EvilMatt666 ™ the first one the people weren’t REALLY copying the movie, more like skitching I think is the name. You hold on cars for speed and let go
When it comes to some very young kids, I can understand how they would have trouble what is real. 5 yrs old. But once you're a teen, you should know better.
Who’s to say it wouldn’t have happened in another vehicle :/ this kid obviously felt a huge adrenaline rush after the movie shit I know I’m guilty of wanting to and doing really stupid things in cars to which I had no idea how stupid it was at the time. It kinda sucks saying this but he was just either a really bad driver or really unlucky.
Unless he sued the studios, the videos doesn't says that he blamed the film, sounds like he just regrets a decision that could've changed the outcome like any father would.
Same. Such a sad story... But most of us grow out of the make believe phase around age 10-12. Apparently that wasn't the case for the rest of the people in this video. -.-
When my brother was 6 he went out on the back deck, tied a rope around his belly and then to the deck and jumped off trying to swing like spiderman. The rope slipped up around his neck with his arms caught above him. If my mom had not been coming around the back of the house at that very moment he would have hung himself. But even at that young of an age he knew you at least needed something to hang on to. It is so heart wrenching that this little boy lost his life because of the fact he loved the comic book hero so much. I think that in that way it touches me more because he wasn't being "Stupid" like most of the older people on this list, he was just being loving.
The "Back to the Future" reference didn't go the way that I wished it had. I'd rather the narrator have said, "A group of teens built a time machine, traveled back 34 years, but forgot to build a time and _space_ machine. As a result, the teens went back in time, only to find that the planet was hundreds of thousands of miles away, and the died, floating in space." In their defense, the Back-to-the-Future movie didn't say not to try it at home.
Skateboarders grabbing on the back of cars, and is called skitching, it has been done since skating has started. Those kids werent necessarily re creating a movie scene, and were probably just skitching for speed.
I used to grab the back of cars while skateboarding..I originally saw Marty Mcfly do it in Back to the Future..I did it for a while until one car went to fast and took a nasty tumble.Once a car speeds up it gets harder to keep balance.But u cant blame a movie.Kids do stupid crap sometimes..
@Hal Jordan While you are technically right, for the most part "last words" are usually the stuff they say BEFORE shit hits the fan. Like, "I can totally get my ball and jump back over the fence before that big ass dog comes out from the backyard" is considered a person's last words. Not the following, "OH FUCK! FUUUUUCK! OH GOD THAT HURTS!! AAAHHHHHH!!! What are you doing just standing there!?! Help me get this thing off my leg!! Hurry u- OH SHIIIIIT! IT'S TEETH ARE HITTING MY BONES!! PLEASE! *PLEEEEEEEAAASSE!!!

@cabal when i would slap my friends in the neck i would say OVERKILL then i would make a blade sound effect going into its holster or whatever it's called
Neither. No one is actually stupid enough to truly think that a movie can be responsible for an individual's actions. It's the individual's fault for doing something so idiotic.
It is one of two states that have open police reports which is why you hear about them in the news all the time. If police were investigating something crazy in my state or someone got arrested for something crazy you couldn't just look up.the report like in FL resulting in "Florida man" where people thing that there are just way more crazy meth heads there.
This is crazy. At 1:45 in the video It says that a 15 year old named Steven Paul Rowin died in 2002 in Albuquerque New Mexico . I was a 15 in 2002 my middle name is Paul and I spent a lot of time in Albuquerque during that year . Holy fuck . I’m dead bro.
I Know. The penis of the nation is ALWAYS getting into trouble. Writing checks you have to cash later- "whaddya mean, pregnant ?! You didn't mention you're married to a ms-13 shot caller !? Jesus! Wait, THAT'S HIS NAME?!" No, just kidding, I love Florida, and it's many state birds. Wait, those arent birds, they're mosquitoes !! Run !
lol it wasn't even necessary to spoil Man on Fire's twist in order to mention the scene where Denzel's character attempts to shoot himself, that's just incompetent
I remember that controversy about the scene in the program. My parents even had a talk with me and I said "why would I lay in the road? I might get hit by a car." Most people don't do stunts from movies. Also if the person from the movie died, don't imitate the story.
