Why Would He Do This?
Stella is in her tracks, frozen. Watching the secret footage of her husband and two kids, her mouth becomes wide open. As she watches the unimaginable man she married, she can sense her heartbeat in her throat. However, that must’ve been a joke. Her childhood sweetheart was her husband; she was his soulmate. She never could envision that he was ever going to do such a thing. She came to know there was no going back.
Why Would He Do This?
The Perfect Life
For Stella Jackson, her family was everything. She married her childhood sweetheart Josh 10 years ago, and then their two beloved kids came along. Ben was 18 months old and Emma was 5 years old. Yes, Stella thought in her ‘perfect life’ that nothing could go wrong. But when she used a nanny cam to secretly record her husband and children, she uncovered something truly incredible.
The Perfect Life
Pregnant At Last
Being a parent was not always easy for Stella and Josh. For five years, they had been trying to get pregnant, and it seemed that having a family wasn’t on their cards. However, eventually, their hard work seemed to pay off. In 2015 and 2019, they welcomed their daughter Emma and son Ben. Finally, their family felt complete, but they had no idea what was coming to them.
Pregnant At Last
Working Mommy
For Stella, it was impossible to manage a full-time job while still being a mommy. At points of time, it almost always felt like she was a superwoman, powering her route through whatever obstacle. But she and Josh agreed that for the first five years, she would go to work and he would be a stay-at-home dad. Josh did not mind it. But Stella soon found out something about her “stay-at-home dad.”
Working Mommy
What Was His Problem?
Stella had started to notice that Josh acted a little differently. He seemed distant most of the time she saw him, something in his mind lingering. He would never confess his true feelings, however. She had no idea what she would discover about her beloved husband as she set up a hidden camera.
What Was His Problem
Deep In The Night
Usually, Josh was a devoted dad. But it seemed that lately, he had some other things on his mind. That’s what Stella was attempting to get him to talk about but he would not want to. Then one night, Stella woke up to find her bed empty. Where was Josh? She rubbed and yelled at her weary eyes, but Josh won’t reply. She turned to look through the crack of the door and what she saw left her speechless in her hallway.
Deep In The Night
What Was He Doing?
Josh was leaving a room for their eldest daughter, Emma. What has he been doing? Stella looked around at her clock. In the morning, it was 3:45. Was Emma perhaps just having a nightmare? Stella brushed it off as Josh was just doing his dad’s duties, but she was so wrong.
What Was He Doing?
Getting A Nanny Cam
Stella had begun to miss out on spending time with her two kids, becoming even more concerned with work. So she set up a nanny cam to make sure there was nothing she missed out on. It was a plan which was foolproof. While she was able to do work, she would get to see her beloved kids. But when she looked at the video of the morning she had set it up, she couldn’t believe her eyes.
Getting A Nanny Cam
Keeping An Eye On Things
For most mom and dad, a nanny cam is a perfect way to keep an eye on things. You simply press the record and can then watch the footage immediately using the app on your phone. When Stella took a glance at the secret recording video of her husband and kids, she was left reeling.
Keeping An Eye On Things
Setting Up The Secret Camera
The nanny cam had been set up by Stella before she went to work. For some odd reason she did not tell her husband, and she felt like she didn’t need to. She opened up the nanny cam app while at work at lunch and watched the video of the previous morning. She didn’t know what was coming.
Setting Up The Secret Camera
Watching The Footage
Stella assumed she would find some precious moments to send her and her kids to her family when she ate her lunch at work while having to watch the nanny cam video, searching for some peace of mind. She never expected, however, that she had captured something entirely different this time.
Watching The Footage
Kids Look Happy
The video began in the living room with footage of her two children. Stella smiles to herself as she watches her beloved children dance around to a song on TV. Josh looked like he was doing laundry in the background, but suddenly, in the shot, he appeared. What he did next changed it all. In just a few minutes, her husband’s true colors were revealed.
Kids Look Happy
Not What She Expected
Stella watches as her 15-year-old husband picks her daughter up. He blows her belly with raspberries, which results in a giggle that would make a smile crack anyone. Then, Josh suddenly didn’t do anything. And as soon as Stella saw it, there was no going back. She had everybody to show.
Not What She Expected
Was This A Joke?
Stella is in her tracks, frozen. It had to be a joke right? She watches her husband from a secret hidden camera, and she can’t believe her eyes. Why would he have done this? She knew that she needed to show people. No one was watching him, he thought, but he wasn’t going to get away with it that conveniently!
Was This A Joke?
