- [Chrissy] The clock has striketh midnight.
- Get the (beeps) out of there.
(cheers and applauds)
- [Woman] Faster, faster, faster!
(sparkly music)
(slurps)
- Okay, wait, wait, wait, Cinderella is at a ball.
She's wearing glass slippers on a giant (beeps) night out
and she's just like ya, this seems like a chill decision
for my first outfit to meet a man.
Like a potential suitor (husband)
and she's like with a guy she met one time
and then she's like (beeps) dudes, I gotta go.
She starts like running down those set of stairs
and it's not like two steps,
this is like a grand (beeps) stair case.
And then she's like, oh (beeps), oh (beeps)oh (beeps),
and then somehow one of the shoes (beeps) falls off
and then dude chases her and then all his like minion people
also chase after her.
- [Selorm] Like with like horses and stuff.
- Yeah like he sent a full (beeps) fleet.
How do you run on glass full speed
with a heel and on stairs and in a giant (beeps) dress.
I think that you should do it.
- I think that there's a 80% chance
that I will probably die.
- You could bleed to death, or tumble down stairs.
Like we forget about stair deaths.
- It kills people more than shark deaths.
I read that somewhere.
But that sounds like a great idea.
- Make sure you get a pedicure,
'cause everyone can see in there.
(slurps) (sparkly music)
Hello.
- Hi.
- I was googs'in on the internet
and your Cinderella slipper article appeared and explained
everything about it.
- Turns out that it's an interesting
mechanical engineering problem.
- Do you think glass heels can hold the weight
of a human?
- The stress under which glass would crush
is much higher than what a regular typical human
standing on it would put on it.
You would certainly be okay standing on glass shoes.
- But also Cinderella's like running in these shoes.
- The heels are the weak part of the shoe.
If you're running too fast
then the heel could potentially chip or break.
(screams)
- So why did Cinderella do this?
- Did she have a choice?
- Mm, no.
- I think the fairy godmother just.
- She (beeps) her up.
- Yeah.
- Do you think we can do this?
- I think it is possible, we just have to make sure
that you step properly and do not stress the shoes too much.
- Alright, we're gonna go make some glass heels now.
- Yeah, best of luck.
And I think you should be fine.
(laughs)
I like that, it's different.
(sparkly music)
- Surprise, we're in Dallas.
(upbeat music)
(rock music)
Hi.
- Hi there, my name is Aron Tate I'm a glass maker here
in Dallas, Texas.
- Oh, have you seen Cinderella?
- I have indeed.
- How do you feel about the scene
where she runs down some stairs
in some glass heels?
- I feel that it is not quite possible.
- So you think that like the fairy godmother
was like full of (beeps).
- Not full of (beeps) but, apart from the possibility
of it breaking I think that it is more impractical
because of its immobility.
- Cinderella, she doesn't have much, you know.
She has no cute outfits, she has no cute shoes,
and then they put her up in like some glass heels.
- Very uncomfortable.
- Even when she's in her highest moment,
they still bring her down.
We have to make glass heels that will fit Selorm.
Are there any like safety precautions
that we should take since it's like piping hot glass?
- Yes, there's a few of them.
Eye protection, no open toed shoes,
in spite of my example,
- You literally just said, - what are you doing?
- Well I, and then just be cautious what you touch.
Some things can be hot.
- Can we help?
- Yeah.
- Alright, so what are we doing right now?
- I am giving this standard blow pipe
a little bit of an extra heat.
- This is so hot.
- Making glass.
- Oh, it's time for your cool tiny sunglasses.
Yeah. - Oh.
- Alright so here's our first gather.
- [Chrissy] Wow.
- And there's a bit of glass.
I pressurize the pipe and I'm holding that pressure
with my left thumb.
- It looks so beautiful,
it looks like a bottle of Ciroc actually.
(laughs)
- Gather that glass.
- [Selorm] Yeah gather it.
- Here's a neat thing I can show, I'll dribble some off
so you can see how fluid the glass is.
- [Selorm] What? - [Chrissy] Wow.
- Turn turn turn.
- Tiny hand movements.
Tiny, tiny, hand movements.
- Alright so if one of you would care to have a seat
on the blue box and prepare, steady, smooth, gentle,
err on the side of caution.
