I know this is fictional. But the fact that he just finished re-wiring/installing the light fixture & the wife was able to turn the light switch on meant that he never turned the electricity off before working on it. So freaking scary 😱
I’m a licensed master electrician and we work with electricity live all the time, especially when troubleshooting. You need the power on to troubleshoot typically. It’s not a big deal if you know what you’re doing. If you wear shockproof steel toe boots, your ladder is usually fibreglass which insulates you and if you don’t touch one of the other wires at the same time you’re OK. You just can’t have a path of electricity go through you. If you do get a little poke, it’s usually very minor. You have to do is just turn the switch off. But there’s been plenty of times when I thought the power is off and it’s on, but because I follow certain strict procedures with hooking lights up, I almost never get a shock. Me my crew put up thousands of lights along with all the other Electrical and I might only get a poke once a year Once you’ve been in the industry long time, you realize that It’s actually pretty easy to stay safe.

A circuit overseer once said (from the platform) that the angels are in the cars with all JWs - until they go over the speed limit. Then, the angels fly off and you're on your own. I'm not even kidding.

Did Jesus wink and miss that? Or was he distracted by conversing with the angels? This is so unrealistic and phony.

I cringed at 19:10. I HATED going in the ministry. It felt so forced and cringey and gross. This brought back way too many memories of those feelings for me
ex jws, I need help. i am 14, and my mother is having Bible study with our small local congregation every Monday and Wednesday. She keeps trying to get me to attend a service or Bible study, but I don't want to. what do I do? my mom is the most worldly person I know, I really don't want her doing this. she said her granny always used to close the door when the JWs were out in service. she thinks it's because her granny feared their power. i think she just hated them because the propaganda. the ladies my mom studies with are really sweet, I just hope they unindoctrinate themselves. what do I do??? I'm going to a Bible study on Tuesday, they said there's another kid my age. what do I do? how do I fit in?
Also, if you wanna be more of a religious Christians or simply study Christianity for fun, do so. You can use this knowledge and teachings of the Church Fathers to refute whatever crazy cult doctrines the JWs have and explain why no mainstream Christian Denomination takes them seriously
@@WhoWellOk that's true. JWs have doctrines that none of the early Christians held and doctrines that aren't even supported Biblically. The Bible doesn't forbid blood transfusions
Hey ya'll. I came here because of Betty. Who's here because of Betty? 'Betty' apparently called me the other day and left a voicemail talking about 'the good news' and a local convention. Since 'good news' is code for JW I just chuckled and went on my day. Then my phone rang at 10:30 pm with a voicemail. Now anybody like me rocking 46 years does NOT want the phone to ring at 10:30 PM. That's code for 'You're going to a funeral'. So anyways there was a voicemail. I gritted my teeth and played it. It was Betty! The exact voice mail recording from earlier. Hey Betty, you can kiss my...
The last time anybody called me at 10:30 pm was the hospital telling me that my Stepmom was dead. Before that it was a call my father was dead. I guess this was a call that Jesus was dead but I already knew that part.
That's exactly what it is. The biggest tragedy about that shit is it turns people off of religion altogether. It's not real Christianity but victims rarely see shit rationally. I'm ex Mormon and I see the same thing with most people leaving that goofyass cult too.
12:25 I cringed here, there's just no way someone who looking for his spirituality inside would ever be convince by JWs who looks for "spirituality" in the organization...
idk what timestamp. but i've been cringing a lot so far watching it. jw's fascinate me so much cause of how much they misunderstand their own book. im so glad i was raised non denominational and not a jw. this shit is way worse. also i never got the whole thing about trying to convert everyone or "something bad will happen" to them. it's just a gross cultic mindset to fear monger children and young adults. also as an amateur angelologist. i'm really upset that people often misunderstand what angels look like or are. while there are human-like angels (the Ishim), i really don't think they'd be pale skinned considering the era they originate from. you expect me to believe an Ishim that supposedly exists before all of us is a white man.
The Mormon church sucks, but at least they have the "if you go to college you'll have more money to give to the church" thing figured out. Like, do JWs not want a STEM PhD giving them 10% of their $100,000 a year income? Meanwhile the Mormon church highly encourages getting well-paying degrees (There are so many dentists in Utah, my god) because they know that they're going to get more tithes from a dentist than a carpenter. They even have their own school so they can keep people indoctrinated while preparing them to be a better income stream. Say what you will about the Mormon leadership, but at least they're practical.
Never understood the point of the SAME BORING interviews.. SAME shit different cast. They are always on REPEAT. Who would leave for 3 days in summer for this mess?
A JW started talking to me in the grocery store, and I said: "oh, you don't know? Yahweh is a Canaanite volcano and storm deity from a polytheistic pantheon. We know this now." After a blank look, I put my hand on his shoulder and said: "I'm so sorry." Then left. Hopefully that plants a seed he will actually follow up on, because the ACTUAL SCHOLARSHIP is clear. Yahweh was plagiarized, then changed as needed while Aberhamic devotees grifted their way through history. And there is no grifter worse than Paul, aka SAUL THE GRIFTER. Well, maybe Mohammed was a worse grifter, but I suspect he had other issues that were beyond his control. His decrees scream OCD, as he was OBSESSED WITH certain numbers and rituals. I've dealt with debilitating OCD my whole life, I know what it looks like. I can't imagine life without medication and DBT.
I’m taking notes. I love when I go on TH-cam and learn that Satan is just Saturn. Dispelling entire lifetime of rumors that I as a redhead am the devil. ❤😂
I suspect someone watched a certian Jew with a series on YWHE fomr esoterica! Also Mohammed was way worse. Not only a bloodthirsty war mongering murderer but a child R too. At least Saul spent the rest of his life contemplating his actions when he took part in that one killing of Stephen. No excuse, but Ill let Mohammed take the cake on the biggest grifter in the world.
0:55. didn't think I would do it, but being hit with "What was your favorite scene" like this is star wars theory talking about his fanfilm, honestly just brought me to a state of disbelief.
Thank you for making these videos. I have a grear aunt and cousin who were converted when I was younger, and I haven't seen them once since. I learn so much from your videos!
Wasn't there one assembly in recent years where they went through the whole rigmarole of the baptism talk, only for there to have been zero candidates that day?
Wanna point out that the thing with the Septuagint and Hebrew bible is a bit more complicated. As I understand, scholars consider Septuagint usage of word "virgin" more accurate than the Masoretic "young woman", so the author of Matthew didn't make much of a mistake with it
If they really believe the end is so near then way are they building the video studios and other building prodjects that wont be done until 2026 and later ?
Stop asking questions just consume product and get excited for next product! Watchtower does the thinking for you and watchtower says don’t question all the multi million dollar building projects but be sure to give them your money and volunteer for free! Don’t look at the kingdom hall you built for free with your time and money we just sold to another religion or a smoke shop!
They have mentioned those studios will be continued to be used in the “new world” it’s very confusing to me me to imagine how will that even happen with the Armageddon war and destruction.
@@meganagetro6302 they tell their members not to pursue material things and not to remodel their homes and yet the governing body is remodeling kingdom halls , building new kingdom halls and not just one or two but hundreds of them. The governing body has been asking more and more for money guilting the rank and file to give money and they have them believing that them giving their time to work on these building projects is sacred service for God. When it's working for free for watchtower.
I cringe every time I hear them try to convert people. I used to be homeless and JWs were always trying to convince me that their beliefs would fix my life. I told them I don’t need another problem and religion is one. I got very angry at them because they do not help the homeless, but they preach to them in shelters and call that helping. I think of them as predators hunting down people who are facing a crisis. They thought I would be easy game because I was living on the street but that wasn’t the case because I grew up next door neighbors to a family of JWs, and I already knew their cult ways.
Is the governing body taking horse riding lessons for when they will ride down from heaven to destroy me and billions? Maybe now and arrow or sword wielding lessons?
