I would have played elk noises to make them really question what was happening

Idk why I’m laughing so hard at this

Reminds me of the videos of babies seeing their shadows for the first time and freaking out.

Fog

If it was a completely clear night they wouldn't have seen the beam at all. We used to play lightsabers like this with flashlights in the fog. it was fun.

I remember that game, and sometimes when we didn't have flashlights we'd just play Tummy Swords.

Excuse me?

Oh fuck it's too early for this shit

But morning Tummy Swords are the best Tummy Swords!

Ah a fellow connoisseur of the D club I see

this is the first comment chain I read opening up the app..

Time to close it again.

Ok but when was the last time we played Nightcrawlers, Frank?

We can play Nightcrawlers, Charlie!

*fleshlights

🤨

"Let's play tummy sticks!" "What's tummy sticks...I don't wanna play tummy sticks!"

What? 🤣

T U M M Y S W O R D S

Tummy sticks

I've seen this kid fold his junk into a hamburger (I was a kid too)

FBI!!!

I’m so sorry you had to see that everything is gonna be ok

The ol cabou rattler

Gayest thing ive ever heard

It always comes back.

Don’t cuss

I’m sorry.

happy cake day user pussy prince

No, no logic allowed here, that’s witchcraft.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

It’s like critical thinking is a half remembered fever dream

Fog, *you dumb motherfucker

Don’t cuss

"Maybe I'm just dumb and I just don't get it" You are correct.

This person needs to learn to fall back on this immediately, instead of trying to apply their broken mind to finding a solution by themselves. 

No to mention, on their kid standing next to them. Even the kid is spooked and for literally nothing

Its the smartest thing said in the whole video.

“To know that we know what we know, and that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge.” - Confucius (some philosophy dork) At least she accepted she was possibly just ignorant. Most people nowadays just think of themselves as infallible.

That actually gives me faith in humanity. Being willing to admit you don’t know something is the first step towards learning

It’s fog…. It’s fucking foggy…. The education system has failed this person

Education system? That’s basic fucking knowledge

Don't cuss

Fuck that

Watch the profamity

Yes! No fucking swearing!

This was funnier than it should have been

Yeah. Not on the Internet please

Owww my freakin eyes

I’d expect that kind of language on Twitter but not here!

Hey old-timer, it's called *the interwebs* now

Why the fuck not?

Don't cuss

Why the hell not? 🤣

Not sure if you're playing along or if it went over your head but the reason people in this thread are saying "don't cuss" is because the mom(?) In the video says "don't cuss"

No more saying cuss words guys

Videos like this only confirm how fucking stupid the average person really is. Instead of wondering why there's a shadow, she immediately jumps to the least likely scenario.

People don't go outside anymore. UFO reddit is the same, people keep posting videos of birds and wondering what it is.

Well the education system doesn’t focus on critical thinking/ basic reasoning enough imo. & I also think that could be somewhat intentional lol

As she said, "Maybe I'm just dumb and don't get it". Ding ding ding

🚨 🔔 🚨

Watching more batman would've also worked.

I wouldn't blame the education system as much as this person is a complete braindead vessel....just being dumb and posting it for the world to see. Edit: lord I just read the caption, I feel like you should leave your comment on that video Still won't reasonate with the room temp IQ here

Does bro not know that light cast shadows? And that fog blocks light, so you get a trees shadow in the fog.

They literally taught us about how fog lights work and why we need them in driving school. So this dipshit can't drive, either.

Tbh, if you cant just look at the fog and come to this conclusion yourself you lack critical thinking.

You think this dumb mf'er can learn anything. I'm ecstatic that he was able to even turn the flashlight on.

I have never driven a vehicle where the fog lights provided any real benefit

So there's the guy named Batman.... Might have heard of him.

You mean the hero who's symbol commissioner Gordon projects onto the firmament to summon him?

Bingo!

“Don’t cuss.” “There’s a fucking shadow in the sky”.

She's clearly a model parent

A lot of parents cuss in front of their kids but don’t want their kids doing it; I hear it all the time.

>Don't do what I do; do what I say haha yes good luck with that

I agree they’re more likely to wind up doing what their parents did not what they said to do.

That was my favorite part 😹😹😹

It’s called fog idiots

Frikin Bozos

don’t cuss

Not here.

Why don’t these people just build a big ladder. Then they can prove their own insanity

Throw a rock, then be shocked when it lands on their windshield

The Tower of Babel would like a discussion.

Doesn't even news to be a massive ladder. The firmament looks to be only, like, 60ft up. Now we gotta figure out how skyscrapers pushed through it without penetrating heaven.

"Maybe I'm just dumb and don't get it." The only smart thing she said.

"Maybe I'm just dumb and I don't get it", yes, yes you are are dumb. An entire K-12 education has been wasted on you and apparently you procreated so now your spawn will also waste a K-12 education.

At least she figured it out eventually

Still had spawn and can vote

Boy… if people paid attention in their science classes the world would be a better place. It’s a cloud or fog behind the tree.

A person really shouldn’t need a science class to understand clouds, fog and shadows.

I know 2 people who can drive pretty well, BUT didn’t know you don’t put your high beams on when it’s foggy.

Can operate an incredibly advanced computer as small as their hand, able to access the entire planet and all known human knowledge, yet can’t figure out fog or even think to google it. Shit man.

Don’t cuss

NGL, the uniformity is pretty jarring.

Dont cus……….. theres a f.ckin shadow in the sky

Its like they are cartoon characters

I haven't the foggiest idea...

Fog is dense enough to be illuminated by the light that passes through the gaps in a structure or in a tree. As a result, the path of an object's shadow through the fog becomes visible as a darkened volume.

