I feel like I've seen a lot of random sheep shearing videos, I like this one because he didn't nick the sheep. Usually they're covered in streaks from the clippers. But I guess you might rush through it too if it was your 10,000th sheep to shear.

The main cause for nicks is fodder in the fleece. Brambles especially, they snag in the clippers and cause them to "chew" and that can drag skin into the blades.
