Not bad, editing needs to be clean, and flow better, the content was good, there was some good stuff in there:
I liked nearly all of it, the puclic stuff was great, in the cafe, on the street, light tubes; not so bad, fire stuff was ok but you know needs some more original stuff, sounds rich coming from me, but yeah more origianl stuff, and just put a little more effort into it to make your stunts even better.
Apart from the minor flaws your a good group, you have a nice variety of stunts, just need some more effort...by this I mean jump harder you know.
Also using the DR song, like fatmatt said, they didn't copyright it, but you used it only a month or so after it's release, there was also a bit of DR's style in there.
Anyway good stuff, just work on the things people have said
At first I thought you were Sectioned but then I could tell.

I enjoyed it, but should have been shorter, the same lighttube style thing was done like 4 - 5 times, I got bored towards the end, other than the length there was some pretty sweet footage.

h8 u.
Why the fuck do DR always get ripped for songs. It fucking sucks. We bring out a video with a song we've carefully chosen and a bunch of groups feel the need to steal it. It makes me fucking angry.
Comments on video in no particular order. I'm just gonna type what comes into my head.
"I can't wait for Word to see that tag and LOL at you."
"Why did they use the Billy Talent song?"
"That bush jump sucked."
"Whats an editing?"
"Why did they use the Billy Talent song?"
"Haha, that kid got his hand set on fire."
"Snow hurts loadz."
"That tag sucked too."
"OMG, drinking under 21."
"Cool...They did that quick switchy thing as the music got fast paced...Like us."
"Box of books. k."
"That kid had no idea what he was doing. Instead of trying to pull off the clothes wouldn't you go straight to the water?"
"lol human."
"k I get it already, hes blind."
"Woah theres credits...And they even managed to use the same font as us."
"Why did they use the Billy Talent song?"
In conclusion, I'm saddened and disapointed.

Ok, a few things.
Gotta get this out of the way first, I know its been mentioned already, but ripping songs sucks majorly. I know DR havent exactly patented that song, but releasing a vid with the same song after such a short length of time (what, we released ours barely 2 months ago? Less probably) only serves to show that you have no clue. I could understand if it was like 5 months down the line, but come on, our vid is still on our front page for fucks sake.
Second, I don't see the need to have 3 shots of that shitty tag. Seriously, if you're gonna dedicate that many shots to your group's tag, at least make it good.
Third, the fire stunt - it would've been an average stunt if your group hadn't flipped out over it. That guy totally lost his cool when he realised how big the flames were. Ripping your clothes away intead of jumping into the stream of water? I'm not Einstein, but I know which option sounds better. Furthermore, having the camera guy yelling like a step-daughter being touched for the first time doesn't help either. "Holy fuck!" Holy fuck indeed. He went on fire. Just like the stunt was SUPPOSED to go. Image file not present in the recovered backup
I know you'll think I'm only ragging on your group cos you used that song, but I'm not. Apart from the problems mentioned, it would be an average vid - raw footage filmed on a low quality camera. Exactly what homegrown should be. However, the fact that you show blatent disregard for other groups by copying stuff, as well as acting in a way that really only degrades the quality of your vid, really should make you seriously consider making another effort at releasing this 'episode'. It's not exactly 'your' best ever, is it? Maybe you should credit the groups you ripped, too.

How can you "rip off" a song from someone who never owned it?
that music arguement is retarded.
The video was pretty much boring. All the stunts have been done before, but better.
The song was gay and irritated me through out the whole thing too.
I can't stand mix-ups anymore I think

aw man, that's happened to at least 10 of our vids.
from consumptionjunction to littlemidgets. They've all ripped our entire videos and cut off our URLS so they can get hits.
we've also had some songs we've used, used by others. I just figure they didn't see our video or something.
Or like, if I wanna use a song that has been used recently or anything, I'll usually ask the person who used it first if they mind.

Ok, a few things.
Gotta get this out of the way first, I know its been mentioned already, but ripping songs sucks majorly. I know DR havent exactly patented that song, but releasing a vid with the same song after such a short length of time (what, we released ours barely 2 months ago? Less probably) only serves to show that you have no clue. I could understand if it was like 5 months down the line, but come on, our vid is still on our front page for fucks sake.
Second, I don't see the need to have 3 shots of that shitty tag. Seriously, if you're gonna dedicate that many shots to your group's tag, at least make it good.
Third, the fire stunt - it would've been an average stunt if your group hadn't flipped out over it. That guy totally lost his cool when he realised how big the flames were. Ripping your clothes away intead of jumping into the stream of water? I'm not Einstein, but I know which option sounds better. Furthermore, having the camera guy yelling like a step-daughter being touched for the first time doesn't help either. "Holy fuck!" Holy fuck indeed. He went on fire. Just like the stunt was SUPPOSED to go. Image file not present in the recovered backup
I know you'll think I'm only ragging on your group cos you used that song, but I'm not. Apart from the problems mentioned, it would be an average vid - raw footage filmed on a low quality camera. Exactly what homegrown should be. However, the fact that you show blatent disregard for other groups by copying stuff, as well as acting in a way that really only degrades the quality of your vid, really should make you seriously consider making another effort at releasing this 'episode'. It's not exactly 'your' best ever, is it? Maybe you should credit the groups you ripped, too.

lol I think this was actually the first review I've made. I tend not to, as I don't know anything about editing and therefore my opinion means jack shit.

You had no clue whatsoever what you were doing when you did those firestunts... did you plan at all ? safety?(its not hc to ignore safety) did you plan the camera positions and angles before you started filming ? how many cameras do you use ?
The pranks were kinda good badly filmed but still...
You should work on your camerawork and angles... It makes a clip much more entertaining if its well filmed with a cool angle(dont over do it) By a semifisheye lense or a widelense, theyre really cheap. And you should use atleast two angles on stunts that you consider big.
I think that introductions of teams you should be done in a fast pase...
The only thing that was wooah(HC) in the clip was the bigish flames in the bikefirestunt... which kinda was ruined by the bad camera work and the cameraman going "HOLY FUCK" and so on...
I didnt like the music.. the only cool editing effect was the fade picture on picture in the human flesh prank... But the editing in general was bareable... nothing special... just ok.
If I had to chose wether to buy or not to buy you DVD on the basis of this vid... I def. wouldnt by.
If I had to chose wether to watch episode5(if there will be one) or not on the basis of this vid... I would watch it.
