If nothing else, it's got rythm.

Why does the man with the camera not help the box along? Furthermore, why is he not fired?

Could have been filmed by a static/fixed security camera possibly?

Nope, he moves around.

As for why he does nothing, I'm guessing this is staged. Something put inside the box, maybe a cylinder shaped thingamaling that keeps it right at the balance of doing that dance show. Someone prolly just bored.

It may be late but the ladies would rather have it late than early.

Sometime's items get traded or stolen between transportation. Its happens.

Many years ago UPS guy offered me a laptop for some cash. They have insurances so items do go missing from time to time.

Meh... film it a few minutes, post it on the interwebs your quasi famous and gave us all something to laugh at.

I'm sure at some point they 'helped' the box but it did have a good rythim.

Besides there is probably some safety rule that advixes agains touching the moving items.

I told him I couldn't send them fried, scrambled or poached. Boiled rock hard was no problem.
