Loved it!
I subscribed based off the title of this video then enjoyed it so much I'm glad I did :)
that video is cool. :0
more acid minus the podcast
“These games feel made up… well I guess they all are”
My favourite line from this video
The thing about acid is you say the thing about acid
I completely related with that LOL
Wowwww I read this at the same time he said it 😂😂😂
I got an ad right when the music kicked in that had the exact same chord playing.@@CrissRoe
this feels like a documentary that keeps forgetting what its about. fantastic video
That’s exactly what a trip can sometimes feel like😂😂
I love the is comment!!! 😂
Have you seen “How to with John Wilson”? Because you just described that show
That’s acid.
Cid is one of my fav things to do and this video encapsulates everything so well, even down to the cinematic feel, making every moment feeling major and interesting.
I'm the tuba player in this video, one of my students in my class told me they saw me in this lol
You guys were super nice when we chatted at the escalators
hell yeah hey Stephen!! so great to meet you man!
Thank you
I was very much hoping there would be a scene where they listened to you play

i used to be in love with someone who’d trip on acid pretty often. i’m sober but we’d often go for walks together and watching this video was the exact feeling i had being around him. it was beautiful and sweet and funny and a little lonely and nonsensical and we don’t talk anymore but i remember those walks fondly

Tripping and walking with my best friend made me who I am today.
I wish I had a friend to walk with me while I trip and ramble
Long hair guy has the most purest smile on the entire time and I am here for it!!
that's emil! you're so right he's awesome
You got all the classic acid lines in this video. "We should hide over here for a minute" - "Maybe we should avoid mirrors for the rest of the day" - absolutely amazing
My fav is 2:32 “these games feel made up”
"His face was all... What I'm trying to say is I think the acid is kicking in."
that lizard wizard game tho @@garrettcurry338
“It was like he was performatively washing his hands”
“Whoa dude it’s the future out here”- my friend on acid when we went inside while it was 80 degrees and sunny and came back outside and there was a foot of snow on the ground
Ben is UNHINGED, just following a dude into the bathroom to make a joke
And right after telling the story of his dad following a dude in the neighborhood too!
@@johanyousef1951cosmic synchromysticism
Acid will do that lol.
Filming in a bathroom and adding it to a YT video is unhinged.
@@UnconventionalMarketingOh it sure will, lmao I know from experience. This can completely rewire your brain and change your perception of reality for awhile especially if you took a lot at once. Can even go into a psychosis if you aren't careful best to have your closest best friend or someone you trust with you to help even. You migbt feel like you broke through the matrix and are on top of the world at the time of plateau of your trip and that in of itself can be bad depending on what that perception change causes you to act in bad ways like not being afraid of death which isn't necessarily great. I heard it was one drug they tested in the army or military or whatever years ago and JESUS talk about a bad trip being at war tripping nuts 😂
This cameraman is improvising some really beautiful cinematography
i was thinking the same thing really impressive to see such great composition in a vlog he really has a great eye for that stuff to make a video of two guys walking around so cinematic
@@4-U-CITYGIRL exactly! and also camera movements, such as when they're looking at the lights and he slowly backs away... it just creates a beautifully framed moment. he really does have an eye for it
Ive done this a few times, but now watching someone do it, I realize the amazing part about it.. You are both just like 2 curious little children enjoying life to the fullest, laughing and taking in all the senses.What an incredible journey and always hold on to your youth.
ASKING IF BEN HAD ROOM FOR TWO ON THE URINAL WAS CRAZY LMAOOO
In a crowded bathroom too lmao
3:12
it was so wild at first i thought It was edited or something @@blingmoney
they will never escape the gay allegations when they act like this in public
And to film in a men's room 🤣. Incredible stuff
walking out of the Cheesecake Factory past that big line saying "man i cant believe they ran out of cheesecake" is the funniest thing lmaooo
😂😂😂
I missed that part timestamp?
@@wyleFTW 21:06
@@curlzncrush lol!
It has really inspired me to pull this at every line I ever pass for the rest of my life.
I one time back in the day was on acid walking through campus and ran into my academic advisor. He stopped and we talked for like 20 minutes. It was monumental the mental strength it took to keep it together. As soon as he turned around to leave, I burst out laughing out of just pure exhilaration that I had acted normal. He turned around immediately and looked straight at me confused. 20 minutes of cool and I blew it at the finish line. I laughed out loud when Ben and Emil laughed maniacally after speaking with the fans.
10:12 "What do you call a cow with no legs"
"Ground beef"
"Fuck you"
Along with the woman in the background looking at them all confused is absolutely perfect. 😂
I laughed so hard at this part.
13:43 The meaningless point at the dog, just for that moment to be forgotten feels intellectually provocative somehow
I am 67yo and watching you two idiots walk around on acid was the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages .. I am wheezing from laughter. I remember how it feels on acid so yes damn funny.
🫡❤️🤝
Not even 2 minutes in, whoever directed the shots and filmed,,, props to you. Beautiful angles.

