I'm sometimes disappointed that reaction channels exist where an American guy looks at videos about Europe and says "Huh, that's crazy... hehe... yeah... wow, really? I should look that up.... Yeah, that wouldn't happen here.... Well, see y'all tomorrow" But then I remember that tik tok reactions can literally be just a guy pointing.
@@seededsoul the hell 😂 this guy isn’t recording that and posting it to gain sh*tloads of views for doing next to nothing, the point is that it’s scummy
This is why I get rid of the shorts thing on youtube whenever it comes up. Like, the videos *do* make you want to click, but then it's like, "why the fuck did I just waste my time watching that?"
Also I forgot to say, this sketch really hit the mark! It was hilarious. And shameless plug... I'm also hoping some of you might like the music that I make :)
People freebooting your videos that take weeks to make is one of the most frustrating things ever. I thought this video was going to be a commentary about short attention spans, but it turned out to be much deeper. Love your stuff.
Didn't expect you here, Destin! Freebooting has been awful for so long, I remember when Facebook started it and it spread to Reddit and now Twitter, Tiktok and basically everything just copies other videos under the "reaction" category. It's awful.
@@gottalivehappy It's called binge-watching. Mostly it's done on TV but in the Modern Age people do it with their phones. I don't do it because free time is dead.
Ryan, I don’t think you could’ve captured TikTok more than you did in this. Awesome video as always ❤ Edit: wow getting a lot of likes on my comment was super easy, barely an inconvenience
"No Jonathan... you've been watching for four hours.." Perfect delivery matched with the eerie music absolutely killed me, I can tell you loved doing that bit
3:13 Ryan here deserves a bloody Oscar. That performance I dare say is better and more disturbing than Pearl’s ending scene. Tells you “I’m haunting you, barely an inconvenience” 👁️👄👁️
As someone who currently suffers from three family members who have been absorbed into the TikTok matrix, I have to thank you for making this so that I may use it to free them from their gooey sarcophagus egg husk cages.
I now know that Ryan clearly has a dark side that none of us can ever understand. The man's eyes can switch from so wholesome to so menacing in an instant. Wow wow wow.... wow.
Man, yeah i noticed that too. It was chilling and awesome all at once. I get the feeling that our boy is a really nice fella. A lot of people equate niceness with weakness. A lot of people are wrong. Niceness is a sign of strength because it can be so diffucult to be nice these days. Also, i have found that when a nice person gets mean, it is scary. O
It is so much fun watching Ryan grow where he can hire so many more supporting actors. I'm proud to say I've been a subscriber since there were only 2 Ryans.
I just love that one video where he hired a young bearded girl. That was so fun. I wonder why he never made any video with her again and where is she now. You know, being a bearded girl that looks like a 30 something Canadian male must be really hard.
The pointers are the worst especially the ones pointing at things that are completely wrong. They're always the most smug, confident and proud of their pointing
The menacing stare of pointing guy gave me some serious anxiety, but the ending where the two are laughing in amnesia somehow makes it far scarier. Great work!
Words cannot describe how accurate this video was. The cringe, the irrelevant add-ons, the commentaries, the lazy content creators, the unnecessary part 2 and how it erases our concept of time. I would rather die than installing TikTok or opening UA-cam Shorts.
I agree with what your saying if it was dialed down a bit, if that makes sense. I think you’re right, and also, if you have a following on TikTok and you duet/react to someone else’s content, you are helping being attention to the original content, which can be huge for smaller accounts trying to grow.
Ryan confirming yet again that he is good people by understanding, and therefore being horrified by, the void that is TikTok. Truly the hero the internet needs.
In order to use UA-cam, Ryan had to give up some of his rights to his content, which allows people even on UA-cam to do the same thing and make reaction videos. It's not just TikTok. It's ALL big tech.
People can make actual commentary and parody and it's Fair Use. That is law in the US and similarly true most everywhere else, nothing to do with big tech. HOWEVER just pointing at something isn't making substantiative changes or adding to the original work in any meaningful way. It's not fair use, it infringes on someone else's intellectual property. The issue is that it is so difficult to monitor, track and pointless to litigate, so nothing gets done about it.
