- Hello you guys.
I have seen so many videos of guys trying period simulators,
where it basically has them feel
a similar kind of pain as a period cramp.
(Asa groans)
(Dakota laughing) - That's enough.
- Ooh.
- Oh. (Brooklyn laughs)
- [Brooklyn] They're looking a little panicked over here.
They keep hovering.
- I'm trying to scope it out.
Make sure it's not dangerous. (mouse clicking)
(bell ringing)
- And listen, okay? I would never normally laugh
when someone is in pain,
but this is going to be a particular time
where we might (laughs)
because us people who have periods
literally deal with period cramps a lot,
and they hurt like crap.
So it's about time these guys learn what that's like.
(upbeat music)
I'm nervous.
Okay, level one. I feel literally nothing.
- [Brooklyn] Three. - [Friend] Gotta try this.
- Nothing. (people murmuring)
There's like, literally nothing.
- Four. (machine beeping)
- Nope.
- [Asa] You don't feel anything?
Or you can feel it and it's not bothering you?
- Five. - I don't feel anything.
- [Brooklyn] Tell me when you can feel something.
(machine clicking)
- That! Go down. Go down. - [Brooklyn] Okay.
- The weird thing is I feel it in my back.
- I do not feel it - [Asa] Hmm.
- in my abdomen at all.
- This is level five for both.
- It's coming in waves.
Yeah, see, this doesn't--
This feels like someone's pinching me.
- What feels the most akin to your period cramps?
- I mean that, but that's more like pressure, not pain.
- Okay, let me try this. (machine clicking)
- Whoa, whoa, hold on. (Asa laughs)
It doesn't feel like internal pain.
(machine beeping) It feels like--
- [Asa] Like a muscle spasm. - Like your muscle's spasming.
- [Asa] Yeah. - Okay, so I just tried it.
Level six, I'd say is like an average period cramp,
and level eight is a bad period cramp.
I did all the way up. All the levels.
- I am on my period,
so this is just the reality of what I'm living today.
Yeah, I'm like, "I don't want to put
extra period cramps on me already."
So we need another person in here to test it out.
- [Bailey] Which one of you (dog barks)
wants to test the period simulator?
- I'll try it.
- [Bailey] Come try it out.
All this stuff is in position.
We've got an audience now, (Sana laughs)
ready to see how this goes.
- [Brooklyn] Level one right now.
- [Bailey] The power is in Brooklyn's hand.
Okay, level one. How do you feel?
- I feel nothing.
- [Bailey] Level two. - Two.
- I don't even know if I want know.
- Four.
- No, I mean-- - [Bailey] Nothing?
- Okay, I can feel that. More in my back.
- [Bailey] That's what I said too.
- That's five.
- I mean that's definitely twinge-y.
- But your day to day period cramp, worse?
- Worse.
- I'm gonna go up to six. Six.
- [Bailey] It's just not comfortable.
- Yeah. - [Bailey] No, still?
- [Brooklyn] Still worse?
- I feel like mine are worse when I have them.
- [Bailey] Yeah, same. - Go up. Seven.
Seven?
- That's more. Ooh yeah, that's more--
That's more like it. (group laughs)
- [Brooklyn] Okay. - [Bailey] Yeah?
- So seven is Mom's
- Yeah. - period cramps.
You wanna go up to eight?
- No. - Okay.
(group laughing)
- [Bailey] Okay, so summary, Mom?
- Summary: I don't get that much pain in my back
when I have cramps, but I definitely feel like seven
pretty much all day long
for two days is what I would normally feel like.
- [Bailey] Mm-hmm.
- Okay, introducing Bree. (machine beeps)
She's going to tell us
what her normal period cramp level is at.
- Hi.
- [Bailey] Let's see how it goes.
- Level one.
- [Bailey] Absolutely nothing.
- Two.
- [Bree] Nothing. - [Bailey] Yeah, it's
not until level four. - I know.
- Three.
- No, I mean I feel a little tingle
in the back, - Back.