Natural selection of boys. Because even the pathologist says: "You don't see young women doing stuff like this." (holding onto a mattress on a car roof by lying on it, for example...over going to buy rope...)
@@PippyPopsSelfHarmMonica Maybe consider something like playing live music. It's easy to learn when you're young and the same high or probably better than things like motorcycles (I had 3) or alcohol/drugs (I'm old, did that, too, lol) Those other things you can't necessarily control, and death especially at a young age isn't worth it. Jmo
They take the easy way out of parenting by letting society raise their kids and then when something tragic happens they blame everyone but themselves. The only thing that really bothers me is when stupid people end up seriously hurting or killing innocent people, that's why when I hear of idiots killing themselves I find relief in it because I can only think of the people/families that they don't have a chance at hurting.
@@dsandoval9396 thank you so much for for typing out what I wanted to say but didn't have enough time lol..... But it's so true tho! I looked at so many comments but not one said something about the parents.
Only two of these were inspired by the movies. Fast did't invent drag racing. It didn't even make its first appearance in Lucas's 1973 American Graffiti. Drag racing has been a huge part of the American underground for years and years. A child climbs out of his window to go some place he was forbidden to go. That's never been done before Spider Man right? Students hanging onto cars while riding a skateboard or sliding on ice? That stunt has many names. In my childhood it was called hooky bobbing. If children and young adults were really that stupid, none of them wold have ever lived beyond the 1st Road Runner cartoon. The bigger danger is the social media challenges. This is where children and young adults get to watch people from their own age group doing stupid things and survive. If they can do it, so can I.
yeah for some reason every year SOMEBODY MAKES A CHALLENGE THAT HAS A CHANCE OIF KILLING YOU (ex: the tide pod challenge, the bird box challenge, etc etc)
hooky bobbing is called bumper shining where i am from and i agree peer pressure or just the idea to fit in is what the real issue is. parents get a lot of flack about not informing their children about safety but being a child so many years ago i did stupid things that could have lead me in situations as these. we just need to do our due diligence in life and look out for one another because not everyone knows the repercussions of their actions to either them or the people who love them
@@levmyshkin8366 You're right there. I was turned-off of that at an early age. My step father, a deputy sheriff, came home and bragged about what he was doing on the job. Two cars were drag racing on state street. One car got into an accident and ejected someone from the car. The body was the caught under another vehicle and dragged. They found the guy's nose on the railroad tracks and the trail wasn't something that could be hidden from the public. Sorry, it's a sickening story. I had nightmares for a couple of weeks. Thank god the marriage didn't last. That man was crazy.
I once tried to reenact a scene from a movie where a person lays down in the middle of the street during thick fog! I was 5-6 years old & VERY ignorant!!! I even have to admit how stupid I was for doing that! I almost got ran over, ALMOST.....
@@Jmagee2113 - I actually did lay down on the street for about 15 seconds, & almost got ran over by a van! Stupid is, as stupid does! Remember, I was only like 5-6 years old. And too this day, I feel like an idiot for doing that as a child.
When I hear some of these I think “well frankly the fact they made to that age is a win”. No hate to the dead but come ...you can’t blame movies for stupid judgment.
I see all these comments talking about these people being stupid and need to realize that these are movies. What you all don't understand is kids imaginations run wild. Even teenagers. In the example of Spider Man it's a way for them to feel free and live another life in a way. I know when I was a kid I used to act out being Wolverine cause I thought he was super cool. Rein-acting scenes like those make us feel like the heroes and make us feel in a way special as they are treated in the films.
