0:00 Why you lifting weights like you can carry an elephant? Why don't you go carry an elephant? >> I don't play I don't play lifting. >> Got you there. That would be hilarious if there was a weightlifting weightlifting game. >> Bench pressing game. >> Welcome back to another episode of Careful Boys. We're highly sensitive to the things people love. Today we're going to talk about passions that other people might have that we just don't freaking understand. Like I just can't get on board. >> You can't say cycling. >> Can't get on board. >> Bro, I I don't hate cycling. >> Can I tell you the one that I I I can't get just to top it off because I feel like this you guys will all agree. >> I don't understand the passion of these like guys with families and kids and they they just want to go off on their own and just get stuck and die in a

0:50 cave. >> They go, "Wait, what?" >> Like cave spalunking. >> Those dudes that are like extreme cave divers. Yeah. >> Oh, like underwater. They go into these little tiny crevices and they just get stuck and they're just dead. >> That's the point of doing it. >> It's not the point, but it happens. >> Yeah. >> Oh, >> that's the point of doing it. >> You know those >> you want to get stuck and die the worst way possible. >> Those guys that just want to go cave diving, >> but what's the point? You know, like skydivers, they're not trying to die, right? They're trying to just jump out of the plane, but then they take bigger and bigger risks, pull to shoot later, squirrel suit, whatever. Like the >> I think it's all adventure. Like what's the Are they trying to get into smaller and smaller holes? >> Is did they like cave diving before they had kids >> or were married? >> Cuz that's an escape. >> I want to be as far as away. >> They never did it before and then go through some midlife crisis and they're like, I need to I need to get into a

1:42 small crevice of a mountain. >> That is a crazy midlife crisis. >> Definitely. I guess would be on the line of like extreme sports, but it's so like >> things go wrong a lot. >> Nearly guaranteed >> that. I'm like, what? Cerrone told a story about it where he went cave diving and then the guy he was with he got like sketched out. He kicked up all the dust. >> Oh no. >> So he couldn't see anything. So they lost their way. So they got stuck and they're slowly like running out of oxygen. So it's like things like that that happen when you're having fun with the boys, but then it's very high. >> This is one of the most famous diagrams of a guy that got stuck in a cave. >> What the ████ >> So he literally went the wrong way. It's a dead end. They just couldn't get him out and he died in this position. >> Yeah. >> Is that underwater or that's >> Oh, it's just the just the regular cave. >> Oh, that's Wait, wait, wait.

2:32 >> They're not doing this in underwater like cave diving. >> Oh, I might be thinking of the wrong term, but uh >> spelunking. Is that what a word? >> I'm not even sure if spelunking is this extreme, but >> spelunking is what Batman does. >> But it's whatever. >> Cave crawling. Wait, what is spelunking? I might have used it. But like if you go on YouTube, those there's tons of like really cool stories with with infographics and maps that show you all the times this happens. And there's so many >> so they they couldn't get to him. I mean, how do you even get him out of that position? >> It's so in order for the next guy to try to get to him, then the next guy trying to reach him is at equal risk of being stuck. And on top of that, uh, if they even got like something harnessed onto him, it's in an angle that's almost impossible to like pull. >> You know what? I totally know what you mean, >> cuz I thought this was underwater cave diving cuz if you're doing that, you

3:22 could easily like run into some ████ If you're just crawling through tunnels, bro, >> it does go from like water to no water and like it it like changes up. And >> why can't he use the stuff that plumbers do when they look through pipes with the camera? Oh, the snake. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. But it's like it's that kind of like cave exploration where it's all thin tiny little >> so dangerous. >> Have you guys ever been in a cave like that? >> Yeah. It's scary, isn't it? Like it's so creepy. >> But I'm not that tight. >> I don't realize it is that scary or I'm doing something dangerous until after. And >> you for sure have not been in a cave like this. Your but your booty would not fit. >> That's >> No. closest one that I've done to something like this. Uh it was in Hawaii. It was like a cave that goes from this side to the other side and

