See This Mom’s Reaction After Viewing Footage of Her Sleepwalking Attempt to ‘Open a Tomato Cage’

Sep. 7, 2012 9:01am Liz Klimas

Sleepwalking individuals often provide comic relief to those still in a wakeful state. One son decided to share some of these laughs by filming his mother sleepwalking — more like sleepdancing by the looks of it — and then showing her the footage afterward.

In the one-minute video of the man’s mom sleepwalking, you see her dance into the kitchen, saying “it’s a special code” as she enters in her pink pj’s. She explains she was “trying to open a tomato cage” — this is what the coded dance was for.

Son Films Mother Sleepwalking and Shows Her Footage Afterward

“I tried many things, but it wouldn’t open and I’m pissed off now,” she explains still in her sleeping state.

See the mom sleepwalk:

The son, Nick, then goes on to show his mother — after she’s awake — her quest to open the tomato cage. He films her reaction of disbelief too.

Laughing and with hands over her mouth, Nick’s mom can’t believe what she did.

“Come on, this is not right,” she said. “I had a dream about cherry picking or tomato picking or something.”

“Well, it wasn’t a dream,” Nick said.

Watch the reaction footage:

You do not have to be on meds to sleepwalk as some here have assumed. My daughter has been a sleepwalker since she was about 9 years old and has never been on meds. One time she ran through the house screaming bloody murder in the middle of the night. Scared my husband and me to death. We jumped up and watched her for a moment, asking what was wrong. She proceeded to scream that giant pink bunnies were chasing her. She ran to the back door and turned around and ran back to her bed. Once back in her bed, I woke her up, gently, and asked her if she was ok. She thought I was nuts waking her in the middle of the night, she had no knowledge of what she had just done.

I thought my boss had Email Tourrette’s Syndrome (ETS). Now I think she’s sleepwalking. Video coming soon.

  Where’s your funny bone? I thought it was a very fun and funny moment. The only ridicule she might get would be from a stiff bump on the log like, let me think … No one comes to mind right … Wait a minute! YOU! Relax man it’s harmless. Maybe we should pass a law to keep these criminal type sons under control. He should be sent to JAIL!!! You vote’n Democrazy this year??

I sent a soldier to Ft. Knox once for some testing. He slept walked his car from the Army lodge to a telephone pole out front of the px. Got out of the car and didn’t wake up until he was at the MP station.

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen a sleep walker. Unbelievable!

  My sister, when she was little, sleep-walked into the kitchen, asked mom of a glass of water, poured it on the floor and went back to bed. It had mom and dad up for a lot of nights watching over her. It did not happen again, thank goodness.

“Explain to me why are we videotaping my reaction?”
“Because, mom… if this thing went viral, we could make a decent amount of CA$H!!!”
“Ooooooh, ok!”

  At least she is an adult and so is the son.
  
  Parents make a YouTube fortune exploiding their children. And once they get a kid video that makes money – THEY MAKE MORE VIDEOS of them cashing off them even more. That “Charlie Bit Me” video is one such exploitation of children. It wasn’t that funny and the parents just keep making more and more and more and more videos of them. I flat out refuse to watch any Charlie videos and rarely click on a YOutube video involving a child. Why encourage the parents to cash in.

I agree with most of the posters here, I would guess this woman takes some type of Rx sleep aid. There are many more natural ways to relax yourself to get a good night’s sleep. They also don’t come with a 3 page list of side effects, either.

I wake up in the same position I laid down in…yet –if I do not adjust it daily– my mattress is almost off of the bed by the end of a week…with no memory of any dreams or tossing/turning.

Sleep is an amazing thing and we’re learning more about it. When you dream, there is a part of your brain that temporarily paralyzes you so that when you dream, you don’t get up and enact it, which could be dangerous. I saw a video of a cat that scientists destroyed that part of her brain. Every time the cat dreamed, she would get up and enact it, chasing imaginary mice and so forth. Poor kitty! Permanent sleep walker.

  In fact that’s the neurological mechanism that Obama operatives in the CIA and FBI are exploiting in cases like the James Holmes incident, the Sihk Temple shooter’s and the coming mass-shootings they will enact until November.

Yikes! While funny it’s also frightening someone could get out of bed, go through all that and not have any recollection of it. Anyone know what causes sleep walking? Other than Ambien?? I’ve heard of people doing it that weren’t on any meds.

  As for my own experience with Ambien. I never selpt walked. And I was on 24mg a night for a while. I suspect the only people who don’t know what they’re doing while taking Ambien are politicans who get caught drinking and driving or in bed with someone other then their wife. But I’m cynical at times.

  Yes he loves his mom. These are moments that will be cherished for as long as he lives and will help him with the heartache when she is gone. Let him rejoice in the happy moments.

Sleep Talkin’ Man is a lot funnier. I have this fear that my kids will record me while I sleep, too. That will be a day for taking ALL the Ambien when that happens.

That speech while she’s sleep walking was more logical than 98% of the other conversations you could have with your typical female.

  Or Lunesta .. or as we call them in my family Looneyesta .. my senior mother got hooked on them .. was zombie like .. ended up in the geriatric psych ward .. and had to have shock theapy. This was all while sending my deadbeat brother most of a large inheritance she had gotten from her sister.
  
  My son did see “humor” when I took my over 80 year old mother in and had her drug tested ;-)

Hmmm…..She looks to be in a trance ,like a walking zombie. Believing she is right in what she does ,and therefore she marches forward with gusto. To accomplish the task at hand…But in the fog of her being in a dream state ,it denies her access of what’s happening in the real world ..She hasn’t a clue what she is doing.. Typical Obama voter.

While entertaining, think about the ramifications if she took her car keys and drove while sleepwalking?

Ambien?

I really worry for this woman’s safety and that of her family.
