- 0:24what's this about well today we're gonna do something a little special we're gonna do what's
- 0:28It's called Bonus Improv.
- 0:31The only thing that we need to get this started is a suggestion from Joe.
- 0:34I got one.
- 0:36While he's yawning.
- 0:37I got one.
- 0:38Okay.
- 0:40Suggestion is landslide.
- 0:43Landslide.
- 0:44Landslide will break down.
- 0:46That was really good.
- 0:47That's great.
- 0:48Took my love and I took it down.
- 0:52Stephen Nix, is that you?
- 0:57Stefan Met.
- 0:58uh,
- 1:04I,
- 1:04you know,
- 1:06those areas like when you're driving along,
- 1:08like in the mountains or whatever,
- 1:09and it's like,
- 1:09like it's a falling rock zone.
- 1:13Yeah.
- 1:14How are they zones of that?
- 1:17And not like,
- 1:18and then if you know that this is a zone,
- 1:19like why not reinforce the zone?
- 1:22And like,
- 1:23sometimes they do like,
- 1:23I'll see like big nets draped all over the side of a mountain.
- 1:27So it's like,
- 1:27Clearly you have netting capability.
- 1:29Yeah.
- 1:30Why are you,
- 1:31are these rocks naked?
- 1:34Yeah.
- 1:37These are valid points.
- 1:40You imagine if you're driving and a rock just hit your car.
- 1:42So scary.
- 1:43Yeah.
- 1:44A boulder like rolled down the hill that would crush.
- 1:48Yeah.
- 1:48Knock you off the cliff.
- 1:50Yeah.
- 1:51That would be two scary things.
- 1:53Yeah.
- 1:53The initial impact of like,
- 1:54Oh my God.
- 1:55It would be a landslide of scary things.
- 1:58Oh, you.
- 2:00Oh, man.
- 2:02Doesn't it seem like, I know it's like deadly and horrible,
- 2:05but it seems like, oh, I want to ride one.
- 2:08A landslide or a rock?
- 2:10I was thinking like a snow, like an avalanche, you know?
- 2:13But those are like, you die.
- 2:16Can't ride those.
- 2:17Are you sure?
- 2:19Yeah.
- 2:20You could, maybe.
- 2:21You could ski in front of it and hope that you make it out
- 2:23before the avalanche.
- 2:25but you can't ski in it.
- 2:27Like avalanche takes down trees on the way down.
- 2:30But if you're going with it,
- 2:32you're going with the flow,
- 2:33but I think it clobbers you.
- 2:34It doesn't like,
- 2:35it doesn't like,
- 2:36it's not like pushing you.
- 2:37No,
- 2:37no.
- 2:37Yeah.
- 2:38It's like,
- 2:38yeah,
- 2:38man down.
- 2:39Ah,
- 2:40it's too fast.
- 2:41It's faster than you.
- 2:42That's the official sound of the avalanche by the way.
- 2:44Yeah.
- 2:45Yeah.
- 2:47Man down.
- 2:49It says that as it goes down.
- 2:50Yeah.
- 2:51Yeah.
- 2:53Yeah.
- 2:54is there a natural disaster that you think is let's say more fun here's here's why i'm asking
- 3:01you ever see that movie forces of nature with sandra bullock and i think it was ben affleck
- 3:06yeah i might have seen it when it first came out but i don remember anything well basically like he trying to get back to his fiance because they supposed to get married but a bunch of stuff happens that prevents him from getting there
- 3:17So he, like, is traveling with Sandra Bullock,
- 3:20who he met en route.
- 3:22And she's a bit of a wild thing.
- 3:25Exactly, yeah.
- 3:26You know.
- 3:28And at the end, you think he's going to end up with Sandra Bullock,
- 3:31but then he sees his fiance again,
- 3:32and he realizes, like, he wants to be with her.
- 3:34and so he like ends up marrying her
- 3:37but like it's in the middle of a
- 3:39like a
- 3:40I'm gonna say it's like a hurricane but it's not really a hurricane
- 3:43I don't even know but like it's like really bad weather
- 3:45no it's closer to a hurricane
- 3:47cyclone maybe or like tropical storm I don't know
- 3:49so it's like really rainy and windy and like
- 3:51things are flying around and like he's like standing there in the yard
- 3:53with her and like
- 3:54I don't know kind of romantic
- 3:57is there a natural
- 3:59disaster you'd want to get married in
- 4:00um
- 4:04no
- 4:07not even if it was cinematic
- 4:11uh
- 4:13I thought it would be I always thought it would be cool
- 4:17like you know the end of twister when they like
- 4:19tie themselves to the pipes and then
- 4:21they get to like see inside the twister
- 4:22I know that's completely
- 4:24impossible like first of all the visibility
- 4:26would be like zero you wouldn't be able to like
- 4:28yeah plus if stuff was flying around
- 4:30You would fly into your eyes and like it would just be terrible.
