Usually we let our videos speak for themselves, but seeing a lot of comments so I want to clear one thing up if you'll spare a moment to read.
Our texting while driving habits were exaggerated for the sake of this video to demonstrate examples of real behaviors out there. I see people texting and driving every. single. day. and we wanted to make a video about the dangers. Using your phone while driving seems to be becoming apart of everyday life, and that is terrifying.
We often lean into elements of our character/personality as a way to represent different types of people. In doing so, we also leaned into the edit to make our real life habits look as dangerous as possible to underscore our message. In hindsight, we now see how poorly we come off, especially me (Zach), and for that we apologize. It's a tricky line to make these videos both fun and serious, and at times we come off as callous and reckless during this one.
My comment about using my phone the next day was not said to be apathetic, but rather to show that cell phone use is an ingrained and habitual behavior for so many people. I got to a red light, took out my phone, and thought "what the hell am I thinking?" I saw in that moment how using my phone isn't even a conscious activity sometimes, and I imagine for many people it's the same. You can know something is bad and still do it, and that scares me the most. It's not just my life on the line out there, and as someone who was in a nearly fatal car accident as a child I know this as well as anyone.
I’ve been guilty of using my phone in my car. I imagine some of you have been too. You tell yourself you can do it safely, but you just can’t. That’s why we made this series - to show people that. I was in charge of this edit and was willing to make myself look bad to prove that point. It seems I should say on the record that the video portrays me as a far more egregious phone user than I really am. I regret how far the video pushes it and am sorry if I disappointed you. I promise our intentions were pure.
So, ultimately I’m glad some of you are mad. I hope what you watched disgusts you and that you and your friends never do it. But for those upset that I haven’t learned my lesson, please know that is not the case.
Thanks for watching this series and apologies for bogging this final episode down with a long-winded message. I hope you can still enjoy and learn from it.
💚 Zach (and the rest of the guys)
👍👍👍
The Try Guys thanks for clearing it up Zach 👍
thanks for the message, zach. i am glad that you took these (some of them really kinda nasty) comments respectfully. its great to know for a fact that you guys not only exaggerated for the video, but are consciously TRYING to make a change. loved the videos, and youve definitely convinced me never to do any of these things.
Appreciate you 💛
The Try Guys its ok, I’m sure few people thought that but thanks for clearing it up

THAT HIT ME
-Ned Flumer 2018
this one hit me
Helena Rosno OMG I SEE YOU EVERYWHERE 😂
“Oh Eugene he’s crazy, he’s had fingers everywhere. YEA I’ve lived life “
PERIODT.
That is what you got out of this video?!? Oy....
I frackin CHOKED on my adult beverage.
I need this on a pillowsham!
@@brillanza1288 you are having home and I hI to daddy lol and I’m so so tired I just uuuuu
@@brillanza1288 you are having home and I hI to daddy lol and I’m so so tired I just uuuuuy
One time I looked over at this lady driving and she was reading a book 😑
oh my god, I saw that once too, like...how??
that's me lol. I would always read a book while walking home from school or a library but I never fell or hit anything or anyone.
but when I was texting... I almost broke my leg & neck.
and imagine while I'm driving.
Sorry I’m so late on this but I was in stop and go traffic at a light and this lady next to me was watching a video on her phone with it over the badge on her steering wheel, with her headphones in. Both of them.
I saw a COP, a fucking COP, playing solitaire on his godamn computer while driving once!!
I saw someone on facetime with kids on the back seat once. It mad me so angry
*gets told He’s gonna be on a TH-cam video*
doctor: it’s time.
*slowly opens desk drawer*
*takes M&M tie out*
i was thinking the same thing
I mean, can you blame him?
I thought is as anyone gonna mention the tie and if I had a tie thats stupid enough for a video I'd wear too
Lol the doctor actually said there distracted because there looking at porn and other stuff 😂😂
This comment made my dad 😂😂😂😂
Keith's "my car" is Ned's "my wife"
Except Ned hasn't shared his wife with the other three.
That we know of.
Elizabeth Ann 😂😂😂
I bet there is a fanfiction for that out there
Yasmin Quasne
Kieth: “It’s my car! It’s the only one I got!”
Ned: “It’s my wife! It’s the only one I got!”
"I'm in love with my car"
So proud of Eugene for not using his phone while driving and still using CD player. love him more in an instant.
Alicia en el Pais de las Maravillas THANK U! Because of those statements everyone is praising him, but it’s sending the wrong message because we can’t praise his obvious reckless drunk driving and sleep driving. They’re all responsible for their mistakes and are mature enough to fix them. Don’t let one off the hook because they don’t do ONE of these things but the rest of the three. Hold. Everyone. Accountable.
@@ostephoo7712 he doesn't drive while high, because he said he doesn't do drugs, but I still agree with you. At least he knows it's bad - acknowledging the problem is the first step towards fixing it.
ghost girl Maybe, but they clearly all know it’s bad if they’re making the video. Unfortunately, this isn’t always enough to make people do something.
@@ostephoo7712 the point was, they all know it's bad, but like other people who do it, they don't realize HOW bad. Everyone that does this .. EVERYONE.. thinks they are a good enough driver that they can risk it even though it's bad. Like it was "just bad for other, less skilled drivers". This series was to point out that every. single. person. who drives impaired in any way is a risk, no matter how amazing you are sober. It's the degree of badness that's being pointed out.
dude i start swerving a little when i try to turn on the defrost there’s no way in HELL im texting and driving lmao
Same here, too uncoordinated. It'll wait, or I'll pull over.
that's me with the radio lol
I just text at red lights! I would never text while driving! 😳
Same. I don't even answer the phone. Whoever it is can wait.
Same. I don’t understand how some people can text and drive with such confidence lol
This series all has one video that is more specific to one of the guys:
Keith-Weed
Zach-Texting
Eugene-Drinking
Ned-Sleep Deprivation
Nope. Eugene doesn’t drink and drive but he does drive sleep deprived ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
Rewatch the series, I think the list needs altering.
Keith- Weed
Zach- Texting
Ned & Eugene- Sleep Deprivation
*College Kids- ALCHOHOL*
*ALCOHOL* ? Idk
Nah Zach has done all of these
@@jeniferlong264 so?
Georgia Hildenbrand yes but the colors of the symbols in the intro match the guys' colors in terms of what they do the most and the glass of beer is purple
I’m so proud of Eugene for not using his phone while driving. And lol at the CD in his car.
I totally support the #itcanwait. I don't normally travel long distances so I will reply when I am at my destination which is usually within 15 to 30 mins - hour max.
I've seen two videos lately with the TH-camrs using their phone while driving and was horrified. Yes I like you, but I don't want you to have to edit out murdering a pet or worse with your car because you're trying to film - be responsible. Nothing - absolutely nothing - I have ever watched on TH-cam is worth anything dying over.
