TSA is Forcing me to Tear Apart my One Wheel

that's the point of no return pyrotechnics on set if you guys shoot me against my will I'll kick you yeah that's a real problem well something's going to happen to me I don't know what I don't know what's going to happen man something everyone gives me these smiles and these wigs I like surprises but ren said it's unfortunate because it has to happen and I don't know what it means that's what you got from your car he said he needed something from his car and he didn't Take out anything from his car that I did, it's in my pocket, don't touch me buddy, speaking of guns, yeah, we just saw a Taser seller in Santa Fe.

Are you serious? You're showing some millennials how to use a Taser if you shoot me against my will. I'll kick you. I think it's admirable, Clint, that you think so highly of us to pull a prank on us that you stop. Yeah, that's a bit of a day's work. I trust Jared Jared said everything will be okay, so it is. Everything will be fine, we're going to Minnesota next week, huh, and we have to ship our boards there in advance and that time is now, we have to take the

wheel

s off and remove the battery, that's all.

Let me put it this way, a turn equals freedom, which means you won't have freedom until Tuesday of next week, just pack up the boards, buddy, I don't know, we have to take them

apart

, hey, I'm taking this too. I'm going to void the warranty, oh how much do they cost? So I'm willing to take the risk. Well it's because we're trying to fly these things on a plane and airlines have regulations against certain battery sizes so the limit for an airline is 160 watt hours for a battery between 100 and 160 depends on the airline, one

wheel

s Originals were like 135 watt hours, these guys are 324 watt hours, so it's a big battery that leaves us with the dilemma of where we want to be able to mount these things.

Minnesota, so what's our plan and what did Niko actually do yesterday? He just took the battery off and sent it there and then checked the wheel into his luggage to fly with it in the morning, preparing for a little dry ice prank, I mean, Jared's trying. so as not to burn us, to be honest it probably won't be used, but anigo wants to do as much practical as possible here, so my gut tells me it will end up being vfx, we'll see how it cools down, dry ice is frozen. Carbon dioxide is so cold that it skips the solid stage and goes directly to a gas called sublimation and that's why it looks so cool, very cold, it's effective and fun, and if we put water in this bottle and let it start to sublimate. inside would eventually explode, which we may or may not do at the end of the day today denial and we may or may not be doing this I didn't hear anything yeah leave that as red blah blah blah you know let's put this Niko is trying to make sure that we have everything as it is written on the page right now, but everyone is also trying to put in their two cents and how it could be improved and changed, so it's a push and pull that I'm just kind of sitting on the side because I'm like lasers driving towards your car maybe and that's when sam gets serious and it's like he's heading towards we're having fun this is like we like to think about this enactus use use this don't ignore it and then and then I hope let nothing get messed up that's great, that's great, but I need you to focus on your character's performance honestly, that's why, and if that's exactly what we're doing, this is literally a discussion about the character, if you have Yes you have suggestions, great, I would love to hear them, but let's follow the process, we don't follow the process and then we end up making mistakes, everything is fine, yes, well, we are all filmmakers, but everyone has their contributions. but it can be difficult to direct until the idea is there and you can see it and you can adjust it and everyone is in character and has ideas about what makes their character better, what makes them flow as an actor, which is great. , but I have to make sure I follow a procedure to be able to see the scene I have written.

We can make sure there are no misunderstandings about the rhythms I've had on paper and then make adjustments. I just want to make sure we're doing it in the right order. We talked about it a lot, but we haven't executed it yet and we just executed it as we had initially planned. Okay, we have to do it off paper the first time. change it seriously, I like all the suggestions, but you guys just have to give me the only version, okay, we'll do it for you, nico, thanks, nico's way, let's do it, diana, stop it, let's go to your car, good God, everyone, Peggy's bottom.

Come on, come on, okay, like you were saying before, you get the same jokes, literally, the same pacing, the same, everything except the characters' motivations for doing what we're doing, it makes a lot more sense, guys, just run it, literally. , run it if. you're trying to stop the laser now, before something bad happens, jump the gun in the second half of the scene, it has to be fun and the games don't stop, fun game, okay, we'll let me pour the water and don't I will do that. say, stop the laser, I'll say whoa, this is crazy, ren, because me running, do it, do it, do it, me, running and causing mischief, it's the exact opposite of what I was doing at the beginning, yeah, it's just a consistent character, ideas we shouldn't.

