"Every time a haggis is caged, a bagpipe falls silent"
I'm struggling to see a downside here.
That aside, the video seems to give mixed messages along the lines of "farmed haggis isn't as good as wild haggis, and wild haggis are good for the environment so you should kill and eat wild haggis instead"
Maybe I'm overthinking it.

Fookin eedjiot! Not content with putting Pepsi in his radiator this idiot attempts to kill his car by putting liquid Nutella in the oil. This channel also spent $10,000 on a "free" car.

But if the propeller's the wrong way round
Then surely the nav lights should also be the wrong way?
Tsk - some people just aren't happy unless they're complaining!

I nearly got phone-scammed once
they spoofed my bank phone number, were trying to help me with some "fraudulent transactions" and the guy on the end of the line was totally reeling me in. It was only when I told them I had an overdraft of £248 that they hung up and I realised what I'd been on the way to falling for.
I don't keep any cash in my bank account and I have a 0% overdraft of £250 so all my money is in places it can earn interest but this guy was sooooo good. Honestly. He was playing me like a virtuoso and I always thought I was wise to that kind of shenanigens.
No. We're all susceptible to being scammed, it just takes someone who knows what they're doing. The best thing is to not have any assets worth taking.

my bank card must have fallen out of my pocket in the carpark for some hiking trails
When I got back a couple of hours later from the walk I rang my bank to cancel it. there were 15 160 quid transactions on them to some place in Leicestershire made in that 2 hours. this was on a mountain a three hours drive from melbourne. The fuckers work fast

I had a similar experience back around '02:
This was back when it was Orange. I’m on my lunch break and my phone rings.
“I’m calling from Orange because your contract has expired and you can upgrade your phone.”
“You’re not calling from Orange.”
“Yes I am.”
“Orange don’t do outbound sales, how did you get this number?”
“They gave it to us.”
“No, they didn’t. Would you like to know how I know?”
“…”
“I work for Orange, in dealer support, and you’ve just called me on my staff phone. Orange don’t sell their customers’ phone numbers, much less their own, which means you’re using a random dialler. That’s explicitly prohibited in your employer’s dealer agreement.”
“Sorry to bother you…”
“I’m going to hang up now. After I do please go and tell your boss that they’ll be hearing from me tomorrow morning.”
And they did. Also, fuck Carphone Warehouse.
