The World's Most Dramatic Dog [2] has been crowned, and it's a Pitbull who pretends to "faint" when his owner tries to clip his nails. In a video shared to Reddit, the Pitbull can be seen ignoring his owner [3], who's wielding a dog-nail clipper, until she finally takes his front paw and gets ready to cut down his first nail. Before she can do so, he tips his head back and appears to faint — really, he just falls backwards in slow motion [4], his eyes wide open and pleading with the person taping him to help him escape from this dreaded manicure. Watch his full Oscar-worthy performance in the video above.
