So I saw some of those burner phone SIM cards at the supermarket, and I thought
wouldn't it be 'interesting' if I got one, put it in my phone, and tweeted the phone number
and just let the chaos unfold?
I know this is a terrible idea! But, I'm curious! What will happen?
If I get more than 5 phone calls at the same time, will the phone explode?
What's it gonna do? Who's gonna text me? Who's gonna call me?
I think it's gonna be a fun experiment... in chaos.
Also, I've still got a bit of phone anxiety, so maybe speaking to some of you guys will help...
Wow, I wanted to say 'lubricate', I don't want you to lubricate anything,
[laughs] I mean just, make me feel a bit better! Give me some training, that's the word.
Maybe I'll learn how to speak like a normal, non-alien human.
Okay I've tweeted the number [laughs nervously]
I'm so nervous! This is so stupid.
Phil, it's just speaking on the phone! It's fine!
Birthing breaths... [exhales loudly]
I've done it! [suspenseful sound effect]
How long will it take someone to call or text?
[phone dinging] Oh, I got a text! [gasp effect]
[laughs] First message I got is this dog. I don't think he's feeling the pride month.
We need to turn him around!
[phone ringing] Here we go!
Phil: Hello [call disconnected noise]
Oh they hung up! Oh my god look at WhatsApp.
Should I be worried that this might actually explode the phone?
[phone ringing and dinging frantically] There's like, a million phone calls coming up,
and it won't let me answer any. Hello! Let me speak to people!
My phone is just a blank screen! What is happening, oh my god you can
see the messages going up each time, theres 587 messages.
I think it's broken the phone. So it turns out, it did break the phone.
Is that the end of the video? Thanks for... [laughs] Thanks for coming!
Maybe I should leave it just 10 minutes, to see if it cools down a bit
This is actually cursed, I should not have done this. [laughs]
Switch off, can I switch it off? Right. Just give it a second. Cool down.
It's cooled down a bit. I'm now switching the phone back on.
Hello. Will it work? Please work. I wanna speak to someone.
The phones just like "AAH"
[ringing] Oh!
Caller: [whispering] Hi Phil... Can you hear me? Phil: Hi, I can hear you, why are we whispering?
Caller: I'm in a cupboard Phil: You're in a... why are you in a cupboard?
C: I'm in a cupboard at work. P: You're in a cupboard at work? Where do you work?
C: At the hospital. P: If you're at a hospital, go back...
P: get back to the patients! They need you [call disconnecting]
Did anyone get the ASMR tingles from that?
[ringing] P: Hello? C: [heavy breathing]
P: I can hear someone breathing? C: [yelps] [call disconnecting]
[laughs] Are you okay? Either they just fell down the stairs,
or they got too scared to talk to me. I can relate.
[ringing] P: Hello?
Caller: Oh my god hello P: Hi! Oh my god, it's someone, are you in the UK?
C: Yes I am, I'm in Reading. P: You're in Reading, ok, see I haven't had anyone from the UK,
P: so I'm happy to hear your voice, how're you doing? C: I'm um, er, wordless
P: [laughs] You're wordless! Me all the time C: I wasn't expecting this.
[call disconnects] Oh no! Reading, I wonder if they went to Dan's school.
[ringing] P: Hi, uh who is this? Caller: This is KJ from Australia
P: You're in Australia? Oh my god! KJ: Yeah, I'm in Australia. P: [attempting accent] That's so bonzer!
P: So, is it freezing cold there? It's winter at the moment, isnt it? KJ: Where I'm from we don't get snow.
P: Aw, that's sad. I'll send you some in the post but it'll just arrive as a drippy puddle.
P: How about you judge my Australian accent? KJ: Alright, go.
P: [attempting accent] G'day, so I'm just having a chat and we're talking about- oh no I went American,
P: I went American! Honestly what was that one? KJ: [laughs] Well aside from when you went American, I would give that a 6.
P: A 6! So, have you got an interesting fact about yourself you wanna share with the internet?