I'll be having this conversation describing how we think Ren Clinton myself should go, we should play this and if it feels good or looks like something is working, we'll know and if it looks like they should move on, let's do it while we're standing still. Talking about it is not the best option. I'm willing to try it your way to see what it's like, but Sam, I need your promise. If we try and I don't, they will willingly commit to what I do. I want to do it, yes, but let us experiment a little here, oh man, no, I know what they're going to do.

Interrupting their moment seems to work, but okay, slower, guys, give me a version more like you're doing. Ren, I get the feeling that you're not really respecting this laser. I think we should just put it in before it gets out of control. I think that's probably the best idea right now. I appreciate this new director that you guys want. take it and bring it back to what's on the page, okay, let's do it guys, okay, let's do a rehearsal here. Can someone turn that "I'm Tom Cruise" thing into a ringtone and put it on our subreddit?

That would be great, thank you why. Shall we go to Minnesota? Well, first of all, we're going to do some exploring and besides Sam Nico and I are all from there, we wanted to show the city after the rest of the guys and have them check it out. the sights and sounds are very well designed, they are built like tanks and they don't like us making videos on how to take them

apart

, they have explicitly told me that, but you know, I bought this at full price, I can do it. what i want to do with it: i put some extra hot glue here to seal it from water.

I'm going to remove the front template now to remove the bumper. I'm going to reach for the screw. This is. This is great because this. serves on top of a bumper that serves as protection against the underside of the dash here, very cool, it's integrated, there's a motor cable, we need to make sure we keep track of all the screws we're removing, okay, there's one there, on reality is something like that. A difficult part here is trying to eliminate this. It's like fragile. Now it's like taking apart an iPhone in terms of how many parts there are and how difficult it would be to take apart an iPhone because good luck putting an iPhone back together in the future.

The same way I did it, I did it. I took a whole iPhone apart, put it back together and it still works. Actually, Jenna dropped her phone and broke the screen, so we bought a replacement screen and I took it. she apart she placed it she wasn't that difficult did you use a microscope? There we have it oh, I blew it up, I broke it, okay, I probably wasn't putting enough pressure on this thing, well, I took out the motor, so now I have to go in here and remove the batteries pyrotechnics on set, okay reunion security guys we have explosive devices recording some so we just have to be careful everyone just keep it very dangerous uh it's hot let's get warm security meeting security meeting bring it in security meetings be careful careful come on let's do it with this I doubt this be enough to fully incorporate it we should try it with it and the effect is trying to be safe, hey, hurry up, bring it, bring it, come on guys, bring it, come on, let's start the day here, as I predicted a little earlier, try to Ice Bit doesn't play, so we'll have to add another visual effects shot. the list some of you may know, I know it, Nick knows it, I know it because we're both Eagle Scouts, American flags flying there, you see there's also a little solar panel, solar panels charging a battery, that light will come on, It's probably in a sensor. so at night they don't have to lower the flag according to the flag code, at night you lower it, but if you have a light on you don't have to, so they have a little light that runs on batteries and shines . light on the American flag all night there is a flag code that basically says if you don't light it it has to go down straight US flag code you take it unless it's made of a material that can withstand the weather you need to take it off a storm that's probably nylon it's probably fine and it rarely rains and then at night if it's not lit you have to turn it down it's not a law people like you know people mess with all the people on their porches, don't do that. all you know is that patriotic people say oh you're disrespecting the flag, it's against the law, it's not a law, it's not the whole flag code, it's a sign of respect, but you also know that Using the flag for different purposes is also expression and that is protected. about the first amendment, which is more patriotic than just what you do with a flag, so let's light the flag and follow the city code.

