After that, a wild scuffle breaks out and the guilty man has to be shielded from the fury of other guests. He does get a cake dumped on his head though, just to add some cartoon flavor to the soap opera.

Did this really happen or is it just staged? This is what lots of users on Reddit are asking. 

Some just appreciated the plot, without worrying too much about anything else: "Holy s*** that was incredible. Dude's presentation, the build up of suspense. I don't even speak that language but you know just what he's saying by everyone's reactions. The lover in the background sweating bullets. The surprise cake to the head as it all boils over."

Others are pretty convinced that it is a fake. One user wrote: "Yea I figured it’s fake, at 1:49 you can see the lady smile when she turns back and the lady speaking looks as if she’s holding back laughter." Another criticized the acting in the video, complaining that they had seen better performances in adult movies.

Others were surprised that nobody tried to stop the person filming the scene from recording the embarrassing situation. But whether real or fake, no one can argue with the entertainment value!
