I think the funniest part of that video is the guy who gets on the screen at the very end of it.

Also, that is not the best way to sell people crappy swords. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

He keeps the salesman voice on the whole time. What a professional. Afterwards I felt kind of guilty for laughing at the guy. It's not like it was his fault or anything, he was just doing his job.

Nah, don't feel guilty.

Accidents like that are supposed to make people laugh.
I can almost guarantee that guy laughed about it himself at some point.

You should see the video with the QVC guy selling a "sturdy, never-worry-about-it" ladder, then promptly falls from the top of it like a jackass. Its great TV.

Ladder video (http://media.ebaumsworld.com/index.php?e=qvclatter.asx)

The best part is when the lady says "uh.. I think the floor is slippery around there."

Uh... the ladder didn't slip, the guy reached out too far and lost his balance.

"He's moving, so I think he's ok."

I guess she thought he might be dead.

Yeah, I don't think you want this guy being the Al Haig of QVC.

"I, uh, think we might need some, uh, emergency surgery here in the studio."

That's right, Bubba. Emergency surgery there in the studio.

He certainly flew into action and tackled that difficult situation with much alacrity.
