F**king hilarious, all by itself.
"Useful", no, entertaining, yes...I like the subversive nod not to so many of todays pressing social issues. For instance crying babies, a crisis on the rise over the past 4 years, is simply and economically solved by putting your money where their mouth is, brilliant guys. Money laundering at its best. Keep up the good work, gentlemen and change will be in the air
The person in the video is using the knife unsafely, a danger if kids are watching this, more effective would've been "how to use a knife properly when cutting out a pumpkin" the actor is demonstrating cutting towards his thumb & body! One slip and he's missing a thumb or pulling the knife from his stomach!
While this is a nicely put together video, I think all of us in the US have grown up carving pumpkins our whole life and have even heard that they were originally created out of turnips. A little more research & variety would have made this how to more compelling. (ie, how to pick out a good/unique pumpkin, going to the patch, different tools.) Also more cultural perspective, like the connection to Dia de la Muertos. The petroleum jelly was a good suggestion, and kudos for adding the pumpkin seeds suggestion (often forgotten I think)
