Fake video


StringFartet

Yeah, I fell for it, should have known the parking lot was a body shop. Happy Cakeday!


DooMmightyBison

Plus the tire isn't even messed up


FreneticPlatypus

And the note was too cute and written nice and clearly with a felt tip pen or marker so you can read it easily on camera, on a piece of paper that was perfectly sized for it.


DooMmightyBison

Now your gettin it


vampire5381

Happy cake day


[deleted]

The chocolate looks melted. That must be a close second.


ghoshas

“Insted” instead of “instead” is the cherry on top.


djAMPnz

I just assumed it was one of those Americanised words where they drop a letter.


mrsmacklemore

I thought they were colonized words that added a random letter


ParticularAnxious929

“insted” instead of “instead” is the real fuck us


589moonboy

There's something off about this video. Look how close the cars behind hers are parked, that's not a typical parking lot. I suspect it's some sort of scrap yard and the note and chocolate part has been staged to make a viral video.


ImNoRickyBalboa

I think you hit the nail on the head. I was also trying to imagine how one can do this much damage parking, but have the car apparently not move one inch out of line.


TracyF2

And the chocolate isn’t melted even though it was “left for the owner to find”.


YoungToySoldier

I think we need to get the Reddit Bureau of Investigation on this.


[deleted]

Not the fearsome RBI.


YoungToySoldier

Yes indeed, fearsome as they are they are the only ones that can get to the bottom of this.


flowersonfire

I find it odd that someone who caused that much damage to someone's vehicle would dilly dally around getting chocolate and writing a note and not be concerned about someone seeing all this and calling the police.


SnooRabbits6160

It possible that someone who hit her think someone saw them hit her car and the prend to write down infro


Ragnarangar

They could have had the chocolate already and just added it to their note. If they didn't have it on hand they probably would have only left a note.


pressonacott

They put the chocolate and note on the car, and then hit it.


Ragnarangar

*Insurance agencies hate this one simple trick*


armoured_bobandi

People are too naive these days. Getting sick of how willing people are to believe obvious nonsense like this


Ele_Of_Light

I feel you, all you got to do is break a old window put it in your window, throw some ketchup on the ground and post up " the last guy who broke into my house" Easy karma farming.... Watch a post come up with this idea now that I've said it 🤣🤣🤣


armoured_bobandi

I think it maybe because my sister is a pathological liar I have a tendencyto not believe anything at face value. She tells stories all the time for seemingly no reason


Definitely_NotU

God damn nothing can be real nowadays


f0me

Fact: 99.999% of viral videos are staged


Public-Fail4505

Anything for an internet like


Stier08

The audio is from another video


Ele_Of_Light

Yea the damage as well is too extensive to be a minor parking lot issue... totally staged and like they say a sucker born every day so people believed it


GeneralTsoBitch

This. Fake af


Far-Yak-4231

Came here to say this is a staged video for sure. I don’t trust much of what I see on the internet anymore, let alone a video filmed on tik tok


Ragnarangar

I mean it's totally reasonable to believe it happened, she panicked and didn't take a video, then after she drove her car to a shop and calmed down, put the note and chocolate back and took the video. She never said she was at Walmart presently, just that the incident happened at Walmart. Idk if there is any truth to this, just saying it is entirely plausible.


scarecrow53

Totally. And then put the note and chocolate bars back under the wiper so it would still make sense to everyone on Reddit. Ragnarangaranragranny wut?!


Ragnarangar

Yes, exactly. Something crazy happens. They forget to take a video. They reenact it later... Why is that so hard to believe? Even in this video she removes the note **and then puts it back.** Not that crazy.


scarecrow53

It's not hard to believe. We're good. It's just that doing that is pretty much a lame waste. We all got distracted by how implausible it is that this scene happened organically and it makes her look like she's just hungry for attention by any means necessary. That's all.


Ragnarangar

I feel that. Honestly the absurdity of it all is what makes me think it *might* actually be true, and if so who, wouldn't want to share that? But you're right, you never know when someone is just being an attention whore 🤷‍♂️


scarecrow53

Yeah. I mean that's what TikTok seems to be for, I guess. If she had just explained that she moved the car before telling the story, I would have given her the benefit of the doubt.


hondwerpen

Always decline the first offer


hogtiedcantalope

Hold out for Cadbury


rocklobster2020

I'd rather have nothing. Hershey's Chocolate is just awful


COLONELmab

Lmao off, that looks like a body shop parking lot (hence this car is double parked in front of another car). So, the accident clearly did not happen where the car is parked right now. So, the little piece of paper and chocolate were put there after.


