The sibling that plugged it in is a little demon.

Staged demon

u/JelloWise2789 2d ago

She made sure that it was sizzling hot before handing it back to the younger sibling

u/Solid-Search-3341 1d ago

No iron get sizzling hot in 3 seconds. That's what tells us it's staged. It was at best lukewarm.

u/THICC_Baguette 1d ago

Our iron gets hot in like 10 seconds. But this is definitely staged.

u/Solid-Search-3341 23h ago

Shit, mine takes 3-4 minutes. What brand is yours?

u/THICC_Baguette 17h ago

Id have to have a look when I'm back, but it's just some random iron we have at my student house. Probably not anything fancy, though I've never looked into it

1

u/notdragoisadragon 23h ago

To be fair, an iron going from cold to lukewarm would probs make some people jump

u/Could-You-Tell 6h ago

The other end of that socket wasn't connected more than likely. Or it was not on.

u/EtrnlMngkyouSharngn 2d ago

Nah the father is the demon. He was right there! He was so lost ignoring his own children and playing on his phone that he literally got burnt! Even the kid noticed and hesitated!

47

u/HamsterKazam 2d ago

No, he was he idiot that let them play with it. The elder child is obviously a psychopathic little demon.

Father gave the child an unplugged Iron he is not wrong … he took care of the safety… older child deliberately orchestrated this so she is psychopath

u/Vegetable-Syrup-5545 1d ago

Not only did she plug it in but tested to make sure it was hot. Would agree that it is staged.

"but why were they filming"

Totally staged.

u/photozine 2d ago

Like most stuff online nowadays, that's why it's so difficult to enjoy social media anymore, everything is staged.

12

u/CaptainHubble 2d ago

And people tell me to just start having fun watching those. Like it's a switch you can turn on. I physically can't. They don't care if they're staged. But I do.

All these skits and set up "funny" clips just aren't funny or even remotely interesting to me. Am I getting old?

I just want real stuff man. No staged shit, no AI slop and no fake stories.

And no, going to watch a 2h movie with a carefully written but made story to tell isn't the same.

2

u/photozine 2d ago

We ARE old haha

But, to your point, if I'm watching something staged, I'd rather watch a well produced show or movie, not talentless people that want to be famous.

u/India_Golf99 8h ago

I'm 25 now. I've been using internet since I was 7 or something. By 12 I had already gotten fed up with staged shit and nowadays is even more common. How can it be fun? How is someone lying and playing stupid funny? They're literally trying to trick me. It's not an old people thing, it's just common sense.

2

u/RentDueFixDoor 1d ago

90% of the internet nowadays feels like a distraction rather than creating something people genuinely like.

u/CaptainHubble 1d ago

I like they way you put it. That's the core problem.

u/glordicus1 22h ago

So true! Things can't be funny or enjoyable unless they're candid. I literally hate television, it's so scripted. Stand up comedians literally just tell the same jokes night after night, did you know it's all rehearsed? Don't get me started on musicians.

1

u/photozine 16h ago

I never said that.

What I dislike is people thinking they're talented and staging videos that are not only not enjoyable, they're cringy, and this video is somewhat there.

My point is, people trying to pass staged videos as candid, make social media I unenjoyable for me.

1

u/DrSomniferum 10h ago

I think that's reasonable. Like I'll watch sketch comedy troops all day, but if they tried to pretend it's all real, they'd lose me.

u/Prohawins 2d ago

u/FrohikesFeather 1d ago

OK? And? Still funny

1

u/India_Golf99 8h ago

ah yes, grown-ass people playing stupid and lying to me is so funny

1

u/FrohikesFeather 7h ago

That's.... That's literally what comedy is? Like, you've literally just described acting.

1

u/India_Golf99 6h ago

The difference is that acting is sold as fictional. When I watch a movie, I very much know that it's just a story being told and no one is trying to trick me.

1

u/FrohikesFeather 3h ago

Unless it's "based on a true story" or found footage, or any of the many other genres that pretend to be non fiction

1

u/Silomafia 1d ago

I don't know....

1

u/temporalraccoon 20h ago

I agree. But do these people like rehearse this with their kids? That just seems so crazy and a bit sad - all for what - some likes on socials? Wonder what it teaches the kids

u/Fadeluna 2d ago

I doubt that iron could heat that quick

2

u/Maple_Strip 1d ago

Yes they could? Mine could at least...

u/Madstupid 2d ago

My fault. For watching this.

u/Geraldino_GER 2d ago

A fitting punishment for parents who would rather spend time with their smartphone than with their children.

