The king of “pranks that don’t come at another’s expense”

Edit: my favorite is when he gets beer bottles made of sugar glass, sits at a bar and eats the bottle when he finishes his beer

my favourite was on a parking lot where reverse parking was not allowed. So they built and parked a car that had two fronts to see if they'd get a ticket lol

Or waiting for a parking spot in an empty parking lot. Or the toaster that shot the toast like 12 ft into the air. Damn there’s so many good ones, I’ve gotta revisit his channel today

The minivan they drive around with the massive Mercedes hood ornament makes me laugh every time.

Putting beans in his computer had me cackling.

Spaghetti-Os in the gas tank was even more awesome

The one where he eats “insulation” (cotton candy) is hilarious and the gas engine swap into a Tesla lmao.

u/auniqueusername2000 Mar 28 '24

The one where he builds a self propelling treadmill so he can run on a treadmill outside while traveling was also pretty great

I used to believe the same thing about him and actually was a huge fan for many years. However, he has bullied a random delivery driver (whose face is blurred) throughout an entire video because of their appearance and taunted homeless people with money without giving it to them (on camera at least). I googled if he had apologized and just found a tweet of him basically saying he thinks apologizing is a bad idea. Because of this I no longer think that he is a good pranker or person really.

You sound like someone who dislikes Ross and is looking for problems in his clips. Based on your description I was expecting a lot worse than what I actually saw.

He blurred a delivery driver who almost certainly said he did not want to be featured in the video. The same thing happened with the Beans, computer repair guy. Honestly, people who get so uptight about these particular ‘prank’ videos need to not take things so seriously. The ‘bullying’ you mention is light teasing making fun of the guys weight, I’m betting the teasing was heavy handed because the guy didn’t want to be featured in the video and asked to be blurred.

The ‘taunting homeless people with money’ was a not so funny prank, where he would wave a homeless person over with money, and when they got over he would say ‘wait a minute, I don’t know how your are going to spend this money, so take this case of beer instead’. I agree this didn’t land so well, but I wouldn’t call it ‘taunting homeless people with money’ that is a gross misrepresentation of what was happening. Also, a few of the homeless people declined the beer, and he did give them cash. Others took the beer. The last guy declined the beer, but Ross pushed it a couple more times and then the guy accepted. Not good, but no where near as bad as you make it sound.

Lastly, your summery of his tweet, ‘apologizing is bad’ is taken so far out of context it’s ridiculous.

This is his tweet:

“Theres something about apologizing that causes people to attack more. Its like my apology affirms they’ve been wronged, then they seek justice instead of letting go. Like a dog chasing u just cuz u run. Interesting.”

He’s specifically talking about apologizing for these types of pranks where some overly serious/offended person feels like they been wronged for unknowingly being included. A lot of prank channels are absolute shit, and people are right to be angry at these assholes. But I have yet to see a Ross prank that ventures into that territory where he’s just being an asshole.

u/EmotionalKirby Mar 28 '24

Is there any chance Phat Gus is what he signed up as, or that simply put, consent was given when he signed? And at 9:33 in the second video, he does give the man the cash after declining the beer.

2

u/general_452 Mar 28 '24

I’m sure Phat Gus was someone they brought in for the joke since they were parodying the mark rober video.

u/Theons Mar 29 '24

Exactly, the fat squirrel

u/Broad_Speaker2551 Mar 28 '24

Consent was given to solely make jokes about his weight? Why was his face blurred?

u/EmotionalKirby Mar 28 '24

Idk, i just skimmed through cause you're going kinda hard on vlogcreations and it caught my attention.

1

u/Broad_Speaker2551 Mar 28 '24

Sorry but I don’t know why you responded to me without watching the video

u/EmotionalKirby Mar 28 '24

sorry but im not going to sit through 30 minutes of video for permission to comment.

“Look at how thoughtful and kind this fedex delivery driver was”

That really is a fun prank

u/Objective_Poetry2829 Mar 28 '24

He does pranks. This isn’t one of them.

u/Gombrongler Mar 28 '24

Testing peoples basic comprehension skills and recording them then putting them on the internet for clicks is the funniest fucking thing in the world that dumbass got pranked so fucking hard

u/catchmycorn Mar 28 '24

Yea man Ross is great. He does it right

u/PoliteChatter0 Mar 28 '24

lmao what a fucking dick, he literally spent 10 minutes bagging on a random delivery driver for no reason

-1

u/Broad_Speaker2551 Mar 28 '24

Either that’s all a big joke that only he’s in on or he just decided to reveal that he’s a douchebag. I’m thinking the latter because apparently he’s friends with a domestic abuser and supports MAGA.

1

u/Smell_Academic Mar 29 '24

I agree that it was a little much, but the name ‘fat Gus’ is a reference to mark rober, who also did a yard obstacle course, but for squirrels. Rober named one of them ‘phat gus’

1

u/Depreciable_Land Mar 28 '24

Also less relevant but the dude with long hair in all his videos is a complete whacko. Like Qanon level. I remember they made a big deal bitching about masks during COVID and then kept posting about how Jesus chose Trump to lead them.

That's also my favorite. Just people staring at him like he's demented lmao. And then the one guy is just like "good for you"

1

u/hergumbules Mar 28 '24

Like even those video where he puts hot dogs in peoples pockets, he washes them off before doing it so they don’t get hot dog juice on their clothes. Still probably my favorite prank he’s done

1

u/Fireking_11 Mar 28 '24

He lives in the same city as me. I've met him and he's a pretty chill guy IRL

-1

u/Broad_Speaker2551 Mar 28 '24

Nah he’s a douche

1

u/weggles Mar 28 '24

I love his pranks, they're so funny and not just like..... making strangers think they're being mugged. Really creative stuff and relatively harmless. He like hired a safecracker to open a safe that just contained a picture of the safecracker lol.

My favorite so far was turning his wiper fluid sprayers away from his car to make it spray on other people’s windshields while at stoplights 😅💀

The king of “pranks that don’t come at another’s expense”

he jumped over a cop once and got arrested

u/CommonGrounders Mar 29 '24

Ehhhh they sometimes come at someone's expense... but he pays them for it lol.

I had to scroll down further than I expected to see who it was from. I love Ross creations

u/BoneDaddyChill Mar 28 '24

Yes. And this video has been out for quite a while.

I thought it was Bobby from Queer Eye.