Our boi is a great role model😊 ALL IN ALL DONT TEXT & DRIVE😫 *just listen to MUSIC😎*
Just has to make sure he doesn't drive drunk and then he'll be the safest driver in the group. --- I still make CDs for my car (buy the songs off itunes). Makes it easier to find the song I want to play than my ipod with 1000+ songs.
Eugene is finally setting a good example for the next generation, and the generation after that. As for the others, I am slightly disappointed.
Winnie Bare He was driving drunk so I wouldn’t say he is a very good model
"Odds of Crashing because of driving while texting: 1 in 4
*We say 'it will never be me'*
Odds of winning the lottery: 1 in 45,057,474
*We say 'you never know, maybe'* "
Preach it Feliciana! Also I looove our name
Feliciana Vargas yeah because the crash is completely in your hands. If you text that'll happen if you don't even have your phone then you won't crash. Lottery is just how lucky you are
That was freaking awesome
if 1 in 4 crashes happen because of texting. 1 in 1 winnings of lottery happen because you have a lottery ticket.
Odds of winning the lottery may be 1 in however many million. But odds of crashing if you take a trip by car, and you text, is surely less than 1 in 4.
Feliciana Vargas love this comment
"what happens if someone tries to call you?"
"...i don't answer??"
RESPONSIBLE DAD YES
agreed! I was so so so happy to hear this! and when he said he put his phone in his bag, I do that and put it on silent AND sometimes in the back seat!
The UK definitely has its share of Texting Drivers but I feel like drivers in the US do it a lot more - I have many American friends and pretty much EVERYONE has done this. And that scares me.
Your Dan profile picture is amazing
@@katmusswoodwind live in the US, can confirm that this behavior is way too common. I see it every time I go on the road. I used to do it but came to my senses and stopped.
okay super late and sorry to ruin the mood but that was Eugene-
🤔🧐 I'm sorry
Jhope's Snakeu's Jams as in. Eugene is like a responsible dad for making that responsible decision. They weren’t referring to Ned aha they were just describing the action as a “dad” thing
I enjoy how everyone says it's all the kids texting and driving, here's me (a millennial) constantly yelling at my mother (a baby boomer) to get off her phone while driving. It can wait people.
My mom TAKES HER HAND OFF THE STEERING WHEEL to text and shes 50. Shes unable to text with one hand. At least most young kids can do it with one hand (still dangerous as all hell), and my dad uses voice commands (also doesnt call people if he knows they're driving!). Unless someone is dying, or is on fire, im not picking up my phone.
Gen-z'er here that can seriously not imagine using my phone driving!
My husband is like this. I keep having to tell him to stop. I don't use my phone while driving unless I am verbally telling Siri to use my car to call someone (I'm like Eugene, yeah, it can wait, even if it's important, it's not gonna be important if I"m dead). Otherwise, I have taught to know what is 60seconds, 120seconds and 180 seconds ahead of you. I make it a game to predict what other people will do and I've had 1 accident in 17years (Not my fault, kids jumped into the street and everyone had to try to slam on their breaks).
SAME!
OMG YES!!!
And my mom has THE AUDACITY to get mad at me because I'm always saying that I refuse to die just because she's being dumb and texting while driving!
I REFUSE to die because of other people. Let me be the cause of my own stupid death.
Ain't nobody taking me with them.
I gotta hand it to that Dr, he is trying so hard to be relatable and fun so that more people will listen to his message. He actually cares.
miranda c it makes me so happy to see someone passionate about doing the right thing, especially when what they’re doing can make a huge positive impact.
Doesn’t matter how slow you’re driving, don’t text and drive. My friend got ran over last year whilst walking ON THE PAVEMENT because the driver was so indulged in their phone that they didn’t even realise that they weren’t on the road. If you don’t care enough to do it for your own safety, think about the harm which you can cause others.
nearly got ran over while crossing the street (at the crosswalk) bc the dude in the car was on his phone + driving fast to top it off. its a lot more dangerous than some like to admit...
a woman was texting while driving, missed a red light, and hit my cousin's EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT friend. she had to get a c-section and was bedridden for months because this woman was so invested in her phone
“What if I hit a cameraman? What if I hit someone today? Keith habersmurder....”
Omg I love this
I literally paused the video right after that pun and scrolled down to like the first comment mentioning it ^^
bro i lost it lmao
xDDD
Don't ever change, Keith.
As a motorcyclist; I humbly request nobody use their phones while driving. Might be a dent in your car, but it could be my life.
finally thank you, I am so annoyed by the fact that people text en drive. I have been in SO MANY dangerous situations because of assholes looking at there phone
I appreciate this comment so much. I don't personally ride (other than occasionally on a dirt bike in my backyard or on a farm), but my dad does quite often, sometimes with me hanging out on the back seat. It's super fun but terrifying at times. Being on a motorcycle really puts into perspective the fact that cars are basically giant metal death machines, a bump from some distracted asshole that would result in just a bit of damage if you're in a car could easily be lethal if you're on a bike! I dunno if you've ever seen pictures of injuries/deaths from motorcycle collisions but holy SHIT it's brutal.
Yes! I couldn't believe some of the statistics that have come up in this series, but it explains so many encounters and close calls I've had with cars as a motorcyclist.
then stop motorcycling then
then again, im too young to even drive anything on wheels besides bikes
New driver here-- these videos have curbed my bad habits before they even started. Honestly, should be required viewing in driver’s ed. Big props to you guys, this was an extremely important series. The roads are marginally safer now thanks to the try guys.
About to start DE and I agree; wasn't intending on any of this but now I'm *really* not
Thank you for implementing good habits and having the mindset of 'ir won't happen to me."
Noice!! Never change the good habits.
I'm currently working to get my licence and I've had some practice driving and, to be honest, it would be too much for me to focus on driving and texting at the same time, for now I have never had my phone in the hand while driving and I hope I never start doing it because shit can happen so fast and I'm still pretty young, people can wait for a response or whatever
"Dead is dead. it doesn't matter how you ended up losing a life."
Man, I believe that is the most important thing to take from this. A really good conclusion to this video. I hope it has opened people's eyes and possibly even saved some lives.
Being in a car with someone who texts gives me the ultimate anxiety. I want nothing more than to slap the phone out of their goddamn hands because it’s not just YOU in the car and ur playing my life now.
This is part of the reason why I ride a scooter-because It forces me to pay attention to assholes who don’t.
You’re right I hope no one ever hits your scooter by swerving bc of being on their phone
Omg same. The only time I've ever given an uber driver a 1 star rating was for texting and driving. I didn't pay you to take my life into your hands.
Reason I won't ever drive, I don't want to harm someone out of another peoples mistakes and deffenetly not because of my own. I know I'm bad at reactiontime and make sense of visual information, I would totaly fuck up . . .
