0:00 and he was like talking to me like he was a fan and then he's like yeah um I see you your b-boy and and you know this guy from this city and you know this B boy from that state and I was like yeah like I used to train with that guy and then he he like gets really close to my face and he literally says hey I didn't know facts could break too [Music] welcome back to another great episode of careful boys today we have Bart Nick Anthony Joe myself and Steve boys are back don't even can somewhere he lives here yeah and candy now that we're all together let's do an OTR from the fans this one is from Kaizen he wanted to know what is the weirdest fan interaction you've ever had oh where do I even start dude start you have a bunch

0:52 of them all of mine we kind of forget but we have so many throughout the years dude recent ones maybe we could think of those one of the more recent ones that comes to mind um so I think a lot of fans bless their hearts some they want to like support the stuff that we do like our businesses and stuff one of them he became a member at the at the gym borrower game and then there's just a lot of like weird signs the first one was he uh bought a Year's worth of membership at once is that bad yeah people don't do that they just you just have to use pay monthly and they paid it all in ones and a duffel bag so that was weird and then there it's really weird did he also let you keep the duffel bag because

1:42 that's weirder I don't know I wasn't did I just I just hear the stories and then there's uh one time he brought in a chick to train like kickboxing this guy does not know anything about kickboxing and he just beat the ████ out of her come on she's the one holding pad oh ████ I don't know why yeah she was holding pads for him but he's training her and then okay so the first thing you said huh that's the point against him this is a point for him he's like you gotta show dominance I showed her wait did I say coolest or weird [Laughter] and then uh there's this and then he started to like you know and he's training her and they started to come around uh pretty regularly so like you know like we're a culture-based gym so everyone kind of knows each other yeah just sort of make friends and then he brought in this gun you know you bring a gun into the show people and

2:33 then people what the ████ whatever got here he'd pull the trigger and it was just like a flame ah he thought it was a ████ oh my God he's the Joker yeah so we ended up having to uh revoke his membership yeah but that was pretty smart that was because you giving back the duffel bag and that's the last you saw of him he didn't come back or anything nah oh and then he would uh his mom would drop him off and then he would train for like four hours and his mom's just in the car in the front just the car's running the whole time just waiting with the AC on yeah well there you have it that's the reason why so how did you that's the end of the video thanks I've ever heard about did you know he was a fan did he like say anything yeah he was a big fan I've always wanted to come here and enjoy them that's the sign right there no oh geez oh geez dude I was at a uh uh theme park and just enjoy

3:25 my time and this this fan comes up he goes John what are you doing here and I'm like same thing what everyone else is doing you know like enjoying I thought he wanted a picture no way there's no way that's why you're here a guy like you probably here to film something yeah he was like can I ask you something and I was like thinking oh you probably want a picture right and then we're like in the middle of like a ride like just going back and forth right and then like in the middle of it we're I'm just about to go and he goes can I ask you something I was like oh yeah you probably like quick picture like same routine and I was like sure and he goes yeah so when I first um saw your videos you know it really inspired me and all that and then like he just goes on this ████ novel and then we're almost next in line right and then I'm like yo we're about to like no

4:16 social contacts and in the middle of it he's trying to talk about Jesus to me and then I'm he goes uh and I'm like yeah yeah like I yeah I believe in you know all this stuff whatever whatever you think [Music] that's great I was like that's great you love God like cool I love God we're on the same team okay I love this rock I was like hey good to meet you whatever right yeah finish the ride this guy's still waiting for me at the stairs so we could continue talking about Jesus and he's like can we pray he's witnessing and I'm like hey dude not to be offensive but like we're in like we're in the middle of enjoying this thing and I ain't gonna stand here and talk to you all this time and just ████ have a 30 minute prayer like what are you doing like I just got off the Riddler bro and his eyes his eyes was like dead ████ serious like this nothing behind the

