    There’s a documentary series, “How To by John Wilson,” that’s on HBO (at least in the US), and it’s basically a Nathan Fielder style absurdist look at the world, with a bunch of real world footage edited together, sometimes with a voiceover, for comedic effect.

    But one of the episodes has him going out to figure out why people roll coal, and he interviews a guy who does it, who cannot string together any coherent thought behind it. It’s amazing television.
