The camera angels used in this video really give of that feel of youth. The opening down low shot of the teenagers running though a tunnel really feels mischievous and the smoky atmosphere backs that up. Being that they are in a pub which is usually considered as an adult atmosphere, and even though they are legally old enough to be there it just doesn’t seem right. Everyone is looking at them as if they are outsiders and are not wanted. The way that it eventually ends up in a fight is also a stereotypical view of their generation and there is lots of drama and blood shows that they were up for a fight at the beginning. At the end they escape in a typically childish way by jumping off the pub roof which also, likes the rest of video gives of the same adolescent feel.
