Link.
Personally, I think it's impossible to judge if he went too far or not because we don't know the girl. Bitching about your parents and acting like you have to do everything around the house isn't exactly original for a teenager. They all do it.
So if this was a typical teenage bitch session, he went too far.
However, if the girl is a constant problem and just doesn't get it, and the man has had enough, maybe this will wake her up.

I think it is pretty safe that when it comes to teenagers bashing their parents, the teen is wrong.
Also I would have put a smiley face pattern on the laptop. Not hard at all at that range.

Waste of what was probably a perfectly good computer. There's got to be better ways than that.

Eh, sounds like all he did lately was upgrade windows. The hardware was probably shit.

He wasted a laptop, immediately made people think he was nuts (which negates his entire point for them), and didn't give nearly enough history to really get viewers on his side. Plus, the majority of his audience was her FB friends, so his actions made her look like the victim. She's probably running around saying, "See?!? This is what I have to deal with!!!" and other teenagers, who we all know are the stupidest things on the planet, buy her logic.
I also know he went overboard because after he shot the laptop I started thinking, "I wonder what her stripper name will be?"

Without knowing more, I'd have to say he probably lost the high moral ground with this video. It has the sort of vibe one would get from a petulant teenager, like he's stooped to her level of immaturity by handling it this way. Whether that's because he needs to grow up a little himself or because he's trying to do something she might finally understand, I can't really say.
However, if he actually follows through with what he was saying, she may end up growing up a little because of it in the end.

Eh, I like the immature-bitch-shaming of it all.
If nothing else, she will learn that you don't put private shit on the internet in the name of attention-whoring. Might save her life someday.
edit - I also liked the, "You thought you could hide this shit from your father, who works in IT?" bit.

Here is the aftermath of the video, in that family.

Dad is a Marine.
Also someone called the cops on him but the cops liked what he did.
