Crazy Religious Door-Knockers

Post by AK_Jedi »

Sorta inspired by the mormon door-knocker thread.

In this video, a couple religious door-knockers wake up some guys at their house. They break out the video cameras, and start throwing water balloons at them. (not the most clever of responses, but funny nonetheless). The religious nut-jobs go absolutely apeshit on them. I have never seen someone get that mad over water balloons.

8 Am on a Saturday morning (did I hear that correctly, Saturday morning?) I would throw water balloons two, but having a second floor balcony I could bonb them from overhead or hit them with the supersoakers.

I especially love how the woman went from calling them "Sir" to "You're going to hell!"

Kind of a bad way to test one's faith, but telling nevertheless. One of the first words out of their mouths was a curse word. It wasn't like the umpteen cameras they had out there wasn't a clue that they were being filmed either. They should have considered turning the other cheek and leaving.

Maybe a better plan would have been to bombard them from on high putting the filmakers at less risk of bodily harm.

That video doesn't seem realistic to me. Seems like the whole thing was an act. IMO

They barely even got them wet. I could have done better.

I agree. It did seem really set up to me. The fact that they had the waterbaloons, as well as 2 seperate cameras all ready to go. Plus, I've had Christards of every stripe come to my door and none of them ever called me "brother".

That's another good point. IF it were that early in the morning, they must have cameras and water ballons ready to go every morning. :roll:

And true, they wouldn't say "brother", . . . nor would they cuss like sailors just because they're getting water balloons thrown at them. Looking at the footage, it doesn't even LOOK like it's early in the morning.

In its defense, early in the video the guy was saying that they are here again. Preperations could have been made.


Really though, people who do door to door tend not to do the "umm...ahhh" thing, as they would have had much more practice on their lines. Put my vote for fake.
