Did he get good hits?

Since he unintentionally discharged a firearm twice without an identified intended target, by definition he got two hits on one or more unintended targets.

Whether those hits were good or not is a matter of opinion.

am I think only person who thinks the video may be staged? the trip just seemed very over exaggerated, the message is the same regardless though.

If it was, he was even more reckless and less with it than he looks if it was a straightforward accident.

Who knows? Maybe, I just have a suspicious nature. ;-)

You could well be right because I didn't see anything the guy was doing that was worth preserving on video. Then again, the clip was so short that whatever happened around the incident might have helped it make sense as a video subject other than a stated incident.

Without further information, we'll probably never know for sure.

I showed this video to my 13 year old son. I planned to point out how reckless and stupid the guys were. I didn't have to,
before I could say a word he said "What's that guy laughing for? That's not funny, it's dangerous."

I was pretty proud of him.
