Waltermitty Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I call Fake, but it's a funny idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sperman Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Definitely fake. Filmed at a local used car lot and the closed Philip Morris plant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 I agree that it's a setup. Think of the liability issues if it weren't. But it's still funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Smith Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 I did some checking and it's looking like it was real. Everyone was in on it except the salesman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppa Bear Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Many of the reactions you see from the salesman are real, he actually went for a similar test drive just to get those reactions to include the calling the cops statement. You will notice that you cannot get a good look inside the car during the longer shots so the absence of the salesman is not noticed. Apparently they spent the entire day getting all of the shots right to create the final video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Apparently they spent the entire day getting all of the shots right to create the final video. That makes complete sense. I was convinced that it was fake because of the liability issues without ever considering that the salesman only had to be in the car during the closeups. In all the distance shots, there could be a dummy or no one at all. It shows how easy it is to believe what you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
