People like the guy in the video, should be left to their own devices. We're better off with them out of the gene pool (albeit he's obviously from the shallow end of the pool. :

I was told there are no life guards in the shallow end of the gene pool!

DITTO! I wouldn't get the rest of my fingers that close to the blade. Personally I think that's in poor taste. If he is in the habbit of getting his fingers that close, it won't be long before he can post the real thing.

The thumb does look a bit rubbery.  Anyway, in either case, it was foolish to get the rest of his fingers that close to the blade just for a joke.  Also, if it was a joke, he had to stop in the middle of a cut leaving the blade running, which could have caused a kickback.  Now if he showed the board kicking back into his abdomen, we'd know it was real!
