"Growing up my dad always dreamed of owning a '57 Chevy Bel Air."
I've seen this.
"When I was eight years old, I promised him
that on his 57th birthday, I would buy him a '57 Bel Air."
"I never forgot and was able to fulfill my promise.
Here is his reaction."
Oh no, I'm gonna cry.
Oh no, you guys are showing me legit emotional stuff.
(girl) Dad, no, there's one right there in the garage.
Oh. This was on Reddit.
- (son) Happy birthday. - (Jeana) Aw.
- (dad, tearfully) No. - (laughing) "No."
That was the cutest no.
- (Greg) Oh. - (Mitch) Oh my gosh, I'm gonna cry.
This is gonna make me cry.
Oh. You're trying to get people to cry?
- (son) You remember? - I'm gonna go hug my dad.
The feels. So many feels.
It's amazing how emotional people get over physical things.
So [bleep] dope. That's so cool.
Aw, I love seeing videos like this.
- (dad kisses) - Oh, that's so sweet.
- (dad) Oh my. - "Oh my."
- (dad kisses) - (chuckles)
Oh, that's such a nice car too.
- (dad) This is real. - I'm crying at the vertical footage.
(collective chuckles)
You know what the saddest part is?
It's that they filmed it like this and not like thi--
I'm joking.
Oh, it's so cute. Oh, it's adorable.
(grunts in endearment)
(narrator voice) And that was the first day
he ever kissed his son and told him that he was a good boy.
"My mom is a lifelong Seattle Seahawks fan."
"I got her Super Bowl tickets
and didn't tell her until they came in the mail."
I love videos like this.
- (mom, abruptly) What? - (laughs)
(mom) What are you talking about?
- (son) Those are Super Bowl tickets. - (mom) No.
- (son) Yeah. - (mom) No, they're not.
- No way! You can't do this! - (son) We can.
I just love seeing older people get really cool things,
'cause their inner child comes out.
(son) And we're staying two and a half miles from the stadium
- in a Homewood Suites. - (mom) No.
Aw.
- (mom) No. - (Jeana) Dogs are excited too.
- (Jesse chuckles) - "Hey, what about me? I want to go."
(son) We're going to the Super Bowl, Mom.
Aw. (chuckles)
What you all doing to me over here?
"Uncle Henry is hearing and speech impaired.
He has a heart of gold and is a kid at heart.
To show him we love him,
we all pitched in and got Henry the ultimate gift."
- (woman) Open it, Henry. - (Henry) I don't know what it is.
Say no to vertical filming, guys.
(laughter in video)
- (whispers) What is it? - (woman) What is it, Henry?
- (Henry) iPad! I got an iPad! - (laughter)
(chuckling)
Oh, ho-ho.
- Aw. - (family cheering)
(Henry) I've got an iPad!
And some kids would be like, "Why isn't this an iPad Mini?"
Apple bringing so much joy.
Whoa.
Oh!
- (family laughing) - Okay.
- (man) You HAD an iPad. - (family laughing)
I wouldn't be this excited about anything.
That would have been great if they pranked him,
- and it wasn't an iPad. - (Jesse chuckles)
(Jeana) That would have been great.
(Henry) Got an iPad!
Is Apple using that for promotion now?
Aw, those are adorable. They're adorable.
Now I'm gonna just start doing nice things for people.
(both chuckle)
♪ (dramatic chord) ♪
(Finebros) So first off, from the three videos,
- what moments stood out to you the most? - The no's.
They were all like, "No!"
The moment the first guy realizes he gets the car,
'cause he kinda goes like-- (gibberish)
"Oh." Just that noise.
'Cause he didn't mean to do it. It just came out.
The moment when the woman realized it was tickets
then she looked up.
Mums, I find, always when you give them something nice,
they don't think there's like--
"No. No, no, no, this isn't happening."
"No. These are not tickets. We are not going."
There's something adorable and unfortunate about Henry.
So you're like, "Good for Henry."
(Finebros) How does it make you feel while watching?
It makes me feel awesome.
Warm and fuzzy.
All warm and fuzzy inside.
(grunts in endearment) Warms my heart.
My kokoro is warmer-ro...
"Kokoro" is Japanese for heart.
Makes me feel like I gotta call my parents or something.
Makes me feel like a horrible child.
I need to buy my dad a car or something.
There's something about gift-giving
that doesn't really jibe with me.
You know, if I want stuff, I'll get it.
If other people want stuff, they should get it.
But I guess it goes deeper than that, right?
Like, those physical objects must represent for those people
real deep connections and love from their families.
It made me smile.
It doesn't matter if it's these videos or--
I still remember that kid getting-- it was like an N64.
Everyone loses their mind.
You get to experience that one happy moment
before they go back to beating the [bleep] out of--
(Finebros) Have you ever been surprised with a gift?
My mum got me a thought machine, and I loved it.
Every Christmas for us was usually pretty epic,
- you know? - Yeah.
Like, they would hide them in a closet or in different spaces
- and give us a hint. - Wait, who's "they"?
Yeah.
