"Sm0king In Front Of Cops Prank" meets an officer who barely blinks
The CamsBanter short passed half a million views in twelve hours, and its comments are mostly about the policeman's calm and how much he reminds viewers of a Druski skit.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 795,379 views a day, 11 times a normal first day on this channel (75,126).
Sm0king In Front Of Cops Prank!🤣
The joke in the title is simple: light up in plain sight of the police and see what happens. What viewers keep talking about is what doesn't happen. CamsBanter's "Sm0king In Front Of Cops Prank!🤣" passed half a million views within twelve hours, roughly ten times the pace of a usual first day on the channel.
CamsBanter is a clips channel whose about text promises "funny and unexpected moments," and the title does not say who filmed this one. It also does not say what was actually being smoked. The comments have plenty of guesses, and one popular thread asks why officers always assume it is weed.
The officer is the star of the replies. Commenters call him chill, repeat a joke that the whole thing "ain't worth the paperwork," and several say the scene could pass for a Druski skit, with the officer cast as Druski's uncle. The comments arrived about five times faster than on a usual first day.
The rest of the feed is busy too. Two other shorts crossed a million views on the same day: "''You Grabbed Her'' Is Crazy💀" from late September and "Bro's Girl Even Laughed🤣," posted only three days earlier. The channel added about 7,000 subscribers over the week.
