- (dude) I love looking at you.
- Whoa, whoa!
Whoa!
I feel like I should cover up the camera right now.

- (dude) Hi, stranger.
- What the hell?
- (dude) Hi, stranger.
- Whoa, I already don't like this at all.
- (dude) Hi, stranger. - I've seen this.
This is great.
- (dude) It's been a while.
- Uh...
- (dude) I've missed you. - Oh god.
This is so weird.
- (dude) It's okay. - No, it's not.
- (dude) You can look at my butt. - I'm not going to.
- (dude) It's okay. You can look at my butt.
- Nah, bro, I'm good.
- (dude) You can look at my butt.
- I'm looking at his butt.
- I'm looking at it.
Don't even stress about it, homie.
- (dude) I feel like I can really be vulnerable around you.
- (laughing incredulously)
- (dude) Do you like this tree I made?
- What?
- (dude) Cool, right?
- They're pretty, bro. They're pretty.
- (dude) I thought it was cool.
- It's so weird because you can't not look away.
It's just... what's going to happen next?
- What's the circling? (giggling)
- (dude) Wow, check out the sunset. - Oh my gosh!
This is so weird.
- (dude) It's so nice to stop and take all this in.
- (sighing) So romantic.
- This is equally as funny as it is terrifying to me right now.
- (dude) It makes you enjoy being alive.
Being with you.
I love looking at you. - Okay.
Well, you can't see me.
- (dude) I love looking at you.
- Whoa, whoa!
Whoa!
I feel like I should cover up the camera right now.
- (dude) I want to remember all of your shapes.
- What the [bleep]?!
Bruh!
- (uncomfortably) Okaaaaay.
- He's drawing me.
- This is super uncomfortable.
- (dude) Beautiful. - (laughing)
I hate it.
- How long is this video? (laughing)
- (dude) I've been thinking about you a lot lately.
- He's staring into my soul.
- (dude) I see you trying to do so many things at once,
worrying about a decision you made,
or worried that you said the wrong thing to someone.
You're so hard on yourself. - That's true.
I am pretty hard on myself.
- (dude) But you're wonderful. - Oh thanks.
- (dude) And worthy of being loved.
You really are. - Thank you.
- (dude) You just have to let yourself believe it.
- I feel really being loved.
- (dude) You just have to let yourself believe it.
- He's seducing me, isn't he?
- (dude) Well, I know you're really busy and you probably have to go
but I'm glad I got to see you for a minute.
- Yeah, this is creepy.
- (dude) I love you.
- I just met you, man!
- Mmm, mwah! Super.
It's great.
- It went from creepy to more nice.
I love him too.
- It went from being extremely uncomfortable
to putting me in a very relaxed, comfortable state.
- That was so uncomfortable, but I can't stop laughing.
- That is by far the strangest thing I've ever seen here--
or anywhere, for that matter.
- What the hell was that?! (laughing)
I have never seen anything about this.
Is this even a trend?
- (FBE) So after this video came out, it became extremely popular
and many people have decided to make fan art for it.
- Oh no.
- Stop!
- Oh god. (laughing)
- (FBE) So here's how some people decided to take this.
- (laughing nervously)
It's so weird!
Why is this what our world has become?
- "Hi, stranger."
This is going to be the pickup line of the year.
- "A friend at work just sent me that."
Some of these are really good.
- Why are people drawing this?
This-- ugh, it's so weird.
It's SO weird.
- "A friend at work just sent me this."
"Hi, stranger."
Okay, that one's pretty funny.
Why would you go and fricking make your own fan art?
That's just weird, dude.
Make fan art for other things,
not for the strangest things on the internet.
- (FBE) This was a short film called Hi Stranger.
- High Stranger, okay.
- (FBE) So how would you describe this video?
- Uh, creepy and weird
because it's just a naked thing telling you that you can look at its butt
and then proceeding to just romantically talk to you.
- It's a creepy guy verbally addressing you
on how beautiful you are.
- It's pretty unique.
