00:00Alright guys, so we told you we'd be live around 2, so it's 2.05 right now, and we're
00:05live at the moment, and that's somebody that they call the Jet Surfer, so you're gonna
00:09see him right now, he's a total pro, I'm not really sure if I'm gonna try it after, maybe
00:13if I get the cuts, I'm not really sure, but he does it better than anybody, so go ahead
00:16and check it out.
00:17Bueno, que disfruten, estamos en vivo en el momento, y para que vean justamente lo que
00:20están haciendo es algo como lo que hicimos la otra vez, que era, digamos, para volar
00:26por arriba del agua, solo que esto en vez de llevar una mochila lleva una patineta
00:28de abajo, entonces el agua propela desde abajo, no desde atrás de los tubos.
00:34Así que bueno, estamos en directo en las 2.05, y este es el profesional, le llaman
00:39el Jet Surfer, so disfruten.
00:58Bueno, vamos a ver, vamos a ver, vamos a ver, vamos a ver, vamos a ver, vamos a ver, vamos
01:25a ver.
01:43So we're moving this way, because apparently he does this every day, so every day there's
01:47new tourists and everything, so I don't really know where he's going, but he's guiding us,
01:50so apparently he's going this way now, check it out.
02:21I think so, but not like that, no way.
02:40I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
03:08So I think it looks, I mean it looks a little bit easier than the jet pack, if you guys
03:22remember that, because at least, I mean he's using his hands and everything, on the jet
03:26pack if you guys remember, oh we all got wet, on the jet pack if you guys remember, you
03:31had to maintain a lot of, you know, I mean this is balance too, but you had to, depending
03:36on how you move, this is how the jet pack moves, this one's a little bit different,
03:39you can actually move your arms, and with your arms and your legs apparently is how
03:43you manage it I guess.
03:46Anyway, so his name's Kevin, and he's here every day, so if you guys visit, that's what
03:53you get to do.
03:54And it's only 75 bucks, so not that expensive, the other one's I think more expensive.
03:59So his name's Kevin, and he's here every day, so if you guys visit, that's what you get
04:03to do.
04:04And it's only 75 bucks, so not that expensive, the other one's I think more expensive, the
04:08other one's I think more expensive, I think it's even cheaper than the jet pack we got
04:11once.
04:12But at least with this, apparently, you can move your arms and everything, the other one
04:16was a little bit more uncomfortable because you had the jet pack on your back.
05:16All right, so I don't know if he's done or not, I guess we're going to find out in a
05:27second.
05:29I don't know if he's done or not, I guess we're going to find out in a second.
05:33I'm trying to get the live signal so you can see it, but let's go back to the app.
05:44Give me a second.
05:45So he works here, so he's guiding us to see where Kevin is going.
05:51And look, it looks like he's walking in the water.
05:53Now he's walking in the water, yeah, that looks good.
05:55So we're going to catch him here at the edge.
05:59Let's see.
06:02Yes, let's see.
06:03Let's see.
06:04Let's change positions here.
06:08So he actually tried it.
06:10How was it?
06:11It was really good.
06:12It was easy?
06:13It was easy.
06:14It's just all balance on your ankles.
06:15On your ankles?
06:16Yes.
06:17That's what that's, yes.
06:18That you're surfing?
06:19Actually, you can try it on there, right there, we can try it there on the floor.
06:22Is that what he makes you test it on?
06:24You try it on that, if you can balance on that, you can balance on that.
06:26I think I have good balance, still.
06:28But I guess we're going to find out in a little bit.
06:32There we are.
06:37Let's see if you're alive now.
06:43Is this an iPhone or an Android?
06:46See?
06:47No, I can't see.
06:49No, no, where is it?
06:53That.
06:55No, do it again.
06:58Oh, that is cool, I like that.
07:00It's weird.
07:04See mom, look.
07:05I'll let you know that we're live.
07:06So, everything you're seeing right now, we're live.
07:08It's 2.15.
07:10And I'm trying here to deal with an iPhone, with an Android.
07:14Which apparently lacks a plug-in.
07:18So.
07:19Well, but it's good, it's good proof.
07:21So I'll let you know.
07:22If you have the phones, to watch it live, they have to be on the website.
07:25But make sure you have the flash installed.
07:28I'll install it in a second.
07:44He's laughing at me.
07:52He's already wrapped up and everything.
07:55Are you doing it?
07:56No?
08:00Oh, you're going to eat first?
08:01That's not a good idea, you know that, right?
08:03He's like, I'm going to eat first and then I'll do it.
08:05Or maybe you need to get some strength.
08:06Oh, there she is.
