We really need to stop calling these pranks because they're not. It's harassment, and sometimes even illegal.
💯 absolutely
100% even the emploee sho grabbed the guys shirt was clearly harassed into an outburst. He keeps saying things about delete the video, delete my name etc. they were clearly taunting him.
My thoughts exactly.
People have gotten hurt over this garbage. Notice the usual demographic of these "pranksters", young men who can easily look threatening if they are harassing someone.
@@howperfectlycurious1440 it doesn't matter. as long as someone is not touching you first, you are absolutely not allowed to put your hands on someone. I can be in your face, saying whatever i want, and you absolutely may not touch me. legally, employee is in the wrong.
Actually, anti-influencer policy in supermarket/department store/mall/any public place sounds like a great plan.
The only thing is that it would suck for vloggers
@@epicboy330maybe don't vlog that part of ur day then??? I personally prefer to not watch vlogs in mundane stores
@@hdskittlesyes!!! Personally i don’t want to unwillingly get recorded on the background of any random a$$ vloggers video
I think a simple "No filming or recording in-store without permission" is a simple policy most stores could employ. Only caveat would be if you were witness to crime
I think they would make an exception if there was a crime
as someone who worked for walmart twice, i promise you, seeing someone in the store all day is not strange. people, especially old people, do it all the time. not a single employee is going to give a crap lmfao
Tbh I think it depends, I've never worked in Walmart but I've worked in other stores and when someone is basically hanging out in the store but very obviously not looking at anything it raises red flags imo. It could be innocent but I would likely keep an eye on the person to be safe
@@devilishchrissy5033 Exactly this. I used to work at staples and for whatever reason we couldn't tell people who were there walking around for 4 hours that they need to buy something or leave, so id keep an eye on them and most of the time, if it wasn't an elderly person, they were stealing. Not always but a good portion of the time. Apparently pens are a hot thing to steal.
So id absolutely think something is up if 3 kids walked in and stayed there for x amount of hours while blatantly filming.
Oh it happens to me because I wander a lot when I'm at the supermarket, but it's always because I look at EVERYTHING, and I do at least two trips around. It's because I used to work at that (picking online purchases).
I always get worried that someone could think I'm being suspicious 😭 I'm just autistic but I don't say that haha
@@cata0rostikalove this comment! Made me feel so valid 🖤
Me and my dad had a ton of time to kill one night so we wandered around Walmart and ended up riding the scooter carts around. It was a 24 hour Walmart and we were there from maybe 2am to 8am and the employees didn't say a word to us. Maybe its because we were practically the only people there most of the time and weren't being a nuisance.
I have a firm belief that a prankster is just multiple entitled children in a trench coat.
Except children don't know any better and these grown adult men do... Entitled child? Fault of the parent. Adult a**hole? Their own fault.
@@0.-.0 Yeah, I can agree with that to a certain extent. Also nice username.
Multiple entitled children who haven’t been disciplined a day in their lives*
They are.

As someone who previously worked at Walmart, I'd like to complain about forts. I used to stock diapers and if there was a fort I couldn't stock them. If I fixed them I got in trouble for taking too long stocking my department. If I didn't fix them I'd get in trouble for not stocking them. Management didn't care if it was not my fault. We didn't need those types of costumers bothering us to make it suck working there but they made a workplace that was already bad, even worse. I met some nice customers but those types of people generally weren't asking them. Sorry for the rant, hope everyone is having a good day!
I still wonder if JSTU back then "faked" the fort videos and cleared it with the stores first, cause overall they seem to be very considerate to other people (as it should be if you make money with videos in public). Only downside, even if they did fake it, idiots like these still were created and are not considerate.
I totally get it, but I also took the opposite tack. Kick it down. I'm getting paid to restack anyway, but I'll gladly ruin your day.
@@urfaes6878Lmao
Working these customer service and stocking jobs should be mandatory tbh so many entitled people who have seem to have never worked a day in their lives are always being jerks for no reasons.
@@spOOkytimes 6 months of retail and 6 months in food service as your mandatory first year of employment. Would make the country (or the world!) a much better place.
Careful Jarvis, make a bingo card for these children's content creators and they might show up at your house.
That's only once he reacts enough and then sh- ...they get on twitter first...

Oh no
And of course, UA-cam will then take their side because, you know, sociopathy is on brand for them.
I have had always found it comforting for my anxiety that no one is gonna remember if you accidentally do something embarrassing in public. To have that source of comfort taken away in the last eight or so years where not only shoving a camera in strangers' faces is the norm but also if they show any reluctance to not want to participate in someone's prank video on a random Wednesday it is regarded by their millions of fans as "not playing ball" has certainly been an experience.
The employee clearly does not want to be recorded and still got her entire face posted on not only his channel but potentially on any channels commenting on it as well.
