That guy is not homeless. He has his own YouTube channel.

Besides, why give money to men in suits? They'd probably just use it for their cocaine habit, anyways.

True homeless people dont usually have a friend standing round the corner filming them y#-o

It was an experiment which is explained through out the clip.

No shat Sherlock!


My point is that he's not homeless. Therefore, none of the reactions are how they would really react, if he were homeless.

Let me spell this out for you...

His experiment was rigged. It fails.

Disagree Rick. They all appear to believe he's homeless.
Obviously, it's strange having this "homeless" person giving you money and they're left confused.
BUT, their reaction I think clearly show the true heart and as long as they feel superior it's all good.

Maybe.

But the point still stands that he is not homeless. How many times has a homeless person tried to give someone walking by, money.

The experiment is not honest. So how can you think the reactions are honestly what people would do, if it were really a homeless person?

The point of the video isn't that.
People aren't really looking his direction.
One guy says "I could buy you." People are thick and it takes a while for it to click.

You don't need an experiment to know most people are pretentious though.
They like to think of themselves lending a hand, but it's more like dog eat dog. They'll kick others in the guts they feel one up on. In church, Jesus talks of them being the ones praying aloud wonderful words, who have probably practiced over and over again in front of the mirrors. Jesus says they have their reward and we shouldn't be like such hypocrites.

Really, many will only help, so long as their bubble isn't popped.
And I'm not perfect in this respect here, but I always treat everyone with respect until they play a bad card.
It's one things I'm disgusted by in human nature and in society.
I quite liked the video when I watched it several months ago.

Thank you Rick, you're not homeless though?
I'll throw your money back in your face if you are. ;)

I just realized it was L.A.

Nevermind. You're right. L.A. is the pretentious capital of the world.

I did like that 2nd to last Guy's reaction. He gave him all the money he had.

I liked the guy who was like 'You pr**k!' and took the money anyway :mrgreen:

Ok, I didnt like him but it was funny and totally shows how hypocritical we can be.