"Imagine this place caught fire!?...everything burning...all of it." I laughed way too hard at this. Also, I love how they got distracted so much, that no actual shopping ever took place.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
lemme suggest a mycologist whose trip will blow your mind, they have a lot of psychedelic products (LSD,MDMA,DMT,Edible mushroom), their products is a top notch.

They can be good for someone, but it can also mess up your head real good. A guy in my town stabbed one of his friends in the arm, then he stabbed himself in the stomach six times. They were all on shrooms.
I tend to stay away from the stuff, even though I never had a bad trip, just because of stories like that.
This confirms my theory that Ben has never felt anxiety before
until he looked in that mirror lmao

This is a good watch, cinematic, compelling, riveting.
BROCK!!!!!!
BROCK

I'did point you to this specialist they got Dmt, Shrooms, Chocolate Bars Lsd, MDMA, Moon Rock, Edibles alongside other Psychedelicz deliveries are worldwide discreetly??
They operate on Telegrams and Instagrams with the below handle?
PHARMSTAIN?
This is a classic black cat/golden retriever friendship
Emil's sensitivity to smells and Ben's proclivity for restrooms is very telling about their friendship.
The cinematography goes SO HARD, these shots and angles are gorgeous, the work put in to getting them and making them so interesting is amazing. 💀
YO, shout out to dillon for this camera work, directing and editing!!!
And the sound design whips!!!!
For real pure talent!!!

I'm only halfway through this video and I'm amazed at how glued I am to the screen. The cinematography and story telling are amazing. I wish more TV shows could be this good!
Wow, thank you!
"Things don't always turn out the way you want them to... It sure is pretty."
I love this.
This is like Before Sunrise but instead of two strangers falling in love it’s two friends on acid vibing out
lolllllll
lmfao
"I don't know how to stand" is such an acid thing to say 🤣
Literally every time, around 19:30 I start to cry, with an emotion I can’t control or explain but it’s on the happy and enjoyable side of things, just deeper.
we need more moments like this in this day and age. no worry or anxieties. they are just appreciating the moments and the beauty life has to offer when we slow down a bit. even something as simple as the lights in the city goes unnoticed when we are so busy
Seeing that xmas tree topple is such a relatable trip vibe. Only happened as you two were there to witness it.
the universe winking
I love how you two just talk to every stranger you encounter. What a lovely way to live
Acid'll do that. Everyone's just trying to get by
@@theendoftheworld9921Never experienced that on acid, usually the opposite
@@rorybessell8280damn I always did this and I’ve almost always done jellies which hit way stronger. If you’re a happy social person this is exactly what it’s like (I work with tons of people daily so I have to be like that) lol
I'm like this sober and when I trip 😂
@@rorybessell8280acid does it for me too, I feel crippling social anxiety but on acid I just talk to everyone like it's nothing, the words just flow like I am a normal person. It's nice but also kinda sad cause it makes me feel like real life should be like when I'm on acid and I'm just damaged in some way
This might be the best piece of content I've seen on this god forsaken website in a decade
Amen
You obviously haven't seen Bobby Fingers' Bezos Boat build video then. In a way it's very different to this but in other ways it's quite similar
I don't like that I agree with this, because it means I've been around for a while lol.
That friendship closeness and bond on acid is so beautiful to feel and amazing to watch in third person. Felt every moment of this adventure and thank you all for allowing us to experience it with you, and capturing it so eloquently
Part at 18:20 was beautiful. This whole video reminds me of when I was 14-17, just have moved recently to a foreign country which I didn't speak the language in. Met my best friend at the time and my family situation was a big mess plus I was failing school because of the language barrier, I was spending a lot of my time with him. We'd walk around random cities, go into random high school parties and poke fun at people who were absorbed in life, smoke weed and laugh in the grocery stores at the food. We'd bike for 30 miles, climb abandoned buildings, listen to music, dance on top of the city view and chase girls.
I eventually moved back, he got way into alcohol and harder drugs and I slowly realized he wasn't that good of a friend that I thought he was. People tried telling me, but I couldn't see it.
“lamb racks, leg of lamb” “boy they thought of everything didn’t they” one of many insane one liners in this beautiful piece of art
I like how Emil confused lambs with cows
"What, you mean you don't wanna play Raccoon Tycoon?" is definitely my favorite lol
Ben is OBSESSED with the bathroom. The power of statistics to know how many people are taking a leak lololol
I love that there’s literally nothing stopping him from saying he has this power now because no one could fact check him. Even if he had that power, he’d get the same reaction as he would if he were lying because why would anyone believe him lol
How many are peein a lil bit on their own shoe
You guys seem to be such beautiful best friends, that kind of friendship that's brotherly
20:14 "Wow, the lights are so beautiful!" "Yeah, I've been trying to tell you... forever, dude"
their friendship is so heartwarming to watch
Ben is such a good conversationalist, he's the kind of person that can effortlessly make you feel so present in a conversation
it's called LSD ya dope, you might try it some time!
@@mikewhitwhat a disrespectful comment to such a sweet observation
The rat race can be a dangerous trap for many people who miss out the simpler aspects of life, bullshitting around with people who you are comfortable with. This is gold fellas.