Lol... that isnt a plausible excuse to risk your own life and the life OF OTHERS. I get that they what your saying but as human beings, common sense should come natural to us and this common sense that is benevolently given to us by evulotion should be used to discern whats Real and What is FICTIONAL. I'll understand if the people who commited these are 5 or something but most of people mentioned are teens and adults that should already have proper judgement. I am 15 currently and I know better than repeat their actions.
I'm 50 and here is a short list of things we did as kids growing up in the 70s and 80s: Drag race, do stunts/tricks on skateboards, jump off high bridges into creeks, jump off buildings with home-made parachutes, "stunts" in shopping carts, get towed by vehicles while on bikes, skateboards and rollerblades/skates, "airsoft" with bb and pellet guns, snowball fights with ice-balls... we got hurt, parents beat our butts and grounded us, then, when healed up and no longer grounded, we'd go out and do the same crap, never blaming anyone but ourselves for our dumb-assery.
Fwiw, that skateboard trick was called skitching. And it’s shown in earlier films because dumb kids were doing it in the early skateboarding days. It started in the 70s. I know this because I was an early skater, and by the time gleaming the cube came out in 89 it was the early version of the dab. Hollywood catches up with a dumb fad way past when the people who innovate it realize it’s dumb and move on.
For Back to the Future, I honestly thought you were gonna say someone tried to go 88 mph in a Delorean excepting to go back in time but they just crashed, or fell off a cliff or something.
About the film "Into the Wild," there have been a bunch of people who've made the trek out to the bus where Chris died. And there have been several who've died in the same river he was trapped by. Seems like they would've been better examples for this video since it's only speculation that the one kid they reported on was imitating that movie. Edit: it's become such a problem many locals now refuse to give directions to tourists.
These deaths, as well as those trying to imitate McCandless' journey are tragic. State & federal resources near the bus site spent extensive saving or searching for people. Their poor decisions show that they don't really understand the facts about his death. McCandless tried to leave but couldn't leave because the small stream he used to reach his encampment was too deep for him to cross. They are romanticizing his sad & very painful death. The bus was airlifted from the site. It is now at The Museum Of The North.
And...he was only 5. Sometimes I think these UA-cam & other sites make up stories for entertainment. The Superman story:"A random little boy, 5 yrs. old climbs out of his window cuz he was upset....." In the States, how does anyone know all those specifics?
People talk about the new Joker movie being in fear of copycats while there are people who get themselfs killed, recreating scenes from other movies..... Wtf
In the very first spiderman movie with Nicolas Hammton ( 1979 ) a young boy tryed to climb out of his bedroom window just like spiderman did in the movie but he fell to his death instead.
What gets me about this whole thing.. It clearly shows how EXTREMELY naive people can be so heavily influenced by what they see on a TV screen. So much so, that they would risk even the insanely high chance of losing their own lives as a result. It’s not brave, it’s not smart, it doesn’t make you Harry Houdini.. It’s just plain stupid and those who’ve died as a result of trying to imitate and copy the things they see, should be a lesson to those even contemplating doing the same thing. It’s that old saying of “You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes”.
Didn't think it possible kids could be dumber than they were in the 1980s. I was so wrong, the disconnect with reality is palpable with the current generation
I'm glad to see everyone in the comments agreeing with this, but I wish other's would understand this as well. Every single death that was featured in this video is either the fault of the parents, or the victim itself. I love the matrix, that doesn't mean I'm going to attempt to dodge bullets.
most people have the common sense to not imitate movies (movies aren't real folks!) but for the kids who died, they were just a product of bad parenting... and you know I'm right since I doubt there is proof that any of their parents bothered explaining to them that movies are fake and shouldn't be imitated.
It’s so sad these people lost their lives cause they wanted to recreate stuff from tv. People really need to learn the difference between fiction and reality. I hope their families are okay
being an experienced survivalist myself....I hated both the book and movie. I can't say why. the whole story just pissed me off. I do feel for the guys knowing that both of these were real people. but the story angered me. I have no idea why.
