[Misc] Is this funny?

[pastafarian]

I wonder if he was shouting "Allahu Akbar" when he threw the bag for extra effect?

The guy has done a few videos where no music has been added
sometimes he offers up an islamic prayer,sometimes shouts "run" or "5 seconds"
there is a video where he just sits calmly sits down next to his victims closes his eyes as if in prayer and the rucksack starts a robot recorded countdown

Really takes the piss out of all the people who have died at the hands of these real lunatics.

When I saw what this was about, I decided its not funny at all.

Then I watched it, and laughed my tits off. I don't know what this means. But the guy who jumped in the lake cracked my arse up.

For 99% of people fear over rides all instinct and you bolt like a scared bunny.All pranks contain a degree of non-consensual conning, but its also human nature to find it funny.

One of them did get shot for doing this, but by a member of the public

Sounds good to me!

Mouth wide open warped funny in that it’s shocking that they have the audacity to do pranks like that. The guy running away up the escalator was a funny scenario.

They kind of get away with it because they are Arab.

Shame there isn't a really funny but wrong option.

 

[LowerWesty]

Sounds good to me!

This, just hope the video is released so we can see the idiot get his cumupence

But the whole dress code is completely wrong, stereotyping isn't funny either, the only way could ever be funny is someone shooting the prankster.

As a matter of interest, why did you find it funny? I found it funny, because of the reactions of the victims, given the absurdity of the assailant and the situations (blowing up a park bench, etc). . Beny Hill with a plastic axe, and that. The antithesis of Tarantino. Maybe I'm missing something . . .

Pretty much the same thing. As others have said although it made me laugh it isn't something I would defend because the victims are completely innocent and could possibly harm themselves while running away. The poor taste aspect doesn't bother me though as I normally enjoy shocking/inappropriate jokes.

Made me laugh....perhaps I'm sick!

Perfect. Having a daughter and grandson in Melbourne, I'd happily shoot the f***ers myself if they tried it on them.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

I thought it was funny for different reasons the tuff guy sitting on the railing, who was glaring at the Arab as he walked up to them however ran the furthest and quickest launching himself over the spiked fence. The two lads again eye balling the Arab walk into the shop, them all charging out of the shop throwing paper in the air. The guy taking off at break neck speed only to be confronted by another backpack throwing Arab was just ridiculous to the point you would have just twigged right then.

No surprise it was filmed in Australia, they also do an Arab take on MTV cribs show which is extremely racist.

I prefer it when the pranks backfire

Some pranks are ok, Dom Jolly on Trigger Happy TV would often make me laugh. Letting people shit themselves because they think that they are going to die isn't very funny.

 

[nicko31]

The kind of people who laugh at this used to watch Little and Large in the 80's...

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Some of that looks staged to me. Especially the guy running into the water. Not at all funny.
