vale9001 Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) A Belgian TikTok star with over 166,000 followers on the platform faked his own death for attention from his family, according to a recent report. "Cheers to you all, welcome to my funeral," David Baerten told his assembled guests in a video, according to The Times of London. The Times quoted Baerten on his reasoning for faking his own death. "What I see in my family often hurts me," the TikToker said. People also reported that Baerten included his family in on the social experiment. "Rest in peace Daddy. I will never stop thinking about you," one of his daughters reportedly wrote on TikTok before the service. "Why is life so unfair? Why you? You were going to be a grandfather, and you still had your whole life ahead of you. I love you! We love you! We will never forget you." TikTok is increasingly becoming a source not only for pranks and social experiments like the one that Baerten reportedly sprung on his family, but also for news. Edited June 16, 2023 by vale9001

getBusy Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Honestly i don’t believe a single thing and this sounds like a PR move.
Robert Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 This is genuinely disgusting and offensive. I don’t think I could forgive someone for doing that to me.
