↵OK, it’s obviously fake folks. Don’t worry, I’m not posting this in “OMG SHAWN JOHNSON ALMOST DIED!” fashion. It’s part of a “viral” campaign for Nestle. (I don’t think they walk around with shirts that say “CRISPIES” and “CHOCOLATE” all the time.) There’s a second video that at least seems more believable, if it weren’t for some poor attention to detail.↵

↵As many eagle-eyed YouTubers pointed out, Ohno starts the video on long skates, only to find himself on short skates halfway through the video, but then finishes on long skates. Not to go all Comic Book Guy on them, but worst. continuity. ever.↵
