It's unlikely this has been sitting for 12 years. EEV did a bit of an analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdKdQWhlNTY

The EEVBlog YouTube channel (someone else already linked it) covered the implausible shredding mechanism in the Banksy video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdKdQWhlNTY

In addition to the impossible angle, the position also does not fit a plausible paper path, and you can also see the curvature indicative of being stuck in the roller of a traditional shredder for days/weeks/months on the bottom of the paper coming out.

The video was made by Banksy. Why do people trust it?

Makes you wonder how the previous owner could have not noticed the shredder. "There is a slot at the bottom of my insanely valuable Bansky artwork's frame and I can see parts of a machinery through it, but it probably doesn't mean anything."

It'd already been noted that the frame was unusually thick

I like this analysis from EEVBlog more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdKdQWhlNTY

Nice one. Here is the "Strip Box" video he showed at the end: https://vimeo.com/92609964

Those blades that have no way to be shredding mechanism made me wonder too.
