Drunken , Rampaging Dwarves. Of course.

 I have never wanted to a dwarf so much as when I saw this for the first time. In fact I think it could be the one and only time in my life that I have desired to be a little person. Outside of christmas time , the life of a dwarf doesn’t appear that fun but this makes me think differently. I suspect that if a group of us big people were to do what these dwarves are doing we would be branded hooligans , reprobates , sickos or fornicators but somehow being small makes this seem sort of okay, mischeivous , playful even. There’s no doubt they are having some serious fun here and who can blame them. Getting roaringly drunk , throwing missiles at a tethered car and then going on to incinerate a whole load of pot plants feels like good wholesome entertainment to me.

 This clip is from Werner Herzog’s “Even Dwarfs Started Small”. It is now at the top of my must see list.
