I am having a very hard time telling if this is scripted/ad-libbed or a real person. I hope it's a real person because it's wonderful.

  I'm leaning toward scripted. It's a fairly easy set up for a joke. Like this sort of stuff, they're shorter than that segment but sort of the same idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9hRIjys4Qw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9hRIjys4Qw

    It feels that way too. I was just hoping it might have been authentic! Either way it is lovely. Thanks for sharing it!

    > I'm leaning toward scripted. This is (allegedly?) a segment from the British documentary series Equinox, from the episode "Malltime": * https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15434612/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15434612/ * https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264241/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264241/ * https://tftsarchive.gla.ac.uk/vod/maindisplay/?mid=7203&nid=3567 https://tftsarchive.gla.ac.uk/vod/maindisplay/?mid=7203&nid=... * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox_(TV_programme) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox_(TV_programme) So an actual person it seems.