Hey man, you are by far the best ex JW channel ever. Humorous, engaging, but actually you got something to say. I'm very anti religious, but the way so many ex JW channel would present themselves just was not appealing to me. I'm 21 and hoping to outearn my parents in a few years to finally live my life finally. I came out to my dad as transgender, and I knew he'd never kick me out of anywhere (I also don't live with him anyway), but I just remember him saying shit like "y'know yeah there's many people at the Kingdom Hall who wouldn't even want to interact with you" and damn dad it's like you're kinda wrong cause if I was curious, they'd be throwing Awake magazines and JW buttons at me like ironically Christmas. If Jesus was on earth currently I'm sure he'd agree that it's better for me to finally want to look at myself in the mirror for the first time instead of crying and being eternally frustrated with my appearance. Seriously. Also had to read that 1960s Bible story book every night at aged 5. At age 5, I saw that last Jesus image of his face looking like all his life is drained away as his hands profusely bleed. At age 5 I thought in my head, "shoot, I can't even comprehend the pain of a nail going through one hand into another and left there to bleed and starve." Aged 5!!!! Thanks for the good news my man Jehovah please like why is this in a kid's book gimme Chika Chika Boom Boom instead!!!
Here we go again with the "almah" nonsense. Just like with some modern languages, it means both "virgin" and "young woman" (think of English "maiden"). The same applies to Greek "parthenos", like the virgin (that is unmarried) goddesses Diana or Athena, who were referred to as "parthenoi" in Greek.
I was a great chaperone to my sister. I'd tell her ahead of time: "You can kiss him if u want. I won't look." Lol😂 ... but she never did. She'd say, "No! I'm not gonna do that!!" And I'd roll my eyes 🙄
Isaiah was spoking about a virgin giving birth in the original text. After all it wouldn't be much of a sign if a young woman would give birth to a child.
It may be silly, I know, but everytime they make a drama showing interesting, multifaceted worldly people going pleasantly about their business and leading fulfilling lives, I find myself rooting for them to walk right past the JW cart 😫 It's heartbreaking as they slowly become indoctrinated and you see the couple lose their individuality.
At my Anglican Church we were told that if we did not evangelise, we would go to hell. As an introvert who got bullied at school, I was terrified. Years passed, a different person told the congregation you would still go to heaven, “but it won’t be as good.” What the f? So much for “truth” and for all the existential fears I had throughout my childhood AND adult life.
So if the JW’s want to convert everyone, and they don’t want people to go to college, who do they think are going to be the engineers, architects, etc?
Thank you SOOO much for leading/guiding me OUT of that absolute hell hole of a fucking CULT!

@exjwpandatower I was playing this at work just now after my apprentices had left for the day, and then there was the part where she said “instead of reading nonfiction books I read the Bible “
And then you said “what’s the difference” and that made my day. I literally burst out laughing with that one. Good job, bro.
Actually, you had a number of good quips in the video. I love what you do with the videos. Keep up the great work.
The acting in the hipsters section of this video is pretty accurate of what can be seen in real life at any meeting/convention/field service; bland & lacking any depth. Thank you Panda for another great video.
It’s funny cuz I’ve seen younger Jdubs who try to be all cool and hipster like while also being Jdubs 🤣
You know he was doing well 'progressing' when he lost the ear plugs...good boy. This is so freaking cringe! I'm sorry, this drama is so hard to watch!
And necklace 🤣
22:51 prisoner kept isolated would jump on the chance to talk with any religious peddler. Prisoners are considered a protected class because little things can become major bribes.
Watching this on my lunch break is a blessing from the Watchtower 🤩 🐑 baaa
I cringed at 19:10. I HATED going in the ministry. It felt so forced and cringey and gross. This brought back way too many memories of those feelings for me
lost at 00:00 (title has "Jehovah's Witness")
Holy fucking shit this propaganda machine is insane!
ex jws, I need help. i am 14, and my mother is having Bible study with our small local congregation every Monday and Wednesday. She keeps trying to get me to attend a service or Bible study, but I don't want to. what do I do? my mom is the most worldly person I know, I really don't want her doing this. she said her granny always used to close the door when the JWs were out in service. she thinks it's because her granny feared their power. i think she just hated them because the propaganda. the ladies my mom studies with are really sweet, I just hope they unindoctrinate themselves. what do I do??? I'm going to a Bible study on Tuesday, they said there's another kid my age. what do I do? how do I fit in?