5:07 eyes and I was just trying to tell him like this is the wrong time and place to be ████ evangelizing to me and it's like what are you doing but I was just like at that point I was pissed because I was like what the ████ is wrong with you like you have no social context like what are you ████ ████ did you ask him that I don't know I I always like to believe people mean well and they don't understand how social cues they're not being socially correct yes right yes it's like the the normal transaction with a stranger or someone that you admire or whatever is hey quick words thank you very much all right we're go we got we both got things to do we're in a ████ theme park dude what are you doing

5:58 trying to tell me like you're the first person that ever talked to me about God like the ████ you know like I don't know dude yeah you're right though I would talk about God before maybe going on Tatsu but not after yeah because after top scary you're just we're leaving the house I made it in the tattoo photo that would have been the perfect time bless up yeah because that's scary dude times are scary your feet are dangling dude we should all go to Six Flags people lose their shoes on the ref right baptized by the raft water dude I wouldn't even mind he's done your head real quick hey real quick I'm gonna do a quick little 30 second prayer with you real quick like he if he told me no in the time duration I would have been like I'm out but that's that's how far I'm down to go I was like yo you're a writer yeah his he

6:48 AP his welcome is what I felt like it's like dude this is this is too long I got Life to Live and you're out here like having a deep trying to have a deep ass conversation trying to get to X2 right now really that's the problem with evangelism is that like witnessing for the Lord's probably one of the toughest ████ sales jobs you could possibly take yeah and they're throwing amateurs the ████ uh Reigns yeah and they're just like go for it yeah we should go do it at Six Flags too dude that's honestly that's the highest difficulty he's trying to get he's trying to make head faster dude he's at the water park he's ████ in the wave pool and he's ████ excuse me about Jesus not easy we could turn this into wine and then and then and you know all these stories right where like people turn around and then they go man he was such a dick yeah and I'm like I'm trying to that's true yeah but there's a point where you gotta go happen hey you're

7:39 being rude like what are you doing I remember there was this one time we were all we were we we were waiting forever to ████ eat at this restaurant we finally got sat down the food comes we're just ████ chowing right and this ████ mom comes up and then she goes can my can my kids take pictures with you guys they're big fans and then we're like lady like we're eating you should be the person that ████ sets a good example for your kids like and the way she came up was like my kids are big fans you guys take a picture right now call them yeah and I was like yo we're thankful but we need um but but can you let us finish it's just normal even interaction yeah I was like it worked she had that like authoritative mom Vibe so she was kind of mad coming in like she's like I don't

8:30 know who you guys are but my kids love you guys you need to take pictures with them that's like demeaning at the same time so I felt like oh I gotta teach teach her a lesson and I'd be like we'll do it after this meal and she goes real quick and I'm like nah we'll do it after this meal and then she looked at me with with like like that and walked away oh yeah I know man and then they weren't around they didn't wait around but that's four subscribers dude and that's how it started it down I could see it in the chart couldn't even hit two actually would have done it like we do it all the time we stop in the middle of the meal to ████ take pictures all the fun all the time all the time just how she asked yeah this is to me yeah dude it was like Brazil because we were what in our 20s at the time too so I think she felt like yes your kids need to ████ do what I say and I was just like which is a weird way to enter

9:21 anything yeah so much about it it's the foreplay you know what I mean how you butter somebody up and make them feel good about the fans if they were nice and they were just open like hey big fans and they this is the tone change I'm sure it wouldn't have been a problem yeah and the follow-up was like yeah we'll do it like you know just let us finish our meal real quick yeah it's nice still polite but the after response of like oh yeah like you guys think you're so ████ dude yeah and I was like you know what the weird fan interactions I feel like it's the it's the it's their approach and how they talk to you yeah it's never like gonna be talking like that from anybody I've been interrupted in my meal multiple times and I ████ love it sometimes because they're cool because they walk up and you're just like oh this guy's ████ cool and then they might even sit down while I'm just like eating my meal and I'm finishing it while I'm having a full-on conversation with them because I enjoy their company