I used to live in riddle Oregon and i remember my dad talking about it and i tried living outside my house (i was 5 or 6 so i just did a little picnic and slept on my porch)
I recall being three years old, and getting a lengthy explanation on the difference between ‘The real’ and Make Believe’. Apparently it took. I never felt compelled to recreate a film scene and I’m so far, not dead
Having worked for Santa Cruz Ambulance Company I can tell you that the railroad trestle that goes over the estuary in Portola (a small berg outside of Santa Cruz), was found by teen agers thinking they could 'recreate' the railroad scene from the movie. When I was working there for 4 years, each summer there was accidents at the scene of the 'drop'. If the estuary is full, the worst that happened were sprains to wrists, and arms. On year a Canadian visitor ended up with Cerebral 4-5 rupture because the estuary has tide fluctuations. Don't do it. Please.
Everyone of these incidents were done before the movies came out. That's why the movies were popular. People see it and say, "I've done that, did that, know a guy that did that, my dad did it"
That's unfair and this comes from an actor...We sell the idea of skills most of the time, but it's in special effects, editing, stunt doubles, etc that really make it seem like the impossible is possible.
Okay, so I shouldn't be bothered but I am. McCandless didn't eat the wrong plant. The book goes into the actual death. The plants he stored in plastic bags and the wet weather before caused condensation and a mold to grow in the bags. When he ate the plants, he ingested the mold and it caused his cells to be unable to perform cellular respiration, causing him to essentially starve to death no matter how much he ate.
No people will do stupid shit that gets you killed. If you do something with that possible outcome and die it's called natural selection. Idiots will kill themselves off
Why take away someone else's joy because others are influential dumbasses. With or without entertainment these people would have done it anyway. Either by seeing it on tv or reading it in a book or article they still would have done it.
@@superultragiggachigga thats why we need to ban ALL forms! Just people sitting around. But not talking to each other because they might influence someone with their words. Its the only safe way!
No. It’s not the movies fault. Everyone must take responsibility for their own actions. No one put a gun to their heads and forces them to do it. Movies are movies and that’s something every sane person should be able to understand.
I remember back in 1999 my Son's friend who was 9 years old, Daniel - he passed away holding on to his Uncle's truck doing that same stunt. It was a horrible tragedy and my Son Julien was only six years old. A few years later, when Julien turned 13 - he took his own life due to a nasty Cyber bulling incident... I remembered Daniel and I didn't know what to say to his Mother at the time - now I know, there's really nothing you CAN say, just be there if you need them... R. I. P. Julien and Daniel... 😢
For some reason I thought the title meant "actors who had died recreating these scenes in movie remakes"

@cabal when i would slap my friends in the neck i would say OVERKILL then i would make a blade sound effect going into its holster or whatever it's called
sounds like what my brother did all over my childhood -__- that's pretty hurts tho. especially when a kid hit you.
I am 21 seconds in but before I continue further with this video... Why do y'all have so many ads for a 10 minutes video?
My question exactly, although I didn't get a single ad.
That's why you get adblocker! I haven't dealt with a single ad on UA-cam in 5 years, it's great.

Darwin Awards: the Documentary.
Sociopaths sure do love their Darwin awards.
If someone attempts to recreate the stunts mentioned in this UA-cam video, who get's blamed? The original movie? Or this video?
Asking for a friend.
The person attempting these stunts gets blamed. They chose to do the stunt, knowing it was unsafe. Hope that cleared it up.
LOL
Neither. No one is actually stupid enough to truly think that a movie can be responsible for an individual's actions. It's the individual's fault for doing something so idiotic.

Into the wild was based on a very true story. Its crazy to think that someone LITERALLY used it as an example on how to be..
When young children don't know the difference between real life and the movies it's a parental failure, noting else.