I know it's probably not that much comfort but just remember, in the very unlikely act you are put in that situation then the fans of their's that would have a negative opinion of you are not the people whose opinions you should care about in the least.

@@harlomints7727 "if all they know if your face" idk tho you heard of kiwi farms? if you are unlucky enough to be autistic and caught on camera there are a lot of people on the internet awful enough to go to great lengths to find you and make you suffer
Back in the olden times, Hank Green spent 15 hours inside a Target and vlogged it. iirc he mostly kept to himself and his "challenges" were just to keep himself entertained lol. So it IS possible to do a video like this without being a public nuisance, you've just got to put in... effort.
I would have been surprised if Hank Green _wasn't_ considerate of those around him.
I was just thinking about this as well
That video is a classic lmao, and how good it is while being respectful of the people around him just makes this video even more of an absolute embarrassment
as someone who sadly has no idea who Hank Green is, i'm assuming the "olden times" are from like 2012 lol

idk it stands out to me that the only people they're harassing are the elderly who are less likely to understand what's going on, and employees who have to play nice or risk losing their jobs. i understand they most likely went on a weekday where this is probably the main customerbase, but still says something to me how they didn't harass customers their own age or middle-aged/boomer. just picking on people more vulnerable than them and less likely to stand up for themselves
Because they know what will happen if they pick someone their own age. They just won't show it because they want us laughing with them not at them.
They know if they went after a middle aged man he probably wouldn't play along with their stupid game. It's always the elderly, employees, people who "love prank videos", or women. They're cowards.
@@Fluff_Noodles I read this as you saying that women are cowards
Honestly if you harass people who get paid like shit and push them over the edge whatever happens next is no ones fault but your own
I agree. I felt so bad for that guy, looks like he took a pretty rough fall on a hard floor. And, all he wanted was to not be in the fucking video. Like, that is so a reasonable request to make.
Also outside hire security at a lot of places generally are allowed to use physical force on someone. General employees are not but security organizations are permitted by law in some places to use force to detain someone or remove them from a property.
i was in line at michaels and the victim (of many) of a group of tween boys’ public pranks. they came in and started beating each other with pool noodles- we at first thought it was bullying and acted accordingly. then we noticed the camera. everyone quickly soured and it was quite heartwarming watching 20+ michaels customers yelling at them to get the fuck out
it just makes me nervous because if that video were to be posted or go viral, we would be the “karens” instead of people trying to go about their days
Stores need to put in better policies to protect their employees from people like this, who just constantly bother them when they're trying to do their job and making content from it, especially without their permission
We need to be more like Japan. Just no filming people allowed in stores by law
Consider that stores see their employees as tools to mine money from the customers and it makes sense that they don't protect them.
You basically have to lobby for laws to force companies to do anything good.
they won't, because they don't care about their employees and to them, the harassers are just paying customers/consumers that give them positive corporate numbers. having worked at a Walmart and a 7-11 where this type of shit happened literally every day, our managers didn't give a shit. they were too busy ordering in pizza and fried chicken and hanging out in the back
I know they CAN kick you out & you CAN get the video reported for using your face without permission. This is the kind of shit they can just call the cops on you over...
That's never going to happen because "tHe CuStOmEr Is AlWaYs RiGhT"
i can’t imagine picking up a package of paper towels to see a youtuber crouched behind them i couldn’t handle that
honestly thinking about that pisses me off so much. what if i hit my head on the shelf above me?😭
I’d quit right then and there lol
i would just sigh and pick a different brand
Honestly I think the "obviously he shouldn't have grabbed this guy" is giving the prankster too much leniency.
It's underplayed how dangerous this type of content is for a lot of people. I'm always scared to go out because I'm a victim of domestic violence and stalking, and being put in one of these videos could completely up-end the security I've built for myself. The story is the same for closeted trans people. They're always technically at risk of people talking too much or getting in contact with the wrong person, but put them in one of these videos and they can suddenly be recognized anywhere on the globe.
I can't imagine someone who was that upset over their name being in a video has no good reason for it.
How much are we willing to let "content creators" push people like this before the victims are allowed any retaliation whatsoever? Constantly harassing workers and putting them in legitimate danger. Something has to give at some point.
This!! I understand Jarvis was trying to go a more 'both sides are in the wrong' route but, again, lacking context. These people don't listen with words like "stop." and "no thank you." alone, and if there's no laws / regulations preventing influencers from harassing random people in public.. sometimes self-defense is absolutely necessary. some people are afraid of being recorded unknowingly, as you've said; for private reasons.. ranging from personal safety to unintentional outing. I'm an autistic person, I am more 'visibly' autistic. (I.E. stimming subconsciously, head jerking, face twitching..) so to have this EXTRA layer of socially-induced fear being some dorky 29-going-on-30 year old 'influencer' coming up to me and recording me for the world to see and to mock me is beyond frightening. Bigger companies and America itself REALLY need to crack down on this.