You mean Santa Claus and all of his elves?
My parents gave me tickets to Celine Dion when I was seven.
And I remember I didn't understand the notion
of being able to see her live in concert,
and I started crying and bawling and laid on the floor.
During a little rough time in our life,
we couldn't afford a lot of presents.
But StarCraft had just come out.
And that Christmas, my dad got me and my brother StarCraft,
and we lost our minds.
She got me a Wii, and I ripped it open like a kid,
'cause I was so happy.
But unfortunately, in our relationship...
- (Jeana laughs) - ...there was no Wii in it.
But I had that first reaction like in the videos.
(Finebros) Have you ever surprised anyone
- with some special present? - Yes.
I mean, I wouldn't say, like, quite on that level.
I gave my partner tickets to the F1, the Grand Prix,
which I think he was pretty excited about.
I bought both my mom and dad a car.
I had parents that have always taken care of me,
and it's really cool to give something back.
I got my parents a trip to New York this Christmas.
But right before my mom opened it,
we had to bring alcohol to our family's get-together.
And I forgot to buy it.
So I was like, "Mom, can I use some of yours?"
And she's like, "Of course, using our house again.
- You use all our stuff..." - (laughs)
...and just started yelling at me.
And while she was opening the gift, I was like, "Read the gift."
I've had a gift backfire.
I decided that I was going to surprise my girlfriend,
now fiancee.
I gave her a box.
And she cried because she thought I was proposing to her,
and it was a necklace.
So don't surprise people on Christmas
if you've been going out for four years with a box,
'cause that's a bad move.
(Finebros) So these videos go viral all the time--
sons and daughters giving parents or other relatives
personal gifts. Why do you think these videos get shared so much?
'Cause it makes people feel good.
They're like visual Hallmark Cards.
I think the most important thing to a thing that goes viral
is that people are proud of sharing something.
It's kinda like the guy who responds to the double rainbow.
It's such a crazy over-the-top reaction. That's why you share it.
There's so many things nowadays
that are either planned or they're fake.
You never really know online anymore.
And so these, you trust them more often.
Maybe they're hinting that they want presents.
I bet you there are a good amount of people
that share it for that reason--
that they are hoping someone will give them something.
(Finebros) Are you the type to cry at these types of videos,
- depending what they are? - (mock cry) Naw, man.
(laughs) No.
I don't cry, but I do a lot of "aww."
I'm the only kind of guy who cries
from anything that makes me happy.
Not really. I don't. I try to hold it in.
When I feel like I could cry when I should be crying,
I tend to intentionally shut it down,
just 'cause I get real self-conscious.
But if I was by myself, I probably could've teared up.
I'm too manly to cry at something like this.
What are you talking about?
No, I cry all the time.
When I see videos like this, I don't cry.
But my eyes get a little watery.
- Really? - Just a little bit.
- Mine don't. - Really?
No, I mean, I enjoyed the videos, but I don't get teary-eyed.
When I do that, I really try to hide it from you.
- (laughs) - Like, I would-- (sharp inhale)
- Nuh-uh. - Try to suck it back in.
- Yeah, I don't want people to know. - What? You think I'm gonna
- make fun of you? - Yeah, you'll be like, "What, Jesse?"
(Jeana) You're crying from a video?
(Finebros) And finally, would you say the cliche is true
that it's better to give than to receive?
I think it's better to give than to receive.
That's the greatest feeling you can ever do,
is just give someone a feeling of happiness.
- Yes. For sure. - Absolutely.
We have a video about that.
Yeah, we actually like about how giving
can actually bring you way more happiness.
If I received something from somebody,
I just don't like to take it, you know?
It just feels weird to me.
Well, with the exception of when you're a kid,
you reach the point where you're not waiting for presents
from your parents or Santa.
The happiness of gifts is giving it to someone else.
When you give something,
it's not a tangible thing that you're getting back.
Like, when you see someone smile or cry or just be so overjoyed,
it's a moment in time that is only yours.
Everyone's gonna get an iPad.
But not everyone's gonna get that emotion or that experience
that they got from getting the iPad.
And that's something that you get to witness
and that you are a part of. You created that.
I would rather see someone happy
than have someone worry about buying me something.
She will sneakily ask questions months in advance
to figure out things to get you that present on your birthday.
- I always do that. - She does it for her friends, for me.
And I'm like, "Oh my god, you did ask me that six months ago
if I liked that thing, and you did it sneakily
- so I wouldn't know. - I know. I always do that to everybody,
and nobody ever catches on.
And then they get the gift and they're like-- (gasp) "Oh my god."
- Yeah, she's really good. - I should start filming it.
I'll get reactions like that.
This is your boy, D-Trix. (chokes up)
And thanks for watching this episode.
See all the people below?
Why don't you go give them the gift of subscribing?
And then maybe, like, give them your heart.
So I think it's time for you to go and give someone something
and maybe film the reaction.
- Even like a hug. - Aw.
Goodbye. Thanks for watching.
I'm gonna go call my dad and get him a Super Bowl, car, or iPad.
I'll be back.
