I WAS JUST PASSING BYNow that everyone records themselves at any given moment, it’s inevitable that, purely by statistics, situations that would have gone unnoticed before are now captured on camera. What used to remain as a fleeting memory for a few witnesses can now be recorded forever and shared with the entire world.
Every day, thousands of people hit the record button without knowing that, behind them, the universe is about to do its thing. Impossible coincidences, ridiculous accidents, perfectly synchronized moments that look scripted… The combination of millions of phones filming at all times and sheer randomness makes the improbable seem almost routine.
And so, without meaning to, the main subject of a video selfie ends up capturing the exact moment when someone in the background becomes the real star of the clip. A casual gesture that sets off a chain reaction, a distraction that leads to an unexpected collision, or simply that perfect instant when everything aligns to create a moment of pure chaos.
Before, these moments were just stories told over drinks at a bar. Now, thanks to cameras always rolling, we have undeniable proof that the world is a perfect blend of chaos, physics, and space-time coincidences that align at just the right moment to change, even if only for a second, the fate of those involved.