As for your experiences; I offer you my deepest and most sincere condolences for having to live in fear, not only for the possibility of someone you know and do NOT like and feel unsafe around bothering you in public, but ALSO influencers harassing you as well. I hope you've been recovering and live your life to the fullest.

As a person with anxiety, it's getting harder to convince myself that the chances of running into unreasonable people or adult children at the store are slim.
And now the unreasonable people and adult children are filming video. Yikes.
As someone who works at a grocery store, I assure you, it's really not as bad as you think. The internet just showcases them as if it's common occurrence.
The worst offenders are the homeless people tbh, a lot of people just want to get their groceries and get out like you
Wait what's wrong with homeless people??
@@galaxychill9578 many things:
- Theft
- They hang out in the restrooms for hours on end
- They shave/clean themselves/do drugs in the restroom (there have been complaints of people smoking crack in the stall)
- They drive customers away, whether out of smell, fear, or annoyance
Probably other things too I can't think of
This does not happen often and where you live, the particular supermarket you use, it will probably have never happened before or will ever happen in the future
@@galaxychill9578Theyre often drunk and pushy, those are probably the homeless people theyre talking about
I feel like people shouldn’t have to deal with stupid pranks just doing everyday things like wtf
yea like there should be some sort of law against making money off something like this
yeah and those annoying misogynist interviewers like id like to be in public without being filmed thanks
i wish you didnt remind me those guys existed lmao
Watching this during my lunch break at Target.
Filling a cart with things you don’t intend to buy is an awful way to prank someone. So much work has to be done to put that back, unless these boys decide to put those items back which I doubt
For real! When I worked at target there were so many nights we couldn't go home on time because we were having to put back people's abandoned and returned items.
oh my god twins I'm literally also watching this during my target lunch break ✌️
Not just those boys but any kid that they encouraged to fill up a cart and leave it for the employees to deal with. This is one of many reasons I refuse to work costumer service anymore.
right? i don't even like to put items back randomly on shelves like some ppl do, i'll walk my a&& all the way back lmao because i don't want someone to have to do extra work. its wild to me how ppl act, theyve clearly never really worked
Genuine question: Would pulling out your phone and playing copyrighted music do anything to prevent these people from being able to make money pranking people?
They would at least have to ditch the audio of that portion if you are close enough for their mic to pick up since I doubt they are doing multiple audio channels for recording.
They could try to dub over themselves again after, but it is a solid strat either way.
Probably not, realistically speaking.
The quality of the music in the final video which the copyright bots need to recognise would be affected by the file you're playing (MP3 isn't great), then your phone's speakers (which are probably not the best), then their microphone (probably a reasonably good microphone but the varying distance to your phone will affect the quality of the music picked up), plus it will have all the regular noise of them talking over it that will obfuscate the music.
You can try, and maybe it will make them remove that section. But I don't think it's likely to actually get picked up by copyright bots.
Don't some stores play music?
@@galaxychill9578 oh my god it's the anti-influencer technology 😂
@@galaxychill9578sure but there's different volumes.
currently watching this on my break while working a shift at walmart and i can assure you the word "survive" and "walmart" frequently go together in my vocabulary
🤝 fellow retail worker solidarity. we'll somehow get through it. maybe.
I cannot begin to describe the degree of laughter that consumed me when the one guy tried to do that snake impression. My guy has never seen or heard a snake in any form. I have never seen anything like it and it it will be impossible to reproduce organically. no joke that was intentionally written could make me laugh in the fashion which that collossal failure of a snake impression did. It was just catastrophically funny. 10/10
BRO SERIOUSLY WHAT WAS THAT 😂 HAS HE NEVER SEEN EVEN A CARTOON OF A SNAKE BEFORE
😂😂
I would've laughed, except... that area he was in? That was the backroom. You know, the area for employees only? Has a big ol' sign on the doors and caution colored stripes everywhere? He went back there into a restricted area and bothered the overworked and underpaid employees *on their breaks.* That is next-level not okay.
@@animeartist888 100% and I do not think what he was doing was funny in and of itself. Someone couldn't recreate that situation and get the same reaction because it's really not okay. What made me laugh was not their joke or charisma or even the situation but the raw ignorance of the person. Their stupidity and only their stupidity was what was funny. Because the dude genuinely thinks snakes go "oooo ooooo chi-chi-chi" and I could not help but laugh at that concept.
@@raysay1818Yeah I don't think he's familiar with even the concept of snakes, which makes it freaking hilarious to me. My boyfriend and I have snakes, and now we keep making those noises at each other when one of them is doing snake things. It's ridiculous.