Awesome, what you want to do with the flag you're carrying, oh, there you go. Guess what this is. one of my favorite segments here is where I get to use a sponsored portion to talk about a book that I really enjoyed come with me, let's watch it together. I found that one of my favorite types of stories is when a character repeats time and I'm not talking about time travel, think of Groundhog Day in that movie. Bill Murray wakes up every morning and discovers that he is repeating his previous day. Even better, watch Edge of Tomorrow, and I mean experience the reprise of Tom Cruise at his finest in that film. he repeats his previous day dying well and if instead of repeating your previous day you repeat your whole life that is the premise of the book that I want to recommend to you today called the first 15 lives of harry august written by claire north this book follows our protagonist harry august , he is born in the first world war, grows up, lives a full life but then dies of cancer in the 1980s, except instead of moving on to some kind of afterlife, he is born again in the early 1900s, but this time remember everything.

That's right, all his memories have returned to him from his previous life and at first he doesn't take it very well so he ends up in an asylum although the second time he dies he discovers that there is a whole community of people who repeat. Some people are even thousands of years old while they repeat their lives over and over, but what makes Harry different is that his memory is perfect. North tells this story in an interesting way because in fact, the book begins with him on the deathbed of his eleventh life and that is when a young woman who can also repeat his life appears to deliver a message that the world is ending. and that is something that I find particularly interesting because they can send messages through time so this girl as a child gives a message to Harry on his deathbed so that when he dies and is born again he can do the same to another person in his deathbed.

I really found the philosophy in this whole book quite fascinating because it really deals with all the trials and tribulations and all the implications of your life repeating itself over and over again. There are a lot of wonderful things that come with that, but also a lot of bad things. I also love how this book explores that and you can get this book free when you try audible for 30 days by visiting audible.com runner team or even text runner team a word to 500 500. oh yeah, speaking of what audible They have what are called audible originals and they are just exclusive titles that they finance and release on their own and they are quite interesting.

One of them is called the singularity trap. I recommend it. I have driven over 13,000 miles in the last five. months and audible has helped me during that time if you want to check this out you can get those books for free by signing up for a 30 day trial by visiting audible.com runner team or texting oh continue texting corner team 500 do You can get a free book, it's cool, oh this is the back padfor the Craft and Ride foot, by the way, it is concave, it gives you extra grip when you ride and also relieves stress from the foot or bony toe as we call it. uh we got it from Crafting Ride, they are great one wheel accessories.

I decided I didn't get the glass. Hey, we're fine. Oh man, I'm probably doing this incorrectly. Yes, you can.look there, it broke right there, but it's going to come off now, so wow, two more screws and they're under the sticker here that says void warranty if removed oh, that's the point of return, that's it the point of no return now. it should be able to slide out it's one of my favorite movies jared what movie is baseball no I've never seen it I don't think this is going to happen I don't think it's going to happen because this screw just spins freely I'm going to send it contains everything, which might be very expensive, yes, £20 30.

What doesn't make sense to me is that if I'm going to ship all this, they put it on a plane because I mean the batteries explode, yes, obviously not. A good thing, yes, but there has never been a single case of a wheel battery exploding, even the new XRs, yes, they are safe. I think I'll have to send this all in, which would suck if that were the case. Well, Clint think about this too, whatever the cost is to ship it to Minnesota, you're going to pay double to get it back, yeah, no, sure, yeah, that's a real problem, yeah, how much will it cost?

Probably like 150, not worth it. If you want it there on Monday morning, it's not worth it, leave it behind, but Clint, what's with us traveling together? It's hard, man, it's so crazy that you take advantage of people's freedom, okay, suck it up, it's not normal, it's not going to happen, all hope is lost, I thought. Could you think I could do it? Might as well do those push-ups now. Alright. I can't take my wheel to Minnesota. My only hope is to ask Cliff to let me borrow his because he has a v1 and they actually will.

I'll let you fly with the v1 um luckily Cliff is my roommate so I hope he chills with him buddy I have a favorite asking him so I couldn't open my xr and take out the battery to take it with me. Minnesota so I was wondering if I could possibly swap a wheel with you because I could fly the v1 on battery but I can't with the xr yeah that's cool man it's quiet yeah if he broke it. or if I break it like there's someone I trust the only wheel is the sun thanks to another board member great yeah ok right in Minnesota I can borrow the Eclipse wheel so I'll have a board in Minnesota, yeah, and then we'll just play, oh.

Oh my god, thank you very much man.
