    Some of these newer scenarios are frustrating for the wrong reasons. Teenagers don't talk like this, and while they're dumb, they're not *so* dumb to talk about these things right next to adults. Plus the acting just isn't very strong.

    • @adi91216
      @adi91216 Před měsícem +53

      This season is just overall awful. The acting, the scenarios, the places. I think the best has been all done in the old seasons. This is just because John is bored.

    • @Sarah_Violet
      @Sarah_Violet Před měsícem +29

      I've been around teenagers like this in public many times. Teenagers want to seem cool so sometimes they will talk loudy like this in public no matter what the subject is. Obviously not all Teenagers do this but the ones trying to act "cool" have done this before even today's Teenagers.

    • @Diloparker
      @Diloparker Před měsícem +5

      In addition, the factors of this, and many other experiments in this show are very flawed.
      As you’ve mentioned nobody talks like those teens. But the actors are SO unsubtle, so of course everybody’s going to notice. When in actuality most incidents like this go unnoticed.
      Because people are more intelligent than to speak their atrocities *out loud* .
      Also, they conveniently allow the subjects to interact with the victim. Which I guess is to allow the subjects to react, or reveal what they think to the victim.
      But again, this doesn’t happen often; because if they don’t want to act, until the person causing the issue is temporarily gone. Chances are in an actual scenario, most people wouldn’t do anything about it.
      Because who conveniently leaves the victim alone, when their motives is to kidnap them as an example.
      You could argue that the whole point of the social experiments is to show how people feel watching such scenarios. But that’s not the point of the show, it is literally called “What would you do?”!
      The point is supposed to show what people would *do* in these scenarios; but it fails because they are so unrealistic and convenient, they just act as a buffer for the subjects reactions.

    If you're unwilling/unable to name specific social media websites, maybe have them say something along the lines of, "that game that went viral". Having teens say "social media" is really giving, "Howdy-do, fellow adolescents! Have you been keeping up to date on the latest on the tic-tacs?"

    • @spacecadetkaito

    As much as we think we could spot this as a set up .. when it's all happening and you're in that moment .. it's so fast that you either get involved or you don't. I think it would only sink in later that it was obviously an act.

    Any social media challenge of any kind is not, I repeat, not a good idea! Teens today shouldn’t even be doing this

    I'm disappointed in all the women in the background who aren't actors and saw this. They didn't do a single thing. That's disgusting. Don't be afraid to stand up, speak up and shut down bad behavior.

    No adult or even the cop stopped the kids with illegal drugs from leaving to potentially hurt themselves? TAKE THE PILLS ADULTS!

      I doubt anyone can do that legally. You can’t just go over to someone and grab what they have.
