Prangstgrup Subway Lectures

[grumbles]

The visual perception guy was great! I really hope he'll teach, we need more educators like him. This is actually a really great way to study, I do this to prepare myself for exams now.

[Coretltd]

It's interesting that YouTube is the stimulus for these pranks.

[feelmydeepthoughts]

sorry brah 7 mins too long of a commitment...im out

[mibrar98]

combinetrics? "I'll just write lolli's." lol..

[scoodles007]

I liked the guy talking about colors and stuff he was really interesting

[xlegionsx]

These guys are professors?! Jeez they look young.

[dezziec]

Visual fella was brilliant - Cant believe people are answering him back!!

[shinseichieien]

Aw, and here I was waiting for them to say that this would be on the exam. :P Or that they'd be graded on this lecture.

[A194M]

the visual perception guy is brilliant, the protein one a lot less so

[icclepippa]

I thought this was brilliant!!! plus i learned lots, so thank you very much...

[Hoopaj00p]

The Rubik's Cube was invented by a Hungarian in the 70's not a French bloke in the 40's.

[OurFellowMan]

It's interesting how people paid most attention to the lecture on visual perception (mostly because of the "this is your eye, I'll tell you how it works" approach), and showed a typical disinterest for the mathematics lecture.

Anyway. The students doing this did a great job. I'd love to walk into a tram one day and experience something like this :)

[MikusBS]

@OurFellowMan I think that they paid most of the attention to the vision perception guy, because he had a better presence. There was an interaction with the viewer and he wasn't boring.

[aerianaeve]

The guy with visual perception would be a fantastic prof. He's got the attention of the car...then again, he's also the loudest and easiest to hear.

[shmamonshmablons]

this should really be a service that the MTA provides. i'd appreciate it.

[lonsy2]

GREAT!!! I think those who have a good level at university should share their knowledge this way even without asking for money.

So much poeple love to share konwledge on the net but don't dare to do it in the real world...

A very interesting idea!

[whw524]

i love the rubiks cube guy! haha

[InsideMyMind]

Dude! THESE GUYS ARE GOING TO MAKE THE BEST TEACHERS EVERRRRRR!!!!! I love stuff like this!

[cristinajaviera]

lol i wonder how much money they made

[corybently]

This is great. These guys rule.

[Adcmd19]

heyy at least the lectures are free...

[bKiwiD]

I think the one about Kant and Religion shouldn't have been done, because people are used to being accosted in the streets/subways and 'lectured' about religion.  It's funnier to receive an impromptu lecture about 20th century architecture, visual perception, etc.

[tybaltx]

i would have been the one following them out of the car and asking them further questions.

[emopope]

If you have ever been to NY.. bums do this all the time..

[franczyk94]

@emopope this is near colombia university i think thats the collage prangstagrup is located

[manas4]

This actually got me interested in visual perception..lol!

[hunt05]

Wow what a great idea

[Renegade30]

haha i wish i always had an interesting lecture on my public transport.

[Zeskents]

lmfao ! nice.. love these vids

[Akibatai00]

there should be a history professor, now that would get people interested

[tigggy123]

i think it wouldve been funnier if they dressed like professors. they just look like regular people talking in a subway. lol

[8394147]

I want to know who much money the collected! I liked the hand-outs and asking the car questions to get them engaged. lol

[lordennis01]

It's interestings, it shows to how far people value education. If say, Joseph Stiglitz went in there, or his equal intellectual counterpart, he would barely make enough to buy a sandwich.

[CrimsonFountainofYou]

xDDD Woooow

I woulda messed with them sooo much!

[Patka02]

This is Epic. I gotta try it.

[eoldfiel]

I hope you were taking good notes. This will be included in the test on Friday. The test is 90 percent of your grade.

[tomokh]

>D Subway University. Coming soon on the N train! No, make it the L train! Free tuition too? I'll take it!

[killerlipsonrai]

Wow, they're fuckin pros!

[antallenr82]

awesome :) lol i love the Handout part ... sweet!!!!

[iq1000cemge]

that is so cool!

