Videos filmed at the team 10 house make it out to be a prank warzone where no one is
safe.
At the beginning of every one of his vlogs, jake paul does a prank.
Its extremely entertaining to watch for all the tweens that subscribe to the members of
team 10.
But often times when watching their videos, I would think to myself, this is too good
to be true.
The spontaneity of the pranks…the dramatization and over the top reactions.
I mean, is their life really like that?
Or Is it all for views.
In the 4th part of Shane Dawson’s documentary, Nick Crompton just revealed that Team 10 pranks
are fake, and I’m going to give you proof, right now on IO.
Welcome back to Inform Overload, I’m charlotte Dobre.

Nick Crompton is the former COO of team ten, meaning he knows about everything that happens
behind the scenes at the team 10 house.
But while he was being interviewed by Shane dawson, he revealed that its all fake.
He added that its difficult to say that it’s fake when theres still loads of young kids
watching and enjoying it, and he doesn’t want to be responsible for ruining that whole
thing.
I mean, when you think about it, its not that surprising.
Real life is friggin boring.
It is.
That’s why we have entertainment, its why we have movies and youtube.
When it comes down to it, youtubers are actors.
They have control over every single second of footage they choose to put on the internet.
Yeah the pranks might be improvised in some cases, but they people involved likely know
whats going to happen.
And then The pranks are probably done in more than one take and then the best take is cut
into the final video.
So after hearing this, I did a little digging.
Check out this clip of jake paul throwing a bucket of water on his mom as a prank.
But, his mother was actually expecting the water to be dumped on her.
How do I know this?
She reacted to the water before it even hit her.
Roll the clip.
Show 1-1:06 seconds.
See that?
So here’s where this gets interesting though.
If the pranks at the team 10 house are stage, This means that when the Martinez twins left
team 10 because they claimed that they were being bullied by jake, they lied.
They might have been getting verbally bullied, but the whole schpeil about jake making their
life a living hell because they were afraid to wake up in the morning…that’s not true,
because they were in on the pranks.
And another bombshell, jake let them lie to everyone.
He could have easily just come out and said that the Martinez twins were in on the pranks,
but he didn’t.
Why?
Because he didn’t want to let everyone know that the pranks at the team 10 house were
fake.
I mean are kids going to watch team 10 videos now that they know that everything is dramatized?
People faking pranks on youtube is not a new thing.
Its something that people have always liked watching.
It first became popular on vine, and guess where people like jake and logan paul got
their start?
Vine’s 6 second videos were the perfect length for pranks and stunts.
And prank videos on youtube also became extremely popular.
If you search youtube for prank, it gets around 33 million search results.
One of the most popular videos has over 110 million views.
Pick up artist pranks are also extremely popular on youtube because they were often offensive
or cruel.
Spoiler alert, pick up artist pranks are often staged and youtubers hired actors or asked
their friends to play the part of the unsuspecting girl.
Here’s a little industry secret whenever you pull a prank on an unsuspecting member
of the public, in order to use their likeness, aka their face and reaction, you have to get
their permission.
Usually you get them to sign a contract, and sometimes even pay them.
Because in the end, you are making money on their face and their reaction.
That person can come around and sue you for damages because you’re profiting off their
face without their permission.
A prank without a reaction is not as interesting.
I mean, its barely a prank at all.
The whole point if it is to see the persons face and how surprised or shocked they are.
So how do team 10 and other youtubers get around this?
They employ people, actors essentially, that sign contracts, so that they can endlessly
upload endless videos of their reactions without having to get permission every single time.
Anyways guysn that’s all I have for you on that, did you guys know that jake paul
and team 10 fake their pranks?
