Cheap vs. Expensive Jet Skis

As you guys know on this channel, we like to build very odd one-off machines that most of the time have never been built before. We think for good reasons. But lately, some things have been happening to us where we end up building something and then find out it was built long before and they just discontinued making them. So today, that's what we're gonna be testing out. We found a Scramjet. This is basically like our Evojet, except it was produced back in the year 2000. For one year only, we're gonna be testing it today against our $14,000 jet ski, being that this one costed 1,500. We wanna see how they compare. This thing was only made for one year? Yeah. Wow, it really must suck. Well, I mean, you look at the hovercrafts, they didn't last very long. Yeah, but they at least get like four years out of them before they figure that out. They didn't last very long. If this thing just rolls over, we're gonna know like, okay, it was clearly just super dangerous. That's true, that's a good point. I think in 2000, they could have came up with a better hood prop than this stick. What about the wet bikes? The wet bikes, those were a short run as well. Yeah, that was even shorter run with us. We built a wet bike that actually worked much better than those. Typically, the problem with these older versions of whatever we buy is the engine. But check this out, dude. This is amazing. Oh man, it fired up instantly last time. So this thing's got 50 horsepower, as said on the sticker. And our EvoJet over here has 100 horsepower. It's pretty much just a Sea-Doo Spark with a custom top on it, but Sea-Doo Spark hull and that Sea-Doo Spark motor in it, a little hopped up. Basically, just like a go-kart, but a jet ski. It's like a jet ski go-kart. So yeah, we thought this was pretty sweet, and then we came to find out that they'd made one of these before, 20 years prior. This thing works pretty good. We'll see if that thing does too, or probably not, being that they never made them again. That one honestly sounds better. Did you hear that two-stroke revving up? I knew you'd like that part of it, Evan. All right, let's see if we can back these things down. Luckily, there's not a crowd today. You guys should have a drag race launch race. Let's see how badly both of us can do this. Oh, that's... What? That is not the attitude to have. Go! Oh, shit. Oh! Oh, Ken! Ken! Oh, Ken! Yo, Ken's on a rock! Ken! Oh, shit. I gotta say, it wasn't the prettiest backup job, but I got in the water first, and first is all that matters here. The brakes kept frickin' engaging on this. Okay, Evan, blame it on the equipment. Magnum. Dude, this thing is just branded so aggressively. Like, it better perform. All right. Let's hear this thing start. See, dude? It fires right up. I'm not gonna lie, Ryan's jet ski is actually pretty fast. Oh, my gosh! Ha, ha! Dude, he just cleared the wake. That's a hard landing, though. Oh! He flipped it! Oh, my God, he flipped it. He's going under! Ow! Evan, get in! What is it? There's nothing I can do, and I can't even swim! Get in! I'm at the rear. Flip the boat! Dude, ah, f**k me! You got it? Is there a wrong way to flip this, Mike? Wait, nope. That was the right way, I think. Oh, my gosh! Bro! That was quick! What just happened? Dude, that was... I wasn't trying to. That was funny. Oh, my God, that was funny. There's two feet of water in here right now. Going under. I'm not gonna lie. It's not bad. I don't know if it went up to the engine. We did flip it the right way. A little premature on the braking it, though. My bad. It's all good over here, baby. What the f**k, Ryan? Dude, I was just trying to be cool. All right, so we're pulling the scramjet to this little axis over here. We're gonna get up on shore and hopefully dump all the water out and then be okay. All right, I'm gonna test fire it. Oh, that's bull. There was water in there. Whoa! There was water in there. Yeah, there was a lot. Yeah. Good thing we didn't try and start it. We don't need any of these, do we? Like, these nuts and bolts at the bottom? I think those are just extras. Yeah! There we go. Nope. She's gonna be unhappy for a few minutes. Don't worry about that. We'll get her cleaned out. Dude, I love this thing. That was so much water. It looks just 100% unpleasant. I love catching air, but that looks terrible. It's like you're