The most cringingly awkward video you have ever seen.

[Dangit2019]

So, I was finding a stupid reaction video in the chat rooms, and I stumbled on this channel.

I want you to take any video from that channel. Pick one.

Now, try to watch it the whole way through nonstop without a single cringe. I'm almost certain it can't be done.

These have really always been the most unsettling types of videos for me on the Internet. 2 Girls 1 Cup, to me, is nothing compared to watching something, like, I don't know, 2 dudes singing the MLP theme song out loud in McDonald's, or a naive kid giving a brony presentation to (understandably) ignorant high school classmates, just begging for them to torture him for it. Just a big ol' mix of "this is why we can't have nice things" and "why the hell would you put this on the internet".

So, everyone, what's the most cringe-worthy, awkward video you've seen on the internet?

Cringingly awkward in a good way or bad way?

In a good way, just pick any given video from ElectricalBeast's Youtube channel. He's arguably the most British person on the entire planet.

Does that brony chap have a massive stutter or what?
I ended up watching the one with him wanting to be a better artist but that was more boring that cinge worthy.
This however...
Oh god it's so bad....

She's just so stupid it's unbelievable...

Oh, I got this.


It's basically like watching what would happen if someone tried to get me to do that job.

In fact, after watching that I'm pretty sure I would violently resist any attempt to get me in front of a camera. That might sound silly to anyone who is comfortable with public speaking, but i's comparable to asking an arachnophobe to get in a bathtub full of huntsman spiders.

There's another version out there, that I couldn't find, which is even worse. It has a bit where he turns to someone off camera and whispers "I'm so sorry."

Kids are such lovelies when it comes to music.

Ahahaha, yes they are. Similarly, have you seen this? Well, of course you have, but it's just great.

Time to be John Smith the unoriginal here. When I first stumbled upon this video...


...I was not quite sure how to feel.

That, and Boku no Pico, but lets not go there >.>

Haven't seen that video in a while.

What's sad is that I've done the school news a few times, and even I'm not that bad.

I'm guessing that by the time his speech started to falter, that was the point in time where he realised he was standing in front of his entire class extolling the "virtues" of My Little Pony. Good call, kid.

 

[jdogtwodolla]

Oh please, that science presentation one wasn't even that bad.

Just videos? I could give you a bunch of those (especially LP's), but there's a whole fucking movie that made me writhe in my seat because of the awkward protagonist.

It's called "I love you man" Starring Paul Rudd. I don't know, I just... SLAPPIN DA BASE!

 

[Berithil]

Wow. These really are some incredibly awkward videos.

I wouldn't really say that's awkward (well, maybe a little...). More along the lines of "What did I just watch?"

Anyways, here's my contribution. Made even more awkward due to me being a Christian...

Oh god.... I hate you so much right now....
I mean, its not like I haven't seen worse, but I honestly was not expecting that considering that there is no youtube warning for violent adult content. It hit my like a brick wall when... that happened.
I think that is less awkward and more disturbing.
I do actually think that its rather brilliant for a music video but some warning next time please!
Was this actually popular on the Internet at some point? I've never come across it.

I dunno man. I think it's kind of fucking awesome there's a woman like iJustine recording her plays. I didn't even know she existed until you posted that video.

Here she is winning a blops 2 match:
I don't know if she's any good because I don't even play FPS' any more, but women comprise almost 50% of the world population and may just save the gaming industry.

I'll give you this though: I think it would be very annoying to hear someone screaming into their mic. I guess it could be considered PSYOPS.

That's the thing, it actually looked like a neat animation video. Then it gets a bit weird... and then goes all the way to bonkersville. It came so out of left field, that it left me quite unsure how to feel In retrospect, the thumbnail kind of dropped a hint, but oh well.

I don't know how popular this video is or has been (Going by its 42 million + views I guess it's pretty well known at least), but I saw it here on the Escapist not too long ago *shrugs*

It is every bit as awkward as it is disturbing when your teacher looks over your shoulder during a... certain scene. Hilarious, but awkward.

That "Spongebob style" is God-tier awkward.

You know, there are people who act like that while trying to play video games. I should know...

because my mom is like that 0.o.

Seriously, she acts just like that when trying to play video games, and she doesn't get any money.

That's just it: a lot of people's parents are like that, but you don't see them trying to make a buck off of YouTube advertisers for it.