My best advice. Quite simply. Just don’t go.
Tell your mom to see the Australia Royal Commission JW CSA cases.
Also, if you wanna be more of a religious Christians or simply study Christianity for fun, do so. You can use this knowledge and teachings of the Church Fathers to refute whatever crazy cult doctrines the JWs have and explain why no mainstream Christian Denomination takes them seriously
@@ПойонепJW isn’t Christian though they’re Unitarian Araic
@@WhoWellOk that's true. JWs have doctrines that none of the early Christians held and doctrines that aren't even supported Biblically. The Bible doesn't forbid blood transfusions
Having grown up Mormon and served a Mormon mission, so much of this applies to me too.
Hey ya'll. I came here because of Betty. Who's here because of Betty?
'Betty' apparently called me the other day and left a voicemail talking about 'the good news' and a local convention. Since 'good news' is code for JW I just chuckled and went on my day.
Then my phone rang at 10:30 pm with a voicemail. Now anybody like me rocking 46 years does NOT want the phone to ring at 10:30 PM. That's code for 'You're going to a funeral'. So anyways there was a voicemail. I gritted my teeth and played it.
It was Betty! The exact voice mail recording from earlier.
Hey Betty, you can kiss my...
The last time anybody called me at 10:30 pm was the hospital telling me that my Stepmom was dead. Before that it was a call my father was dead. I guess this was a call that Jesus was dead but I already knew that part.
And the fact that they all have to refer to speech or notes constantly 😂.
Watch in real time as this formally happy couple joins a cult and has the actual joy sucked out of them
Wake up babe new JW convention to react to with Panda Tower
Myself are a christian, but jw's hears like a weird, twisted version of all other christian religions
That's exactly what it is. The biggest tragedy about that shit is it turns people off of religion altogether. It's not real Christianity but victims rarely see shit rationally. I'm ex Mormon and I see the same thing with most people leaving that goofyass cult too.
@@georgerafa5041 I am myself a protestant so not completely cult but still, every religion is a cult to some degree
I'm so glad that my parents are regular Christians
@@Slurp_Co.Protestant is JW 2.0
@@IrisFox97yuh but realistically there’s no difference between Protestant and JW the true Christian are the Orthodox and Catholic
Ayooo got on the exact moment this was uploaded. I felt a disturbance in the force lol
The angel flapping his wings was the worst cringe
Flaps😉
12:25 I cringed here, there's just no way someone who looking for his spirituality inside would ever be convince by JWs who looks for "spirituality" in the organization...
idk what timestamp. but i've been cringing a lot so far watching it. jw's fascinate me so much cause of how much they misunderstand their own book. im so glad i was raised non denominational and not a jw. this shit is way worse. also i never got the whole thing about trying to convert everyone or "something bad will happen" to them. it's just a gross cultic mindset to fear monger children and young adults. also as an amateur angelologist. i'm really upset that people often misunderstand what angels look like or are. while there are human-like angels (the Ishim), i really don't think they'd be pale skinned considering the era they originate from. you expect me to believe an Ishim that supposedly exists before all of us is a white man.
The Mormon church sucks, but at least they have the "if you go to college you'll have more money to give to the church" thing figured out. Like, do JWs not want a STEM PhD giving them 10% of their $100,000 a year income? Meanwhile the Mormon church highly encourages getting well-paying degrees (There are so many dentists in Utah, my god) because they know that they're going to get more tithes from a dentist than a carpenter. They even have their own school so they can keep people indoctrinated while preparing them to be a better income stream. Say what you will about the Mormon leadership, but at least they're practical.
The concept of a Jehovah's Witness couple studying the Book of Revelation of all biblical books just scares me.
Last time I start a conversation, it ended well enough because now I’m engaged to that man😂
Never understood the point of the SAME BORING interviews.. SAME shit different cast. They are always on REPEAT. Who would leave for 3 days in summer for this mess?
