See, all you have to do is say "no." Kidnappers are not legally allowed to harm you in any way if you just decline their offer.
Best comment 😭
Alright kids. Here's what you need to know about kidnapping. Puts on Sabaton "Resist and bite"
yeah but they're also not legally allowed to kidnap you so why would that stop them
edit: some people do not know how to use a woosh but ok
Your runining the joke@@caringegg759

Yeah, I also remember my mom always teaching me as a child that kidnappers would be absolutely ZERO help with my math homework.
😂
What?!?! How am I supposed to pass pre-calc if my Mom's friends just shove me in a room with my hands all tied up. Man, people these days, rude
is that fr? lmfao
what was the context?
@@coisasaqui Zach Star makes math content
Those kidnappers were actually pretty polite.
They're Canadian kidnappers

@@brodiebuckingham2846 Minnesota nice
yea i wish my kidnappers would have been like them
@@segnoshey at least you get shelter, hopefully free food too.
I love how the sequels come before the prequels, it's so entertaining
Ikr
That’s kinda how prequels work
you should watch star wars then lol
@@crabbyboi9127 It's like poetry, it rhymes
Which means they're not sequels.
The first thing just exists, it's not a sequel or a prequel.
Then the follow up is one or the other, depending.
Gotta appreciate the kid continuing to let them try
I wish the kids I kidnap were that nice...
respect
Kid just followed cause the man had his homework. 😂
try what? they just wanted to give him a ride home
sameee@@VoidZeroNothing
At this point I think Zach just accidentally uploads his videos in the wrong order and we all think that he's doing it on purpose and giving him credit for it.
No telling with Zach anymore
Such a genius, inspiring really! To put the videos, in the wrong order, then have us viewership plebs praise him for the baller move... and it was aalllll on accident....
Love it! ^^
I mean... It's not entirely implausible. I do that a lot with my dyslexia (people assume I'm being witty, and I just let them).
I wish I had a supportive hype man like that kidnapper
Tbh, those are just my two braincells on a good day
*_Pulls gun on kid_*
What's a gun?
*_Explains gun to a kid_*
What's a death?
*_Explains life and death to kid_*
*_Gives himself existential crisis_*
*_Gives up cus nothing matters and we'll die anyway_*
No, no, better yet. He puts the gun on his mouth and shoots.
Geez bruh
Explaining life and death equals existential crisis? I'd tell this guy "if you stand for nothing you'll fall for anything... so choose something already"
@@JabamiLain on his mouth, not in.
@@Alec0124your comment just reminded me of the quote from Hamilton ”If you stand for nothing Burr what will you fall for?”
A stranger actually tried to pick me up from my elementary school saying he was a friend of my parents and he was there to pick me up for them. I had such a bad feeling I politely declined and went inside and told the staff. They immediately notified my family and who said they never sent that guy to pick me up. The staff kept me in the office and walked me out when my actual ride came. The stranger was long gone. :x
I was never warned about these things but I felt something was very off. I’m glad I didn’t get into the car with that man.
You were never warned?! I thought all parents drilled this stuff into kids. They’re lucky you’re smart 👍
Will add for anyone who looks in the replies- stranger kidnapping is a lot rarer than it being someone you know
Well- except maybe Mexico, heard kidnap ransom is a more common crime there
When I was fourteen and waiting for a traffic light while on my daily walk, a stranger got off of a bus, called out to me and approached while casually tucking a large roll of money into his pocket. He proceeded to try to get me to take his hand, and when I stepped back in fear (he was smiling sweetly but I could see something else in his eyes) he got in my face and tried to corner me against a signpost. Luckily the light changed at that moment so I went around him and crossed the street at a brisk walk. He didn't follow me, although he called out more sharply and then I heard him muttering something, probably a curse, to himself. As soon as I was out of his line of sight, I ran. I have an ingrained distrust in humanity and I had that bad feeling that you describe. But we're taught to default to trust, and I've met many a normal adult who isn't even aware that we have one of the highest crime rates in the US, and I can imagine that a young child, or someone with low situational awareness due to autism or something like that, might not have had that feeling.
@@wafflfries4163 alot of parents think one talk when little is enough . a lot are actually incompetent when it comes to understanding children, even with experience.
Impressive that the fraction question was 1/3 + 2/7, and the kidnappers added across but the kid solved it properly. Nice detail!
