Cell Phone Crashing

Please Tweet it! clicktotweet.com What do strangers do when you “crash” their cell phone conversations? The answer might just surprise you! Shot in San Francisco, CA over Thanksgiving weekend. Special thanks to my beautiful wife Kim Evey for operating camera, and to the three surprisingly nice people whose calls I crashed! Is everyone that nice in San Francisco??? music by audionautix (Jason Shaw) www.youtube.com A lot of you ask how I record the sound in these videos. I use a Sennheiser wireless lavaliere mic (hidden under my sweater, by the breast bone), and shoot with a small, inexpensive Canon HD camera (HFR200) that the audio receiver plugs directly into. Sometimes I use a lavalier mic that I’ve hidden in the top of a ball point pen, and it sits in my pocket. If you’d like to see how I rigged that, check out this video: www.youtube.com Tags: cellphone “cell phone” phone crashing crasher crasher “phone call” call strangers improv parody pranks spoof video hidden camera idiot funny silly crazy weird dumb prank video cute girl guy comedy comedian jokes goofy fun interview happy television tv movie “hidden camera” web series internet talk talking speak speaking entertainment “sketch comedy” “web series” “home video” man woman dude

This short video explores ways to determine if your cell phone has been compromised to act as a bug. While it’s obviously unlikely that this would happen to most people, it was recently revealed that the FBI has used this technique, and just as illicit wiretaps are possible, illicit cell phone bugging could also occur. This video is based on Lauren Weinstein’s December 2006 blog entry: “How To Tell If Your Cell Phone Is Bugged” located at: lauren.vortex.com Be seeing you!