"How did you do that?"
"Why did I do what?"
feels like two 5 year olds who been transformed to 30 year olds for one day
When you take acid, everything feels like a movie. The shots in this capture what tripping is like so well.
reading tech support sounds like you are seeing some aliens talk about funny stuff, favourite thing to do
Haha yea everything in this is so clearly acid and not acting. Like at the beginning thinking the construction guys are like from a heist, and being so curious about what they are working on 😂😂
The shots definitely don’t capture what tripping feels like. It’s just a cinematic TH-cam video.
Ben's dad story cut with Emil's fascination of the tiny sweater is genius! Best video yet!!
ben's dad doxxed him irl
I was so filled with anxiety this morning and then this video popped up and.. healed me?!! I feel like if they can pull off doing acid in a mall and staying happy and all well.. I can handle this day aswell
this is one of the most captivating videos i've ever seen ! instant sub.
i just love the raw energy of it , at moments you forget that ur watching a video and just take in everything.
the cinematic feel of the video is clean ! i just love the colors, and big props to the camera guy ! truly a shinobi at work ! he really makes you forget that there's a third person holding a camera rolling with em.
pls more
Thank you!
This was accidentally (or intentionally) such a beautiful piece on friendship and the beauty of friendship in the modern world lol. Emil and Ben balance and complement each other so well, I’m sure the way this was filmed was meant to be a gag but it actually made me smile and laugh so much. Happy holidays, pigs.
psychedelics have a way of making boring things insanely funny, such as a corporate ass shopping center lol
This was fantastic, more of this
Guys!! Thank you!
"do more drugs"
@@benandemilshow feel like our universe would collapse in on itself if you guys and Colin and Samir were in the same room together.
@@kyletaggart2880 haha yup
I rewatch this to remind myself to enjoy the small things in life. One of my top 10 TH-cam videos possibly ever, you guys remind me to show love to my friends and not take life too seriously.
The last 6/7 minutes of this video never cease to make me happy, you guys are great.
“Man I don’t know how to stand” while standing just fine is prime acid😂
This is perfect because you aren’t “trying to act like you’re on acid” this is very accurate
Most underrated moment is when Ben points at the dog at 13:43. Like its just so important that there's a dog there but no time to acknowledge it mid-Zoltar reading. I absolutely love this.
Thanks for pointing that out. He do be pointin'
A Gem🥵👌
Hahahahahah
didnt catch that, that's hilarious
And the dog looks up too🤣🤣
I really admire your friendship 🥹 having someone you trust to share moments like these with is priceless
Something about the top of the parking garage...that was a vibe.
round of applause to dillon for the vision here. im high as shit right now and this is so well edited??? i feel like i hear them talking like the way you would hear someone having a conversation as you pass by them at the mall, or overhear someone sitting near you at a bar. like i'm there where they are and they're somewhere in the periphery and it's just this weirdly comforting buzz
Unreasonably well done. Camera work and yall are hilarious. This is super unhealthy to suggest but this needs to be at least a monthly thing 😅

