The idea of this isn't dumb... but man... the absolutely horrible execution of it makes me think they had no idea what they were doing and definitely should not have attempted it that way.

I mean, it kind of is pretty dumb. You have to throw it both at the right height AND the right angle. You mess one of these up and it lands straight on your head. I applaud the confidence in his throwing skills though, because I definitely would not be so self assured that I could do this (and I wouldn't).

The worst part for me is I could see myself doing this.

Maybe the guy didn't understand/see that the doors on the back were open. No need to throw over the side.

Did he not know he had to let go?