KJ: You guys are the reason that helped me come out as pansexual back in 2017
P: That is incredible! And it's pride month. What a great anniversary of that. Yay!
P: Thanks for not hanging up when I did an Australian accent. [laughs]
Bye! I'm waving into the phone, that's weird. But bye!
[ringing] Oh god, everyone's trying to get through now!
Caller: Hello??? P: I'm looking at a picture of a cat, am I speaking to a cat?
C: No... yes! It's me the cat. Phil: Oh, yes! [laughs] I'm speaking to someone's cat.
P: Are you Corey the Cat, by any chance? C: Yeah I am!
P: Have you, uh, caught any mice recently? C: There was a mouse in my garage like last week.
P: Yeah? [laughs] C: It was crazy...
P: Sorry, just that I didn't think I'd be speaking to a cat today, it's really thrown me off guard.
C: [meows] P: Do you wanna put your owner on the phone? C: Yeah, one sec.
P: Okay. C: Hi!
P: Hi! So pop quiz, what's your favorite Phil video? C: Letting fans choose my outfits.
P: Oh yeah, that was a, that was a terrible mistake. Do you think the cheese suit was a look?
C: Yeah...! P: Would you wear it?
C: Yeah, for pride month. P: Pride month, yes! We could all wear cheese suits
P: for pride month. It would be perfect. No one would expect it.
C: Yeah, did you know, horses cannot breathe through their mouths?
P: What? What do they breathe through? Oh, I guess their nose. [laughs]
C: Their nose, yeah their noses! P+C: [meows]
[ringing] P: Helloooo
Caller: Hi, Phil! P: Hey, how ya doing? We might not have much time
P: because it keeps breaking. C: Happy pride month!
P: Happy pride month! Where are you in the world? C: I'm in Italy.
P: Italy! It's such an international video today. When I was speaking about how I made spaghetti,
P: I said I rinsed the spaghetti under water before I put it in the pan, is that weird?
C: Um... It kind of is. You don't rinse spaghetti. It's not like rice, so you just boil it and then you cook it.
P: Okay. I thought I'd ask an Italian, and now you've said that, I'll stop rinsing my spaghetti
P: cause last time I said that, everyone on my liveshow was like 'what are you talking about'?
Oh my god, I've got 3,786 WhatsApp messages. What is happening? What is actually happening.
Caller: Hiya! Phil: Hi! Who's this?
C: This is Oliver [redacted] P: Oliver [redacted], are you having a good day?
Oliver: I'm having a great day now! P: Oh, amazing! How long have you watched my videos for?
O: Goodness me, almost 8 years? P: We have been through so much together.
P: And where are you from in the world? O: I'm in Surrey.
P: Where's Surrey, wait. It's near London right? I like that I'm in London and I got no idea what is surrounding me at all.
O: I'm about an hours train away. P: So I'll shout out the window really loud,
P: and you might hear me. O: Probably, yeah. My mum's here as well.
P: Hi mum! Mum: Olly has followed you for a long long long time.
Mum: We went to Pride in London. Olly waved at Dan. He waved back and Olly just burst into tears.
Mum: It was the best day. P: AW. Well happy pride month! To both of you!
O: Yeah you too! It's the first, isn't it? P: It's the first! O: Thank you very much.
[ringing] Phil: Hey! Caller: Oh my god!
C: I called 116 times. P: 116th time, lucky you got through!
P: So who am I speaking to, before it inevitably breaks? C: I'm Sophia, I'm from Poland.
Sophia: I found you from Undertale! P: Can you do your best Papyrus laugh?
S: Nyeh heh heh! P: [laughs] That was better than mine, that was amazing.
[ringing] Mirian: Hi, it's Mirian! Phil: Hey, Mirian!
P: My phone just crashed, and started, I think it started calling you, did I call you then?
M: Yes, you called me. P: I don't know what's happening,
P: It's literally not working anymore. Mirian, where are you from in the world?
M: I'm from Brazil. P: I was gonna say, are you Mirian that does the captions? M: I'm the one that does your captions. Yes it's me!
