So basically you're CNN
This is fantastic! :D
Please put a link to the actual news story
this really is art though
Hahahah this is so fucking dumb and genius at the same time
I love the irony of making a reporter "eat the onion."
I didn’t even think about that
That’s genius
I was about to say that. That was the perfect joke to end the video!
Exactly! And "Clive is a lie" was fantastic too.
This shouldn't even be possible
Truly the best news source out there
“Spears is a comedian....and serial pest” Australian news is in another level
Their news actually includes humour and sarcasm. Other countries just read what the teleprompter says.
I wouldn’t call that source “news” as much as I would call it “an old guy taking the piss of current events”
@@haiqal5333 nah our news is garbage lmao, american news is way more entertaining
Muhammad Haiqal barely any
Most is all Murdoch’s morning thoughts
Media Watch is excellent. It is basically a show that fact checks news stories and exposes bullshit.
I love working with Clive. He's kinda like, a normal person.
Dear god
"Normal"
The reason he probably said that is because a lot of photographers, especially from that region, are weird people
Chaos neutral
Ikr
Last time I was this early Lewis was hosting a Marxist Marathon.
Vishi Tetali the second long march
Legend has it that Lewis is still having people eat onions.
i think you mean harassing some young marxist boys
@@realbland my apologies for this inexcusable mistake.
hey, thats just starving in bread lines
*Tricks an award winning journalist into posing with an onion*
"It's good to work with a fellow professional" lmao
r/atetheonion
Hahahaha hes the aussie james bond. This man can infiltrate the White House
“I’ve got an onion” * *casually pulls onion out of pocket* *
@Trissvil kanna
Wait.......you guys don't carry onions around?
What if it was poisoned....
@@Cassius4 fuck off
I like the "I like to play with props" line
"Next up: I infiltrated North Korea and pranked Kim Jong-Un."
Edit: Apparantly this vid got recommended 4 times in 3 months, so that's cool i guess
Edit of the edit: As the kind Sir George Day just said, it got recommended AGAIN.
I
Ah. So that's why the whole dead thing came about
They made a movie about that called the interview
@@lemeeadams4455 Omg yeah i saw that, brutal death to kimmy.
The prank is he put beans inside his bed
“I’ve got an onion here”
*pulls onion out of pocket dimension*
Lol forget hammerspace, thats onionspace
he’s either vanilla ice or bruno bucciarati
The lady he got to hold the reflector is so confused. She’s just doing what he asks like “bruh what? Ight sure I guess why not@
This is evidence of how out of touch "journalists" are.
You can probably tell people to bite an onion in front of a pink wall today and tell them it's contemporary art and they'll believe you.
"Act like everything you have been told is a lie..."
Boy you mad lad.
Fake it till you make it is the American motto
So, in her defense... she wasn't really reporting the news. She was reporting a fluffy human-interest story. Just supposed to be a fun piece about people taking photos by a big pink wall and asking them why. Why would you fact check that?
Danny Ric would definitely approve the shoey.
I did a little digging and I can’t find the actual interview from abc. If someone has a source can they send it?
@@jamesvela Lol motherfucking fake news!
@@Ahmad_9134 how is this fake news?
6:00 No way anyone will pose with a damn onion because a "famous" person said so. No way. I'm in disbelief
I like how the people he photographed are all
narcissists
Really puts into perspective how ignorant the news is tbh
Honestly I found his "bullshit" argument why that wall is art actually convincing 😂 did not expect that to happen
So you're telling me that if you're a professional liar and you lie to someone there's a good chance they're going to believe you... wow, Blowing my mind.
The camera should be a clue. 🤣
Dude, you actually could be a photographer, ur doing a pretty good Job here, even tho ur just trolling them :'D
Haven't laughed this hard in a while, thanks for making my day :*
You'd think someone would have googled Clive Palmer
"act as if everything you've been told is a lie" "Clive is a lie" omg I love this
He got them to freaking shoey's! I'm so done. Love what you do man.
How much do you want to bet she thought she was playing him?
Love how the news lady has to look 45%+ to make eye contact
3:10 Holds it up to her full 4’1”
I'm subscribing just for your motivations. Continue to expose all media and make fools of them. Love that. They only lie anyways, your just adding to there huge pile of dung.
