@@TwentyGX I'm impressed with how well the drums held up. I mean, they're designed to be struck, but that's a hell of a drop to be doing almost half a dozen times.
As an unpaid and untrained lawyer, representing the drums and cymbal, I present to the court evidence that my clients did not fall off a cliff, rather upon close examination, they were thrown off a cliff. We are suing those who threw my clients off.
Objection! The allegation that the prosecutor's clients are inanimate objects are irrelevant. The defendant clearly places the drums and cymbal on a slope near the edge of a cliff which then proceeded to fall off the cliff. I rest my case.
What you see is my client trying to keep the two drums and cymbal from jumping off the cliffing and trying to harm an individual on the ground. What you see is not them being thrown, but my client trying to grab them in the air.
