His commercials remind me of simpler and better times. They give me a surge of nostalgia.
I guess simpler times from today but even then I wished it was the 1970's or 1980's..Even though not perfect like the 50's like my Dad was a teen in,but nonetheless today sucks dystopian,dictators on the left are ruining our World!
Short term memory?
cal worthington and his dog spot...
Getting a life would help
Low standard for culture huh? I get it...
I've always thought this dude was just a pitch guy, but when I found out he created the shamwow.. that takes guts and ingenuity
Did you not watch the clip? He did not create the shamwow. Are you really that over eager to kiss someone's butt?
he didn't, nor did he ever own the company
@@SouthernSteelerya what is this person talking about? This is probably the shamwow guy himself commenting
I rec'd a Shamwow as a gift. It sucked. It actually repelled water when dry.
he didn't create shit, he's repackaged a cheap product, that was a rip-off of another product, branded it as Shamwow and sold it at inflated margins. He did create Shamwow brand, but since it was never been a brand in a significant way, talking about formative powers here is akin talking about creating a turd every morning on the toilet. The guy is awesome show, and probably good businesman, I'll give him that
He looks like he's always got some blow in his pocket
Because he does. The quality’s still a amazing
Yeah and he also looks like he's on that blow too.
Billy Mays did coke
I got septic sick in highschool to the point that I homeschooled for auto immune issues and it took a couple extra years to finish.
Whilst doing that I became an infomercial specialist and memorization girl during my nightly homework.
Seriously. I knew every variation of his and Cindy’s pitches. Glowy dewy, wait they’re more!!! Sham Wow Sham WHAT!!!
I ended up in College taking, you guessed it, … digital production and editing.
😂
Vince is a legend. 👍🏻
Thanks for keeping the couch kids company.
I loved his infomercials
and i do like editing...maybe he did have an impact
id probably still buy whatever he sold next to...so damn...that smooth talking salesman
@@uberedblackwolf4438 hahahaha I know right? I can clean my toilet just fine with 0.99 cent bleach. But he could sell me a spray for $11.99 and I would be convinced that I needed it 😂
Im attorney Bob Goldwater have you been injured call my lawfirm NOW 😅
Miss those ads too
He also created the "Bitch Slap Chop", which landed him in jail. 😂
He got Sham Wowed in jail…
@@CEOkiller He was right. They do love his nuts!
You have to hand it to him that he's got tenacity.
I knew him in the mid 90s when I worked in Hollywood. He hung around artists like a remora fish, was totally crude and vulgar and a jerk, and seemed to pride himself on being repulsive. His attorney sent me a notification that I was going to be sued over something, I let him know he (very obviously) had completely the wrong person (I had zero idea what he was even talking about is my dim recollection of it) and his response was a personal written letter saying "oh my bad" basically. It was beyond weird. I never called him friend and avoided him. That I even made it onto his radar made me feel vaguely dirty.
Good for you , Mr. Morality.
@@indiosveritas It's a story weirdo, not a treatise on morality.
@@TheYarcob
But you are the one being sanctimonious and not shy with the ad hominum attacks, aren't you .
Think before you text .
Everyone make mistakes bro, is like if you get hit by another car and you just ask the police to ban the drive for ever and call that an "intentionally" murder attempt
@@marckcf9600my point was more an opinion I formed of him over time. I was around him for a while, I want to say 18 months, because he was hanging around friends of mine, but I refused to hang out with him if I didn't have to. During that time, I got to know him, even though I didn't want to. It wasn't about one mistake. That was just an odd anecdote of the only time I ever really interacted with him.
It looks like he had a stroke or something, the right side of his face seems paralyzed. Noticable in his right eye and the right side of his mouth.
Could be nerve damage from birth or something. That’s what happened to Sylvester Stallone, the doctor that delivered him messed up with the forceps on his head resulting in nerve damage which is why his eye and mouth droop on one side of his face, and why he talks the way he does
Yeah. It's weird that the elephant in the room wasn't addressed.