You can see this in lending a very powerful car (Corvette) to someone stupid enough to go recreate a MOVIE...
“In Florida” is mentioned a lot of times on this video...
Honestly doesn't surprise me. Florida is a... unique place.
It is one of two states that have open police reports which is why you hear about them in the news all the time. If police were investigating something crazy in my state or someone got arrested for something crazy you couldn't just look up.the report like in FL resulting in "Florida man" where people thing that there are just way more crazy meth heads there.
@@Vernal_Sky Florida is a irl Gta online server
Florida man!
"Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."
This is crazy. At 1:45 in the video It says that a 15 year old named Steven Paul Rowin died in 2002 in Albuquerque New Mexico . I was a 15 in 2002 my middle name is Paul and I spent a lot of time in Albuquerque during that year . Holy fuck . I’m dead bro.
Sorry to hear of your passing?

lol it wasn't even necessary to spoil Man on Fire's twist in order to mention the scene where Denzel's character attempts to shoot himself, that's just incompetent
I remember that controversy about the scene in the program. My parents even had a talk with me and I said "why would I lay in the road? I might get hit by a car." Most people don't do stunts from movies. Also if the person from the movie died, don't imitate the story.
Unfortunately one of the shortcomings of youth is a tendency towards bad judgement 🤦♂️
Natural selection of boys.
Because even the pathologist says: "You don't see young women doing stuff like this." (holding onto a mattress on a car roof by lying on it, for example...over going to buy rope...)
Parents could have taught them right but youth dont listen
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 boys usually crave adventure. I know I sure do.
@@PippyPopsSelfHarmMonica Maybe consider something like playing live music. It's easy to learn when you're young and the same high or probably better than things like motorcycles (I had 3) or alcohol/drugs (I'm old, did that, too, lol)
Those other things you can't necessarily control, and death especially at a young age isn't worth it. Jmo
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 Hello again
Bumper locking, Street racing and doing dumbass stunts were definitely not invented by movies
im sorry but if youre impressionable enough that a movie literally kills you then maybe you shouldnt be going to movies, stay home.
They shouldn't be doing anything
1:42 Him: “..... when he attempted to hold on to a moving truck” Me: wtf am I watching
The sad thing is when your young you think your invinceable and that these things only happen to someone else!
Man On Fire is a great movie. One of Denzel's best in my opinion.
I agree was an awesome movie
Absolutely mate one of his greatest films " I wish I wish you had more time " I do but you don't still gives me chills
disagree, half the movie is him playing with an annoying little girl

I once saw an animated movie and sprained my hand trying to make myself a drawing.
sad to hear about so many young people who can't correlate between real life and fiction
This video should be titled "People Who Died In Ways That Could Kind Of Maybe Vaguely Be Somewhat Similar To Movie Scenes"
Why don't we look at the parents.... Who let them watch these movies and not talk about how ITS A MOVIE NOT REAL LIFE! ALWAYS SHIFTING THE BLAME
They take the easy way out of parenting by letting society raise their kids and then when something tragic happens they blame everyone but themselves.
The only thing that really bothers me is when stupid people end up seriously hurting or killing innocent people, that's why when I hear of idiots killing themselves I find relief in it because I can only think of the people/families that they don't have a chance at hurting.
@@dsandoval9396 thank you so much for for typing out what I wanted to say but didn't have enough time lol..... But it's so true tho! I looked at so many comments but not one said something about the parents.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. People are so easily brainwashed into to thinking fantasy is reality.
