@9:28 how unreasonable is Peters logic. He says if you have back pain, seek a professional. The guy pitching said the product will remove the need to see a professional. Peter then says “So I don’t need then!” Make up your mind Peter 😂
I mean, it's also in response to the guy who says "it's all about the spine and the individual case" (paraphrasing,the guy was blabbering incoherently and not going back to try and decipher 😅) in a breath and then in the next trying to peddle a product that will in no way at all account for that,so even if it wasn't painfully obvious already,the guy himself kind of told everyone his bs product doesn't work

@calvinspark1946 it's not the study of medicine like to become a medical doctor. It's the historical analysis of ancient cultural practices and his degree is only honorary.

I had a couple of major back operations in 2010, prior to that I tried everything I found on the market to prevent that but nothing helped. None of the gimmick devices are worth the effort. My back was so bad I was turned down by 4 Chiropractors before turning to the dark side of gimmicks.

I waited 28 years until I couldn't stand the pain to have to operations and now I regret having it. Nothing, gimmick wise has helped.

Let's be honest, if they weren't on TV, a placebo with dirt cheap production costs would have them all over it. They'd only really have to invest in marketing.
25k for 10% of the company is very little money tor quite the share. Bargain selling their company either means the product is bad or they just came on dragons den for marketing. Well after hearing the news that they made massive bank after the episode it is most likely the latter.
They were far too nice to the quack medicine pitch at the start, I think they deserved a much more robust dressing down for trying to sell such a thing. Its tragic when people fall for this sort of thing when they're desperate.
you can tell by the way hes talking that first one is a blagger used to blagging his way through life, i wouldn't trust him telling me the weather,looks like hes scooped up that poor guy to be his piggy bank.there's one born everyday lol the second one IT COULD BE 5 MILLION was enough for me buy buy BS guy
Taj sells vitamins and he has the audacity to claim he is an evidence guy lol. No studies have shown anything other than marginal benefits at best to vitamins.