A JW started talking to me in the grocery store, and I said: "oh, you don't know? Yahweh is a Canaanite volcano and storm deity from a polytheistic pantheon. We know this now." After a blank look, I put my hand on his shoulder and said: "I'm so sorry." Then left. Hopefully that plants a seed he will actually follow up on, because the ACTUAL SCHOLARSHIP is clear. Yahweh was plagiarized, then changed as needed while Aberhamic devotees grifted their way through history.
And there is no grifter worse than Paul, aka SAUL THE GRIFTER. Well, maybe Mohammed was a worse grifter, but I suspect he had other issues that were beyond his control. His decrees scream OCD, as he was OBSESSED WITH certain numbers and rituals. I've dealt with debilitating OCD my whole life, I know what it looks like. I can't imagine life without medication and DBT.
I’m taking notes.
I love when I go on TH-cam and learn that Satan is just Saturn.
Dispelling entire lifetime of rumors that I as a redhead am the devil. ❤😂
I suspect someone watched a certian Jew with a series on YWHE fomr esoterica! Also Mohammed was way worse. Not only a bloodthirsty war mongering murderer but a child R too. At least Saul spent the rest of his life contemplating his actions when he took part in that one killing of Stephen. No excuse, but Ill let Mohammed take the cake on the biggest grifter in the world.
I used to think Christianity was bs until I experienced a supernatural evil entity
0:55. didn't think I would do it, but being hit with "What was your favorite scene" like this is star wars theory talking about his fanfilm, honestly just brought me to a state of disbelief.
The chaperone thing didn't just happen in the 1950s, even ij the 1800s unmarried couples were required a chaperone
Thank you for making these videos. I have a grear aunt and cousin who were converted when I was younger, and I haven't seen them once since. I learn so much from your videos!
Panda's one liners are my favorite part of each of his episodes. They're perfectly timed and fierce. 😂
😂😂OMG - "It literally is a task you check off the list" - awesome!
So wait don't they tell us to meditate on scriptures but we can't meditate with ourselves. Make it make sense
Nooooo!!! Panda said the question/line that shall never be ask/mentioned!!!(it can’t get any worse)
If those are hipsters I'm Jesus christ.... ffs
Wasn't there one assembly in recent years where they went through the whole rigmarole of the baptism talk, only for there to have been zero candidates that day?
Wanna point out that the thing with the Septuagint and Hebrew bible is a bit more complicated. As I understand, scholars consider Septuagint usage of word "virgin" more accurate than the Masoretic "young woman", so the author of Matthew didn't make much of a mistake with it
Watching these dramatizations is like having a virtual lobotomy. Aint no way I will ever go back to that thoughtless mindset
The hipsters in the dramatization look insufferable, they did a great job making them look realistic.
Cringed at 1:11 at the myriad of old white men "angels".
Great video! Thank You, Cheers 🥂
4:05 and 4:10 (what's the difference) had me rolling lmao 🤣
If they really believe the end is so near then way are they building the video studios and other building prodjects that wont be done until 2026 and later ?
Stop asking questions just consume product and get excited for next product! Watchtower does the thinking for you and watchtower says don’t question all the multi million dollar building projects but be sure to give them your money and volunteer for free! Don’t look at the kingdom hall you built for free with your time and money we just sold to another religion or a smoke shop!
They have mentioned those studios will be continued to be used in the “new world” it’s very confusing to me me to imagine how will that even happen with the Armageddon war and destruction.
@@meganagetro6302 where does the Bible say those studios will be used in the new world ?
@@ericbulman1752 there you go! 😉 exactly my point
@@meganagetro6302 they tell their members not to pursue material things and not to remodel their homes and yet the governing body is remodeling kingdom halls , building new kingdom halls and not just one or two but hundreds of them. The governing body has been asking more and more for money guilting the rank and file to give money and they have them believing that them giving their time to work on these building projects is sacred service for God. When it's working for free for watchtower.
I've passed previous "cringe" challenges, until now. This one hit different. 😮
21:40 Malcom X grandson.........Malcom Y
And great grandson Malcom Zzzz 😴
I cringe every time I hear them try to convert people. I used to be homeless and JWs were always trying to convince me that their beliefs would fix my life. I told them I don’t need another problem and religion is one. I got very angry at them because they do not help the homeless, but they preach to them in shelters and call that helping. I think of them as predators hunting down people who are facing a crisis. They thought I would be easy game because I was living on the street but that wasn’t the case because I grew up next door neighbors to a family of JWs, and I already knew their cult ways.
