Short selling - TBS open teaching

In this video, comedian Sammy Obeid (host of 100 Humans on Netflix) in collaboration with TBS Business School uses humor to explain the logic behind short-selling of stocks, both the mechanics of the short sale and its mathematical interpretation.
WARNING: do not watch this video if you are offended by partial nudity or jokes about stalking.

An entertaining example of short selling features in the film Trading places and is discussed at length in http://im-an-economist.blogspot.com/2014/01/short-selling-explained-case-study.html
