I collected data at the carnival for a full day. Then I used that information to figure out which games are the biggest scams using science to analyze them and show you how to beat them. I also figured out how much the carnival actually pays for the prizes so even if you win, you lose. And then I visited the carnival with my professional baseball playing buddy to dominate all the games. It worked well.
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

I worked at an amusement park. One day there was a terrible earthquake. The entire park was leveled to the ground. The only thing left standing were those milk bottles.
-
I have a 100% win strategy on the baseball one.
Aim for the carnie's head, grab a prize while they're down. -
Mark getting a professional baseball pitcher to win carnival games (related to throwing) is the definition of overkill.
-
I shot out the star, slowly cutting out a circle. After 3 guys inspected my paper one yelled "we got a Rambo here!" and all the men lined up to try their hand at it. Got a giant stuffed Vulture holding a heart. It was a massive victory!

Moral of the story:
Just ride the roller coasters -
i won the “tight rope” game at great America and they had to take a picture of me so I couldn’t win until a month later lol
-
I'd be really curious to see these numbers displayed as random people, like we see, and doing it again with a group of players who know of your tips, and see what different they make in win percentage.

My favourite part was his wife’s/ partner’s reaction. When I got married (at 30)and my husband (29) bought me a stuffed toy, my reaction was the exact same as Mark’s wife 😂
-
How to win giant prizes:
1. Bring a long stick with a hook
2. Get the toy
3. Naruto run as fast as you can out of the carnival( with your new toy/toys of course ) -
So a scientist and a professional baseball player walk into a carnival....
-
Ive watched this video ATLEAST 5 times and I never get bored what
-
I liked the kids staring in awe at this guy after he aced one of the games.
-
Ok so,
When i go to a carnival, bring a pitcher from the mlb
Noted -
“if you have no skills, these are the games for you”
WOOOOOOOOOOO ITS SHOWTIMEEEEEE -
I managed to get across the ladder multiple times after studying how others kept failing. Basically, the first time, I purposefully flipped it and then just climbed regularly upside down. After it was concluded I had cheated, I went again and spread myself out. Again, I reached the end but had flipped in the last few rungs and my win was invalidated.
So I straddled the ladder and raced the person next to me. I won and it was finally counted. -
I love videos like this, bc obvs most people KNOW these are scams. But a deep dive into the WHY and HOW is just so interesting.
-
"i just bought this for you mahlady"
awkward silence
"why?"
such a real life representation -
Loved the end...
“I bought this for you.”
“Why?” -