08:07How are you?
08:08I'm not, I don't know if I should do it.
08:09I'm actually kind of freaking out.
08:10What's your name?
08:11Mandy.
08:12Mandy, and you've done it.
08:13So you said it's not that big of a deal?
08:14No, it's very easy if you have any sort of balance.
08:17So, is that how you test people to see if they have balance?
08:19Yes.
08:20Let's just start from there.
08:21But I want to get Kevin first.
08:22So, should we start?
08:23Whenever he comes up, we'll interview him too.
08:25So maybe we should start with balance.
08:26Yeah?
08:27I guess we're starting with that.
08:28Oh my God, everybody's going to laugh at me so bad.
08:30This is not...
08:31It's not hard.
08:32No, but I didn't do that good in the last one.
08:35So, there, you're going to hold my phone.
08:37Don't run away with it.
08:38And then you're going to check it right there.
08:39It's happened before.
08:40I gave my phone to somebody and they ran away with it.
08:42I'm like, that's not nice.
08:44Bueno.
08:45So why are you all suited up?
08:48It's cold.
08:49You don't have one?
08:50No, I don't.
08:51Do you want one?
08:52Okay.
08:53Do you want to buy one?
08:54He says the water is too cold.
08:55So, I should put on a bodysuit.
08:56Let me see.
08:58Ah, okay.
08:59I was going to go out with a thong, but it looks like I can't.
09:05I'm like, I was going to go out in my bodysuit.
09:06I'm like, I guess the water is too cold.
09:08All right.
09:09Go ahead.
09:10Wait, I have to leave the mic.
09:12Do you want to hold the mic?
09:13No, mic it off, baby.
09:14Go up with the mic.
09:15Be careful.
09:16That's your balancing act.
09:20I don't know if you get it.
09:21You take it off so easy.
09:22Keep your balance.
09:23If you want to go...
09:24Really?
09:25Yes.
09:26Keep your balance.
09:27Oh, my God.
09:28Don't tell me you can't keep your balance.
09:30I can, but it's never going to be steady.
09:31Okay.
09:32If you want to go to your right, you've got to bend your left knee.
09:35If you want to go to your left, you've got to bend your right knee.
09:38That makes sense.
09:39So, it's opposite.
09:40Yes.
09:43I mean, I usually have good balance, but this sucks, dude.
09:46I'm really...
09:48Hold on.
09:49All right, hand.
09:50Is this going to take my balance away?
09:52The microphone?
09:53No.
09:54Because, actually, when you're riding that, you've got to keep your hands to your side.
09:56Okay.
09:57Actually, the microphone is helping me to keep my balance.
09:59That's cheating, right?
10:01I'm like...
10:03But if I put it on this side, then I'll probably go this way.
10:05So, what is it?
10:06Come here.
10:09What is it?
10:10If you want to go left, you go right?
10:11If you go...
10:12Not forward.
10:13Whatever way you want to go.
10:15Just try to keep straight.
10:16That's the most important part, which I couldn't do on the jetpack.
10:19But, apparently, this is easier.
10:21The jetpack was like...
10:22You couldn't move at all.
10:23I've never done that.
10:24The more you lean towards one way, that's how you went.
10:26But you couldn't use your hands.
10:27Unless you're a pro, and you go like that.
10:29Which, yeah, we didn't do that.
10:31So, if somebody doesn't pass this test, they can't go on, right?
10:34I think you'll be able to do it, so...
10:37And you already passed.
10:38And then I died.
10:39And there's sharks, by the way, which makes everything more exciting.
10:42Yes!
10:43Yes, there is.
10:44Yes, there is.
10:46Robert told me there were sharks.
10:47Is there sharks?
10:48I have no idea.
10:49But then it's like two experiences in one.
10:51You get to swim with the sharks and flyboard.
10:53How exciting!
10:54Yeah, so I'm the guinea pig, huh?
10:58Alright, so...
10:59Is the water really cold?
11:00They just told me the water's really cold.
11:01Yeah, it's pretty cold.
11:04Do I get to wear a bodysuit?
11:06Or...
11:07I don't have any problem going in my bathing suit.
11:12You do?
11:13In yours, I mean...
11:14I got a small one.
11:16I'm going over here.
11:17I don't have my heels on, so I'm a little short now.
11:19Oh, wait, turn this way.
11:20Because of the light, because of the light.
11:21Yeah.
11:22Now we can't see their faces.
11:23Your name?
11:24Kevin, right?
11:25Chris.
11:26Who's Kevin, then?
11:27I don't know.
11:28Somebody was calling you Kevin.
11:29They're like, Kevin's waiting for you.