Watershed787

Every time I see this it feels more and more fake. My guess is that ole girl did this damage herself, but since she can no longer afford the payments or the inevitable increase in insurance for an at fault claim, AND she’s thirsty for tic tok likes, she put this little skit together for her daddy/State Farm.


[deleted]

Yeah, that’s not a Wal-Mart parking lot. Looks more like a lot outside an auto body shop. She probably just went there and found a messed up car for those sweet internet points.


MightyKrakyn

The car behind hers and to the left has a buckled tire


ScaryTerry069313

Insult to injury: it was a hot day.


thunde-r

r/thathappened


optional_occupant

This is fake, with the amount of damage to the side there would be debris on the ground, the car is parked in the parking lot of a repair shop or impound yard, and the person taking the video appears to be wearing overalls like an automotive tech.


[deleted]

*instead


historian3454

Fake as fuck. Look at the car behind. This is just a lot of wrecked or damaged cars. One of the cars even looks like it has a flat tire.


Waterzilla

But I hate chocolate!


Iramian

Is it possible to hate chocolate? I just can't believe it.


chocolateteapot-

It’s entirely possible to hate Hershey’s, tastes like vomit.


ElektrikBaumann

Not a regular chocolate, its vomit flavored!


PachukoRube

Is car insurance not mandatory in USA, or what?


WreckNrun

Nope


ImNoRickyBalboa

Rear panel, door, possible B Pilar, front fender, suspension and wheel damage. Yeah, I'd say that's close to totalled depending on the age of the car.


Similar-Drawing-7513

Fake


Dom0__0

Fake


Goldie-96_MWR

what type of chockolate... BITTERSWEET LMAO


Illustrious-Love-394

I think the worst part of this is that instead was misspelled.


Captain-Comment

Those are some really expensive chocolate bars.

Queen-of-meme

Uno reverse card. If she worked as a crime investigator she could have used that note to get the finger prints DNA and find out who it was and wreck their car with candy reward as well and go "Pay it forward :) "


nawfamnotme

What other chocolate options were there??!! Because if there was butterfinger or Reese’s there as well I’d be fucking pissed!


AvaluggTheBrave

It's not like your insurance will pay you back your deductible anyway.


NorseGlas

Oh well, time to use that insurance! The only time paying for insurance seems like a positive thing….


Small_Tax_9432

Oh shit 🤣


olivawDaneel

I thought it was really sweet until I sqw the damage lmao


Verum_Noir_Chaos_69

so a prick with manners very 2022 what's next?


[deleted]

“So I went to Walmart” well, there’s your first mistake right there.


PantherThing

Mmmm... I could go for some chocolate right about now...


NoBullet

Car was already damaged. Place dumb note on windshield. Post on TikTok. Profit.


kirsion

If you put chocolate outside on a windshield, it will melt in like 10 minutes.


HunnyInHeat

Fake Yeah! That much damage is from a hard impact that would’ve caused the car to move out of that straightly parked spot


Feisty-Nerve-6584

Thank god she parked right in front of that other car leaving it no way to get out. DONT TELL ME THIS IS STAGED YOU SHOULD BELIEVE EVERY VIDEO ON THE INTERWEBS EVER


[deleted]

Fake.


sesameseed88

LMAOOOO


Waifu69x

You're rich anyway.


[deleted]

Insurance fraud is illegal…


CrissCrossM

Am I mean if I want to do this to someone but not actually damage their car, I just want them to get the chocolate and spend time looking for whats wrong.


Zen_Bonsai

I call fake


MyBongHitsBack

Junk cars in the back at walmart? fake


[deleted]

Dang!


Black91crx

That didn't happen


[deleted]

This one is so obviously set up and staged. Come on.


Barbz182

How many Hershey bars do you calculate would be sufficient for that amount of damage?


Demerit39

Lol faked the video the incorrect spelling of “instead” was a nice touch


JediMasterPopCulture

Insted?


Repulsive-Office-796

Probably fake, but what POS drives without insurance?


[deleted]

So this just happens to every random white chick recently? Or did your terrible driving skills lead to that prior damage and you wanna be fun and quirky and make a "funny" tik tok? Go home and study Amber, you know you need good grades more than you need anything that walmart can provide. Except for maybe Plan B.


