About This Video
The Present. Casey got a birthday present from Tom Sachs: a potato cannon. Spray paint and a Phillips-head screwdriver loaded into the barrel. Van made a filmmaking error and pushed stop when someone said "hold on a second," missing the shot. He promises it was not faked. The screwdriver went all the way through. Felt like Christmas with explosives. The video captures the energy of grown men with a dangerous toy and zero adult supervision.
