Funny Chronometer

So I had a task to implement a timer in my app, I just added a chronometer widget in my layout and was starting with implementation in my activity.

Thanks to the autocomplete, I saw two methods, isCountDown() and isTheFinalCountDown() and I wondered what exactly is different, which made me curious and I opened the source code, Chronometer.java and was really laughing at the implementation of latter.😂😂

public boolean isTheFinalCountDown() {
    try {
        getContext().startActivity(
                new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://youtu.be/9jK-NcRmVcw"))
                        .addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_BROWSABLE)
                        .addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_DOCUMENT
                                | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT));
        return true;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
    }
}

This method basically opened “Europe -The Final Countdown” music video on youtube.😂😂