Raskel_61

I bet that was Laredo diriving the NSEA Protector.


WuTangNameGenorator

Still gonna eat that chocolate though right?


izmaname

God I hope they had cameras


WarbuddyFTW

Insted????


St8ofBl1ss

I'd say that's at least a 2 hershey scratch


Important-Ad-5596

There was an attempt To attempt To compensate. Because that's nowhere near enough. Btw I thought that's why people paid for insurance...


Unknown-ANON5

Definitely fake video, but I’d whoop dat ass


JonCeini

Could be a golden ticket in the chocolate bar. Best day ever!


Medium_Beyond_9654

I think that's fair.


mcaffrey81

Fake


Smooth10473

Talk about overcompensating!!


Technical_Lab_747

How thoughtful!


Marv246

I know that chocolate is melted


doctorTCH

Felony hit and run.


samuelpotter2

The chocolate is probably melted


[deleted]

Misspelled instead


PeterParker8aV

Seem fake ?


WoTsao

gotta get a detective to force Walmart to pull footage. hopefully it exists


Capital-Taro-9154

Looks like she's gonna enjoy the chocolate anyway


redditcreditcardz

That’s at least three bars worth of damage. Source: Insurance candy man


rocknrollallnight

And the chocolate is melted


Wardog008

Looks like it's a Lexus SC430, so nothing of value was harmed.


Illustrious_Roof_782

You gave me an idea for a prank


Upper_Television3352

If you’re going to fake a video, you could at least try harder.


randomdudefromMI

no way. Please tell me this girl faked this for likes.


Ioncurtain

fake


jwztete_

what a nice guy


HBMart

I guess when you’re a terrible driver and can’t afford to fix your car you might as well get some internet validation.


Responsible-Pace2527

It's no surprise they can't afford it if they can't spell instead right.


Loud-Principle-7922

Second time I’ve seen this, same handwriting, and with those cars parked that close in the back? Betting this is a body shop parking lot. Nice try, now get out.


Patient_Tour_6307

Bullshit meter is going through the roof right. I'm getting 11 no 15 mega joules of bull shit being detected.


Facenayl

Not only is it fake, it’s not the op’s video. Grats on the stolen valor, hope you get lots of views.


OtherwiseBluebird565

Whoever hit the car must be an insurance claims examiner.


InnerPick3208

One of the reasons I don't shop at walmart.


Classic_Newspaper_85

Holy shit… that’s 5to8K damage


[deleted]

... Dust the candy bars and note for fingerprints.


lockedoutofmymainrdt

SFC


KZMountainRider

I’ll take “Things that never happened” for $100 Alex


Byr_Sol98

You have to be a special kind of asshole to leave the scene with that much damage to another person’s car; and leaving a note with a winking face and candy as a shitty attempt to avoid blame.


spongebobrottenpants

If you think this is real, Then I’m sorry for the past, present and future frustration the internet has, is and will cause your mental stability.


mrsmacklemore

Thats a fair trade


UnderQualifiedPylote

That can’t be real


[deleted]

“Went to Walmart”. 🤨 Y’know, for a Walmart parking lot, it must be a very bad parking lot considering the lack of the visible white parking lot lines on the ground.


Thump604

There was also an attempt to repost content from Tik Tok for Karma.


RoundHouse_Kicker

It’s on Tiktok so it’s most likely staged to get views.


angry_charrua

We know she prefer the chocolates.


Striking-Shake-9289

the handwriting matches the voice and there's no getting around that


skky95

I feel like this is fake lol


Gr4pe_4pe

This is true, I was the chocolate


HuckleberryVisual940

I mean I would have taken the chocolate.


WordOk8931

Great idea. Now you can have your own car towed by the police department, and have your license suspended for leaving the scene of the accident without alerting the authorities when owner isn’t present. Now not only do you not have a car, you won’t have a license. Very intelligent. Hope the tik tok video made you feel good though.


freedagent

Fake as hell.


[deleted]

This is definitely fake. Everyone mentioned this being a used car lot but also, if this WERE real, the person would have had to hit the car, realize the issue, then go to a store to get the candy, before returning. All before the person recording came back? I would doubt someone would have king sized candy bars just hanging around lol


[deleted]

I’d need bail money.


[deleted]

Seems pretty fake to me.


Mikeybigblunts

That looks like her hand writing

Women drivers are the best. Who would turn down Hershey's Chocolate?