Also I realy how people are irresponsable in there driving habits, "I just look for a second down and than up so where is the problem?" just calculate how much distants you passed in that mement you where not looking . . . its very disturbing or driving with one hand . . . if you have to reakt fast, with one hand you are not in the sligtest able to manouver as fast as you could with both . . . I'm very selective about who I would let drive a car I'm in.
If you ever find yourself in that position, I hope you DO slap the phone out of their hands. If someone had been in the car to do that for a young man a few years back, my friend might still be here.
Maurisa Noble haha
Stunned by how chill Zach, Ned and Keith’s attitudes were towards texting and driving regularly and I hope this experience will change their habits. It’s so easy not to use your phone on the road! If it’s really that urgent just pull over and stop driving, if you can’t be bothered to it can obviously wait 📵
Me too wtf! Didn't realise people could be so chill about texting and driving!
Addiction to any substance is hard to quit. Same with texting & driving. Most of us are glued to our phones & driving doesn't mean you quit your addiction. Eugene's attitude towards drunk &or buzzed driving is a good example of this
@@DaniJHollis I don't think we can count the "texting while driving" as an addiction. It's a bad habit, nothing more. I think labelling it as an addiction is kind of just an excuse. Coming from an addict XD love the Try Guys though....just can't relate ...
@@dominadors4795 Webster says the definition of "addicted" is when one devotes or surrenders (oneself) to something habitually or obsessively. I'd say that a bad habit can certainly become an addiction if it's not curbed properly but that addiction to a cell phone is for sure a real thing imo
@@DaniJHollis sure a bad habit can become an addiction...but remember....addiction is an illness, and needs to be treated as such. A bad habit has to become pretty extreme to become an addiction. That is why it is easy for a "habit" such as smoking to become an addiction because of the chemical changes that happen in your brain as a result. Sure, texting whilst driving makes you feel good, but using the word "addiction", an actual medical problem, to justify texting whilst driving seems rediculous. Addiction also means some kind of withdrawal. You dont GENERALLY get withdrawal from texting. If you treat EVERY bad habit like an addiction, then you reduce how accountable that person is for their own bad decisions. If you drive drunk because you are an addict, you need help. If you drive drunk because you just couldn't be arsed to sort out a lift? Then you are a prat. Same with texting and driving. Using a deliberately loose definition from a dictionary rather than a medical definition for a medical condition doesn't add weight to your argument, it weakens it. NOTE: this whole explanation doesnt apply to my people out there with compulsive disorders such as OCD etc, which could result in an addiction to texting whilst driving. I hope you have a great day x
I'm that person who pulls down my window to yell out at a person who's texting and driving, "I don't wanna die, put that away!" and then almost hit the car in front of me in the process
i just throw my beer at them. Usually gets their attention.
I watched a video (not while driving) where a guy threw bannanas at people who were texting and driving. (While they were at a stop light)
thank you for your service lol
@@micheal2458 I don't condone that cause one day you WILL hit the car in front of you and then who's the idiot for not paying attention lol YOU would also be in trouble with police for "failure to control the vehicle".
😂😂
If yall get that bored in the car, you need to up your playlist game
Exactly. I'm never on my phone when driving. I usually sing my lungs out.
SwedishNerd or podcast game.
Audiobooks are also a good plan
@@kamilareeder943 not really they can get you very distracted
I cringed violently when Zach said "I haven't crashed yet so far so good" like NOOoooOooo
Yep, he's going to kill someone.
Zach, fuck you. Seriously fuck you. You call it an addiction but least people with heroin addictions don't put everyone else's life at risk with their habit. Put your fucking phone down before you kill someone.
I’m sure this was a teachable experience for him
Chris Erwood I’m pretty sure that’s why this is a important experiment so he can realize his mistakes. No need to get so angry at least he admitted to it and is learning from it
@@ChrisErwood I don't get your "I call it an addiction" point. Just because this particular addiction can harm others, doesn't make it any less of an addiction. Also, other addictions can be harmful to others, including heroin. What if the heroin addict convinces their friends to try it? What if other people breathe in the smoke that other people have been breathing out while smoking?
So so shocked he made that statement ! I actually thought he was more intelligent that that. 😢
*KEITH HABERSMURDER I’M CRYING*
I choked
Kinda sad how everyone is upset over texting and driving but didn't get as riled up/upset over the drunk/high driving. Like, how can you blow those off just because they're "not as" risky, cause these are all risks that can take lives.
Yeah the comments section for the high driving is the worst.
All of these things are dangerous, but somehow texting seems ok to most people. When youre drunk and high you at least watch in front of you. When youre driving you should be at your best possible state, or not drive at all. End of.
Specially since driving drunk is the number one cause of death in car accidents.
The other videos the guys weren't like, "Yeah, I do this all the time. Every day." That's the difference.
Hannah Jaco, yes they did. Every video had one try guy who said they had done it before multiple times. And they also stated that everything was exaggerated to show how common and prevalent it is.
I think this is the most irresponsible out of the 4 because you are concious and awake yet you chose to be distracted just for you to stay online or still text someone
I don’t want to be that person, but I’m totally gonna be that person. I just don’t understand how casual Zach, Ned, and Kieth are about texting and driving. As a person who was involved in a car accident that claimed the lives of two of my friends all because the driver was distracted, it’s a little bit infuriating. I really hope that doing this video was enlightening to them and that “seeing Eugene’s super cute photo in the first 5 minutes” isn’t worth endangering your own or someone else’s life.
Edit: thank you Eugene for being responsible!!
I have never experienced something like what you describe. I'm so sorry for what happened, but don't ever be afraid to "be that person." Sharing your pain in the way you just did takes strength, and it saves lives. Thank you!
zach: i dont just casually use my phone when i drive, im like reading IN DEPTH ARTICLES.
me: weird flex but ok...
definition of an odd flex
He's just tryna seem cool and philosophical, he's always playing up the feminist or the activist in the group, when he's clearly the first boy that just never got to be under masculine and he takes that out on others
I don't skip ads so Wesley can go to college
Reeeeeeee copied
You mean weskeith?
We should all do that
I skip ads and use ad blockers because I don’t care
Mason
good for you mason.
Zack is the epitome of why people text and drive. "I do it all the time and I haven't crashed yet." Stop texting and driving people!! I have almost been hit by multiple people that have been on their phones.
Exactly. His irresponsible behavior is putting the responsibility of avoiding him on everyone around him. I pretty much guarantee, if you text and drive and have never crashed, a lot of other better drivers have worked hard to make that happen.
@@KTGetc Omg so true!! I have become such a defensive driver and have to quickly adjust to make room for someone who is completely unaware of what they are doing because of phones, talking to passengers, even putting on makeup! I've been nearly forced into a ditch multiple times because they drift lanes and they think nothing happened or they didn't weave bad at all simply because I went to extremes to make up for their lapse!
I got so upset hearing him I had to pause the video multiple times.
