This video record documents mainstream international coverage of the Chinese “cabbage walkers” performance-art phenomenon, in which people were reported walking cabbages on leads in public spaces. The item is relevant to the wider evidential record because the story was later treated by critics as an example of implausible or questionable agency material, even though it had also been covered by major international media and related to a real performance-art practice. Its importance lies in showing how unusual or apparently absurd visual stories can be wrongly dismissed when judged only by surface plausibility rather than by proper source checking, context and provenance. The record also helps illustrate the broader problem addressed in the book: stories that sound strange are not automatically false, and credibility should depend on evidence, sourcing and verification rather than instinctive disbelief.
