179. Not nearly as edited as one would think...
I examined the video from start to finish and I noticed a few interesting things:

The time stamp when it first starts is 13:26. After a few moments, mid-sentence from Berg, it cuts to a time stamp of 2:16 (if I recall correctly). Then the hooded men begin to talk and once the kick him over, the screen cuts and the time stamp moves back into the 13:xx frame. A typical conspiracy theorist would probably think that it was a setup and each part was filmed separately. However, I believe there were two different cameras with two different timestamps, filming simultaneously. The editor just took the two feeds and edited them together, took the audio clip from one of the cameras, and did a quick dub over. The person probably really did not care if the dub was done correctly. Also, I through my film editing software, I moved back the audio to sync up with what actually was going on. It fits perfectly with every movement of the hooded men and Berg. I watch it closely and I DO see Berg struggling, constantly stiffening and unstiffening his body. I believe that the body was alive during its beheading. I think that if it were a conspiracy, there wouldn't be so many careless mistakes such as horrible editing with a bad audio dub. This oozes savageness. I don't think their message was to be conveyed in how well this video seemed to be real, but rather the fact that they did it. When one is committing this act, I highly doubt they are trying to make everything go perfect so that no one would think it is a conspiracy.
