(Keith laughing)
(Keith continues laughing) (bright music)
- Whoa!
- Spaghetti, spaghetti!
We got spaghetti.
(Ned groans)
- (groans) Oh.
- I think that's a spaghetti pool.
- I think it's ready.
- It's more of a spaghetti tub.
(upbeat music)
- Giant pool of pasta.
We're doing it.
This is kinda how we're thinking of it, right?
You're over here, you're over here,
you're boiling, batter up, and then, bam, in.
- Wow. - Scoop it in. Scoop it in.
Yeah, see? See?
He loves it.
- So this has been a lifelong dream of yours.
- I think it's a lifelong dream of everyone's.
- Is it not?
- Well, I'm just, I'm trying to reconcile
with the fact that you've just mentioned this today.
- Sometimes, you're afraid of your own dreams
that you don't talk about them.
- How long have you guys been scheming
and planning this before we found out?
- (laughs) Years.
- Years.
- How big's the pool?
- Great question.
Let's get into that.
Okay, so. - Okay.
- We got a hot tub. - Right.
- You already got the hot tub?
- We got the hot tub.
It's dirty.
Alexandria, it's filthy.
- I still am not following actually how much spaghetti
we need to get you to cook.
- Oh, yeah, this is a used hot tub.
- (laughs) It's a little gross.
- Nasty.
Also, can we talk about the irregular dimensions here?
- How are we gonna figure this out?
- [Ned] All right, let's get into it.
♪ Let's do it ♪
♪ Come on ♪
(upbeat music)
- Five squared is 25, times 3.14 is roughly...
- [Keith] How is that 640 inches?
This- - Cubic inches.
- This is 640 cubic?
Length. - Length.
Width. - Width.
- [Both] Depth.
- Yeah, okay, that's volume.
- Length times width times depth.
- How many bottles of soda?
- Well, if a two liter bottle of soda is two liters?
- Depth. - Depth.
- Depth.
- Depth. Depth.
- Depth. - 0.692.
That can't be right.
Ned, I'm already kinda lost, if I'm being honest.
(beeping)
- So we wanna swim in a pool of spaghetti,
and we figured we'd come to the expert,
because we kinda thought about how we'd do that,
and then we realized, we don't know how to do that.
How- - How do you do that?
- I have a lot of questions.
I'm gonna start there.
It'll be interesting to see if you could actually
even just submerse yourself.
'Cause I've done like big ol' Orbeez pools
like you kind of jump in and you go up to here.
You probably will need to add water.
I'll say that.
Like if it's just cooked noodles,
I think that's gonna be more analogous to like-
- Oh, dang. - Falling on a thing of rocks.
And so, are we talking pool, are we talking a hot tub?
What are we talking here? Ocean?
- Man, I would love to do a whole Lake Michigan worth
of spaghetti. - It seems like-
- But I think we'll be able to do a hot tub.
How do we figure out what the volume of like,
one serving of pasta is?
- Truly, what I would do here is boil three packages
and see how much of a pot that fills up.
- You guys ever played lacrosse?
- This is pomegranate lacrosse.
Oh. (both laughing)
Oh no. (laughs)
- And then you calculate that volume,
and then divide your total volume by that pot.
- Oh, it's heavy. - And then,
divide by a number of packages,
and that'll tell you how many packages you need.
- Oh! Crap.
Dang it. (Keith laughing)
- Inconclusive.
- Do we have (laughs).
- We get to call this science, but it truly is quite fun.
- Yeah, this is science.
Are you answering questions
that haven't been answered before?
That's science.
You guys are answering the important ones.
- Look at this dude.
His name would be Tucker.
Now, guys, you guys want some pasta?
Ow, ow, ow.
- Ow.
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.
(pasta squelching)
Yeah, uh, uh.
- They retain heat pretty well.
Okay, so that's about-
- Just under one half. - About five and a half liters
from four boxes of pasta.
So 1,230 divided by 5.5 equals 223 rounds-
- Of four packages. - Of four boxes.
- [Both] About 1,000 pounds.
- About 1,000 pounds.
That's not so bad. - About 1,000 pounds.
- [Keith] That's not so bad.
- Holy crap. Math.
And also, for every pound of pasta we use to make this pool,
we will be donating to #TeamSeas,
an organization that will eliminate one pound
of trash from the ocean for every $1 raised.
- Ooh, ooh.
Oh, we have a question in the back.
Is this the best idea ever?
- Wow, so glad you asked that.
Yes.
(bright music) - Ah, wow.
I'm excited to do this.
I don't know about you, fellow producers.
- Mm-hmm.
- In two days from now, we are gonna attack this
with gusto, we're gonna fill up a pot
with a bunch of pasta, we're gonna put some oil
in that pasta and then we're gonna stick
our gross little bodies in there.
- Mm-hmm.
- [Nick] We're shooting this tomorrow.
- We're shooting this tomorrow?
- Okay, so that's our plan.
Any questions?
- Yeah, I mean, how do we get this time-
(all talking over each other)
(Zach imitates nails screeching)
(dramatic music)
- Y'all know me.
Know how I earn a living.
I'll catch this bird for you. (crunches dry pasta)
But it isn't gonna be easy.
- [Both] Zach Kornfeld?
- Boys.
We're gonna need a bigger bucket. (crunches dry pasta)
(upbeat adventure music)
