The reality is, some pranks might not be real.

BartFaker is a special case. He is a product. Without Maker and others behind him to help write, produce and set up his content he would be nothing. He's like the Ashlee Simpson of the "YouTube Industry". Honestly I don't even believe he finds even his own content entertaining. He's been quoted on twitter as saying that YouTube is about getting views. With that logic we've seen he as well as many other people will do anything for views.

Now I don't know about this for sure, this is something I've just heard recently but I heard about how a "pregnant" User on YouTube faked having triplets. I guess this woman faked her pregnancy and said she had triplets. From what I've gathered from the Users that told me this, this User even had a room set up devoted to her new children and had the names picked out and everything. I haven't been able to find out who this User was but I haven't done anymore research on it. Also If I remember correctly this User was ousted by someone who actually knew her in her personal life.

Weirdddddd about that last part I mean. As far as Bart, yeah I've grown to basically not be able to stand him. When I first saw one of his parodies I thought it was funny and I was amazed at how perfectly he would mimic the original video. But the more I watched the more he started to just seem like a slimeball, he just acts like one I have nothing in particular I know of him doing he just kinda gives off a sleazy vibe, and then after a while I started noticing that he never thinks outside of the "hate on" box when it comes to the artists he spoofs. He only knows how to make one kind of parody, an insulting one. It's never something clever and unrelated, it's always just mocking the artist, the male artists are gay, the females are psycho *******.

And the more I would watch the more I was like "Yeah I'm starting to think this guy not only isn't funny... he's a d**k..." lol[DOUBLEPOST=1403306976,1403306699][/DOUBLEPOST]

I freaking hate Bart Baker and everyone involved with him. Someone needs to remind them there's a difference between parodies and being hateful.

That's what I felt! I mean the first one I saw was his happy parody, I was laughing at the oversized hate and the way the main guy was dancing and making it seem like they're happy cause they're on coke etc, I found all that amusing. But as you keep watching you start realizing that first off that "Happy" video was pretty mild for him as far as being hateful, and secondly, that's all it ever is. You know I mean I did a parody of "knocking on heavens door" and I just made it "I'm walking on hardwood floor" and it was hilarious, it was about how hard and slippery hardwood floor is it was great. I didn't have to make "This band is more diseased than a *****, they vomit on the bedroom flooroorr" that wouldn't be as funny I'd just be being an a**.

And the fact that he thinks the ONLY way to make a parody is to mock it's just... I don't think me and him would have gotten along if we went to the same highschool hahaha

I watched a program last night on the Headline News network (CNN?) called "Right This Minute". It is one of those TV shows that shows viral videos and so I was curious what clips they would use.

They pointed out that one of the victims in an elevator prank was a previous CNN employee who "left to California to become an actor". They showed a pic of him while employed with CNN and he definitely was the person in the elevator being pranked.

A lot of 'prank' channels are running out of material and a lot pranks (on friends) appear to me to be staged. With the concern about liability and criminal charges, I wonder how many pranks in the future are truly pranks rather than staged entertainment.

On that note, it makes me wonder how much reality TV is reality. A lot of the participants seem to be 'playing' for the camera which doesn't make it reality to me.

To be fair, on my channel, I stage some entertainment sequences or plan some narration ahead of time knowing that something is going to take place. What may seem like an impromptu comment or event may have been planned.

So my questions to you are, does it matter to you if pranks are staged with actors?
Is Reality TV really reality anymore or are they just people who wannabee celebrities?

Edited. I found the video. Jump to 0:46 The guy in the red shirt is the former CNN employee looking to become an actor.

So I've built my way up into the pranking community and i'm friends with quite a few "big" guys in the community. And if it means anything to you, I know of a lot of pranksters that fake their clips. Don't believe everything you see, because trust me, a lot of them aren't real. Even I have trouble competing with some of these guys that pretend to get punched for WSHH and such.

EDIT: Ask me any questions about pranks, and I can probably tell ya

I know man, I just wanna meet the people I've known the longest. It's so weird cause on this forum your friends aren't just screen names, we make videos so for alot of us we know each other's faces and voices and everything, it's so weird to know someone that well for over 2 years but have never hung out in person.

I really hope some day I meet the close internet family I've gained through this site.

I have to wonder did the creators of say this prank :
Go after the people they scared and tell them it was a joke, because that could have you scared for life..

@DM Pranks I heard that you lot are getting charged by the police for this one aswell, Not sure if it was true though.

I can't stand people that fake pranks, Its kinda like they want to be known for having balls but yet they have no balls so they need to sit down and shut the f**k up like the little b***h that they are

A lot of the bigger prankers who do real pranks are actually brought up on charges quite a lot, Vitaly, Roman Atwood, Dennis Roady actually have court appearances coming up and even had something ridiculous like 42 charges brought against them for one video. Now they have a Movie in the works xD

Don't get me started on BF vs GF I cannot f*****g stand them pricks. There all about making money and that nob head with the dumb a** hair cut is always trying to milk the fact that he was in the military like he is some hero, Shut the f**k up mate, you where a military police officer, you didn't do s**t.
