As it turns out, there’s a lot of unedited, raw footage of Ted Cruz out there. It’s a not-so-secret trick that campaigns use to coordinate with their corresponding Super PACs–by releasing the footage publicly, PACs can use whatever they want. While the Cruz campaign uploaded the roughly 15 hours of raw footage this summer, the denizens of the internet appear to have just recently found it. Now, everyone is having quite a bit of fun at the expense of the Cruz family.

The entire thing is incredibly awkward. As New York Magazine stated about the segments of footage:

Presented in segments ranging anywhere from 24 minutes to more than an hour long, they contain unedited video from ad shoots for presidential campaign videos. What comes across is a bizarro campaign ad, full of awkward pauses, multiple takes, and uncomfortable hugs.

A lot of the best moments have already been cherry-picked; here’s my personal favorite:

The Daily Show host Trevor Noah had a bit of fun with Cruz’s footage, pointing out that the 15 hours of tape can be mixed and matched to create pretty much whatever. He dubbed it #CruzYourOwnAdventure, and gave some examples.

Noah then encouraged viewers to make and submit their own versions. Check out some of the best of #CruzYourOwnAdventure below.