It’s like the modern day chasers war on everything
As an American, this is awesome!!! 😂😂
"OMG you're perfect" too perfect 🤔
I wonder if a photographer walked by and thought
1. That guy is an idiot for doing that.
2. I'm an idiot for not thinking of that.
I'm an Aussie, this is definitely something an Aussie would do
God bless you Lewis
From Germany, shout out to my Australian homies who just showed us how stupid America is.
I have the feeling you’re going to invade us this time
You mad cause your country’s just a little shit stain on earth
@@varrick9048 You are the one who is mad and everyone knows the only shit stain is the US
So you are talking about yourelf here?
I learned how to bullshit with people from being a salesman. This is amazing
"...getting fake stories on the news." So you're just a normal media producer, got it.
Looks like that the journalist ate the onion
Just pulls an onion out of his pocket and she still bites it
Anyone who believes this is just as guilty of not doing their research as the reporter.
I would of shat myself laughing telling them I’m a fat toad that sues people for calling them a dense Humpty Dumpty
2:10
"Act as if everything you've been told is a lie"
Nice foreshadowing.
You are a Legend!
It’d be more surprising if you tricked them into running a real story.
Ok, but his interview was actually fun to hear. He could be a major fake artist.
Anyone else watching during the among us craze just thinking that this guy would make a really good imposter?
Your pranks bring me a specific unique joy, please never change.
6:21 "good to work with a fellow professional"
The extreme desperation of being famus make people do anything.
It isn't about stupidity, it's about learning from a really young age that you need to take EVERY chance you get when you have no interest at all of doing a normal work.
The internet has been telling kids for so long now that everybody can be famous and by that rich and by that don't be forced to job so don't blame the young once, blame the parentes who never told them that work isn't a bad boring shit for ugly people.
If you have never ever been learned what a work gives you and the good feeling in you get at the end of your workday, it really isn't your fault
Watching this is so difficult, I'm getting secondhand embarrassment so hard and I don't even know who it's for, but I love it
This guy is the first funny interactive comedians
The news is not about reporting the truth it’s about views
I actually feel sorry for that journalist though...
Omg love this 😂😂😂
I would like to actually see this segment because it doesn't appear that they actually ran anything about you being a real photographer. The reporter also seemed to think poorly of you in the way that she reacted to your art opinions. This definitely feels... uh, exaggerated.
I rammed my knee in my face because I cringed so hard
I'm seriously starting to think Thanos wasn't ambitious enough
I love how Lewis just casually finessed a whole nation
How tf did she not realize it was a lie when he told her to pose with the oniom
This guy basically just wants to make it aware he’s better than everyone.
When u got the guy to yell😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
“Just a pink wall”
Lewis: bullshit mode activated
The emperor with no pants! 🤣
he did so fuckin well
I love this
Lol
*English literature mode activated *
Really funny haha, when you have questions as open ended as that you can really fuck with people lmao.
"Oh my gosh, you're perfect!"
Translation: "This guys an idiot! My audience will love this!"
Nah all it was, was him saying big words like “resonate” that made her think he knew what he was talking about. When he talked clearly and without any filler words like “uh” or “so um” any brain let would have believed.
Yet the moron held an onion as if it were an apple
@@BulbasaurNoBulbasaurNo dont forget the "like" i had some american exchange students in my class the way they constantly kept using "like" As a filler was painful
@@BulbasaurNoBulbasaurNo This is exactly why my job interviews always go well
She held the onion like an apple and sank her teeth in, man, america is truly a clown fiesta
As a photographer, I died at your assistant waving the reflector
It's obviously for moving the wind. The reflection distracts the wind and confuses it.
Not a photographer by any means, but waving that reflective fabric obviously made for lighting I lmao
@@kugelblitzingularity304 that's not how light works
@@froglv.2097 people out here thinking ;ight is like a fluid
Not a photographer in ANY way, what is the reflector for then?
"Clive is a lie" you directly told them...
That killled me
I would've taken it further:
"Act like you will believe anything" then immediately say "that's perfect, you're a natural!".
Blondes....
@@hamzasultan96 omg I laughed so hard
Yeah that shit made me die
This is top tier shitposting
Yes
Yes it is
Yes, yes it is
Yes, it truly is
Yes my lord, I fully agree with your statement on that matter.
I would be more impressed if you got an American journalist to air a true story.
Boom
B A R S
True
*_fake news_*
I mean they air really story's when it doesn't include stuff they can't exploit. Like the weather or that's it
Proof that an Australian accent can get anyone to do anything.