P: That's amazing! M: Yes it's me! You better put me in the video
M: So I can caption myself. P: That's like caption-ception.
P: Try and caption the word caption-ception. That's your challenge, Mirian.
M: Oh my god Phil, why are you doing this to me. P: [laughs] What's another long word I can say?
P: Anti-disestablishment, Arianism. M: Oh my god. There's a word in Portuguese,
M: Can you try saying it? P: Portuguese, okay.
M: Parallelpipedo P: What are you making me say?
M: It's not a bad word, it's like a type of tile. P: Okay, [tries to repeat it].
M: That's amazing, you did amazing. P: What would you rate that out of 10?
M: That was a 9. [ringing]
What if I do an American accent and trick this person into thinking it's not me.
Phil: [attempting accent] Uh, hello? Caller: Hello?
P: Uh, hello who is this? C: This is Stevie.
P: This is... Terrence. Stevie: ... Terrence?
P: No it's not really, it's Phil. P+S: [laughs]
S: I've been calling you for literally an hour. They sent me home from work because
S: I took too long of a break. P: Oh my gosh, did I get you fired from work? I'm so sorry.
S: Like my boss came out to my car and she was like, 'what are you doing'?
S: And I was like, "I'm just trying to call a YouTuber!" and she's like, "dude, go home."
P: Did I trick you with my American accent? S: Uh, I didn't know you were trying to do an accent
P: I said my name was Terrence! S: Terrence? I don't know if that's the most American name.
S: What about Kyle? P: Oh, I should have said Kyle! Or Chuck!
S: Chuck, that's a good one. P: So what is your job that I got you fired from?
S: I work at a little coffee shop. P: Oh nice, what is the best thing you make in
P: the coffee shop? I could do with a coffee right now. S: It's actually not even coffee. You do like strawberry vanilla,
S: and you do Red Bull, and put coconut milk on top. P: Ooh, with Red Bull in it? That sounds very caffeinated,
P: but also amazing. Where are you from in the world? S: Idaho!
P: Idaho? Right, I'm gonna try and point to that on an American map, and I bet I get it wrong.
P: Idaho sounds quite middle-y, I'm gonna go with this one! No.
P: This one. Nebraska? As if that's Nebraska. It's in the middle, right?
S: No. P: Ugh! [laughs]
P: Oh my god I was so close!
[ringing] Phil: Hello! Caller: Oh my gosh, I'm gonna die.
P: What's your name? C: Baz
B: Thanks for your videos, you are literally like my home and my safe place.
P: Aw! B: Thank you.
P: Aw that means so much! Thank you for watching them, that's really sweet of you to say.
P: I am sending you all of the vibes and good energy into the phone right now. ZLOM.
[ringing] Bonjour, je m'appelle Phillipe (Hello, my name is Phil)
[call disconnecting] Oh no they thought it was true! I guess my French accent is too convincing.
[ringing] Phil: What's your name, where'd you come from? Caller: Hey...
P: Hey! That's a very deep voice you've got there. I'm a bit jealous.
C: Thank you... P: [laughs] You're welcome! So what do you do?
C: Thank you... I have an OnlyFans P: Really! What'd you do on there?
C: I... like to put whipped cream up my **** then I *** it out as if my- P: Oh my god... No! Stop! No!
That was chaotic. I would not recommend that to anyone with more followers than 10 people.
But, it was so nice to speak to all of you! And I've just saw I got 4,000 text messages,
so I think this is gonna be the phone call video, and then I'm going to make another video
going through all of your guys' texts and see what funny stuff you sent
because at the moment the phone is on fire, and I don't want to burn down my new house.
So, thank you for watching! If you've enjoyed this give me a thumbs up.
Thanks to everyone that called, sorry if you didn't get through. It was just insane,
I did not think it was gonna be like that. I don't know what I thought was gonna happen,
but it wasnt that.
I just tried to switch it off and then more people are calling.
Stop. Stop! [ringing] No. Hannah. Stop!
