Takis Fuego to be exact.
And for the next 30 days,
I'm gonna have to survive off this single Taki.
Here are the rules.
Rule number one, I can't eat anything else
besides this one Taki.
Unless I can convince someone to trade me for more Takis.
Excuse me, I was wondering,
would you be down to trade your bag of Takis
for my single Taki?
Rule number two, I can't drink anything.
And rule number three, I can't break rules one and two.
All right, all right. I'll follow the rules.
I should also add, I'm a trained professional,
so do not attempt this.
So mom, I'm coming to you because I need some moral support
and words of encouragement.
- For what?
- Well, for the next 30 days,
I'm gonna be surviving off this sing-
Off this single Taki.
- Why?
- For views.
- How are you gonna survive? You need food.
- Well, that's why I need your words of encouragement.
- You're literally going to die.
- And there it was.
The motivation I was looking for
from none other than my mom.
She doesn't think I can make it.
And according to Google,
they don't think I can make it either.
But are Google and my mom right?
Or are they just my biggest haters?
So I'm about six hours into the challenge so far
and I feel pretty good.
Okay, maybe I'm a little hungry,
but the good thing is, I only have to do this
for 29 more days.
You know what?
Maybe my mom was right, this was a stupid idea.
Okay, so it's been about two days
since I've had something to eat or drink,
so I need to find someone to trade with me.
AKA, retail arbitrage.
Hi, excuse me, sir.
I was wondering, would you be down to trade
my single Taki for one of your bags?
- Why would I do that?
- Well, I'm doing a challenge
where I'm trying to survive off this single Taki
for 30 days.
- Get out of here, man.
I'm serious, get out of my store!
Okay, so that didn't really go as planned,
so I guess I have to find other people to trade with now.
- What are you still doing here?
I told you to leave or I'm gonna call the cops.
- Okay, okay, I'm leaving.
- You too, get out of here.
- There's a kid over there with a bag of Takis.
I'm gonna go over there and ask him if he's down to trade.
Excuse me, I was wondering,
would you be down to trade your bag of Takis
for my single Taki?
I know it sounds weird but I'm trying to do a challenge-
- Stranger danger!
Stranger danger!
- No, no, no! - Stranger danger!
- No, no, no, no, I'm just trying to trade Takis, that's it.
I'm not trying to do anything else.
- My mom said to always defend myself.
- What do you mean?
Oh my God, why did you pepper spray me?
Oh my God, it burns.
Oh my God, ah.
Okay.
Change of plans.
We're just gonna stick with this single Taki
for the rest of the days.
Stupid kid.
Since my single Taki had to keep me alive
for 28 more days,
I had the brilliant idea of sniffing the Taki
to acquire its nutrients. (Anthony sneezes)
And that did absolutely nothing.
On day four and five, I took it a step further
and began licking my Taki.
And I'm really happy to report that
it also did absolutely nothing.
On day six, I finally took my first nibble.
On day seven, I took another nibble.
On day eight, I did not take a nibble,
I just stared at it.
Until I took another nibble.
And then, to distract me from my hunger,
I violently screamed for four days straight.
(Anthony screams)
But on day 13, that's when the hunger and thirst
hit me like a freight train,
and I became delusional.
Is that a bag of Hot Cheetohs you have in my city, boy?
I desperately needed help, but from who?
A therapist? A nutritionist?
My mom?
No, all of those people would be useless for my mission.
I needed someone that could relate.
None other than the man, the myth, the legend, Frank.
- [Frank] Hello?
How many times do I have to tell you
to stop calling about my car's extended warranty?
How about you extend these-
- [Anthony] After spending three hours convincing Frank
that I was not a telemarketer,
he finally agreed to meet me in person.
Frank?
- Oh, hey.
Thank you so much for helping me out.
It truly means a lot.
Do you mind if I record our interaction?
- Actually yeah, I do mind.
- [Anthony] Oh, what if I gave you five dollars?
- Make it six and then you can film.
- I have to say, I'm a huge fan of your work.
Thank you again for helping me out.
- Oh no, the pleasure is all mine.
So let me get this straight,
you've been surviving off a single Taki for 15 days so far?
What's the point?
- For the views.
- Interesting.
And what do you need from me?
- Well, I pretty much need your help
to survive these last 15 days.
- I think I can help.
- And boy, did Frank do just that.
The next couple of days, Frank showed me different ways
to get my mind off my decaying body.
And surprisingly, his techniques actually worked.
But I began to realize this wouldn't be enough.
And if I wanted to survive,
I had to ask Frank the big question.
Frank, I have an important question to ask you.
- Okay, what is it?
- Here I was,
about to ask Frank a question
that was going to make or break our friendship,
and determine if I could accomplish this challenge.
And let me tell you, I was nervous.
Do you like pineapples on your pizza?
- Yeah, I think they're okay.
- Thank God. I've been meaning to ask you since I met you.
But I do have one more question I wanted to ask you.
Would you be willing to trade my half Taki
for your whole bag of Takis?
- You know, Anthony?
When you first told me what you were doing,
I thought you were insane.
But now, I'm realizing that you're just a man
committed to a cause,
and someone that would do anything to succeed.
And that right there is admirable.
So I accept your offer.
- And there it was. Exactly what I needed.
Someone that was finally willing to trade with me.
All those days of starvation, all that suffering,
all the doubt leading to this very moment.
A moment that makes the pain I went through,
the delusions, the mental exhaustion worth it,
because my friend Frank showed me
not only how to survive,
but what love and compassion really looks like.
Frank, I can't thank you enough.
I'm finally gonna be able to complete the challenge-
Wait.
The bag's empty.
- You asked me to trade your single Taki for my bag.
You never said I had to include the Takis.
- So yeah, Frank played me.
And if you're wondering if I made it to day 30,
no I did not.
I couldn't handle the starvation.
So all of this was for nothing.
But I did learn one thing.