I avoid the app like the plague. I haven’t the slightest idea as to how many find these interesting. This parody might be a good way to express to others my disinterest to the platform. You nailed it, Ryan! Keep it up!
So I used it for two days when if first came out. The second day was a Friday around 5pm. I used it for what I thought was 10 mins. Nope.....about 3 hours past. That shit hasn't happened to me since playing games as a kid. I deleted it that very moment. Never redownload it and after some friends who were in their mid to early 20s that I met recently, I then got some insight into current tiktok Instagram snap and what not and am very glad I don't really use any of it really.
I don't avoid the app like the plague I avoid the app like if I'm within the same room as it for more than 34.3189 seconds I will perish forever and ever
Honestly, it feels like someone dunking your head in a raging river. Just slamming your face with a constant rush of content to keep you hooked. Eventually you just have to push their phone away to take a fucking breath.
I have to wonder if the fact that it's a format where you have to hold the screen makes it feel longer. Though then again, that wouldn't explain how easy it is to get swallowed whole by a social media feed for hours in the same format.
Two things - Thank you for affirming why I don't ever need to watch TikTok, and WOW - I've never seen Ryan be menacing/ creepy. It's so out of character, but I am both fascinated and oddly thrilled. Somebody put this guy in a real movie , already.
wed need someone to pitch his movie to a studio. anyone know how to pitch a movie? anyone ever been in a pitch meeting before? Id guess that will be very difficult...
I remember about a year or two before it took off, I saw CONSTANT, nauseating amounts of video ads for tiktok, and my immediate thoughts towards it were "I hate this, and they're marketing it so aggressively that it's going to be popular". Sometimes I hate when I'm right.
Man, I hate to be dramatic, but this video is profound. The 30 seconds to 4 hours is horrific and accurate. Ryan shows his own skill here as well as making a fantastic social commentary. You keep getting better and better.
@@gaydonaldtrump nice troll attempt, I only waste hours of time on UA-cam, not TikTok. That obviously makes me better than the people this video is making fun of.
Yes, that hit home for me too. I actually uninstalled it after a couple hours passed and it literally felt like 15 minutes. I feel bad for those sucked in because tech and game companies go as far as reseaching psychology to make things extra addictive.
That was unironically terrifying. Part of the reason I avoid Tik Tok, apart from me hating social media and it just seeming like Twitter’s toxicity in video format, is because I know I have neither the social media nor willpower to not lose myself in it. I also have enough self-loathing and depression that I’d welcome any waste of time that makes me forget that I’m alive regardless of how horrible it’d make me feel after and during… *insert funny joke to lighten the mood here*
Lowkey the face acting work here to make yourself look like a different person was actually incredible and I haven’t seen many people able to do it that many different ways with just facial muscle changes and angle posing. If I didn’t know they were all you due to the format I might have actually not realized it for long enough to be embarrassing.
Speaking of people mindlessly doing and saying things they got online. Why are you saying "lowkey"? Can we just talk about, is no one gonna mention, literally, probably one of the most. Just say what you want to say.
The only good thing I've seen on TikTok is a Texan renaming the seasons in Texas so accurately that it has become my new lexicon. We just wrapped up Shuffle and are heading into Actual Spring which means Pre-Summer is just around the corner, and I swear Melt gets longer every year.
I mean the ccp though so I can see where this viewpoints coming from Edit: CCP stands for the chinese communist party, aka the corrupt government body that governs China with an iron fist and has control in the policies of TikTok
Honestly it's pretty cool. I mean you have no reason not to. I mean you have people dunk on it but there are cool impressionists and musicians out there on it
I’m 23 years old and the TikTok my friends send in the group chats really makes me feel like an old man. I’m always tempted to ask which part I’m supposed to laugh at👴🏽
That's simply a terrible sense of humor. Have three like that in my group that constantly post the most idiotic shiz whilst laughing maniacally. We all watch it like WTF why? Can't help but be somewhat envious of them as life must be soooo great being so easily amused but at the same time... Nahhh lol.