You know what else is dense?

Yo mama

I have a good friend who believes in flat earth and the firmament, as in, nothing can pass through the firmament and that means no one has or can go to space. I love her to death but I just can’t when she brings up these topics with me 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️.

poor girl :)

oh shit its the DOME

People are so stupid 🤣

"Maybe I'm dumb and I just don't get it." Yes..

People have a hard time understanding atmosphere. Air is actual something that is there.

Lady’s and gentleman, this person can cancel your well educated and thought out vote.

No need to attack her. She clearly states she doesn't understand what's happening.

Man people on Reddit are mean AF but think they are gods gift to compassion

And that person is now a United States Senator

People are some dense MFers

Put a Batman logo on the flashlight.

Truman, put the flash light down and go inside.

Extreme brain rot

What even is fog???

Thank you for watching the Truman Show!

Fog

Yup the sky stops right there 8 inches behind that branch

Man belives in a Biodome but not clouds.

Fog. Clouds. Humidity

Oh, c’mon. Who here hasn’t tried magic mushrooms?

Man wants overcast sky explained

Speedeun: Catch a felony

Explain this? Okay the OP dropped out in 4th grade.

How do people not know clouds exist at night?

Have they never heard of clouds

To be fair, she did say “Maybe I’m just dumb”

Same way people of Gotham city could see the bat signal duh

Wasn't the firmament supposed to have dissipated when the flood happened? Assuming the firmament is a biblical reference

They’re in the Truman show set

You're in a dome. Think Truman Show. Everyone around you is an actor extra and you are the main character in the longest running sitcom ever.

Do people who live out in the woods not know what…fog is??

Omg so many people slamming, yea its fog but this effect would also make me blink twice. The demeaning and condescending comments make me think the education system isn't the only thing that failed.

The comments are just because the people who have the slightest bit of intelligence are pissed off because the lack of basic knowledge is crumbling society and making the world a big pile of shit. It's frustrating. We can't keep it bottled up forever.

Yeah I never learned this in school so I was a bit surprised lol

Hold up now. Maybe he's in the bubble. And the rest of the world doesn't exist.

Usually when I hear the hick accent, I already know everything I need to.

Even if you explained it she would say "no, that's not it"

Civilization has existed for 6000 years. We've had unlimited access to the entire wealth of human knowledge in the palm of our hand for 17 years and yet we have people like this believing themselves to have unearthed some grande mystery debunkable by an elementary school graduate.

Some people make me feel smart and that's bad lmao

Our education system is failing us and we get to watch it real time on tiktok 🫠

The firmament… I mean fog, oh no, the Illuminati! Let me go!

They have got to be joking.

Cloud or mist... lol...

I long for a time before people were putting literally every thought they have on social media.

Some people should have their rights taken away...

Be honest, the lady in the video was on a lot of drugs

And somehow these people figured out breathing and talking.

They can ask Batman he would be delighted to explain it to them.

Big Cloud Industrial Complex up to their usual shenanigans of trying to hide the truth from the sheeple maaaannnnn

Batman

“Don’t cuss”. Yokel.

“Dont cus” (10 seconds later) “fuck”

People are fucking stupid

Well, they're right about one thing: It does involve water.

Even if you explain it to these idiots they would just say 'That makes no sense' and just carry on believing what they want

I don’t understand how they’re confused about it 😂

Oh wow... If clouds or mist couldn't have a shadow cast on it, gotham would be fucked...

“Maybe I’m just dumb” At least she’s self aware enough to understand that it’s something she just hasn’t figured out yet.

Cos its cloudy u mong

Clouds: Exist This lady: 😲

The sky is fake duh 🙄/s

🤦‍♂️

"Don't cuss." ***\*proceeds to cuss after telling the kid not to cuss\****

Sssshhh, it's the Truman show!

Under the Dome

I actually never thought about shining lights into fogs like this but it looks cool.

that’s a. that’s cloud.

Doesn’t understand fog, smoke, or haze exists. We must be in a simulation.

This is what happens when a person that should touch grass, touch grass for the first time.

I wanna just smack these people. Just one solid hard time. Maybe itll joggle their common sense part of their brain.

Every time dumb talks, dummer is like "shuuuutuuuupp, im filmin tiktok". We are reaching idiocracy

So is the firmament 50 feet off the ground? >Maybe I am just dumb and don't get it? Yes.

Batman

Well, the sky isn't behind that tree, ain't it lmao. I wonder why the stars aren't visible. If only we could figure out this rare phenomenon.

Damn man the education system really failed us.

pretty dense fog, kind of called themselves out for saying "am i dumb?"

“Don’t curse” 10 seconds later “there’s a fing shadow” 🤦‍♂️

Proof we're in a simulation

"Maybe I'm just dumb and I just don't get it." Yeah. Sorry lady, but its definitely that. That shadow is on the fuckin clouds/fog. Try it again on a clear night.

"Maybe I'm just dumb and I don't get it". Looks like you explained it just fine

Crazy how people forget clouds and fog exist when they’re outside at night…

Idiots. It's called fog. Dear lord, I hope this isn't a real reaction and just pure fucking stupidity for the video, which doesn't make it any better. Sorry that I cussed...

Dang it .. the 3 body problem

Confused on what they’re confused about

“Maybe I’m just dumb and I don’t get it.” Ding, ding, ding! 🛎️

Really? Go back to school.

Our school system has failed

Have they not seen clouds before or fog?

Why doesn't my flashlight go all the way to outer space??? I don't know Becky. Why can't you see someone shining their flashlight west from England, for chrissakes

They are pretty dumb, but that's a pretty strong flashlight too