Just Goofing Around
Stella’s two kids in the living room are in the video, goofing around. In its bouncer, the baby jumps up and down to the beat. Meanwhile the TV is loudly blasting a lyrical video that Perry released as a single in 2011, which is Katy Perry’s number one smash hit “E.T.”
Just Goofing Around
Having Fun
With all the music turned up to full volume while trying to wave a pair of multicolored pom-poms around to the music, the older child continues to stand in front of the TV while her infant sibling jumps up and down in her stroller. Children are having fun. But, unknown to them, Dad is about to step in.
Having Fun
Joining In
Stella’s husband is seen in the background, walking, having to carry a box. He places the box on the table and starts walking into the living room, having noticed the kids in the living room dancing. Instead of continuing with his chores, Stella is astounded to see him actually walk into the shot and do something entirely unexpected.
Joining In
The Robot
First, he leans down on his daughter and moves his hands up and down with a jerking motion. Yeah yeah, he’s doing a robot dance in the room… To the delight of both his kids. As their father approaches them, they can be heard giggling hysterically. Then, along with the song, he even starts lip-syncing, mimicking, “Boy, you’re an alien, your touch so foreign.”
The Robot
“Dad” Moves
After he finishes doing the robot dance, he ends with a pirouette-despite being a very huge guy, this awesome father is still capable of pulling off some remarkably majestic dancing skills. Although most of the father’s moves are typical “dad” dance moves, for those who have seen it it just makes the whole video all the more endearing.
“Dad” Moves
Adorable
However, Dad doesn’t just dance with his eldest daughter. He sidles up to the baby with the baby bouncing, leaning in and grooving in time. It is obvious that the baby likes the performance as well. The baby grins with delight as her dad draws silly faces while he dances along with the music.
Adorable
Their Cheerleader
At one point, the oldest daughter hands her dad her red pom-poms. He appears to take one and twirls it around but the girl continues to insist that with both of them, he must start dancing. He demonstrates his stupid dance moves, making his kids roar with giggles. He takes the other pom-pom as well as ends up going through an impressive and sassy cheerleader routine!
Their Cheerleader
Busting Move Moves
Then the daughter takes back one of the pom-poms, with the pair continuing to twirl them around, carrying one of each. The song continues, and so does Dad. Dad remains to shake as well as twirl the pom-pom, attempting to make hilarious faces, as Katy Perry’s song starts dropping the beat and reaches a crescendo.
Busting Move Moves
The Mic Drop
As the song gets close to an end, the dad drops a pom-pom – the epic mic drop has become one of the best moves we’ve seen from the video. After which he slows down and casually leaves the living room and goes back to his tasks, unaware that his dance performance has been recorded on video…
The Mic Drop
Wholesome Fun
The viral video also shows that while hidden cameras have been used to monitor people or for more nefarious purposes, it is also possible to capture some joyful moments. And, evidently, many of those remarks displayed an outpouring of affection and love for the good dad. It seems incredibly difficult not to like the heartwarming video actually.
Wholesome Fun
He Loves His Kids
“The best dad of the year award goes to whoever he is,” commented Suzannah Danielle, a Youtube user. Gabriel Klopp did agree that such a guy is a “dad who loves his kids!” One thing is certain that these young children have such an extraordinary dad who is humble and loves making them giggle.
He Loves His Kids
Treasured Memory
When Stella initially set up the secret camera in her sitting room, she had already expected to be able to stay on top of things and maybe collect a few awesome videos of her children. Instead, she got something even better: her husband demonstrated what a dedicated father he was. Indeed, this is a clip she’ll cherish for a lifetime!
Treasured Memory
Caught On Camera
Thanks to Stella’s secret camera, the entire dance performance, however is not just as he and his children had thought. Not that the video has anything to be ashamed about. When Stella saw the video, she was at first alarmed. Then a smile spread across her face. She realized she had to share her husband’s antics with the world.
Caught On Camera
Unexpected
The clip that did the rounds on YouTube was “Mom Finds out How Dad Watches the Kids”. Some audiences have started complaining that this headline was deceptive because they were expecting something less thoughtful. “Am I the only one who thought this was going to be bad?” questioned by Jace Bailiff.“From the title, I thought this guy was a child abuser. BOY, WAS I WRONG.” Viddi Kaddi wrote.
