- Today we go selfie to selfie.
- Let's talk about that.
(upbeat electronic music)
"Good Mythical Morning".
- Mythical beasts, your questions
are like an old disposable camera you find
from a friend of a friend's wedding reception,
and we have the developmental processes
to turn your question film
into embarrassing picture answers.
- Let's do that, we asked you
to ask us photography advice questions
on the Facebook, the Twitter- - Of course we did.
- And the Tumblr.
Joey Smeets asks, "What's the best face
to make on a selfie?"
I wish there were a simple answer to this, Joey Smeets,
but there's not because different situations
call for different selfie faces.
So the real answer is being able to develop
your own ability to make the proper selfie face
at the proper selfie time.
- Right.
- So we have teed up a game that we are gonna play
that's gonna help you help yourself
with the perfect selfie.
It's "Self Freeze"!
- Okay, this is pretty simple,
we each have a phone that can take a selfie.
We're gonna see a picture pop up in front of us
and then we are going to try to mimic that picture
and then Drew is going to tell us who did a better job.
- Mhmm, because this is important.
- It is.
- Are your facial muscles limbered?
- I don't have many facial muscles,
I'm a little worried.
- I know, well, I knew that,
I'm sorry that I had to point it out for everyone.
- [Drew] Okay, guys.
- Yes.
- [Drew] Here's the first picture.
- That's a good looking person.
I'm not even in selfie mode yet, hold on.
(cheerful music)
- Okay, I got mine.
- Got mine. Alright.
- [Rhett] Oh, God. Look at that.
- [Link] Look, I got the skin 'stache.
You've got a cheek stache.
- I don't have that part of the face.
- What part?
- I don't have the part of the face-
- The skin 'stache part?
- The cheek part. I don't have cheek.
- You have no upper lip and I have no lower lip.
The dude has both upper and lower lips.
- And I am looking at the camera
and my eyebrow part, with the bottom part of the eyes
put up like that, that's pretty good.
- I was looking at the button to push the selfie,
I forgot I could use my thumb without looking down.
So that's what messed me up.
- Right, Drew,
you're gonna have to make a decision over here.
- [Drew] Well, you guys are kind of split on the lips.
Rhett's got the crazy eyes,
but Link's got that skin 'stache
and that's the most important part of the picture,
Link, it's yours.
- Yes! Okay. - Okay, alright.
Round one to Link.
Alright, next picture.
- Oh, goodness!
(whimsical music)
Gosh, I can't quite achieve it.
- [Rhett] Whoa, I think I hurt something.
- Alright, got it. (laughs)
I'll acknowledge that I have an advantage
'cause I don't have a beard, and that's where
a lot of the action's happening in this one.
- Yeah, there's a lot of stuff happening under my beard
you just can't, it's covered, man.
- And plus, if you focus on my forehead
you can convince yourself that I'm bald like this guy
so there's a lot in my favor
just by the way that I'm just naturally built, sadly.
- [Rhett] Okay, Drew, who's the winner?
- [Drew] It's gotta be Link.
I mean, he's got the neck fat rolls and everything.
- Hey!
- I mean, no offense. - Should I be
taking this personal
or should I be happy about this?
- You should be happy, man,
you're winning! - I'm happy.
- You're winning! - I'm happy
that I can look just like that guy, alright.
- Alright.
Oh, okay, whoa.
- Oh, is this?
- This is that sexy gorilla from Japan, I think.
The one that all the ladies like.
- The ladies like?
- I can see why.
- Okay, this is...
Ooh, you gotta go real profile here.
Get the shoulder in it.
- You've gotta take it with another-
- I know, and this, you better get that shoulder.
Got it.
You getting it?
Oh, you working it hard, man.
Come on. Alright.
See the results.
Well, we got the angles down.
We both got the shoulder working.
- I just don't feel like you look mean enough.
I mean, that's a gorilla, man.
- I don't look gorilla sexy enough?
I got a lot more lip working than you do.
- But you did a good impression of a fish.
I'm scared of that gorilla.
- I can't say that I'm scared of you.
You look kind of suspicious of a gorilla.
Like, are you looking sexy at me, gorilla?
