I know this is somewhat fake, because, come on, who could consistently do the wrong thing every time? Still, I found myself laughing at it a lot--probably because of my own bonehead mistakes and near-misses.

Reminds me of the time at Dayton when Shawn burnt himself about 4x assembling xovers that evening in the hotel room.

I love watching this guy.

Yeah, I know it's staged, but it's not fake... he really is burning/bumping/shocking the heck out of himself. I'm sure at least a few of those really hurt and left a mark!

Heh... look for the one where he shows you how to use an ESD gun. (HV generator to simulate ESD damage to electronics) I actually stumbled across it on a ESD gun manufacturer's site, when I was renting one for work. Good to see a company with a sense of humor.

Everyone who frequents this board should watch all his videos.

Still love this guy even after about 2 years... of course, it's staged and stuff, but he really does shock himself every time, video editing couldn't make it look that perfect. But... if you pause the one where he plays his "electric guitar" just at the right moment, you can see he used video editing. Other than that, everything else is real. Here's the picture of the fake guitar video paused at the right moment:
