A second viewing of the security footage (the break.com one seems better quality): http://www.break.com/index/office-worker-goes-absolutely-insane.html
I'm ready to say that there is a higher chance it is real than not.
Although he does take out at least one monitor that is facing us and it is off. But nobody was sitting at that desk in the beginning.
I could go either way on this being staged. My first though was that it was a viral video, but so far it has failed to market anything. Although I could see monster.com or something doing something like this.
Good find on the alternate videos, btw - I could see the people filming in the security footage and wondered if we'd ever see the cellphone view.
Regarding the monitors, I think if I had lost it and was going crazy, I might be more inclined to see the monitors that were facing me. Monitors facing away from me don't catch the eye as much.
If it's fake, it's well done. But if something like this happened in my office, we'd have a couple people pull out their cellphone cameras too, and if the company was small enough you KNOW all that stuff would end up on youtube. Curious that none of the footage came from a first person though.
Also... the holy grail is the cup that Christ used at the last supper - I've never heard anything about it catching His blood while he was on the cross. That doesn't even make sense.
Man the telegraph really needs to step up their journalism...
Indiana Jones was not obsessed with finding the holy grail, his father was. He only began his quest for the holy grail to go find his father, and only completed it to save his father's life.
@Christophe: Holy crap@ skating on the freeway. My friends used to do that in high school, they just wouldn't do it with loose fitting clothing next to tires that spin really, really fast.
I mean, he's courageous and all, but everyone wants to fit in.

So I've seen the video floating around, but the still shown in this news story is not from the same video that we've seen all over the place.

But that's just us.
