Candid Camera Gold: Owl in the Mirror

[@jglow8337]

I swear...this is the last one I'm gonna watch!

[@fredgervinm.p.3315]

Moderation my friend. Remember when you had to wait till next week to see, what are they going to do now? Anticipation, excitement, Mom would make popcorn in a skillet. Great memories...

[@tivvy9708]

Wow, what a different time, guy's having a haircut and a smoke at the same time.

[@shivasirons6159]

Ikr?

[@Paladin70]

People smoked almost EVERYWHERE back then, on airplanes, in your hospital room, hospital and doctor’s office waiting rooms, just about everywhere but school (unless you were a teacher) and church. Heck, I even remember as a kid in the 50s our doctor smoking while he was consulting with us in his office!

[@adamhuffman3354]

Yea back then smoking was really good for you!

[@rotunda57]

@@Paladin70 I remember a judge having a big cigar while on the bench. And there was a spittoon on the floor nearby.

I was a kid growing up in the 50’s & 60’s. It was common knowledge (at least to me) that cigarettes caused cancer, emphysema and heart disease. Even smokers referred to them as cancer sticks and coffin nails. Tobacco companies gave free cigarettes to actors so they would be seen smoking in movies and TV programs. There was no limitation on cigarette advertising in magazines, TV, etc. Any one could buy cigarettes from vending machines. Children were given packs of candy cigarettes so they could pretend to smoke like their parents. I recall nagging my father to quit smoking but he was unable to quit. He died at 61 years of age of lung cancer. In his last couple days, he said that he had gambled and lost. I believe people should have the freedom to smoke if they want but I am really glad now not having to deal with second hand smoke in public places.

This has to be one of the best yet!

[@carrolltucker]

YES agree 100%

[@kathyh4804]

That was one of the BEST! I thought that poor guy was going to have a heart attack though!!!!😂

[@AmazingPhilippines1]

Thanks for the laughs here in the Philippines.

[@NihonKaikan]

Ewwwww

[@MikeB0001]

That's a fantastic one Peter!🤣🤣

[@johnshields6852]

Born in 1960 in Boston I remember I loved this as a kid, today's cameras everywhere world is so alien to me, I don't like it, no privacy, everyone's got their own videos, it's so weird. But this show was a classic, it was hugely popular. Thank you, I'd forgotten about it, it's been 50 something years since I've seen this, I'm having a flashback.

[@doloresdemar2347]

I was born in 1958 Philly and this show had me laughing 😂 as a child 😊 I loved the intro song ❤

[@shivasirons6159]

Wow! People smoked anywhere!

[@dollyandsandy]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for posting this!!!! We have looked online for this skit for years!!! This was the skit my dad remembers from the originals, and has always talked about. At last we've gotten to see it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@breckrichardson390]

Hahaha! These are indeed gold. So ingenious.

[@Kamase318]

Alan Funt's New York accent. 💕💕

[@missymitekite]

So clever and funny! Love this!

[@lynettepalecek3141]

Lol. That was quite a trick with the two way mirror showing the owl 🦉 and the woman.

[@lipsaver]

Class. Great

[@psw4763]

Very clever and funny.

[@DwayneSims-j5j]

You can just see the wheels turning in this guy's head @2:15- friggin' hilarious!😳

[@shivasirons6159]

" well sir perhaps its the cigarette smoke thats making it look like an owl".

[@lisalovessummertime8453]

Oh so hilarious the guy is the only one seeing an owl in the mirror...lol. 🦉😂👍

[@philipcox5041]

Very enjoyable

[@andrewst9797]

That was the best episode of CC I have seen

[@docmalthus]

If they did that gag now the customer would pull a handgun and empty the clip in the mirror.

[@froggiechar]

I'm so glad I found this and subscribed! Candid Camera was my favorite show to watch, when I was a teen! Thank you for sharing! Peace, Charles

[@fredgervinm.p.3315]

I have shared this with so many folks our age and the smiles, laughter and stories... It is gold !

[@HicksterTexan]

That was fantastic

[@fredgervinm.p.3315]

The comments are equally entertaining.

[@karinberryman2009]

These days the kinds of things we’re being told to believe are even crazier than the Candid Camera pranks they played on their unsuspecting victims.

[@sugarpacketchad]

Love It!🤠

[@miamidolphinsfan]

too funny LOLOLOLOL

[@SarahDigsHockey]

Did everybody smoke back then?

[@jg769]

Pretty much! The armrest on airplanes had built-in ashtrays, every house had an ashtray and a cigarette lighter on the coffee table. I’m glad those days are gone.

[@BarneyHefner]

Just those over 13

[@thestork2210]

Please post the lady with the monkey on the hat, and the kid guarding the man's bicycle clips. I looked for these all over the web but in vain.

[@MissLachine]

😂😂

[@jonathansabinvarietyfilms]

Did he really say "cut the owl's hair"? 😅

[@mofassy]

When smoking was a chic

[@PlanetRockJesus]

He ended up offing himself because he thought he was losing his mind. His family then sued Candid Camera for 20 million bucks and WON. LOL! Of course this is not true. This reminds me of the video where the guy in line at a convenience store keeps seeing "death" standing behind him in line on the security monitor, but when he turns around, it's just a farmer looking guy who winks at him. The guy is visibly shaken.

[@Trigger_000]

*Most of the people in this episode are dead now.*

[@bjlyon615]

Kinda cruel if you ask me.