My infant son and I were almost killed by a man who was texting. He quickly glanced at his phone as he was turning (guess he didn’t see us, didn’t even use his turn signal) and had to screech to a stop to avoid slamming into me.
The turn happened so fast, and when he looked at the phone I’d thought he was stopping at the light. And I’m a person who is VERY careful in crosswalks because I don’t trust drivers.
It was scary
Right? I was in the left lane on the highway the other day because i needed to make a left turn, I signaled well before my median, but as I checked my rearview and slowed down, i noticed a car flying up on my ass end so I had to quickly adjust my plans and floor it as not to be rear ended by someone doing 65 probably 70. And my two year old daughter was in the backseat. It was some old bitch on her phone and I'd never been more tempted to murder someone before that day.
have yall read his comment, its pinned😐
Driving a car is already multitasking: You have to watch the road, anticipate anything, manage speed, manage the line you're driving, shifting gears if that applies. I'm really disappointed at how Zach Keith and Ned think about texting and driving, while it is so easy to prevent. Put it where you can't reach it, on silent. You're not going to die because you missed a random text in a 20 minute commute. You may very well will die if you do check that text.
It makes me so mad to see them act that careless. How can Ned get bored while driving, I just don't get it. You are operating a machine that could, if mishandled, easily kill other people. You could get killed yourself because you didn't react fast enough. Being completely oblivious to those dangers is not understandable to me, and I don't want to end up like that.
Exactly if it’s super important you can just pull over
Everybody texting back “Ew” at Ned’s selfie is how my friends support me by roasting me every damn day.
Someone crashed into me about a month because they were on their phone, just had my first surgery... second surgery coming soon due to the crash. Don’t use your phone and drive.
i hope the surgery goes well!!
I hope everything goes well ♥️
Karen Andrea so sorry that happened to you. Sending you well wishes on your surgery.
I think that something that wasn't highlighted enough in these videos is that, yes, all of this is a danger to yourself
But to others too ?
I could never forgive myslef if I hurt someone or an animal because I was making a boomerang
Hope your surgery goes well
Zach you can’t call yourself the best driver of the try guys if you’re going to brag about your skills of texting and driving
Absolutely agree
Absolutely agree! He said it way too proudly, which is really sad :(
FUCKING THIS
Luckily they cleared this all up
My friend's mom was killed because the driver that hit her was texting. Please do not text and drive. It's so scary to me how sooo many people do this and think it's okay.
bobby brown y you gotta be soo negative or why tell this depressing thing in this platform, be positive like i dont go about to telling pregnant women that my dad left
Home of Epic Gamers this has gotta be the dumbest comment ever..... I'm trying to discourage texting and driving because it's extremely dangerous and very common.
Home of Epic Gamers that’s not the same thing at all. They’re bringing awareness to an issue on a relevant video.
my condolences omg that really sucks :(
It's been 2 years and I just noticed the little icons of the things they're doing (drunk, sober, texting, and sleep deprived) are the colors of the Try Guy that's the most guilty of that thing.
Keith - blue - gets high
Ned - pink - sleep deprived cause Wes
Zach - green - texts while driving
Eugene - purple - drinks
So glad you guys did texting. One of my friend's brother was killed last year by a texting driver.
Sorry to hear that. Hope your doing well.
I'm very sorry ):
Sarah K. That’s terrible hope your friends doing well 💖
Plays despacito
So sorry I completely understand, my brother for some reason thought it’s acceptable to drive drunk, thank god he’s never done this, I used to text and drive when I was younger, but I myself accidentally ran off the road, just me no one on the road, but I shot probably twenty five feet off a blind corner because I didn’t know how close I was, or how fast I was going, went out and bought a Bluetooth last time I ever looked at my phone while driving
*It is a privilege to get your driver's license and drive, it is NOT a right and with that privilege comes an awesome responsibility.*
I felt that.
They need to make it more difficult to get your license cause it is Way too easy to get it lol
iXON Horizon hey man you’re a dick
Katelyn Maybe they are but people should know the difference between privilege and privileged. It's a good point.
I felt the "dead is dead, it does not make a diference how you ended up losing your life" even more
@iXON Horizon hey man, I am taking it seriously. I don't understand what made you think that I'm not. And I'm sorry if you meant that because I wrote PRIVILEGED because I did not mean to write that. It's a typo and I fixed it already. Like I said... I'm sorry. Also, I get the constructive criticism however, like I said, I'm not trying to make it seem like a joke or whatever. By saying that I FELT THAT for me meant that it struck me so much and that I will remember it because I do understand it's context. I understand that people can get their licences easily and that people tend to be so careless when they drive and that not everyone necessarily has the luxury to do it so to be able to actually drive means so much so we should all be careful when we drive regardless of whether or not we are under the influence or not.
I hope you understand what I meant by my comment. Thank you and hope you have a good day.
What the hell is up with Zach. He thinks texting isn’t a big deal and relies on the features in his car to much. On top of that he harassed Eugene for not using his phone. I’m legit ashamed of them.

Ruby Wants Friends I want this to be a thing
This one touched a nerve with me. I'm now disabled with a spinal cord injury, TBI, neuropathy, DDD and more due to a distracted driver. My kid's were only 5 and 9 when someone hit us head on. My 5 year old was with my husband and I. My kids only remember a mom who has debilitating pain daily and in bed 80% of the time. They are now 18 and 14. I've missed out on the last decade of my life thanks to someone who felt something else was more important than paying attention while driving. I'm not going to suddenly get better either so this is for the rest of my forever. I miss out on my kids and my life because someone else couldn't miss out for a moment.
Edit: not to mention titanium cages in my spine and a spinal cord stimulator implant and multiple surgeries and 500,000 in medical bills, I had to learn to walk, talk, and tie my shoes again. Many days I can't walk. 3 years of continual PT 3 days a week, and 6 more of random PT and bimonthly Dr appointments and hard core meds. I no longer get to have my career because of my pain and body and I'm not reliable because of it. It's not living its existing, miserably.
Paranormal Seeker This is soooooo sad!!!! Noooooooooo! 😭
@@bb-876 its a reality.
I'm am so sorry that happened to you. It's terrible that some people don't think about the consequences their actions have on others. I hope that through some miraculous recovery you are able to get better. So sorry that you have so much pain as well.😢😭😭
@@doglover8125 Tank you I appreciate that. Fingers always crossed!
Eugene did very well, I’m so proud of him. Keith, Zach, and Ned however, were acting like my last three brain cells while studying.
Nimrit Randhawa omg girl ahah
Eugene is the responsible crazy guy.
remember when people gave Eugene a lot of shit to drinking and driving?? literally ned, keith, and zach just admitted to texting and driving and not feeling bad about it. if they don’t get the same shit i will be pissed.
Growls) yes I'm a partial furry) YOU DO NOT BE MEAN TO MEH SMOL BEAN
They have ... mostly before your comment was posted as well ...

Zebras 724 i posted this five minutes after the video was posted.