4:12 momentarily you would see light. So you know there is sun on the other side. >> Nah. >> And then I was like, "Oh, how cool. How cool would it be back? >> How cool would it be if I can swim through through it?" I swim and then the tide comes and it all the water comes up. So, I'm going through something like this narrow and my back gets put against the the rocks. So, I'm stuck and I'm like, "F███, I don't even have air cuz I'm holding my breath." I thought I was going to go through in like 3 seconds and then I was like, "Oh, ████ Am I stuck?" And I was trying to like baby baby uh Finn Finn out of there and then the water kind of died down a little bit and then I went I was able to be released but it was a very scary maybe like 10 20 seconds and I was like I am definitely not going there again. But I did go farther to see the hole and see

5:02 like how crazy it looks. >> Well, that's that's my passionate uh hobby that I can't >> Yeah, that's terrible. >> Just can't identify with it. >> I didn't even know that was a hobby. >> This is like scares the ████ out of me, bro. >> Yeah. >> A passion this might rub people the wrong way. I never I never got into is uh people that play video games of the real thing. >> Wait, you mean like like Guitar Hero? Guitar Hero. >> Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Just go play guitar. >> No, but this is way >> I'm like, why are you doing that of that? Just go do that. >> That's true. Guitar Hero could >> It's different. >> I know, but I just don't understand. >> It's cuz they can't. What about shooting games? Like, >> oh yeah. >> Yeah. He goes, "Why don't you go shoot a gun?" >> I would just go shoot. >> Ah, >> but I'll see people that are actually

5:52 good at Guitar play Guitar Hero 2. And I'm like, "What?" I'm like, "Just go do more of that." That means it's clearly different. >> It's different. >> So, the thing is on me, I don't get it. >> No, that's fair. I've heard that a lot. >> That's funny. >> Imagine ████ Johnny Kim playing a space game or whatever. I'm like, >> just go over there. Go on the rocket. Do your thing. Do your >> That's probably the worst example you brought up. >> What if you're so obsessed that you want to golf all the time, but you can't always be at the golf range, so you just go home and you play the golf simulator. >> Does golf simulator sound cool? Or you can't go fishing because you're not at a lake. So you're at home. >> What if they did both? That's a complicated. >> Why are you lifting weights like you can carry an elephant? Why don't you go carry elephant? >> I don't play I don't play lifting. Got you there. That would be hilarious if there was a weightlifting weightlifting game.

6:42 >> Bench pressing game. >> Have you ever seen the flight simulator game where you're like a pilot? >> No, but that's not a real That's not a game. That's real. That's a simulation. >> Oh, so simulations. Okay. If it's accurate one to one, >> you can think of games that say >> and the purpose of it. >> Oh, okay. >> Like if the purp you know when you're like when you're >> or like those drifting games >> when you're using this because jet fuel costs so much. This is an easier way to get better at this. >> I can see why. But when it's like I just want to do this and this is like my me time >> and it's not like it I'm like just go play guitar. You already play guitar. >> What about Street Fighter when you're shooting fireballs? >> You can't do that in real life. >> Okay. So if you can't do it in real life. So maybe that's why they do like gun games and stuff like that because if you get killed in the game, you can't do >> So I get I I understand that. So like

7:33 Counter Strike Call of Duty, you can't throw bombs on people. So yeah, play that in the video game. >> You literally just LIKE GO SHOOT GUNS. I shoot guns. >> But the fact that it's a straightup guitar looking guitar and they're playing guitar songs, that's where it's like draws alive >> when it's the when it's the like almost exact miracle. Oh, how about rock band where you have a drummer? >> Yeah, that too, >> dude. >> Oh, immediately that >> we were we we did a ████ show out in Vegas uh a competition in high school and uh we was a drum line competition. We were at Buffalo Bills. That's when that the drummer part of the rock came out. My whole drum line. Oh, I can't wait. I'M LIKE, WHAT? WE JUST ████ COMPETED. What the what the hell? I'm like, you guys go ████ do I'm I'm going to go smoke weed and do normal ████ So, you think cooking games are dumb? >> He's just go cook lasagna.