- but not like a-- I just know it's there.
Okay, that I feel in the back.
- Four. - [Bailey] Mm-hmm.
- Okay, I feel slightly in the front,
but kind of feels like a massage.
(group laughing)
(group chattering)
No, it's just like a little vibration.
- Five.
- I mean, I feel that my back,
but it's not painful. - [Bailey] Yeah.
- Okay. Tell me when it's
akin to a cramp. - Okay, that's not enjoyable.
- [Bailey] Yeah, six is - Yeah.
- [Bailey] where it hits - Yeah, no.
- [Bailey] to the point where it's like, oh.
- Feels like ice. - [Bailey] Yeah, yeah.
Is it akin to a period cramp?
Would you say it's worse than this?
- I would say it's probably worse than this.
Yeah. - [Bailey] Yeah. Okay.
- Okay, we're gonna bump up.
- Okay. Ah, I'm so stressed.
- [Brooklyn] Seven.
- Ow, yeah that-- Ah.
No, that's not enjoyable! (group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] Yeah, that's a cramp.
- Yeah. Yeah. Cramp. - That's a cramp?
You don't wanna go up?
- You can try it.
- All right, your first one. - Ah!
- [Mindy] Is it bad? - Yes.
- [Brooklyn] That's the top.
- I mean, even that, like it's not enjoyable but--
(upbeat music)
- [Bailey] Okay, we're doing--
before you try this, - Mm-hmm.
- [Bailey] tell me what your thoughts are on period cramps,
period, and on a scale of one to 10,
how painful you think they are.
- Okay, I'm gonna say
they're probably like a ss-eight, because--
- [Bailey] Ss-eight! - Seven or eight!
- I got respect people with periods.
I don't wanna do it. (laughs)
- Okay, you're a level one right now.
- My heart is racing. (Bailey laughs)
- A two.
- Okay, nothing yet.
- [Bailey] So you're at a level two and feel nothing?
- Nothing. - [Brooklyn] Three.
(Asa grunts) (group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] I was probably gonna be like
oh my gosh! - [Bree] Like, oh my gosh!
- [Bailey] No way!
- Four. - Okay, I feel that
just a little bit.
- [Bailey] Four. - Okay.
Okay, this is still not really much yet.
- [Brooklyn] Five.
- Ooh, whoo! Okay.
(group laughing)
Okay, it doesn't hurt, but it's like,
I can definitely feel the pressure.
The one of my back,
they're like asymmetrical (group laughs)
so it's making me feel wonky.
- [Brooklyn] Okay. - Okay, let's go to six.
- [Brooklyn] Six.
- Ooh! That is a lot stronger than five.
Ooh. (group laughing)
- [Mindy] Why are you-- (group chattering)
Why are you taking baby steps?
- It's like it comes out of nowhere.
(group laughing)
- It feels like someone just got their hand
and is like pushing it on me.
- That's only a six.
- Okay. - [Bailey] Okay, level seven!
- Six is already like-- (groans)
Whoo. Okay.
(group laughing)
You're gonna like nail up--
(group laughing)
Put up a picture. (laughs)
(group laughing)
It's just like I can't even be still.
It's like the second I feel it, like--
Ooh. That's bone right there.
- [Bailey] Keep walking! Keep walking!
(Mindy chattering) Come on!
(group chattering)
- Is this supposed to be in your bones?
All right, y'all, (playful music)
I'm literally almost to level eight,
but because this sucks so bad, (mouse clicking)
please subscribe, (bell ringing)
help me out, and give some love to the channel.
- That's eight. (Asa groans)
(group laughing)
- Okay, hold on. It's in my back.
(group laughing) - [Friend] Timed this right!
- Oh! (group laughing)
Yeah, I feel like I got weights on my legs. (laughs)
- [Mindy] Did you answer emails? Attend your meetings?
- I could answer email.
- [Mindy] Go play a soccer game?
- No, I cannot play soccer right now.
(shoes squeak)
Try to kick a soccer ball. (shoes squeak)
(group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] He's holding onto the wall!
