I read something about a recent Candid Camera special on a cable network. Candid Camera knew how to do stuff like this right. Now all we're left with is all the crappy hidden camera stuff people now do on UA-cam.
This is reminiscent of the movie Airplane where Captain Ouver is paged to the white phone and he picks up the red phone and operator says no the white phone.
You guys need to put the "old faithful" bit on youtube, i cant find it anywhere online, one of the funniest practical jokes ive ever seen. The one where you guys have somebody run out and turning Old Faithful on in front of the spectators...
and some realized it was the same voice on each phone! "if you are gonna be on (on Candid Camera) we'll page you." lol this was quite funny, but it could be difficult if you thought there was an urgent call for you.
Devin Liddell-where is he now? "I lead TEAGUE's brand strategy offer, working collaboratively with clients such as Anheuser-Busch InBev, Boeing, Intel, JW Marriott, Microsoft, SC Johnson and Starbucks to create insight-driven brand strategies and consumer experiences. With more than a decade of experience in brand strategy and design, I've worked across a broad spectrum of industries: aerospace, higher education, software/technology, food and beverage, and retail; my past clients include Amazon, GE, Nordstrom, Seattle Symphony, and Viacom.

it means in a public place, like an airport or a hotel, that the people at the front desk are calling out an announcement with your name, to give you a message. usually it's about how someone else, a person you know, is trying to contact you. it's not something that really happens much now that cell phones exist lol. for example, if a loved one was in an airport, and you wanted to tell them something important, before cellphones you would have to call the airport and say "could you please page Mr. Smith and tell him this message"
I’d be so annoyed at this. People are tired from traveling, and don’t need to be running around looking for non existent phones. The only page we ever got at an airport was to inform us of a death, so I wouldn’t appreciate this. I’d be worried sick.
Well, that was part of our joke. On the other hand, it would be perfectly reasonable for an airport to have one operator handling multiple phone lines. -Peter
Cannot get enough of Candid camera.
There are days when I binge watch their shows.
You gotta love that classic dry Peter Funt delivery. Like the Candid Camera's version of Ben Stein. I miss this show.
True, no cell phones back then. But getting a page at an airport would be like being a parent getting a phone call at 2 in the morning.
These people were so polite, patient and good sports when they found out that they were being spoofed.
One of the better one's, traditional old fashioned humour.
Lmfao
This show brings back so many good memories.
"if you're gonna be on, we'll page you." LOL!!!!
everyone they featured were such good sports!!!
That was a very smart response by Peter! Instant comedy, not scripted.
lmfao. Why doesn't someone create a new Candid Camera TV show? I would LOVE to work for them. lol. This kind of humor is right up my alley.
How about you create one?
Yeah, I wish.
Isn't just for laughs gags kind of like candid camera? You could maybe work for them

I think just for laughs is based out of Canada. So unless I moved there and become a citizen of Canada I probably couldn't.
‘Bliss’ is a wonderful last name.

I wonder what year this was made. Everybody was so NICE!

So ODDD not seeing anyone on their cell phones. Nowadays 90% of the folks in this terminal would be nose down in their phones.
Neptune so odd that they didn't have cell phones back then huh
I was thinking the same thing... it makes me wonder about how much spare time they actually people had back then.
It was a different time indeed. Imagine a global airport page being the way you know someone's trying to get ahold of you. Crazy.
the walking i-dead
They had cell phone but only Yuppies and drug dealers had those.
Funniest thing ever! I couldn't stop laughing!
That guy @ 3:30 would be my reaction cause I would get fed up too lol
What good polite people.
I remember this one!
Imagine if they did the Airplane scene where the PA intercom announces....."No... the White Phone".
LoL! LOVE THIS!!
I'd have a nervous breakdown.
I know. Maybe they didn't show the people that got upset. I'd be one of them.
Those darn cellphones have spoiled everything these days. There's no need to page people like this now. :(
So you'd rather run around using nasty public phones than your own? lol kay
roachtoasties yeah how dare cellphones make things convenient!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Seek1878 :
well, you also get calls from telemarketers wherever you go now...24/7.
@@snoglydox I don't answer numbers I don't know lol. And back when I was young telemarketers called the home phone all the time, that was worse.
Same voice on each phone.
Mr laiddell is really eli manning
Same voice every phone, lol.
Yes, my voice, to be exact. And that was a big part of our joke. -Peter

All the unknowing 'victims' were so pleasant!

I'm so glad that I never got caught by them. Lol.
Americans are generally very polite
Black girl absolutely precious ♥️🤠🤣
It was just common courtesy.
You rang?
We’re going to have to put you on hold.
Good for them. I honestly don't think I would have handled it very well having my time wasted.

That was before cellphone.
What’s a page?

Don't they realize it's the same voice all the time.

Lol!!!
This is just annoying! Today if they did this there could be a tragedy!
This is mean!
Hmmm no white phones?! Is that airport racist?😂😂😂
The same guy talks to you on different phones... might be a clue it's a prank

No cell phones ...
This joke is a bit cruel. Flying is stressful enough to make believed that there might be a problem with your flight.

So, it is all fake.
Got it.
white people are awesome lol
Ain't queer but Mr. Liddell was incredibly gorgeous back then!! 6-13-2020
I think this joke is not funny
This type of meandering search for things that are hopelessly hidden happens to me enough for this to be unoriginal too.

No replies about how this was done in the movie "Airplane"?
Surely you can't be serious....
