Exellent!
Do the same with c:/windows/system32 and your system was break down immediatly.
If your are very paranoid with your data, you test this:
# find / -iname ".*" -exec shred \{\} \;

Good video, but tell me.. If the entire file system gets deleted, why does it say: "Cannot remove.." like 200 hundred times during the video?
BTW, can't see why it's supposed to be funny that the kitty survived.. If it was the only thing left, maybe..

@Aliquantulus
Because in Linux practically everything is represented as a file on the filesystem even if it's not a file at all. This includes things like processes, devices, network interfaces and so on and so forth. That's what most of those messages are. Obviously you can't delete your keyboard, your mouse, your internet connection, the systems random number generator, etc...