Nothing on your phone is more important than yours or other peoples lifes
The fastest course completion was Ned drunk and the slowest was Ned high. 😂
Ned Issa mood
I noted that too lol I saw the drunk one for ned and thought "jeez Ned relax!" then I saw the high one and went "not THAT much!" lol
"I didn't get into a car accident, a car accident got into me," 😂😂
“If you think you are the exception, you might become a statistic.” OOF PREACH NED PREACH
Shocked at how everyone besides Eugene goes on their phone while driving. That’s upsetting.
Yeah! It makes me sad and upset to see these people who are role models whether they like it or not "promoting" being on their phone while driving because "they are bored" or "used to it" it makes me angry because they have a massive audience...
@@Melissa-sx9vh they are not "promoting" it, they are actually doing the opposite, and it's like you're saying that they should just lie and say they don't do it even if they do for the sake of their audience
@Mélissa Lafaille they're not promoting it; they're trying to prove how bad texting while driving is by making this video
I think I’ve only been in the car who is on their phone while driving once. ONCE. Not including like Siri or skipping music. And all three of them do it regularly? I don’t understand, do you not understand that it’s still dangerous??
Devilrock2 9 that's the point of this video, to bring awareness to this. they said that they would change their habits
during this series if a try guy admitted to possibly still doing one of the 4 things, they're saying it to show you that sometimes habits are hard to break. i don't see how you could think that they'd go through all of this and still not care.
This is very surprising to me especially the whole boredom aspect. I live for car rides with my music playing, it's possibly my favorite time of the day. I know most people have texted and driven at least once, but like Zach (who has a possibly deadly case of FOMO) reading articles? Scrolling through Instagram? Seriously? It's really appalling to hear, I didn't think people were actually this unsafe while driving.
Side Note: The fact that they did this last is most accurate due to the fact that people are more likely to drive distracted on a route that is familiar to them.
I think it's probably because they live in LA with a lot of slow moving traffic. I'm not excusing the behavior. It's just that I understand the boredom.
You adjust your behavior accordingly then, get into podcasts, listen to ebooks, don't fucking drive and use public transportation instead.
Preach
I don't understand that at all either. The boredom excuse is a pretty lame one and just highlights egotistical attributes. I live in London and today drive 12 miles that took 50 minutes. Not my usual journey to be fair, but still something I do occasionally. What did I do? Listened to music, spoke to people, enjoyed the time and drive. If you have that crappy of an attention span and need that much constant gratification from others, then they make shouldn't drive? Public transport, walk, uber whatever, just don't endanger lives.
While everybody talks about how disappointed they are in Ned, Zach and Keith, I just wanna say that Eugene surprised me and got my respect for never using his phone while driving.
여민하 True but he also admitted to driving drunk in the previous video.
But he selfishly drives drunk. So it doesn't matter either way. 🤷
Yeah, they are human and not perfect..
"is Becky actually ten fried chickens in a trench coat"
What😂😂😂
Good for Eugene tho like... I’m impressed, everyone else I’m definitely disappointed
I think everyone pinned Eugene as the king of vices, and while we all figured he’d be the kind of all of these, he only drove drunk and sleepy. Sleepy driving isn’t as easy to prevent, depending on your life, and everyone’s done that at some point. But Keith and Zach actually did more of the dangerous driving habits than Eugene. So really I think he and Ned deserve credit (while Ned does text, he doesn’t drive drunk or high).
Amelia Rose true
@@ameliarose47 Fuck that. Drunk driving is selfish as shit. You people are actively putting down the other three but letting Eugene get off Scott free after he's admitted to drunk driving multiple times. They're all in the wrong. Period.
I have never been more attracted to Eugene as to when he said, "I don't answer."
Ooo. Responsibility. 😍😍😍
yesssss right?!
He drinks and drives though
While drink and driving still is bad, texting and driving is completely dumb. You are not even watching the road and that's like driving 101.
@@angelicaprisk8615 yeah he drinks and drives, but alcohol makes you do dumb things because it messes with your brain. not that thats a good thing, but the difference is, texting is something you do completely sober, so you should KNOW the risks and be able to stop yourself. again, not that drink driving is good, its just that its harder to stop yourself than texting
@@elizagrant5620 Yeah I'm just pointing out that we shouldn't ignore the fact that eugene has a very nonchalant attitude towards drink driving. I agree that while you're sober you should have the common sense to put your phone away. Even Apple came out with a "do not disturb while driving" feature that automatically turns on when it detects the car driving, and I'm sure there are apps that do the same so really there are no excuses
8:00
finally something that has aged well
Came looking for this comment lol
yess i
saw this on tumblr 😋
@@himarihina omg lmao that was my tumblr post 😭
A girl I knew got killed in a car accident on the way to our volleyball tournament. Someone in another car was texting and driving and swerved into the other lane hitting her car head on. The person that was texting lived. Its not just about the fact that you are putting your own life at risk its abut that fact that you are risking the lives of OTHERS! Is sending a text or checking social media really worth having to live the rest of your life as a murderer?
I knew a guy who actually jumped off a train into a bunch of bears, who he fought them all off only to get hit by that same train 2 days later right after marrying Ariana grande, ya right fuckface
Lol can’t wait for everyone get super pissed off at his comment, it’s gonna be so funny 😂
wtf did you wrote that, it's totally unrelated to the person you're answering to
i think im gonna follow eugenes "out of sight out of mind" policy unless i need gps...
Get a cheap sat nav !
Sat Nav is way better, for starters it's easier to read. I have troubles using Google map when I walk.
yeah, I have done that ever since i started driving years ago
Get a Garmin.
Yup. Its not worth it to text and drive (I got a very expensive ticket for it once and never did it again). If you're bored, just sing along to the radio, call using a bluetooth, or listen to a news/comedy radio channel
three years later and "Kieth Habersmurder" absolutely annihilated me
I really respect them for being honest about whether or not they’ve driven under the influence, while texting, etc. because they could have easily lied and said they would never do that but instead they’re admitting it and trying to learn and change and help others do the same. What Ned said was spot-on; despite knowing the risks we often think we’re the exception.
I respect their honesty, but their casual and almost braggy talking about how they text and drive all the time is a shitty way of going about it.
I'm a little disappointed in how nonchalantly they talked about their texting and driving habits. I know they're trying to be comedic but that's kinda scary. That being said, I'm glad they did this series to show just how dangerous the conditions can be.
I think they might have exaggerated this, in order for this to allow those who do to relate to this video and then realise how bad it is. People don't like hearing negative criticisms straight away, so producing these results can act as a wake up for those who normalise texting while driving.
