Nathan Fielder is a modern-man's comic. His straight faced humor and technology based pranks play well with the appropriate target demographics. However, the brunt end of his pranks fall onto some not so happy, and not so willing, participants.
Fielder's series of text-based pranks have made the news before. Philly.com reported on Fielder's drug based prank last month. The concept was that kids would text their parents insinuating that they had money for drugs and then immediately text back that the previous text was not meant for their parent. Then they waited and watched the responses.
Now he's at it again, but this time he's wrecking relationships between lovers instead of familial ties.
