Don't forget carrying a smoothie too :)

But yes, that's a great point. And I think adds to my thesis too. A lot of us expect that creating videos of his quality would take a team of 3+ people holding cameras, planning production, etc. But he casually does it all himself. That surprises us. Breaks our expectations. Of course, it's taken many years and broken bones of his to get to this level of professionalism. But I never said breaking expectations was easy :)

Nerdwriter, or someone similar, made a video about Casey's amateur aesthetic.
That was very informative and eye opening regarding how much time he has put into mastering the 'amateur' aesthetic while literally doing multiple things at once, eg: Holding a 3lb camera with a gorilla pod while riding a boosted board, drinking a smoothie and having a coherent conversation towards the viewer.
Yeah, he did. It's a good one.
