Random At Best has created the ultimate [mockumentary video clip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bruz-beers1), mocking [BBC's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beaver-water) Human Planet. The video is entitled 'BBC Human Planet: The Douche' and films a perspective piece on the men behind the [greasy hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hair-ballad).

With an in-depth look at the typical annoying man at the club, Random At Best mocks the BBC from start to finish. Writers and directors Mark Matechuk and Pat Maloney have managed to generate laughs.

The actor portrays the typical 'douche.' From his greased back hair to popped collar to sunglasses in the dark, Matechuk and Maloney have managed to have captured the essence of these men. What may be more amazing is that 'BBC Human Planet: The Douche' was filmed on no budget.

I'm sure this won't be the last time that Random At Best creates a hit.