- You blew that out of the park.
Ha, ha, ha, ha. - Ha, ha, ha.
- So now I'm gonna lengthen the bubble
and begin to shape it so here I'm beginning the neck line.
- This is like Edward Scissorhands.
- Your lipstick is all over.
- Oops.
Oh yeah, follow it.
- [Aron] And stop. - [Chrissy] You got this.
Stop.
- Hey Chrissy, we basically kissed now.
- So our volume and diameter's better now
and also I have these torches.
Alright I'm thinking this looks good, so.
(cheers)
- Now I'm gonna heat it up and squish it
on our shape.
- I think Aron is a fairy godmother
and he doesn't even know it.
- Now, I think is the time to pop a hole in it.
- Oh, oh, he's making a shoe in front of our eyes.
Oh, what, he's cutting glass.
That's so cool.
- Blow, stop
and lift up.
- [Chrissy] Oh look at that stiletto.
Yeah.
- One of you can break it off?
(yells)
K, hit the rod a little bit, right back there, yup.
- Okay.
Oh.
- And then into the oven it must go.
The oven is at 900 and a little bit degrees.
- [Chrissy] There she goes.
- There she goes.
Yay.
Oh my god, group hug.
- Good job everybody.
(sparkly music)
- Oh my god we just got back from Dallas.
- It was great.
So the shoes had to cool overnight
so they got sent to us and now we're gonna see them today.
There was no way for us to know if these were gonna fit me
or not so today's the day we're gonna find out.
- Yeah, you can't put your foot in like melted glass.
- I have really big feet so,
- No they're size nine, that's not even big.
(gasps)
- [Chrissy] You look,
so beautiful, magical and perfect.
- You're in my seat.
Go on. - Uh-oh.
You're fine.
- That's right.
- Wow are you ready for this?
- It's foot time.
- Okay, well.
(laughs)
Alright, here they are,
your custom Cinderella glass slippers.
(gasps)
- Oh. - Oh my god.
Even has the little like thingy-jingy.
- [Selorm] Little thingy jingy right, in the movie.
- Yeah, it's like a loafer meets a heel,
this is a thick (beeps) heel dude.
This is thicc.
This is like really taking our friendship to the next level
because I'm about to shoe you.
- They're my size, they should fit right?
- Yeah, they're custom made to you
but I'm stressed.
- [Selorm] Me too.
- Okay, this reminds me of when I worked
at JC Penney in the shoe department in high school.
- Oh god, don't go back to those days.
Oh.
Wait a minute, I'm like in guys,
I'm in the shoe.
- [Chrissy] But you're not in it.
- Push a little bit more.
- You don't fit.
- Just push a little bit more.
You put it down on the ground I can,
just put it on the ground, just, I can, ow, ow.
- Look at your (beeps) foot.
(laughs)
Let's try the right foot.
- [Selorm] Okay.
- [Chrissy] You ready for this?
- Ready, I gotta go in the other way.
I see, I see the system now.
(squeals)
- I don't think you can do this experiment Selorm,
- We can just shave it off, I have a nail file.
- You want to shave off your (beeps) foot?
- No not my foot, this one almost fit.
You gotta push the meat in.
Wait wait.
- Look at me, look at me.
We need to find somebody else.
- But I'm the princess.
- I know you really are, but your foot doesn't fit
and this is for science.
Okay?
- Okay.
- Come on, take it off.
- Okay.
- We gotta find someone in the office or something.
- You think we can find someone else
that can fit into your little shoe?
- No.
- Hi, we need someone to fit into this shoe.
- Oh my goodness.
Okay.
- Careful, no, go run, out.
(laughs)
next.
- You didn't even let me put my foot in.
- [Chrissy] Be careful.
- Here's no way, I have duck feet.
I can't wear pumas.
- I have pretty small feet for a man I think.
- [Chrissy] Gentle. - [Selorm] Gentle.
Push.
Nope.
Bye.
- Thank you for trying but this is my dress.
- She got two toes in, we got two toes.
Very careful and if you feel like its not going in
just don't fight it.
- I don't know, no one's ever told me if it feels
like it's not going in don't, (laughs).
I think I gotta go in sideways.