34

u/Tinkerer0fTerror 2d ago

Agreed. This is on dad. Kids shouldn’t have access to an iron, unsupervised. Especially when near an outlet. Kids will be kids. they can’t help it.

Parents should be parents. It’s their responsibility to be present in these moments.

8

u/Normal-Pianist4131 2d ago

Disagreed, this is a fake video and was done for views

1

u/Tinkerer0fTerror 17h ago

I’m commenting on the video as it stands.

I don’t care if it’s staged. Others will see it and learn the wrong thing.

2

u/Argentillion 2d ago

You actually cannot see that this is clearly staged?

0

u/Tinkerer0fTerror 17h ago

Does that change anything about my comment?

It’s worse if it’s staged because now both parents have encouraged their children to see the iron as a toy. Still makes them shit parents and my first comment covered that.

1

u/Argentillion 16h ago

Yeah, it changes your comment completely. Which is why you just made that new comment with a different point altogether

11

u/Wonkasgoldenticket 2d ago

How to tell us you don’t have kids without actually telling us you don’t have kids lol.

I love both my boys and I’m a stay at home dad for the most part, but there’s absolutely times I need some me time and don’t want the kids up my ass so to speak. There’s nothing wrong with dad being on his phone we don’t know this man’s day to day.

Either way, in this situation dads in lala land and not paying attention to anything going on around him. If you have kids and young ones at that, you always have one eye watching.

3

u/Loving-intellectual 2d ago

Exactly, but also, don’t give them an iron

4

u/MarquiseAlexander 2d ago

The iron would take time to actually heat up.

Fastest heating iron in the world.

Good advertisement for condoms

u/PKblaze 2d ago

The dad. If you let your kid play with an iron, chances are they're gonna end up fucking around with it on at some point.

1

u/sniktology 2d ago

Ok atleast it got to the part where we see the dad reacts. I would've raged if it ended just as the iron almost plops onto his torso.

1

u/Hate_Crab 2d ago

A perfectly cut scream? In my gifs that end too soon?

1

u/Rachelle_Nylon 2d ago

I’d say the sister. She’s looks old enough to know better and on top of that females mature earlier than males. I wouldn’t be surprised if she plugged it in on purpose knowing the the young boy would just continue doing what he was doing. Maybe the father can be to blame but still the daughter knew what she was doing. She even felt it before handing it back to the boy.

1

u/Dooyamum 2d ago

Maybe the grown ass adult for letting children play with extension cords and hot irons.

1

u/notdragoisadragon 23h ago

He only let them play with a cold iron, the girl just turnt it into a hot iron.

1

u/JP-Gambit 2d ago

Seen a similar one before, kid ironing clothes pretends to burn himself and then throws the iron onto his dad, except it wasn't plugged in from the beginning. In this video they're pretending to plug it in, but that power outlet extender isn't actually plugged in. The dad is in on it because he's got his phone charger in there, pretending that it's charging his phone. The fan is a nice touch, but that's plugged in elsewhere, likely at the wall.strange that he wouldn't plug his phone charger in there too, even stranger to put the extender up on the bed next to you rather than on the ground by the bed or something. Anyway all staged.

u/notdragoisadragon 23h ago

Back in my day we called staged content "skits"

u/JP-Gambit 21h ago

Feels different when there's no context

u/ohuxford 2d ago

That's an evil child. She'll be a problem when she grows up.

1

u/Affectionate_Cup_272 2d ago

How did that iron heat up so fast? It normally would take around 5 minutes

1

u/Traditional_Spite535 2d ago

Always handle an ironing iron as if it was loaded

1

u/DANleDINOSAUR 2d ago

This is just a remake

u/TrickyCH 1d ago

Staged. Not funny. Next.

1

u/notdragoisadragon 23h ago

Would you rather see a man get a horrific burn on their stomach?

1

u/TrickyCH 13h ago

I'd rather don't see staged crap like that, time to shut down the internet for dumb people sharing dumb things without any limits.

Is it funny ? NO

Is it watchworthy ? NO

Did it need to take some space on a random server around the world and use way too much energy to keep it stored ? NO

1

u/Dyzzle89 1d ago

That made me jump pretty good

1

u/Gofers 1d ago

Problem is all of them. Why is the kid playing with a heavy iron anyway? That's the first problem.

Dad not paying attention, he might be just taking a break but still need to know what your kids are doing.

Older kid not only getting their sibling in trouble but physically getting their dad hurt. Bad sign right away for many reasons.

Younger kid should have seen those two issues and stopped. But is still young and might follow their older sibling without thinking about it.

Of course it's staged and most of this doesn't matter. I don't see a young kid playing with a heavy iron that just happens to be out.
