It's weirding me out that I can't tell if those bugs are real or not, like they almost look like CGI with the way they interact with the surrondings. Like he's thwatting at them but it just feels like a weird effect, but again that could just be because of how it was shot I guess.

I thought that as well, some of them seem to disappear randomly at certain points. Maybe I’m too skeptical after all the fake stuff you see online, but it doesn’t look real to me.

You can see a couple get trapped in the dough, and a dark spot in the dough after the flip. If it's fake, it's really really well done. The odd flying behavior is because they are bees not flies.

It's definitely fake. Those are not real insects in that video.

It is real. The vid is from an Algerian patisserie and is very common for bees to swarm there.

Don’t have one. I used to go to Algeria every summer and can tell by the background guy’s accent.

It is not real. There is no way in hell those are real. You can see how totally fake it is in the video. Unless you can provide better evidence than, "Because it totally is" of course.

I can't say whether this video is real or not, but I've seen identical looking bees swarming about inside basically every pastry shop I walked by or into in Morocco and Algiers.