[4k3el]

hahahaha lecture on the eye is so funny

[grapesofwraith1066]

Yeah, he seems the most passionate out of all of them!

[fischree255]

public education, Excellent!

[kaosinhu]

CAraka Adoro Esse ViDeo !!!!!!!!

[perricida]

great idea, great orators, great editing

[Darinrussia]

can u guys dod this again but i might not see u because i live in the bronx and we wont get on the same train

[MaiSala]

I wish someone would be doing something like this when I ride on the train, cos it'd break the monotony... I hate riding on the train, it's boring...

[ClappingForChlamydia]

this is hilarious. nice change from the daily "ladies and gentlemen, i am homeless. i am trying to get enough for a hotel room because i almost got raped last night sleeping on the train."

it's like geez lady, quit sleepin on the same damn train every damn night if you keep getting assaulted. or make up a new story. anyone else know who i'm talkin about? she's on the 1 train every afteroon at 5:45 or so.

[irelevent127]

are you making fun of me? It's hard sleeping on the same damn train every night, i almost get raped EVERY DAY. worst of all, their are people who won't give me money, it's not even human!

To prove that i am this Woman, come up to me, and say Barbaque sauce. i will reply by saying

i wish i could offord some.

[ClappingForChlamydia]

LMAO

omg

epic ftw

i pretty much love you forever right now.

[TheRushingWind]

@irelevent127 are you in a better position now?

[haben5r5432]

lol

[snabeda]

A fantastic idea to teach people while they are traveling!

The V.P. guy was hilarious! XD

[altondesu]

the student at 5.27 was completely into it.

[Freecell82]

It all worked well except for the religious studies guy. I think they just tuned him out as another preacher/crazy religious dude.

[xRISExxAGAINSTx7]

what?

[kikyonotama]

haha if i saw the brian jacobs guy not knowing who they were id know id think he was drunk with that cup in his hand.

[kikyonotama]

guy at 1:53 "your the one that wanted to take the subway today"

[ssal1122]

nice lip reading skills .. good spot lol

[Whatamk]

I still don't see it, but nice spot. I don't doubt you're right.

[pamplemoussoman]

hilarious.. but i gotta say this guy is just asking to get stabbed

[venomtrem]

its funny.lol but fun too.but if im in the train i rather the girl to teach.atleast i can stare at a hot girl teaching

[soleillullaby]

I like a moving lecture. :D These guys are cool!

[lafmassive]

This is brilliant.

[Octaviiuss]

are these ppl drunk

[MiserVII]

Hah, awesome. The guy doing the lecture on the eye was by far the best.

[sliert]

great effort prangstgrup

[AZNasty]

If only these guys would replace the crazy douchebags that give 8am subway lectures about god.

[sliert]

aren't they doing that here:)

[RavenStillBeguilin2]

This shit happens everyday on the subway. Should have done something that actually stands out

[hsifreta]

awesome!

[mocosafea]

this was a good video.

Maybe they should have had some ppl. siting in the crowd acting as students maybe asking question at random times.

Very creative. :)

[xmadnessmanx]

sweet. i actually knew the info in the protein lecture, but the architecture and optics guy lost me...

[fara40000]

i wish i could have been one of those unsuspecting passengers on the subway! i love interesting things that come out of nowhere. really! i love this!

[actrol]

People actually gave them money?

xP

[scottroliver]

this is hilarious

[JDBW]

I perfer this to the musicals

[staircapades]

lol they're falling asleep

[Creationcreed]

That gives me an Idea! IF they can do that Christians can share their information too.

[JDBW]

Brilliant, we should!! I don't have train system were I live though but I could do it on the bus or somethin!

[FrankBeltre]

Just in NY, the best city on the world!!

[glubboy08]

lmao did they actually collect money? lmao you guys are awesome

[7oclockrain]

I love how enthusiastic the professors are lol.

[minnie1247]

i prefer the musicals....

[amsterz14]

That was a great idea, and nice job B.S.ing those lectures, I actually got interested.

[JDBW]

Their lectures rang true, wasn't B.S.

