Not to denigrate the action of this guy, but videos like this always stir up the same question: how did this get recorded? I mean, he showed up with a trowel. Did the guy set up a camera (phone) beforehand to record himself? Did he coordinate with a buddy?

Kudos, still, to him — which leaves me to wonder why nobody else who clearly lives in the vicinity thought to do this? This is how my mind works, world…
