This prick is a Wish I Had a Better Passport Bro, fucking loser.
The ignorance of the British (I’m British myself) when it comes to Europe can be hilarious. During the Brexit negotiations there was talk of a “barista visa” to enable young people from Switzerland (it had to be Switzerland really as they couldn’t mention an EU country) to, say, work in a Manchester coffee shop. Presumably the MP proposing this hadn’t spotted that the minimum wage in most of Switzerland is higher than the UK average wage.
Can’t be a Passport Bro with a shit passport.

Passport bro is flattering. This guy is British; Warsaw is richer than most British cities and there's a good chance some of these girls earn more than he does. Plus, they have a Schengen passport while he gets sorted into the long queue at the airport.

i've lived most of my life in sydney and london and no one in those cities looks down on people who moved to them from other areas of the country.
Yet somehow people born in Warsaw think they're so elite compared to the rest of the country. I've mainly seen that behaviour in high schoolers + early uni kids, hopefully you're not older...

I live in Germany, and I've been approached by a Polish man from Warsaw who was on a business trip, visiting the place where I work. He was doing exactly the same thing to me, being insistent and asking for "maybe having some fun together in the evening" and after being told I'm not interested and I have a partner, he asked me, "Do you really have a boyfriend or are you just saying it?" I felt so cornered and annoyed, especially that I was being bothered while at work and could not escape. It's predatory behavior. After seeing all these videos posted, it immediately reminded me of that situation.

On behalf of the polish community, I’m sorry too. We have a saying: there are people and there are windowsills. He was an old, heavy, cracked windowsill. Unfortunately, some men feel the need to compensate for their tiny egos by pulling stunts like this. Never an excuse, no matter the nationality.

Totally agree…it’s not just about that (although it’s awful) , it’s putting woman online without “Consent” - which is missing all over the video.
I get that some people made good money teaching guys to have more confidence (in particular when approaching woman) Whilst, I think you need to find your own way, as long as you are taught boundaries and respect (and that no means no), by all means try your best…
You just need “not” to be idiot…

This guy is an absolute idiot (and that’s being kind)…he’s making content and breaking the law (is illegal in Poland), making woman uncomfortable to the extent they are coming online to warn others, what part of a woman’s defensive body language and verbally saying NO makes him think it’s ok to carry on (now harassment)… I would warn him about what’s going to happen to him there, but also hoping he finds out shortly (which would be far more entertaining) - I’m also hoping he has his visa removed

Seems like I can't access that video, but...
This isn't just a pickup artist thing. There's a new group of people called rizz kids.
https://www.gameglobal.net/rizz-kids-vs-pickup-artists
The rizz kids are almost completely unaware that pickup artists exist. They have similar objectives, but without the history, organization or library of knowledge that pickup artists have had. Rizz kids are basically the same, only that they are younger and found out about 'rizz' from TikTok or Instagram. It's just a blind version of pickup artistry, with the mass appeal of 'wait, I can talk to women?!'.
Then there are passport bros, who tend to be ignorant of pickup artistry and just travel to certain *COLOMBIA* countries *BRAZIL* *MEXICO* *THAILAND* *INSERT MORE HERE*.
The infield thing is sometimes unethical and sometimes illegal. The only truly ethical version of it is through consent. But many coaches do it in order to prove to their audiences 'I am getting laid', even though proving you can start a car's engine is not evidence of parallel parking.
There's certainly an obsession or ego element, whereby guys do this as an ego boost or to get followers on annoying platforms like TikTok and Instagram. I, myself, have lots of Instagram followers, but I still find Instagram pretty garbage.
You wanna see the worst person who has ever done this?
I have met thousands of pickup artists. The vast majority of them are genuine guys. But this one particular guy genuinely is dangerous and a bad influence, and it's a miracle he isn't serving time in prison, and it's an even bigger miracle he's still on YouTube.

Unless in a very specific setting that warrants it, I'd say you should never approach a stranger to "pick them up". The initial contact has to be "organic", and only then, if they're giving you or responding to your hints, you're allowed to start this kind of conversation. Stopping people on the street when they're clearly going somewhere, or cornering them in their workplace, where it's part of their job to be nice to you and they have no way to escape - that's particularly vile. And if a girl says she has a boyfriend even though you didn't ask her, any question that follows is just criminal in my view.

Hey, what did you do yesterday?
Well, you know, I was walking around the capital approaching every attractive girl, saying some nonsense, pretending to be interested, hoping that one of them would also be interested and that I’d end up “scoring.”
When you think about it, it’s actually super creepy. And you really have to be messed up in the head to do something like that. Telling yourself you’re some kind of alpha male. And having no respect for the other person at all. Because how genuine this could be right?
Besides, a normal guy usually isn’t that interested in random girls on the street. And in my opinion, approaching random people just to boost your ego is not normal. It doesn’t really say anything good about a person. Not to mention the social norms in Poland, where small talk with strangers—especially that kind—is not well received in public space.
And if you’re unlucky, you’ll get punched by the boyfriend of the girl you’re approaching. And if you do it in places where you might run into more aggressive people, your little “game” could end with a beating, and your buddy with a camera won’t help.

I’ll add that this is in the US, and the guy explains later what he’s doing and asks if it’s OK to post the video on YouTube later. And he was just doing it for laughs.

It's legal to film in the public space, there's no concept of doing it "secretly" or "openly". They would have to ask the mall's owner company for permission though, as it's private. It's illegal to share said video without blurring people's likeness unless they got consent.

This is how I met my finance. I didn’t record it for others, I just did it to meet girls I like without depending on dating apps.

After several posts on Reddit, the story with the pickup artists caught the attention of the media. Several Telegram channels where they used to brag about their "achievements" have now been deleted. Congratulations to everyone involved — this is our shared victory!

If you look interesting enough as a guy, you also get approached by girls (yes in Poland). Recording it and posting it is a big no for me.
This guy lacks any emotional intelligence to move on when he's supposed to tho.

I am 27, a man from Latin America now living in Warsaw. Perhaps my opinion may not matter much to you, but I will share it humbly
This whole idea of “day game” seems to me nothing more than poor manners dressed up as confidence, swollen egos mistaken for strength, and a lack of real discipline
Many of these men build their image not on character, but on bodies that only imitate strength and go after those who feel weak in spirit, men who long for confidence and companionship, and they profit from that “hunger”
It really makes me sad because what they sell is not love, not even true manhood, but an empty show
Their behavior and their audience reflect a poverty of virtue, of patience, and above all, of faith
“God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control” (2 Timothy 1:7) That is the strength a man should seek
In the end, I see this whole culture as hollow
Masculinity without discipline, romance without reverence, and confidence without humility. It is nothing but shadows
I wish for the end of such a culture because it corrupts what is beautiful and leaves behind only what is disgusting
TL;DR: Day game is not true strength but bad manners and empty pride. Real manhood is built on virtue, patience, and faith, not on ego or illusions

He is absolutely hopeless at the art of picking up girls. He's terrible. Also It's illegal to show someone's face without permission.

As a man who has approached women I didn't know and has met some amazing women that way, this feels like taking it too way too far.
Why continue to pursue a woman who already expressed she isn't interested when you can just find someone who is?

This is creepy and weird, and I do not know any women that would think of it in a positive way.
