I always keep a camera monitoring half of my table and the bottom 5 steps of my stairs.

That's where 94% of home invasions begin.

I literally have a camera aimed at the bottom of my stairs and some points of the house too, no idea why people are so surprised!

OP's video shows a camera pointed at their supposedly front door (it has a lock), I don't know why this is odd at all.

because this is staged and babies don't typically do this type of thing. Her reaction tells it all if you've ever had a kid. They spend weeks standing like this, and for her to be so surprised by her kid standing is telling.

This is such a good point. My first thought was that even my daughter took her first steps, it was like two steps and then she fell down. The kid in this video takes a lot of steps for it being their first time. I was immediately skeptical.

Also, it was proceeded by many weeks of standing and supporting herself with furniture. No surprise to just stand up.

Mind you, I have 2 children (a two year old and a seven year old), our son when he first started walking did the exact behavior in the video. He stood up and propelled himself forward taking 4-5 steps and then falling over, and we have that on video because he was trying to stand up but we had no idea he'd be taking his first steps too.

I'm not saying what I see is not possible, it's not outside the realm of possibilities.

Yup this. You know about when they are going to take their first steps. So our youngest we started to record our play sessions. It’s really not that out of the ordinary.

(We don’t have our oldest since we didn’t have easy access to video in phones back then)

ok internet stranger. overall this acting is very bad and clearly it is staged.

I agree, she totally gave the baby the script and spent 10 hours filming hoping the baby would follow the instructions

What script? a baby standing up like normal? A baby walking towards mom like normal? Yea, takes a lot of skill to capture that moment for sure!

This is so cynical lol. Nothing ever happens.

Yes, a camera looking directly at the floor when people come in your front door. Very normal.

Is your camera waist high?

OP's video shows a camera pointed at their supposedly front door (it has a lock), I don't know why this is odd at all.

A camera that is placed at a low vantage point from seemingly somewhere in the middle of their living space and centered so that it perfectly captures the baby on the ground instead of the door.

If you have a camera set up in this position and this angle, then you're the odd one, not everyone else who thinks this is odd. It is odd.

This is not a surveillance camera. No home surveillance camera is gonna record in this quality.

You sure the door in the back isn't leading to the outside?

u/whatsinthesocks 13h ago

There’s literally a door to the outside right there. Seems like everyone is ignoring that

u/Lala5789880 8h ago

I mean, there is an exterior door right there.

u/rbra 19h ago

There is this crazy thing you can do, called cropping. I don’t know if it will catch on though.

u/50calPeephole 19h ago

The weirdest door is back there, you can see the handle and lock.
