It seems like that all I do now is watch shark tank when I eat.
I'm not alone 😃
yessir
Lol same
My peopleeeeeee
What are y’all eating?
the struggle of opening a kitchen drawer full of multiple tongs is real. It’s not just about price, it’s space
Sounds like you have some organization problems 😂
@@KingLouOGsounds like someone has limited space and rather wants to minimize than maximize - no need to ridicule and belittle - a tonality that is so typical for americans
@@djamilawilschke7259 oh stop it. Tongs don’t take a lot of space, hell you can easily hang them anywhere.I live in a tiny apartment and I’ve never thought you know what I wanna pay for a $20 piece of plastic to get rid of my perfectly good 5 dollar tongs I got at dollar general.
@@KingLouOGi have like 6 tongs, so this is very understandable
@@michaelliriano9004 yeah it’s understandable some people are hoarders 🤷🏻♂️
His approach should have been something along the lines of "its not big enough yet for me to drop everything and do it full time, but with your help im ready to take that next step into that commitment". Strokes their ego and gets his initial point across. Which i happen to agree with.
To smart to be won over with flattery
soooooo when i go on shark tank can i have you just speak instead of me???? i get the feeling you would rock it! that comment is gold! you worded it truthfully, but also made it relevant to the sharks…that’s exactly what the dude should have said 👍
I actually agree with his initial speech. The constant rhetoric that you have to give up and sacrifice and endanger everything just so your business can succeed is ridiculous. You CAN do both. Why he backpedalled on it so fast is beyond me.
They only show us a small edited portion of what actually happened. Wish there was a way to watch uncut pitches
You can’t do both he has 7k sales. Proof you can’t do both
stress and pressure can often make people more irrational.
@@aimlessdrive8723 That's not life. That's the culture of a few specific places at this time in history. Life can be all sorts of other, better ways.
Why did he backpedal 💀
Kevin is quite polite on this one and great feedback too. He must really likes the product actually.
and a gold digger
Kevin has a soft spot when it comes to family, especially a "father"
@@entityunknown1668 this makes so much sense!
Daymond's comment really rubbed me the wrong way. Of course they are all brilliant and driven - that goes without saying. But another fact is that they all became wildly successful during a time that is so far from todays economic climate its almost a parallel universe. Now the majority of humans on earth are forced to live paycheck to paycheck. Housing has 10 - 20x in many countries over the last 20 years alone. Cost of living is almost unfathomable. Things like milk have seen a 300% price increase along with pretty much everything else. Fuel has over doubled. Just to take a financial risk (not even considering having to take time away from working a 40-60hr week) can be life ruining, for you and your family. Mark started his began his path to billionaire status with hard work, a great idea, execution and the luckiest timing on earth at his point of sale and market. The fashion industry is considered nearly impossible to penetrate compared to 30 years ago when Daymond broke through with street wear.
I will never be a fraction as successful as any of the sharks, not in a million years, but they seem to be very ignorant to the fact that even they most likely couldnt have replicated their success in todays economy. I know the entrepreneur is essentially walking into their living room and asking for a large sum of money, rejection isnt my issue. Its the snide comments as and condescension.
@@entityunknown1668I didn’t know he had any sympathy for anyone 😂
$150,000 for 49% of a company that sold $7,000 of product is actually a great deal for this man!
I wouldn't pay that amount for this company at this point in time!
@jayess6318 - for the EXACT reason you being a SharkTank "watcher" rather than an investor. Any other observations??
@@warriormanmaxx8991 you seem extremely triggered. I see a response from you to almost all the comments here.
@@Rob-ml3vl His being triggered may be due to SPS
You aint got 150k
@@janemariefuentes2988 I am the founder of a company that is worth $300 Mil. I don’t understand what your point is.
