This really is a fascinating story. You can see the characters of Michael and Rahim developing throughout this, as Michael's hope turns to anger and eventually into the hollow desperation of a broken man endlessly repeating "Hello" as a madness mantra, while Rahim is completely consumed by his seething hatred. This is a true saga of two men's descent into madness. H. P. Lovecraft's got nothing on this shit. Looking at the comments now, it seems that Cr1tikal's video has at least reignited Michael's will to live, he is still going strong to this day, refusing to give up on hope, his last comment was from a mere 9 hours ago. Tragically, Rahim never made it... press F to pay respects

They should've stopped and actually thought about what this thing would do: A regular umbrella lets the rain slide down it and fall directly towards the ground. An air umbrella would PUSH the rain away at an angle,meaning everyone around you would just get blasted with rain from the side.

I was scammed on eBay once. I payed $5,500 for a 2004 Ford Ranger because my old car was dying. The woman I was buying it from said she was stationed on a Army base in Virginia and said she would have the truck shipped in a container to my home in about 3-5 business days. A week later, I still haven't received the truck. She emails again me saying she needs an extra $200 for shipping insurance. After I saw this email, I decided to do some research on scams of this sort. I found out that a ton of people had fallen into the same trap I did. I then called eBay asking if there was any way I could get my money back. They said they couldn't because I payed through something called "Money-Gram" and was incapable of getting my money back. So yeah, I know what it's like getting scammed.

[@clarencezer]

Rat Bastrd damn man I'm sorry :c

Never ever pay for anything through MoneyGram or Western Union. They are basically made for people to send money to their families abroad or far away

[@european-one]

You Squidding Me? If he had bought it through eBay he would have been fine. Clearly they told him to use an external payment (itself not allowed by eBay) and he did it. Never pay anyone directly, if you go through eBay or Amazon they can return the money. PayPal sometimes refund you too but it can take months and is a real pain in the backside. I've had the opposite happen, I listed my car fly sale and some scammer claiming he was stationed overseas wanted to buy it without viewing it and that he would PayPal me the money. I told him I wasn't going to accept that. What they tend to do is send you a fake email pretending to be PayPal saying that you have received money. May even have a fake PayPal link that will ask you your password for good measure. They then take what you are selling and you get squat. Sometimes too be extra cheeky the email will claim to be for more than you were due, and they will ask you to transfer some back. So not only do they steal what you are selling, you pay them for the privilege.