Only two of these were inspired by the movies. Fast did't invent drag racing. It didn't even make its first appearance in Lucas's 1973 American Graffiti. Drag racing has been a huge part of the American underground for years and years. A child climbs out of his window to go some place he was forbidden to go. That's never been done before Spider Man right? Students hanging onto cars while riding a skateboard or sliding on ice? That stunt has many names. In my childhood it was called hooky bobbing. If children and young adults were really that stupid, none of them wold have ever lived beyond the 1st Road Runner cartoon. The bigger danger is the social media challenges. This is where children and young adults get to watch people from their own age group doing stupid things and survive. If they can do it, so can I.
yeah for some reason every year SOMEBODY MAKES A CHALLENGE THAT HAS A CHANCE OIF KILLING YOU (ex: the tide pod challenge, the bird box challenge, etc etc)
The video seems mostly coincidental, but the drag race one has more relevance, seeing as the young man had the race coming back after seeing the film.
hooky bobbing is called bumper shining where i am from and i agree peer pressure or just the idea to fit in is what the real issue is. parents get a lot of flack about not informing their children about safety but being a child so many years ago i did stupid things that could have lead me in situations as these. we just need to do our due diligence in life and look out for one another because not everyone knows the repercussions of their actions to either them or the people who love them
@@levmyshkin8366 You're right there. I was turned-off of that at an early age. My step father, a deputy sheriff, came home and bragged about what he was doing on the job. Two cars were drag racing on state street. One car got into an accident and ejected someone from the car. The body was the caught under another vehicle and dragged. They found the guy's nose on the railroad tracks and the trail wasn't something that could be hidden from the public. Sorry, it's a sickening story. I had nightmares for a couple of weeks. Thank god the marriage didn't last. That man was crazy.
It'll teach you not to flunk geometry. lol

No camping experience... dies 1000 ft from road and car. That's Darwinism.

He killed himself. Committed suicide. He intentionally died 1000 ft from his car. No Darwinisim there.
To be honest I thought this about the original Into the Wild guy too.
Amazing how many teens actually reach adulthood.

I once tried to reenact a scene from a movie where a person lays down in the middle of the street during thick fog! I was 5-6 years old & VERY ignorant!!! I even have to admit how stupid I was for doing that! I almost got ran over, ALMOST.....
Kat Alday i am so happy that you didn’t!
@@Jmagee2113 - I actually did lay down on the street for about 15 seconds, & almost got ran over by a van! Stupid is, as stupid does! Remember, I was only like 5-6 years old. And too this day, I feel like an idiot for doing that as a child.
Kat Alday oh I wasn’t doubting you I mean I am glad you didn’t get run over! The world would be a bit duller if you had been
did you have a complete lapse of "a functioning brain " or did you get into mommies medicine cabinet?
When I hear some of these I think “well frankly the fact they made to that age is a win”. No hate to the dead but come ...you can’t blame movies for stupid judgment.
I see all these comments talking about these people being stupid and need to realize that these are movies. What you all don't understand is kids imaginations run wild. Even teenagers. In the example of Spider Man it's a way for them to feel free and live another life in a way. I know when I was a kid I used to act out being Wolverine cause I thought he was super cool. Rein-acting scenes like those make us feel like the heroes and make us feel in a way special as they are treated in the films.
Lol... that isnt a plausible excuse to risk your own life and the life OF OTHERS. I get that they what your saying but as human beings, common sense should come natural to us and this common sense that is benevolently given to us by evulotion should be used to discern whats Real and What is FICTIONAL. I'll understand if the people who commited these are 5 or something but most of people mentioned are teens and adults that should already have proper judgement. I am 15 currently and I know better than repeat their actions.
I'm 50 and here is a short list of things we did as kids growing up in the 70s and 80s: Drag race, do stunts/tricks on skateboards, jump off high bridges into creeks, jump off buildings with home-made parachutes, "stunts" in shopping carts, get towed by vehicles while on bikes, skateboards and rollerblades/skates, "airsoft" with bb and pellet guns, snowball fights with ice-balls... we got hurt, parents beat our butts and grounded us, then, when healed up and no longer grounded, we'd go out and do the same crap, never blaming anyone but ourselves for our dumb-assery.
