The video shows 10 people coming into the restaurant, with one singled out as an "infected" person. A fluorescent substance only visible under black light is applied onto that person's hands, representing germs from a cough or a sneeze. Each participant then goes about the buffet as they normally would, not considering a potential contamination.

At the end of the video, the participants are cast under black lights illuminating where the "infection" has spread.

The substance, used to signify the germs, can be seen on food, serving utensils and platters, and even on the faces of some of the participants.

    Or maybe you'd been ass-munching in the public stalls and your nose was jammed full of excrement We'll never know.

    The fact that this was modded 'Interesting' was funnier than your 'slow day on /b/ troll', ass munching indeed...I'll have you know that I'm as pure as the driven yellow snow....