[ind33]

noobs

[pelitomojao]

That's how any kind of information can be implanted in our minds if it sounds educational. No one there really wanted to know, most of them had become working machines and manipulated to what our government wants us to do = dont try to understand anything just work go home , rinse and repeat.

[BizzyTheDog]

Lulz your gai

[JDBW]

The government doesn't want us to find out how to solve rubix cubes?

[joaniemaloney]

Haha! I wouldn't mind getting lectured on the train. Might as well learn something new.:P

[xcryinginrainxx]

00:45 I DONT think she realized she wasn't supposed to be paying attention

[Llamaspaz45]

hilarious yet educational:)

[Xproletariatx]

LOL "What does this mean you ask?". I doubt anyone on that train was even paying attention. Funny though.

[laughmeasmile]

haha. you guys are amazing!

i had no clue what yall were talking about half the time.

but it was extremely entertaining.

[greganor25]

i truly believe in this method of teaching and learning. this method is overlooked in today's society. too many people wake up in a morning knowing exactly what their day holds, the same job, the same methods of transport, even the same tv shows. but people like prangstgrup are the true liberators of the mind. from a psychological point of view i would classify this as incidental learning as the distinctiveness of the situation means the information recieved is encoded so much easier

[vkotis]

i agree with you on that. information is much more easily grasped when it breaks into the monotony of everyday life. great video!!!

[JDBW]

Yeah, I mean no one would find it weird staring at a TV screen in the subway car ceiling, why shoudl they care if its a living breathing guy?

[collegefolder]

Please do this on the 4/5 train around 7:30AM. I could use the mental stimulation.

[manny2guns]

i take the subway everyday this is funny

[sjchan]

wow, these are topics I have studied and I'm learning more! I like the visual prof :) He gives demos :)

[heyitsalfe]

laaaaaaaaaaaaame

[Goodnamesbeentaken]

no, funny.

you sir, are a douchebag

[caboose2006]

You people are geniuses!

[CosmicRainbow108]

lol gud film guys :D

[comeupcrew]

I LOVE THESE GUYS....ALL their pranks are PURE GENIUS..

[Jornibo]

I don't know what is up everyone else's ass, I found this hilarious

[bobjohnson513]

I know, I thought this was funny.

[haltdeklappe]

i would of stabbed you

[geddongeorge]

i would 'have' stabbed you, not 'of'

[campsports]

no one dosent wanna hear that shit on the train

[tubofbologna]

surprised no one got hurt

[hihellokrishna]

very neat,but dont you think people need something calm,like the girls did,,you h guys have done sound pollution,unlike girls.we want peace not disturbance,that was the response from the prank.

[forever2cool]

thats a good way to practice your public speaking

[charlieclown]

This is what college is really like. We are on the subway of life with a destination in mind, some person is yelling about stuff and then they want us to pay them for it.

I guess the only difference is real college makes you pay before they start lecturing.

[risschick77]

ha ha really good !

[jgonsalk]

These people are soooo cool. I love doing stuff like this. I never get a chance to organise so many people.

RESPECT!!!!

[Lillert]

wooooo!!!! free education!!!! for tha people!!!

[nigel101]

wtf

[kxttxya]

they killed the lectures by pan-handling! lol

[tubofbologna]

wonder how much $ they made? doubt it was enought to pay for the subway rides

[Morluna]

"We have three distinct lollipops."

LOL, the guy doing eye anatomy is the best.

[Xproletariatx]

A bunch of privledged white scholars just trying to impress people. I doubt anyone on those train even finished high school. No one gives a shit.

[Sadochrist]

I love nerd pranks they are the best kind

[meggabadgirl]

LMao toooo funny. The guy that was discussing the eye was so funny. He said rods stand for? Commin everybody we just discussed this. Lol

[Fredman5551]

the guy talking about the eyes is by far the best

[scoooby012]

i would love this!

[HubmaN1234]

One word: credits.

[icekold23]

I love the guy teaching about the eyesight and the color and stuff that was hilarious.

[jk84panhead]

If I was on the subway I'd start arguing with the lecturer just for kicks.

[coulie27]

Visual Perception Prof, I should have taken your class.

