AI-animated satire from DOOOD What The?!. Reacts to a real news story; see transcript below.
Dooood! What the? Okay, check this out. Some guys in Brooklyn climbed down into a sewer at one in the morning. Eight of them. Then they climbed back out and took all their clothes off in the street. The police looked into it and decided they were treasure hunters. Everybody asks why we go down in the sewer. Because down there, that is where the city keeps its secrets. We take the dirty gear off up top so the wives do not smell the good sewer juice. It is about respect. Sure, right now I am a grown man in my underwear holding a flashlight. But down there, I matter. The police searched the whole tunnel, found nothing, and told everyone there is no threat to the public. Eight grown men, zero clothes, and a truly remarkable amount of shortcomings. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