- [Rhett] I feel like I got the brow though.
I mean, he's got that big brow,
it's protruding a little bit.
- Yeah, I don't got much gorilla game.
I should've taken my shirt off.
Drew?
- [Drew] Thank you for keeping your shirt on.
- [Link] You're welcome.
- [Drew] It's gotta go to Rhett.
- Rhett the sexy gorilla!
- Okay, I'll take it.
- That's what your mom called you in high school.
- That's not true.
- Oh!
- Oh, okay.
- Is that George Clooney?
Oh, this is, okay.
Again, we got the shoulder thing happening.
This is, there's a lot of layers to this.
I'm trying to get real detailed here.
- I feel pretty good about this.
Okay, I got it.
- Alright, I got mine.
- [Rhett] Oh God! (laughs)
- [Link] First of all, my face looks good.
- First of all, my face looks good!
- I look smart.
- [Rhett] I don't know here.
The mouth is very difficult to judge
'cause I got a lot of hair covering the mouth area,
but I do have that cheek up.
- But here's the thing that you don't have.
You don't have the cheek shoulder interaction
that is necessary to pull off this Clooney.
- It's about the face though,
it's not about the shoulder, man.
- No, but-
- The shoulder is secondary.
Focus on the face, man.
- The shoulder is pushing his face.
- [Rhett] Look at my cheek, I really worked that cheek
'cause the cheek is so specific on this one.
- My right cheek is not going up far enough
but your shoulder's not coming up nearly far enough.
I think you, I don't know-
- I think shoulder is secondary,
Drew, what do you think?
- [Drew] I think it's gonna have to go to Link.
I mean, you look at the Clooney,
he's goofy looking.
Link's just screams goofy.
Rhett, you got some good points.
- It's okay, you don't have to try to make me feel better.
- Yeah, Rhett-
- Let's just move on.
- You look like you're struggling a little bit,
I look very confidently goofy.
- I was hoping I would get Clooney
but, you know, what can you do?
- Ooh, there she is!
- Again with the neck thing.
- Is this morphed?
You can't morph it in post, guys.
It's not?
I'm being told it's not silently.
- Challenge number one is showing my teeth.
I really gotta, I really gotta go.
- So it's kind of dead on.
- I can't show my teeth.
My teeth don't come out!
My teeth don't come out to play, ever!
- Your top teeth, you can't get your top teeth to come out?
- That's all I got.
But then when I raise my eyebrows, they go away.
I have to make a choice.
- Got it. (gulps)
Oh man, that one was actually painful.
Bug your eyes, man.
You gotta bug, there you go. Alright.
- I always have a very strained feeling
after I finish this, like I-
- Let's take a look. - Like I caused a hemorrhoid.
- Okay. - Again,
my teeth are hiding, man.
- [Link] You can't even get teeth out!
- No, watch. Just watch.
So if I get my teeth out,
and then when I raise my eyebrows, watch.
- The teeth go away! - They go away!
- Can't you roll it under like this?
- My body, a lot of the skill
that was supposed to be in the face
was just put other parts to my body.
- Which shall remain nameless.
- And it was all left out of the face,
I don't have any facial skill.
- Alright, let me see it again.
Alright, so check this out.
I worked pretty hard at this.
- [Rhett] You got the teeth thing.
- I got the buggy eyes.
I mean, you can normally nail buggy eyes
but you were handicapped
by trying to get the teeth out.
I look like one of my cousins
that would show up at the family reunion
and be like, are you- - Hey, man!
Hey, look, I'm back!
- No offense to my cousins,
I know you're probably watching
but y'all make faces like this all the time.
You think it's funny.
It's like, this is a resting Neil face here.
- Oh, real, wow. - That's the sad reality.
- [Rhett] Getting real personal on this one.
- The lip curls.
- Do they watch the show? - The chin goes down
and the eyes get big,
that's just at rest, watching "Jeopardy".
- But I look more like this woman than you do.
- In general? Yeah. - You know?
That could be my sister.
- [Link] Yep. She could be-
- [Rhett] Do I get points for that?
- [Link] She could be at your family reunion.
- Okay, Drew, what do you think?