[EternalFrisson]

Some of it was actually interesting to me. xD

[Xhell420]

LOVE IT!

[DingusStudley]

Loved the girl handing out the papers, that was a great touch. The guy asking the one side not to look so as to not spoil their turn was funny. Overall though this went on way too long, it's a really funny, good idea but to actually watch it it's not that funny overral.

[vivianfrances]

can i be ur TA?! lol!

[lafmassive]

Brilliant

[pyroskier720]

shadyINspa is a injun piece of jizz

[shadyINspa]

the topic protien synthesis was taught to us in 12 th std..............now u ppl know why we indians are far more intelligent

[sincerelyshel]

yeah, sorry babe. learned it in 9th. nice try though.

[vinamel97]

damn thats genius!!!!

[SunWooz]

yeah the acting of the eye sight guy was good, but I would be interested in the rubix cube!

[zteller]

Such College humour haha

[hamo804]

I would have a headache if i was on that train (TOO MUCH INFO!!!!!) but it was nice

[divegrl6]

I particularly liked the guy who was talking about eyesight.

[dontbleedthadalo]

chutz ive seen your comments before if you hate these pranks so much why bother to be a dick to say it? why dont you just rate it a 1 star and look at something else? not really a prank but i liked it

[jmhs866]

lol these people are great! and the guy who fukin said below that he would kick them i wud kick him first before he can do shit! the nerve he gots! hes fukin being educated and hes gonna act like this!

[digibrain]

Great way to practice for final exam i'd say ^__^

[chutz73]

if any of these fucking clowns were on my train i would kick them in the throat.

[SushiSyogun]

but in reality you wont.

[Exile960]

if i was doing it and you even tried coming close to me, i would beat the shit out of you.

[DSMThornz]

You're a retard and probably a minor.

Just guessing by the attitude.

[miko3z]

I really like the idea of classes in subway and Buses.. I would love to teach "confidence" in a subway or a bus. Or maybe teach something about the negative or scary side of technology in our society. I love this video

[whales]

the rods and cones guy was the funniest

[YTSenso]

Great :-)

[SuicidalThoughts420]

in regards to the girl giving the architecture lecture i would fucking love to pound her brown eye

[chutz73]

word !

[scooterbug1879]

the funnies part is that they actually do tell the truth they know what they are talking about and are giving a real lecture lol (great!)

[trowa27]

if you ever do this agian try for Kantian Ethics that is a great way to mess with some people. All College classes need to be held in Subway cars that would be great.

[xbeforeisleepx]

more people should do that

[heyfreedom]

classic. simple but brilliant!

[dropsurflyd]

man i would love that if people would teach in public, just so you won't waste time thinking of nothing. think how much more everyone would learn, and the standard of teaching would get better too

[Wcoltd]

I was thinking the exact same thing when I was watching this. We'd all be geniuses

[miko3z]

Excellent idea indeed. This could be a revolutionary public transportation start-up and a good competition to online degrees and traditional education systems.

[cajp33]

these people are so confident!!! oh to be able to do that!

[gaminkalv]

just stick out ur dick on the subway and slap sum1s face with it that would eb funny

[SuicidalThoughts420]

lmfao that would be hilarious...then ud probably get your ass beat

[Fatpandas]

Thats acctually a good idea. Why not hold lectures in public places for free?

[nachoqueen8]

rods? anybody? come on now we just talked about this.

These guys are hilarious, i would not have been able to keep a straight face.

[carfirehawk1]

i stopped watching at 45 seconds. I hope those mother#$%^&* get knocked out cold

[bnw2001]

roar lions roar

[PeytonManning00]

combinatorics vs kant and religion ...i think combinatorics is way more interesting, personally i would have incorporated permuatations as well those are awesome

[herenthere]

if i were on that train, i would be interested, but deeply annoyed if i was really tired. Hope I dont see u guys. :)

[meggiemeg86]

I'd be cracking up.

[jimbobmcgee]

Did you know I don't care for Baseball?

[nargopolis]

How nice of those generous white kids to teach all the ignorant brown people.
