After many commenters suggested that Tyler might actually have been kidnapped, the boy and his ‘kidnappers’ put out another video explaining that it was a prank and they were safe, reported Fox News.

However, many have criticised the staging of a kidnapping given there was an actual case where intruders barged into a student’s house while online classes were going on.

Take a look at how people reacted to the video:

Wow! I couldn’t do that. My coworkers would find a way to get the cops to my apt 😂😂😂

They’d be calling the center asking for my emergency contact files 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/2HyTWVTILn
