I am having a very hard time telling if this is scripted/ad-libbed or a real person. I hope it's a real person because it's wonderful.

I'm leaning toward scripted. It's a fairly easy set up for a joke.

Like this sort of stuff, they're shorter than that segment but sort of the same idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9hRIjys4Qw

This is (allegedly?) a segment from the British documentary series Equinox, from the episode "Malltime":

So an actual person it seems.

It feels that way too. I was just hoping it might have been authentic! Either way it is lovely. Thanks for sharing it!
