The video is a humorous look at a Kickstarter campaign for an "air umbrella" - a concept that was supposed to offer a powerful stream of air for protection against rain. The narrator mocks the campaign, highlighting the absurdity of the product and the numerous comments from a single backer, "Michael Superbacker," who has been leaving comments on the campaign page for years, asking about his promised umbrella.
The narrator then attempts to test the umbrella concept using a garden hose, an electric leaf blower, and a shower head, showing that it can successfully repel rain. However, when tested with a real rain shower, the umbrella fails to provide adequate protection. Despite its flaws, the narrator offers the umbrella to Michael Superbacker if he leaves a comment on the video, indicating that the whole video is a mockery of the Kickstarter campaign and its product.
The video ends with a pitch for Bluehost's website builder, showing how easy it is to create a website using their tools. The narrator creates a website about technology, demonstrating the use of the builder's features and highlighting its benefits.
