GentleDance Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 YouTube prankster shot and wounded by target of practical joke A popular US YouTube creator who prides himself on making videos in which he displays odd behavior to put people off intends to keep at it, even after one of his targets allegedly shot him nearly to death. The man, identified as 31-year-old Alan Colie, pulled a gun out and shot Cook in the stomach, investigators allege. Cook, 21, survived the wound and had to undergo surgery after first responders brought him to a hospital in critical condition. “I was playing a … simple … joke, and this guy didn’t take it very well,” Cook told WUSA from his hospital bed. Cook said the man who shot him “didn’t say anything” before firing on him, which authorities said also caused a panic among mall-goers. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/05/youtube-prankster-tanner-cook-classified-goons
Andre2000 Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 I would hope the other guy didn't get too much time
JanStan Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 The way he’s getting no sympathy lol. I have two regrets about the whole thing, one is that the door dash guy who was just trying to work is in jail, and the other is that..well…
ks_dollar Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 (edited) I hope the bullet isn't too grazed im jk but it's hard to sympathise with him Edited April 5, 2023 by ks_dollar
HeavyMetalAura Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 It’s terrible that this happened and obviously gun violence is never okay, but let me play the devil’s advocate in this situation. I come across SO many YouTube and Facebook shorts (their equivalent to TikTok) of these “pranksters” acting completely over-the-top ridiculous, rude, borderline harassing hardworking unsuspecting people, many of whom have no idea they’re being filmed, and I always find them so disrespectful. I’m a New Yorker and a gay man so I would not hesitate to humble somebody the way some of these YouTubers act when they try to prank someone in public. So in short, while this shouldn’t have happened and gun violence is never the answer… don’t prank people and act surprised when they retaliate. Prank videos are a pandemic.

Power love Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 It’s very unprofessional for the food worker to shoot the customer. I hope he’s fired & fine.
