Candid Camera is a hidden camera show which altogether has run for 38 seasons in the United States, the last being in 2004. There have also been versions of the show in countries around the world. Although the Russian one didn’t last very long.
This video shows a stunt apparently going wrong when the prankster hides in a postbox and pushes any letters dropped in back through the hole. It’s a stunt that’s been done many times before, but maybe never with this conclusion.
I assume this is a spoof video because otherwise we’ve just witnessed someone getting shot in the face by a man with a handgun. A man who clearly has no sense of humor and overreacted terribly to being mocked.
Regardless of it being a spoof, it’s still a shocking and wholly unexpected end to the video. The tribute at the end to the guy in the postbox is a nice touch, although if it turns out this actually happened then it’s really quite tragic. Nah, it can’t be real, can it?
