00:34quicksand all the time yeah like don't don't you feel like any kind of uh trail walk you might have
00:40gone on no that there should be quicksand along the way if movie life was reality we all would
00:48have been stuck in quicksand at some point in our lives yes yes it was something they showed often

02:03hard-earned money on a rope ladder you'd never use my god no but i'm but it was one of those things
02:10in school they told you it is funny because i remember being a kid and being high up and looking

02:53all prepared made my own nunchucks yeah right the turtles karate kid three ninjas like there was there
03:01was it was huge when we were impressionable i definitely made my own nunchucks out of broken
03:06hockey sticks uh i also had my own throwing stars yep you were ready my brothers had all that stuff
03:13too it's really popular yep there was a time when every kid could get ninja stars there's a like it
03:20was i had legit ninja stars i had like several of them yeah that could maim and injure it's so
03:25they were super easy to get there was no background check no they were like what are you six how did
03:31people gotta kids get them you can get them that's like yeah any kind of i was wondering i don't know
03:36where my brothers got there so for sure there's usually a bad kid in your in your class that could
03:40get them and then he would sell them to everybody in the school yeah at least in my experience that's
03:44what it was i said i thought for sure i would get my dong cut off lorraine and boffitt style oh man
03:48remember when that was like the biggest story oh yeah oh yeah if you were a young impressionable guy
03:54i just would have thought that was a big concern in life seeing that as a kid and being like i can't
03:58even wrap my mind around that there's no way i can say i was the first time you were exposed to a
04:05wiener being chopped off yep you're like that happens yeah honestly before then i mean then
04:10since now doing the show i've learned it happens quite a bit yeah uh but then that was the first
04:14time i ever thought my god this is a worry for some people stop the whole country it did
04:19it was a big story just because of that yeah it made it huge uh this person said i was definitely
04:26afraid that masturbation would cause blindness when i got glasses at 15 oh it just lined up at a
04:32right time for that guy right dude for a while i thought i was gonna grow hair on my palms yeah
04:38the furry hands i was like that's i'll shave it i guess yeah once it starts growing in i'm like i
04:43can't say no to this well that's the that's the problem so that guy like was losing his sight
04:49but i guarantee he didn't stop right he's like i'm just gonna keep going i can't believe i'm
04:54god i'm going blind my vision's already chipping away i might as well see it through
