- Welcome to Out of the Box
where we take a very VAT19 look at some
of our favorite products.
Today we're checking out toys
that are probably too dangerous for kids.
- We're gonna unbox them
and we're gonna to show you how to use them.
We're also gonna show you how not to use them.
- Let's do this.
(upbeat music)
- Mkay, I think I want the royal blue one.
- [Joey] You mean cobalt.
- [Jon] It's more of a.
Yeah all right sure.
- Oh no
- Yes, the Shock Ball, activate.
- [Joey] Oh no.
- It's like a grenade.
- It's all yours.
- All right, well this is the Shock Ball
and it is recommended for ages 14 and up
because it -- (exclaims)
Doh, I feel like, I feel it in my head.
- I still feel it
- It's in my hair.
- It was still staticky kind of.
- If you'd only touch around these like silver touchpoints
you're gonna be fine.
It lights up like that when it's shocking,
but it's just random, intermittent.
- Yeah, you have no idea when it's going to shock you.
If you leave it out on the table,
it'll turn off automatically for safety.
- Wow, this thing, it's scary.
It's not dangerous,
but you don't wanna give this to kids.
- It's definitely more intense, so
I wouldn't give this to my five year old.
- One thing about it is that it makes
you make some weird sounds.
- Yes it does.
(groans)
(screams)
- Oeh, it like burns.
(laughs)
Okay, it's coming off.
Take it off. (laughing)
Oh Gosh!
(upbeat music)
(screaming)
Ah dang it!
Ow, dang it!
Fort!
(screams)
(laughs)
- All right, I think it's your turn.
- Okay, I'm gonna go with yellow polka dots please.
Bring out the polka dots.
All right.
- What do we got here? Clown pants.
- Whoa, this is a wrist strapped fireball shooter.
- So this lets you shoot little fireballs
from your wrist or you can remotely set it somewhere
and shoot it from there.
- So what you do is,
you stuff little flash paper, flash cotton pieces
inside the pyro mini which is on your wrist
and then you press the button
and it ignites those pieces
and shoots them out of your wrist really quick
igniting this tiny little fire
that looks really cool but it's--
I mean it's not really like that dangerous
but it is still fire.
- But it is still fire.
- Yeah, you got to respect the fire.
- You got to respect fire always.
I have made fire.
(chuckles)
Say that every time you shoot too.
- Yes, yes you can. - Makes you real cool.
- Yeah, it's perfect for magicians
if they want to use it as part of the show.
But it's also just fun for anybody,
because I mean it's fun.
- And it's small enough that you can hide it
under your sleeve you can't really see
where it comes from.
It just looks like it came out of your wrist
or your hand.
- [Jon] Magic.
- Magic.
- You're shooting flames.
You're gonna feel like you're Mario
but that doesn't make you Mario.
- No. - It's a me, Mario.
- No sir, your real name.
- It's a Phillip Brown.
- Mam, this man tried to jump on your turtle?
- Yeah, he said he was on a mushroom.
- Ah, let's go.
- Oh no no, you're coming with me.
(Super Mario sound effects playing)
- All right, I think it's my turn.
I'm gonna go with the one
that has the pink bottom and the fish scales on top.
- [Jon] Love it.
- I say it's pretty scaly.
- I see it.
- Pretty fishy.
- Oh yeah.
- The Pocket Shot.
- Pew pew pew.
- This is a different take on a sling shot.
- This is like a 360 degrees like cone
that wraps around the BB that you can shoot.
Now it comes with a bunch of BBs
and it shoots these things up
to 350 feet per second.
- It's really compact, you can put this in your pocket.
Hence the name.
Projectile in, pinch it, pull it back and fire!
You can shoot pretty much anything.
You can shoot these metal ball bearings.
You can shoot paint balls.
Spitballs.
If you want to go over to VAT19,
pick some of those up.
I wouldn't say this thing is safe for kids
cause it can do some serious damage.
- Definitely.
- And we would know, cause we shot a lot of thing with this.
- Yes, now this thing is very cool to shoot
but it's even cooler to shoot in slow motion.
(upbeat music)
- All right, I will take the blue one with polka dots.
Bring it here.
- Sizeable, shakeable, oh.
- Oh yeah.
- Now this is my kind of danger.
- I love this one.
This is the Stratolauncher.
This lets you make a rocket out
of like a 2 liter bottle and the parts that are included.
- Yeah.
- And it shoots up to 350 feet in the air.
It's super cool.
You just fill it with some water
and then you pressurize it with a bike pump
which you probably have in your garage.
- [Jon] Yeah
- [Joey] And you have yourself a little rocket.
- It can be dangerous for kids,
because if you launch it incorrectly
you basically have a missile on your hands.
- Yeah, but there is a safety release valve
if you want to move it without releasing it.