I was about to comment this lol
I learned how to do that in school but I've forgotten since 😢
@fredfredburger5150 you have to find a common denominator when adding/subtracting fractions (in this case, it would be 21) and then multiply the numerator by what you needed (so 1/3 becomes 7/21 and 2/7 becomes 6/21)
When multiplying you multiply straight across (2×1 and 7×3) and dividing you have to cross multiply first (2x3 and 7x1) THEN divide to get 6/7
@@fredfredburger5150Just take it on logic. You have two cakes, cut one in 7 pieces and the other in 3. Take some pieces and try to figure out what proportion of a whole cake you've got. It would obviously be easy if they were both cut into same amount of pieces: 7 and 7, then one pieces and two pieces give three pieces, out of 7. But they're not. But you're the one with a knife. If you cut every piece of the first cake into three pieces and then every piece of the second cake into seven pieces, suddenly you have two cakes cut into the same amount of pieces (3*7 or 7*3, which is 21). Now you only need to think how many pieces you take. In the first case, 1/7, you were meant to take one big piece, and since you cut them into threes, now of course you take three small pieces. Meaning you take 3/21. The same with the other cake, representing 2/3. You were meant to take two big pieces, but you cut each of them into 7 pieces, so you need to take 14 pieces to get the same amount of cake. So you get 17/21. (I just realised I counted 1/7 + 2/3 instead of 2/7 + 1/3. I would change it but I might mess it up and you'd get confused. The same logic applies in both cases. You can try 2/7 + 1/3 now and see if you get 13/21.).
@@tymondabrowski12 Alternatively, since they hold the knife, they can just threaten you to do the maths for them.
You absolutely nailed the kid facial expression of "You've got to be kidding me. Do these freaking idiot adults think I'm going anywhere with them?"
The rare but always impressive "It was all a prequel" twist.
The lore goes deep in the Zach Star multiverse
This is completely random but after seeing this comment all I think about is the lore lodgers making a video on these kidnappers
I actually laughed at the "listen very carefully" followed by a mcDonald's order.
Great running gag.
“Listen very carefully” is quickly becoming my favorite catch phrase
Zach really does have a unique obsession with kidnapping, doesn't he?
The sudden switch to a ransom phone call vibe in the McDonald's drive thru killed me 💀
And the kidnappers hyping each other up 😂
Zach being a kidnapping enthusiast for 5 minutes straight😂
Kidnappers do be like pokemon crews sometimes
The fraction bit us so true 'sounds right, but feels wrong'
I remember there was a choose your own adventure game with a black background and one of the questions involved a suspicious guy in a car at the playground addressing you. If you chose to just tell him your mom told you not to talk to strangers rather than run home, he would run out the car and kidnap you and you'd be found months later after some dark shit. This short unlocked that memory for me.
When I was younger I actually had elders approach me exactly the way our parents describe it.
Including "Candy", "we know your mom", "just around the Corner" etc.
They couldn't fool me though. I can smell Candy miles away. They definetly had non!
I had someone approach me claiming to be a friend of the neighbor, and my father had some people drive up to him and claim his mother sent them and she'd be angry if he didn't get in the car. It's crazy to think this is how kidnappers work, but they really do.
3:39 this sounds like a guy who has a lot on his *plate*
2:57 No one’s mentioning that 3/10 = (2+1)/(7+3) but 13/21 = 2/7 + 1/3? That was clever 😂
Bro I have no idea what the clever part is, and I've no idea how I passed high school maths in the first place
@3Faidonas3 13/21 = 2/7+1/3 is the same as simplifying the initial equation and adding across
So think of the denominator and make it the same, so in this case 7 and 3 become 21 while 2 becomes 6 and 1 becomes 7.
So instead of it being
2/7 + 1/3 = 13/21
It becomes
6/21 + 7/21 = 13/21
When the kidnappers were thinking you add straight across they, incorrectly, assumed that you add the top numbers together and the bottom numbers together and got the wrong answer of 3/10.
It's clever because the kidnappers demonstrate that that's how a LOT of people think of fractions because they had trouble understanding them.
I don't know how the fuck I graduated high school man, I still don't get fractions I just managed to be barely good enough at the other aspects of math to make a passing grade
@@a_d3mon but isn't that correct sometimes, like when multiplying fractions?