- 4:34Yeah, you.
- 4:35But I always thought that if that was real, that'd be cool because.
- 4:39But also that like leather strap in those pipes, none of that would have held.
- 4:43But whatever.
- 4:44Yeah.
- 4:44Do you think the cows would have gone around like that?
- 4:47I hope so.
- 4:48That's like the one fun thing a cow could ever do.
- 4:51Call that a milkshake.
- 4:55Did you just come up with this?
- 4:57Yeah.
- 4:58That's so funny.
- 4:59I love that.
- 5:01That's so funny.
- 5:03Joe, aren't you laughing?
- 5:04That was good.
- 5:05I actually thought that was a really cheesy joke.
- 5:08It was good.
- 5:09Thanks.
- 5:10I love it.
- 5:12Oh my God.
- 5:17And now, improv.
- 5:25Honey.
- 5:26Yeah.
- 5:27I hope you're not upset, but there was a limited time group on and I had to jump on it.
- 5:34Oh, no, you know, I love deals.
- 5:35It's a group activity for you and me.
- 5:38Oh, great.
- 5:39We are going to bungee jump into a volcano.
- 5:45Oh, um, but like a dormant volcano.
- 5:51No, no, it's active volcano.
- 5:54Yeah.
- 5:54It's mid spew.
- 5:55Wait, honey, no, that won't, that will kill us.
- 5:59No, they know what they're doing.
- 6:00They're licensed and bonded.
- 6:03Honey, I think I like the idea of doing something fun that makes us a little scared and is,
- 6:08you know, get our heart rate up and challenge us.
- 6:15But can't we just go regular bouchy jumping?
- 6:18Why do we need to add the volcano the active volcano That will kill us Are you worried about the heat because there an ice suit that we wear when they dangle us over it And we gone before it melts So way to God hand to God
- 6:30But what about the lava that's going all around us?
- 6:34Well, sure, we have to sign a waiver.
- 6:37Anything can happen, but it probably won't.
- 6:39I thought you wanted to be a daredevil.
- 6:42You said that in your vows.
- 6:43Well, yeah, I mean, I do-ish.
- 6:46Not like I don't want to die.
- 6:50We probably won't die.
- 6:53I could see if I can get my money back, but.
- 6:57I just.
- 6:59Let's just.
- 7:01Think.
- 7:03Less.
- 7:05Pat on a hat with our risky things.
- 7:08Okay.
- 7:09Hold on.
- 7:10Okay.
- 7:10I just called them.
- 7:11Okay.
- 7:11They said that we didn't have to do the volcano bungee.
- 7:15Oh, great.
- 7:15Just regular bungee?
- 7:17No, no.
- 7:17It's a totally different activity.
- 7:19Oh, okay.
- 7:19Yeah. No, there's an area that's apparently seismically very active.
- 7:25And there's a house that is on the fault line, and we're going to stay in the house.
- 7:35Oh.
- 7:36It's like a getaway, a couple's getaway.
- 7:38So it's like a hotel room, but we're on a seismic fault?
- 7:46Yeah, he said there's earthquakes every night.
- 7:47Sometimes two, three a night, he said.
- 7:49I wrote it down.
- 7:51What does it do to the house?
- 7:53I mean, aren't those like really dangerous?
- 7:56Yeah, it's an old house.
- 7:57It's an old house.
- 7:58And he said one of these days it will come completely down.
- 8:01And we're staying in the basement because that's the Daredevil suite.
- 8:08You don't seem excited.
- 8:10You seem to keep setting us up with things that might kill us.
- 8:16Anything could kill us.
- 8:17You know, we could have carbon monoxide poisoning in our own home.
- 8:21Wait.
- 8:23So, wait, you recently removed the carbon monoxide detectors from our house.
- 8:28You said you were going to replace them,
- 8:31except for you did the quote thing when you said replace.
- 8:36You caught me.
- 8:37Are you trying to get us killed in some fantastical way?
- 8:43No, it's just everyone knows that you feel the most alive.
- 8:47when you're the closest to death.
- 8:49That is just fact.
- 8:51Yeah, that's, I mean, that is true.
- 8:53That's why I wanted to bungee jump in the first place.
- 8:56Yeah, but now you, how could you know,
- 8:58how could you bungee jump now
- 9:00knowing that you could also bungee jump over a volcano?
- 9:03How would you stay at a hotel
- 9:04knowing you could stay at a hotel on top of an earthquake?
- 9:09You know, in a weird way, you're making a lot of sense.
- 9:12That's right, Janet.
- 9:15All right.
- 9:15I'll let you choose.
- 9:17Okay.
- 9:17You could pick any activity.