Skitching isn't from back to the Future it's something skaters have done since skateboarding started, shit just happens sometimes
The removing crates form the board is actually how skateboards we’re evented
Fwiw, that skateboard trick was called skitching. And it’s shown in earlier films because dumb kids were doing it in the early skateboarding days. It started in the 70s. I know this because I was an early skater, and by the time gleaming the cube came out in 89 it was the early version of the dab. Hollywood catches up with a dumb fad way past when the people who innovate it realize it’s dumb and move on.
I consider all of it just good old fashioned,... NATURAL SELECTION!
For Back to the Future, I honestly thought you were gonna say someone tried to go 88 mph in a Delorean excepting to go back in time but they just crashed, or fell off a cliff or something.
That was my initial thought, too.
About the film "Into the Wild," there have been a bunch of people who've made the trek out to the bus where Chris died. And there have been several who've died in the same river he was trapped by. Seems like they would've been better examples for this video since it's only speculation that the one kid they reported on was imitating that movie.
Edit: it's become such a problem many locals now refuse to give directions to tourists.
These deaths, as well as those trying to imitate McCandless' journey are tragic. State & federal resources near the bus site spent extensive saving or searching for people. Their poor decisions show that they don't really understand the facts about his death. McCandless tried to leave but couldn't leave because the small stream he used to reach his encampment was too deep for him to cross. They are romanticizing his sad & very painful death. The bus was airlifted from the site. It is now at The Museum Of The North.
If you're going to scale the walls of a building, start from the ground
So you won't fall to your death sheesh
Guess he didn't get the memo
*5 years old*
Lmfao
And...he was only 5. Sometimes I think these UA-cam & other sites make up stories for entertainment. The Superman story:"A random little boy, 5 yrs. old climbs out of his window cuz he was upset....." In the States, how does anyone know all those specifics?
People talk about the new Joker movie being in fear of copycats while there are people who get themselfs killed, recreating scenes from other movies..... Wtf
I know. I fell doing the joker stair dance. It's my ghost floating around writing this. Wooooooooo.
In the very first spiderman movie with Nicolas Hammton ( 1979 ) a young boy tryed to climb out of his bedroom window just like spiderman did in the movie but he fell to his death instead.
I don't feel bad for the people who died but their families and friends
What gets me about this whole thing.. It clearly shows how EXTREMELY naive people can be so heavily influenced by what they see on a TV screen. So much so, that they would risk even the insanely high chance of losing their own lives as a result.
It’s not brave, it’s not smart, it doesn’t make you Harry Houdini.. It’s just plain stupid and those who’ve died as a result of trying to imitate and copy the things they see, should be a lesson to those even contemplating doing the same thing.
It’s that old saying of “You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes”.
Every movie should come with a disclaimer "Listen this is not reality! Get it?"
Didn't think it possible kids could be dumber than they were in the 1980s. I was so wrong, the disconnect with reality is palpable with the current generation
I feel bad for the people, they obviously didn't want to die or get hurt.
There retards
@@captain8960 oh the irony.... they are*
Except for the guy imitating Into The Wild
@@captain8960 whoosh
I'm glad to see everyone in the comments agreeing with this, but I wish other's would understand this as well. Every single death that was featured in this video is either the fault of the parents, or the victim itself. I love the matrix, that doesn't mean I'm going to attempt to dodge bullets.
most people have the common sense to not imitate movies (movies aren't real folks!)
but for the kids who died, they were just a product of bad parenting...
and you know I'm right since I doubt there is proof that any of their parents bothered explaining to them that movies are fake and shouldn't be imitated.
What other movie stunts do you think should be at the top of a "do not attempt this at home" list?
The Cool Hand Luke boiled egg eating contest
Jim Carey crawling out of a hippopotamus’s rectum . 👉🏼
The laying in the street scene is on the original 1993 print laserdisc version of The Program.
I remember hearing about that accident too.

