I was compelled to check out more of his channel, and there is a lot of funny stuff there.
He posted a video showing how he makes the animations, which I think is a really cool gesture. It's not funny, but I would put it in the "cool" category.

Reminds me of the days when I worked in the gas plant.
There was a fellow whom rarely worked in the plant (he was usually in the control room). The odd time he did work outside he would take our (shared) truck for the entire night shift, pull it behind the cooling tower, and sleep for most of the shift.
Now, for the record, I'm not opposed to sleeping at work. Shiftwork is a different beast. If you aren't busy and can catch a nap on a good night, have at 'er, because the bad nights more than make up for it.
My issue was; we only had one truck, and it was reserved for the operator in the other unit, because most of his tasks involved areas that were 2-3km away, in multiple directions. So when this fellow had the truck, the operator that actually needed the truck had to use the side-by-side open air quad. In -30.
So finally one night I'd had enough of driving our Gator around in sub-zero temperatures. With some help from the control room operator I decided it was time to each him a bit of a lesson.
Very near the cooling tower he always slept at was a building full of chlorine bottles, which was outfitted with a chlorine detection system in case there was a lethal sized leak. We were required to test this system weekly.
I waited until he was sound asleep one night, grabbed an SCBA (breathing apparatus) and some emergency gear and put it on. I called the control room to start the weekly test procedure and as soon as the sirens started blaring I ran up to the driver's side window of his truck (while in full emergency gear) and pounded on it relentlessly yelling "You gotta get out of here!"
I have never seen a person wake up and drive a truck away so quickly in my life.
Never again did I have to worry about not getting the truck, but it was likely only by an act of god he didn't accidentally drive it into the cooling tower as he made his getaway. .