Also because the assignment was not to sound like a snake. Bro could have done the worm or casually knocked things over and caused just as much of a scene if he was aware of what a snake is.
weird that they never pick on peers. they targeted exclusively old people and employees.
Yep they always go after vulnerable people
!!! This exactly! And for the most part women, too
Their peers would have recognized it for what it was and wouldn't have played along, I think.
@@aescatic i mean that's what bullies do lmao
Side note i HATE when men do “prank videos” where they pretend to vulgarly catcall women, saying things like “nice melons”, “nice rack” etc and then try to make them look stupid by having some other guy come up behind them with watermelons (for example). Literally makes my blood boil
Too bad
And the worst thing are their comment sections. I saw one where the guy walked past a group of young women and went "Ooooooouuuhhh, nice cake!" while CLEARLY looking at them, and one woman told him off, and then the other guy came with the cake. The comments were all like "LOL why were these girls even concerned when they had no butts to begin with!" and "At the end, they were probably mad that he wasn't talking about them"
I just thought "Them thinking that it was about them was the entire point of this stupid 'prank'"
and you know they're the first type to complain about women this or that like broo stfu lmao
Sound like ur so insecure and hate urself so much 😂

Dude’s “Stop Buying Onlyfans” shirt is also a massive red flag. That’s some Tate level idiocy. That’s the edgelord boys “there’s so much free porn” stance that is always the way in to shaming sex workers, and all women by extension. And that’s their own merch that they sell to their young followers.

@@dude30000it's way more likely to be consensual if you pay independent creators, so there's that...
@@dude30000 that's also true and i believe in banning porn completely for that reason. however, some people choose to buy from platforms like OF because they simply want to *mitigate* the risk of watching something that's free, which is way more likely to be unethical according to research. those type of people are likely oblivious to operations like Tate which take advantage of women on those platforms. i can't blame people for being ignorant🤷🏻♀️
Ah yes, a total ban on porn, I'm sure this would work flawlessly with absolutely no loopholes, people will just accept it and move on, never watching porn again. I mean, The Prohibition is a perfect example of how well total bans work!
I wonder if UA-cam could make some rules about recording and uploading people in public without permission. Like if they’re the focus of the video you must get permission. I feel like it wouldn’t be too difficult to implement and abide by, but I’m sure there’s perfectly acceptable channels that would be hurt by it as well. There probably isn’t a simple solution, maybe a combination UA-cam rules and laws would have to pass.
Actually something like that would have helped me. The ireland boys actually put my dad in one of their videos and got super petty when we asked them to blur his face at least. They were assholes
UA-cam won't even enforce rules they already have like doxxing, it would be nice as hell but I'm pessimistic and doubtful :/
UA-cam won’t do more than a slap on the wrist for sssniperwolf. You think they’d do something like this to prank channels who cover tons of their revenue?
I wonder if you could content claim seeing as it's you, then again good luck finding it, and not having it be abused
Just have a song ready to play at all time. 😂😂I mean the amount of people that come in to my store with a speaker on full blast. I don’t want to listen to your music please stop.
You lasted four times longer than I could during the "Dont React" challenge. Respect.
dpad :o
The accent section is physically painful to watch 😭 Jarvis is making the ultimate sacrifice for us by watching this content in full and that’s why it’s on the premium channel ✨
I love how these pranksters are always so self-absorbed that they think everyone is gonna be noticing them and watching their every move. Those employees have enough to focus on, they do not care about you or how long you're there as long as you're not causing trouble
Those last few words are the key- "As long as you're not causing trouble." Employees and other customers do not care how long you spend in the store. Employees just want you out in time to close up for the night. But if you're harassing people, wrecking the shelves to make forts, and riding the bikes down the aisles, you've become a problem. I assume that's the only reason they had those "challenges"- to make sure they wouldn't end in a tie when they all got shooed out for closing.
@@animeartist888 exactly, the employees in the video only started talking to them once they were actually interfering with their jobs. The youtubers knew they'd get no interesting content just by hanging around, so they started getting progressively more bothersome. Basically five year olds screaming for attention
These companies need to just have a no recording policy.
But obviously they don’t care about how much torment their workers go through so, unlikely.
Bingo lol.
it would be so entertaining to see these manchild influencers throw a fit if laws like that do get passed though
If not for their workers, shouldn't they at least do it for the customers?? I'm sure for some that would influence which stores they choose, right?
A lot of companies DO have no recording policies. The hard part is enforcing them. Not every company has their own security team just waiting around (in fact, most companies specifically do NOT have that) so you'd have to call the police every time this sort of thing happens, and... well, the cops don't tend to take these sorts of complaints seriously in a lot of places, so you're lucky if they even show up at all much less in time to catch the perpetrator.