Unexpected
Online Sensation
The video was posted by Stella on Facebook, and it received considerable attention. After which, Mike Jordan uploaded the footage to YouTube with the comment, “He has the dance moves of a goat having a seizure, but the kids like it,” When this video was shared in September 2015, it has garnered 28,000 likes, and over two million views, and this has obtained over 5,000 comments. But this isn’t the first time that’s happened…
Online Sensation
Not The Only One
The unabashed dancing of Stella’s husband with his kids wasn’t the only moment stuff like this was captured on camera. Lisa Roth uploaded a video entitled, “Hidden camera captures dad and daughter dancing to “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” by Justin Timberlake,” May 2016 on YouTube. And again it showed a devoted father doing all he could to keep his daughter amused. But some decidedly disturbing moments have been caught on hidden cameras, too…
Not The Only One
Sick To His Stomach
Joe, traumatized, is frozen in his tracks. This is a joke, huh? He’s watching the footage he secretly recorded last night and his heart is racing. It was like watching his favorite horror film, but it wasn’t a slasher from Hollywood; it was his life. For days, he was already preparing for this moment, finally finding out the reality about his lost food and actually getting proof. But then something left a sick feeling in his stomach. He knew that he had to run for it; that he had to go far. But time had run out.
Sick To His Stomach
A New York Dream
Joe Cummings spent two years living in Manhattan. It is not easy to be an actor by day and a waiter by night in a city that never sleeps. And there was no other location Joe would wish to stay, despite overcrowding, living costs, and less-than-friendly individuals. He’d been dreaming about the Big Apple all his life, and now he’s finally there! Situations may have not been ideal career-wise for Joe, but there was a great apartment, a great girlfriend, and great friends for the budding actor! He was living a dream. But Joe’s world turned upside-down one day.
A New York Dream
An Expensive City
The fact that New York was an expensive place to live in has been well known to Joe. Joe did everything in his power to save money, but he could, for a small studio apartment, from $5 coffee to $1000 rent. So when he began to have to shop more often, he became worried because the food in his fridge and pantry was quickly gone. His routine did not change, so he had no reason to eat more than usual. But there was another person living with him who might know the answer.
An Expensive City
A New Chapter In Their Lives
Lucy, a girlfriend of Joe’s, moved to his apartment recently. On cloud nine, there were two lovebirds and it was a new beginning in their daily life. But this major issue with the missing food started to gnaw at Joe. Why was his girlfriend going to get his food? Why wasn’t she just asking? Joe realized he had to start questioning Lucy about the food that was missing. He wished she wasn’t going to be insulted, but he will need answers. And besides, by buying more food, he wasted his hard-earned wages, not to consider saving for Lucy’s commitment ring.
A New Chapter In Their Lives
A Noise In The Night
One night, while Joe and Lucy were sleeping, Joe heard strange noises coming from the kitchen: a thump on the floor, a creaky doorsteps. His heart started pounding. Who was the house inside? Joe was unable to tell in his sleep if it was real or if he was dreaming. However the next morning, when some of the food that was there was gone the night before, he realized he had to act quickly. But when the truth came to light, Joe’s whole world turned upside down.
A Noise In The Night
The Morning After
The next day, Joe poured himself a glass of orange juice and confronted his girlfriend about the food that was missing. To his surprise, she tried to deny all of it. Joe didn’t want to call his girlfriend a liar, but he knew something strange was happening. Maybe she was a sleepwalker without knowing it. Heck, maybe he was! Nevertheless, the only way to know for sure was to get proof, but what Joe would soon find would leave him feeling sick to his stomach.
The Morning After
Could It Be An Animal?
Some other idea shortly after came to Joe. Perhaps an animal had come in and stolen the food? But it seemed improbable. Since his neighborhood was not precisely the safest in New York, he always locked all the windows and doors at night. Not to consider that the food in the fridge was gone and he knew that no creature could open the doors of the refrigerator. Something or someone else must have been it. Joe had enough to speculate about it – it was time to take action. But Joe didn’t know what was coming.
Could It Be An Animal
Setting Up The Camera
Joe came to town with determination and purchased a security camera with night mode. He installed it near the corner roof of the kitchen, ensuring that the corner had an uninterrupted views of the fridge and pantry. He knew he would just not tell his girlfriend that if it were her, he might catch her in the act. He pressed the record, and his day continued. But he removed the memory card the next morning and prepared himself to finally learn the truth. But he wasn’t mentally prepared, it turned out.
Setting Up The Camera
Normal At First
The video started quite normally. It’s late in the evening, and Joe is getting ready for his girlfriend to go to bed. They laugh and fight before turning all the lights off and leaving the kitchen. For the next two hours, no movement will occur, except for lights coming in from the street. Then something begins to stir. And nothing could have prepared Joe for what he was about to see.