- So this lets you build a rocket.
- Without a rocket scientist.
- It's important.
- But how are we going to produce enough energy
to overcome gravity?
- We can forget about propulsion for a moment
until we discuss re-entry
and ensuring the safety of materials.
- Ugh guys, you just have to squeeze this.
- Oh my god.
(cheers)
What?
(sobbing)
- I'm gonna go with the one that's clearly a hat.
- [Jon] Definitely a hat in there.
- [Joey] That's definitely a hat.
- [Jon] That's way too dangerous for kids.
- I'm thinking this is a nice sun hat.
You know for mowing the grass.
- Yeah definitely.
- Yeah, a nice dad hat.
Not a hat, it turns out.
As it turns out.
Actually it is a 10 foot pogo stick.
- That looks like a piece of paper.
- I think that thing is too hard to wrap.
- Yeah. - So, pick the hat box.
Let's get that pogo stick.
So this is the Vurtego.
A pogo stick that can put you 10 feet in the air.
- [Jon] That's the world record.
- [Joey] Yeah.
- That's crazy.
It's got an air powered cylinder in here.
Your regular little toy pogo stick doesn't have that.
This is gonna get you high.
(crickets chirping)
Can we? Should we?
- High up.
- It's gonna get you high up.
- This thing is accessible for younger people
but it's very dangerous.
So padding, helmets for sure.
Knee pads.
Elbow pads.
I think you can have fun with this
even if you weren't a pro.
But it's not a toy.
I don't think like young children
should really be playing with this.
It's pretty dangerous.
- Yeah, this is like a kids toy on steroids.
- It's a good way to say it.
- Man, the kids old Furby.
God, these things were annoying.
- Yeah, come at me bro.
(metal music)
Yo, come at me bro. Bro.
- I'll take that very fashionable diamond patterned one.
- [Jon] Love it.
- Here it is.
Quite large.
(rattling)
What do you think it is?
- Something dangerous.
- Definitely.
- Oh, yeah! - Yeah.
This one's illegal.
Lawn darts!
- Whoa, I've never actually held these.
I've only heard about these.
- Yeah, everybody has heard about these.
- There's like urban legends about lawn darts.
- Supposedly these have killed people.
Is that really true?
- I don't know if that's true but I can see it.
- I don't know.
It looks kind of fun to me.
- It does look fun with proper supervision.
(clacking)
Wow all right, these are solid and sharp.
- Yes.
- Obviously very dangerous.
Another name for these is Javelin Darts.
- I don't think kids usually should
be playing with javelins.
- You can see why they were banned twice here in America.
- Yeah, we found and old set online somewhere.
- Basically the way you play lawn darts is
you throw these up
and gravity pulls them back down onto a target.
Just throwing around sharp objects.
- Sharp objects.
So obviously these are pretty unsafe.
- Yeah, it makes me wonder what other ideas
this inventor came up with.
- I call it scissors tag.
I call it kick the candle.
I call it asbestos bean bags.
(coughing)
I call it electric red rover.
I call it plastic bag hide and seek.
Here we go.
(upbeat music)
- Spin move.
- They call me Spinbad.
Wow, I don't know what this is.
Okay, we got a wallet here.
- No, well yeah.
It is a wallet Jon,
but it's not just a wallet okay?
- Okay, I feel like it's gonna explode.
Is it like a James Bond wallet?
- It is the pyro wallet.
- Yeah.
- Let's say you're at a party, whatever.
- Okay.
- You want to give somebody your business card.
- Yeah.
- Pull it out and.
- Whoa, whoa, that whoa.
- Yeah. - That was on fire.
- Here is my business card.
- Wow, and it's actually like not burned up.
You would definitely not be forgotten
if you handed somebody a flaming business card.
They would remember you.
- And you could do other things.
You could do cash you know.
It would be like a fun way to pay at the gas station.
I'll take a pack of gum please.
- You're definitely James Bond.
- Keep the flames.
- So how does it work?
- All right, so you pre soak the cards
in highly flammable liquid.
And then you slip it into the plastic sleeve
that keeps it from getting all over your other contents
in your wallet.
- Okay.
- And then when you pull it out,
there's this little arc lighter
that you push a button.
Pretty cool.
- I don't know if it's cool.
I could feel that flame.
- It's very warm.
- I just wonder what kind of person
is actually using this.
- Could you blow it out please?
I can't spare the oxygen.
- All right, well check out these toys and--
- Not these toys.
- Not those toys.
But lots of toys and hundreds
of other curiously awesome gifts at www.vat19.com
- No sir, your real name.
- Ah, Phil Brown.
Sorry that was weird.
- How are we supposed to produce enough energy
to overcome gravity?
(laughs)
- Did you just call me babe?
- Babe.
- Listen babe?
(laughs)
