at some point it's not going to be about
the payphone because who cares we don't
need those Fortis
we're on Wi-Fi right now
[Music]
so right here what we have is a
collection of many of the phones we've
taken out over the past two years right
around this level is where it starts to
corrode this is usually due to both
humans and dogs you know urinating
frequently on the pedestal in some of
these other units we've installed angled
shelves on them so that it actually
falls onto the ground or more hopefully
onto their own feet so then they learn a
lesson not to urinate on the phone
we get to a phone - the first thing we
do is check to make sure it works we
dial zero we make sure the handset works
that you can hear it you blow into it
and then you make a phone call just to
make sure that the call goes through and
the coin gets collected into the machine
this right here we got about twenty or
thirty dollars in here's the weirdest
thing I've ever found in a pay phone was
a used hypodermic needle not so weird
but definitely unsanitary
I've also once found old baseball cards
jammed in here like old old baseball
cards so you think that someone would
hold on of those for some reason they
decided not to the phones really do take
it on the personality the neighborhood
sometimes you'll find like over here
like someone was giving out guitar
lessons or something and you know it's
actually I feel bad you know getting rid
of it it's graffiti but a lot of times I
like to leave it because it does it
gives a little bit of a personality
ain't nothing changed except after know
after we die we return to life back to
the money you're gonna heard you give
yourself a headache trying to figure it
out so it's just like in your home you
know you have a modem and a router but
here it's a little more a little more
meat to it and people they end up
logging in they probably don't even know
it comes from the payphone it's a
beautiful thing so you see right here
free free Wi-Fi van Wagner that's that's
us that's coming from right here the
future of these phones is not the phones
it's the infrastructure if you have
electricity and Internet inside a
payphone you can do anything there
[Music]
there they are One Nights work what
would you say is the total take is
Fillie
what's its about $1,200 yeah I would go
with I would say you're comfortable with
that at some point it's not going to be
about the pay phone
pay phone may actually even be free
calls because who cares we don't need
those quarters we're on Wi-Fi right now
looks like we got a bag of dog
[Music]
that's the thing those people walk by I
got payphones they're taking videos of
payphones they never see the paper one
before guys no idea is Wi-Fi commander
