Candid Camera Gold: No-Fail Bowling

[@1414141x]

This clip must be as old as me (68) and it got me howling. It just shows how competitive people can be even with family. The last guys face gradually turning from laughter and joy to incredulity and horror was fantastic.

[@conniedecarolis3173]

I miss the innocence of this kind of fun on TV.

[@miltonsmith974]

My family always watched this show when I was a little kid. Brings back great memories. How quickly a lifetime passes by.

[@RickyO-e5g]

Realized a short time ago how fast time has gone by. Born in 62. Became a grandfather at 60. I miss everything and everyone of my family members that passed. Everything has changed . It's all new faces and places. A new era a new chapter in life. What a party!

[@Paladin70]

We never missed this show and I actually remember watching this episode as a kid and can still hear Mom and Dad laughing hysterically, RIP.

Candid Camera really consisted of clinical psychology experiments, but with clever, funny twists to transform them into entertainment.

[@christopherwall444]

Funny! 'leave the kitchen and the sewing circle'...as easy as baking a cake.....different times for sure

[@mariancowles3042]

This was the kind of good, clean, entertaining fun, we had on TV at night. No violence, filth, pornography, and vile trash. No wonder why society is so messed up now. If only they could bring back these good days.

Thankfully we have KZbin! Even though these days it's become ridiculously moderate and hand-holding. Still, I'm with you all the way and I'm only 59 haha.

[@apbadogs]

The days of manual score keeping. I graduated HS in 1984 and we actually would go bowling in gym class and had a test on keeping score. I miss those days.

[@purrple.shadows]

One of the best pranks ever.

[@Minpb-m2x]

The best part is that most of the time, they’re not even hitting the head pin and still ending up with a strike. That’s why their partners are in such disbelief.😁

[@mikelabor7688]

I haven't laughed like this in months. Thanks for posting! It was from another world. Ours is not free to enjoy good fun.

[@MJ-we9vu]

Yeah, a family could live on one salary and afford to buy a house, a car and send their kids to college. The kids had someone at home to take care of them and raise them responsibly instead of leaving them with strangers in a day care. Your grandparents and aunts and uncles probably lived within walking distance of your house. How absolutely terrible and oppressive, right?

[@rbanerjee605]

@@MJ-we9vu Its social structures and expectations. The individual people weren't trying to be oppressive I'm sure but you'll agree it did prevent women from being able to achieve equal things to some men.

[@TXDude]

I loved Candid Camera. Yeah, it was cheesy and mild but it was all about expressions.

[@stonerrocky]

Loved this show. I always thought it would be fun to get a guy trying to wash his hands in the men's room with those automatic faucets. Maybe having 4 lined up and when he would go to wash his hands on a given faucet, it would not work but instead activate another faucet instead. Maybe watch him switch the working faucet, but nothing. Another faucet activates instead.

[@ChuckyD]

Very funny! Hope they told them all it was a gag afterwards or those poor people would scratching their heads to this day! 😂

There was another bowling prank where the pins would all shatter as if they were made of glass as soon as they were struck.

[@young1939]

Cruel, but so funny. 😂😂😂

[@Hereford1642]

Not cruel. Not cruel at all. Nobody was intimidated or scared or worried about their safety at all. Just their bowling score. I do wish they had microphones to catch what the people were saying though.

I was watching Celebrity Bowling recently and the host and his bowling sidekick said you can't get a strike without hitting the headpin. Not true. I saw a strike that just missed the headpin put the rest fell, taking the headpin with it. That said, the way these pins are falling defy science.

Thank you for your videos. We can't find hope and peace in this world but there is Someone that can give us true hope and peace. Because he Loved us: John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Because of his Grace: Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Because of Hope: Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