11:30I'm like, Kevin's not around.
11:32Alright, so...
11:332.15, 2.20.
11:35You're a pro.
11:36How long have you been doing this for?
11:37I've only been doing it for, like, maybe two months,
11:38because I live in Chicago and our season's short
11:40and can't be doing it every day with other jobs and stuff like that, so...
11:42So, are you on vacation, or this is your actual job now here?
11:44Actual job.
11:45We're running our business out of Gilbert's for three months,
11:47and see how that goes.
11:48Now, you go...
11:50I mean, the way that I think this works, right,
11:52if it's the same as the jet pack, is that you get your license, right?
11:55You go, you test out, you do all the crazy stunts,
11:57and then you can actually run your own business, right?
11:59Yeah, there's a lot more that goes into it with insurance and all that stuff.
12:01That's all the boring stuff that we don't want to hear about,
12:03but you need it.
12:04Yeah.
12:05So, have you ever had any trouble?
12:06I mean, anybody doing accidents or anything?
12:08No.
12:09We're super safe about it.
12:10We make sure we got, like, U.S. Coast Guard's captain's license and all that stuff,
12:13and we do safety first.
12:14What about sharks? Can you beat them, too?
12:15Do you have a license for that?
12:16Trying to catch one on my leg and see if I can bring it up.
12:18That would be exciting, actually.
12:20And, well, I heard that there's dolphins somewhere around here also at some time.
12:24Dolphins, they come out,
12:25and especially when you stir up the water with flying around.
12:27That would be super sweet.
12:29Can you imagine if we get dolphins live on air right now?
12:32So, I don't know.
12:33I mean, did you see me do the balance?
12:34Is it okay? I don't know.
12:35Yeah, if you can do that, that's easier than actually doing this, so...
12:38Okay.
12:39So, I don't know.
12:41I don't know if I can do it.
12:42Do you think I'll be okay?
12:44Yeah, you'll be fine.
12:45Okay.
12:46So, what do we do next, then?
12:47Five seconds to a minute.
12:48Let's see how fast we can get you flying.
12:50Not too high up.
12:51Okay.
12:52Maybe 15 feet, if you want.
12:53He's going to have fun with me.
12:55Well, you don't have a remote control, right, to...
12:57No.
12:58Okay.
12:59Your toes and your heels, everything's directional off of you, so...
13:02So, it is a little easier.
13:03I know, you better be good or you're dead meat, right?
13:05In the jet pack, they remote control you.
13:08Yeah.
13:09So, if something went wrong, you know, they...
13:10But I guess this isn't that much...
13:12It's a lot safer.
13:13And the remote control, you have a frequency, so you can interrupt that.
13:16So, if someone drives by with a frequency, drop another person.
13:19Just to have fun, right?
13:21All right.
13:22So, what do we do next?
13:23Should I wait for the bodysuit?
13:24What are we doing?
13:25I don't know.
13:26We'll jump you in the wetsuit, we'll get you a life vest and a helmet,
13:27and we'll put you in the boots and fly you.
13:28All right.
13:29So, we'll do a shortcut, and then we'll come back to you guys while all that goes.
13:32Or do you want to stay?
13:33I don't know if you want to stay, but they're going to put me first.
13:34They have to go get the suit and everything, because otherwise I'm going to die of cold.
13:37And then we're going to try it.
13:38If I die, I'll let them know that there are sharks.
13:40So, the insurance...
13:41We're going to make a small cut and we'll be back.
13:42So, we're going to do a shortcut and we'll be back in, I don't know, say 15 minutes?
13:45Say 15 minutes.
13:4615 minutes, see you.
13:47I guess.
14:04All right.
14:05All right.
14:06All right.
14:07All right.
14:08All right.
14:09All right.

14:32All right.
14:33All right.
14:34All right.
14:35All right.
14:36All right guys.
14:37So, we actually decided to stop and not do it today.
14:43So, we're going to do it maybe on Sunday because if I do it now, the water is really cold and
14:48my voice is probably going to be gone.
14:49So, I know you were all excited to see me in fall and everything and all.
14:54But I think my health first.
14:56So, we have a couple shows still going on and it's pretty windy by the way.
15:00so we're gonna do the sunset then if we catch some dolphins then at night we're
15:03gonna do the band and some magician so I need to take care of my voice and then
15:06tomorrow on Sunday before we leave last minute I'll go ahead and jump in the
15:10water and whatever happens happens if I die the show's over with so we're all
15:13good alright
15:30if I die the show's over with so we're all good
16:00okay so we'll see you guys around 5 45 6 p.m. live again
