A homeless man is plucked off the street by a couple of YouTube pranksters. But, instead of trying to get him to kiss them, or pretending that it’s the end of the world (like these particular pranksters have in the past), they give him an extreme makeover.
A haircut, new clothes, new shoes, a bed to sleep in and all the food he can eat (including Nutella on a spoon.) It sounds like the ultimate random act of kindness.
But, we don’t know. There’s something about the video that just doesn’t sit well with us. There’s something that feels kind of exploitative and disingenuous. It made us a tad uncomfortable. What do you think?

Maybe their intentions were coming from the right place but it left me feeling uncomfortable also!! What does he do next..? After being given money, clothes and accommodation then nothing.
Maybe they could have helped him find a job and integrate him back into the community.
There would be other life skills he would have been missing because of time on the streets.
I think it's a great idea. But I could have lived without seeing the man eat.
