What It Says About....

A guy who made a video (took him 77 total hrs) of himself counting to 100,000. He did the count over the course of several weeks so not a marthon as a project for a class he was taking.

But here's the real story to me:

He said "several people who saw the video have contacted me to tell me about some small mistakes I made." For example, he said, "I skipped the number 90,991....I went from 90,990 to 90,992 and didn't realize it."

This video tells me the guy is pretty boring....but what it says about others is more interesting.

There are people (plural) who watched enough video of a man counting to notice he missed one number 9/10 of the way through a 77 hr stretch.

Put them in a room with the counting guy - and he'd no longer be the most boring guy in the room, I bet.

    My only question is:

    WHAT ARE PEOPLE THINKING?

    Ok, you have a guy that films himself counting to 100K, and then you actually have viewers? to make it worse, they notice his mistake(s) ???

    **** DISCLAIMER**** Logging into the Warrior Forum several times a day (or remaining logged in), is not the same thing.

    In all seriousness, I can't and never will, understand how stupid people have gotten! Sad...

    If it was a project for a class he was taking I am not sure he is the boring one.

    But definitely says a lot about someone that watches enough to notice a missed number....I'm just sayin'

    I skip around large videos. If THEY did, they coud have noticed the problem in potentially SECONDS!

    This thread about it was hard for me to get through. I kept waiting for punchline. LOL.

    I've heard that there's people that actually watched a full ten hours of that video about the cat that never did anything. Even after 10 minutes of Badger when I was first online, I figured out the punchline is sometimes - nothing ever happens.

        Question is - how many times do you fast forward and watch a bit before you figure out nothing is going to happen???

    I don't know,some of the videos like this are very interesting.
    I can't remember who it was but a few months back someone posted this video. ( I actually think I know who,but I am not naming names).

    And just for the sake of truth in advertising,I had to sit and watch it to make sure he didn't miscount.

    Twice.
