Reminds me of how Valve says that players practically NEVER naturally look upwards in video games. Valve's level designers always need to add cues, like lighting, framing architecture, an enemy shooting tracer bullets from somewhere high, or even a scripted flock of birds flying up towards what the player needs to see.

For me it was austin cause his realization of "I was the bad guy the whole time" to "those were good guys I killed" to "did they have families" was the funniest thought pattern I've ever heard😂
One thing this video makes very clear is that a real life spider man would be terrifying to an actual bad guy. Literally the same horror potential and fear factor as batman for Gotham criminals
I think about this a lot! There’s a few “what if Batman was an evil bat monster man” stories, but not enough “what if Peter Parker became an evil mutant spider man killer” stories.
@@YOEL_44 not really the same to me, but I get the comparison. Venom feels like a lion trying to eat me, which is scary, but different than like a calculated nerd trying to kill me
"What better way to make someone a henchman than to make them think they are the good guy" that's.... surprisingly deep. like for real, you can get people to do anything if they think its for a good reason.
@@jeffjefferson5095😂 Squirrels is just a codename for fugitive runners hiding high up. you would hate that too if it’s a group of them and you need to watch those in front of you at the same time, so those climbing in trees or even balconies can be a pain.
As someone who's studied video games and human behavior, I can tell you for a fact, People do NOT look up. Rarely does anyone want to or feel the need to look up. If you ever want to hide something in a video-game, hide it above the player. Chances are they will scan every molecule of the floor and walls before they start searching above them.
first thing I think of is Fromsoftware (soulsborne) always put goop monsters on the ceiling directly above shiny items on the floor. They know what they're doing.
I don't know what the effect is called, but when a shape blends in with the background from some angles... maybe you could cleverly design the room and outfit and have a setup similar to this video, but instead of going up, Niko will just stand in the middle of the room and not be visible from the doorframe. Might be a little too hard to pull this off with human eyeballs and not a carefully selected camera angle.
NGL, I'm slightly disappointed that John Wick Olympic isn't a thing (maybe it still can??) - but THIS type of content is pure GOLD, we need MORE of this!
In the vein of "Superhero Sleight of Hand"...maybe the next thing you guys could test would be instead of going through a doorway (as you would expect), going through a wall Superman-style and getting the jump on a criminal. Use a plastic, foam, or cardstock-type material and pose it as an actual wall, then burst through it, Superman-style. Superman don't go around walls...he goes through them!
*Uplift Desk* : Back in 2000 I was working in Stockholm, Sweden. They had motorised desks that could go up _and_ tilt into a drafting desk, while keeping everything attached. Mind. Blown. Everything like new in the office. But they are Swedes. So every meeting room was spotless, with white board pens returned to their holder, nibs down. And for larger meetings in the boardroom, they had folding chairs that wre stored off the floor on two long poles attached to the wall. You just slid off how many you needed. So clever and space saving !
as someone who constantly jumps up on top of things on halo reach to drop down and assassinate people. no one looks up couldn't count the times I've crouched on top of a doorframe and waited for an enemy to walk through and had no idea I was there
love the concept for this video, and i love how you went through grave detail to animate jake like the spiderverse style as well, talk about commitment!
Testing out superhero hiding in real life is one of the best series you guys made. My jaw was dropped and smiling at the same time when I saw the first reaction LOL
Remember that time we were convinced to watch an ad for a desk because we genuinely wanted to see who would win in a smash tournament between Niko and Wren 5:58
Niko and Jake should do a 1v1 Con Battle, where for an entire week, they try to con their friends, and never reveal until the final day where they gather everyone and show it.
Awesome to see you put it to the test. In the case of Spider-Man, you’re considering active and passive observation- people don’t look up much passively (I’ve chilled on many rooftops that I probably shouldn’t have and my legs hanging off the roof went entirely unnoticed if I was more than three stories up), but people are actually LESS likely to look up in situations like the one in which Sam was placed. He was expecting an armed combatant so his priority was clearing cover that could hide an armed assailant on foot. If you know you’re chasing Spider-Man, I would expect more henchman prioritize verticality 😅 that said, really awesome way to test this. I love how professionally and thoroughly you test the hypothesis- brings back childhood mythbusters vibes in the best possible way 🔥
I thought that hearing about this episode in the podcast would lessen the enjoyment or impact but it was actually the contrary. This was great to watch!
loved the setup of this prank and I love how you setup the plan with jake and made him react to it, this video was awesome. Literally chomped an entire bag of popcorn whilst watching this. Cheers!
peripheral field of vision is what makes it hard you need tall ceilings. its like in FPS, like halo, if you jumped on top of stuff people didnt normally or go on top of you could stay hidden quite often. But games have limited vision angles...
Amazing video! Sometimes when people try re-creating superhero tricks, it can look a bit silly lol, but something about the execution here felt really cool. I especially loved the different first person perspectives. It's crazy how good some of those shots came out!
In my old d&d group we concluded that nobody ever looked up. So we made a house rule where if you didn't specify that you look up when checking for things, you don’t see it. It made for some hilarious and sometimes frustrating moments. And don’t worry, this logic applied to npc's too.
I've been watching your videos for such a long time now, and I'm looking forward to finally buying my first PC to do VFX. Your channel is a great inspiration!
This is a 10/10 video, even for classic Corridor channel vibes! So happy to see y'all continuing to work on videos like this!!! Favorite takedown was for Jan, just because of the lore there!
I feel like if you lived in the world of Spiderman, Peter could just run into a room and stand in the middle of it and every henchman running after him would miss him because they would be looking up at the ceiling and checking the corners. Also, now you have to do a John Vick video without explaining why every participant keeps checking the ceiling first whenever they enter a new area.
Man I love these office surprise videos. We were overdue for sure. Looks like I also missed a door in the loading dock on the Halo infinite map remake! 😅
I like how you animated Jake on twos.
Top tier comment

animated on twos and voiced by AI
yeah mixed framerates create this effect
Jake is in the spider verse
"You wanna hang out later" was the perfect spider-quip
"We got an IP switch out here hold on a second!" was the perfect Jordan-quip.
“I'm gonna put some dirt your eye”
The words straight out of Tom Holland's mouth.
Now I get that spider man’s planning quips the whole time he’s up there
Damn realizing spiderman doesnt quip on the fly but rehearses them in his mind before hand is great

I soo much want to see the Metal Gear Solid hide-in-a-cardboard-box trick done! If Niko or Jake pull this one off, hats off! 🤩😅
Marines did it to an AI turret during testing. Another did cartwheels. Basically came down to either not acting human or not being human shaped.
They did one kind of like this iirc a while ago when they were doing one of the sense challenges
Works really well in a warehouse
Please do this.

Also a decoy, if possible.

I wonder if this was different when we used to decorate ceilings more.
I loved seeing Sam genuinely surprised by Spider-Niko
Yes, so much. The confusion as something was touching him from behind was amazing, even to the point of feeling urged to continue forward.
takes a next level practical joke to suprise Gorsky

The pure shock on everyone’s face after the reveal 😂

Always spin the drum for clothes.
Always look up for Spider-man.

See how nobody laughed
that's what happens when you mix framerates. I assume they use Riverside, which is hard set to 23.95 fps when recording.
