In the video, a man is seen kneeling on the floor, looking at a book that has different types of carpet samples. He points at the samples and then picks up a sample from the book and places it on the floor. He then picks up another sample and places it on top of the first one. The man seems to be comparing the samples and trying to decide which one to choose. The samples are of different colors and textures, and the man is carefully examining each one. The video seems to be a demonstration of how to choose the right carpet for a specific space.
