“Between 2009 and 2012, iPhones had a built-in “Send to YouTube” button in the Photos app. Many of these uploads kept their default IMG_XXXX filenames, creating a time capsule of raw, unedited moments from random lives.”

One of these good examples of failed privacy, have fun…

    Holy shit I got this one:

    I’m trying to work out if it’s real or not. It’s from 2013, so I guess VFX wasn’t so great back then, but then… where? and when? and why?

    Edit: I’ve been duped by mediocre graphics, don’t worry I’m writing my will as we speak.

      I remember this app.

      It was an app called “Action Movie” by the Bad Robot studios people. It overlaid effects on top of what you recorded with the camera and this was one of the free effects.

      It’s 100% fake because nothing happens to the other cars. They don’t explode out of the way, they don’t anything. They all just sit there.

      If you pause it in the middle, you can see the explosion is clearly a clip laid over the car video.

        Oh yeah. I guess I was just sold by the tyre trails coming off the black car. It’s a nice touch.

    This is the equivalent of buying an old camcorder at the thrift store and finding some random family’s tape still in it of some kid’s birthday party from 1994.

    Found a really funny one with two kids doing a skit about a drink in their garden, then an Helicopter crashes in their yard

    Edit: this is a montage and the helicopter is part of the skit but unexpected turn of events

    Found a funny one of an Eastern European kid in blue shorts spinning himself around to make himself dizzy. I remember doing the same thing when I was a kid.

    Then YouTube started blocking the videos because it thought I was a bot:/
