Well... this is where the saga ends.... Thank you Matt, loved the video, now I can sleep peacefully. For real, it means a lot :) Probably gonna watch it few more times haha
Thank you for bravely speaking out about Pewitis. As someone who’s been struggling with buying a new gun weekly, thank you for sharing our struggle 🙏❤️
As someone who struggles with depression, chronic pain and anxiety, I think I also have Pewitis. However being disabled my income is really limited, especially now as my mother in law is dying from cancer and we have been spending a ton in gas to see her, I'm gonna need you to help me buy guns, i'm open for adoption lol. Gofundme hasn't helped at all with our costs or her medical bills, we literally have not had a single donation, even from family...... HELP ME
Hey, Matt. I work for the fire department and I've always wondered "How bulletproof is a fireman's helmet?". Id love to send you one so we can find out.
Feeling his patients pulse and his own pulse at the same time to diagnost him just proves how damn skilled that doctor is. Seeing this competence alone made me shed a tear, what a damn great human being
@@Benzy670 It's more because of the merchandise business, this channel was completely demonetized YEARS ago. Even when it was allowed to make money, it only made enough to pay for new pews and freedom seeds, definitely not millions.
@@notcapnbloodbeard Don't be surprised if the bullet only travels a foot or two, if that. There is no pressure buildup so the bullet has no moment. In fact, sometimes the bullet doesn't fly out at all and the gunpowder instead rips a hole in the side of the casing with the bullet still stuck in the casing. I used to put bullets in fire and watch them go pop. Trust me, I know.
Day 1: Alright Matt I got one for you. I used to work armed security in a packing warehouse and we always wondered how bulletproof the pallets of new flat stacked cardboard boxes were. I always bet they could stop pistol and shotgun rounds but maybe not rifle rounds. Can you please test this?!?!?
I love that Mere is getting more comfortable being on camera and participating on all your channels. You guys are awesome! The intros are always great lol
It is actually. Where the mag feed is they usually put a catch there so covert operations won’t give away any information due to the shell casings. Coups and other situations where you don’t want your presence known
I've had an AR57 for several years. As a shell catcher, you can take a band saw an cut off the feed lips of any Magpul magazine (so it fit's flush with the Lower. Will collect more than 50 shell casings, and great for keeping brass from getting everywhere!
I made a bullet catch using a broken magazine, polymer magazine got left on the range and it got hit when I was mowing. I was able to save the top portion with the locking notch. I just took the feedlips off so it sat in deep enough to lock and had about 3 inches left usable so I got a mesh bag drilled holes through the mag so I could slip a slim bolt through poking out the sides and fasten the mesh bag and the bolts prevebt the bag from slipping off
Love how Kiko been asking for this for 200+ days but didn't bother specifying exactly what they meant in all those comments. Also love that Matt improvised and brought multiple targets. Edit, I forgot to say I also love that Matt risked getting shot by body armor
yeah was wondering that too, like how would shell casing in a canvas sack compare to like a sand bag or some other softer medium like bullets in a woven mesh, since when a bullet was hit it seemed to stop the round pretty easily, but the force caused the resin to just crack and snap off
The answer is no. Lead may be great at stopping zoomies (a nuclear submarine term for radiation), but will do basically nothing to stop bullets in a thin sheet like that. Even mild steel that thin won't stop bullets; lead has no chance. The glass is hard and will deflect bullets from a straight line into some random trajectory, but also is not remotely bulletproof.
I think the problem with the middle straight stacked bullets is they way their stacked, maybe if you stacked the bullets brick bond style then cast them it’d have a stronger bond and greater chance of the bullets encased going snap crackle n pop instead of the resin failing. 🤷🏼♀️ just an idea if you want to test it again.
So. Im glad to have gotten to watch this after doing what happened today. We buried my 16 year old dog we’ve had since i was 8. And i just wanted to say thank you. Because it cheered me up just enough. Thank you Matt for the videos. Thanks for giving me a laugh on a really rough day like this.
So sorry to hear that man losing animals is so hard, especially when you have had them for that long. I was so devastated when I lost my boston, her name was Pebbles and I knew her for half my life on this earth and was so lost without her as she was my best friend. I miss her everyday. Hang in there bud.
That's some tough stuff right there. Coming from a dog man, I empathize completely, that's one of the biggest heartbreaks that life has to offer, in my opinion, losing your best canine friend. Hang in there.
3:50 - I actually really like the look of that w/o a mag, it looks unloaded and safe but is actually loaded.... Now I want to know if you could rip apart and empty an old mag and use it to catch the spent rounds, that would keep them clean for reloading. 😁😍
Bullets might be more effective with some kind of fiber in the resin to act as a binding agent. even just grass or string would help with the shattering
I feel like the use of the resin, brittle as it is, was a detriment to this test. I would love to see this redone in a different medium, like a packed into a vest's plate carrier pouch or something.
Maybe a softer rubbery material that is tough enough to slow the bullet and not get destroyed while the bullets break up the bullet and then wrap it in Kevlar and put it in a plate carrier

I'm surprised how well the resin held up. I'm pretty sure that you set off a round, at about 13:00 when you hit the middle plate with the 5.7 you can see a larger puff of smoke, so it looks like one went off.
@@christiankirby8092 you must be blind, he said the center plate, which had full bullets in casing. He even mentions earlier on, and demonstrates they have gunpowder in them. The first plate though is just the bullets themselves.
I thought this too! When he got close, it looked like that 5.7 hit the top of one .45 bullet, which means it would've delivered a bunch of energy to the primer of the round sitting above it too- so it'd be believable. Couldn't tell if it was cinderblock dust or a round blowing out, but the rest of the cinderblock hits didn't look quite so much as a puff of smoke as this one did.
I have been watching your videos for as long as I can remember and they have brought me joy and laughter in some of my darkest times. As a 17yo guy who has had his parents get divorced twice I really needed a good laugh every once in a while. This channel has also been a huge inspiration to me and it’s because of you that I have gotten in to guns. I am moving from Virginia to Austin in a couple of days with only one half of my family and just wanted to say that the chance to visit BUNKER BRANDING is really the only bright light at the end of my tunnel right now. Thank you to Matt and the whole demoranch crew for keeping me going for the past 5 years. Hope to see you all soon. Also I am really into music and I was curious, how many cds 💿 would it take to stop a bullet?
You guy's Are crazy as hell, I don't know what too except each time I get a new notification from your channel because it's always something a little more crazier. But I'll be honest there always the best videos u guy's put out....so keep on keeping on guy's love them all!!
This is by far one of my most favorite intro skits I've even seen on this channel! I was expecting Mer to come back over and say it was time to pull the plug because she already figured it was a hoax, but I like how it played out much better.
Hey Matt, here's a thought. What about making armor out of ironwood? It probably won't be good for a person, but perhaps it's decent for a vehicle, or some part of your house? Maybe a tactical shield?
Top four hardest words in the world: Australian Buloke - 5,060 IBF. ... Schinopsis brasiliensis - 4,800 IBF. ... Schinopsis balansae - 4,570 IBF. ... Lignum vitae - 4,500 IBF.
You've still got time to prep this idea Matt! Tuned plates so when you shoot them, they form a melody. Twelve days of Christmas.... I'll just leave this one here to simmer.
@@Xplicid I dunno gunpowder is plenty flammable (ask me how I know - doing my part contributing to the reloading supplies shortage by occasionally lighting lines of powder on fire for giggles). I find it strange nothing happened here.
Great video, Matt! I have an interesting idea to strengthen the armor plate of the 3rd level of protection with pieces of tiles like dragon scales. And see if her level of protection will increase due to the quenching of the bullet energy on the armor through the tile. Perhaps it is possible to compare tiles of different thicknesses for walls and floors, since, if I am not mistaken, floor tiles are thicker. The premise of the idea is an artisanal alteration of a non-armored iron plate, which can be found in a variety, and hanging pieces of tiles, which are also not in short supply, for example, in the supposed survival after the "zombie apocalypse". Epoxy resin filling is a strong weighting agent, but, for example, wire woven into a mesh or a ready-made thin iron mesh can become the basis for hanging tiles on an iron plate. Thank you and I apologize for using a translator for this message.
Honestly you should redo this test, but use fiberglass sheets covered in resin to hold the bullets together. Lay two sheets out coated in resin, then place the bullets and place in a bag to vacuum and suck out all the air which will so compress everything tightly together.
Curious to see how well these would perform, how many shots they'll take, if put in plate carriers that keep the pieces together. Might be able to survive a couple more rounds.
the .45 ACP vertical arrangement has, essentially, formed a polylithic strike face. if you backed it up with soft armor, I might trust it. ...you still want to remove the bullets from the casings, though. the chance of a cookoff isn't *ideal.* also wear neck protection.
Mere was contemplating that decision hard. She was ready to let you go. She's definitely done with your shit. All in good fun my friend. You're a lucky man. Ya'll are an awesome couple and I'm happy you two can support each other in all of your endeavors. You''re one of the funniest asshole I've seen. Keep being the badass you are. Stay frosty brother.
I'm so glad to see ur videos I have just gotten surgery Wednesday after I caught on fire and dislocated my shoulder in May and yesterday I flooded my car but ur videos bring me happiness
Well, this explains the lack of reloading supplies.... Also you'd need to hit the primer of a live round with something that has enough energy to pop it, but not so much that it'll go through the cartridge case.
So, theoretically, if you hit a higher caliber primer with a smaller rounds with (idk how to spell it but the fire ones), wouldnt that work? Or am i wrong here
@@kameronmyles2013 if a tracer penetrated a cartridge case, the burning phosphorus might ignite the powder. It might have too much velocity to do it. You'd probably need to hit something like a .50 bmg with a .177 caliber pellet or bb. The cartridge case would burst. The shrapnel from cartridge cases isn't powerful enough to penetrate heavy clothing (fire fighters turnout gear) so still not very dangerous.
Thank you Matt for your Videos! I enjoy them very much! it's endearing to hear you say" I love you "at the end of every episode.. people need to hear that OK maybe I do.. anyway thanks for adding eye candy AKA your lovely wife! I also enjoy off the ranch it just feels like family when I watch.. peace and best wishes to you in your loved ones and thank you for what you do! 🍻
Man I am so glad you made this that’s awesome I don’t think I’ll make a bulletproof plate for my vest out of 45 ACP projectiles but good thought I’m just so glad you’re having so much fun doing it
This was a great video. Keep up the great intro’s and demo’s. Clint looked like Scott from Kentucky Ballistics with that hat and dark mustache. 10/10 on this one.
I’ve been following this channel for a long while now and Of all the people I follow and watch intros for I can’t think of a single TH-camr with better intros then you make 😂 thank you for your creativeness and years of work you’ve given to us all.
I love the look of the AR 5.7 especially with that low profile and how it takes the p90 mags hopefully the mag runs the rounds through it if so then I definitely want to get one lol
2:30 that mid plate full unspent rounds bound in resin, technically you could say it's reactive armor. For the odd chance a perfect hit strikes a primer. So from left to right you've got "bases covered" (1st plate), the "reactive set" (2nd plate), and "just the tip" (3rd plate).
no 3 is probably the best, but ideally you'd just have ammunition arrayed in that way. back it up with some soft armor too ideally speaking you'd have steel pellets like that, instead of bullets, with small wide pellets in the array
These are the videos I can’t get enough of!! The other stuff just makes me feel poor even though I work 60 hours a week 🤣🤣. I bought the world = not interested. I put a .22 in a straw and throw up in the air = omg omg I got see this!!🤣
The company that makes that 5.7 upper should make an AR mag without a follower that can fully seat in the magwell, so you can catch your brass for reloading.
Bro your intros are so on point my dude! That was exactly the reason I follow you. Some shit I would do to my wife 🤣 You deserve the 19 min of my attention.
What an awesome idea! And you guys made one hell of a project out of it! Thanks for taking the time making them bullet vests! I bet that took some work! Thanks again great video and like allways I learned a lot!
AR57s have been around for yonks. Always wondered when you'd get around to trying one.. I've never experienced issues like you did with yours. You can get a catch bag for your brass that fits in the mag well, but I've seen people just using empty mags as brass catchers too. (Gutted mags)
To the guy that kept commenting asking for the bullet vs bullets, thank you sir!! I have always wondered myself if bullets would stop a bullet. Also thank you to Matt for making this video happen! As usual great video!!
The one that just has the bullets would make a spectacular floor for the gun safe, or office. (They all would look awesome as a floor but not worth the risk)
Nice idea)) But epoxy/poly resin needs to be armored with some fibers for any practical use so that it doesn't fall to pieces and fly around when shot at
I can't believe you didn't shoot the whole cartridge ones with incendiary to see if you could ignite something. Or 50 bmg just to watch them shower everywhere. You need to team up with the slow mo guys and do crazy targets like this.
@@shotty2164 it’s not actually that dangerous, a lot of the the time the bullet doesn’t even leave the casing, the casing just pops, and even if the bullet does leave the casing, the energy get dispersed in every direction so it only ends up flying out a couple feet, if that
The issue with this retest is the resin it’s so hard that it’s seems to be more of a is resin bullet proof test. Maybe setting the bullets half way in resin so it holds them in place while the bullets are taking the brunt of the force?
@@limbeboy7 terrible example to draw conclusions from. The rebar in concrete is strengthening the unit as a whole. The bullets aren't strengthening these plates as a whole. They are providing impact resistance from a bullet directly contacting them.

Lol dipping a baked potato into mashed potatoes, then into fries 😂
Nothing wrong with that
Bro your mind is amazing for coming up with this😂😂
@Don't Read My Profile Photo I did
I have been watching your videos for as long as I can remember and they have brought me joy and laughter in some of my darkest times. As a 17yo guy who has had his parents get divorced twice I really needed a good laugh every once in a while. This channel has also been a huge inspiration to me and it’s because of you that I have gotten in to guns. I am moving from Virginia to Austin in a couple of days with only one half of my family and just wanted to say that the chance to visit BUNKER BRANDING is really the only bright light at the end of my tunnel right now.
Thank you to Matt and the whole demoranch crew for keeping me going for the past 5 years. Hope to see you all soon.
Also I am really into music and I was curious, how many cds 💿 would it take to stop a bullet?
You guy's Are crazy as hell, I don't know what too except each time I get a new notification from your channel because it's always something a little more crazier. But I'll be honest there always the best videos u guy's put out....so keep on keeping on guy's love them all!!
This is by far one of my most favorite intro skits I've even seen on this channel! I was expecting Mer to come back over and say it was time to pull the plug because she already figured it was a hoax, but I like how it played out much better.
Congratulations you have been selected amount our shortlisted winner 🎁 contact the number above.....✔️
Hey Matt, here's a thought. What about making armor out of ironwood? It probably won't be good for a person, but perhaps it's decent for a vehicle, or some part of your house? Maybe a tactical shield?

Oh Matt your intros never fail, that was a good one!
You've still got time to prep this idea Matt! Tuned plates so when you shoot them, they form a melody. Twelve days of Christmas....
I'll just leave this one here to simmer.
BRCC has some similar
I'm extremely curious how likely it is for a round to go off when hit by another round (and how that changes if you use incendiaries or tracers?)
Depends if you hit the primer cap, I’d imagine.
@@Xplicid I dunno gunpowder is plenty flammable (ask me how I know - doing my part contributing to the reloading supplies shortage by occasionally lighting lines of powder on fire for giggles). I find it strange nothing happened here.
theres a reason why lever gun ammo is flat nosed )
I think Matt did a video about getting shot in the magazines on the outside of your vest years ago, pretty sure it was him.
@@deathlis gunpowder is flammable but not really impact sensitive. That’s why primers are required.
You should make a big table like that, bullets in resin looks pretty cool.
love the creativity you always put into your intro's!! Glad to see Mere making an appearance on this channel even if it's only in the intro.
Great video, Matt! I have an interesting idea to strengthen the armor plate of the 3rd level of protection with pieces of tiles like dragon scales. And see if her level of protection will increase due to the quenching of the bullet energy on the armor through the tile. Perhaps it is possible to compare tiles of different thicknesses for walls and floors, since, if I am not mistaken, floor tiles are thicker. The premise of the idea is an artisanal alteration of a non-armored iron plate, which can be found in a variety, and hanging pieces of tiles, which are also not in short supply, for example, in the supposed survival after the "zombie apocalypse". Epoxy resin filling is a strong weighting agent, but, for example, wire woven into a mesh or a ready-made thin iron mesh can become the basis for hanging tiles on an iron plate. Thank you and I apologize for using a translator for this message.
Hey Matt, Thanks for the intro! I've been having a bad day and needed a good laugh, thank you!
1:29 I just had sweet tea almost come out of my nose from laughing so Hard! 😂🤣😆
Honestly you should redo this test, but use fiberglass sheets covered in resin to hold the bullets together. Lay two sheets out coated in resin, then place the bullets and place in a bag to vacuum and suck out all the air which will so compress everything tightly together.
Awww man my guy is getting up there in age been watching you since the beginning of my high school years 😂
This makes a lot of sense. After all, you send a maniac to catch a maniac, so surely to stop a bullet you use more bullets.
Finally! This guy gets it
Curious to see how well these would perform, how many shots they'll take, if put in plate carriers that keep the pieces together. Might be able to survive a couple more rounds.
the .45 ACP vertical arrangement has, essentially, formed a polylithic strike face. if you backed it up with soft armor, I might trust it.
...you still want to remove the bullets from the casings, though.
the chance of a cookoff isn't *ideal.*
also
wear neck protection.
@@KoishiVibin selling bulletproof armor made of bullets to the murican army is the most murican thing ever
@@Subreon us Floridians would use it for the ammo and protection against the mosquito

Mere was contemplating that decision hard. She was ready to let you go. She's definitely done with your shit.
All in good fun my friend. You're a lucky man. Ya'll are an awesome couple and I'm happy you two can support each other in all of your endeavors. You''re one of the funniest asshole I've seen. Keep being the badass you are. Stay frosty brother.
I'm so glad to see ur videos I have just gotten surgery Wednesday after I caught on fire and dislocated my shoulder in May and yesterday I flooded my car but ur videos bring me happiness
This is dope 🤘🏻 I love how the “armor plates” turned out!! Looks sweet 😎
Sweet like peanut brittle.

I really wanted to see some bullet on bullet action today, thanks Matt.
Well, this explains the lack of reloading supplies....
Also you'd need to hit the primer of a live round with something that has enough energy to pop it, but not so much that it'll go through the cartridge case.
So, theoretically, if you hit a higher caliber primer with a smaller rounds with (idk how to spell it but the fire ones), wouldnt that work? Or am i wrong here
@@kameronmyles2013 if a tracer penetrated a cartridge case, the burning phosphorus might ignite the powder. It might have too much velocity to do it. You'd probably need to hit something like a .50 bmg with a .177 caliber pellet or bb. The cartridge case would burst. The shrapnel from cartridge cases isn't powerful enough to penetrate heavy clothing (fire fighters turnout gear) so still not very dangerous.
Thank you Matt for your Videos! I enjoy them very much! it's endearing to hear you say" I love you "at the end of every episode.. people need to hear that OK maybe I do.. anyway thanks for adding eye candy AKA your lovely wife! I also enjoy off the ranch it just feels like family when I watch.. peace and best wishes to you in your loved ones and thank you for what you do! 🍻
Man I am so glad you made this that’s awesome I don’t think I’ll make a bulletproof plate for my vest out of 45 ACP projectiles but good thought I’m just so glad you’re having so much fun doing it
One of life’s toughest questions... Finally answered. Also you should have shot plastic jars of bullets not in resin due to the breaking apart.
Or set them in silicone perhaps
Just only mix in half the recommended hardener and let them cure for a week. That makes the resin really tough but also slightly sticky to the touch.
Would be a better substitute however plastic splits !
Bro Matt is winning life with Mere. Certified Legend.
I've been watching for like 2 years and never left a comment but I love your show thank you for the content
That’s pretty cool how the 5.56 went straight through the resin without hitting a single bullet/casing even though they were all jumbled up in there.
This was a great video. Keep up the great intro’s and demo’s. Clint looked like Scott from Kentucky Ballistics with that hat and dark mustache. 10/10 on this one.
Yeah, I was wondering if Scott's dad was filming this one.
New rule for your range: ALWAYS bring a watermelon to shoot when using the range.
I’ve been following this channel for a long while now and Of all the people I follow and watch intros for I can’t think of a single TH-camr with better intros then you make 😂 thank you for your creativeness and years of work you’ve given to us all.
I'm not saying his are better, but Kentucky Ballistics has some hilarious intros too.
I love the look of the AR 5.7 especially with that low profile and how it takes the p90 mags hopefully the mag runs the rounds through it if so then I definitely want to get one lol
2:30 that mid plate full unspent rounds bound in resin, technically you could say it's reactive armor. For the odd chance a perfect hit strikes a primer. So from left to right you've got "bases covered" (1st plate), the "reactive set" (2nd plate), and "just the tip" (3rd plate).
no 3 is probably the best, but ideally you'd just have ammunition arrayed in that way.
back it up with some soft armor too
ideally speaking you'd have steel pellets like that, instead of bullets, with small wide pellets in the array
These are the videos I can’t get enough of!! The other stuff just makes me feel poor even though I work 60 hours a week 🤣🤣. I bought the world = not interested. I put a .22 in a straw and throw up in the air = omg omg I got see this!!🤣
OH that production is amazing like now you got a slowmo cam and everything it’s amazing
The company that makes that 5.7 upper should make an AR mag without a follower that can fully seat in the magwell, so you can catch your brass for reloading.
I *think* they sell little mesh bags that hang from the mag-well for that purpose
The company that made the AR57 upper isn't producing them any longer and only makes specialty holsters now.
Bro your intros are so on point my dude! That was exactly the reason I follow you. Some shit I would do to my wife 🤣 You deserve the 19 min of my attention.
@2:30 You know you’ve made it in life when you can afford to shoot cartridges all willy-nilly!
What an awesome idea! And you guys made one hell of a project out of it! Thanks for taking the time making them bullet vests! I bet that took some work! Thanks again great video and like allways I learned a lot!
AR57s have been around for yonks. Always wondered when you'd get around to trying one.. I've never experienced issues like you did with yours.
You can get a catch bag for your brass that fits in the mag well, but I've seen people just using empty mags as brass catchers too. (Gutted mags)
Hm never knew that, they are definitely pretty cool. Would be a bit cooler with a shorter barrel tho
The Canik Rival is so under rated, i love that pistol! especially for the price ♥

hey matt i been watching your videos for like 7years and i enjoy every one keep it up!!!
Same
To the guy that kept commenting asking for the bullet vs bullets, thank you sir!! I have always wondered myself if bullets would stop a bullet. Also thank you to Matt for making this video happen! As usual great video!!
Man i bet your bro is looking down laughing 🤗 love the introductions they are always funny
The one that just has the bullets would make a spectacular floor for the gun safe, or office. (They all would look awesome as a floor but not worth the risk)
Could use dummy rounds or powderless bullets to still have the visual effect
On no my 45 acp floor is exploding
@@carsonchavis7821 hence why i specified the one with just the bullets and didn't suggest complete rounds
One has to wonder how many times during a day Mere has to think/ say "But why?". Great video as always
😂There should be a warning label for those watching this at work.. I could not hold back my laughter from that intro 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
i dont even wanna think about how much those plates cost in ammo prices.
Nice idea)) But epoxy/poly resin needs to be armored with some fibers for any practical use so that it doesn't fall to pieces and fly around when shot at

Always a good day when Matt uploads.
@ancient people 🅥 reported
Don't start that shit here
the way the chair moved at 1:24 is hilarious
"How dangerous do you want this video to be?"
Matt: "Yes..."
I can't believe you didn't shoot the whole cartridge ones with incendiary to see if you could ignite something. Or 50 bmg just to watch them shower everywhere.
You need to team up with the slow mo guys and do crazy targets like this.
There is the danger of a bullet coming back towards him or someone else
Probably not the safest thing to do tho…
@@shotty2164 it’s not actually that dangerous, a lot of the the time the bullet doesn’t even leave the casing, the casing just pops, and even if the bullet does leave the casing, the energy get dispersed in every direction so it only ends up flying out a couple feet, if that
And excite the thought of Darwin award? I . Think . NOT
Man what a bunch of wusses in the replies. It's like yall haven't watched this channel before.
The issue with this retest is the resin it’s so hard that it’s seems to be more of a is resin bullet proof test.
Maybe setting the bullets half way in resin so it holds them in place while the bullets are taking the brunt of the force?
I'd definitely like to watch a retest where they're potted in silicone sealant instead of epoxy, good idea
Glue them to some flexible thick cloth type material. Make a real vest.
That's not how energy transfer works. The bullets are what's giving it its strength. Think a concrete building with steel rods in them
@@limbeboy7 terrible example to draw conclusions from. The rebar in concrete is strengthening the unit as a whole. The bullets aren't strengthening these plates as a whole. They are providing impact resistance from a bullet directly contacting them.
That are in the beginning is just brilliant 😂😂😂😂 the whole episode was just something
