OK, I watched about two minutes of the video.
If you are going to bother to make a video like this, turn the radio off!

Having said that, bolt bagging, and notes, and even digital camera pictures are a very good idea. I had to replace the head gaskets on my Ford Aerostar, 4.0 L engine. I had 39 steps of careful notes, before I got down to a recognizable engine block, and heads.

If I didn't tag the bags of bolts and take all the photos I did on my cars I would have had a hell of a time putting them together. The last being the convertible top irons on my Gran Sport, holy cow those things are complex. I took a ton of photos and without them I would have been up the creek without a paddle.

It could be worse, I could be listening to reggaeton.

No music, no worky! Don't touch my dial!

the worse is putting someone else's stuff back together and all the bolts are all dumped in a cut open radiator coolant jug. I could understand on small jobs but not on big jobs where you know it's gonna sit in the shop for a while while your memory erases the images you stored in your head. Bagging bolts save soo much time.
