I like this. Buy a red chair. Go on adventures.
I found this video on Facebook, on a page that shares highly compressed videos that have been “borrowed” without credit, so I was curious about where it came from. The video was cropped top and bottom with the text “life is short” added in the top border. The video ends in a rather unsatisfying way and I hoped there would be more to it.
A search on YouTube didn’t return any good results, but searching for a screenshot of the “final” frame did. I found a couple of websites talking about it, here and here. Unfortunately the videos embedded in both sites were not working but knowing it was an Ikea video helped me find it on Vimeo, which I have embedded above. It’s been sitting there since 2013. Hopefully it’ll last another few years.
The original video stops a few seconds before the end, leaving the viewer wondering what happened to our adventurer. I can see now he was going on more adventures!
