Mall Social Experiment: Filming Strangers' Reactions in Romania

Viorel Teaca, a Romanian social media personality, recently conducted a spontaneous social experiment at a local mall. He filmed short encounters with various people, observing their responses to being unexpectedly recorded. The experiment, filmed on May 18th, 2025, yielded diverse reactions, ranging from curiosity and amusement to mild apprehension. While the experiment lacked a specific objective, Teaca noted the diverse reactions offered interesting insights into human behavior in unexpected situations. "It was interesting to see how people reacted," Teaca stated. The video, now circulating online, has sparked minor online discussions about public reactions to being filmed.
