- (groovy music) At Vat19 we made a name for ourselves
by making and selling giant treats.
But, we noticed we couldn't sell you
a giant jello cup because one doesn't exist.
Yet.
(chill music)
- Have you even seen a bunch of videos
of people like getting into jello,
like bathtubs full of jello,
or hot tubs of jello, swimming in jello?
- Everyone has dreamed of that.
- So, what if we figure out a way to do that.
And, just get a, we make a gigantic jello cup.
It's winter, so we just push it outside.
Like, the world is the world's largest refrigerator.
- It's gonna take days, and you're not
gonna have that kind of weather.
- But, it's wintertime so we'd be fine.
I already ordered $1,000 worth of jello, so.
(laughing)
- You ordered $1,000 worth of jello?
- Do you remember our giant dirt cake?
Let's use the bowl we used for that.
I think it's over here.
It's already got like the shape and everything.
- It does look like a giant jello cup.
And, we have the giant spoon from
the cereal marshmallows bowl.
- It's 360 gallons.
So, we'd have to boil like half of that.
- Sounds easy.
(chill music)
- So, I built a pipe frame to stand this barrel up.
I got a little burner down there.
Fill it up with water.
I'm gonna see how well this boils.
- So, I've been looking at the weather
and it's like, all over the place.
This is so much that's gotta be cooled down.
And, if the weather's fluctuating and it doesn't work,
like we can't do it again.
- The jello cup outside's just not gonna work.
- I think we need like a really big refrigerator.
(phone ringing)
- I need to rent one of your refrigerated trailers,
but I got some questions before we can kinda commit to it
'cause we gotta make sure it's gonna work for us.
So, we just need to make sure like the doors
are large enough, and that it'll
actually fit into our warehouse.
Ooh, that's gonna be way too short.
Okay, well we'll see what else we can figure out.
Okay, thank you so much.
- Thank you.
- [Woman On Phone] Bye.
- No.
- [Danny] That's a bummer.
'cause, I mean, you gotta think--
- [Kara] So, we're a whole foot...
- We're a whole foot short.
There's not much to this.
It's a trailer with some insulation.
So, if we, maybe we can find these refrigeration units.
- [Kara] So, you're saying you wanna make a refrigerator?
- I might make a refrigerator.
(tapping)
- Yeah, I think you might need to double insulate.
- [Man] It's really cold in here guys.
- Bunch of weirdos hanging out in a fridge.
- All right, we've got over 500 pounds of cherry gelatin.
150 gallons of water to boil.
That's really all we need to do this,
so let's light the fires.
(peppy music)
(sniffing)
- Ooh, that smells good.
(whirring)
Oh, I don't care if that's bad for me,
that's good stuff. (laughing)
- All right, we mixed the gelatin in
with about half the water we need.
And now, we're adding cool water
to get it into our giant jello cup.
We're all tired.
(splashing)
(groovy music)
- It's like a one-to-one ratio of the jello and cold water.
It'll probably take several hours.
- Oh yeah.
- [Kara] Oh my gosh.
- [Man] What's going on?
- There's a slow leak somewhere in the bottom of it.
And, there's literally nothing we can do about it.
We gotta get this thing in the fridge
as fast as possible.
Oh crap, what's going on over here?
- Oh crap, stop it.
(bleeping)
What is going on there?
The hose is still in the liquid over there
so it started siphoning back through the pump
and into this bucket that we rested it in.
Science.
- This stains, so now we have what looks like
a crime scene clean up.
- What have I done?
(squeaking)
(drums pounding)
(horn blowing)
(upbeat music)
(blowing)
Putting some cardboard on top so
hopefully nothing falls in there or gets dusty.
It stays nice and clean.
- I think that our chances are pretty good.
I don't think anything's gonna go wrong.
- Let's check it tomorrow.
Let's hope it's cold in there,
'cause we're hoping to swim in this tomorrow.
I'm kinda doubting that's gonna happen.
I don't know what's going on but it says EF on the thing.
We're still liquid.
I need to find out what EF means
on the temperature controller.
Oh snap.
The fridge was working great, but we didn't anticipate
how it would act once we put the gigantic jello cup in.
The condensation froze on the air conditioner
from the dry ice.
(whirring)
It's frosting over again, so.
We think it's happening because there's
so much humidity in the room.
So, we're gonna de-ice it again,
and completely cover the jello cup
to see if we can get the humidity
to stop coming out of the cup.
- That's mold.
That's mold, right?
I don't know.
- [Man] This is a complete failure.
- This was Danny's dream.
- Everybody just like get a squeegee and like.
- Take that layer of mold off you mean?
- Yeah. - Oh no.
- [Jamie] I think the good news is, is I don't see the mold
deeper into it. - Yeah, like growing down.
- It's not going deep down.
If we can scrape off the top one, two inches
or whatever, we should be good to go.
I wanna stay optimistic.
- Yeah, me too.
- Let's get scraping. - Yeah.
(upbeat music)
- All right, this is it.
- Moment of truth.
- Let's peel the top. - Okay.
(crinkling)
- Yeah.
- Smells real good.
- That cherry. - Yeah.
- Oh, it looks sometimes like liquid, but it's not.
It's jello.
Fixing the mold ended up not being too hard
because it was just on the top layer.
So, we just scraped it off and threw it out.
Why didn't you guys wear shorts?
- We're gonna let you be the one to get in.
- Yeah bro.
Yeah, this has been your life-long dream.
So, I thought it would just be, you know,
there's not a lot of space in there.
Just kinda let you be in that 40 degree jello, by yourself.
- It is so cold. - It is very cold.
- Maybe it's warmer in the center.
- All right, let's do this.
(peppy music)
All right, here goes.
- You can do it man.
- I gotta work myself up for this.
- C'mon you got this.
- It's the dream, oh goodness!
Oh my goodness.
I'm not sinking.
I'm not sinking. - Whoa.
- It really is jello.
Dang.
- (gasping) Oh my gosh.
It is solid and hard to move.
- Is it jello all the way in the bottom?
- It's jello all the way.
Getting in the jello was kind of like a dream.
A really cold dream.
It's jello. - Solid jello.
- [Danny] It's jello.
Oh my gosh.
- [Joey] Oh yeah.
(grunting) It's too heavy.
- This is the dream.
Oh yeah.
That's what it's like down there boys.
- You're gonna be bright red for a long time.
- Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
I feel like I've accomplished the life-long dream
of not just myself, but pretty much everyone
who's ever eaten a cup of jello.
Everyone's thought about swimming in jello, right?
Three, two, one.
(yelling)
I can't go down.
- Can you go down? - I can't get down.
Can somebody give me a push?
- There you go.
Come on.
(yelling)
- Oh my goodness, oh my goodness.
Okay, I'm done.
I'm so slippery.
We didn't think this through guys.
Okay, there we go.
(sighing) Towel.
I gotta say, I'm pretty satisfied.
This was a huge project.
I'm really pumped that this actually worked out.
- So, how were we gonna clean this up?
(beeping)
- Basically, we have a YouTube channel
and we're making a 360 gallon jello cup.
So, we're making a large amount of jello.
We're gonna get in it.
Yeah, haven't you even wanted to swim in a bunch of jello?
Yeah.
- It is. - It is.