- [Drew] Well, Link's got the eyes,
he's got the lip curl, he's got the neck rolls.
I think it's gonna be Link.
- Yeah, he does, okay.
- I'm breaking those out.
- Alright. - At all times.
- Another round to Link.
- You'd think I'd take more selfies
with how good I am with the facial muscles.
- Right, you have a lot of facial skill.
Totally going to waste.
- Who is this jerk?
- Tennis- - Is he a soccer player?
- Soccer, maybe tennis?
- That'd probably be tennis, lacrosse?
I'm sure he's not a jerk.
I'm sure he's watching.
I'm sure I'm making this worse
by continuing to talk about it.
Whoa, you're already going under?
Okay.
Oh, I need a blow dryer!
- Again with the teeth.
- We need a blow dryer to blow on our mouth.
Drew, can you blow hot air into my mouth?
Don't, actually.
Okay, so the teeth are together.
He doesn't wear glasses.
Okay.
Done my best, this is a tough one.
Oh, you're fish hooking it!
You're...
Okay, you're fish hooking it!
- I mean, you can see my teeth,
which is really unusual.
I had to grab my own lips and pull it back
in order for you to see them.
And look at my nose.
- Oh wow. - Look at the nose action.
I mean, look at the nose,
it's hooking back and everything.
- Now, I did go hands free which,
I should get points for that, right?
- Dude, I got this one, man.
I got this one, you got neck roll
that he doesn't even have,
you added neck roll to this one!
- [Link] I'm instinctively adding neck roll
where it's not needed.
- And you know what?
I have a headband just like that,
I wear it as soon as I leave here every day.
- Drew?
- [Drew] Yeah, it's gotta go to Rhett.
He's got the teeth, the eyes are both looking up,
almost exactly the same, it's Rhett.
- Yeah, I'll gladly relinquish this one.
- Woo!
- I hope your nose doesn't stick like that.
- It's already straightening out a little bit.
- It's still moving over.
- Okay, time for the Glass Face Bonus Round!
- Alright, I'm winning four to two,
but it's anybody's game
because each of these is worth two points.
- Little bit different, we have a piece of glass
and we're gonna be looking
at pictures of people
who have put their faces against glass,
trying to emulate them quickly
and then Drew will tell us who won that round
and we'll move through with them, lightning speed!
- Alright.
Now, don't lightning your face through this
'cause it is glass.
- Yes, it is glass.
- [Link] Alright.
- [Drew] Alright, you guys ready?
- Yes. - Three, two, one.
- Oh!
(tense music)
Oh, goodness. This is hard.
- [Drew] Link.
- Ha ha!
- I just put a lot of stuff on this glass!
Alright, keep going.
- Oh! - Good moly!
- [Drew] Rhett. (glass cracking)
- Oh! - Oh, my gosh!
That didn't cut me, but it scared the crap outta me.
- Hold on, is that, your tongue broke it?
- No, it broke in my hands
'cause I'm like the Hulk!
Oh my gosh!
That scared of the crap outta me.
- How did it happen?
- You remember that part
where I said don't push too hard 'cause it's glass?
- Let's keep going, man!
- Alright, I'm not gonna push that hard anymore.
- You can stop if you want.
- Oh, I'm not gonna quit.
But I'm not gonna push that hard on the glass.
Like, breaking glass on my face!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- That's pretty cool, right?
- Slowly, slowly breaking it.
- I was like, gah!
Alright, let's keep going.
- Okay.
- I'm really nervous now, but-
- Teeth.
- [Link] Man.
- [Drew] Link.
- Oh, gosh, yeah, I can't-
- I got the pity, ooh, the dog.
- [Drew] Rhett.
- Link.
- Alright.
That was it?
- [Drew] That's it.
Congratulations, Link.
You are the winner.
- You took it home, Link.
- And I could've lost a tongue!
- [Drew] You win the "Good Mythical Morning" Selfie Hat.
- Yes!
- Yes, we will adorn you with that in "Good Mythical More"

- The guy?

- Oh look, we're good, we got practice at this.
- Turn this way.
No.
- Are you trying to be funny

Sometimes I don't know.

don't talk about how stupid I am.
