The music video starts off with Søren,René,Lene,and Claus walking towards the camera with the words 'How R U Doin?' appearing on-screen in-beat with the music. Renéand Lene are then driving white trucks throughout a dirty,post-apocalyptic environment with Søren and Claus as passengers,respectively. After doing jumps,maneuvering through explosions,and crashing into various objects,the group walks away from the trucks - away from the camera - with the words 'How R U Doin?' appearing on-screen one last time.