Yes, he had a stroke. The headset is there to partially obscure the fact.
@@amethystdeceiver6874 Oh, I never thought about that 🤔. Thanks for the info.
I thought the same thing!
Every time I think of him it reminds me of the time my daughter yelled you're gonna love my nuts at Wal-Mart.
😂😂😂👍🏻
Ah those 12 hour drinking binges do it every time!
They always bring you down
@@codafett "Just like Rainy days n Mondays" 😄
As a heavy drinker, not even I would last through such a binge. So yeah, I gotta say, good on him for cleaning up his act
If hes making a living, eating, and has a few things, hes doing ok
Random
He has a wife.
@bengonzales1182 In this day and age? Poor guy.
I was a little kid when i saw the commercial for sham wow. i didn't know needed one but I wanted one
My daughter use to run around the house performing shamwow Comercials for us 😂 she was really cute doing that!!
Wholesome
Does she slap a hooker?
The Dollar Store Willem Dafoe.
Love the self deficating humor. "I have been nastier situations than this." [Hands in yuck liquid]
*deprecating. 🤣🤣
I saw him do his Shamwow pitch at a 2-3 day boat show in Rhode Island before he got famous on TV. I was impressed with his stamina and enthusiasm since he was on his feet talking while doing his demo all weekend.
If they do a Popeye remake, he's your guy...😉
I’m surprised SNL hasn’t parodied this guy yet
He parodied them.
They kind of did in that show “the whitest kids you know”
I miss the days of Shamwow and Attorney Bob Goldwater late night tv ads 😂
I miss the slap chop my grandma had when I was growing up 😔
He always reminded me of the comedian Jerry Lewis. 🤪
I hope he bounces back and wish him well
Why?
He looks like Stripe from Gremlins
Hès worked hard apparently for his own success can't fault the guy for that.
Vince was the best salesman to ever exist!
Billy mays is here with a special TV offer.
I wish him luck.🤞
And here I always thought he got his tongue caught in a slap chop 😅
Don't have a boring salad, don't have a boring life!
The Sham Wow guy is back on tour.
The most wholesome comment section ever. Keep it up everyone.
His commercials remind me of simpler times when cable tv was around. I love the streaming options now but there’s something nostalgic about running to the bathroom during a commercial break so you wouldn’t miss a second of your favorite show
Sham-Wow only started in 2007???
Also apparently he has a website that acts like Shark Tank (pitch ideas, get distribution deal)
I remember only him Advertising the ShamWow and Slap Chop Commercial and heard of him going to Jail but that's all I heard of him I don't watch TV much anymore now! I kinda slowed down since I moved out and I haven't seen him in any Infomercials since then!
I actually never saw his mugshot so this is interesting. Maybe I did but I forgot I don't know. But interesting to see what is life also had install for him even before informorcials. I like how I made a joke though about him being prison with his sticky commercial when I first saw it. I thought it was hilarious! He just brushed it off like it was no big deal and I'm glad getting his life a bit more together.
I remember these commercials
The makers of this video,forget his most successful product, the shampon!!!!! Shout out to Bob and Tom!!!!!
I thought this guy was a completely imagined creation of the Aqua Teen guys.
Rumor has it he is now a card room dealer in Las Vegas. Some had alleged to have spotted him working at aria poker room. Go see for urself, you might be lucky enough to spot him.
Our legal system is trash.
I remember watching a college humor video making fun of this guy... i honestly didnt know the hooker thing was real good lord i cracked up laughing
Steve Porter does a great remix of this guy...
It's a shame he and Billy Mays never did a proper crossover together
Unless I'm wrong of course
They've done coke together at a party, but that's about it.
Throw in the black guy from Mr microphone and it’s gold
Quicky was the best commercial!!!
Hard drinking makes for some funny stories.
But, Other people have to tell them.
Because you can’t remember.