Such my sick mate
Huh it didn't work
@@habibabdulkrim2324 make sure to do it face to face
God help if you're like me introverted
Yeah it's even more impressive when you meet an Australian that isn't upside down
The one who gets the total world domination sure is going to be Australian
GotSold ForRP I would never have imagined this would be true till I saw this
“I like Clive because he’s just a normal guy”
Only if they knew
He had no clue how right he was...
No clue
3:45
"Act as if everything you've been told is a lie." "Clive is a lie" this man flat out told them.
"I tricked a mainstream news network" is like an average Tuesday for this guy.
Keemosen God, not guy
Keemosen that’s like saying you banged Britney Spears....had you pulled that off in the late 90s/early 2000s it would’ve been quite braggable nowadays it’s just okay
Being tricked is an average Tuesday for the mainstream news networks
Dont let this distract from the fact that I post videos of eggs every day
It's an average Tuesday for anyone
The way he described the pink wall is literally how I do every English and History assignment in school LOL
Me when I trow big words at my teacher so she thinks I'm dep but i do it so she is less likely to write me up for sleeping in class
Exact
that's coz art is bullshit. Better you bullshit, the better you do.
I bet her news camera men cringed when they saw his camera
Ahahahah definitely
size matters
@@userPrehistoricman that's what she said
UNTAMEABLE WOLFY XDXDXDXXD HAHHAHAHAHA YOU ARE SO FUNNY SO ORGINAAL HAHAHAHHA FUNNNNNYYYYY JOOOOOOKE HHAHAHAHA YOU GOT ME KILLED LOLOLOLOLOLOL HAHAHHAAHHA SOOOOOOOO FUNNNNNNNYY

He used an onion...i really hope thats a clever play on "the onion"
No its a play on one of our conservative prime ministers that during the run up to an election ate an onion to show how tough he was.Thank god he was knifed by his own
@@russe19642 lol what a jokester 😂😂
ONN
@@russe19642 wholesome prank on a prime minister
She literally ate the onion.
This is beyond next level trolling, this is prestige trolling.
coolkid “ate the onion” is a term used when someone falls for the sarcasm of “the onion” a fake news website
@@Whatismusic123 so not literally but figuratively
@@Whatismusic123 Satire news website*
Deadlokked it’s still fake though
@@Whatismusic123 yes but that's what satire is, by calling it "fake news" you invoke the social presupposition that it is written with the intent to mislead rather than entertain.
- So what do you do for a living?
- I'm an Instagram model. How about you?
- I'm a general in Call of Duty
Nice
Recycled but funny.
Good one!!! :D :D :D
Ha I am a General in Roblox D-Day (JK I’m actually a Corporal but for the sake of the meme yes)
Surely not General Shephard
When you’re labeled as a serial pest in your country you are an absolute legend
That's honestly such an honor though. You're that much of a big deal to them that they have to give you a label like _that._ That's an impressive title.
For real, not anything malicious such as “danger to society” but then stopping at “pest” is perfect 😂
@@nicolasa.3192 *honour
@@genericusername4206 No, it's spelled honor my guy. No "U"

“And a Serial pest”, I mean they’re not wrong are they?

"Why don't you trust the mainstream media?"
The mainstream media:
"Act as though everything you've been told is a lie." LOL You're killing it Lewis, come to Austin, TX!
Stay away from texas Lewis its not worth it
L Herbert Silk Yeah most of the people out here in Houston are wack.
He almost killed me 🤣
I was dying laughing.
"Clive is a lie"
@@liamherbertsilk2904 What're you talking about? I've lived all over the US due to army parents and Texas by far is the best place. The people are nice, the food is great, the weather is nice other than it getting hot. My advice, stay away from California people suck there!! California's are actually ruining Austin tbh.
A guy who failed High School just schooled a Harvard Masters graduate.
Having a Masters in journalism is like receiving an A in prevocational maths
Jasmine Taylor so true, I hate those who make fun of qualified degrees. It’s not really easy to get them overnight.
@@DarkF4lcon Nah I am working on my degree and my teachers sometimes have no ideas how it really works.
Learn by books and real live, the degree is only a status / career help.
Siffilus Likewise. You learn a lot during a degree though. Either by yourself or with the help of someone else. A degree is learning experience by its own self.
