What The Feed: Guessing game

A simple guessing game disguised as a team introduction. The video opens with text like “Guess the manager. LEVEL: HARD”, followed by different people stepping into the frame one by one.

The fun is in making the audience guess who fits the role, personality or description before the answer is revealed. Sometimes the answer is completely obvious, and that is exactly what makes it funny.