Have to say this was the hardest one to watch. And I’m really shocked that it was totally normal for you guys ( minus Eugene) to txt while driving. I was in a MVA with someone who was texting. And because he was he didn’t realise his speed or that I had stopped for an accident up front. It’s not only the dead is dead philosophy. I ended up with lifelong injuries. That have lead to an neurological condition. I’m in so much pain every singe day. My kids who were in the back one of whom has hip and back issues from the accident. And we live in a country where there is no ability to sue. So no income for me for the rest of my life. And I bet that man doesn’t even think of me and continues to txt. Please Zach - if nothing else read my story and put the phone in the back of the car. It’s not only killing people that matters - life long injuries matter too. Please please don’t txt and drive. You can’t go back in time once you have injured someone. 💛
Lilly Kelly I'm very sorry for your story. sending all my love and best wishes. that's all
Lilly Kelly I was driving with my baby sister in my parents’ small car after a day out. I had (legally) stopped to turn left, had my blinker on. A huge truck came flying from behind me and hit me so hard the car stopped working. We couldn’t even drive it off to the side of the road.
The woman apologized. She said she was texting.
That could have killed me or my little sister. I was able to throw an arm in front of my sister so she didn’t hit her head on the dash, because even with the proper restraints we were hit *really* hard.
Texting and driving could have killed me! I also deal with pain to this day because of it.
Killed my sister.
and broke both my legs and back. I'm older now its been about 10 years but yeah fuck everyone who does it.
So sorry and angry for all of your injuries and loss. Texting while driving is so stupid, reckless, and totally avoidable... and usually innocent people pay the price.
yo I spaced for a second last year when I was practicing driving and panicked when I zoned back, stepped on the gas instead of the brake, and almost ran like 80 into a fuckin tree. I can't imagine taking my eyes off to type a text or even worse, being under the influence or sleepy.
one thing I want to add tho that I haven't seen a lot of people mentioning:
-eating while driving
-driving with people who are drunk or high (or just wild children)
-doing makeup while driving
-zoning like I did
any distraction that makes you take your eyes off the road for even a second could take your life. stay safe kids
I stepped on the gas instead of the brake as well. I thought I was the only one.
one of my best friends died two years ago in a car accident, because someone else thought
whatsapp was more important than paying attention. i'm actually disappointed in zach, keith & ned.
Yh
I need this to get all the likes so that it gets to the top of the comments and the guys are forced to read this
Same, I was shocked at how almost funny they thought it was. Even if you think you are the best multitasker in the world, its still illegal- are you willing rick the life of someone else because you needed to check instagram? Glad they realise how really really sickeningly dangerous it is.
Growls) don't say your disappointed with my small bean
Also I'm sorry that your friend died I cant imagine how sad you would have been
@@deceitsanders210 your "small bean" is a grown ass adult who is putting people's lives at risk.
On the off chance anyone struggling read(s) this: If you're serious about having difficulty stopping even after the experiment, TOSS THE PHONE IN THE BACKSEAT over your shoulder where you can't physically reach it!
I've done this with friends to help break the habit when they asked for help. This works better than remembering to turn it off or on silent because
A) you don't have to mess with settings,
B) muscle memory is stronger and sometimes faster to rely on,
C) it's like quitting cold-turkey because you can't have the temptation to check your phone if you can't reach it,
and D) It's easier to recognize when you're slipping if your hands are reaching for the seatbelt to get the phone.
(If you're still trying after that, you've got a bigger addiction problem and might need real help. Therapy is a thing and it's not a bad or last-resort thing. It's there to assist, much like a check-up or a trainer at a gym. But for your brain.)
*Edited: In light of Zach's comment, I removed his name. I don't want to contribute to the "Specifically Zach is dangerous" narrative when he has clearly explained the exaggerated nature of the video.
the glovebox works well too! it muffles the sound of my phone so I often don't even know someone has tried to call/text me until I am getting out of my car :D
I think it’s irresponsible the way he suggested taking “baby steps” to quit texting. Meanwhile you could kill somebody just because you want to feel good about texting a little less. How hard is it to just put it down!?? People use the excuse of “phone addiction” constantly, and it kills a lot of people.
@@stepmothercity I know right, they could kill themselves or someone else or end up in a wheelchair. I really hope they look at this video and changes their habits.
I'm just commenting so this comment has more chance of getting closer to the top and gets seen more because its important

I was really disappointed by their attitude in the video, it’s really not ok to touch your phone while in your car. As much as it was overlaid with the professionals saying not to do it, and the summary at the end, I wish the guys were more outspoken against doing this *throughout* the video. Thanks Eugene for making the right choice. *EDIT:* Thanks for addressing the concerns I, and other, had for this video. I appreciate you acknowledging them and continuing the conversation, proud of how you handled this :)
I disagree with your thought, though I appreciate where you are coming from. I think there is a certain impact that hits people when they see confident people fail and then have an epiphany. If they had been negative throughout the whole video, it would have looked like another fake PSA video, whereas this was intended to be more real and have PSA potential after the fact.
Umm but Eugene didn't make the right choice in the Drunk driving video??? 🤔💁🏻♀️
No. They were supposed to do that (texting while driving) to show viewers how dangerous it could be when doing so on the road. It's to teach us what could happen. Yeah all of them text while driving except Eugene. That's the point in this video. We should all be careful while driving. Texting and driving at the same time is NOT safe at all.
@@Paixpeacehippy I didn't comment on the drunk driving video at all, just commenting on this video :)
@@cheshirexx2623 Yes, that was the point of the video for when they were on the closed course, but in the other videos they all acknowledged the dangers & legalities whereas in this one they were generally more blasé about it when speaking about how they act in the real world at the beginning. They did admit to having driven while tired, high, have drank alcohol in the others, yes, but I feel like in this video they didn't get the point across as well that they themselves shouldn't be doing it from the beginning. With the results showing that this resulted in the worst collisions on their closed course, joking about it as much as was done I don't feel was as great of an idea. I'm in a country where touching your phone at all can get you a ticket, and I do think this is the correct approach :)
What shocked me the most was Ned. He has a newborn baby, for crying out loud. I don't care how bored he gets while driving. Would he text and drive with his baby in the car? I hope what he said at the end changes his behavior.
Seriously, if he's bored he should just turn on some music. I think listening to music or a radio station would be much safer for himself, his baby and everyone else.
You literally see everyone in any situation doing it. I see more drivers texting than not texting on the road that are young, old, in a car full of kids, in a car with a dog, in a huge truck...it’s absolutely ridiculous and setting an awful example for newer drivers (such as myself). Texting someone back is not nearly as important as focusing on the road. Do what Eugene does; put your phone out of reach.
Liz Allen it was a joke.
@@christiana3430 you don't joke about people's lives, no matter the occasion nor reason
Thank you so much. This gets me so angry
Once in my debate class, the topic was "Should Texting and Driving be legal?" I was on the negative side, and my opponent was on the positive side. She ultimately won the topic in class, but the next day, she got into a car accident in the school's parking lot because she was on her phone. I like to think that the powers that be proved my point.
I'm curious as to what she said that made her win the debate. It seems like common sense to keep it illegal.
