I didn't expect it to be hilarious. No wonder it went viral.

But as someone else pointed out, the coup may have happened in the middle of the night at ~4am or so. Is this really showing the actual coup, or just the aftermath?

I mean...what is the precise moment when a coup happens? I would argue that a military caravan to a central govt building is still pretty coup-esque.

I agree that a coup doesn't happen instantly - but this video has captured a unique moment of history if it's showing military forces bloodlessly capturing a government checkpoint. On the other hand, if it's merely showing military vehicles passing through a military checkpoint? There are probably hundreds of videos showing that.
