Candid Camera Gold: Pool Problems

[@LloydRich-k4o]

Grew up in the 60'S way better time than now!

[@coz7891]

Interesting to see how neatly dressed everyone was back in the day.

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

Not a flip-flop or ugly man-foot to be found... Interesting concept... long pants and shoes... ;-P

[@mikem5043]

People had pride in how they dressed - and shame when they looked sloppy

[@deborahchesser7375]

Then you have the trolls saying oh there were problems then too bla bla. Of course there were but things were simpler and you knew where you stood no BS’n your way through life. So I agree, born in 66’ I was a 70’s kid and 80’s young adult and those were by far much better times I’d go back in a hot second.

[@SlickArmor]

And they all wore belts.

[@SlickArmor]

I see not all groups are represented

[@michealfaulkner8870]

Wow these videos are awesome. Man do they bring back memories. I'm 65, some of mine fondness childhood memories are watching this show with Dad,and Mom, and my brothers and sisters. I can still hear my Mom, and Dad, laughing. Thanks so much for the memories.

[@LV2UXO77]

Same here, some of the best times, watching with my family and laughing historically together.

[@viktordubowskii695]

Same here. I'm 60.

[@lisalovessummertime8453]

What a great gag..lol.

[@georgesealy4706]

The undersized triangle is excellent-it's hilarious. They keep switching the balls around, thinking they must be in the wrong place. LOL.

[@robking1240]

Yeah, funny thing is, we would probably do the same thing because the human mind checks everything until it finds a solution, even the most obvious things. The mind is actually checking that it (the mind) is still logical.

Love classic CC, I cud watch this all day!

This is when America was really great!!

[@dickiegreenleaf750]

Such good looking people. The good old days

[@darylmorrison6598]

Not one minority in sight, right? The good old days!

[@programaths]

Just making the triangle one inch smaller was simple, but very effective!

[@islandgal500]

Things like this make us question our sanity!

[@MikeB0001]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it! What a great prank!

[@morsedregs9239]

Good old classic Candid Camera. They knew how to prank people and Allen Funt’s commentary is perfect. Funny funny stuff. 👍

[@eb7713]

Lol!! That was too funny! I needed a good laugh before getting ready for work today. 😀😀😀

[@Slithey7433]

This was a great show.

[@MrNobody2828]

Allan Funt made this great with his ad-libbing!😅😂

[@andrea4246]

Great stuff.

[@eldonhoward7925]

Pretty funny! 😃

[@dougoverhoff7568]

I wonder what year was this filmed? Early 60's, I would guess. Black and white TV was still the norm. But, I still noticed that practically noone had any tattoos or blue hair back then!😄

[@jimbo1959]

and smoking in the pool hall!!

[@lisalovessummertime8453]

If you look under the title of the video where it shows how many views the video has and where it says more it will show you the year and your guess is correct, this was 1960's (1964).

Don’t know why they don’t always show the part when they are told they are on Candid Camera, many times that is the FUNNIEST PART!😅

Omg too funny 🤣🤣🤣

[@HicksterTexan]

Haha good one 😆😊😊

[@AmazingPhilippines1]

Billiards is very popular here in the Philippines even with young kids using marbles on a homemade table. It would be fun to try some of these pranks on them.

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

Oh we got trouble... right here in River City... ;-P

[@donnythedingo]

It's all about the commentary from the observer. LMAO

[@allglorytogod12]

Temu selling billiard triangles in the 60's.

[@jimmycain8669]

Back before all the bums.

[@skyedog24]

The only reason I'm responding to this is to find out your mentality what exactly do you mean because there have always been people that are down and out if that's what you mean by bums but usually you don't see bums playing pool . As a rule.

[@markl4593]

@skyedog24 I took his use of the word “bums” to mean the drug addicted ilk living in tents and deficating on the sidewalks in San Francisco and Seattle and “take your pick”.

[@andrewst9797]

No one could think this up in 2025!👏 Not even a computer.

[@micheldubuis1051]

[@chichipox]

so many of those men were so good looking

[@SARbeaver1]

Hilarious.

[@charlesurrea1451]

There were great lengths that were gone through to put those gags together. Wasn't just: go to the store, buy billiard balls and done. And then drilling holes in them! I thought you Funt boys were going to grow up doing special effects.🎥 Production is fun too. Just saying, imagine the gags he would do with todays tech?

[@Cbcw76]

Durward Kirby... oh my...

[@johnseal56]

They had to be a bit careful with this one, Id imagine! Lot of serious, "no foolin'" people I'm sure they had to navigate!

[@denvawareley8506]

It's interesting to see not one fat human back in the day

[@SteveHoworth-u9z]

The commentator sounds like Leonard Bernstein...?

[@dirtylemon3379]

Good thing Harvey wasn't there.

[@princeofdarknessxyz1]

1:20...sad a dad would smoke in front of his son

[@Paladin70]

Back then people smoked everywhere but church - restaurants, airplanes, on most tv shows and even in hospital patient rooms and waiting rooms. Cigarette manufacturers were the biggest advertisers on television and even kids could go into stores and buy cigarettes. Cigarette vending machines were everywhere you went. Hard to believe but all true - I was there.

[@hillbillychic8417]

Ok crybaby.

[@ffc99]

Nice to see a dad spending quality time with his son. My dear old dad used to take me to the pool hall back in the day. Everyone smoked. He also swore. 😂 let the pearl clutching begin!