@@eyeswithhope13 it was years and years ago, but she brought up an example that went something like needing to contact the police while driving in case there's an accident. But she won based on a majority vote, not because her examples and reasons were any good. The debates (which were only for the classroom and were not official competitions) were more like popularity contests.
@@strawberryherpes528 Ah, that sucks
@KuroKoala Haha. I didn't even think of that. Lmao
oh. my. whaaaaaat
I'd like to applaud how transparent the four of you have been throughout this series. Hopefully this experience has helped the four of you change your driving habits for the better.
10:26
Zack: *Crashes*
Zack: *Freezes*
Zack: *Texts ‘Duck my life’*
Zack: _”Whoops”_
Zach: "Am I gonna have to die to realize how bad this is?"
No... But I sure hope he realizes BEFORE he kills an animal or a kid.
People who text and drive pisses me off. Drunk drivers etc too ofc. Like I don't care about their life and safety, it's their choice. It's just that their choice goes on behalf of *my* safety as well, and I don't want to be a random victim of plain stupidity.
It made me feel sick when zach was talking so casually about being on his phone while driving!!
I cant believe Zack, Keith and Ned on how they talked about texting and driving. Especially for Zack to shrug it off as an 'addiction'. If you struggle with being on your phone while driving PUT IT ON SILENT or TURN IT OFF or PUT IT ON AEROPLANE MODE. There are so many options which make texting because 'you can't help it' a stupid excuse. You may not care what happens to yourself but putting others in danger cos you want to be "first to see instagram" is selfish
Fwz_Finnagan he’s not “shrugging it off” he’s admitting he has a problem and is most likely addicted to his phone there’s a difference lol
Whatever you're doing, just stop it. He's an adult. He knows that he need to stop using his phone on the road but he didn't. He admitted his wrongdoings and HE SHRUGGED IT OFF bcs he haven't gotten into an accident yet.
Zach! He really doesn't like people misspelling his name 😕
He literally has a pinned comment explaining this
12:17 you and Adam Levine have become the statistic
Real psa Ned apparently needed was to not cheat on his wife
I've only watched a minute and a half but I'm already sort of....peeved that 3/4ths of you guys text while you drive. Like, driving is BORING? Ok, yeah, put music on, sing a long, listen to a book on tape. 150 years ago driving wouldn't have been seen as boring...you're driving a 2 ton metal death trap at speeds anywhere from 50mph to 90mph on a high way. That ain't boring. That's dangerous as shit
Caitlin Mangan preach
Wait you drive 90mph in America!!!!!!!??????
I would also suggest for Ned to get a manual transmission too. With one hand on the steering and one hand on the shifter, he won't have time to update his instagram.
Minnie Riccevan Speed limits vary by state. I live in the Pacific Northwest and the highest around here (that I’ve seen) is 75mph. The highest I’ve seen anywhere in the U.S. was 80mph in Utah. But of course many people speed on highways too, so I’ve seen people going at least 100mph (if not more) before.
I know right! I have a super long playlist that I set up before I set off so I don't have to touch anything while I'm actually driving.
This is a series that everyone should watch. I secretly want to see a bonus episode where they all drive drunk, high, sleep deprived, and while texting.
but i dont want them to die
omg yes
nikki8889991122
Not a good idea
The problem with having people watch this is TTGs really overacted and were clowning around a lot in between the driving. It's really easy for kids to dismiss.
Recipe for disaster
good on eugene for always putting his phone in his bag before he drives and not looking at it while driving!!! as for the other try guys... i'm disappointed. tsk tsk. i really hate it when people drive irresponsibly like that, whether it's drunk, high, or on your phone. i hate seeing people on social media recording themselves or doing lives while they're driving. it not only could hurt the person doing it but it could hurt others on the road. There are way too many people who lose their lives or are majorly and permanently hurt because of this and sometimes those people weren't even the ones driving distracted. i always get on my fiance for looking at his phone while he drives, it scares me. even when he's looking at the gps. i can't imagine losing him especially from something so stupid like him being distracted or someone else causing an accident with him. i'm surprised Ned does this at all considering he is a father. would he do that with wes in the car? i'm sure he doesn't, i hope he doesn't but even so, no one should put themselves or others at risk anyway. if it's that much of an addiction do what eugene does and put your phone away and silence it before you start driving! habits can be broken. and whatever calls and texts you get CAN WAIT.
Q-Yang Exactly, my brother lost the use of his legs for texting and driving. It’s terrifying.
@@Cherry-hu4xm Sorry to hear that. I hope he is recuperating as well as he possibly can.
totally agree
He does drink and drive though..
Brodie Vickers yeah thats just as bad.
I absolutely LOVE how passionate the doctor was throughout the whole series! I deeply appreciate the educational purpose of the series and how you guys managed to keep it fun. Love you guys so much!
My best friend and her brother passed away because of someone texting and driving . stop texting and driving people .
So sorry for your loss. I wish people would stop creating these totally avoidable accidents...
Patty Baltazar I’m sorry for your loss
I'm so upset and have lost a bit of respect for Zach, Ned and Keith. NED HAS A BABY!!!!! Wtf is Ariel going to do if he were to die in a car crash while texting and driving?! How hard is it to think of your families and wanting to get home to them? I like Social media and use it a shit ton, but I keep off of it when I'm driving. I may have life insurance, but no parent ever wants to outlive their child and then get paid for it. Like: "Congratulations, you didn't teach your child how to respect human lives! Yay!"
i doubt he texts and drives with wes in the car
@@adelinesky6688 I'm pretty sure that May meant what Ariel was going to do if Ned alone died in a car crash, not with Wes.
@@adelinesky6688 I think May meant if Ned were to die. Not necessarily with Wes in car. Of course he wouldn't do it with the baby. At least I hope not 😱
Oh my god shut upppp u can’t die of crash to cone
adeline sky then he doesn’t think of anyone else’s children
PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN WHILE YOU'RE DRIVING PEOPLE!! i no longer get in the car with one of my friends driving because she is constantly texting and i value my life too much for her to risk it over something so dumb
I always make a point with my friends that i value my life and they better not be distracted
And everyone still asks why I'm terrified to drive... or just being near roads in general
Nope, it makes complete sense to me. 😁
Me just babbling:
Being in an airplane many kilometers in the air is almost over 30 times safer than standing ANYWHERE near a road! 😰
Why? Because in an airplane they take safety precautions, for the safety precautions, they acknowledge the dangers and act accordingly. 😁
Meanwhile on the road everyone has forgotten that getting into an accident with a car going 60 km an hour is like dropping said car from A Three-story building...😖
When that hits the ground, it goes SMASH!
I haven’t double checked all these facts, so if you wanna know more then google stuff like ‘ how dangerous is the road’ I’m not saying you cannot trust me, but I’m a stranger and I can sometimes get a little over dramatic. So google it and create your own opinion of this topic. 🧐
Thanks for reading 🤗
same, I couldn't live in a city without subway trains
My grandpa was killed two years ago by a stupid teen texting and driving. This is such an important topic to discuss. Don't do it.