@@unluckystaravia2352 exactly the same here man, damn
The only one that was missing was the "hey kid I lost my puppy" "can you come help me look for it "
Actual kidnappings are very rare compared to the moral panic that resulted from them.Most are actually the other parent trying to take their kid after a divorce. But since most parents couldn't admit that maybe they were the problem all along(98% of the time) they blamed these mostly mythical strangers. End result paranoia and fear in society paving the way for 1984 style tactics of control.
I watched a Wendigoon video on that.
Something about your wording makes me skeptical. 🤷
Also depends on where you live. I've had a lot of kidnappings where I live along with people trying to kidnap me me twice.
Car crashes are rare compared to car trips that go uneventually. But I'm still going to wear my seatbelt.
It's true that most violence against kids is from family members. But for obvious reasons, that's the hardest kind to protect against.
Do you actually have anything to back this up
*pulls out a gun and forces the kid to go with them*
"I don't know what a gun is"
turns out theyre already suicidal
@@airplanes_aren.t_real 💀
I’m imagining that these two are actually his parents, but the kid is actually aware that it’s them. Or even that this isn’t even the first time they did this.
That "Stop forever" killed me lmao 🤣🤣
WOW the kidnappers have leveled up after such a long time in the business!
Congrats, Zack! I enjoy your work!
I actually had someone who said that my mom wanted her to pick me up. Surprisingly she was telling me the truth and ended up taking me to jujitsu classes. Years later and I forgot everything I learned there.
Thats horrifying
@@aptokro3005 forgetting jujitsu classes IS horrifying
@@yazidefirenzeStarted taking up karate. Not learning nearly as much as I did in jujitsu though.
"*listen very carefully, we want a six piece chicken nugget meal with a small fries and chocolate milkshake*"
Medium meal probably cheaper
Mans really decided he was going to construct a whole ass connected universe of old-style youtube skits
My brothers and I sadly disobeyed our mom and when propositioned with candy while at the park, my older brother actually lead the three of us in going to get it. The guy outside of the park thankfully didn't try to grab any of us (he would've regretted that as, while we were generally decent kids, we'd grown up having seen the 90's movie Bebe's Kids and how bad those little bastards were, lol. We would've gone full hellion if kidnapped), but the candy could've been tainted. The park was right behind our apartment building and our mom actually saw us from her bedroom window and called us back to the house. Trying to still hide it, we stashed the candy under the porch before going in. Yeah, way too late 😂. We all got an ass whoopin for it. Lesson cemented, don't take candy from strangers (unless it's Halloween...?) 😅
Remember, if you get drugs in your candy, say thank you, because drugs are expensive
@@dennishallada890 Unless it's the kind that makes you dead. Dying is expensive.
@@Alec0124I think about all documented cases of poisoned or tampered candy un-aliving kids has turned out to be done by the parents.
So beware the people you know when they act out of character.
idk how u were able to to portray the innocence in a child and look like a kid at the same time
I love how he's not a slave to pacing
This is exactly how it was portrayed. The dancing and all
Bro is building a kidnapping lore here.
You know this was shot in the 1990s with how cheap all that McDonald's was and the No breakfast after 1030 thing.
These kidnappers are just trying to adopt, in very _VERY_ *super duper hardcore way!*
You have some amazing Key and Peele energy with yourself, actually.
the reverse story telling is carzy
gotta appreciate that kidnapper doing he french dance lmfao
As someone that was in this exact kind of kidnapping, i swear this video is WEARDLY fookin accurate LMAO
Ngl the kidnapper wearing a pink ski mask in broad daylight is kind of insane
So good
huh, how did you... What?
@@WEBPMAFIAONTH-cam i swear its showing 9 days ago for u too right?
@@D1SCOTHEIDIOT Yes, I don't understand
i see what you did there
Lol wtf
You missed the one where the kidnapper has a puppy
the prequel we never knew we needed
I love how they acutally went to mcdonalds.