@@benandemilshowyes sir!
It seems to be doing well, because I'm pretty sure I'd never seen one of their videos before, and now I have!
this is already a christmas classic. thank you boys
instant classic
I accidentally stumbled upon one of the best videos I've ever seen.
Glad you liked it!
Thanks TH-cam for recommending me this video. I love how real this gets, what a great experience to share with a friend, feels so personal but with so many people around being part of the ride
Wanted you to know that this is my introduction to you guys. Now you have to maintain these personalities for every video going forward.
Lmao don’t worry they do. Their podcast is literally the exact same
those laughs after meeting the fans was so funny. that laugh makes so much sense when you talk to someone and you think they have no idea you’re on acid.
great video guys. awesome cinematography too
Its usually the other way around. You are convinced they know you are on acid, they just think your acting weird
This brought a warmth to my heart. Something truly lovely about this video. Just two friends doing acid and having fun it’s lovely. Great video Ben & Emil and props to whoever edited and filmed this video!!
Literally the best art in history
Some of these shots, specifically the ones with the music set behind them are really good. Feels like you’re watching memories play out in real time.
Frank Ocean type beat
This is art yall absolutely killed this and Dillon you are a genius.
Omg hi Garrett! Funny seeing you here. Hope you are well. :)

seeing raccoon tycoon on acid would give me psychosis
honestly I loved this it was so real and presh. also huge props to the editor cause that's what rlly made it
that's our lovely compatriot DILLON MOORE
This is lame.
Kinda handy to have somebody record while you drop acid. Gets rid of the unnerving "did this crazy thing I saw actually happen?" part of it later
I tried to take a picture of my trip before. Obviously it didn't work
what a great video. these two guys and their appreciative demeanor are so incredibly infectious. it almost made me feel like i was on a light dose. one of most the genuine things i've seen in a long time
hell yeah thank you daniel! check out our weekly podcast!
This instantly brought me back to the 90's when I was 20 and able to find really good acid . Me and danny my best friend would go to the mall and just have the best stupid time. It never failed that some random crazy shit would happen . The best part of watching this was as soon as their trip kicked in and the way their demeanor , actions, the way they are talking . This feeling came over me so much joy
I love how they went Christmas shopping but forgot to buy any gifts and just got the munchies and ate
i love these dudes, i love that they are friends and hang out and do acid while christmas shopping, thats what friendship is about
This is so pure and innocent, it filled my heart. I can't do trips anymore so I'm living through this 😄
13:45 🤣 the whole short sequence. Answers question but it’s not a question, points at dog
Dillon has such a unique and incredible videography style like wow i enjoyed this so much
Thank u!!!
Videography was on point. felt like a fly on the wall. Camera work blended into the environment perfectly.
Yeah, this is awesome. Like A24 or something
Recording candid is a great idea rather than following them around. Every shot is done very well, feels like im there almost with how its done. Great job
Thank you for taking me on your wonderful trip. I'm good now. ❤
This video is so much more than two guys on acid going shopping. This is what I feel like we’re missing out on. Just time with each other, kindness, laughter. And wait, no phones in their faces constantly. Man this is humorous and beautiful at the same time xD
ben exclaiming "you're all the same height, it's incredible" and taking photos of that group of girls from different angles is an underrated moment of this video. also emil commenting on the guy washing his hands and squelching the soap is so relatable lol
it is cool
funniest, most compelling and engrossing video i've watched on youtube in a while. have zero clue who ben and emil are, but this was suprisingily super entertaining.
Hell yeah thank you so much! We are two guys and we do a weekly comedy podcast you’ll probably enjoy
Same. ❤
This was so chill, loved the way the camera looked, felt like I was just walking around laughing along
genuinely the most delightful video ive seen recently, i was cracking a smile almost the entire time
I bet they paid a lot for parking after. Loved this guys
this is correct; i forgot the damn ticket and we paid the max
LMFAOO
This whole thing with the tuba guy and then seeing him again later in the video performing… this was shot so beautifully it’s so cinematic great job Dillon!! You kinda got fucked over but in the end I’m glad you guys have full reign over your content with pay pigs because this is really better than anything you could’ve created anywhere else.
Aaaaaah, yes the ole 'real world' adventure on acid. You guys held it together really well. For my trip mate and me it mostly consisted of a lot of uncontrollable laughs and lingering. Nice video!
This is so wholesome. Best buds laughing for hours.
never thought i would see ben pee at a urinal but it is a new day
Our lives are changed for the better
this satisfies my urges of discretely following around ben and emil for a day
This is so good. A documentary about two guys and I’ve never been more enthralled
i have no idea who you two are but i’m so glad this was in my feed and that i watched it…perfect encapsulation of the small joys and inexplicable hilarity of life when you’re on acid. i think a mall would be way too overstimulating for me but i absolutely loved watching you both explore it from a distance
you boys are soulmates, you were meant to be friends. This whole video is absolutely gorgeous. You guys are so funny, I even wanted to cry a few times because of how real you guys got. Nice work guys, shout-out Dillon!!
id trust ben to trip sit me even if we were both on acid
That was so good. Learning from Masters in THE most chill environment ever.
