The video seems like Snapchat footage taken in the UK. The clip starts seemingly innocent as the woman featured walks on the pavement in a residential area. However, when the clip zooms in and focuses on her, she becomes completely still.

The blonde woman is dressed in a black jumper and white trousers. For any viewer, the pedestrian’s choice to stop dead in her tracks and freeze comes as an absolute puzzle.

Social media reactions to the viral video

The viral TikTok video of the woman seemingly frozen in the street led to an internet debate on what really happened. Regardless of the reasons they believed in, the clip sure left all its viewers scratching their heads in confusion.

Most of the comments and the caption for the viral TikTok video of the woman frozen in the street seem to suggest the same thing: we are living in a simulated world. Many people claim that the woman’s bizarre behavior is simply due to a ‘glitch in the matrix.’

Others made similar references to movies like The Truman Show and joked that the woman had gone to another dimension. However, some suggest that the video is just a case of good editing skills because even her hair seems to pause in time. 

Moreover, users also supported the woman as they shed light on medical conditions like the absence seizures and epilepsy, which could lead to such symptoms.

What’s a ‘glitch in the matrix’?

The term comes from the iconic Keanu Reeves sci-fi blockbuster, The Matrix, where the main character discovers he lives in a computer simulation. Any phenomenon that hints at the simulation not being the real world is called a glitch in the matrix.

Controversial internet personality Andrew Tate gave the term his own twist as he seemed to suggest that people are not aware of the system around them that supposedly controls them.

According to people who believe in this idea, the new viral TikTok video proves that we live in a matrix and that the woman’s act is just another glitch that proves it. Only recently, an American Airlines passenger had claimed that a person on board was ‘not real.’