If I have to say, in one word, it's unique.
- Very weird, dude.
Very creepy.
It's like some weird ASMR video.
He's like, "(softly) Hi!"
Like, no, dude, stop.
- It made me feel super uncomfortable.
He was talking straight to me
and he was trying to look in my soul and I got really scared.
- I don't feel like it was a stranger
because I felt like we knew each other.
There was a little bit of a connection there.
I felt it.
- It's hella creative.
It's like nothing you've seen.
It's not really trying to make you laugh.
It's trying to put you in this uncomfortable position
and doing so makes you laugh.
- (FBE) So can you do an impression of the character for us?
- Oh no.
Hi, stranger.
- (coyly) Hey, stranger.
- (flirtatiously) Hey, stranger.
(clicking tongue)
- (flirtatiously) How was your day?
You look beautiful, baby girl. (cracking up)
- You've been so busy.
I just really love looking at your face.
It makes me want to draw you.
- (whispering) Hi, stranger!
(normally) It feels uncomfortable doing it, dude.
- (FBE) So the video has been posted a lot on Facebook,
with people encouraging you to tag a friend and say nothing,
so why do you think that is?
- Um, because your friend will be confused.
- That's where the comedy's at, you know,
because it wasn't funny until I sent it to my homie.
I'm not into him in any way,
but it's just funny to [bleep] around with my homie like that.
- It's fun to screw with your friends like that.
Just to make them sit there and watch something like that
with no warning, it's a little like, "Wait, what?
Why did they send this to me?"
- We're constantly looking for things to make our friends uncomfortable
because it's freaking hilarious,
especially if you're sitting there in the same room
and you just tag them and he doesn't say anything.
He's watching it and you're just looking at him
and then he just looks up from watching that video
and you're just staring at him with a weird smile.
Dude, that's fricking weird.
That'd be funny as hell though.
I might just do that.
- It's such a weird thing to send to your friend.
I mean, I send my friends the weirdest videos
and this is the stuff, the exact stuff I would send them,
with no context.
Just be like, "Hey, just want to remind you...
(whispering) I love you."
- (FBE) Well, many people who watch this video find it creepy,
but there are others who actually find the video
to be quite soothing. - (snorting)
Pffft! That's a joke, right?
- (FBE) The creator of this video has said that she wanted to create
a space for intimacy and that she was inspired
by spirituality and meditation.
So what do you think?
Is it creepy or soothing?
- I'm going to have to go with creepy.
If that's what meditation gets you, I'm not gonna meditate.
- Creepy but I can see how some people find this soothing.
- This is creepy right here.
This is where the video is at.
There's so many other ways to make a very sensual video.
- Knowing that it's a short film, and that she had an intention behind it,
I want to respect it, but it's just like...
it was a little too invasive.
- At the start, I was like, "No! Uncomfortable, creepy, don't like it."
Now I'm like...
It's an in-between.
- At first, it's really creepy.
If you let the video take over and almost just get immersed within it,
it's a really calming thing.
It is almost like meditation.
- (FBE) So finally, are you going to share this video
with someone when you leave with no context?
- Sure, why not?
I'll send it in my cheer group chat and be like, "Guys, look at this video."
- Totally.
I am absolutely sending this to all my friends,
just so they can feel my pain.
- I would.
I'd be surprised if they haven't seen it yet.
Apparently, I feel like I'm the last one on the boat
to have never seen it.
- 100%, I'm going to send that to everyone I know
because no one sent this to me.
So apparently my little circle of friends has no knowledge of this,
so you best believe it's going to be shared.
- (coyly) Hi, stranger.
Thanks for watching this episode of Teens React.
- Subscribe for new episodes... almost every day.
- Thanks for watching, stranger. Bye.
- Hey, what's up, everyone?
It's Dallen here from FBE.
Thank you so much for watching this very strange episode of Teens React.
Do you have any other crazy videos that you want the teens
to react to next time?
Let us know down in the comments, guys! Bye.
