I started a company called CrunchLabs where we build a toy together and then I teach you all the juicy physics for how it works. So if you want to learn to think like an engineer and have really fun time doing it, check out the current promotion where you get 2 FREE boxes at crunchlabs.com
You should also go subscribe to the CrunchLabs YouTube channel cause we’ve got some bangers in the pipeline- youtube.com/crunchlabs
And if you want that backpack (minus the contraptions to win all the games), you can find it here- markrober.store/collections/b...

I'm trusting you guys with to use the PEZ trick responsibly!! And I know it's been a hot minute since I've posted, but my videos take a lot of work and I've got 3 more BANGER vids to drop before the end of the year!

There’s something about having a huge wad of “physical” tickets that makes it more rewarding/satisfying than having them just loaded onto a card. At least with the card it’s more discreet though.

Imagine being an employee at an arcade and seeing Mark walk in, knowing what is to come.

"Or you could just go with my route": - Earn a bachelor's degree in engineering - Earn a master's degree in engineering - Work at NASA for nearly a decade - Spend another decade tinkering and building gadgets - Build an entire YouTube channel and lab dedicated towards unique engineering problems and solutions - Create a custom gadget costing hundreds of dollars to win $30 worth of stuff an at arcade But I for one am glad that he chose this!

Imagine a guy with no arms goes to the punching bag, then asks his dad to give him his “hand” then his dad pulls out a literal bionic arm

Imagine being an Arcade worker and seeing the same guy on the security feed 9 different times in 1 day with slightly different backpacks everytime.

My favorite part is that his pez dispenser contraption is so much more simple than his original one.

Arcades now be like: No suspicious backpacks allowed

When he was a child: I want to be an engineer, a mechanic to help people broken things Him now: I go destroy children things

I must say, the air hockey backpack is genius. The other guy would never notice a backpack playing for you while you are doing something else.
-
Imagine walking into the arcade seeing 9 jackpots go off while a guy leaves with 9 different backpacks smiling

5:54 The one issue is with the basketball is that if a staff member sees you putting the ball back in the bag/taking it, they’ll think you’re taking the arcade machine’s! (Just a thought, you could always make sure no staff are around.)

arcades be shivering in their boots
-
Imagine people coming into the arcade and wondering how they could ever beat the record on the machines...

What I love about Mark is that he makes STEM appealing and fun for kids, making kids more likely to go for STEM majors, a true service to society.
-
And this is why the future is scary.
-
14:24 he let the Preston Merch rock.
-
Imagine trying this 30 years ago when cards didn't exist. You'd need a second backpack just to hold all the paper tickets!
-
The fact that you took the time to build all these to go in a backpack or just look non suspicious is amazing this is epic.

mark literally made a weapon from fallout and has yet to acknowledge that fact
