Umm, I didn't post it to impress you. It was an exercise in edification.

If you didn't get anything from it - so be it.

You´re right of course, but since it´s a video of popular science 100% clear vision of the cutting action was crucial.
I think the participant in the video did not enjoy the shave either, nor was it close.

It´s just a fun video messing around with nice pictures for us to enjoy



To pay the topic a toll, I am shaven smooth when my face feels comfortable
and I have a very smooth skin. To be honest I don´t get there allways
