Game has nothing to do with this. haha It just shows how much stupid some people are. haha Its fun to mock them. But then again, you are always stupid compared to someone...
I firmly believe that they are the stupidest people on this list (Besides the guys that walked off of a cliff). "Oh, my idiot daughter crossed A BUSY STREET on her own free will? Yeah, it's the game's fault." So, I guess now Pokemon GO can control people's minds now? No, I think that her daughter was truly dumb enough to cross that street, with or without the game.
margareth michelina Eh, true. But falling into a hole isn't always life threatening. People do it all the time, games or not, But walking across a road and blaming it on a video game, well...
seriously a top 10 crazy things that happen while playing Pokemon go and the guy who found a dead body floating in the river doesn't even get an honorable mention?
People have done that without Pokemon Go. That game didn't start the trend. My mom used to leave me at home when I was 4 so she can go out and party all night. The drug and alcohol kind of partying.
irregulargamer13 I know right? That shit isn't new. People act like Pokémon Go brings out a side of people that has never been there before. When you look back throughout history, only then will you realize that it's happened before but due to some other stupid ass reason.
In my town, a man crashed his car into a tree and completely destroyed the front side while playing pokemon go. What made this worse was that it occured at a elementary school playground in the middle of a day. Thankfully nobody got seriously injured.
lol pokemon never touched anyone its peoples fault, clearly you are idiot if you don't check left and right before crossing road etc stop judging game just because of idiots
+Splash Mapping mostly idiots? maybe you are 10 year old and your mom said you can't play it so you offend other people? I think you are idiot, and your country clearly doesn't deserve game if you are going to spit on it
A body was discovered in a flood canal in Odense, Denmark by a Pokehunter, which coincided with the case from Wyoming, where a body was found in a river
I remember the highway accident. It was the idiot parents fault, her daughter asked if she could cross a busy intersection to get to a Pokemon and the mom was like. "Yeah sure go do that." Now the mom is trying to blame the game for her own stupidity.
To add to the list... Gautemala teen who was killed when he too the wrong side of the tracks. Arizona couple left their 2 year old child at home to play pokemon. 2 Offduty Marines while playing pokemon go, capture a wanted criminal who was harassing kids playing pokemon go. Pokemon players going to a Church Pokestop find a crazy naked woman vandalising the church. Florida Man shoots at two kids outside his house cause they were parked outside his house "too long". A wanted criminal in Michigan unaware of where he was walked right up to the police station Pokestop and got caught on the doorstep, New York man gets lost in woods, while carrying a phone that has GPS and internet connection *facepalm* and had to call 911, The tourist that walked onto an Indonesian Military base and got arrested ... and not including about a lot of reports crazy people getting into arguements, fights, assaults, robberies and car crashes (while the ones in the video were the more popular or first media accounts). Some of them are weird too, cause they continue playing and dont go to the police / hospital for help.

FYI WatchMojo, the warning's on loading screens is recent update when they removed tracking. Before that was no warning my friends and other youtuber's have said and shown.
You don have to turn where the Pokémon is. You just keep your phone in whatever direction you're going, tap the Pokémon, and catch it. I don't know why people don't know this.
What about the parents who went playing for ninety minutes while leaving their two year old son alone at home in a 96 degree weather? A CZcamsr called ProtoMario did a video about that.
"Team Rocket is the greatest threat imaginable"? Are you kidding me? There are far more evil teams than Team Rocket, who look a total joke by comparison
I never realized Pokémon was this popular....all I know is I watched the show when I was younger and can now only remember Ash, Pikachu, and Team Rocket being desperate af in every episode. 😂
I am surprised they didn't talk about the one in Bangor ,Maine.. A women yelled at a guy playing Pokemon go because he was in a crosswalk not moving , and when he yelled back at her, she backed her car up and ran him over in the crosswalk, and if I remember right she backed over him again...
I'm wondering if Pokemon Go could be a sign of The Singularity. If so, props to Big Sing for finding a more elegant solution to the human problem than Skynet's.
You dont have to worry about "being the very best" if there's no one else smart enough to watch for a car.... LOOK A BLASTOISE. *JUMPS IN STREET GETS HIT BY CAR* Cue the shooting starts meme XD
In my city alone I've heard of a lot of crazy stories and have even had something happen to my fiance and I. Our lighthouse became a Pokestop and it was pretty much the best place to go as there were three other Pokestops within a few feet from each other. There would be 300+ people out there. I've heard about one guy who was hit by a beer bottle from a car driving by, there were reports of people drive by shooting with paintball guns, and of people fighting over such things happening. My fiance and I went under the public pier because it started raining and a group of four men stopped us and started questioning us. Then he got really close to me and stuck his chest out. He was staring me in the face and told me "Next time it rains, and you want to come under this fucking pier... Turn around... You see the building over there? Go there next fucking time. I'm getting really tired of this Pokemon Go bullshit." The whole time he was in my face, shirtless, ripped. Looked like he had been to jail before, and he was probably drunk. I had a whole bunch of other players back us up though, so nobody got hurt thankfully. The Pokestop was actually just recently removed due to problems like this but they say it's because of "littering." Oh well.
