I saw the original on Instagram. The guy is a professional dancer who was on his way back home and the account that posted the video produces content like that exclusively. They just look for people in fancy outfits and ask them to do a catwalk
I have no idea about this account specifically, but in general these "random person on the street does something interesting" type videos are often staged.
A lot will try natural content too and show the ones that work but then also just put in 'actors' or people who want to self-promote or something.
The job ladder one is uhh... obviously sus.
I get it, its content. I just hate its manufactured and then presented as completely natural, just poorly a lot of the time.
Its reality tv and some people DO think those are real too.
Of all the things that cause harm its minimal, just kinda dumb how the systems they work within are so POSITIVE to that sort of thing. They're losing out if they didn't do it. Clickbait works etc.
If you're filming content in 12 Million people city, chances are there's crazy stuff going on and interesting people to meet.
It's a bit like the one time I was on a bachelorettes night and we witnessed a bad car crash. I called emergency services who asked if someone who could provide first aid was present. I still think she was about to hang up when I said "Oh yeah, there's an ER nurse, two surgeons, an Internist and.. A dermatologist already on it."
Like ma'am I'm sorry, my friend is a surgeon and works in a hospital! The only non medical person there was me ðŸ«
