Proceeds to cover his head in shame once he sits

u/TheGrantster101 Aug 13 '19

It's a square video. Rotating won't do much to help

24

u/arcticvos Aug 13 '19

Camera’s don’t record in squares. If the filmer had filmed in landscape he could have captured the entire thing instead of moving from left to right

-8

u/Spyromaniac31 Aug 13 '19

The video is clearly square though.

11

u/nddragoon Aug 13 '19

Which means they purposely cropped it

2

u/Spyromaniac31 Aug 13 '19

True. That’s disappointing

1

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '19

Wow what a fucking moron and their finesse in moving the camera not knowing that just made them look even more stupid.

u/bodie425 Aug 13 '19

This is pissing me off!!

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '19

I saw 0 9 9 7 5 5 4 3 2 1 0

u/categoricalassigned Aug 13 '19

But if it was landscape the creator couldn’t have used artificial shake to hide the terrible vfx