waiting for a jet ski. It's like I've seen this movie before. Five minutes ago. I'm sorry, I didn't think I was gonna get caught there. Who would've seen that coming? He might've tried to start it and it locked it up. Oh my. You know, if you're gonna ride something from the early 2000s, you gotta know how to wrench. You gotta have a whole team of people. Oh yeah. Man, I really suck at this jet skiing thing. Behind my buddy Ken, you're the biggest jet skier I know. I'll let him have his moment for the day. So that thing fits two people, Ryan? Yeah, it says two people are 380 pounds. You probably got room for Ken. Dude, this thing was already taken on water with just me. I'm just worried if it tips now, you guys are gonna be stuck. You're good, you're good. Dude, you guys fit in there like a glove. All right, so we give Ken a bunch of shit because we did a speed dating video with him and he just started lying. Telling all these girls his favorite thing to do is jet ski. So what are your hobbies? So I do a lot of water sports, like jet ski. Jet ski? He lies extremely. You like to jet ski? Yeah, I do lots of jet ski. Now he's lying some more. Jet ski. He's jet ski left the lift three times this summer. So now we always say that he's the biggest jet skier in the group. I am physically the biggest jet skier in the group. Physically. That is a pretty easy sell. You're trying to pick up a chick to say you love jet skiing. Odds are they probably like jet skiing too. It took you guys a few months but everyone's coming around to it. The only thing is it never worked out between you and your girl. You know, maybe it just wasn't meant to be. Yeah. Gavin told the truth the whole time and he's still dating his girl. The mom chaser though. Ken chose the playboy lifestyle. Yeah, Ken goes for quantity, not quality. I think I'm gonna need to up the security. This thing's almost sinked twice today. If it's gonna sink, I think it'll be right now. I am legitimately worried if they tip now that they're gonna be like fighting each other to get out. Ken's having the time of his life. Oh! We gotta keep her wide open. Oh shit. We got it, we got it, we got it, we got it, we got it. Whoa! Freaking Ken and Ryan flipped it. That was so funny. Ken, how you doing? Sorry. All right, Ken, yeah. All right, so last summer, we tried to help Mike start up his own side business because as you guys know, Mike spends money like it's going out of style. So we're trying to help him bring in some additional funds. Where we went wrong is that we tried helping him start a water truck business. First off, not that many people are paying money to get a water truck to their house to water their flowers. Also, Mike just did a terrible job. He wasn't passionate about it. So we went back to the drawing board, we started thinking, what is something that Mike is passionate about? And it basically came to us immediately. Hot dogs. He loves hot dogs. The dude eats hot dogs like every day. So we figured, why not get him his own hot dog stand? So he doesn't know it. We're going to be surprising him with it, but we're going to suit this thing up, Mike's hot dogs, and then surprise him, hit the streets, and hopefully he can make a couple bucks on the side to, you know, spend on some drift cars that don't work. Help fund his lifestyle. I am a little nervous he's going to get high on his own supply, dude. I am a little worried about that as well. We're going to have to be very clear, like Mike, you're here to sell the hot dogs, not eat them. All right, check this thing out. We picked up this food cart stand off of Facebook Marketplace. But right now, it's got this shaved ice sign on the side of it. So this is what it used to be used for. So we're going to swap that out for Mike's hot dog stand. We've got a hot dog roller that we're going to throw on the top here. Have it fit and finish, so obviously Mike can provide his customers with the best experience. He's got his face on the picture. Yeah, the legendary hot dog picture. And naturally, Mike's hot dogs, I got that dog in me. You better tell him to keep the dogs out of them. Today, he will have to. All righty. Well, you obviously can't have a hot dog stand without a hot dog roller. Mike's unit will be fully set up and good to go. It's like a glove, dude. It's perfect. All right, so we got a 30 dog, hot dog roller over here for