Cool video!
I especially like the change of scenery at the start. I've been meaning to make yet another shaving video that's a little more unconventional. How bad was your nick?

Nice intro in the video.
Some thoughts:
Learn to use the razor with both hands. Learn to stretch the skin more effectively. Loose the toilet paper and get a styptic pencil. It's really hard to tell from a video but your lather looked like it was pretty thin.
If you haven't watched these, it might help.

My only comment is that you seemed to be going pretty fast. If I rushed that much, I'd be using a lot more than one small piece of toilet paper. But then, I assume you sped up the video. Other than that, I'd have to say, if the shave was smooth, you don't need much from us. Good job!
By the way, I loved the balloon.

Bravo! Good job. You obviously have a fairly steady hand. I like the way you simply jump in and give it a try. I think you should provide us with an encore performance once you have gained a little more experience!

Very cool video. Very cool. I even like the background music. What's the straight? Looks like a 6/8 hollow ground round point. Nice video/
