0:00 dude to think that that's a way to cool off for Marines no like in the put a cold bottle in your ass start shoving ice cubes up [Music] your okay JK mystery team we're going to guess what the hell happened here um it's a Colorado lake party there's uh some guys hanging out uh this 18-year-old dude he decides to jump in the lake this is an athletic healthy 18-year-old guy's nothing wrong with him how do you know he athletic he do the splits it's pretty athletic I'm just judging on his photo okay he um he looks like uh he's having trouble in the water for some reason and so two friends dive in to save him and then even they feel like they're having trouble too oh

0:51 swimming you're getting pull down so then they end up pulling him out of the lake and they tried to give him CPR and they couldn't save him and he passed the away no way all three of them no just the guy that they tried to save but then the other two had trouble too yeah they noticed something was weird so when they got in yeah a mermaid came up and started sucking while they were trying to swim and they're like oh I don't know why that's kind of tight a freshwater mermaid merma the L and then when they and then when they finally pulled him out he he came that's why he was like too tired probably went to Coma or something yeah they should have waited 15 minutes he would have came back to life but take his pulse after he came it's dead of course they declared it too soon yo what a mermaid in a lake though I thought that was the ocean yeah I know what happened oh damn no one told me it

1:42 was a lake I think Lake no I think there Lake mermaids are just not that hot yeah they're just more aggressive more busted they're just Hillbillies they're more Bayou like Bou ladies B they're just swamp boys they kind of have like a little pot belly yeah Nick mermaids look like Walmart greeters yeah they got a ████ step Lake mermaids are like like Miami level hot what do you think happen Colombian dude that's really I was I had a bunch of guesses in my head and I'm actually stumped I have no idea why I was going to say current I was like oh they the Tide is probably pulling them away that's why they maybe the water's too cold maybe the water was too cold so you don't see the mermaid thing you just the water was nor the water was normal temperature it wasn't there was nothing temper I'm going to go against the room I'm going to go against the room and say it wasn't I'm going to say eoli be that guy I

2:32 don't want to be that guy eoli how does eoli work again but so they immediately started feeling weird when they were swimming it was something yeah something was was a parasite something was affecting them too was it muddy water it wasn't muddy water you know when you jump in the water feet first your ass gets shot with water so I think eoli went up this ass oh yeah instant effect you know how when they say like to get stuff cracking right away you puncture through your butthole like if you're Al they shove a cold bottle or something up your ass and you're cools you down wait a cold bottle it cools you down a frozen one like a Otter Pop hey take this Otter Pop don't cool you down oh man I feel so much better yeah I guess no don't they teach you that in the Marines or if you're if it's too hot they ████ they do that in Navy Seals I think they teach you that I don't think I got to that level they do that home

3:24 survivor he's like you didn't get to that part in the Marines when you like pretend that you're drowning and then your other partner has to like make out with you so you could breathe dude to think that that's a way to cool off for Marines no like in the put a cold bottle in your ass start shoving ice cubes up your ass where do you get the cold bottle anyway if it's so hot out there you got keep it in your M I don't know man every m is refrigerator you got it's like the scuba tank so you say mermaid you say eoli it's a SCUBA tank I think it's a parasite or something you say parasite B but immediately though immediately felt like something was I was going to say a snake bite but you said all three of them they all knew something like something was affecting their body ████ electric eels dude oh that's way better than mermaids in the lake in the lake dude hey there's

4:14 freshwater eels interesting yeah dude I saw a ████ video they were in the river it looked like Brazil brail and this guy was holding like a electric eel in a net like this and I don't know why this other guy just ran over and grabbed it like with his hands and he went like this and he fell ████ oh I seen that video and I was like why did he do that like the guy was holding it up in the net you think they're trying to get high maybe Brazilian guys trying to come dude very Macho dude they are very tough guys very tough guys but he he ran up to grab it like this while the guy was just holding it on the net what's tougher than that though that's really tough thank you that's tough ████ and then that F just looked tazed he went yeah he like stiffened up yeah and then he fell in the water that's for big boys only wait so what was it that's closer oh that's closer oh

5:07 it's closer closer it's really really close so it's some kind of electric electric is it like a loose wire I know what it was a loose electrical wire the dock there's like electrics yeah yeah yeah yep sockets yeah exactly so this this uh particular Lake there's a private dock in that area and uh and this is a thing that happens a lot I guess they said that there was like exposed wiring from something that was actually touching the water and it was electrifying the lake oh man oh my God so when this kid jumped in he immediately got shocked and his friends came to help him they got shocked too and they could have moveed they were like yeah and they were barely able to get him out and but then it was too late he already like drowned from he died that's ████ crazy yo wait wait wait a minute wait a minute the lake is massive right so how far can electricity even

5:58 travel unless they're right are they right next to yeah they were closer to it so like let's say that like the wire's over there and I jumped over here like it was kind of like that cuz they probably jumped off a dock or something where the boats are already are at yeah nobody go checks their feet nobody checks the water with the feet checks like that I check the water I'm sometime I do too I check the water I do too you don't just you don't just run and jump in unless it's Hawaii but anywhere else I just I think that's the thing it's like what if it's a lake that you're used to you know everyone I know just jumps in water yeah jump in that's a stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to maybe I'm a ████ I don't know the crazy thing is they said that um in the article it was talking about that there's a lot of the time this happens with boats too where like a boat will have wiring that's like exposed and it's shocking the water around I wonder what the perimeter is of ████ how