10:12 because they're nice yeah yeah it's cool or they're hot and you ████ yes guys and girls let's go there was um two hands during the time this is 2005 and um I was on sale you think you could dance and then this was like mid as the show was like broadcasting so we were still on like the I think the top 32 and that night we were staying at the Universal Hilton or whatever right by the Universal Studios so we decided to go to Saddle Ranch at CityWalk where it used to be um we all went out there and tons of people recognizing us because because it was like the whole cast is out so if you knew one person you knew it was the whole show all these people were talking to us this dude comes up to me and I I think he's a fan because he's like yo what's up you're Ryan what's up man and he was like talking to me like he was a fan and then he's like yeah um I see you

11:03 your B boy and and you know this guy from this city and you know this b-boy from that state I was like yeah like I used to train with that guy and then he ████ he like gets really close to my face and he literally says hey I didn't know facts could break too oh that's and then at that point Steve Green Line he was about to Sock me right there but the guard saw the way he was talking to me the whole time and he was coming up and he grabbed the guy right before I got sucked wow and they kicked him out and then everybody was like what was that and I was just like shook so he was a hater that just came and he wanted to ████ you up he thought it was great he thought it was and then you looked at him he's like weak so he was a gay hater but he was I guess he was also a b-boy back in the days but he thought I was he actually he was

11:54 in love with you and he's like if I can't have him nobody can he's like the dad from American Beauty yeah he thought it was actually gay and was like pissed that I was a b-boy on the show because I was gay and he turned out to be so as a straight man you got gay bash I honestly was shook because I felt what that might be like and I was like holy ████ I was nice to this guy everything was cool he was about to get back and then he like it was so creepy because in this crowded ass it's all loud everyone's talking and he ████ I thought it changed like that a Cool Secret and he's just like gives it so he was being aggressive but you're so positive yeah that you're just not even taking it that way because I was so used because he was aggressive enough to where the security guard was like oh ████ you know how good security knows when that's about to happen yeah and then he was like he just got real close and then as soon as that ████ happened I just saw arms come around him and they just tossed him out watching

12:45 videos of you though I will say that I'm like oh Ryan was gay he's straight now no he's not yeah yeah I mean his hair was he converted it works yeah it's successful yeah it was successful at him he's a little catatonic but it's okay because when when Ryan had um a Karen haircut my gayness you did oh yeah well I did yeah I did but yeah that was you're not like grinding I think I still look at that as the weirdest interaction because it was like you think it's a fan that's weird and then he wants to kick your ass that's wild dude he's like but the fact that he like did his research is crazy that's why I think he was gay and like repressed oh yeah cause that's a lot of reasons because he was obsessing he knows your name and all this stuff yeah because I think he had like hated me

13:35 throughout the whole like watching it and go oh this ████ gay guy better not make it he's like I'm gonna get this gay guy at Saddle Ranch I'm gonna show him what's really good right when he's on the bull ride most most haters are dedicated fans they're obsessed yeah it's true yeah they care and they follow you for years and if if they really didn't give a ████ about you pay so much attention yeah they take a hell of real estate yeah yeah yeah hi JK Reddit [Laughter] I mean because well they were they used to be hilarious I will yeah but they're big fans that's why they stay around so long they love us and they know details that everything yeah everything I'm like because like no one follows every single one of our stuff like even our Die Hard

14:25 fans don't even watch every single thing that we do you guys don't miss a beat and I do like that they stick up for Anthony a lot okay ████ do they yeah they do what do they say no they they really believe that because they believe he's really being bullied I'm just glad that you converted yeah yeah well it's probably because I wish you convert back we do get bullied so they so they feel that obviously yeah well look obviously a lot of them I don't think have friends and that's and that's okay I'm not even make know how friendship Works to interact with each other yeah and yeah dunking on Anthony does not mean that we don't like the guy like we come here we put on our basketball shoes and we ████ dumb and we don't we're doing layup lines dude but with dunks they for us it's exhausting to dunk for 12 hours a ████ day yeah for a three day because it's so successful though that's what I'm saying but we alley-oop each

