Video mystery
Since the release of the music video “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis in August of 2012, a mystery has been surrounding a brief clip in the video. The clip in question is a 2 second shot of a man in a bright green jacket walking down a sidewalk in what appears to be a residential neighborhood. The man’s face is not clear, but many people have claimed to know who he is.
Some people have even claimed that the man in the video is actually them. One man, in particular, has been determined to find out the identity of the mystery man. His name is Bryan Cranston, and he is an actor best known for his role as Walter White on the TV series “Breaking Bad”.
Cranston became interested in the mystery when a fan of his show sent him a link to the music video and told him that the mystery man looked like him. Cranston was so intrigued that he decided to start a social media campaign to try and find out the man’s identity.
The campaign was a success, and Cranston was able to identify the mystery man as a man named Aaron Paul. Paul is also an actor, and is best known for his role as Jesse Pinkman on “Breaking Bad”.
Although the mystery has been solved, many people are still curious about why Macklemore and Ryan Lewis chose to include the clip in their music video. Some people have speculated that the clip was included as a Easter egg for “Breaking Bad” fans, while others believe that it was included as a tribute to Paul’s character on the show.
No one knows for sure what the clip means or why it was included in the video, but it is clear that it has sparked the interest of many people.
