Before you take a peek at the following Facebook video, we recommend you taking a page out of the English poet Thomas Gray‘s book. And Ode on a Distant Prospect on Eton College, specifically.

Because in that book he coined the famous adage “ignorance is bliss” (“where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise” is how he put it). So apply that and you’ll enjoy the footage you’re about to see so, so much more.

If you don’t, however, you’ll see behind the curtain and realize someone played a video game and recorded whatever was on their screen. Which was a computer representation of a Secret Service limo driving backwards in some sort of training exercise (to escape a possible threat, we’re guessing?).

 

“Ignorance is bliss” not to be confused with “ignorance is strength”, which is from Nineteen Eighty-Four, Orwell’s dystopian masterpiece of a novel.

Also, it would’ve been nearly impossible for whoever was sitting in the backseat of that limousine not to lose their cookies after all that fiendish backwards driving. Right?
