Mark Rover presents ‘glitter bomb’ content every year
Making your own Halloween basket… Capturing children’s reactions
An overseas creator who attracted a lot of attention with content targeting package thieves released experimental content targeting young children for Halloween.
According to YouTube on the 6th, American experimental YouTuber Mark Rober, who has over 27.4 million subscribers, posted a video titled ‘Halloween candy thieves vs. manipulated candy bowl’ on the 2nd.
American comedian Jimmy Kimmel also appeared in the video along with Mark Rover and his group.
Rover, who met Kimmel at the beginning of the video, said, “Jimmy, you are the originator of ‘telling kids you ate all the candy.’” He added, “I am the glitter bomb guy, so if the two of us work together, we can punish people who take multiple pieces of candy.” We exchanged greetings.
Previously, Rover had produced several fake boxes equipped with self-made devices such as skunk spray and glitter piles to target package thieves in the United States.
The camera installed inside the box captures the surprise of those who secretly took the delivery box. Among his series of videos, there is content that has reached 90 million views.
There are a total of 10 devices produced by Rover and his team for this Halloween.
It included ▲a candy basket that shoots spray, ▲a table that falls over when its weight is lost, ▲a glass bottle made of sugar, and ▲police siren sounds. There were also strategies such as lurking and popping out, or hiding under a table and sticking out a hand from under the basket.
In addition, projects with neighbors were carried out, such as ‘making a wanted poster’, ‘a candy box containing a vibrating motor and communication device’, and ‘an ultrasonic speaker that creates an atmosphere of fear’.
They revealed that they randomly selected 35 entrances across the United States and placed these devices. A headquarters has also been set up to monitor the situation in real time.
In the video, the candy basket placed in front of the front door has a sign saying ‘Take just one’, and children who see this react by saying things like ‘I’ll take a handful’ and ‘I’ll take as much as I want.’
However, most children who encounter the various experimental devices made by Rover are shocked and take a step back.
Shouting was the most common reaction, and various comments were also made, such as “I’ll give it back,” “I’ll only take one,” and “I was so scared that I almost died.” Some children were so shocked that swear words instantly came out of their mouths.
Netizens who saw the video commented, “It’s funny to see the father laughing in the background while the child is struggling,” “I wish the prank video was longer,” and “The rover guides the children from darkness to light.”
Meanwhile, the video was viewed over 11.42 million times as of this morning.
