Am I the only one who thinks that is funny? I picture the tester standing there with one shoe on, maybe standing on one foot... or if not him, then some other poor schmuck. "Hey! You there, yeah you. Take off your shoe! We're doing a video... no time to explain, just give me your shoe!"
"Uh... You're the boss. Hey! WHAT DID YOU JUST DO!" Jimmy the intern turns back and forth neurotically while pulling his hair. "Oh my god! We'll be fired! That's the only prototype!"

"Relax Jimmy, I pulled back at the last second. No one will even know! Now, hand me your laptop."
