This was definitely my favorite video to film in a good long while. I've been really enjoying making these longer ones and I'm so glad you like them too. If you want to look into some really helpful online counseling, or if you just need someone to talk to, please visit betterhelp.com/gus. Thank you so much for supporting what I do. I'm glad you're here.
The crazy thing about that car crash test is that the *g-force* can't be eliminated with a suit like that. That dude took a 35 mph hit and just shook it off wtf
But also, this test proves virtually nothing about it's ability to help you against a bear. The real test is not whether the suit can withstand impact or bite force, but whether or not the bear can methodically take it apart while you're lying on the ground under the bear.
This comment starts out like a father figure speaking and ends up being someone who would say uwu so much ironically that it becomes completely genuine.
Very surprised there's no mention of the very obvious Hot Rod similarities here. Hit by a vehicle with a mattress in the front, rolling down a ravine, general bad ideas...
The part of this video that caught me off guard was at 4:20 when I so confidently thought he was going to say "beat me with a stick" but "wail on my face with a big piece of lumber" works too
Have you fried up any blue cat, or flathead since learning this? Middle america has the best cat fish, the Missouri river got some that are 100 lbs, that's alot of meat, limits on fishing in most parts for cat is also like 5+ a day most species. I'll never go hungry
To me it's more like the videos Idubbbz should be making. It reminds me of his style, which makes sense since they hung out to film those crazy ass shorts a while ago. It feels a lot like his videos, the silly setup intros, the 2 monitors. It's super famliar.
The suit is legitimately impressive, given that all you have to do against a grizzly is survive being mauled whilst you play dead that would totally work.
Hey, Gus, buddy, I know you don't like the whole "focus on anything but your face" thing your camera has going on but to be honest it makes the crash zoom effect all the better Keep it up man hope your camera never works correctly
@Arruda Lets chill on the whole "therapy doesn't work" thing. I'm sure the online service is shit, but ragging on real therapy is silly and dangerously ignorant.
@@numbe1099 He's kind of right, all "arruda" did was not only rag on the online service, which is shit, but is also ragging on real therapy, which is not shit. That's not to say there's a guarantee that it'll work, but the success rate is far better than betterhelp. It's ignorant to state that real therapy doesn't work.
@@jackrose5077 I agree. It's not just ignorant to say therapy doesn't work, it's harmful information. Even with the "evidence" Betterhelp has provided that the counselors are licensed, they say that they can't deal with "serious mental issues" in the TOS, which means they're no better than a completely unlicensed platform like 7 Cups of Tea. It also means they're in a legal gray area. Building an in person relationship with a therapist is integral to finding the right therapist and ultimately affects communication between therapists and clients pretty immensely. The payment plans also don't make sense. Therapy is something that takes years of work and trust building with your therapist for the best efficacy, and randomly bailing after 1 month helps no one. Betterhelp is a cash grab, their definition of a "licensed professional" is hugely lacking, and their model of care isn't empirically backed. Therapy should never be as murky as Betterhelp.
"There are things you can't fight, forces of nature, a bear appears, you move out of the way... But when you get in a Bear Suit, you can fight the bear, you can win"
Theron Strong Yeah but a grizzly isn’t shaped like a mattress. The issue isn’t how injured you get if a grizzly knocks you over, it’s how injured you get if a grizzly, y’know... viciously mauls you.
At first I agreed but after thinking about it, I don't know. I think alot of Gus' brilliance is in his cheap production value and homemade vibe, as well as his editing style. His wit and humor is grand, but is only one piece of the puzzle when it comes to his success.
@@ThisNewHandleSystemSucks Yeah but they hired Beck Bennett and Kyle Mooney who both came from RUclips...also Bobby Moynihan who did skits with Donald Glover(Childish Gambino). I think SNL could benefit from a Gus, or Brandon Rodgers type.RUclips is the future and it shows based on who they've been hiring recently.
Hating me is conforming But do you think it would benefit Gus' style of comedy? I don't know about that. The low production value is certainly a factor in why his videos work so well.
This is honestly my favorite one of your videos it just kills me everytime. Ive watched it atleast 10 times at this point. The way he dedicates himself. The 8 ft jump backwards to getting fuckin launched 15 20 ft after the truck hit.
Did you see the biographical video 'The fleeting fame of Canadian Inventor Troy Hurtubise.' Man he is an amazing person and his is such a amazing story and sad story. Everyone should watch it!
@@davidm2031 By way of it being an online, not face-to-face therapist session which is supremely more harmful than good, yes. Face to face therapy sessions do more than over the internet - but there's still some quality counselors on there and it's not a scam -because- of what people misread the T&C to be.
@@DracXBelmont lol fuck off, it steals money from people who subscribe, connects them to some random guy who doesn't even read the messages and in the terms of service it says it doesn't have to help you.
All in favor of Gus starting his own OOTD say “I”. Because he doesn’t get enough recognition for his ICONIC looks. This man is sporting a distressed lion-print tunic and casual, but not tooo casual succulent adorned gauchos. Thematic? Yes. Fabulous? Absolutely. Can you run around chasing Tyler in the rain in them? God I hope so. Street style for the win Gus.
Man, I've watched a lot of your videos, but this is the only one to make me cry with laughter for so continuously long. Him just getting rammed with a friggin truck, instant tears of laughter
dude I can't even handle this!!!! I just had a crap day at work so I came into this video with no expectations and it rocked me to my core. How is this not a shot for shot of the hot rod movie!
I legit just found you a couple days ago and im stoned now and watching this and its blowing my mind also mitchel collins made me cry you’re awesome and your vocal range and voice sound is so interesting and vast
I found him on here years ago. He wasn't that old was he? His beam tech stuff was... almost unbelievable, but something about his character makes me think that there's a possibility that somehow popped open a quantum doorway of some kind. Something the nerds weren't able to fathom.
Yeah damn, especially as Gus has said how he takes such care with advertisers.. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but, with mental health at the very least, you shouldn't leave anything down to chance. Should make him, and others, take more acare in future at least.
This guy was actually a big thing for his 15 minutes of fame. He was a "trending" and "viral" "meme" as the kids say. He even went on a couple daytime talk shows. I saw him on the Rosanne Barr show. Yes, Rosanne Barr had a show for a while.

I was thinking of Simpsons and Hot rod when i saw this :D A bit lite tho.

I wasn't aware that the events of Hot Rod occured in real life
Ben Holle literally every scene from that part lol. I had no idea.
I don't think Gus has a ramp tho...
This was so damn entertaining man. Really made my day Gus.
3:39 this looks like what the first rendition of Pacific rim probably was before they got funding.
"There are things you can't fight, forces of nature, a bear appears, you move out of the way...

4:50 This suit will do him well if he ever travels to the Endor moon
Thought the same
Hey youtube make my boy trending again
to be fair, a Grizzly can run like 40 mph
Science 👌🏽
Theron Strong Yeah but a grizzly isn’t shaped like a mattress. The issue isn’t how injured you get if a grizzly knocks you over, it’s how injured you get if a grizzly, y’know... viciously mauls you.
They also can weigh 600 lbs which if on top of the suit may crush it....
@@thecolorteal6132 it wouldnt crush the suit completely, just enough to break your ribs

Immediately falls apart in the next scene.

This is def my favorite Gus video
Your suit reminds me of that Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy fad episode
When I saw the notif I could have sworn the vid was about me
Thought you were gonna say he died of a bear attack
He came into my job back in the day went to school with his kid. Saw his suit in real life cool dude small world rip troy