This dude almost lost his deal with Damon, trying to lure other sharks in 😂
He was soo composed all the way through and then almost fumbled himself out of the deal
Kevins got a point about how cheap tongs are already. I just bought one from Dollar Tree for $1.25 - its a half spatula half holder type tongs - it's decent.
spatula
yes spatula* hah
@@rock.paper.scissors
But this is interchangeable for cross contamination where you dont have to keep washing the tong ir have a drawer full of tongs. Plus its customizable
Yes but worth putting in picnic basket for everyone to use to mix salad, noodles, pasta etc. It's not patented, I will make my own lol
These sharks have literally supported grind culture multiple times with different pitches
Kind of a cool product, but I don't think I'd pay $20 for it. I think it should be under $10.
Hey @brendane3283 - do you complain much in daily life, too?!? how about "wrong thoughts"? ehhh?
I don't think they were complaining.
I thought it was $10 but 20 is way too much
This reminds me that … the next time I go to Dollar Tree/Dollarama/really any Dollar Store… I should pick up some more tongs.
I will definitely support him by purchasing the product. Genius.
However, while I agree with him about the current overworking culture, I agree with Mark as well. You do need to hustle and sacrifice to a certain degree if you want to achieve your goal. That's life. So if you make your own choices of not to do certain things, then you can't be preaching. No one will listen to you, especially when you literally come in and ask for money and said "I am not gonna work hard for it". Poor presentation and poor mentality.
The degree of sacrifice is the question here? Ramen noodles every night? Yeah. Leading your family into homelessness? Nah.
If you buy this for 20 bucks then you have lost all brain cells.
There’s a fine line… it’s hard to tell what that line is.
It's true what he said tho even on Shark Tank that's all the sharks talk about how hard you have to work how much you have to sacrifice etc
How many times have we all heard one of the Sharks say, "Are you doing this full-time??"
This man is CRAZY!!! He sounds like a raging crazy person!
Glad to see everyone on their lunch break!
"Everyone" is NOT on a lunch break !! "Exaggerate" much in daily life, too ?!?
Dinner break
@@warriormanmaxx8991Tf is wrong with you?
Wow didn’t expect Daymond to make an offer 😮😮😮😮😮😮
AnyTongs just did 12 million in sales in the past 9 months and is currently valued at 50 million 🔥🔥🔥
Hey @osayemeokwechime2456 - 1. Do you (ahem) "fib" much in daily life, too?!? 2. Current worth of the company is ... $306,000. 3. Ehhh ?!? 4. Get Lost !!
@@warriormanmaxx8991 I simply told the people what they wanted to hear.
Is there a webiste to check the sales of shark tanks or sth?
Wow
Source: trust me bro
People always bring up price points like folks aren’t out here selling $5 hoodies for $50 to hundreds of dollars 🤷♂️
Damon slapped "FUBU" on a bunch of cheap clothing and bilked "his people" out of top dollar for it.
I feel like he needs to manage his temper better, but great product!
Hey @sonpham2720 - re: "I feel ..." 1. Where in your body do you "feel" that?!? 2. Since you admit to a "great product," will be willing to over look those icky feelings?!? 3. Ehhh?
@@warriormanmaxx8991 What the...
Get off the drugs@@warriormanmaxx8991
It’s not a great product and his anger temper and language is scary for that I’m out!
Sharks want these perfectly wrapped companies and don’t want to put in the effort anymore. How they act on season one versus now is night and day, it’s a shame.
It's their status & wealth, they can afford to not deal with companies that will involve too much of their time & effort. At this point some of these sharks have made hundreds of deals, there is only so much they can put in to each company they invest in. The sharks appeal is that they can network a perfectly good product or company to give them broader market access, they aren't advisors trying to fix struggling businesses
The sharks are full of crap that no one says that about being all in on a venture. How many people have stood there and said they left lucrative jobs, sold their houses, moved back in with family etc.....and more so how many times have Damon, Robert and Mark done the "I had nothing, I was in my mother's garage' and all that other crap?
One last point....no one on that panel has touched a dirty dish in a decade
True
This comment! Yes!
They will ROAST people are aren't going full time, but then belittled this guy for wanting to do just that?
That MAN will work his butt off for his company !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta wash 4 times more utensils then just washing 2 tongs
I want to sit down and have a talk with the dude in charge of the audio of these episodes.
@vergitable Why?
@@patrickfranks2734 Because the volume on these episodes are all over the place.
Honestly good decision he made, with the power of 1 shark on his team, he will actually be able to achieve what he's been wanting
my last name is tong and i love AnyTongs, because forks are easier to wash than a tong, and when you got too many tongs, is better to get AnyTongs
The guy is right when he says that it's bs that you need to be in financial crisis and do the business 24/7 to be successful.
Tog gave up 49% of his company. It's a great product. Just the exposure of the show might have brought in enough sales to where he wouldn't need an investor.
I would buy this . I hate giant tongs clogging my drawer
I follow kevin oleary and he's talked about giving everything up
Who else does NOT care about the endless kumbaya back stories and is just interested in the business deals and learning from that? Am I alone being that cold like Mr. Wonderful?? 😂😂
I’m the same way bro
Always skip those parts xp
It has become manipulative and formulaic and therefore annoying.
its annoying but ok sometimes
I agree unless the seller sells himself out of the deal like this guy almost did.
I love all the Sharks, especially Mr. Wonderful ! 😍
He’s hilarious!!
That dude is definitely from New Jersey with that presentation. Lol
He almost talked himself out of a deal lol.
The moment the sharks heard he didn't patent it they got worried, that the idea is out there now. So someone might actually just take the idea. Wouldn't be suprised they tried to delay the showing of this episode.
I think it’s a first time attendant got deal with shark with just $7k in sales in 1 year !!
Falk and spoon again! Really Really Really smart!
The way they keep repeating tongs over and over is cracking me up 🤣
7k sales and this is the deal that actually gets sealed after the show
Wait, so you don’t want too many tongs in the sink, but now you got so much forks and spoons on the sink…
you don't need to wash the forks and spoons in order to get a fresh set of tongs on the fly.
You would think Sony being so big they could afford to fix the audio in half their videos
Very smart man!
Stares at anytongs like I'm hypnotized...
This is like a product you see on temu
The net worth for anytongs is supposedly $1M as of 2023
I honestly rather buy regular tongs. It seems like a hassle that you have to get two forks or spoons and assemble the tongs every time you need to use either spoon or fork tongs. Its easier to just grab regular tongs instead of assemble tongs
I don't think you understand the purpose of his product then. It's not an "alternative" to tongs, it's just there in case you all of a sudden need more tongs and don't have the kitchen space to buy and store 10. It definitely makes things easier.
Hey @Vr4z1el - re: "honestly" = 1. Are you not "honest" all the time? 2. Or only when using that meaningless word at start of sentences?
@@va2347For that reason, products should be under 10$, not 20$
@Vr41el Good Point!
Mark just kept on knocking this poor guy. He's still learning guys.
This is a brilliant product. If Damon does this right this will blow up.
I don’t think so I wouldn’t pay 20 bucks a product that hold my forks/spoons when I a dedicated utensil that does that already 😂
@@KingLouOGwith it being all d to c, and those profit margins, Damon might advise to reduce it hella
@@hakuub3890He obviously will 😂, if this gets popular than competitors will obviously knock down the price and he would lose sales. This is how capitalism works.
Nobody will spend that
It did! Company now valued at 50 million
He worked for AOL… says everything
Who else binge watching the entire playlist in late 2023 🎉🥳 XD
👇
I guess I will have to wait a couple years or maybe more to ask if Anytongs still in business
The company is worth 45 thousand dollars today. Great work fella.
I wish the music was louder.
Who said that 😂😂😂literally y’all say that every episode ☠️
LOL when you tell millionaires and billionaires that grinding to be successful isn't necessary, you're preaching to the wrong crowd.
*' WHEN I SAW THAT LAKERS FRESHINER I THOUGHT THEY BETTER HAVE MARKS TEAM"*
Him: I won't work hard, that is for idiots, I am so smart and enlightened.
Damon: Sign me up😢
Barbra: because I’m at home today, and the sky is party cloudy, and I’m an Aries…. I’m out.
Barbaras not an aries shes a pisces
Hey @JJ123 - 1. Your Barbara "joke" (LIE!) is NOT funny !! 2. Any other attempt at humor ... or ... truth ?!?