I’m a simple man - I see a new Ryan George video, I immediately stop whatever I’m doing and watch it an edit after finishing the video: unexpectedly unnerving ending 10/10 I felt real fears
At first I was giggling at the commentary of the state of TikTok vids, and then I got that unexpected payoff mid-sketch where it became all-too-real. Awesome.
I feel this way constantly. I’ll get home and lay down and accidentally click on UA-cam shorts and then 6 hours later realize I never ate lunch or dinner.
I always click a couple interesting ones, but I never scroll cuz that's how you go down a 4 hour rabbit hole. Also be careful to scroll the widget just enough to see the thumbnail that gets clipped off, but not enough to load the next shorts thumbnail cuz then you'll prob be curious about the few pixels you can see.
I know right? I never took Ryan to be flashy and drippy, but that's a pretty obscene display of wealth. I bet he didn't even make a real omelette with them, just threw them away.
Long time watcher first time commenter here. As a person named Jonathan who is well into my thirties and definitely is starting to do things like a grandfather and is equally annoyed by the Tiktok video creation formulas, this video resonates with me in a way I've only dreamed of in the past. Kudos, Ryan George. You're truly doing God's work. Thank you for making actual content and not just videos where you overlay yourself pointing at the original video. 🙏
I was spooked, I tell you, when Ryan started saying my name in a very serious manner while looking at the camera. Also in my thirties and just feeling very called out right now.
@@c.a.g.7707 hey, dont feel bad. im only 18 and i choose to only have youtube (no other social medias) and even then i get distracted with it too much, so i know i dont need more things for my ADHD brain to procrastinate with. 😁👍
I was gonna finish reading your comment but it doesn't have subway surfer playing underneath it with a AI voice over so unfortunately it didn't keep my attention and I stopped after the 3rd word
That's why I deleted the reddit app too. I found my days disappearing into the abyss of meaningless posts and Rickroll after Rickroll. There's plenty of decent content, particularly in the hobby or niche groups, but the company is determined to push all the popular content, and I was constantly distracted by doomscrolling trash.
2:20 “So now I need to go to this guy’s profile to see part 2?” “Yes, try to find the one that’s a continuation of this one” is the best part of this video.
Oh my god you summed it up perfectly. The annoying robotic voice, the car game playing in the background while the person explains something totally irrelevant and the pointing to the text. Well done👏
@@thomasneal9291 more like a withered mannequin. Nothing behind those eyes, like a soulless husk trying to look human. Like something wearing the skin of the living.
It always remind me of youtubers who talk about certain topic, but instead of putting alot of effort to edit videos, they just put webcam and straight up click others' youtube video and called it content/reacts.
@@Rainin.7 I am more forgiving for the specialists reactions. They are basically reviewing something, adding information you didn't know. The "omg this" people are worthless tho.
I like the content, and it makes me laugh. I'm not exactly addicted since I do constantly delete and redownload it. The amount you consume is usually the issue
The robotic world of Tik tok (social media)..the wait for it, the reaction on the reaction video and commentary at the end video..the random gaming video over an actual important message video and my fav the pointless pointing videos. This will not fix the silly world of tik toks and reels, but makes me feel better....we are not alone. Thanks Ryan George.
Apparently the only reason Vine failed is because a communist country did not fund the product and then export it globally as a psyop to make the western world more easily manipulated. Hmmm. Clever girl.
Instagram Reels can be like this, I’ve seen accounts with videos of people just staring at the camera and there’s some meme or news headline plastered over their heads, like who watches these videos??
This video is great. It gets the problems and the pointless videos totally on point. I thought back then, that having everyone making content will increase the quality. But it didn't happen. In the end people watch shit, like a person fake laughing and agreeing to a video they didn't make. And it gets millions of views. It's not just Tik Tok. UA-cam Shorts and Instagram are basically the same now. I hope one day we get back to what social media was all about: Connecting with your friends and share your experiences. Now it's just flexing and trash content.
