Jimmy Kimmel issued a Youtube Challenge where you had to sneak up on your kids and turn the TV off while they were playing Fortnite. You can imagine the reactions...



Turn me off if old.

1:01 was the best and he took it like a sport. To a lesser extent, 2:15 but only because it didn't get turned off. Everyone else though.... damn.

I believe this was already a thread, but I can tell you right now this doesn't work if the kid is playing the Switch version.

Haha this went well on the Gaming side.

The parent could easily take the switch out of the dock instead of turning the tv off. Otherwise that’s like 5-10 seconds of the kid freaking to run up to their switch to play it in handheld.

I don’t understand fortnite and I never will.

Wow, I really really hope that most of these were older siblings doing it because if my kid ever hit me for turning off the tv.....well there would be no more fortnite.

I knew spazzy kids like this when I was in school in the 90s
But it wasn't very prevalent

I subbed at private high school and everybody would be playing Fortnite in the halls between classes.
I'm honestly shocked that it's allowed to usurp genuine pursuits on school grounds.

I weep for this country that our youth are sandblasting away their empathy, patience, and curiosity with a 24/7 IV of Youtube, Fortnite, and Pornhub.