@@warriormanmaxx8991 sorry I offended you and Barbra, now take her meat outta your mouth
@@caligal1090 thank Karen! ✌🏽
Seriously, how did this guy get a deal?
He was right at the very beginning.... Just buy more tongs.
Lori: is this a joke?
Mark: that's cool
Lori: here's a golden ticket
Barbara: I haven't cooked in yrs so I'm out
Funny!🤣...but Barbara was not on that episode.
I can 3D print this in 1 hour with 1 dollar worth of PLA filament, and you are asking 20 dollars for it... What a joke...
Bro really gave up 49%💀
Desperation.
The thing is just not that great and he knew it. So he grabbed the bag asap.
@@prateeksinha1176 facts. even the guys selling on alibaba can't be bothered to rip this off. It's more of an occasional thing you would use in parties to serve food. I wouldn't want to use this when grilling or deep frying lol
His business is a high end Tong company!!! If anyone got a bad deal here its Draymond, this is money down the drain.
7k in sales he may as well. Probably wont make millions but he’ll make good comfort money off this
mate brought his insecurities to the show and tried to get a deal with it. nah mate that's not how it works.
The real value is not having large tongs that don't fit well in the dishwasher. With that said, tongs are designed for a purpose that forks simply aren't suitable for. This product will never be as good as real 1$ tongs, that is a big issue.
Update ?
Those working in fine dining banquets will say all the tongs that u need is any utensils and 3 fingers😅
I accidentally Googled " AnyThongs" 🤣 dam
I feel like I’d see this on temu? Did he really invent it or it just was not popular in the US?
Got these on Ali for $1
I bet his wife loved that decision 😂😂😂
I need these tongs. Like 👍🏽
Mark has shark socks :)
The most I would personally pay is $4.99 maximum!
I like his first version much better
Get this guy a PR agent lol
fix the audio
What a strange guy lol
$7K for sales honesty these sharks are being nice and polite to him that’s nothing. Then he run over mouthing over about not willing to do this and that etc and Mark hit the nail on the head you do what you want but it’s our money and he dislike that reply.
What about using two knives?
He’s weird and awkward, but let’s not forget one second think that we wouldn’t be too. I’m SHOCKED most of these entrepreneurs hold it together so well up there on stage.
What he said about grinding culture was right that's why they were insulted.....
It was absolutely right.....
Job success isnt everything !!!
How's everyones lunch?
Donuts and eggs
Just finished and analyzed this whole thing lol.
@rapsiraps - 1. What "everyone's" (NOT!) lunch is ... 2. None Of Your Business!!
@@warriormanmaxx8991Tf is wrong with you?
@@warriormanmaxx8991 oh you're fun to talk to
He didnt patent it for 2 reasons.
1 - there is prior art meaning someone probably did this idea in the 80's or 90's and it never took off..
2 - he didnt want to spend any money on a patent.
either way. it proves the idea is easily knocked off with cheap cheap copy cats that would retail for $9
Or put chopsticks in them for those who have difficulty using them naturally
Wow. As of January 2023, Anytongs is worth $2mil. And after this RUclips upload it will probably have a second wind!!
should have just gone for the views and kept 100%
Insane because I live in Clifton 😂
@mrgwclips - re: "insane" = are you writing from Clifton's mental institution ?!?
Counter...and wait for response before you say something stupid with diarrhea of the mouth. Luckily, Lori has a good heart and instincts and saved him.
No patent. Surely no barrier to entry for companies to replicate
There are so many episodes of TERRIBLE pitches where they quit their job and sold their house and the sharks judge that. I applaud this dude

This is even worse, he said he wouldn't quit his job and sacrifice his family but then he immediately backpadeled on it
Lunch break
So how am I suppose to use this for spaghetti?
its easier to just have tongs!!
this will remain in everyone's cutlery drawer
AnyTongs just surpassed $75 million in sales!
Hahaha. Nice try
I’ll just go dollar tree for 10 tongs, instead of buying a make shift one for $20
I can get 20 tongs at the dollar store for that price.
Go clifton NJ
Mr D is going to regret this one... If he goes through with it, that is...
I feel like damon was gonna accept the 40% but he kinda lost him after he opend his mouth
