A first-person anecdote by Tim (video creator Timothy Schucker) recounting how his best friend Kai, on his first day selling life insurance door-to-door in Onslow County, North Carolina, had a large homeowner pull a gun and point it at Kai’s forehead; Kai left unharmed and continued calling doors. The clip is narrated in a conversational, oral storytelling voice.
My best friend had a gun pointed at his head. His very first day selling life insurance, I remember knocking doors and getting a phone call from my best friend Kai. He goes, hey, Tim. So I just had a gun pointed on my face. And I'm like, what? So basically what had happened is he went to knock on this door that was really far back in the woods. It was in Onslow County, North Carolina. He goes up to the house with a mailer and knocks on the door. A large guy answers the door. Kai goes into his routine and he says, hey, so I'm looking for so and so, you know, whoever's name it was on the mailer. So the guy calmly turns around, pulls something out of his back pocket and points a gun straight at Kai's head, like literally to his forehead and says, I suggest that you leave now. And as you can imagine, Kai left. And I asked him like, so, is everything good? Are you alright? And Kai goes, yeah, everything's fine. But anyway, I gotta go. I gotta hit the next doorknob and it hangs up.