They don't even need a policy. Just for LP to act on people being disruptive in the store. It kinda doesn't matter the reason. "This person is making it impossible for me to work/shop in peace."
Depending on the LP you have, they might actually nip it in the bud to save themselves headache. They can kick you out just on a feeling, trespass laws exist and do not require more than "I want them gone."
I do think ironing it out with clear policy is prudent. I just also think it's more likely to become policy if enough people make a stink of it for the right people. This kinda behavior falls under the umbrella of harassment. Youre not shopping, you're keeping other people from shopping, and distracting the people meant to help them. No store wants that. But sometimes you have to rattle their cages to make them realize that's what is happening, that it's hurting their potential business. The moment a Walmart sees you as a liability you are Audi 5000.
A good example of this McDonald's... they now have a policy against serving people who antagonize staff, it's right on the window. That came about only when drive thru harassment hit a fever pitch, and people across the board stopped tolerating it. It became something they couldn't ignore. Having a camera doesn't make it not harassment. That's a misdirection tactic... make it a debate about rights to filming when it's really about messing with people. If the camera wasn't there it'd still be wrong.
I really wish that some kind of legislation could be passed that prevents filing stranges in publuc especially minors
It's a double edged sword for sure. For the minority that uses filming maliciously, there's so many that have been saved by recording psychos.
It'd have to be nuanced, like the law of self defense.
@megabumbusta2746 That's so true it would have to be hyper specific, thus creating loopholes and also like by a case by case basis, which could lead to discrimination
It gets harder and harder to feel safe leaving the house
I have extreme social anxiety and it's already difficult to go anywhere, the thought of being harassed, filmed, and posted without consent is exceedingly overwhelming
Workers shouldn't have to deal with this, customers shouldn't have to deal with this, this kind of thing should really be policed more
I don't know why companies don't have policies against filming in their stores, they could make an exception for emergencies and stuff
I would certainly give more business to places if they were a safe haven from prank channels
Edit: I don't have the energy to respond, but it did end up happening a few weeks ago :'>
Thank you for the nice comments at least! I don't use social media anymore, and I'm doing my best to limit youtube usage, I try to only watch happier videos. I think these are good practices in general, it's better for your mental health for sure
FR though! I'm already a heavy introvert with shyness and social anxiety on top of that, so this is a constant, looming fear of mine every time I leave the house or go out in public. If I was involved in one of these online pranks, I could see it being the final straw that turns me into a full-blown hikikomori.
Idk how old you are but the solution would be to stop watching videos like these, because they give the impression that this was a super common occurence. It's not. I've never had that happen to me once and my friends and family did not either. Second thing to do is limiting your social media use. Who cares if some children talk shit about a video of you when you can't even see that they do. Obviously prank influencers are in the wrong but if you don't even engage with that kind of stuff, you can continue to live peacefully. Not worth your energy.
While I know rationalization only helps to a certain point, I feel like it should be said;
- I worked in a large grocery store full-time for several years and not ONCE did somebody ever try to film inside; in my 7+ years of customer service experience I've had *one* incidence with somebody trying to record in store, and we politely asked them to leave, to which they complied.
- Most, if not all, stores *do* have a "no filming" policy, and will both deny permission to film and request the person filming to leave. It doesn't always happen, but it usually does.
- The thing that helped me get over my social anxiety when I was younger, was honestly just realizing that *almost nobody* wants to have anything to do with *anybody else* if they're just running errands/going about their day. It's incredibly rare I even say a word to a stranger whenever I leave the house, and I'm a fairly gregarious person.
Anxiety is obviously more complex than "well you shouldn't be anxious for reasons X Y and Z" but I hope knowing that this is almost certainly never going to happen to you helps with being a little less anxious about being in public.
The Solution? Stay away from the internet and Social Media platforms like UA-cam and Tiktok. And besides chances are slim that this will happen to you anyways.
Most companies DO have policies against filming! I've worked in a customer-facing job for a total of 12 years, and I've only ever encountered someone filming inside ONCE. Hopefully that helps reassure you a little. Also pro tip for you- if you want to run your errands when there are the fewest other people around, go early morning, like as soon as the store opens. The shelves will be well-stocked, so it'll be easier to find things, plus there will be fewer of both customers and employees around which of course reduces the chances of running into a situation like this. Best of luck, friendo.
New Wal mart Challenge: Work 8 hours a day dealing with those idiots while getting paid minimum wage and okay benefits.
To be fair, it is slightly above minimum wage! Still not livable though, especially not while causing immense physical harm to your body on the daily and only having garbage insurance offered to help you with the extra medical expenses you'll be incurring on their behalf.
Gah the second hand embarassment i get from "pranksters" just straight up bothering people is 🤢
In a crisis of sorts over the fact that this Walmart employee was probably harassed to a breaking point and is now in danger of losing their job because these dudes needed drama for a UA-cam video
The back-to-back Jarvis GOLD content is the greatest treat this halloween.