It’s so sad these people lost their lives cause they wanted to recreate stuff from tv. People really need to learn the difference between fiction and reality. I hope their families are okay
My Dad always said, "Monkey see Monkey Do". I will never forget that.. God Bless him..
Well natural selection
Into the wild was a good movie and book I just read it this year and saw the movie as well
being an experienced survivalist myself....I hated both the book and movie. I can't say why. the whole story just pissed me off. I do feel for the guys knowing that both of these were real people. but the story angered me. I have no idea why.
I used to live in riddle Oregon and i remember my dad talking about it and i tried living outside my house (i was 5 or 6 so i just did a little picnic and slept on my porch)
I recall being three years old, and getting a lengthy explanation on the difference between ‘The real’ and Make Believe’. Apparently it took. I never felt compelled to recreate a film scene and I’m so far, not dead
People should stop blaming their stupidity on movies and games.
Only two of these stories were legit what the title claims
So you are blaming movies for things that people do all the time?? Sounds more like families are just trying to find ways of coping....
I don't recall anything about blaming movies.....Just because people may re-create something, it doesn't mean it's being blamed....

Having worked for Santa Cruz Ambulance Company I can tell you that the railroad trestle that goes over the estuary in Portola (a small berg outside of Santa Cruz), was found by teen agers thinking they could 'recreate' the railroad scene from the movie. When I was working there for 4 years, each summer there was accidents at the scene of the 'drop'. If the estuary is full, the worst that happened were sprains to wrists, and arms. On year a Canadian visitor ended up with Cerebral 4-5 rupture because the estuary has tide fluctuations. Don't do it. Please.
Everyone of these incidents were done before the movies came out. That's why the movies were popular. People see it and say, "I've done that, did that, know a guy that did that, my dad did it"
Brings life to the meaning you just can't fix stupid
Title should've been "Idiots trying to impersonate actual famous people with talent".
But.... they're movies. The actors aren't actually doing the thing, either. Do we need to worry about you, too?
@@princesspattycakeswm haha no but it IS weird people don't know the difference between practical and CGI.
Christopher Mccandless wasn't a celebrity.
That's unfair and this comes from an actor...We sell the idea of skills most of the time, but it's in special effects, editing, stunt doubles, etc that really make it seem like the impossible is possible.
The somber music and how the narrator keeps saying how sad it is meanwhile all these people killed themselves in stupid and borderline hilarious ways.
Okay, so I shouldn't be bothered but I am. McCandless didn't eat the wrong plant. The book goes into the actual death. The plants he stored in plastic bags and the wet weather before caused condensation and a mold to grow in the bags. When he ate the plants, he ingested the mold and it caused his cells to be unable to perform cellular respiration, causing him to essentially starve to death no matter how much he ate.
Some of you are like “good old natural selection” or “they deserved it for not knowing better” as if some of these deaths weren’t kids
"A group of teenagers WAS recreating"
Didn't dude from fast furious die trying to be fast n furious?
*We need to ban all forms of entertainment so people arent influenced by it!*
No people will do stupid shit that gets you killed. If you do something with that possible outcome and die it's called natural selection. Idiots will kill themselves off
Why take away someone else's joy because others are influential dumbasses. With or without entertainment these people would have done it anyway. Either by seeing it on tv or reading it in a book or article they still would have done it.

No. It’s not the movies fault. Everyone must take responsibility for their own actions. No one put a gun to their heads and forces them to do it. Movies are movies and that’s something every sane person should be able to understand.
I remember back in 1999 my Son's friend who was 9 years old, Daniel - he passed away holding on to his Uncle's truck doing that same stunt. It was a horrible tragedy and my Son Julien was only six years old. A few years later, when Julien turned 13 - he took his own life due to a nasty Cyber bulling incident... I remembered Daniel and I didn't know what to say to his Mother at the time - now I know, there's really nothing you CAN say, just be there if you need them... R. I. P. Julien and Daniel... 😢
