Flashlight Versus the Darkness

Them: Aren’t you scared of being out there all alone? Me: Nah I’ve got a flashlight What’s a flashlight gonna do??

A nighttime video shows someone sweeping a flashlight across a dark, empty dirt path and scrubland. The joke is that the speaker confidently treats a flashlight as protection from being alone, while the ominous darkness and Alice In Chains’ “Man In The Box” make that confidence seem hilariously inadequate. It works as a reaction to false bravery or using a flimsy solution against a genuinely scary situation.