Normal At First
This Had To Be A Joke?
Lost for words, Joe seems to be. That must have been a joke, huh? The stunt his friends had pulled had to be a prank. He is once again watching the footage. And with each glance, he feels sick. This was not what he’d expected to see. How might that be possible? From this, there was really no coming back.
This Had To Be A Joke
Hundreds Of Questions
The woman, which Joe assumed was his girlfriend, leaves her hiding spot on a table, crawls, and stabilizes. Then she reaches out and tries to grab a nearby step that she uses to jump to the ground. When he was watching this woman, he had a feeling that she had accomplished this before. His mind was full of questions as he tried to understand why his girlfriend would go through all of this difficult situation. Then the lady looks up at the camera, and Joe sees her face as clear as the light of day. It’s not a girlfriend of his.
Hundreds Of Questions
A Stranger
The lady is nothing but a total stranger in the video! Joe felt so sick to his stomach, but he also had to watch carefully, he realized. Joe is watching the woman, as comfortable as if she were hers, go around the kitchen. She opens the fridge door, grabs a bottle of orange juice, and drinks it right out of the box. She then walks and urinates up to the sink. Joe is watching the nightmare unfold, but much more horror has been made clear.
A Stranger
What Was Going On?
The lady was seen curled up on Joe’s couch, munching away when she gets to hear a noise from the bedroom at one point in the video. Shocked, she enters Joe’s kitchen and hides in it. Then Joe shows up and goes into the refrigerator for a glass of water. A few minutes after their departure, the woman returns and resumes snacking. What has been going on? It takes several hours, but Joe can’t keep the footage away from his eyes. Who was this woman?
What Was Going On?
Finishing The Footage
Joe watches as the morning light begins to crawl into his flat, then the woman crawls back into the storeroom. He sees himself entering the kitchen shortly afterward, dressed in regular clothes. He opens the fridge just like a woman a few hours ago and drinks the juice straight out of the box! Until the end, Joe completes watching the video, and he’s frozen in his tracks, trying to understand what he’s seen right now. Potentially, an unknown intruder could always hide just a couple of feet from him.
Finishing The Footage
Someone In Their House
Joe started to feel a combination of terror as well as a relief – after all the footage proved he wasn’t crazy. His food had been stolen by someone. But it wasn’t his girlfriend, as he had thought from the beginning. Something much worse was this. In their apartment, a strange woman was hiding in the kitchen storeroom, only a few more steps away from the bedroom. He had to quickly get out of there.
Someone In Their House
Going To The Cops
Joe decided to pick up his laptop and got out of the apartment in a hurry. He ran to the police station to illustrate what it was that occurred and to show them the video. He declared: “I do not know how she got there,” “The only way to get in is through the window because I’m on the top floor, and there’s an escape route.” Luckily, the cops comprehended Joe’s worries and then escorted him home, where they can really arrest the lady. However what they discovered only made him even more absolutely terrified.
Going To The Cops
The Truth Is Out
The police discovered after questioning the woman that she had been hiding in Joe’s apartment for a minimum of two weeks! He uploaded the frightening video on YouTube where once the ordeal had ended, he quickly went viral. And while many doubt Joe’s story’s validity, it’s not a bad idea to check your storage space regularly: you never know what might be hiding there as Tracy from South Carolina was about to find out.
The Truth Is Out
Crazier Than Fiction
It was like a genuine horror movie. Part of her even began to wonder if she had a nightmare that was very lucid. There was no other way for her to explain what was occurring. But it’s not fiction. He was there at home, for who knows how long, without any clue. And when all the impacts of this truth began to develop for her, she could not help but panic.
Crazier Than Fiction
Pillar Of The Family
Even prior to it happening, life hasn’t been convenient for Tracy. She was a single mother of five and lived in Rock Hill, South Carolina. During her life, she struggled to make ends meet and provide for her family. A few of her kids were now grown, but almost all of them stayed together to lower the cost of the house. Even after their situations, they lived a happy family life. And then something tended to occur that endangered all of that.
Pillar Of The Family
The Sounds Of The Floor
One day in September, Tracy began hearing odd noises coming from the attic. She thought maybe there was an intruder, but she was always wary of locking all the doors and windows. She did it as a precaution because they lived in a poor part of the town and burglaries were quite common. She saw no sign of forced entry whatsoever and thought it was all her imagination. But she soon began wondering if anything else was going on.
