A central tenet of Nathan Fielder's philosophy continues to be "if I watch a tree fall in the forest but I didn't film it, how can I be sure later that it made a sound?" (the answer ofc being "painstakingly grow a tree of the same species under similar conditions and film that one being cut down").
