Is Flex Tape Really As Strong As Those Commercials Claim?

- According to the commercial for Flex Tape, it's so strong it can plug a hole underwater, lift a 45-pound weight and even patch up a boat that has been sawed in half. But is it all just advertising hype? Inside Edition's Chief Investigative Correspondent Lisa Guerrero bought a boat and cut it in half, just like the commercial, to see if Flex Tape could help it work on the water. A team at Lakeview Marina in New Jersey applied the tape after the boat was cut in half. #InsideEdition
Pretty obvious they’re trying reaaaaally hard to come from whatever kind of negative angles they can. The flex tape held up basically exactly as advertised.
They just want to make people click on the video
I mean what the hell u getting mad at it’s tape they tested the limits and just said it’s a bit exaggerated because it won’t hold a boat together that long and it may not hold weight that long but that don’t mean that they say don’t get it I use it for gags for the children in my basement it works great even for the whole family
@@egg69420 Oh good. I was gonna use it for my basement dwellers, but I couldn't find any reviews. How does it work for you?
It was actually really impressive
A lot of it depends on how you apply it. If you leave air bubbles in and dont make sure it's stuck completely against the surface of whatever you're applying it to, it wont work properly
“I SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF”
I felt that.....
Bean titanic
I started busting up when he said that 😂

True🥺

“I think it was overhyped in the commercial”
Literally did everything in the commercial it said it would.
corey hardisty ur absolutely right. I totally agree with u👍👍👍
I agree to
So do I
No it did not. The boat leaked.
@@SunnyWu only a little and look at how the tape was crooking
"its a little misleading"
Nobody said it was gonna hold forever and it literally did the things that happened in the commercial .-.

Commercial
Its As if she wants the tape to wipe her ass and take her kids to soccer practice all at the same time😂
raheem segowski lol true 😂
Well I mean the inside wasn't completely dry when she went out with the boat. It was a bit misleading with what Phil said it could do and how you can basically rape your boat back together and it would be fine forever.
Bruh Lit he didn’t say it would be fine forever
Phill used the boat for atleast five minutes
Lisa went a whole half hour
How’s that for misleading

ThatWasABlessin also notice how much more violently he yanks it up
It shouldn't have snapped
It didn't really snap though, just come off didn't it?
ThatWasABlessin I'm not even sure where in the commercial it ever says it was going to hold forever. It just claimed flex tape was strong, which it obviously is.
They try to tell you that you cant cound on it...
How dare you even consider asking this question
Yes sir jesus
omg
20th like :D
They know not what they do.
Yes
The reason the boat leaked is because the tape was so wrinkled on the commercial they put it on flawlessly
Oh yeah that
Never underestimate the supreme companies sayings
Facts
Definitely an issue of application. The fact that it held up as well as it did here even is pretty impressive still.
You have to roll it with a hand held roller to make it seal properly
"It's a little misleading"
Oh no! I can't hang gym weights on my ceiling!
I laughed waaay to hard at this😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 this was gold
*weight falls on me* OW!
@@DeanRocks-kr7wv NOW THATS A LOT OF DAMAGE
Seriously, DO NOT try- never attempt this! Phil has gone too far! He has sniffed too much Flex Glue, and now all he can see is Martians! Send help!
commercial: 3 reps
them: 12 reps
*"hoWeveR i tHiNK iTs a bIT mIsLEaDIng"*
Exactly
Lul i think the misleading is that man Power,not the flex tape
Lmaooooo
she said it was misleading because the commerical is giving the impression that the tape could hold on for a long time . but as you can see, it doesnt. still a good product tho
I know right those idiots were out to get them
Broken marriage? Flex... tape

It's not overhype you just can't slap It in like Phil does.
Spasm Fox trutv

Spasm Fox 🦊
Spasm Fox: The lady wearing a coat did it wrong. You have to slap it so it could work. So the commercial was not overhyped. Iam only here to see Lisa Guerrero.
Thats the truth
Ad: holds up for 3 rounds
Them: tries 12
Tape: breaks
Also them: yeah its pretty misleading, and they overexadurated it in the commercial.
If you think about it the commercial is a huge success.
The commercial insist that the tape will last forever so it is misleading a little.
@@ROMEO-wg8xn no the commercial didn't say it will last forever have u even seen the commercial? lol

Also it says on the commercials they use multiple layers just defending my man Phil swift
Agreed
Also she didn't even have patience she strait up put it on and off she went didn't even let it take time to stick
Agreed
Not to mention god knows she didn’t clean the surface of the boat before taping it. Probably full of dirt and rocks.
He has a good point
0:58 They laughed before she even told the joke
Totally scripted
Pretty obvious what the joke was gonna be though
Not to be racist or anything, but white people...
@@hyperraidsaerofrights5649 U can’t be racist to white people

The only reason there was a leak was because she didn’t say YEEEEEEEE HAW HAY
You copied this comment, and he didn't say "yeEeE hAw hAyy" clean your ears
If there is a leak in the boat she will be drowning slowly while she ride it
So maybe she just put water in there
You mean yeet

Why the hell would you use a Tape to reattach a boat anyways?
M Anime ikr, they just want to show the tape is strong.
Because flex tape is best tape
They just wanted to flex the tape
Nigga cuz its flextape!!!

The fact it can still sail thru the water despite the leaking is still amazing
Very very much so
Pretty sure tape gonna hold for pretty long time even if it leaks,yeah
And also it would keep boat dry if they applied it better i think

It worked just like the commercial. Your assumptions and poor applying technique look like the only issue. Completely disagree it was overhyped based off the tests you just did.

Also inside edition had a huge old metal boat while the one in the ad looked like a smaller plastic one. You can’t compare them
Chris Bird it didn’t sound like pkastic lmfao

Exactly!
i love how flex seal commented ‘Great video!’ even tho inside edition is completely dissing them!!
The thing is, this is wrong.

You did know that the commercial used many layers of flex tape for the boat.

No you’re thinking of commercial in which they supposedly made the hull of a boat out of screen and covered it in flex seal spray
No it was only 12" wide on both inside and outside of boat, 2 layers

1: The boat you used was a different shape and size than Phil’s. The flex tape crew used multiple layers of tape and took as much time as possible to smooth it out and keep it sealed.
2:We only saw the tape hold up for 3 reps. There’s also the possibility of multiple layers used.
3: This is the only accurate test. Flex tape works as advertised.
THATS A LOTTA DAMAGE
Pretty sure they would've specified in boat scene if multiple layers where used since they did that in Flexseal commercial
On Flextape one it just says that its applied to both inside and outside of boat
