Hope the guy got to a hospital for that head injury.
And the violent sociopathy.

I just let that loop a dozen times, and the last viewing was every bit as satisfying as the first.
I’m not sure if it is the plot twist or the character development that gives the video it’s timeless satisfaction, but I hope the academy Darwin Awards recognize this when it comes time to hand out statues.

Instant Karma’s gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the head

It looks very contrived, and yet when the shovel falls it seems to fall pretty convincingly on the handle, in a way that I wouldn’t expect if the handle was completely CG. So I dunno.

You need to watch more Buster Keaton. You don’t need CG to fake things.

I especially love how how the would-be-victim shows immediate concern and compassion for the jackass who was trying to cause him immense pain.
