Once again, I have found another cursed video in the deep and dark depths of the video giant, YouTube. This time though, some of it may actually work as intended.
This video is called karlmayer, and can be found here.
This video got my attention for its strange subliminal messaging and its back story.
Basically, karlmayer was an experiment done by the original poster to see if people would believe in a curse if some of the effects were guaranteed to happen. This video is apparently supposed to make you commit suicide after a while. Even though none have been linked to this video, EVER, the other effects are what make the curse seem real.
The other effects are the feeling of fear and paranoia. This naturally occurs because your brain can't really determine what is happening in the video. You feel safe physically, but your mind says otherwise.
This is known as 'Cognitive Dissonance' or the creepy feeling. I'll get into that at a later date, but let's focus on the video.
The creepy feeling will make you feel paranoia and fear naturally. When the human brain can't find a proper emotion to display, it will automatically default to fear, since it is the easiest to display. Videos like karlmayer are all over YouTube, but this is definitely going to remain in my head for a while.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to jump off a bridge.
Bye!