- Ooh. I'm done. My arms are legit sweating.
(group laughing)
- [Bailey] Okay, after. What do you think now?
- Yeah, that was pretty bad,
I'm definitely gonna say that was an eight.
The second it would happen, I couldn't think of anything,
and I literally-- I mean I couldn't even walk.
I just started walking and everything would just like
- I know but - crunch up
- you guys don't have, - [Asa] Yeah.
- so it's the closest we can get.
- Yeah it's like-- - [Bailey] Yeah.
It's definitely not the same pain
- Yeah.
- [Bailey] but it's like, a type of pain.
- It's, I imagine its pretty similar
to when you're fine, and then all of a sudden, it just hits.
- [Bailey] Yeah.
- And that's when it was bad.
- [Bailey] Okay, how you feeling?
- I'm actually, really scared.
- [Bailey] What is your opinion
on period cramps
and periods,
and what do you think the pain scale on one to 10 is?
Before trying the simulator.
- It's hard because I seen the pain Brooklyn gets,
so I know it's painful.
I don't know if she's just really, really freaking tough.
(laughs) Or if it's that painful, I don't know.
Asa said it was like, on his bladder, (laughs)
and like he went to the bathroom.
(Bailey laughs)
I don't want to pee my pants.
- [Bailey] What pain scale do you think it's at?
Before trying the simulator.
- I feel like it's like those muscle things,
so probably like a four, five.
- [Bailey] Okay.
- Whoa!
- That's your bladder, is it not?
- Yeah, but that's too low. - Okay, but.
(Dakota laughing)
- [Bailey] You're already scared!
- (laughs) I am going to freaking cry.
(group laughs)
- Okay, it's on level one right now.
(group laughing)
- I don't even feel it. No, I'll tell you, okay?
(Bailey laughing)
- Two.
- Can't feel it.
- [Bailey] So nothing on level two?
- Don't go, like-- (groans)
(group laughing)
- [Friend] What was that?
- Felt like I had a bite in my pants.
(group laughing)
It's just how they move.
(group laughing)
- [Bailey] That's level three!
- Oh. (group chattering)
Ooh. That feels good. (group laughing)
I don't like, I don't like,
I don't like the front, but I like the back. (laughs)
That feels - That's a four!
- Weird! (group laughing)
Wait, don't!
- I'm on four!
- The back feels good.
(group laughing) - It's too good!
- The back feels good, it's the front.
Just sit here, let me get used to it.
(group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] Stand up!
- [Bailey] Look at his leg! It's like, twitching.
- [Brooklyn] Stand up!
- [Sana] Stand up and walk around!
- [Bailey] This is a level four, okay?
- I felt like I was gonna pull it.
- [Bailey] Okay, go up. Go up.
- Go up half an inch. (group laughing)
It does the back and then does the front. Okay, don't!
Okay. (Brooklyn muttering)
- [Bailey] Level five. - Walk around!
Okay, you're at six,
(group laughing) (Dakota chattering)
- Asa, how did you do this!
- [Bailey] Okay! Level seven.
- No, no. I'm not going to level seven.
Take it off! (laughs)
Take it off. - [Bailey] Do level seven.
- Seven.
- Asa, you were a lucky duck on this crap. Ow!
(group laughing)
- [Bailey] All right, Mr. Tough Guy.
Pain scale now on a period?
- It was a lot worse than I thought.
- [Bailey] Like a eight? Nine?
- Good enough I had them turn it off for me. (laughs)
- [Bailey] What would you say?
- Lets give it a nine and a half.
(group laughing)
- [Asa] We've recruited another victim.
- Why am I here? (both laughing)
- [Asa] Oh yeah, forgot to tell you what we're filming.
- What's going on?
No! No! Why?! Why?! (group laughing)
No! I am not doing this! (laughs)
- [Asa] I've already done it. Dakota's already done it too.