There is literally no way you can blame the game. Even before it was updated to include extra warnings, the loading screen, from the start, said to STAY AWARE OF SURROUNDINGS. If something happens to you, that just means you didn't heed the warning signs.
7:00 After catching pokemon at a museum, a kid attempts to cross a busy street and gets hit by a car. How is that the game's fault? The dumb girl shouldn't have tried to cross a busy street, it's just common sense.
I like how most of these don't even have anything to do with Pokemon Go and reporters and the news just add it in to get more attention. If you remove the fact that they weren't playing Pokemon Go, almost nothing would change
the Canadian Military had to issue a public statement to get people to stop tresspassing on the CFB Borden mortar and artilery range due to the presence of unexploded ordinance on the range. So that should be #1
Did you know someone is actually writing a "Fairy Tail" fan fiction where Natsu meets Lucy by saving her from getting hit by a car while playing "Pokémon Go"?
i find it funny that people used to love WatchMojo when they were a small channel but now that they are large, the same people are hating on WatchMojo.
Where I live some guy with a warrant walked right up to the police station because it was a PokeStop and the police were like "doesn't that guy have a warrant?"
Found these hot twins playing at the park. Told them there was Dragonite at my house. Get there, admit I lied, it was actually a metapod and it's about to use harden. Fun time.
they designed signs for "don't play Pokemon Go in this area" in my country and with the Nijmeegse Avondvierdaagse (a event for four days where you have to walk miles for fun) they had these signs and most of them were stolen
Great. Of its not enough for parents to worry about school, sports activities , lesson in music, lunchtime, drugs, tardiness, kids simply not turning in homework, sneaking out at night, sex, now it's pokeman. A game.
People need to take responsibility for their actions and not blame it on a game
i can't leave a like cause android sucks but thumbs up
Game has nothing to do with this. haha
It just shows how much stupid some people are. haha
Its fun to mock them. But then again, you are always stupid compared to someone...
the game even warns you to look at your surrounding
Yup.
People just want to sue and make money off their own stupidity.
This game just helps speed up the process of Natural Selection. GG Pokemon GO
Lol tru
😂😂😂 W
da what are you tal *falls into shark tank*
heh clever
Lmao
Dude, that guy who got stabbed and kept playing was badass!
"Tis but a scratch!"
the crook use knife stab...
it's not very effective!
LOL!
only a flesh wound!
yeah, but FUCK POKEMON!
he was carrying a potion...
I think it was the girls fault. The girl should have looked both ways and paid attention.
Agreed. Same to her mother. She blames Pokemon Go for make her daughter got hurt? Why didn't she watch her daughter while she was playing?
I firmly believe that they are the stupidest people on this list (Besides the guys that walked off of a cliff). "Oh, my idiot daughter crossed A BUSY STREET on her own free will? Yeah, it's the game's fault." So, I guess now Pokemon GO can control people's minds now? No, I think that her daughter was truly dumb enough to cross that street, with or without the game.
Ternek Hale And then there's a man who stupidly live streaming himself while playing and then he fell to the hole.
margareth michelina Eh, true. But falling into a hole isn't always life threatening. People do it all the time, games or not, But walking across a road and blaming it on a video game, well...
Well, she clearly ignored the most simplest warnings Pokémon Go offered.
We have to admit we saw this top 10 coming
It was expected
They even announced it
HELL YEA! Agreed.
Yup
***** Miss me with that fake shit nigga!
What about the teen that found a dead body while playing?
Ikr
+Jacklyn Drawz I heard a guy saw someone get murdered while playing this game.
+mariic2 he was faking it all
sperminator What makes you say that?
+sperminator if she means the three teens walking in the woods and seeing a decomposing body that's not fake
Of course watchmojo would want to cash in on this.
It's a cultural phenomenon.
+WatchMojo.com i can't blame you :p
+WatchMojo.com even though i just did, lol
+WatchMojo.com can you do more deconstructed though? i really like those.