- [Selorm] Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
No princesses at Buzzfeed.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
- [Chrissy] My god Jenn.
- Hi.
- What tiny feet you have.
- It's true, I do have very small feet.
- What size shoe are you?
- I'm a size five.
(gasps)
- [Selorm] Put on the shoe.
- [Chrissy] Delicately.
Gentle, gentle.
It fits.
You're a princess.
- I'm a princess.
- No.
- It's okay, oh Selorm!
- So what's it feel like to have a really tiny foot?
- Well today it feels really great, (laughs).
- I know that you're all like yay my tiny, cute little foot
fit into like a tiny little glass slipper, ah.
No it's done, now we're on to the real (beeps) (beeps) Jenn.
We're about to find out if you can run down stairs
in glass slippers just like Cinderella.
Let me go through everything that can go wrong.
First of all, you could trip and fall off
this beautiful red carpet and die.
Second, your glass slipper could crush
under the weight of your body sending shards of glass
up into your feet, you also could like sprain an ankle.
Are you ready?
- I think I'm ready.
- But, we love you and we don't want you to die.
So, we're gonna put a little crash pad out here
we also with have a paramedic on set
so if anything were to happen
you're gonna be saved by a little prince paramedic today.
(laughs)
okay.
Go, switch outfits.
- Okay.
It'll be fine, this is for science.
You're beautiful.
(sparkly music)
Jenn, you look so beautiful.
- I'll admit you look very nice.
- Deep breaths.
Pray that this will not shatter.
Test one, can she walk in glass heels?
Alright, you're gonna do a little dosey-do circle here.
- [Jenn] Okay. - [Selorm] Do it.
Alright you're doing it, you're walking.
- [Chrissy] How's it feel?
- [Jenn] Oh, they feel terrible.
- This is the most awkward thing I've ever seen.
- They're not for human feet I don't think.
- No.
- Okay well, you did it. - [Selorm] You did it.
(cheers)
- That was so awkward.
- How did that feel.
- But you didn't die.
Challenge two.
Jenn, the clock has striketh midnight.
- [Jenn] Okay.
- Your true self will be revealed to the hot dude
of your dreams if you don't get the (beeps) out of there.
Alright, you ready?
- Uh, yeah, yeah, right.
- [Both] Jenn, run, run, run, run, run,
faster, faster, faster.
(yells)
(laughs)
- Are you okay?
- I'm fine.
- [Chrissy] Oh my god are they still?
- [Jenn] yeah, yeah, they're good, we're all good.
- You fell though.
- I could try it again.
- Yeah.
- Yeah you're fearless (beeps).
You ready?
- Yeah.
- [Both] Three, two, one.
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run,
(yells)
(laughs)
- Why did we throw her?
- We just threw her.
- I got to the bottom and then you guys pushed me
so I think,
- Do you want to try it one more time?
- Just one more time.
- Sure.
- [Chrissy] This time no handrail.
- Okay.
- Alright you ready?
- Uh, yeah.
- [Both] Three, two, one, run.
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run.
Run, run, go, run, go.
(cheers)
- You did it Cinderella.
(cheers)
Yeah you're a princess.
(sparkly music)
- [Both] Wow.
- That was fun.
- That was so fun, I'm so glad that that wasn't us.
Cinderella was all like I'm a beautiful princess
just gliding down those stairs.
Jenn was all like (groans)
you know like she can't (beeps) work a hoop skirt.
Glass slippers and like elegance.
But, those things didn't crack, they didn't chip,
nothing, it's like kind of freaky.
- [Selorm] Yeah, they're kind of like magic maybe?
- So technically yes, it is not bogus.
But, I have a lot of reservations.
- Yeah, not bogus but not comfortable.
- [Both] Bibbiby, bobbedy, Boo.
Bibbedy, bobbedy Boo.
- We found a glass shoe.
- Is that real?
That's not real.
- [Selorm] No, I don't, no.
- [Chrissy] Remember Brandi and Whitney's rendition though?
♪ Impossible ♪
♪ Impos ♪
- [Chrissy] Did she go up or down?
- [Selorm] I think they do it together.
♪ Impossible ♪
- Who am I, am I Whitney?
Duh I'm Whitney.