"Back of the store to avoid all the workers"
Homie has never known what a retail store. That's where...most of the employees are. Next to the warehouse part.
I did almost get pepper sprayed in a walmart before. There were these two guys and one was claiming that the other one almost hit his wife with his car and was following them so he had he's bear spray and was going to unleash this inside the Walmart entrance. I actually heard the greeter say on her little radio thingy "do we have security" and meanwhile I was trying to leave the store with my groceries. At least he didn't pull a weapon
All they're doing is being annoying jerks, and normal sane people either humor them or get annoyed. When they're nice, they think they "tricked" them and they "win" and when they get annoyed they also think they've "won" by getting a rise out of them.
I never realized how similar every Walmart parking-lot looked like until I watched this video and thought “huh. That kinda looks like my Walmart.”
The fact that they don't realize how pathetic they are is amazing. How do you not realize that people are just humoring you?
i do feel rly bad for that employee who ripped the guys shirt off bc while obv they shouldn't grab customers the guy mustve definitely provoked him a lot n now the employee is for sure getting fired bc of those assholes
when he was like "I just went into a room with twenty employees" It was the break room, in the associate only section, not a busy aisle as his challenge said to do.
As a former Walmart employee, the break room is the rare moment you get to sit down. Everyone in there is exhausted; they’re not going to bother with a weird customer who leaves on his own.
oh god.... I used to be OBSESSED with these guys when I was younger, but after I started realizing they weren't great guys for pranking I frogot about them.... WOW this was a throwback
Dear god how long have they been doing this for 😭

Okay glad I'm not the only one this was such a throw back, they are suck terrible people now
Im turning 30 and feel like I'm not achieving much in life. Like I don't feel like an adult and it makes me feel immature.......
But yanno what I feel so much better knowing that this guy is making youtube videos doing walmart pranks at the age of 20-fucking-9. That's insane.
As someone who'll be 27 in 2 days that part sent meeee ... I used to watch this content when I was 19/20 and usually you see creators like this being of a similar age, not pushing 30 😭 not that it's excusable for younger people but it's more understandable that someone barely out of high school would be doing all that shit lmao
Like I want to be a content creator and I felt bad because of my age. After seeing this I instantly thought "well damn at least I aint doing that" lmfao@@fortunamajor7239
Yeah crazy thats he a millionaire
I have schizophrenia and I have had delusions in the past involving cameras and being filmed for public consumption no matter where I went. I know on my worse days someone showing a camera in my face and "pranking" me would've sent me on a downward spiral.
I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but if you're serious, I completely feel you. I don't have schizophrenia myself, I have autism and severe social anxiety. And if some loud mouth prankster decided the do this to me, I'd probably do the same as you.
@@BongMilker2006 I'm serious, I wouldn't joke about having schizophrenia. It ruined my life.
@@mmimic I'm very sorry to hear about this. People always joke about schizophrenia so it's hard to tell sometimes.
@@BongMilker2006 Oh no I understand. Haha believe me it's awful.
@@mmimic I couldn't even imagine what it's like.
Yes that's right children, go accost some grannies at your local Walmart 🙄
how chronically online is it to refer to being kicked out of a store as being "kicked"
Huh? That's what being kicked means!
how chronically online is it to think that term wasn't used well before the internet existed lmao
my friend and I once got approached by a somewhat “known” tv personality at a club. He came up to us with a camera in hand, and said hi. Then he said “say something nice” and we said something nice about the place or the night etc (can’t remember exactly what we said lol) and he was like “no, say something nice about me” and my friend deadass looked him up and down and said “but we don’t know you”
The second part ended up not being a part of his vlog on youtube.
I am honestly surprised there are no anti-influencer laws for certain stores as of yet
These types of cases are getting extremely common now and it surely boils my blood to hear about these jerks
JARVIS AND KURTIS TODAY LEGS GO
yo i think I was first for the first time
LEGS FUCKIN GOOOO
legs go 💨🦵
i imagine this as like some king announcing "Legs, GOOO!" like releasing the kraken😭
@@someguy1894 and the great monster LEGS bursts from the underground chambers and wreaks havoc on the village below!!!!
When I worked in fast food, someone tried to prank me in the drive-thru and I just didn’t play along with the prank, and then it led to a very awkward situation when they had to pay for their food at the window. It feels like these pranks are at most funny to one party, but mostly just waste everyone’s time. They are almost never funny to the worker.
wealthy influencers should do a challenge called tipping essential workers way more than i legally need to challenge
as a french learner the accent part made me start SHAKING
My favorite snake noise, “SNEEEEEEEEEeeeeee sneeeeEeeeeeee”
As someone who works at Walmart these kind of people are the bane of my existence. Especially because I'm AuDHD so I'm already overstimulated as it is. But then kids/teens go and play with the demo Bluetooth speakers.and crank up the volume and sends me into a meltdown. I WISH we had a policy that banned influencers/prank channels.