Mike, brand new. He's going to be pumped about that. Probably going to put that in his office when he's done with this. Hot dogs! Get your hot dogs! She's done, and she turned out absolutely amazing. There's no doubt in my mind, Mike's going to sell hundreds, if not thousands of hot dogs. We probably should get some brakes on this thing. We're going to have to tell Mike to bring a wheel chock. He's going to have to stick one of his extra dogs under the tire. A little walk around of the Mike's hot dog wagon. Obviously, decals everywhere. Of course, you got your menu. He only sells hot dogs. $1 per dog. Keep it simple, it's already been perfected. If you come around the back here, he's got his hot dog roller. Going to be keeping the dogs fresh. Of course, a sink, because he makes sure he washes his hands before he's handling the wieners. And then a little spot here for some condiments, and that's probably all he needs. Before, there used to be a hitch hooked onto this, and you could pull it with a vehicle. Well, we want Mike to be able to go mobile with it. You know, be able to hit the sidewalk and serve as many people as he can. So this way, you just basically just pull it along. It's like a chariot, kind of. Hot dogs! Get your hot dogs! Hot dogs! $1! All right, we're going to load her up, and then go surprise Mike with it. Something tells me he's going to probably shed a tear. This is definitely one of the better gifts that we've ever given Mike. Ken gets one of these every other day. So this would mean nothing to Ken, but to Mike, Mike doesn't really get gifts very often. He loves buying stuff. I mean, he buys himself something at least twice a day, three times a day. As far as getting gifted things, he should be very appreciative of this. All right, Mike, so last summer, we tried to start a new business for you. The water truck did not go very well. Right, and I really had a tough time when I was getting jobs. They were like, the graphic, man. You can't have that around my house. That's really what did me dirty. Right, so we went back to the drawing boards, and we thought, well, what's the best business that Mike could possibly be in? So we went ahead, and we got you this. Holy sh... Wow! We got you a hot dog stand. What the heck, dude? Is this brand new? Yes. Yeah, bro. Wait, how do I drive it? No, you don't drive it. That's the thing, you pull it. Dude, the decals are actually insane. Isn't it nice? I cannot wait to start slinging hot dogs. You guys have no idea how rich I'm about to get. People are not gonna know whether to call me Hot Dog Mike or Money Mike, because I'm gonna have both. You're gonna be both. Here's the thing, though. $1? Yeah, we figured, keep it simple. Hot dogs, that's all you need. What more do you need than a hot dog, right? I love that. You need chips? No, just buy another hot dog. No. And then, why charge $2, $3 to make more money when you could sell them for $1 and get more hot dogs in people's mouths? All right, let's get to town. All right, where's Mike? Are you coming to your hot dog here, or what? Yeah, we're waiting for you. Why are we doing all this work for his business right now? That's true friendship. You know how it goes. If you give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. If you can teach a man how to fish, he'll eat for the rest of his life, and that's what we're doing here with Mike. You know, he needs a little bit of help with the business and the fish. Teach him how to show up on time. This is step one, showing up on time is about step 50, right? Yeah. Dalton, don't be getting in any altercations now today. Last time we were here, Dalton got attacked. So Mike is also banned, and possibly all of us, we're not entirely sure yet. We'll probably find out. From a certain block on downtown Fargo, because he rode an e-bike over the bench. So I'd imagine if he has an illegal hot dog stand parked out on, he's getting to go to jail today. All right, Mike, day one of your new business. Don't be intimidated by the other food trucks over there. Yeah, they're a lot bigger, nicer. They actually drive under their own power, but they've been doing this a little bit longer for you. You gotta work your way up. Okay, so we got you this apron, and then obviously the hat. That is ridiculous. You gotta look the part. Oh my God. All right, don't do that. You're gonna scare