The "reaction-ception" trend on YT where people basically just spout inanities while replaying an actual creator's carefully-put-together video (or reacting to a reaction vid, & so on & so on...) seems like another symptom of this problem? Ditto the many clip aggregator channels... There ARE plenty of legitimate commentators who do credit original posters and add a lot of extra information or thoughtful commentary to supplement the original work! But there also seem to be a lot of pointless freeloaders 🙁 Just clogs up the site & makes it even harder for true creatives to get their content in front of interested eyeballs...?
@@DameOfDiamonds Yes, I don't think it's a specifically TikTok-related phenomenon? And definitely nothing against those who add a lot of genuine value in their reaction vids! I've just seen an awful lot popping up lately who don't do so, and who really seem to be just unethically piggybacking off hard-working creators' content.
Somehow I've watched this video like 10 times and only now got my brain to see Ryan's hand and everything else from the Ryan pov that isn't the clip. There's tons of detail that your brain just filters out. That's actually like a really well done pov shot such that your brain doesn't even notice it and totally suspends disbelief that it's real.
The "wait for it" part is so they can monetize it. It has to be over a certain time to be monetized. So you just stretch out a tiny bit of content that way.
Great video, Ryan, I've got to get to the hospital in a minute to see the birth of my first child but I just wanted to take a minute to jump on here and say, I'm from Ohio and we really do love eggs but maybe not as much as you portray here in your video and.... now I'm being told that it's been 3 hours since I started watching UA-cam to pass the time while I was on the toilet, and I've missed the birth of my son. Looks like it's been 6 days since I've realized I missed the birth of my son, and now my wife is divorcing me. Damn
The part with the video game footage is exceptionally true. I think it's due to the fact that it keeps you stimulated whilst watching the video, therefore increasing watch time. What's ironic is that having to keep the viewer stimulated is due in part to short attention spans; a symptom caused by social media itself.
@@rustyshackleford6035 well theres actually some good content on yt and not a lot of people doing weird stuff and cringy dances while the video is narrated by an ai that makes me have a stroke
This probably took longer to make than any of your pitch meetings. I bet it wasn't easy at all, and that it was a big inconvenience. But thank you for sacrificing yourself to make entertaining content for us! 😂
Just adding this to the pile of "why Tik Tok sucks" reasons- Seriously though I will never fully comprehend Ryan's ability to act out such perfectly discernible characters while still being just himself. My guy somehow convinced me every stitch in the video was actually done by a different person
I think calling it "CONTENT" deeply undervalues the idea of creating art and now we have an entire generation that now feels self-conscious 24/7 and needs to pump out performative nonsense every chance they can. For no reason. Everything is just classed as content now. Music Video - CONTENT Video Essay - CONTENT Cooking Video - CONTENT Comedy Sketch - CONTENT Animation - CONTENT Let's Play - CONTENT TikTok Dance - CONTENT Tech Review - CONTENT All the algorithm cares about is that you keep making it.
The angry pointing face close to the end was hilarious. The video as a whole definitely sums up problems with video making as a whole recently, and viral nature
Please let us ACTUALLY get a part two of this, this had the potential to be the coolest series Ryan makes, two friends go to shut down the internet amalgamation of TikTok Like for part two guys
Honestly, I would love to just see the series develop into his commentary on other internet trends... I mean if he comments more on TikTok I don't know if there's anything else he could have said that wasn't portrayed in this video.
NONONONONONONO!!! DONT YOU SEE WHAT HE IS DOING, FIRST HE POSTS PART 1, THEN PART 2, AND THE MORE YOU ASK THE MORE HE WILL MAKE AND THE MORE HOURS YOU WILL LOSE. IT IS ALL PART OF HIS MASTER PLAN!
Yeah, I have zero idea why it is popular, how it became popular, or who watches it. I already hated it when youtubers did that stupid jump cut adhd style of editing, and tiktok and whatever made that just even more insufferable.
