Two lucky items to note:
- It was a .22 rifle
- Squirrel didn't jump on his head

Sounds slightly better then he was fooling around and shot himself in the foot. Instead of a squirrel he should have invented a dangerous animal, like a rabbit.

Suffice to say, he clearly didn’t completely think through his cunning plan :D