customers away if you start doing that. Si boys. You look like you're hungry for a hot dog. No. What? Where's my old employee, Ryan? Where is Ryan? I manage the detail shop. He always told us he was the manager. He was in charge a couple times. A couple times he was in charge. That makes more sense. Manager. So Mike, the biggest thing about selling hot dogs is most people, I know this is gonna be super hard to believe, but most people don't actually wanna buy hot dogs. I know. So you're gonna have to learn how to sell. Gosh, we should've pulled up to the baseball game or something. We should've got you a Grant Cardone class or something like that. How to sell. So here's the big thing. People are going to avoid you. So you have to yell, hot dogs, hot dogs, and then they're gonna try and not make eye contact with you, and you're gonna have to get in their face and yell, hot dogs! There you go. Just whatever you do, do not do that whole hot dogs thing. I won't do that. Oh, here we go, Mike. Here we go. You guys need a hot dog? No, thank you. Had to ask. This is going well. What are you gonna tell them when they ask what kind of hot dogs these are? Gourmet. The good ones. Get your hot dogs here! Hot dog! Gourmet hot dogs, $1. Can't beat the price, can't beat the flavor. You guys need a hot dog? No. Hey, I do gotta up my selling game here. What would make a person want a $1 hot dog? All about the selling. When you don't got a good product, you gotta sell them on it. No, that's the worst part. Once the money's in your pocket, who gives a shit if they like the hot dog? Are they good? Yeah, they're good. Okay, I'll get a hot dog. Hey, let's go! My first sale ever! Ever? Ever! Yes! You want one? I'll take two. Let's go. Okay, Mike. One or two? Two for you. Hell yeah. Perfect. Always wanted one. Never had one? I'll take a hot dog truck. I wouldn't call it a truck. More of a wagon. I would say a wagon. I was standing on the way over there, guy walks by, looks at me, and I was kind of looking at the stand so he could tell I was interested in it. He goes, actually a damn good hot dog for a dollar. Mike's off to a hot start. Hopefully he carries this momentum. That was a great start. This is easy, dude. Way easier than being a YouTuber. Yeah, you've already made four bucks. I know. Yeah, I gave the guy a deal on the last one for 80 cents. How much do they cost per package? Is he losing money or making money? He's losing money. By the time he bought the condiments and the buns, it was over a hundred bucks for him. Big group here. We need dollar hot dogs. No one needs a hot dog? You guys like a $1 Mike's hot dog? A what? A $1 Mike's hot dog. Why not? One. $1 hot dogs. Mike's hot dog. You guys need a hot dog for a dollar. For a dollar? A dollar? Mike is really good at this. I think what sells most people is the fact that it's a dollar. They're like, a dollar? You can't buy anything for a dollar. You can't even buy a Tootsie Roll for a dollar anymore. You want one? Let's go. Are you Mike? Yes, I'm Mike. Let's go, Mike. These are Mike's dogs. For a dollar? I'm undermining all the other food trucks. Who doesn't love a dog? I don't know. You're onto something, Mike. So what's going on, guys? Nothing, he just started a new business. Here's $20 for you, sir. You don't, you want any hot dogs, though? I don't eat any meat. Good luck and hey, wish you all the best, man. Thank you. Okay, I have never seen a hot dog crawling like this, so it would be nuts. What a good spot. I'm not trespassing and business is booming. You guys need a hot dog? A dollar? Have a great night. I got one final thing, Mike, to really bring you to the next level. Like, you're killing it, but I feel like the only thing to bring you to the next level is a partner. Now here goes the hard part. Convincing Ken to be Mike's business partner. All right, Mike, business is absolutely booming, so I wouldn't be surprised if you don't want to split the profits. Ken, I feel like this is a great time for you to boost sales. You hold this hot dog sign and then you put on this ketchup costume. Like, the issue is Mike's not being loud enough. You need to cover some more ground, like down the block, hot dogs, that way. How is this Mike's bit and I still get dragged into it? Oh, how did I see this coming? You saw yourself turning into a ketchup bottle? I didn't see the ketchup bottle, but I