Concreter's short Instagram video subtly hints at boy's face plant in wet cement

Dannielle Maguire

This is the greatest few seconds of film in the history of the planet. 

Instagrammer and apparent cinematic god Paul Ahern has given a huge gift to humanity in this footage from a work site yesterday.

This fantastic few seconds of footage has only been up for a day, but after clocking up 1225 views in that time we’re preeeeetty sure it’s headed into viral territory.

Opening with a shot of cement in desperate need of smoothing, Ahern pans to a small boy riding a scooter in the distance, subtly painting a picture of what may have happened.

Without explicitly stating what happened, Ahern’s filming techniques hint at hilarity.

Like the person Ronan Keating was singing about, he says it best saying nothing at all.

Look carefully at the cement and you'll notice the outline of what appears to be a scooter.

We're only speculating here, but it looks like the little fella may have had an accident on his morning commute to school.

As you can see from the indentations, it looks like the kid fully face planted into the wet cement.

It's plain to see where his hands and face landed in the drying pathway in what would have been a crushing blow. 

He probably had cement all over his hands, his face, sneakers and school uniform.

But apparently that didn't stop him, and he coolly continued along his way.

"He kept riding towards school…" Ahern captioned the video, with the hashtag #zerof---s.

Watch as he scoots away with his backpack of dreams pretending that nothing happened.

Beautiful stuff.
