THIS DANISH MAN has just won 15 million Krone (€2.1 million) in the lotto and he’s in no rush to tell his two sons. One thing’s for sure: he’s getting it on tape.

Poul Hjortbøl sits down the pair of teens before giving them some cash, then an iPad each, a glass of wine, and… even more cash.

Then comes the big reveal, he’s won a lot more than he was originally letting on.

Don’t forget to turn on subtitles, for everything other than ‘F**K’ and ‘OH MY GOD’. They’re universal.