saw everything. I was gonna be the mustard, but it didn't show up, so. Did it not show up or did you throw it away? Ken, don't worry. This will all be worth it. Mike's splitting profits with you. What, all $5? Yeah, 50-50. Don't complain about how much money we're making. It's gonna get better. All right, Ken, you go down there and start yelling. You gotta let the people know there's hot dogs this way. There's dogs. Ow! Oh, right in the eye! Oh, his first spin! How do you get through your day, Ken? I keep a very cocooned lifestyle sometimes. Get your hot dogs! They can't hear you. I don't yell. Just hot dogs! I don't yell. You got it. Hot dogs! Get your hot dogs! You're falling off. We need some hot dogs here. No, we have the hot dogs, Ken. Tore the sign a little. I tore them and I hit myself in the face. I'm not twirling it again. Ken, that's why you got the sign. Girls look like you need a hot dog. It's coming off a little aggressive. Yeah, you can't just be yelling that to women. I'm not a hot dog salesman. I feel like since I came in, we haven't made a single sale. I feel like this is a one-man operation. That's actually true. I feel like all I'm doing is hurting the business right now. Get your hot dogs! I think we're good. Two for one? Profits are just dwindling. Some revenue is better than zero. Hot dogs! Hey, you want a hot dog? It's a tough crowd on this block. You look mad that you can't even laugh. What is this? It's a hot dog cart. Who's Mike? Me! That's Mike. That's Mike? This is your hot dog stand? We don't have money, but we just wanted to see what this was. Okay. Well then, scram! I'm just kidding. Camera's from everywhere. What's this for? It's just his social. It was his first day. He wants to get some stuff for social media. Thank you, Mike. You guys are such good friends. Bye, guys! All right, this guy just bought all the rest of Mike's hot dogs, and now he's gonna just go and give them out. This is Mike's dream coming true right now. Everyone on a corner block eating hot dogs. I think we did it. We gave him a successful business. We helped him start a successful business. I would say, Mike, you are off and running, bro. Well, Mike, I'd consider that a successful day. What do we make? Not bad! Let's go! Business is booming for Mike's hot dog stand. Money Mike's about to spend his bag and then come back broke. All right, guys, made it to the mall. We have a meetup at Zumi's. If you guys didn't watch the last video, we are officially in 700 Zumi's retail stores across all of North America, so that's really sweet. And today, we have a meetup at our hometown Zumi's in West Acres Mall in Fargo, North Dakota. Look at the size difference here. Ab, get in the middle. I think we might need one more of these guys to keep Evan out of trouble today. They might end up throwing Evan out of the mall, honestly. Our own security. So, the real reason for security, normally we try not to publicize where we're going in case somebody doesn't like us and they meet us at this spot and jump us. Well, lately, after the Mom Chaser hit the channel, Ken has been like wrecking a lot of families, honestly. He's been stealing a lot of mobs from husbands. I need security everywhere I roll. Ken can't go anywhere anymore. He pissed off so many people. I don't know what I can do anymore. Oh my God, crazy. Oh my gosh, there's a lot of people here. That's crazy. Man, I think I gotta take a dump first. Oh, really? Do we have time? No. Did you shit your pants? Yeah, we're slow. Oh my gosh. It sounded like someone tore a potato sack. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. Wow, Ab, you're a lot shorter than I thought. Yeah, you know, I didn't get any taller. Every time, dude, poor guy. Hey, usually he gets smellier, so dig that, probably. Biggest thing to look for today is just any good-looking mom that's coming in and then like a pissed-off guy that's like kind of falling behind her. The mom is here for Ken, and then the husband is just here because he didn't trust the mom going alone. All right, I just want you to be prepared. ♪ Hey, mommy, you a hottie, got a body, yummy, yummy ♪ ♪ You so naughty, active, funny, you so sweet, got me, got me ♪ Hey, thanks for coming. Sorry about him. You're lucky. Thank you. You're lucky that the security guards are here, Ken. Who's this guy? Hey, how you doing, buddy? Good, how are