There are moments in the interview that hurt even us viewers in the soul, for example when Robert Downey Jr. leaves the room in a rage or Vin Diesel snubs his interlocutor. A similar situation has now happened to Marvel actor Jake Gyllenhaal. There is a video of it. It’s only 12 seconds long and still delivers enough foreign shame for a whole month.
Marvel star Jake Gyllenhaal tells flat jokes and then sinks into the ground
The whole thing happened while on an interview tour of Disney’s latest animated film, Strange World, which Gyllenhaal co-voiced with Dennis Quaid and Jaboukie Young-White. In conversation he jokingly notes a parallel between film and reality.

I think the characters [aus Strange World] behave very understandably. I believe the world we live in right now it’s also a very strange world [im Original: This world we live in today is a pretty strange world, too].
After that, second after second of painful silence elapses in the room, during which neither Quaid, nor Young-White, nor any of the interviewers laugh at this razor-thin hint of a joke. Or Gyllenhaal at least a reassuring”Ha ha, right” cobbled together. Nothing just happens. The Spider-Man star looks around helplessly dying of shame to the side, but his colleagues do not deign to comment on the phrase.
A tweet from the scene has now become an absolute trend with almost 65,000 likes. What’s the appeal of the video? Making fun of Gyllenhaal? Rather not. Many just like to know that good-looking, millionaires Hollywood megastars sometimes put their foot in it with a running start.
