Androidpk's misleading clickbait description made me frown. It's a video of AFTER the kid was eaten by piranhas.

Eaten is past participle.

If I say "here is a video of a chihuahua eaten by a snake" you don't expect the video to start with a snake that already has a lump in it, do you?

Yes. Grammar.

Being is the key word you are missing, Tenlaar.

[Tenlaar]

I would include the being, but not everybody uses proper grammar. My point is that even without the word being included, the normal expectation is that it is a video of the act.

Are we going to need to make a poll about this? Somebody make a poll.
