Fun starts at 8:00.
So up to this point one guy ate an egg off a dusty bin lid, threw up, another guy ate the same egg off the street, then someone had a brush with mayonnaise and his friends leg hair on it applied to his teeth like a toothbrush, then someone face plants in to a mixture of flour and vacuum dust.
That's all fine and above board, nobody bats an eyelid.
But at 8mins, when the suggestion of being temporarily bald comes up, nervous laughter and an instant shrug of "nah not doing that c'mon lol who even would consider it".
Not only this, but when one guy says hes considering it, they actually try to talk him out of it. It's that bad, that on a video where they're trying to do crazier and extreme things to out do each other in a desperate attempt at getting views, they still think baldness is just too damn far. Even though it's temporary.
And the cherry on top- it's such an outrageous dare, such a disgusting thing to do, that for one single dare they'll give him the whole competition without question. Judging from the point system it seems like it should take 3-4 dares. Also because of the severity of the dare, they won't even do a "loser dare" for last place, and they then name that date after the guy who did it as "Derek Day" to commemorate his incredible sacrifice on said day. Like a war hero.
All the other hallmarks of YouTube bald prank videos are there, George Costanza reference, female shock reactions, girlfriends world crumbling reaction, etc.
But the one thing that got to me about this particular video wasn't in the video itself, it was this f*****g comment.
And by the way I am aware that the only people who regularly watch these videos are 12 year old girls or grown men that are all kinds of on the spectrum, but regardless, part of the fleeting ignorance I feel is somewhat reflected in a lot of people's attitudes.
Sure people may not express it in such a retarded manner but it is at the core of their reasoning:
When I watched Derek going bald I felt so motivated cause we knew even it was cut now eventually it will grow long again.. thats its how every person spirit should have, if you feeling down for not getting what you wanted, you should never give up , never afraid of obstacle and keep pushing on to the top! maybe I went too far, btw
I don't quite know where to start or how to sum up how baffled and pissed off this makes me, all in one ball.
Someone temporarily losing their hair but knowing it'll be back, makes this person motivated? What then is their reaction to actual bald guys?
It's also almost like if you're motivated enough and inspiring enough you won't let hair loss get in your way. It has a touch of that "baldness is your fault" fullhead meme we all love.
Or maybe I'm being negative, and not motivational enough, after all it would explain why I'm just letting my hair fall out.
I'm clearly done for, but you guys can take more from this than a unmotivated baldite like me, and thats is how every persons spirit should have, never give up, never afraid of obstacle and keep pushing on to the top - Hair Loss Cure 2018.