Cosmobyadrienne I’m so sorry for your loss
Cosmobyadrienne Hope he rest in peace and sorry for your loss :(
0:22 I like how Zach specifically says "stop doing that", which implies this isn't the first time someone has casually walked into the bathroom with a camera while he was on the toilet.
"Dead is dead." It sounds dumb but wow, that is so true. It doesn't matter if you were "only" checking your phone at the stoplight if you run the light and kill someone or die.
This has 100% stopped me having my phone out in the car. I dont usually use it just have it on the seat beside me but Eugene is right, out of sight out of mind, too much of a temptation.
Same. I've never once used it in the car but I'd be lying if the temptation to answer a message at red lights was never there, and I'm definitely taking his approach - out of sight, out of mind is the way to go. It's good to disconnect for a while.
Dang looks like the series really did have its intended impact! Even if it were only a portion of the audience who drives, I'm glad that the video left you with that impression. Heck, even before the series driving makes me too anxious, so watching through all the videos made me more cautious while driving
Im learning to drive right now and I literally leave my phone at home for every lesson
These four videos were very difficult to watch with extreme emotions for me. I'm a truck driver and have seen all these. We have such a great view into your 4 wheelers, we see when you're bobbing your body because you're drunk, your head slowly dropping from fatigue, your paranoia when an LEO is within a mile behind you, and for pete sake put down the phone. I've never went a day over the road and didn't see some idiot texting and driving.
Keith using voice command had the right idea but executed it poorly.
Also ya'll earned my subscription, be safe because you all have someone who would be financially, emotionally, spiritually devastated if you died because of these (even if you don't hit anyone else)
This was such a good series! I think it will resonate with people a lot more than traditional PSA videos, and I think a big part of that is how honest the try guys were here. A lot of people have very casual attitudes about distracted driving and driving under the influence, and I think a lot of people roll their eyes at the sort of dramatized PSA videos they show in a typical drivers Ed class or commercial because it's like "I've done those things and I was just fine." It's great that this videos showed that it's easy to overestimate how good of a driver you are. I think it's important that Zach says at the beginning that he honestly thinks this will be the easiest challenge, and then he messes up, because that's the attitude that most drivers seem to have.
Great response, super agree
I am currently studying to get my drivings license and this series seriously kinda inspires me to be a good driver and think extra about not doing these things whilst i drive :)
webba03 I actually hope for drivers license schools actually use these videos, because yeah Eugene did amazing while intoxicated but failed texting and driving.
SAMEEE
Zach seriously needs to stop justifying texting while driving. It doesn't matter if you've never crashed before or if your car helps you to try and prevent crashing. He might not think that it's a big deal but he could potentially harm others around him. To see him continue to use his phone while driving even after the experiment is disappointing.
i pointed out in my own comment that even if he hasnt crashed he could have possibly caused other people to do so without knowing
I highly agree PinkLemonadez !
His proud of his russian roulette habit is insanely disappointing.
But that was the point he was making... he doesn't need you to go harping on about it all high and mighty, because he KNOWS, and that's why he was pointing it out in the video
@@rachaelb9952 He was *bragging* about how his car had special functions that would prevent him from crashing. Even if he was using his behaviour as a warning to others, he obviously didn't learn his lesson because he went right back to it the next day. I love the try guys as much as any other fan but I do think he shouldn't have behaved this way in the video
just keith at 11:30
"oh no"
he instantly knew it was the dog.
Ned, what if Wes or Ariel was in your car? Would you put their lives at risk by texting? Even if you don't text while they're with you, how would you feel if someone else who was texting hit your family? You could be that person to some other family.
Zach, imagine someone hits your dog with a car, and you find out it was because they were texting. How would you feel? Don't do that to someone else.
Keith, imagine Becky in the car or walking across the street. Would you text and put her at risk? Even if you weren't texting, would you want other drivers to be texting and putting her at risk?
I hope everyone who watched or participated in this video thinks of their loved ones.
That's exactly what I was thinking. And does Ned want Wes to grow up without a dad, just because he was bored and decided to risk his life and the lives of everyone else on the road? Ariel would be a widow and they'd probably lose the house without Ned. If they think it's boring driving, try being stuck in a hospital bed for weeks or a wheelchair for the rest of their lives. I can't believe they're that callous and stupid. I'm really angry about this. I wanted to shake Zach to make him stop laughing about it, as though texting while driving was cute. It's not, Zach. Grow up!
@@calistalmfao7473 - Just because he might not do it with his family in the car, doesn't mean he can't hit another family on the road. He wouldn't want someone else who was texting to put his family in danger.
That's my point -- people who text while driving or drive under the influence aren't just a danger to themselves and their loved ones -- they're a danger to others too. And even if they manage to drive safely, they won't be able to react as quickly if someone else drives dangerously near them. You can't criticize another person for texting while driving if you do it yourself. "Treat others how you want to be treated" and all that.
Ned's quote is so powerful. "If you think you are the exception, you might become a statistic."

*oh me*
I don’t get what’s so hard with putting your phone away while driving
Because you will forget to like and subscribe
There’s studies that it is a lot like an addiction, and so that is the same as telling an addict to just stop using drugs
GPS.
Cydney M agreed. It’s so selfish.
i know ·-· just use the Bluetooth so you can answer your phone when someone calls😗✋🏻
Damn Zach, your speech in the beginning saying you could never quit texting and driving sucks. You can kill someone, seriously. It’s not worth it
My friends grandfather was killed two years ago when a teenage driver was preoccupied with their phone and ran a red light. My cousin was in the hospital for two days last year because she was texting and drove into a ditch. Three years ago one of my best friends, and two other kids, died in a car accident, because the girl driving was on her phone. It's scary how distracted we get by our phones. And we all know it's bad, yet we still do it. I personally put my phone in the glove box while I'm driving. Its still connected to my Bluetooth so I can still play music and navigate, but I don't have the distraction of notifications and texting. I don't want to hurt myself, or anyone else, because I was driving distracted.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your friend, that can’t be easy but at least you’re doing your part in putting the safety of yourself and others as number one priority.
Im so sorry for all of your loss. I dont know why people are so stupid that text or phone call can wait its not worth someone losing their lives :( my thoughts to you and your family and friends xx
Shut yo bigass mouth
@@JinsFavouriteArmy why was that comment necessary?
Fatima Dalal what a small minded, ignorant comment.
I'd like to see a follow up video, on any changed behaviour. Zach already failed in the short term.
Curious if this experiment had any meaningful impact on Keith, Ned and Zach.
Just for posting this video, that goes against the whole point of the series, I don't think they were impacted. But really I hope they read the comments and do a follow up video, cause it's very much needed.
