A friend of mine emailed to a few hundred people a link to this video. He thought it was funny and as it was quite late on a friday afternoon I guess he thought it would be good to lighten the mood and provide a little humour ahead of the weekend.
However what I just don't get, nor understand is why, no how, does this video on YouTube get well over 1.4m views. Why do we as people, click onto something like this and watch. Why do we think it is funny, why can we not see through it.
Lets be real here, a guy was sitting at home, trying to find ideas for his YouTube channel and persauded his wife/sister/girlfriend, who happened to have blonde hair, that they would get well over 1 million hits on YouTube if she did this and for that they could earn over £10k on the advertising revenue share that the site now operates. She of course was happy with the idea and her £25 acting fee and off they went to the mall.
Now before you think I am just being a little harsh, think about it, why was there a Hi-Res camera pointing at the escalator, in place to catch the action, just as the most dumb blonde happened to walk the wrong way up. So who's dumb, the blonde, or us for watching, or YouTube for paying out on this. Mind you, I also have to ask, why did I not think of it !!!!
