That guy is priceless. Crazy story too.
Love how he knew what to do if your leg gets stuck between train cars...

Best part is about 2:40 where he drops all pretense and speaks seriously, as a decent human.

I wanted to slap him up until that moment, and I wanted to hug him immediately after.

Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.