- No! (laughs)
- [Bailey] All right, before we start,
I want to hear how you think periods are, period cramps,
and what level, one to 10, of pain you think they are?
- I don't know. (Bailey laughs)
I mean, from experience of watching my fiancee.
Whenever she's in pain,
like she's in pain. - [Bailey] Yep, yep.
- I guess, one, I guess, just creates a little discomfort,
but then I feel like on ten,
I feel like she'd be crying.
- [Bailey] So what do you think on average she experiences?
- I don't know!
- [Bailey] Like a six?
- Like a six, - [Bailey] Okay.
- or a five, - [Bailey] Okay.
- or a seven, I don't know,
somewhere in that range. - [Bailey] Okay. (laughs)
Okay, so Brooklyn's gonna start you out on Level One.
- One. - [Bailey] That's Level One.
- All right.
- [Bailey] Are you scared?
- Yes. I'm so nervous!
(Bailey laughing)
- [Bailey] Do you feel anything?
- Three. - Not really.
- [Bailey] Okay.
- [Asa] You'll feel it on four, just a little bit.
- Okay, yeah.
- [Bailey] Can you feel that?
- A little bit on a four, yeah.
- [Bailey] Okay, uncomfortable?
- No, I'm fine.
- [Bailey] Okay.
- That's five, this is five? (laughs)
- How we doing?
- I'm fine.
(Bailey laughing)
- [Bailey] You don't look that fine.
- I haven't changed it.
- This is five still?! (group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] I haven't touched it!
- Oh no!
- [Brooklyn] Okay. - Okay.
- How we doing?
- Fine. Okay, it's not terrible.
- [Bailey] Okay.
Seven.
- Whoo! (laughs)
Seven?
(group laughing)
- [Brooklyn] Seven's what we all decided
was an average cramp.
- [Bailey] Yeah, this is
- Okay. - [Bailey] like a daily cramp.
- All right, it's not horrible.
- [Asa] It's the pressure--
- [Bailey] It comes and goes.
- A reminder that this is pressure
minus the pain. - Right.
- [Brooklyn] Let's see how-- - [Bailey] A seven.
- It's intervals. It's just like-- It pulses.
It's a little bit, and then it dies down,
and then it comes in. Okay, Seven's fine.
- [Bailey] Okay, go to eight.
This is the highest level there is.
- It's the highest one? - [Bailey] Yes.
Okay, it comes in waves, so-- - Okay.
- [Brooklyn] I feel like he's trying to
- tell right now. - I feel like it's coming.
Oh. Ooh!
That's bad.
(group laughing)
- [Bailey] Yeah. Now take a lap,
you know, take a little walk - No!
- [Bailey] around the park. - I can't.
- Oh my gosh! - [Asa] Walk, walk.
- [Bailey] Look at his hands! (Brooklyn laughing)
- Okay.
- [Bailey] It comes and goes.
- Is this the highest one? - [Asa] Yeah.
- [Bailey] This is the highest.
- Oh! It's bad.
- Bob got to level eight.
- [Bailey] Level eight! - All right. Hey, okay!
- [Bailey] You did it!
- I made it!
- [Bailey] All right, so we've got Dad here
all hooked up and ready to go.
- He looks like he's sweating already.
- I would ask if this is torture,
but I realize that all you girls
have to do this every month. (laughs)
- [Bailey] Yeah.
Okay, so this is before you have done
- Wait. - [Bailey] a simulator.
- Is it do something to your face?
- [Brooklyn] No. - [Bailey] No, no, no.
Do you? What is your opinion about period pain?
Like what scale do you think it's at, one to 10?
- I think - [Bailey] Before you try it.
- I think every man should have to feel
the pain of periods so they understand.
- [Bailey] Mm-hmm. - Right?
What do I think the pain is? I don't know.
Your mom and I talk about it a lot, 'cause she's like,
"I have the worst cramps."
I'm like, "Well what does it feel like?"
And sometimes when I was a kid riding a bike,
and my pedal would slip off the pedal,
and you'd crunch your like
- private area. - [Brooklyn] Nuts?