6:49 much electricity can go dude you read my mind brother get out of my head I'm saying we're not that deep but we have good ideas yeah that it works in tuna fishing cuz I think it's like it doesn't say the details on exactly at least in the way I'm imagining it is that he it didn't shock him enough to kill him but it shocked him enough to where he couldn't swim corly and he drowned and then he drowned I think that's what happened you're probably getting mildly tased where you're like you're like being tasted it's probably pretty strong too I I got hit by a goat fence one time that ████ was crazy hit by a goat fence yeah I got hit by I was reaching over cuz my uncle had goats I reached over the fence and I just watched my hand fly back behind my back yeah and then you I just started um I I dropped to the to like on my ass stood back up dropped on my ass stood back up dropped my ass stood back up cuz

7:40 you just your body's just doing whatever they yeah it just shut you down you had like rag doll physics 100% and dancing Mach my family's watching this ████ from like they're watching from the farm or whatever like the they're watching the whole thing yeah yeah well they're all just having beers and ████ up there and then they see me going down to the goat fence and just see me being unusual and nobody knew that I had just got like Ste usually get down like that I don't hear no music and i d i was you just don't you have no control over your body you're just doing whatever the electricity wants so I would imagine it's probably like that your son is over there breaking it down y ever had a metal stick in bu wide open Outlet you what the ████ hey wait wait wait say that again you know when you're young you ever had like uh have a grab like a metal whatever scissor and you just put it in that was my jam that was my jam bro yeah you guys never did that did

8:30 that with the fork you know the light that's some smooth brain ████ I was helping my mom fix something it and I took the light bulb off and I forgot to unplug it and so as soon as I stuck the fork in there like there's a ████ reason why they cover that ████ for kids hey hey you know you know those Chinese ear Diggers the little metal ones brother I used to cuz it was the perfect size stick it in there why cuz I'm what happened to you so I didn't know what did you do the fork too no it was just like a metal stick at my metal Chopstick I shoved it in the plug dude you're right though when you get when it goes through you that's it it's whatever it's whatever is happening happen it just felt like numb numb all the way oh was like Sam come try it out hey you guys got to come try this yeah I didn't know anything else else of it though I was I could I was tingling for the rest of the night oh damn oh

9:21 yeah it was crazy I didn't know that the fences were that how old are you I was like 13 so did you feel like you're like I think I have ████ superpowers now oh I wanted that obviously to it did you try to touch other did you try to do it again I tried to touch my brother immediately he didn't do anything was it too scary to do it again oh ████ yeah it was it was it was like it hurt like it was it's meant to stop a goat right a furry ass goat yeah it was it wasn't something I wanted to do yeah the first time I got shocked I felt it vibrating in my bones and I was like what the ████ was that cuz I didn't even know what it was like it was like some that's what I mean it's like vibrates the rest of the day it's crazy the first the whole day I felt tingling all night yeah the first time I got shocked was at school at San Gabriel because we were doing that that uh pay phone trick oh there's a pay phone trick

10:13 it doesn't work no more but like back in the day you take a paperclip you unfold it to the shape of a phone and then you put one side in the center hole of the speaker and then you put the other side into the rubber part that's around the cord you have to do it in this order hole first for second if you do it in the reverse order you get shocked and then we did it the wrong way and I just felt it go out my pinky like the shock and it felt like my nail like flew off and I was like what was that ████ yeah I didn't know that doing it reverse is immediate it's like when Nick was hosting that one time he's holding us Shing news that ████ sucked bro that thing okay guys I'm going I'm going be real it doesn't actually shock he's just ████ around yeah he's just why are you ████ around like that you made so dude are you ████ seriously doing this to me being dramatic are you are

11:03 you calling me a liar I think that's gaslighting is that gaslighting dramatic dude you imagine we we didn't even put the batteries in that thing the lights weren't on he's just acting how those Square batteries the square batteries you put on your tongue oh yeah yeah yeah we used to I've never done that you used to lick batteries too high I was like do you guys remember there was like um there was like a gag toy that kids had and it was like uh it was like a battery set and then it had like two sides right and then you T touch it and you go like what the ████ and I'm like where did you get that it was always like at a back of a magazine where like they had that classified thing or like a magic shop you get something like that yeah I've been tased you've been actually tased what happened by a police officer or just by a friend remember uh at the lab

11:54 in West Cina Steve had a Taser Taser stick and I got stabbed I got tased did you tell tell him to do it yeah I just told him to do it I just want to feel what it's like did you like it have you ever taken an IQ test no dude you guys you guys used to tase that freaking JK party JK party is not fun it's not fun you guys used to remember when like dietrix had it he started running around chasing everybody with it and ████ yeah that's not fun I feel like the hand taser though is weaker than the poking one oh the stick what about what about the shooting one the the probably Max they probably don't make it shoot unless it's strong cuz it's one and done right once you shoot it you can't reuse it yeah it's two and done right get two shots I always wondered like how does it stick to the person oh it's a prong it's a it's a it's a like a needle it sticks into you yeah no it's straight

12:45 up I can watch Taser videos all drug must be so strong cuz have you seen the dude that ████ pull it off ████ you stronger for some reason yeah dude that's the best electrified ha