@@DarkF4lcon Yeah, but keep in mind you are competing with those who already work and that you have to bring a benefot to a company.
I think people tend to forget that.
"Could you just say, Clive is a lie?"
: *C l i v e i s a l i e*
2:12
He literally TOLD the girl she was being tricked. You did not have to do her like that.
@TheSilentBang half?!? Bro you seriously overestimate our intelligence......
@TheSilentBang yeah id say 75% of us are absolute fucking dumbasses
A puddle is deep to the vapid
Claive is a lie
I watched this live. I’ve never watched abc anything. But when flipping through channels, saw “up next! Interview with ‘Clive Palmer’!” I saw your face, looked at my dog and said. *This’ll go well*
This comment describes a moment before a amazing event
This is where inspiration and all good ideas come from
Do you know anyone who clipped it?
I need the clip. Lewis chose a really random cut to show us of it. Would have been better when they said clive Palmer or something.
Dropping a comment just in case a link comes around. You're one lucky SOB, OP!
Lol what’s the bet the cameraman knew it was bull due to the tiny camera, but was just not in the mood to tell the journalist. 6:52 be like I can’t be bothered with this onion biting anymore.
Her crew was far more interested in seeing how this goes if they kept quiet. 😂😂
This madlad rolled a D20 for his charisma stat and got a 45.
Yachter LOL
That’s a +17
Actually insane.
And clearly he is a bard with expertise in deception
How high is your charisma
Spears : yes
Nat 20 but with his charisma bonus plus his natural bonuses it ended up being a 50
"Act like everything you've been told is a lie"
Everyone got played like a god damn fiddle
Nice pfp, nice username, nice meme, *nice* likes
hey mista to me this comment was posted 4 weeks ago

The word four has four letters in it
imagine being scared of the number 4
The black boom guy wasn't buying it, just nervously looking sideways
The only adult in the room
Yea, he knew what was up. I love that he just goes with it.
I think the smirk on his face was due to the closeness of the two
He knew what was up but he also knew how funny it was
Yup, i think that's why he distanced himself from her "photoshoot". Legend!
How are people being fooled by someone using a vlogging camera to take "professional" pictures?
Welcome to america
@Johan Jacobs they not they're
@Johan Jacobs they are wanna be influencers??? That's not correct
@Johan Jacobs and if you really wanted your comment to be in English it would be "they all want to be Instagram influencers, that should be all you need to solve your problem."
@Johan Jacobs saying I'm talking ebonics yet you're over here not even using real words PROPERLY! Also that whole talking English and not ebonics was kind of uncalled for..
Journalist: *takes a bite of the onion like an apple*
Lewis Spears: "You're not a clown you are the entire circus"
Why are there no replies
because nobody's sure how to eat it properly (:

I like how the reporter doesn't even question that onion in his pocket
Why are you looking through the comments when you could be watching Spears VS America? Shame on you.
Because my attention span is shorter than a brine shrimp.
Sir Apple THIS
Because I need $$$$. Will you give me $$$$?
already streamed it bitch that's why
@@hiropon2985 That's the way! good stuff
I get the feeling that the camera crew knew it was bullshit.
Oh absolutely, but they aren't paid enough to get rid of a story just because of a hunch, therefore they still take the shots
They work with cameras so they should’ve known his wasn’t professional grade
@@shamusday Like I said, they absolutely did, but they wouldn't risk their job over telling the reporter not to interview the person based off of a hunch. It's not worth the trouble
Just look at the dude holding the mic at 5:32 and tell me that's not the face of a man smelling grade A bullshit. Seriously, to think they let such impressionable morons be reporters while everyone around them seems to have caught on is ridiculous. Guess that Harvard degree didn't do much for her intuition.
Here is the full story. It was about Matty Mo and yes this guy made it on, but he was just *lucky* to get on this piece. This RUclips video is the hoax itself.
abcnews.go.com/Nightline/video/meet-matty-mo-famous-artist-youve-heard-65739552
I'll be honest if someone whipped out a random onion n asked me to bite it for a photo, I would do it just out of curiosity
This is how you get roofied lol
“I failed Highschool”
This man clearly nailed drama class. XD
Dude prolly failed cuz he trolled everyone
It’s insane how he lies with such confidence and just comes up with things to say on the spot. Wtf is this sorcery?
@@ghgdjjx5929 improv. I'm awful at it but ppl who are, are very impressive
