- 3:10hop in my car we're gonna go drive around and almost hit a bunch of pedestrians
- 3:16uh oh is there more to that nope nope it's just a fun easy way to get people to feel lucky to be
- 3:27alive and uh they don't know that we're doing it on purpose so they think whoa i'm real lucky
- 3:34i i mean that sounds interesting but i'm aren't you ever concerned that you

- 4:16that's where we put we hide little rocks and stuff in the ground near the edge and then we stand near
- 4:27the edge waiting for someone to come by and trip and then we catch him and go whoa and then they
- 4:32feel like oh oh my god i almost just fell off the grand canyon that's horrifying what if they
- 4:36actually fall that's actually never happened thank goodness oh god thank thank goodness not