As far as staying in the store all day? We don't give two flying f*cks. As long as you're not running around being obnoxious, we don't care.
ik right, i have sensory issues and i always feel like i have to leave before i get overwhelmed and meltdown
Why are these comments just people stating their mental health conditions?
@@Ukraineaissance2014 why are you so upset at that? Why do you want mental health issues to be stigmatized and not talked about? GTFO of my replies with that ish
Edit: also, being an autistic person, it's part of who I am. I'm not ashamed of it and will keep talking about it. Don't like it? Block and scroll/move on.
@@salemmarz3809 I'm so sorry 🫂
You're definitely not alone.
Because people are using them for a sense of identity and self diagnosing on a huge scale. Its already hugely affected adhd with the amount of cretins falsely claiming it with it being flavour of the month
You can always tell these people just grew up on the internet and have never had to actually work a service job. They think they're getting away with something, when really, it's just Tuesday for the Supermarket employees, and these kids ain't clever.
The way if people had done this at the grocery store i worked at in high school, id just sigh and leave unless customers complained. Like never get paid enough to deal with it
Golden rule of pranks:
Confuse, not Abuse
My nightmare is a random person pranking me and filming it for children
15:25
My guess is the guy got the employees name or information somehow while filming- which is information he didn’t want reveal plus his face. Then I bet there was a back and forth about it, the person refusing to delete the clip or name, then cue the scene of the running and grabbing.
The scene they cut out is the back and forth before the running. I say this because the employee was saying “get rid of my name on there”.
So I’m guessing things escalated because he wanted his information protected and the prankster refused to delete it. Then they edited out the back and forth because how would you look “good” if you refuse to delete any private information? Either that or they were planning to delete it anyway, but wanted to bait the employee to react.
Had a sobering moment when jarvis was like "your life should not be in danger in a Walmart" and i remembered its completely reasonable to be afraid for our lives in public in the US. We have mass shooting events constantly, this is our normal
I used to be obsessed with their abandoned places 24 hour challenge videos when I was real little, glad I grew out of it
When I was really little UA-cam wasn’t a thing lolz I feel so old and I’m only 28 😆😂
@sagittariusgurl818 i know what you mean, UA-cam started halfway through my first year of college! 😂 We did have Newgrounds when I was younger, though.
same
"crowded isle" and bro goes to the fucking break room
so glad the premium channel is in fact free !
Jarvis giving up the bag for us 😔
@@brkh96 shows how much he cares about his fanbase, to make premium viewership free
"Bro that was literally a room full of literally 20 employees bro. That was literally so insane bro, they totally heard me say yes in spanish as a literal snake bro"
This might be one of my longest premium memberships
the craziest part is youtube ENCOURAGES this kind of behaviour, they fully know what happens when someone puts “24 hours in a ____” or “i got attacked in a walmart” in their title and they PUSH these in the algorithm. Yes, obviously these people shouldn’t be doing this but youtube should also be putting their down becaus eventually something extreme will happen and they will have no choice and it could have been easily prevented.
Worked at Walmart and during AP training (teamleads and up + the ap team) they if you see someone who is in the building and there for 2+ hours with no progress in shopping (like just wandering around, not actually getting any products) you are supposed to implement the 10 foot rule. That rule is basically for everyone in 10 feet of you you greet them, ask if they need any assistance and wish them a good day etc. If they continue to do so they're monitored entering the electronics, outdoor or sporting goods sections or until they leave. We were also a high theft store and the stores around us, so we were taking suspicious behavior probably a lot more seriously then everyone else lol. If we (management) see people filming (like influencer filming) we have to ask them to not film associates or customers without their permission and please to not cause a disturbance/causing property damage. Thankfully ive never had to do either 😂😂 id die from seeing the cringe lol
Also that employee who attacked is super getting canned. Which sucks cause we don't actually know what happened but as a normal associate you are NOT allowed to engage. You alert management and AP and walk away. I assume they're a floor associate cause no yellow lead/coach/AP tag but ofc could be wrong. Hope they were okay after that fall though ouch
I'm actually praying I never have to meet anyone like this. the anxiety is bad enough without being filmed and shamed in public
That Walmart associate sadly got fire more than lively. It's instant termination to grab any customer or trespasser no matter the situation.
Not even walmart security can touch them.