15:16 other a lot what's your weirdest thing I'm not contributing to this conversation because this is the exact topic where Bart dunked on me the first time oh really nah you have to dude hold on years ago I think that's been when the numbers do number two started starting really I mean if you guys didn't even win those because we were talking about weird fan interactions I don't even remember yeah it's because you know I'm obsessed about it and I remember it's crazy you still remember so this being like noticed is new for you right so like you're kind of experiencing fans for the first time and people recognizing you how does that yeah how does that feel like um I'll say this everyone that's around me when someone comes up to me they always go why are you so weird they say that to me yeah yeah what because I started like I don't like dude it's like

16:07 we don't know how to interact it's weird I don't want to make too much eye contact I try to be as friendly as I can but then sometimes like the first couple times some people came up to me it just caught me off guard so hard like I just didn't know what to say maybe one of these like I was like okay okay I do that no I don't know it's it's everyone's been really nice there hasn't been anyone that's weird there's calling to me and was like a little weird hey this Arrow JK pens is sick though legit yeah it's the best it's the weirdest one when I came up to it that was that was one of the funniest ████ things I've ever seen in my life like I I couldn't believe and then the whole backstory was insane uh but most people have been really nice I remember there was one girl I forgot I forgot her name but we were in a big island she came up to us me and Tiff were just shopping at a ████ gift shop Hawaiian fans are the best too yeah hey Hawaiian

16:57 fans are the ████ bro and this this girl she was like she was like shaking right she was like oh my God like Nick from JK and I was like what the ████ oh this is weird and then tip is like she's like what the ████ is going on this is hella weird you know she was so nice we were talking to her for a little bit she was like oh me and my mom watch JK every day and I was like oh my God people really watch the show it's before like I know people watch the show but it's like it's weird when someone comes up to you first time and then like tells you that and they're complete strangers it's just like it's a you're gonna blend the world exactly like you're like oh ████ this thing that I do every couple weeks is being seen by people in the big eye like it's just weird that's pretty ████ sick man it's like a weird uh um mindset shift I guess but everyone's been really ████ nice I haven't really had anybody I would say like 99.9 of our fans throughout the years have

17:49 been ████ amazing yeah for sure you know what's crazy we were at uh Albertsons and then uh I think a couple came up to us as me Gio and taika and then you could tell that they're being kind of like they're just maybe a little bit like nervous or whatever um but they're fans and um they're kind of stuttering or whatever and taika can feel it so Tiger goes do you wanna and I'm like and then afterwards and then afterwards I was like don't say stuff like that he goes well I'm just gonna ask him if they want a picture I'm like I'm like you don't ask them because why but we're famous oh no no that's not how it works I mean that's not how it goes if they want a picture they'll ask for a picture but then it was just crazy and I'm like damn this but we're famous in this world that's just his world is just different you know and I'm like that's nuts because he's he's been there since

18:40 day one where he's been famous since a baby it's a baby we always get pictures so to him it's just such a normal thing and so if he sees oh dude this is that awkward behavior that they don't know how to express like that so you can snuff it out oh you want a picture yeah yeah you want a picture that's wild he's all trying to be nice to them yeah yeah and he's such a good sport about it you know like it's hard to get kids to take pictures right like even us when we're kids like our dad's about here take a picture and you're like you have so many pictures like tiger could be in the middle of something if someone wants a picture he's like that's so cute yeah he's so good that's cute Hannah said that every single time there's like a circle of giggling Asian Chads she knows that they're gonna ask for pictures

19:31 that's tight giggling Asian chat yeah let's Asian chat what do you mean he's like your fans she's like 90 of them have a look like they're like she's like well also it's being a racist yeah she can't say that first of all they're Asian and they got that little tiniest little eyes I've ever seen she's like they're she's like they're fit well-dressed dudes and that's racist they're wearing kimonos yeah okay she said they're they're fit well-dressed dudes and if they're a giggling Asian Chad then guaranteed they're gonna ask for a picture that's pretty cool she says if she sees a circle of fit well-dressed dudes that are looking at us then she goes yeah those guys are fast but she says that in the UK what she's noticed is our fan base there is different from

20:21 here out there we have a lot of like uh Brown folks like Muslim uh ████ like Pakistani um like that and then like like the Asians out there yeah [Music] foreign
