A group of teens in London have sparked controversy as they film themselves walking into a random house in the middle of the day. The video has sparked debates across several different platforms. Here’s everything you need to know about the debate.
TikTok trends can be about anything under the sun. From dancing to popular songs to cooking a new viral recipe, the possibilities are endless. But when does a video go too far?
That’s the debate that’s currently going on on social media after a TikToker named secretmizzy posted a video of him and his friends walking into a stranger’s home in London.
Being used to making videos about running from security guards and doing practical jokes on strangers, the group is no stranger to doing things for views. But have their last prank gone too far? Why did they walk into a random house?
Having previously done other controversial things to gain likes and followers, walking into a stranger’s home seemed to be the next plan in gaining a bigger following.
The video started with the three boys saying they were planning on walking into a random house. The next clip saw the group open the gate to a home, walking past a woman doing garden work, and up the stairs to the front door. The woman soon followed them and called out “James” as they all got inside.
A man, James, is heard replying from the kitchen downstairs and soon runs up the stairs when he sees the unknown boys in his home.
He quickly asks them to leave. But Mizzy decides to instead walk into the living room and make himself comfortable on the couch before finally walking out of the house.
Despite the video seeming real, fans are wondering how true it actually is as Mizzy captioned the post: “JAMESSS #mizzy #fakesituation #blowthisup.”
So stupid. But the way tabloids are covering it is ridiculous, its just one fucking video, not a "trend" or whatever. Its like the NyQuil Chicken thing all over again, one person does it as a meme and suddenly its a "trend" even though its only them.
I'm not defending the TikToker's actions in any way, however, right wing rags are talking about how "disgusting" and "sickening" this is. If the TikTokers were white I guarantee they would use softer language.
PS: Don't do this in America
ok this might be the first thing boomers are getting mad about that might actually be video game's fault. Pokemon taught the darn millennials that you can just waltz into anyones house and start casually talking to them.
I’ve been breaking strangers’ ceramics for years because of Zelda
I've been trying to kick my habit of throwing turtles at brick walls for years

It might become a trend, maybe even intentionally, by puffing it up like that.
i mean, maybe it's different in a normal country... but in burgerland, every time i have ever lived in an urbanized area (i.e. people going by my house many times an hour during the day, house setbacks from sidewalks less than 100'), i just keep my entry doors locked. just as much for opportunistic weirdos, solicitors with poor impulse control, and for po-po trying doorknobs, because that's a thing they do here in the states. "we knocked but no one answered so we tried the door as any reasonable person might. then we saw several weed drugs in plain sight."
Start keeping your doors locked and diligently practicing nudism.
Who is the victim though. Oh no someone walked into my house how will I ever recover
Pigs have the government on their side and will do violence against you if they feel like it. Random kids are not comparable
struggle session incoming:
Making British people scared is good, VS, This probably is not very funny if it happens to a woman(unless its exclusively kids doing it)
Personally at least I do think I would be pretty scared and startled for a while if a grown ass tiktok adult decided to go into my home as a gag, but probably just annoyed if it were teens like in this case.
Hopefully it doesn't end up actually becoming a trend for annoying content freaks, sometimes people do actually just deserve to have private and personal spaces.