+WatchMojo.com First time seeing you guys reply to a comment
Problem: Overpopulation
Solution: Pokémon Go
Solution: Hunger Games
Solution: The Purge
Its 3AM and I almost woke my parents up. this needs more likes
Hotel:....Trivago?
Result: Extreme Anarchy
What about the one girl who ended up finding a dead body floating in water?
Overheard.
did anyone ever think this isn't a game developed by humans but by God to "thin out the herd"?
my god.....
yes and I hope it does, this game is stupid
survival of the fittest
+Donny The Dealer lol
More like Satan confirmed!
There was a boy who ran away from home after his mom deleted Pokemon Go off his phone
He can always redownload it and log back in
omg
bruh I applaud you
seriously a top 10 crazy things that happen while playing Pokemon go and the guy who found a dead body floating in the river doesn't even get an honorable mention?
It's sad that you have to tell people to be aware of your surroundings or don't go on private property.
Shouldn't people have logic.
ikr
pokemon go is a dangerous game ever and I wouldn't play it even if I was a pokemon fan
i was actually in san diego at those cliffs recently after that happened!
How about the couple that left their child at home to play Pokemon Go and got arrested.
People have done that without Pokemon Go. That game didn't start the trend. My mom used to leave me at home when I was 4 so she can go out and party all night. The drug and alcohol kind of partying.
+Allen Albertson cool story bro.
irregulargamer13 I know right? That shit isn't new. People act like Pokémon Go brings out a side of people that has never been there before. When you look back throughout history, only then will you realize that it's happened before but due to some other stupid ass reason.
I was expecting "Players break into Central Park for a Raichu"
Man, Michael Baker keeps the phase, "The show must go on," to heart.
How to play Pokémon Go safely:
1. Delete the app
2. ?
3. Profit
2. sell your account
is not the game is the person playing
south park reference
that episode was on two days ago
POKEMON GO IS ASS, IF YOU ARE STILL PLAYING AND ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT IT YOU ARE ADDICTED DUMBASS, DELETE IT
8:02 oh no, that's Pokemon mystery dungeon
Last time I was this early, nerds had never been outside before.
?
lol, not funny nor clever.
+Dankus Memus Lol, not English nor any other language by the looks of things.
Says the one who has a minecraft avatar
😂😂dead on that comment so dead
"While playing this HIT augmented reality".....I get it. >:)
why does people blames pokemon go for their own mistakes?
i mean, who would risk their life for possibly a squirtle with 19 cp?
idiots that's who
Finally a video game managed to get us outside, but apparently some of us were indoors long enough to forget the common sense of walking around town.
The rober thing happend 5 min away from my house
It was in st.louis mo
when you gotta catch them all, you gotta catch them all!
blaming a game for your child's dumb choice? wow....
I remember a news cast where a kid rear- ended a cop car and it was caught on film.
6:54 i love that in the USA is always someone else's fault,
In my town, a man crashed his car into a tree and completely destroyed the front side while playing pokemon go. What made this worse was that it occured at a elementary school playground in the middle of a day. Thankfully nobody got seriously injured.
last time i was this early...
pokemon go was not killing people.
lol pokemon never touched anyone its peoples fault, clearly you are idiot if you don't check left and right before crossing road etc stop judging game just because of idiots
+Rage because mostly idiots play pokemon go
im so happy its no available in my country
+Splash Mapping mostly idiots? maybe you are 10 year old and your mom said you can't play it so you offend other people? I think you are idiot, and your country clearly doesn't deserve game if you are going to spit on it
+Splash Mapping "mostly idiots" the only idiots playing are the ones killing themselves
7:30
I wish Heather Graham would come over and catch me :P
Wasn't there a girl who discovered a dead body in a river?
A body was discovered in a flood canal in Odense, Denmark by a Pokehunter, which coincided with the case from Wyoming, where a body was found in a river
i like it how one of the cop cars said arlington on them when a coldplay concert in arlington is a few days away
This is just how STUPID our Society has become... ;-(
agree, and more are being breed.
Gotta love the facts that updates basically had to spell it out
The majority were pretty mindless but you can't help getting stabbed, I feel bad he got stabbed but he didn't seem to really care either. Lol
Eric Thompson, because he was THAT STUPID!...
It always was stupid
Go To 5:10 And Turn On Subtitles
wow thanks for that lol
Carlos Hernandez No Problem...
I don't think Ash's lure is going to catch anything that way...
Nick Hare Maybe...
lol OmG
I remember the highway accident. It was the idiot parents fault, her daughter asked if she could cross a busy intersection to get to a Pokemon and the mom was like. "Yeah sure go do that." Now the mom is trying to blame the game for her own stupidity.
human intelligence, where did it go. heh. get it?