As a retail worker, my first thought watching this was "man, they really want to make themselves seem like they're planning on shoplifting"
The only thing that they DIDN'T do, was put on jackets or shoes from the store and walk around with those, that would've been an immediate "yup, we need to call security to keep an eye out on them"
Walmart worker here, this is my worst nightmare. I've had people film my coworkers like this before, my friends who work at other places have dealt with these types of pranks. Genuinely think there's got to be some sort of legal action or rules against this type of garbage. Crossing my fingers that this content stops going viral so it stops entirely.
The "french accent" part was hard to get through both physically and mentally. He certainly has never heard a french person speak
Edit: the worker said "get rid of my name on there" makes me assume he read out the guys name and the worker just didn't want to be doxxed. I'd run after him to making sure he deletes it tbh.
Jarvis casually dropping this video like “I saw this now everyone else has to suffer with me!” 😅
I think I just gave myself a migraine from cringing so hard 💀
Every bone in my body hurts from the cringe.
The guy in the purple shirt is only a couple of years younger than me?! Wtf?!
I would say as a person that has worked in stores, if the employee is paying attention and notices a person hanging around for a weird amount of time it might raise a red flag. If I work in a store and people are acting cagey i take note and keep and eye on them. 4:14
The fact the dude is 29 is honestly so crazy😂 what’s man’s even doin with his life
making braindead content for annoying middle schoolers makes the money i guess
What does age have to do with this?
The fact they even went to the break room. I know if someone came into my break room on my break I would be like “get the heck out of here, this is the one time I have to relax".
Oh yeah the back of the store, you mean where workers access the backrooms and break room? I'm sure no workers will be spotted there!
Why would one do a challenge video in a public space? Such a POS move. The way they actively taunt the employees for the video is so weird too.
walmart challenges are like the walmart of challenges
This whole challenge reminds me of when me and my cousin as kids would go around the family house hiding from one place to another acting like no one can see us but everyone is looking at us and just letting it go cause we're children
FINALLY SOMEONE IS MAKING A VIDEO ABOUT THESE GUYS. My siblings watch them and they absolutely love them. Ew. They're just promoting bothering people and being super inconsiderate
Hank Green gave us 10 hours in a Target like 12 years ago, and he bothered no one in the process
people like this make me feel embarrassed to be terminally online...
My dyslexic ass read “Can we stop parking strangers” and I was immediately on board
watching jarvis is like a fever dream kind of
maybe you have a fever
@@cc13556 yea probably
As a former child, I was subscribed to the Ireland boys when I was around 13 (currently 20) and yes, they were doing Walmart videos such as this back then.
16:23 Noooo, they seriously saw Dhar Mann's views, and thought "yeah, we can do that" and thought they could just slap an "inspirational" quote at the end 💀 I half expect Dhar to pop up like "What's up Dhar Mann fam" 🤣
most hourly employees aren't gonna say anything because when customers are like these guys we're supposed to tell a salaried manager to deal with it.
Sir, thank you for the service you do. I couldn't make myself watch the kind of lunacy you do and I certainly couldn't come out of the other side with any sanity left.
Ireland boys was a pretty prominent part of my childhood growing up in the UA-cam era. Not sure why my brother and I watched them but I’ve never seen anyone talk about them. Glad to see Jarvis is the one to do the honors.
I have been terrified to even leave my apartment with the number of sh00tings happening, and seeing people like this purposely make people uncomfortable in places they have to go for groceries is so hurtful. I would start crying if someone didn't leave me alone when I tried to ignore their stupid jokes. Can you imagine the stress that worker must have been under to snap like that? They have no idea what is happening in his life and they possibly just ruined it. That could lead someone to really dangerous decisions.
Jarvis is like my dad if my dad was Jarvis Johnson
yters like these embarrass me so bad how do they just go around acting like this
yeah im like how are you not embarrassed to be acting like an unfunny middle schooler in public you’re 30 YEARS OLD
free AND premium?? jarvis and kurtis spoil us rotten
Oh boy i feel so premium when my favorite premium channel posts!
Influencer brain is when you think snakes sound like fucking Pokémon
I’m starting my job at Walmart in a couple days this video is getting me pumped man
Good luck, honestly.
@@meifennellysieu7510 thank you!
A much better trend is goofing around positively with employees in ways that make their days more enjoyable coming from a position of empathy for the kind of stuff they have to put up with. And then don't take video of doing it because hey that's just Empathy™️ and Being A Person™️
"Hey i just met you, and this is crazy but stop filming me your content maybe"
That's boring
Once when I was about to ask for someone’s card for their drink, the guy just said ‘no’ and then immediately laughed and went ‘just kidding! here you go’
That’s the only valid prank
The minute Jarvis said, "I am going to try not to react" I started laughing so hard. Good luck, buddy.
I love how everytime theyre asked to make a sound they do something entirely disconnected from what they were asked to do?? That's not what a snake sounds like dude. Or french people???
It's like that vine of the girl from Little Mix tryna do a Jamaican accent 😂
