Black look of minister in direction of Best man as the video ends = real.

Also why would you fake this?

I think Reason #5895 that it's fake is because we still haven't heard otherwise. In the last month this became a pretty famous video, mostly because it seems like the western world is equally divided on whether it's fake or not.

But if it was real, don't you think the couple would have popped up by now to confirm? Because I'm pretty sure the Today Show--let alone every local news outlet within 150 miles--would have been more than happy to give them three minutes.

But what do I know, maybe the newlyweds were just so humiliated by the horrible horrible embarrassment of falling in a swimming pool that they disappeared from the world forever, right after making sure to take the minister, wedding party, guests, catering staff, and cameraman with them to form an airtight League of Silence, thus protecting the reputations and legacies of all involved.

I swear I'm usually not such a killjoy about stuff like this, but I can't understand how so many people think this is real.

confirmed fake

But today, we can tell you: it’s definitely a hoax.

Chloe and Keith are actors named Josh Covitt and Charissa Wheeler. They’re not married. The clip and its video follow-up are both part of a completely scripted independent film conceived by writer/director Archie Gips along with producing partner Dennis Anderson and executive producer Nancy Moonves (ex-wife of CBS chief Les Moonves). The pool the bride fell into? That was Nancy’s. It was filmed at her house.

“Yes, it’s a hoax,” Archie told Lifeline Live in a phone call a little while ago. Added Nancy, “We didn’t set out to fool anyone. It just took on a life of its own.” Archie doesn’t really like the word hoax. “It’s more a blurring of reality and fiction,” he says. It started as a way of marketing what they saw as a romantic comedy movie and it snowballed so much that they kept the myth alive. What about flat-out lying - as the actors seemed to do on Good Day L.A.? “We tried to lie as little as possible,” says Archie.

But he admits that some people are really ticked off at finally knowing it’s not a real clip of a real wedding - and that they’re now selling it. “I’ve gotten some vicious emails,” says Archie. They’ve been trying to get on several of the shows that ran the clip initially and one TV show producer was “livid,” says Nancy. “He felt very betrayed. Where’s his sense of humor?”
