The video starts with the dead lad standing patiently and then suddenly screaming in excitement as the fire engine with its lights flashing comes round the corner of his street.

Ryder starts running around in excitement, screaming his own name and sparking laughter from the people standing around nearby.

Just as the video ends and the fire engine approaches, a woman’s voice can be heard saying: “Look, they came for you, wave to them.”