Also how are you guys getting here so early just to post something and get the most likes and why is this so philosophical i just saw this in my inbox and commented when I wanted to
Yep hate it so much, Tiktok is a plague and the day after youtube added Shorts I installed a youtube shorts blocker never seen a single one and life has been good.
Pointing guy is actually the point. It's a psychologically powerful way to tell you how to feel about something without making you feel directly manipulated. Great video. Hits all the points. I eagerly await part 2 where we can see more videogame while the talking head spouts on about a completely disconnected subject.
I don't feel the same way people point. Think about it. If a waiter shows you the dessert menu on a tray and you want the triple chocolate cake and somebody points at a berry crumble as to what they want, do you change your mind to ordering the berry crumble? That is how weak, undecided minds work, not strong ones. You might want to try a nibble of their dish, but just so you can confirm how dumb they were for ordering it and you can gloat over the superiority of your delish chocolate, and you shake your head no laughing at that first dry, gritty, sour fruity bite, knowing they were a fool for ordering a berry crumble.

All that's missing is inspirational dancing to say sorry for SA.
I remember about a year or two before it took off, I saw CONSTANT, nauseating amounts of video ads for tiktok, and my immediate thoughts towards it were "I hate this, and they're marketing it so aggressively that it's going to be popular".
Sometimes I hate when I'm right.

Yes, that hit home for me too. I actually uninstalled it after a couple hours passed and it literally felt like 15 minutes. I feel bad for those sucked in because tech and game companies go as far as reseaching psychology to make things extra addictive.
That was unironically terrifying.
Part of the reason I avoid Tik Tok, apart from me hating social media and it just seeming like Twitter’s toxicity in video format, is because I know I have neither the social media nor willpower to not lose myself in it. I also have enough self-loathing and depression that I’d welcome any waste of time that makes me forget that I’m alive regardless of how horrible it’d make me feel after and during… *insert funny joke to lighten the mood here*

Lowkey the face acting work here to make yourself look like a different person was actually incredible and I haven’t seen many people able to do it that many different ways with just facial muscle changes and angle posing. If I didn’t know they were all you due to the format I might have actually not realized it for long enough to be embarrassing.
Speaking of people mindlessly doing and saying things they got online. Why are you saying "lowkey"? Can we just talk about, is no one gonna mention, literally, probably one of the most. Just say what you want to say.

Keep repeating that. I'm sure you'll convince young people if you just stay stuck in that mindset
The only good thing I've seen on TikTok is a Texan renaming the seasons in Texas so accurately that it has become my new lexicon. We just wrapped up Shuffle and are heading into Actual Spring which means Pre-Summer is just around the corner, and I swear Melt gets longer every year.

As a person named Jonathan who is well into my thirties and definitely is starting to do things like a grandfather and is equally annoyed by the Tiktok video creation formulas, this video resonates with me in a way I've only dreamed of in the past.
Kudos, Ryan George. You're truly doing God's work. Thank you for making actual content and not just videos where you overlay yourself pointing at the original video. 🙏
I was spooked, I tell you, when Ryan started saying my name in a very serious manner while looking at the camera. Also in my thirties and just feeling very called out right now.

When he was told he was watching for 4 hours and his day was gone, I felt that deeply. Reminds me why I deleted tiktok in the first place.
legit same here
And then youtube shorts happened 😭
I was gonna finish reading your comment but it doesn't have subway surfer playing underneath it with a AI voice over so unfortunately it didn't keep my attention and I stopped after the 3rd word
That's why I deleted the reddit app too. I found my days disappearing into the abyss of meaningless posts and Rickroll after Rickroll. There's plenty of decent content, particularly in the hobby or niche groups, but the company is determined to push all the popular content, and I was constantly distracted by doomscrolling trash.
2:20 “So now I need to go to this guy’s profile to see part 2?” “Yes, try to find the one that’s a continuation of this one” is the best part of this video.
Oh my god you summed it up perfectly. The annoying robotic voice, the car game playing in the background while the person explains something totally irrelevant and the pointing to the text. Well done👏

3:30 Dude, you nailed that Kubrick stare, gave me chills.