- Yeah. And it kind of is like a dull ache?
Not like a sharp pain. It can be.
But it's like more of a pervasive dull ache,
and you can hardly breathe.
- [Bailey] So one to 10? - That's what I think it is.
- [Bailey] What do you think it is? One to 10?
- Maybe four or five.
- [Bailey] A four or five? - [Brooklyn] Okay.
- I also feel like it's something to note:
every single guy that has tried this in this video
has a significant other that experiences periods.
So that might make them more sympathetic too.
We don't have any, have any friends
that are just like, "Oh, periods aren't that bad."
- Yeah. - All of our friends
understand - Are sympathetic.
- and are sympathetic. - Yeah.
So you're at a one.
- Oh really? - [Brooklyn] Yeah.
- Oh, now I'm really scared. - [Brooklyn] You don't start--
You don't start feeling anything till four.
- I feel I can feel a little bit,
like a little pain in my kidney.
- [Bailey] Okay. - [Brooklyn] Two.
- That's a two? I can feel a pain in my kidney.
Are you frying my kidneys? - [Brooklyn] No.
- [Bailey] You're at a two.
- It hurts on this side.
- [Brooklyn] You're at a three.
- What's that?
- [Brooklyn] That's a four.
I haven't touched it. - That's still four? (laughs)
- [Brooklyn] I haven't touched it. (laughs)
Okay. Five. (Bailey laughs)
Five. - [Bailey] Are you like--
What are you feeling?
- It feels pressure. Does it go up and down?
It goes up and down right.
- [Brooklyn] It's sporadic. (laughs)
- Okay, our camera battery died,
(fabric rubbing) so we are on the phone now.
Okay. And you were at a level five.
- [Brooklyn] Back up to - Yeah. Yeah.
- [Brooklyn] a five. - The difference between
a four and a five is significant.
- [Bailey] Because you gotta remember we're functioning.
- I feel like something's jackhammering me.
- [Bailey] Yeah, that's how it feels.
- Ow! Are you kidding me?
- Seven-- - A seven or eight is average?
- Seven is average.
I would say seven is a solid period cramp.
Want me to go up to the seven?
- I mean I want to know what it feels like,
but do I want to know?
- [Bailey] Seven.
(Shaun groans)
- Ow! (laughs) Ow! How often does it do like that?
- [Bailey] Like pretty much-- - One to two days
of your cycle.
- Like how long?
- Like every 10 minutes, you'll probably get a bad one.
- [Bailey] Okay. Up to eight.
- Okay. Okay. Go, go, go.
- You want me to go
all the way up? - Go, go.
- Okay.
- [Bailey] Comes in waves.
- He's fine right now.
- [Dakota] Looks like he's gonna pee his pants.
(group laughing) (Shaun groans)
- Oh, man! I feel bad for all of you.
- [Bailey] Okay. So after experiencing that,
what would you say the pain scale is for a period?
- Well, I said before it is like a four or five.
- [Bailey] Uh-huh. - Cause I was equating it
to what I felt when I get--
You know, it's more of a knock your wind out of you.
Not so much a sharp pain.
But this one, it made me want to like crunch over.
- [Bailey] Yeah. - Around eight.
And I don't know how women can be in business meetings
or wherever they need to be professionally
and have that going on inside
and keep their composure - [Bailey] Yeah.
- because it's quite a shock.
- [Bailey] So what would you say scale-wise?
- I'd probably say an eight.
- [Bailey] An eight? - [Brooklyn] Whoa!
- [Bailey] An eight out of 10? - It went up!
- Okay, you guys.
That was so fun.
- That was crazy.
- I feel like that was fun
for me. - I've definitely gained
a lot of respect. (both laughing)
- I feel like you already had it, but--
- I had the respect, but now I understand two percent more
of what that might be like.
- Yes. Okay, you guys, thanks so much for watching.
Give Asa and the boys some love in the comments,
and we will see y'all next week.
- See ya! - Bye you guys.
