I find it quite amusing that people have looked at a Macaframa video of a guy going down a steep hill with no brakes and bleeding off speed by skidding to stay under control, and said "that's what the cool kids do, I'm going to do it randomly on flat streets for no reason".
I wonder what my commute to work would look like if I videoed it in slowmo with a soundtrack?
But eh, apart from the trying way too hard bit, seems largely harmless to me.