I got the joke
we gotta catch it all back!
curious how "finding a dead body" didn't even come into WatchMojo's consideration for honorable mention while making this list
I'm so glad I never got into this whole Pokémon craze! ^^;
To add to the list... Gautemala teen who was killed when he too the wrong side of the tracks.
Arizona couple left their 2 year old child at home to play pokemon.
2 Offduty Marines while playing pokemon go, capture a wanted criminal who was harassing kids playing pokemon go.
Pokemon players going to a Church Pokestop find a crazy naked woman vandalising the church.
Florida Man shoots at two kids outside his house cause they were parked outside his house "too long".

The subject line for suggestions?
I may be wrong but I thought the crash was in Baltimore. And the players didn't walk of the sandstone broke and then they fell.

I was just expecting to see that part!

Its not the game that's stupid its the people playing. Your telling me that your gonna stab somebody if they don't battle.
#WatchMojoCares
+Kwenatta Mccarthy yup AND THE WARNING AT THE FUCKING START
FYI WatchMojo, the warning's on loading screens is recent update when they removed tracking. Before that was no warning my friends and other youtuber's have said and shown.
jokes on you @Watchmojo Philip DeFranco already filled me in on most of these
that's a drug not a game
actually though there was a fly on my screen
+Tacos Anonymous same
something for losers to waste time with, fucking idiots
If that's the case, 10/10. Will smoke again.
+Jeremy Pike at least they get some exercise
You don have to turn where the Pokémon is. You just keep your phone in whatever direction you're going, tap the Pokémon, and catch it. I don't know why people don't know this.
Players break into area 51.
+Nathan Adams there's a video on it (it may be fake)
+Nathan Adams Search it up
That didn't break into Area 52 (the actual place) just pass the barriers
Players break into the restroom when your Mom is taking a shower!
YES! YES! "Derz a mootwo in area 51!!!"
I CAN ALREADY SEE IT NOW!!
Hardly surprising, when Pokemon first appeared 2 decades ago, all sorts of things happen like the infamous Porygon episode, etc.
Half of this stuff isn't the games fault
This is one of the best top 10s :p
Never played the game, never will.
I got to level 2 but I found the game boring. Now I throw bowling balls at grizzly bears while running through the forest. Talking about a great time.
only lazy fat people hate pokemon go.
+VoiceoftheVoiceless no?
you are lazy and fat if you think Pokemon go is the only reason to move around. l hate Pokemon go and l am not an athlete, but l am far from lazy.
What about the parents who went playing for ninety minutes while leaving their two year old son alone at home in a 96 degree weather? A CZcamsr called ProtoMario did a video about that.
Just An Early Comment That Will Soon Be Lost For All Eternity
it depends if anyone will reply to your comment
Hopefully someone does
C'mon guys!! Lets help this comment stay up!!!!!!
I will..
oops accidentally commented
"Team Rocket is the greatest threat imaginable"? Are you kidding me? There are far more evil teams than Team Rocket, who look a total joke by comparison
luckily im not the fan of this stupid game
Its not stupid
It's just your opinion I'm not a fan of it either but it's just your opinion
fuck you
yes it is. you follow a map and then swing your phone in the air, where is the fun in that?
Hey watch your hand!!
I never realized Pokémon was this popular....all I know is I watched the show when I was younger and can now only remember Ash, Pikachu, and Team Rocket being desperate af in every episode. 😂
Once, there was a group of hundreds of Pokemon Go players that blocked a really long highway just to catch a Mewtwo. A whole f*cking highway.
I am surprised they didn't talk about the one in Bangor ,Maine.. A women yelled at a guy playing Pokemon go because he was in a crosswalk not moving , and when he yelled back at her, she backed her car up and ran him over in the crosswalk, and if I remember right she backed over him again...
I'm wondering if Pokemon Go could be a sign of The Singularity. If so, props to Big Sing for finding a more elegant solution to the human problem than Skynet's.
What about the whole finding a body one?!?
Rebecca...talking about Pokémon and making Pokémon jokes...
I'm in love.
remember when pokemon was so unpopular and when pokemon go comes out it is so popular
Pokemon is still popular with the hype of Sun and Moon.
No man a charizard is totally worth going to jail for
You dont have to worry about "being the very best" if there's no one else smart enough to watch for a car.... LOOK A BLASTOISE. *JUMPS IN STREET GETS HIT BY CAR* Cue the shooting starts meme XD
a french man named Enzo LeFort one day played this game and walked too far, when he realized that he found himself is Rio competing in fencing.