you? So they're just letting anyone in now? I couldn't get in. I've been down here for half an hour. Yeah, I heard you were signing autographs and everything. Sign my shirt. A grandpa of the people. They're not dangerous. There haven't been anyone. Yes. Are these rats? Yeah. They're kind of cute, though. What are their names? Would you guys sign them? Chester and Cheeto? Yeah. Would you sign them? I don't think that's legal. Yeah, I don't think we can do that. It peed and pooped in his hands. He's like, oh, it's peeing. Oh, it's pooping. Do you have any other tattoos? No. That's fire, actually. Tattoos. That was quick turnaround time. Look at that. That is sick. I should go a little big on the life. I'm sorry about that, but it looks good. I love it. I'm glad that you like it. Thank you. Dude, we appreciate you guys. Roll out. Thank you, guys. That was absolutely insane. Shout out to everyone that came out and shout out to Zoomies for making that happen. We are in 700 Zoomie stores around the entire country and Canada. So if you want to go to your local Zoomies, find some C-Boys merch and pick it up, we'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you guys so much. On to whatever we're doing next. Let's go, Mike. Shout out, Zoomies. Big day. We are finally announcing the winner of our R8 giveaway. We ran this last month and now it's time to give the winner a call. Ken, am I doing the honors? Dude, honors are all yours. Somebody's life is about to be changed. Like, this is $150,000 car. You either have like the coolest car ever or they could sell it and have $150,000. And they're also going to be getting 10 grand cash. Yeah, so 160 grand. Give me a good day for whoever this is. We don't get to select the winner. It's completely done randomly by a sweepstakes company. So, this is our first time hearing who it is. And the winner of the R8 is, Zachary Monerjohn from Metairie, Louisiana. Congratulations, Zach. We'll just call him Zach. I absolutely butchered that, but we still don't know how to read. I think that's our first Louisiana winner. This is a great car for Louisiana. It's nice down there. Okay, we got the phone number. We're going to give him a FaceTime. Hopefully he's- Hopefully he's got an iPhone. Yeah, hopefully he's a normal human and has an iPhone. All right. Woo! He's so excited! Answer your phone, buddy. He ain't answering. It's not looking promising. He ain't answering. No, most of the time telemarketers don't FaceTime you. We'll just spam call him. Sure, it's still going. It's still going. Oh! Start calling him like normal. He's going to think it's an emergency. It kind of is. He just won an R8. He does have three days. Phone has been forwarded to voicemail. Hey, Zach, answer your FaceTime. I promise it's worth it. Yeah, it doesn't sound like- A telemarketer wouldn't say that, right? I've got a great deal for you. I mean- He's going to block my number. I know, yeah. Come on, Zach! No! Oh my God! Who is this? Don't tell him who it is. Be like, come on. Just answer. You'll see. Oh my God, dude, he's putting up a fight. Oh my gosh! All pass, LOL. All right, he passed! I- Are we able to switch it? Promise you, you don't want to pass. Well, you hit it with the all pass, LOL. I feel like this one would be like if Ken won something. My message won't send. He just blocked me. Should I call him from my phone? He just blocked me! This is the first time this has ever happened. Give her another shot. Oh, oh, oh! He's calling! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. He's calling. Hello? Oh, what the? Dude, are you still passing, bro? Are you passing on it or what? No, well, I'm so... I was like, who is 701? I don't know anybody 701. Well, congratulations, brother. You just won an Audi R8 in $10,000 cash. You're freaking lying. Dead ass, brother. Well, if you claim it, you did say that all pass, LOL. No, I'm taking it. If you had to put into words how you're feeling right now or how you're going to be feeling driving that car, try. I live in a city where potholes can fit us. This guy's already thinking about the potholes. Oh, no! If you don't want to keep the car, you want to sell it and just cash out, that's just fine. That doesn't hurt our feelings either, so. Okay. I don't want vacation, but I'll unblock y'all. All right, thank you. I'll text you all the details, but congratulations, brother.
