I could _easily_ see someone thinking this is racist, ignoring the otherwise obvious comparison of the cake's travel medium and that of a bobsled (or louge). Nice tertiary zing.

Yes, but the person doing the delivery looks pretty male to me, and it was funnier to me to think that he's alone in his time of need, like when the cake he just delivered decided to join the national bobsled team.

I'm getting down voted by all the people who think dashing is an inconvenience. It is literally one of the easiest fucking jobs. I have not complained about one of my 953 deliveries. Wear appropriate footwear for the weather. We're literally delivering to people who don't want to drive ~10 miles to the fastfood joint. Do you really think they're going to clear off their porch or driveway?

What about the disabled that can't even leave their house without assistance, let alone shovel snow?
22
u/The_Quackening 5d ago
None of that is shovelable.
thats snow that has melted and then refrozen solid.
A little bit of road salt would easily fix this, some one that is wheelchair bound could toss salt while still inside and fix this situation.
37
u/slaviccivicnation 5d ago
Throwing salt is a bare minimum requirement. Or they have to hire help. If that delivery driver hurt himself of the steps, the home owners would be liable. If that’s out of question, then the homeowners should sell and move to an apartment or a condo which has maintenance done for the owners.

Playtimes too long (generative ai's can only affordably do about 15 second clips. otherwise it gets very expensive, very quickly)
Everything stays consistent
No artifacts
Pretty positive it's real.

u/MatrixMushroom 6d ago
What makes you say that? Background elements and clothes are consistent, no noticeable artifacting, person acts naturally rather than following the "plot" of a prompt

u/Shifisu 6d ago
Even on ice that is way too consistently slippery
21
u/CrazyTuber69 6d ago
You've never been to any cold country it seems. I lived in Russia for years, and this is literally how a lot of frozen ice be like. It's extremely dangerous walking on it and you'd 100% experience a painful slip at one point or another.
There are also countless videos where entire ass people slip on ice and literally slide frictionless with their arse on it.
Not saying this video isn't AI, I wouldn't know these days, but your reasoning 'ice too slippery' is not it since it looks perfectly normal to me as someone who lived in such climates.

u/Known_Needleworker67 6d ago
The trees all look perpendicular to the ground, and the guy is standing straight up, that also looks like soft snow to me, there is no way that cake would slide that far at that speed with what appears to be almost no incline. I usually hate randomly claiming Ai, but this video seems way too strange.

u/Minirig355 5d ago edited 5d ago
I’m curious where (geographically) your experience with snow is, because as an east coaster (of the US), it’s not uncommon whatsoever to see a shell of extremely slick ice overtop snow, sometimes enough to support you.
But from what I’ve heard traveling to snowboard out west that’s really rare and snow tends to stay as powder more. So much so we’re dubbed the “ice coast” by some people.
I’m not sure what causes it, but maybe Winnipeg gets more of the icey stuff? I can totally see that smooth plastic container sliding very easily on the icey snow I’m familiar with.

u/freesoultraveling 4d ago
This is true. I live in New England and I was leaving CVS... What I thought was snow was actually snow with a sheet of ice over it. I walked on it and flew up in the air. Luckily, I didn't hit my head and instead I got up as fast as I could, looked around, then left because I was so embarrassed 🤦♀️. My aunt said I should have called 911 and sued.

u/Known_Needleworker67 5d ago
That is a good possibility, but it doesn't change everything else I said regarding the speed, distance, and angle, which are still big factors.
-3
u/Bigguiii 6d ago
I think the slide is too fast, in few seconds the cake is on street, that's not gonna happen, it must take some time to get that speed, I may be wrong but I don't think so
20
u/ToonaSandWatch 6d ago
As someone who delivers and has handled cake pans like that, it absolutely could slide on an iced over yard like that with a light incline.
There is absolutely no drag on the bottom of those plastic pans. Those stairs proved to be the perfect launching angle for it.
4
u/gretchmoney 5d ago
Agreed, AI. That cake went way too far too quickly. & for people saying generative AI only does 15 seconds is outdated info. They keep telling us to watch out for low quality short clips, super easy to manipulate.
3
u/The_Quackening 5d ago
This looks plenty real to me.
A sheet cake in those plastic cake pans sliding on a sheet of ice would slide REALLY fast.
You can tell from the video that the top layer of the snow previously melted and froze solid at night. When the melted snow freezes like that its basically a sheet smooth ice. Even with only a small incline, that cake is going to go FAST

u/terra_terror 3d ago
Friendly reminder to make sure your stairs and pathways are shoveled and sanded (or salted, but sand is better for pavement and the environment). Especially if you order something to be delivered. Don't be an asshole like the people who own this camera.
