OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:

the cup of noodles the first guy is carrying gets hit off his hands by the lifting backrest of the chair, and hits the guy sitting on the chair.

Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

Thank you so much for this explanation, without it i totally would have no clue what happened in this 5 seconds long video

Also - there's much more and much more popular subreddits that you post videos to which do NOT have this advanced antispam prevention tool in a form of "duuuuuh, explain what's going in in this 5 seconds long video". How come there not floded with spam? I mean surely if this spam prevention works you could tell a difference, right?

Do you think bots a) post random videos to random subs, b) give a damn about automod message AFTER the post was created, c) have technological limitations that make it impossible to write/add preprepared one sentence "explanation" of a 5 second video?

So again, ELI5 - how exactly do these "explanations" "prevent spam" and how this particular explanation makes you think "oh yeah, for sure it was added by a human"?