- All right, it's time to get serious.
In here, we have 64 pounds of pasta,
which should be enough for about one bucket.
We estimated we need 12 times this amount.
(beeping)
So we sent out 12 runners to 12 different stores,
and they're gonna get us 12 times this amount.
- Okay, make a giant pool of pasta
to save the ocean on three.
One, two, three.
- [All] Make a giant pool of pasta to save the ocean!
- All right, let's go.
- Okay, we're gonna need, should we bring all these out
in this bucket?
♪ Get a bucket ♪ - Very nice.
- When you put it in the pot, like make the biggest pot
of it as you can.
The larger that pot can be, the better off you are.
- Oh, you're gonna hit that knee.
Oh, you're gonna hit that corner.
Okay, oh, there it is. (metallic banging)
Yep, there you go.
- So this is what we did with the Jell-O pool.
We got some 55-gallon drums, we put a little burner
underneath it, just like a propane stove, basically.
- Where is a hose?
Do we have a hose?
Where's a hose?
- Anyway, it seems like a lot of bugs died in here,
so I'm just sort of scraping out bugs,
and trying to make this a food-safe container for us.
- It looks unclean.
- I'm working, Zach, look at me.
I got this rag and this, look.
- You're going from raw pasta, so you actually
have to boil this, right?
- All right, let's test it.
(propane hisses) Yep.
Did you hear that? (propane hisses)
- [Zach] Are you blowing gas into your face?
- No.
It's for educational purposes.
- Hell, yeah. - Whoa.
- You could just use this.
- Whoa. (laughs)
So far, the fixture that we have is not gonna fit
into the hole. - Uh-oh.
That's an actual problem.
- That's an actual problem.
Maybe we could boil it on our stove inside.
It's a long transfer.
- You think, I don't know that-
- Let's try it, let's try it.
- This thing?
- [Keith] You're gonna put it on all the burners?
- All right. - I will turn on
all the burners. - Here we go.
And these are all on.
I mean, something's, it's happening.
- It smells hot in here.
You know the smell of like hot?
You know what I mean, right?
- You start four pots at once.
- Okay.
- I'll go back to the hardware store.
- Okay.
- Ready.
- [All] Pasta.
- Bye, Ned. - Are we gonna eat it?
- The impasta-bowl is nothing!
I'm going to Lowe's.
And we're gonna get that piece that we need.
(water splashes)
- Yes, wow, it's really, barely, when you look at it,
you think there's not enough water in there.
But we're slowly getting a little bit in at a time.
- Salt raises the boiling temperature of water.
- [Zach] It lowers it.
That's the whole point.
- That's not the point.
It's for flavor.
- Oh. (beeps)
The opposite of what I wanted.
- I'm at Lowe's, and God, there are a lot of options.
- Oh, boy.
Never gonna get these noodles cooked.
- I think it's something like this?
Shoot, shoot, shoot.
- Look at all that. (electronic beeping)
Guys, it's happening.
- That's just evaporation.
There's not enough water for it to boil.
- All right, so I got a bunch of different options,
but I think they're sold out of what we actually need.
So I don't know what to do now.
- Why is this not on?
What are we doing here?
- I'm not certain that this is gonna work.
Are these even on?
- Did they get salt- - Anymore?
They don't look red.
Did we blow a fuse?
How do, where?
- I might've tripped it.
- Where's the fuse box?
- [Keith] The fuse box is the one
with the pretty painting of bodies on it.
- Oh, right.
Oh my God, there's so many options.
- Yeah,
there's a lot of options. - Hey, I found one.
- [Keith] Honestly, it should just be the one that's tripped
to the wrong position. - Yeah, I did it.
- Okay. You did it? - Yeah.
(suspenseful music) - Yeah.
You got it, bro!
We have about three hours of sunlight left,
and no noodles.
We need to make 940 pounds of noodles,
and this thing can only crank out 75 pounds every half hour.
(suspenseful music)
- How much do you think it's gonna cost
for somebody to boil pasta for us?
- I don't know.
How much does a plate of spaghetti cost at a place?
Five bucks?

Oh my God, it's so slippery.
Oh, and it's warm at the bottom.
- Ooh, there's warm at the bottom, though,
'cause it wasn't exposed to the air.
- [Ned] This is actually really cool.
- I think this is on a pool of spaghetti.
It might have been an individual pursuit,
going just as we planned.

- How do I get my booty in?

There you go. (Ned grunts)
There you go.

- I just found the hottest pocket.
(angelic singing)
- There's some hot ones in here.
- Hot pockets. - Well, probably
all the boiling water went to the bottom.
Oh, guys.
- [Zach] Honestly, we could've made this a lot shallower
'cause we are not getting deep.
- Oh wow.
Wait, this is amazing.
- Is it like the world's greatest weighted blanket?
- It's the world's greatest weighted blanket.
It feels so warm and safe.
- Now you dig in. - Ah.
Okay. (kids laughing)

weight everywhere. - Oh, yeah.

probably watching my dad sensually cover himself
with noodles in the pool.
Oh, wow. Oh, wow.

I wish I were lower, but it doesn't really matter.
- No. - No, I'll cover you,
I'll make you lower. - Yeah. (grunts)