Crazy guy , but a good guy.
Wonder if he's developed some facial paralysis 😢.
Wish him best of luck.
I found out what happened to him because of the CollegeHumor video lol.
My company had a booth a few booths down from one of his salesmen back in the day at a state fair. His girlfriend had a booth directly next to mine, I can't remember what she was sellilng. We chatted all day, hit it off pretty well, and while Shamwow Jr was peddling his wares, I was making out with her in the family bathroom. I have no regrets!
yeah you did
Omg, the schticky😂
I was watching another RUclipsr who bought a lint roller like that as like a new thing from tik tok and I was like those have been around for forever but I wouldn’t quite place my finger on what I knew them from. This!! It’s this!!😂
That freaky right eye.
I admire him for poking fun of himself in the newer infomercials for his past mistakes
He has some kind of podcast starting soon.
Legend has it that he kept a sham wow in his pocket & it dried him completely up. 🤷🏽♂️
So he grew up and had life experiences? He sounds like a motivated human
he looks like moe from the simpsons
I don’t even have to watch this nor see the thumbnail to have assumed that this guy got into some kind of trouble at some point lmfao.
Vince looks like someone gave him the Slap Chop..... 🤣😂😅
I hope he makes it and is big again
Looks like he's been smoking some sham wow!!!!😅
Cable television is nearly dead, I don't see him making a comeback to his primo days.
On a hot, humid day, a shamwow in your underwear is a godsend.
You following me, camera guy?
There's no way dude's real name is Offer
Moral of the story: Alcohol stinks. Use pot instead.
I hope his nuts are doing OK.
The best chamois will always be made of deer skin
Sounds like he needs to take to social media.
The first time I heard about the hooker incident was from the "Shamwow Guy in Jail" parody by collegehumor, I didn't think that was a real incident.
Thank you
why would that simple commercial cost $20k to produce? maybe thats including their ad budget
He turned into the ShamOW! guy
Anyone else get reminder of Moe from the simpsons??😂
Yeah, but what's up with his face? Did he develop Bell's Palsy or something?
He just went on the PGL podcast a few weeks ago. Interesting and wild life story.
His last name is “offer”
Lmao
Tortellini, Linguini, Zucchini, Bikini
Did Bill Hader ever do a skit as this guy on SNL? If not, missed opportunity
it's crazy but just put yourself in his shoes, super famous for a rag commercial and everywhere you go they want you to be that guy and repeat the lines..it's tough
I think this dude finally lost his shit after all then late night commercials
Who would have thought that the guy who thought putting "you're going to love my nuts" into a tv broadcasted infomercial was a weird dude?
I heard about this dude through the movie. They would sell it on late-night TV. We listened to the same sort of music so took a chance. The movie is absolutely terrible but charming in it's own way.
I was so confused by everyone who called him the coked out shamwow guy.
"Hi, ith Vinth with thamwow!"
Love sham wow ❤❤❤
hmmkay thanks for the info i have to go now
Wishing him best.
Jamaican slap chop will live in infamy.
This is just a vid about the Shamwow guy and it has views. Of course, the world wonders what happened to him. I bet you not many people knew about the Jack and Jill cameo.
He ain't much to look at but the kid's got moxie.
just encorage him to make more podcasts
It's concerning that anyone on TV that isn't on TV any longer always end up on drugs or some sort of sex related scandal.
I hope he makes a comeback entertaining guy.
The movie he directed wasn't nearly as bad as "Water World"
I bought a knockoff shamwow and came with 3 large shamwows for half the price of the original lol
This guy looks like a poor man's Michael Shannon without the acting skills
Keeps bieches in check still from what I hear.
Jizzle! 😂
What even motivates someone to even wonder about the whereabouts of a guy like the (never famous) ShamWow guy some decades later anyway?
WOW
He looks like Harry Styles
Found his calling and should have stuck with it.
Shamwow is a glorified paper towel. The absorber brand shammy is the best by far