8:24 >> Just go cook lasagna. >> Lasagna. >> I wish I understood. >> Well, a cooking game would be dumb if the controller was like a frying pan and you had to simulate real like cooking, >> but there's no food. >> That would be pretty dumb. How about How about You're going to love Sims then? >> I never even played Sims. >> It's just It's just living life. >> Just life. >> It's literally just living life. >> Yeah. Like you go get a job, you go clean the house. >> That's what's so funny about it. >> Like you wake up and you like floss and ████ >> Yeah. You brush your teeth, you go like pick songs that you play on your boom box, you go to the store, get some clothes, and you put them on in front of a mirror. >> Go to the gym. >> How come you don't just do that in real life? >> You should do that in real life. >> Everything in the game is meant to make you feel like, why am I ████ doing this? But it's so fun. >> Is there secret ████ Like, is it like GTA though where you could just sock

9:15 random people? >> You can if you want. What? What do you What do you How do you win? It's not meant for it. It's not It's not really like It's It's not I guess you can play it like that where you're like, "This is me and my life and I'm I'm imitating my life." But really, >> think about it like this. You remember back then when we had like tamaguchi and stuff like that or whatever? It's like, well, why don't you just get an actual chicken pet? >> It's cuz some things aren't practical to do. So, even with Sims, you're living real life, but in the game, you might be able to eventually get like a mansion. >> I see. or and or do things that you can't normally do yourself. Even though a normal human can technically do those things, you might not be able to eventually do that in your lifetime. >> I believe in you, Anthony. >> Thank you. Which is why I play Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, Flight Simulator, >> Bassmaster. My Sims is on another level, though, where it's not I don't do that anymore. What I do is I set up people on their track. Like I if I want this guy to be a freaking a brain surgeon

10:06 eventually, then I set him up on that thing and then I make him autonomous and then I move to the next guy. >> So then I create all these things and then eventually they live their own lives when you're not looking. So you can come back like months later and he has a grandchild who's now >> generationally they they move houses, they meet people. >> Ocron, dude, >> it's it's like having an ant farm. He's playing God. >> Yeah, it's like that. They should call it God instead of >> I can't do that with my life because I only got one of them s████. >> I believe in you, Ryan. >> I feel like you would have had a ton of these things because you're, you know, >> I already told him you can't say cycling. Now he's ████ dull. >> Don't you're a hater of everything. >> Like power walking. >> That's so funny you brought that. >> Oh, you just got winced. >> No, I don't. That doesn't that doesn't bother me, dude. I used to We I I heard you guys talking about cycling on one of the JK videos and you were like, "Oh, yeah, Nick hates cyclists." And now I'm

10:57 at a point where I'm like, I don't really care anymore, dude. >> How about him as a cyclist? >> How about um >> Take that back. Take that ████ back. >> What about uh people that practice Iikido? >> That's fine. Yeah. If you want to wear like a fencer mask and the kendo stick, right? Is that Iikido? >> That's Iikido. I thought I was You grab a finger and they ████ do a front flip. >> It's Steven Seagull. Oh yeah. Yeah. >> It's finger jiu-jitsu. Yeah. >> Honestly, it looks like fun. No, for real. It looks like fun. Like it looks like if you use it in the street, will you get beat up? Yeah, probably. But it's probably fun to do. You know what I mean? >> Mhm. >> You get with your boys. And >> what if your passion is backyard dog breeding >> or dog fights? >> No. >> N dude. You know, come on, man. That's not cool. You can't do that. >> Yeah. That's I I didn't even think that's just a crime, isn't it?

11:47 Is it? Is that a crime? That's a crime. That's a crime. >> On the same theme, you know, the ████ that pretend they got a horse, but it's just a broom. >> Oh, yeah. Hobby horsing. Hobby horsing. >> You don't like hobby horsing? >> You're ████ jumping over ████ fences and stuff. >> I kind of don't believe that's a real thing. >> I'm like, just go ride the horse. >> But I feel like it's a joke that everyone's in on together. >> Really? >> It's a physical activity, though. >> They know they're not riding a ████ horse, but they're trying to like >> Oh, you think it's a joke? >> I think I think they're serious. >> Dude, look at all that setup, though. >> There's a whole ass industry for this ████ >> You're looking at the 2023 championship. >> ████ Oh my god. >> Bonos, do you like this? >> Wow, that industry is crazy.
