Classic.

He gave it a very quick rack of the slide at an angle he could not possibly have inspected the chamber and mag well. That is not "clearing" a gun.

That is a classic since he is lecturing about how he is trained to use a gun.

So it's okay to point a 'unloaded' weapon at your head?

Remind me not to go shooting with you.