Is the governing body taking horse riding lessons for when they will ride down from heaven to destroy me and billions? Maybe now and arrow or sword wielding lessons?
Hey man, you are by far the best ex JW channel ever. Humorous, engaging, but actually you got something to say. I'm very anti religious, but the way so many ex JW channel would present themselves just was not appealing to me.
I'm 21 and hoping to outearn my parents in a few years to finally live my life finally. I came out to my dad as transgender, and I knew he'd never kick me out of anywhere (I also don't live with him anyway), but I just remember him saying shit like "y'know yeah there's many people at the Kingdom Hall who wouldn't even want to interact with you" and damn dad it's like you're kinda wrong cause if I was curious, they'd be throwing Awake magazines and JW buttons at me like ironically Christmas.
If Jesus was on earth currently I'm sure he'd agree that it's better for me to finally want to look at myself in the mirror for the first time instead of crying and being eternally frustrated with my appearance. Seriously. Also had to read that 1960s Bible story book every night at aged 5.
At age 5, I saw that last Jesus image of his face looking like all his life is drained away as his hands profusely bleed. At age 5 I thought in my head, "shoot, I can't even comprehend the pain of a nail going through one hand into another and left there to bleed and starve." Aged 5!!!!
Thanks for the good news my man Jehovah please like why is this in a kid's book gimme Chika Chika Boom Boom instead!!!
Believe it or not does a good job
Darth mogg too
But the best is modified skeptic.
Why are all of these JW movies so cringy?
Here we go again with the "almah" nonsense. Just like with some modern languages, it means both "virgin" and "young woman" (think of English "maiden"). The same applies to Greek "parthenos", like the virgin (that is unmarried) goddesses Diana or Athena, who were referred to as "parthenoi" in Greek.
4:45 Not the 1950s, but the 1850s 😂
My favorite kingdom song? "Army of large women"! Especially getting trampled trying to get a few seats on opening stadium doors.
great analysis. right on!
I was a great chaperone to my sister. I'd tell her ahead of time: "You can kiss him if u want. I won't look." Lol😂 ... but she never did. She'd say, "No! I'm not gonna do that!!" And I'd roll my eyes 🙄
They use the publications more than they use the Bible. Goes to show they follow the word of men rather than the word of God
I LOVE your editing 😂❤❤❤❤
Isaiah was spoking about a virgin giving birth in the original text. After all it wouldn't be much of a sign if a young woman would give birth to a child.
It may be silly, I know, but everytime they make a drama showing interesting, multifaceted worldly people going pleasantly about their business and leading fulfilling lives, I find myself rooting for them to walk right past the JW cart 😫 It's heartbreaking as they slowly become indoctrinated and you see the couple lose their individuality.
I'm not JW. But I was proud to be a chaperone at an LGBT youth party. Age 16-25. Alcohol free. I wasn't really needed. The kids were so well behaved.
I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M THIS EARLY
At my Anglican Church we were told that if we did not evangelise, we would go to hell. As an introvert who got bullied at school, I was terrified.
Years passed, a different person told the congregation you would still go to heaven, “but it won’t be as good.”
What the f? So much for “truth” and for all the existential fears I had throughout my childhood AND adult life.
30:13, I just lost the challenge. Massive cringe!
Was not expecting a Nerd Crew cameo, well played!
The husband went from cool to a stereotypical 50's husband. What a tragedy.
so preaching for them is the act of trespassing
I love it when they "sacrifice everything" and get such a comfy and spacious place to live at still
The Panda God has uploaded
The weird, flat, monotone dialog in these videos is straight out of Birdemic.
2:50 The virgin in german Jung-Frau, (young woman) virgin reffers to a young female.
If you read biblical descriptions of angels you'd be terrified of the monster.
So if the JW’s want to convert everyone, and they don’t want people to go to college, who do they think are going to be the engineers, architects, etc?