It’s getting progressively worse 😂 at this point this isn’t a robbery
The unrealistic part of this skit is the low price for the food
The dancing got me
The interactions between the kidnappers are really well done!
i swear i wouldnt be surprised if the kid is the kidnapper in real life
Home alone in a nutshell:
Hats off to this man for cloning himself multiple times just for us 💪🏾
The lore is getting deep
I’d Honestly love to see a whole comedy movie just like this
I wonder if anyone ever tries that " Your mom told us" when the mom is actually dead
love that his math example actually works
2/7 + 1/3 = 3/10 if you add straight across but 13/21 if you do it properly
The way they keep hyping each other up
The moms really think they gonna just stand there when the kid says no bahahhha
1:32 lol i love how the guy in the background is just doing the macarena lol
Shows how it is more of a danger of group think than individual, solo kid had no problem but was kidnapped when a group.
I thought the joke at the end was going to be all the kids waiting outside the car for the kidnappers to bring the answer sheet out.
That transition to another video was amazing 10/10 i already saw the other video but i rewatched it because that transition was so good
For those of you wondering the fractions he was trying to add are 1/3 and 2/7
I love using my algebra in Zach's videos
As a hostage, I approve this is how I was kidnapped
Kidnappers have to adapt to the times. Math homework is the key 🤣
The guy with the pink ski mask carried the video can't argue with that
When I was in early elementary school a girl had a crush on me, but instead of actually telling me decided to kidnap me. So, one day, during a heavy downpour, she sees me alone waiting for my dad to pick me up. She walks up to me and says that her mother is supposed to babysit me and I had no reason to question her so walked with her to her house. Her plan fell apart when her mother asked why I was there. She got grounded, my dad was called, and I didn't realize until years later why she tried kidnapping me.
Of course in my defense, I wasn't just dense. I had a thing for her a few months prior so one morning on the bus I said I wanted to tell her a secret, leaned in, and took that opportunity to kiss her left cheek. She immediately brought up her right hand to slap my left cheek. I walked away figuring she wasn't interested. In hindsight I think that because I didn't try anything for a few months afterwards that's why she got a crush on me.
So, basically, we were both into each other but neither one of us knew how to communicate that, I stole a kiss and she tried kidnapping instead, and then we each assumed the other wasn't interested.
It wasn't until I was 8 that I tried the direct approach with a girl. Anyway, one of the scenarios here reminded me of something that actually happened to me.
Remember kids. Kidnappers can't legally kidnap you without your permission
i like how this was the prequel to the "when the kidnappers call the police" video lmao
In reality, if a stranger approaches you, you run like you-know-what to the nearest place with other people and scream for help at the top of your lungs.
I love how you released part 1, 2nd
These kidnappers take consent really seriously.
Honestly, though, if someone offered to do my math homework I would get in the car, it's insanely hard and long, but they'd probably get rid of me once I started ranting about it.
ok we need a part 2
i love how quickly the skit goes off the rails
only unrealistic thing was that meal costing only $27.95
I thought this would just be a little thing and it turned out to be a movie
Oh God ! Fractions ? I can only remember the basics. True Vietnam flashbacks here.
So it's a prequel
I love how this is taking place directly outside the school.
Let's hope that Zach from row 12C is able and willing to stop these kidnappers
He is not only willing but able to help stop these kidnappers
❤❤just as I wonder what the rest of the clip could possibly be, Zach Star Himself amazes me!!
Love how they just became dads.
i mean the kidnaper seem pretty chill .. i'd go
Omg this is a callback to the when they trace your call skit!
Those kidnappers had some serious guns.
Bei you made the sequel and then the prequel dude that’s strong
When team rocket tries to kidnap someone lol
“Kid wants to go, kid wants go kid wants to go” what you got what you got what you got 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. This had me dying 😂
> Your mom told us to pick up
> I don't have a mom
will scare them forever
I've seen people taken by force before... it wasn't pleasant, it gave me a traumatic experience that lasted for the past few years, and it was someone I had a crush on since before kindergarten.
Also... it's usually not someone they don't know. I knew these guys in s.o.a.s.t.c., they also tried to kill me, so taking it with a grain of salt that they were released from there at the time... and that place was disbanded after I left seemingly enough, so, something is fishy about them ending up at my highschool... this is probably going to catch up with me in my lifetime, I'll have no choice but to face my fears of losing this girl.
Okay but this is an actual method that people use.
This same guy has tried this legitimately 4 times on me. I look young but im 18 I dunno why he keeps trying
Him casually having 2 balaclavas in his house
I love those prequels and the continuity in your vids.
I genuinely thought this was going to transition into a vpn ad at the end
The dancing part is surprisingly accurate in the uk