I've been to that cliff in Encinitas.
No, I didn't fall off, but I went to the beach near there.
That's nothing. In Germany a few guys climbed over baricades and fences and walked strait into a military practice with infantrie, tanks, etc..
In my city alone I've heard of a lot of crazy stories and have even had something happen to my fiance and I.
Our lighthouse became a Pokestop and it was pretty much the best place to go as there were three other Pokestops within a few feet from each other. There would be 300+ people out there. I've heard about one guy who was hit by a beer bottle from a car driving by, there were reports of people drive by shooting with paintball guns, and of people fighting over such things happening.
My fiance and I went under the public pier because it started raining and a group of four men stopped us and started questioning us. Then he got really close to me and stuck his chest out. He was staring me in the face and told me "Next time it rains, and you want to come under this fucking pier... Turn around... You see the building over there? Go there next fucking time. I'm getting really tired of this Pokemon Go bullshit." The whole time he was in my face, shirtless, ripped. Looked like he had been to jail before, and he was probably drunk. I had a whole bunch of other players back us up though, so nobody got hurt thankfully.
The Pokestop was actually just recently removed due to problems like this but they say it's because of "littering." Oh well.
Pokemon Go is just natural selection at it's finest
Showing that opening song at the end just makes you want to play it all over again
I think the veterans flipping off on trainers for playing in a memorial park is a good one that should've been here XD
There is literally no way you can blame the game. Even before it was updated to include extra warnings, the loading screen, from the start, said to STAY AWARE OF SURROUNDINGS. If something happens to you, that just means you didn't heed the warning signs.
7:00
After catching pokemon at a museum, a kid attempts to cross a busy street and gets hit by a car. How is that the game's fault?
The dumb girl shouldn't have tried to cross a busy street, it's just common sense.
I like how most of these don't even have anything to do with Pokemon Go and reporters and the news just add it in to get more attention. If you remove the fact that they weren't playing Pokemon Go, almost nothing would change
Also, that Missouri robbery incident actually happened in O'Fallon, Missouri, a place where I used to live. It feels weird.
You're TOO DAMN RIGHT it wasn't Pokémon GO's fault; adults (and some old-enough teens) need to take some fucking responsibility, ffs...
People can't blame the game when it says that you need to be alert and pay attention to your surroundings and have some common sense
i don't know about other places, but parks around here do have a Curfew of about 11pm
I think raddidluigi put this best "Don't blame the tools, blame the tools using the tools"
I can't believe the girl who gets hit by the car and her mom blame the game.
the Canadian Military had to issue a public statement to get people to stop tresspassing on the CFB Borden mortar and artilery range due to the presence of unexploded ordinance on the range. So that should be #1
Did you know someone is actually writing a "Fairy Tail" fan fiction where Natsu meets Lucy by saving her from getting hit by a car while playing "Pokémon Go"?
i find it funny that people used to love WatchMojo when they were a small channel but now that they are large, the same people are hating on WatchMojo.
Another crazy thing is that a few Canadian kids crossed the boarder trying to catch pokemon.
Nice Pokémon jokes, Watch Mojo. Especially the Exploud one, even though it's a gen-3 Pokémon.
Where I live some guy with a warrant walked right up to the police station because it was a PokeStop and the police were like "doesn't that guy have a warrant?"
Alright... So where's the guy who fell into the lake while live-streaming Pokémon GO? That one was my favourite lulz of the lot. :P
Ey I was there for the Encinitas one hahah
Remember nerdy Pokemon Goer's, the PokeCenter is not real, you cannot be instantly healed from any injury...
>get stabbed
>buy chips and beer
>seek medical attention.
this guy is a badass, that is all.
WatchMojo, the place where horrible puns and every five seconds, there is a different movie/television reference in their videos.
Found these hot twins playing at the park. Told them there was Dragonite at my house. Get there, admit I lied, it was actually a metapod and it's about to use harden. Fun time.
they designed signs for "don't play Pokemon Go in this area" in my country and with the Nijmeegse Avondvierdaagse (a event for four days where you have to walk miles for fun) they had these signs and most of them were stolen
The corpse case here in Germany player stumbled across a couple of corpses in Frankfurt main while playing Pokémon go
Wait why did my dream have me falling of a cliff PLAYING the game hmmmmm...
Congratulation Watchmojo. This is probably the ONLY anime-related list of yours that I found amusing.
Yeah girl you tell em
Great. Of its not enough for parents to worry about school, sports activities , lesson in music, lunchtime, drugs, tardiness, kids simply not turning in homework, sneaking out at night, sex, now it's pokeman. A game.