The robotic world of Tik tok (social media)..the wait for it, the reaction on the reaction video and commentary at the end video..the random gaming video over an actual important message video and my fav the pointless pointing videos. This will not fix the silly world of tik toks and reels, but makes me feel better....we are not alone. Thanks Ryan George.
Apparently the only reason Vine failed is because a communist country did not fund the product and then export it globally as a psyop to make the western world more easily manipulated.
Hmmm. Clever girl.
Instagram Reels can be like this, I’ve seen accounts with videos of people just staring at the camera and there’s some meme or news headline plastered over their heads, like who watches these videos??
This video is great. It gets the problems and the pointless videos totally on point. I thought back then, that having everyone making content will increase the quality. But it didn't happen. In the end people watch shit, like a person fake laughing and agreeing to a video they didn't make. And it gets millions of views. It's not just Tik Tok. UA-cam Shorts and Instagram are basically the same now. I hope one day we get back to what social media was all about: Connecting with your friends and share your experiences. Now it's just flexing and trash content.
The "reaction-ception" trend on YT where people basically just spout inanities while replaying an actual creator's carefully-put-together video (or reacting to a reaction vid, & so on & so on...) seems like another symptom of this problem? Ditto the many clip aggregator channels...
There ARE plenty of legitimate commentators who do credit original posters and add a lot of extra information or thoughtful commentary to supplement the original work! But there also seem to be a lot of pointless freeloaders 🙁 Just clogs up the site & makes it even harder for true creatives to get their content in front of interested eyeballs...?
Those videos aren't pointless. There's literally someone pointing IN THE VIDEO.
Sorry, I'll let myself out...
Except this content. This stuff is good
@@anna_in_aotearoa3166 reaction videos on youtube have existed far longer than TikTok itself, the difference is people usually have something to add.
@@DameOfDiamonds Yes, I don't think it's a specifically TikTok-related phenomenon? And definitely nothing against those who add a lot of genuine value in their reaction vids! I've just seen an awful lot popping up lately who don't do so, and who really seem to be just unethically piggybacking off hard-working creators' content.
Somehow I've watched this video like 10 times and only now got my brain to see Ryan's hand and everything else from the Ryan pov that isn't the clip. There's tons of detail that your brain just filters out. That's actually like a really well done pov shot such that your brain doesn't even notice it and totally suspends disbelief that it's real.
I don't think I'll ever use opera, but Ryan, I went through the whole ad because you deserve that and this video deserves that as well. Kudos to you!!

Pitch meetings is clever, sarcastic logic though. The comedy in some ways improves critical thinking skills.
I like that Ryan employs so many people. It must be hard on the budget but still must be worth it .
One of the funniest things I've ever watched in my life. Almost crashed the car with laughter. Bravo.
The "wait for it" part is so they can monetize it. It has to be over a certain time to be monetized. So you just stretch out a tiny bit of content that way.
Great video, Ryan, I've got to get to the hospital in a minute to see the birth of my first child but I just wanted to take a minute to jump on here and say, I'm from Ohio and we really do love eggs but maybe not as much as you portray here in your video and.... now I'm being told that it's been 3 hours since I started watching UA-cam to pass the time while I was on the toilet, and I've missed the birth of my son.

The part with the video game footage is exceptionally true. I think it's due to the fact that it keeps you stimulated whilst watching the video, therefore increasing watch time. What's ironic is that having to keep the viewer stimulated is due in part to short attention spans; a symptom caused by social media itself.

This comment though
I don't feel the same way people point. Think about it. If a waiter shows you the dessert menu on a tray and you want the triple chocolate cake and somebody points at a berry crumble as to what they want, do you change your mind to ordering the berry crumble? That is how weak, undecided minds work, not strong ones. You might want to try a nibble of their dish, but just so you can confirm how dumb they were for ordering it and you can gloat over the superiority of your delish chocolate, and you shake your head no laughing at that first dry, gritty, sour fruity bite, knowing they were a fool for ordering a berry crumble.
