  • A chilling video that has been circulating since 2009 is variously reported as an audition for the television show Armenia's Got Talent, Poland's Got Talent, or Russia's Got Talent gone horribly wrong, a haplessly comedic "William Tell" act that ends with one participant taking an arrow straight through the head: https://youtu.be/cbJ8czW2SdY No program by any of those names exists, however, and the set shown in the video curiously features only generic signs and props reading "Talent" in English: no fuller program name is displayed, no signage bearing anything written in the language of the country in which this program supposedly aired is evident, and no one in the clip speaks a word of dialogue. (A briefly-displayed overlay in Cyrillic lettering identifies the clip as featuring the "Amazing Brothers.") The video can be pegged as fake for a number of reasons, chief among them that if such a horrible accident had truly occurred during the recording of a television show, it would not have been broadcast, so we'd expect to be viewing the action "raw" as captured by a single camera. Yet the clip has obviously been cleanly edited (to include cuts to the judges' reactions) and has been subject to post-production (to add graphic overlays), simulating the appearance of something that was prepared or aired as part of a finished program. (Not to mention that the bowman fails to evince the least bit of horror or surprise at having "accidentally" shot his partner in the head.) Some have speculated that this clip was a viral promotion for the CULT Cola energy drink, a can of which the "victim" ostentatiously takes from one of the judges and places atop his head (with the label properly facing the camera) after failing at multiple efforts to balance an apple on his noggin. This theory is reinforced by the existence of similar "Talent" clips that also prominently display CULT Cola, posted to the drink's own Facebook page:
