Pocket Squares: amzn.to/2UfsKtL
▶ Why Indochino Suits? (50% off Premium Suits + free shipping) [legaleagle.link/indochino]: Off-the-rack suits NEVER fit right. Indochino makes fully custom suits that fit perfectly using any material I want, with all of the options I want. And they cost 1/3rd of what normal suits costs. I’ve purchased them with my own money for years, so I’m thrilled they are now a sponsor.
▶ Why Ties from TheTieBar? (Free shipping on orders over $50) [fave.co/2ImLY9I]: Normal ties are too fat. Skinny ties are too skinny. So these days I only wear ties that are exactly 2.5” wide. They are fashionable without being hipster. You see them in all of my videos. TieBar ties are perfect, come in every color I want, and never cost more than $19.
▶ Why these Tie Clips? [amzn.to/2WIQ6EE]: It’s really hard to find affordable tie clips that are the right size (1.5”), look good, and are great quality. These tie bars are all three. Plus the 3-pack gives a variety of styles. They pair perfectly with 2.5” ties from TheTieBar (above).
▶ Why these Pocket Squares? [amzn.to/2UfsKtL]: I like my pocket squares perfectly, well, square. Like straight-out-of-Mad-Men square. The only way to do that is with a stiffer material that keeps its shape. I’ve exhaustively tried dozens of pocket squares, and these are by far the best. It’s how I get the perfectly flat pocket square you see in my videos.

I’m sorry, sir, but I am the best bird lawyer in the world.
I get asked a lot about whether being a practicing attorney is like being a lawyer on TV. I love watching legal movies and courtroom dramas. It's one of the reasons I decided to become a lawyer. But sometimes they make me want to pull my hair out because they are ridiculous. Today I'm taking a break from teaching law students how to crush law school to take on lawyers in the movies and on TV. While all legal movies and shows take dramatic license to make things more interesting (nobody wants to see hundreds of hours of brief writing), many of them have a grain of truth.

Where are these fake hands I keep seeing mentioned in this episode? I only see Uncle Jack's big, masculine hands. Hands that tell a story of greatness. Hands perfect for wrestling with nephews.
Ucann QuoteMe That last line made me spit o.j. on my phone screen. Well done!
@@seamusmchooligan9212 No it didn't. You did that on purpose, for clout.
This post pleases Kek. His blessings be upon you.
I'm going to stop you there, are you just going to sit there and talk about your hands for a while?
i guess you didn't look
Objection: doesn't the name Legal Eagle mislead the jury into believing that you are, in fact, familiar with bird law and the ins and outs thereof
It implies that instead of experiencing the lifestyle of an eagle, he in fact is an eagle
Intervention!
He has a background in Bird Law! Harvey Birdman!
Your honor, in light of this recently discovery I would ask for a mistrial. If not then I would implore you to fire yourself because you are unable to be unbiased.
thats a very niche part of bird law, I think you'd need to demonstrate a more in depth knowledge of bird law to be able to claim familiarity with it.
Objection: The fact that the writers got EVERYTHING wrong suggests they had to know enough to know what was correct.
Kinda right. Our teacher once gave us an MCQ test in which you had to answer every, every question wrong and the winner would get an iPAD. This was one of those days in which these devices were newly introduced and were all the rage. Dumb as I was, I sadly still didn't pass the test. :P
Yeah its pretty clear the whole point of this episode was to lampoon how ridiculous courtroom dramas are and they did it perfectly.
Absolutely, I remember a saying that it's nearly impossible for a student to get all wrong answers on a true/false test, and if someone achieves it, it's more likely that they knew all the answers and marked the wrong ones by choice than pure chance.
Like one old strip of Beetle Bailey where sarge is at first proud of him finally devoting himself to study the military regiment, Bailey answers he needs to know the rules to better know how to skirt\break them
@@0Onyx13 is that a real saying or have you mixed it up with a plot point from into the spiderverse :P
It's so interesting watching a non-Sunny watcher getting dropped in after a decade of running gags have been established
Seeing him get offended is hilarious u can tell hes an uptight ass

@@jordanflores5687 What do you think?
He's a total Jabroni.
This guy clearly went to Harvard, but doesn't know a thing about Bird Law.
Bird Law in this country is not governed by reason
You don't learn about bird law in Harvard. It's a terrible law school.
Perhaps he has the brains of a donkey?
adrock1011 And we can't have donkeys in court.
i know. Its disgraceful
Objection: Claiming those are fake hands is speculation. Jack has big hands, they are definitely real hands
His hands tell a story...of greatness.
Thank you!
He has man hands, not baby hands
And the man had to go through the horror of his hand spontaneously coming off. We gotta cut him a break.
NOBODY LOOK, NOBODY LOOK
Between Maureen being a cat, the fake hands, bird law and so much more, this would be a WILD and confusing episode for someone unfamiliar who hasn't seen more episodes of Always Sunny.
And then we go "JUDGE THIS BASED ON COMMON SENSE AND LAW, DO IT"
Even for someone who had. Still hate this episode.
I feel like this guy literally never heard of this show before this segment

Just made a similar comment. The best thing is his utter confusion
I just hope we get a "hero, or hate crime?" verdict lol
@@M0053yfate that was one of the best episodes 😂😂
He missed all the inside jokes and probably thought it was just weird and random
WILL SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THE HANDS
Never heard of bird law? Yeah this dude definitely aint a real lawyer. Bird law is the first thing you learn in law school, everyone knows that
Objection, the topic is not Bird Law, but Bird Lore.
In most countries, bird law is taught at bird law school, which is separate from normal law school.
Don't you dare besmirch his honor, lest you find yourself in a duel. That's just my legal advice for you.
Don't you dare besmirch his honor, lest you find yourself in a duel. That's just my legal advice for you.
And here I thought it was Tree law...
I don't trust this lawyer, how big are his hands?
They look considerable, but I don't buy it. I think he had someone lay their hands on top of his for this video.
They seem the same size as mine.
And more important, do his hands tell a story?
LMFAO! The best part is when Uncle Jack throws his hand across the room and runs away screaming "NOBODY LOOK, NOBODY LOOK!!" Like nobody saw it
On the contrary. His hands are big, I think we should settle.
He cut out the best part, where Uncle Jack points his finger and his fake hand comes flying off, as he’s screaming, “nobody look, nobody look, nobody look!” 😂🤣🤣
I know! I was waiting for that 😂
Hey I thought Uncle Jack requested a motion to strike the fake hands comment from the record!
I would 100% allow this entire case to go through to the end. It's too important for the advancements of bird law
I love hearing a real lawyer actually say “bird law” it means we won on some small level 😂
never been more proud of that becuz salmonella
Bird Law belongs to Charlie Kelly 😅
It's only a matter of time before bird law is on the Bar Exam
If Legal Eagle hasn't done it before, he should do the World Series Defense episode from Always Sunny.
"We"...? You mean the birds? 🤣
Yeah but let's say you and Charlie Kelley go toe to toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor.
Clearly you know nothing about the law and have a tenuous grasp on the English language in genaral
Uh, Fillibuster.
@@DojoTheJo he's pleading the fifth
Clearly this man is also versed in bird law, or why else would he be called legal eagle. I rest my case.
@@heeres_johnnyy_2179 I've never cringed so hard before until I read your comment, holy shit.
I think the most realistic part of the episode is the judge acknowledging how ridiculous and how much of a waste of time that all was
Actually, the most realistic part to me was them bringing drugs into court. Where I live at least, you almost never get searched. Even if you set off the metal detector, they just make you take your belt off. As long as you don't set it off a second time, they assume you've got nothing bad on you. So I call BS on him saying you're "very likely to get searched."
I just absolutely love the fact Guillermo Del Toro plays Papi McPoyle
Holy shit, he actually does!
This lawyer clearly doesn't drink any fight milk, he's not fighting like a crow, he's fighting like bastard man.
He needs Riot Juice
Grease Fire aye The Siamese Dream pic
Very nice display picture. One of the best albums ever.
Love Gestapo Agreed, incredibly happy that they're going to release a new album
Grease Fire Hell Yeah
Why does he keep saying Charlie's uncle is wearing fake hands? Clearly he just has large manly hands
IKR?! I wish he would put his hands over mine so it would look bigger
Slander!
Can i....see those hands again? Just for a quick....
Very masculine indeed.
Henry Asselin "my hands tell a story"
You absolutely right, never bring drugs into court. If you have to have drugs in court you should take all the drugs before entering. This way while your waiting on your trial it should give them all time to kick in and should be going strong by the time your case comes up.
🤣🤣 I was gonna say "no shit Sherlock", but you had me in the first half
Jack's self conscious about having small hands as a running joke and since the beginning of the series Charlie has wanted to be a lawyer and says he is versed in birdlaw 😂
Lol when they took the picture together and Jack put his hands beneath the other lawyers hands pretending they were his.😂 comedic golds.
This man, this charlatan pretends to be an expert yet knows nothing, NOTHING about Bird Law. How dare he comment on what is the greatest example of Bird Lawyering ever recorded. Thumbs down!
@The Coward Liberius Hearsay! Overuled!
Yeah this legal, "eagle", displays many characteristics of a buttlicker.
He wasn't prepared for the nonsense he was about to view lol.
And he dove straight into the deep end.
yea but long time viewers just kinda get used to the madness he was just like wtf is going on
Yeah didn’t even start from season 1 just straight into the absurd ness of the later seasons! Lmao!
"This is getting weird"
Marcus Middleton why explain them?! Don’t you know? His hands...tell a story....
I want legal eagle to watch more of the show, so he can understand everything the gang has put this lawyer through. Only then will his demeanor and attitude make sense. Over the course of the show they have pushed this poor guy so far that he starts taking cases for free as long as those cases are against the gang.
I don't want to watch this humorless Captain Obvious trudge his way through any more Sunny episodes while telling us that **news flash** the trial scenes aren't realistic and don't comply with legal proceedings. Thanks guy, we had no idea! 😮
Comedy is clearly wasted on this jabroni.
@@JakeKoenig you willingly clicked on this video, we would be more better without you.
How are so many people in the comments mad at the commentator? Lol. This is not a TV show reaction channel. It is obvious that the only reason any Sunny episodes are being reacted to is because it relates to his field. No, he's not going to get the inside jokes lol. My god.
Bird law comes in through out the show. The first time bird law is mentioned is in the mortgage crises episode. It opens with Charlie and Dennis arguing about whether or not you can keep a hummingbird as a pet
Where are we at on gulls...?
Of course the REAL issue is that you can't examine 2 witnesses at the same time, not that Charlie asked an ornithologist to speak bird parseltongue
To be fair not the dumbest/fake professional witness testimony that has been accepted in an American court.
@@souler__ no it specifically only allows you to communicate with serpents...
@@souler__ um no you're wrong. You should Google before making such dumb comments.

I don't see any fake hands in this video. Just a bunch of people with real, very normal-sized hands.

I personally love the scene at the end where after the judge kicks them out he reads his next case and they turn around and take their seats again.

This is the last video of him that I'll ever watch.
He's kind of a humorless dipshit, if we're being honest. So jot THAT down.
I AM UNTETHERED AND MY RAGE KNOWS NO BOUNDS
A big part of Always Sunny's comedic formula involves an ever growing discography of recurring in-jokes with with audience. The bird law gag goes back to an earlier season and was fairly well established by this point. The hands gag is based on the character having small hands and being hyper sensitive about it. I love this absurd show to death.
Like Arrested Development in many ways. My brother would get blitzed to watch AD, and be unamused when he couldn't remember even the most basic of references.
Not everything is better enjoyed high lmao
@Kyle Harrison, Good call. AD broke the mold. The 1st 3 seasons are pure gold. Before bird law there was "bob loblaw's law blog".
The recurring joke/gag theme really gets me to love shows like Sunny. Same thing happened when I watched Trailer Park Boys!
@@dynamichunter843 BOTTLE KIDS!
@@dynamichunter843 TPB was, just like Always Sunny, a beautiful constant impending trainwreck.
"It's all ridiculous, it doesn't seem relevant at all and it's a 100% improper" That pretty much sums up "It's always sunny" quite perfectly

Delightfully Improper.

I love that the Legal Eagle waves his hands around when he talks. I also love that he gave the trail an "F" even though he reached the same conclusion as the judge.
LegalEagle: For portrayal of civil law I give this a F
Me: For portrayal of bird 🐦 law I give this an A+
OBJECTION: You should have saved this for an April Fool's Day video and talked about how right Charlie is on bird law. A wasted opportunity if you ask me.
I think he wanted people to stop with the bird law stuff
Havery Birdman for april fools
@Peteto Chibs He can revisit it on April Fool's and withdraw his present statements. Talk about the way Charlie revolutionized argument and threw the judge for a loop, and that having his case thrown out was a clear act of discrimination against the divine practitioners of bird law
@@MikeAsbestos If so, that backfired
Charlie Kelly doesn't have a law degree mainly because he can't read. But he is however the best god damn bird lawyer in the world.
He'll adapt.
@@sandwedge The warthog will take him under his wing and teach him to swim with the sharks.
"I don't think Charlie Kelly has passed the bar" Joke's on you he can't even read! I love this by the way.
Don't know which is more impressive: that this guy didn't continue riding the wave of one of his most highly viewed episodes, or, that It's Always Sunny scared this guy from ever touching it again with a 10ft pole.
Which sucks, world series defense would have been AMAZING to watch.
Not necessarily, he did two other episodes
wrong, he did Dennis Reynolds: The Cereal Defense and recently, Hero or hate crime?
@AlastorCorvus you notice how my comment is from 2 years ago?
Hope you enjoyed your momentary "well actually" internet boner.

Watching someone experience Always Sunny for the first time by jumping right to an episode in season 11 and trying to make sense of it is a riot. Rule #1 is to never, ever, try to make sense of any of it.
Hal Wakka I’m not even sure he realized that this was a comedy
You can make sense of the tiny hands if you’ve seen it before.
@@zayaplaya1 LOL he definitely didnt
Lol you are so right.
Start from season one my friend. You will not be disappointed.
As a law enforcement official who is in court frequently and with Sunny being my favorite show of all time, I am saddened that I just discovered this channel. Good work council! And bird law is real 😊
This episode deserves an A, cause while none of what they were doing was realistic or allowed, at the end of the episode the judge throws the case out because of what they were doing and how unrealistic that it was
Season 12 episode 6. "Hero or hate crime" awesome episode about lottery ticket ownership with an arbitrator. Take a look
That's my absolute favorite episode
DO IT!!!!
Agreed. Fantastic episode.
Definitely a great episode..My personal favorite may be The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore. Dee getting her hair ripped out and Dennis puking on the ride...then smoking angel dust. The boardwalk is definitely not a magical place haha
@@marcsorensen1184 not to mention the ever important rum ham
"There are a lot of problems here..." is a good summary of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
"What is going on here?"
@@westberryjim Let's just move past it
Ok, so about bird law. I once had an issue where birds made a nest in my chimney. Birds were flying into my house, wrecking havoc.
The first company I called to take care of the situation basically said " Nothing we can do, it's bird law, we can't remove them."
So basically they told me that the birds now owned my house.
I called another guy and got it taken care of pronto, but I'll never forget the first person telling me that basically bird law meant the nest in my chimney was illegal to disrupt, and that the birds now owned my property. Lol.
Objection!! The judge, eventually, had the correct reaction to a completely invalid case and argument. Since the case was thrown out, it was, it seems to me, the only legal action that actually happened in this case. Ergo, all legal actions taken in this episode were done correctly, there were no errors in legal procedure and this episode should have gotten an A.
Objection: ‘Bird Law’ was first referenced in ‘The Gang Exploits the Mortgage Crisis’, season 5.
Filibuster ?
Request for motion to sustain the objection of the filibuster in question by way of people versus parakeet.
Bird Law was a running joke that blew up into a full blow episode. It didn't originate in this episode. What makes it really funny is watching the evolution of the joke.
The whole episode calls back to the two part wedding episode and Jacks’ long running hand insecurities.
Eric Staples that’s what makes this show so great is that there’s so many running jokes, if you haven’t watched it from the start it won’t be as enjoyable. He said he was confused at multiple points whereas I found it hilarious
Imagine if they let LegalEagle guest star as himself to challenge Charlie on Bird Law
I shan’t mince words Legal Eagle, you have besmirched this show and I demand satisfaction...
I think this lawyer has a case, guys. I mean, his hands are very big and imposing.
His big, strong hands. Hands that tell the story of a man...
I'm intimidated by him
Great now I'm looking at his hands now! So large!
Objection: this mans hands are far too small he couldn't know anything about the law
You know what they say about men with tiny hands. Horrible Lawyers.
God I love that we're discussing bird law right now. What a time to be alive! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think the context is that the lawyer going against them in this episode used to be a solid sane lawyer who has turned into an incompetent crazy person after being exposed them long enough
OBJECTION! Those are his real, large, and massive hands. He isn't compensating or wearing anything to make his hands appear larger than normal.
NOBODY LOOK! NOBODY LOOK!
OBJECTION!!! Bird law did not originate in this episode, it had been talked about by Charlie for many years prior to this episode. The episode in question, "McPoyle vs. Ponderosa: The Trial of the Century ", was the culmination of a long running joke with roots going all the way back to October 18, 2007 when Charlie Kelly first began his law practice in the episode "Mac is a Serial Killer" and as early as September 17, 2009 in the episode "The Gang Exploits the Mortgage Crisis" Charlie Kelly Esq. revealed that he had found his niche in the legal community and had begun to specialize in the area of Bird Law.
Jack Bonar Sustained! Charlie Kelly has mentioned his knowledge of Bird Law repeatedly previous to this episode. FIGHT MILK CAWW
Great research!
Well done
This episode was great, but it's built on so many references and callbacks that you can't only watch this one in a bubble
This is why sunny is so great. They take a small joke or personality trait and build on it in a hilarious way. Like maureen being a cat more, Charley's uncles insecurity with his hands etc, all mentioned before but much more subtly.
Told my buddies about your channel, one of my friends was like "DoEs He HaVe A VidEo AbouT BirD Law?" lol YEP!
Objection, the giant hands stems from a joke in an earlier episode where Jack (the lawyer) is embarrassed of his small hands. Also, this is not technically the first instance of bird law. Charlie brings it up in previous dealings with the plaintiffs lawyer.
I'm glad that your biggest problem with trying to get evidence from a bird is that there's already one witness on the stand and you can't examine two witnesses at the same time. That was my biggest problem with it, too.
The next scene is wonderful too. Where the penn professor says he can't speak with birds and Charlie feels his is misled.
My same thought!
He's referring to the ornithologist, not the bird. Charlie is questioning the ornithologist while he is neither on the stand nor under oath, which is improper. In order for the ornithologist to provide testimony, he would have to be called as a witness.
The ornithologist was functioning as a translator, not a witness. I think he would have to,be considered a witness while stating his background though.
Well, also birds can't testify in court (or out of court either, because well, they're birds).
This guy obviously doesn’t understand a thing about birdlaw
Or Sunny
I absolutely love that thr issue with Charlie asking the professor to question the bird was that he was technically questioning a second witness and didn't go through the proper process

Extra bonus points because he's wearing a woman's suit jacket like Michael Scott.
@@Juggalotus253 that's funny cause I feel like he has a bit a jim and the lawyer from the show mixed in his looks. And you bring michael Scott's women suit into this lol
Fun fact: Rob McElhenney who plays Ronald "Mac" Mcdonald appeared on Law & Order in the episode "Thrill" in 1997, where he plays the character "Joey Timon". A character that testifies against his friend Dale "Tagger" Kershaw. Further strengthening the claim that Ronnie is in fact, a rat.
Real lawyer? Perhaps. As for my case, I'll take my chances with the best goddamn bird lawyer in the world.
"What does this have to do with anything" is essentially the whole theme of the show. 🤣
Nevertheless, Charlie Day is still the best goddamn bird lawyer who has ever lived.
SUSTAINED
Clearly u haven't heard of the genius Harvey Birdman.
Objection: If you were better read on the nuances of bird law, this would of received a much higher grade.
As a big fan of both your channel and it's always sunny - these have all been super fun episodes.
Objection 4:52. Charlie never said he is a lawyer he said he is the 'co-counsel' and has 'a background in bird law'.
What a crazy episode for someone who has never watched Always Sunny to watch. lmao
@@KathyAAllen what are you even trying to say right now
I'm not sure if they're calling the video dumb, or the people commenting? Either way, I disagree.
This particular ep of Always Sunny is just SO full of long-running gags (for example Bird Law does NOT originate from this ep) that I couldn't imagine watching it without any context.
Fancy seeing you here...
@@SarahHanna17 , +1 to this, basically every single joke in this episode from the bird law, to the cat lady, to Charlie thinking hes a lawyer, and even the guys big fake hands, are all long running jokes, so im guessing this episode pretty much makes no sense outside of the context lol.
That’s what I was gonna say I was just like ...wow he must be soooo confused
>Me, most of the time watching LegalEagle. "This is interesting and fascinating information about a field I am curious about."
>Me, watching LegalEagle watching Always Sunny: "His obvious suffering amuses me."
theres so much in this episode that references past episodes and inside jokes it must be so confusing for this to be the first episode somebody sees
Bird law is from an older episode where Charlie is making some kind of argument that it is illegal to have a certain bird as a pet (I don't remember the bird) and said something about how Mac or Dennis don't know anything about bird law. I think in this same episode they encounter a lawyer later that Charlie tries to paint himself as an expert on bird law, and of course the lawyer calls him out on it. He then kicks his way through a busted up door to escape. It became a running gag after that.
OBJECTION- you're just jealous of the big hands
I second this
They would love that they got an F. The joke that ties the episode together is people who only know law from TV serials decide they can be lawyers. Like most episodes of the show, they are subverting and satirizing various television tropes. That it gets everything wrong was truly their goal.

Im positive that "bird law" actually began at an episode in season 3 or 4... this episode is just when they took the "bird law" into a full episode of him in court trying to it. But he had been claiming to be an expert in bird law for years at this point😂
It's fun to see somebody who has never watched Always Sunny watch an episode and try to make sense of it!
GobiLux it sounds like he thinks this is a show about a bird lawyer
It's frustrating to me, because Sunny is such a developed show. (Like; not knowing what's with the fake hands.)
It was less entertaining than expected.
There is no chance of making sense of always sunny.
@@redrob6026 It makes perfect sense if you've watched the whole series. Fantastic piece of art.
Objection: Final grade should be a "C-" as the judge DID throw the case out, although not as soon as he should have done.
Then I want my C- for writing "A is clearly crazy and gets nothing" on my last law exam after reading the facts of the case :)
I was right, yet I got an F...
Not only was this entertaining, I actually learned stuff. Well done!
I went through the court system a few times as a Young Man. Just make sure your lawyer holds the drugs they never searched lawyers. Those 10-minute recesses will get you through a long day
Objection! Legal Eagle did not go through Discovery (previous episodes, episodes after this one) before proceeding to watch this video, therefore he has no relevant information to dispute any of the claims and results of this episode. Sandbagged himself.
Oooooh! Bombshell!
KABOOM!!! 💥
What's with the video of Sweet Dee and the snake?
Best comment.
@@SharpusAurelius lol abslolutely
nice
Haha bird!
that gangly un-coordinated bird
Love your perspective and that you can laugh at it while taking a serious view of the issues! Keep it up :)
A lawyer getting irritated over and over makes this episode even better. No objection. Great job!
Am I the only one who had a huge cartoonish grin on their face when they saw he was covering one of the funniest episodes of "Its always sunny"? lol
*Blackprince*
Watching a lawyer trying to make sense of *It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia?* Priceless.
@@kevinjohnson1139 it really is i couldn't stop laughing.
When I saw the title and throughout the entire video :D Also felt nice to wash away some of the stink of the last season.
Blackprince I TOTALLY SUGGESTED IT YAY
After 30 seconds i was like "This ain't going to be graded anywhere beyond an F..." :D
He's got beautiful hands though, i think we should settle...
You totally besmirched him and he demands satisfaction.
@Kyle Blank 🙊
at least it wasn’t in front of a jury of his own peers
This is a youtube video that was needed but I never knew I needed thank you lol
I loved this omg 😂 ik nothing about legal stuff but watching a normal person see a Sunny Episode just makes my day 💀 makes it even funnier tbh
This basically seems like an actual judge was called to the show, not informed of anything, and that those were his actual reactions.
Reginald VelJohnson is very much an actor
Muppet Overlord that was Reginald VelJohnson? I didn’t even recognize him
Goah Way I know who he is, I just didn’t recognize him as the judge
Except that’s Daddy Winslow so...
That's Sgt. Al Powell.
Bird law originated in “The Gang Exploits The Mortgage Crisis” episode.
I love how the only accurate part of this episode was the wood panels of the courtroom to make it look right 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bro! I just asked for this, little did I know they already made a video on it ! Let's gooo!
