Building A Laser Baby

this is going to be a weird video let me give you some context this video is sponsored by amazon yeah i don't know how either some poor guy at the marketing team was like i know the perfect person for the job he's uh he's a youtuber his name is a mark rober and they got my phone number by mistake more specifically it's sponsored by the boys season 2 on amazon prime video which is a great show that i watched long before i got in contact with them then michael what's the problem they have some really weird things they want me to do and i can't do those things without making a video that's well cringe i kind of have to make them think i'm doing the video they want i don't want to say tricking [Music] in amazon to deceive a multi-billion dollar company you must first understand what they want good thing they sent us what they want in this storyboard from their marketing team amazon wants me to build like a baby doll toy that shoots lasers out of its eyes because there's a scene from season one of the boys where butcher picks a baby superhero out of the crib and uses his laser eyes to [ __ ] cut two people in half it's badass okay whatever let's move on scroll the rooney down to where things really get problematic oh michael goes around the house lasering things lighting candles giving people haircuts with the laser burning paper they want me to put a high-powered laser in the baby no i can't do that do you think i just keep high-powered laser diodes in my ass you know how long the manufacturer takes to [ __ ] huck one of those bad boys on a ship and barge it all the way to the united states so we have to use that's right lies and deceit but here is the kicker michael goes on a high octane action sequence with his baby laser mowing down a series of henchmen played by his friends yeah whatever whatever they want me to recreate the baby laser scene from the boys have you [ __ ] seen the baby laser scene [Music] they get cut in half they get [ __ ] cut in half hello how how do i replicate that huh um can you make it totally safe for your friends to get lasered by i guess for number three we are also using a lot of deception logical step one get a baby this one came with hair the one in the show does not have hair so we gotta fix that right up oh and now it looks like a testicle and now i gotta find a way to fit these laser diodes into his head but honestly spending this much time with the baby makes me want to keep it safe it's like some deep paternal instinct just woken inside of me to try and protect it but you know i got a video to make so we gotta get in that little noggin of his never want to do anything like that again [ __ ] i have to drill holes for the laser how do you think you get lasers inside of a baby huh how are they going to come out of the head without [ __ ] holes in the eyes [Music] i'm sorry and just like that we have a bonafide laser baby with a couple extra features i worked in there but that's a our little secret but before i show you what it can do amazon sent us a little one sec amazon sent me like a promotional package for the boys season two they send them to youtubers to get them like excited for the show i just want to know what's inside oh that's cool it's like a little baby model from the show this season really comes out september 4th huh i got no time to finish this video wait is that a laser baby what the [ __ ] why am i building you a laser baby huh when you're gonna go and build your own [ __ ] laser oh i did it you just put leds in the eyes i will show you a laser baby time to die buddy [Music] [Laughter] yeah yeah oh my god i have better baby you think that's a good laser baby no no no no this is the better bit and it's so on fire whoa whoa whoa hold the [ __ ] phone michael didn't you just kind of put low power laser diodes into that baby and uh yeah i kind of did well then how is it lighting the other baby on deception kind of if you can't have a high-powered laser you need to have a powered target which is where this comes in the laser activated system engineered by reeds or laser for shortwave uses this sensor which is literally just a photoresistor i put inside a coffee cup to detect changes of brightness in its environment so this is the target for the laser i put a little light diffuser on it so it doesn't matter what angle the beam hits it at the light gets dispersed bounces around inside the cup and the photo resistor picks it up and when it does detect a big spike in light it knows a laser beam's hitting it and you can activate just about anything like a little light or a baby fire so in closing this is your high-powered laser and that is how this is happening with the triggering system figured out i know exactly how i'm going to film the final scene shut up [ __ ] neighbor dog i'll eat you oh i can not set my friends on fire with a baby uh it's fine we'll pivot the boyz is a really gory show we can just do a really bloody dangerous that's a no to human blood then what is this [ __ ] george orwell 1984 so instead of a fire i'm thinking the laser activates like a wearable blood explosion so i'm testing that out now kind of scared because i don't know how much pressure is in the little co2 tanks could be like 40 psi 50 psi and that's a little dangerous so i'm gonna co2 canisters are actually under 800 psi of pressure who knew not me i put all of the stuff into this bag i'm gonna try it on the actual body now wearing the dumbell sensor on my chest that's how it's going to be for the actual like amazon meme i'm just going to shoot the thing okay okay okay oh my [ __ ] god so we got the blood squibs done and the baby built did i ever show you how the baby works to activate laser maybe simply shake it as though you would a normal child i received an email telling me that i need to inform you not to shake children here it is up on the screen oh wait sorry that's the definition of sarcasm let me give you one sec oh there it is okay perfect yeah do not shake a child the accelerometer in its head will pick up the shakes and he'll have a small seizure to indicate that it's working and with all that out of the way the only thing left to do is to film that final scene or more specifically michael uses his baby laser to mow down a series of henchmen all on a mission to make it to his couch to watch the boys season two you know what amazon [Music] fine [Music] oh [Applause] [Music] eddie open the app store download what is this show called again [ __ ] i'm bleeding out oh [ __ ] you shot you shot her dude she didn't

Great video, even though Amazon looks to have rushed him with a tight deadline (no surprise there).

[u/chili01]

Now I understand when they said it was from a "big" company

holy shit it's AMAZON of all companies lmao

[u/ionianblade-01]

This has to be one of his best videos. Clean editing, perfect comedic timing and a clever solution to make the baby laser an ACTUAL baby laser.

PSA if you want Michael to keep getting sponsors like this download the stupid app by going through the link from the video description. You don't need to open it but download it from there

I find it so funny that Amazon contacted him to promote an 18+ TV show by basically making a baby that "cuts people in half" but apparently got a bit bothered by him making a very over the top joke about shaking babies

perhaps he was only joking about it, but since there were probably some reshoots involved (given the timeline), I got the impression that they made him do the disclaimers. I understand why they did, but given the context of the TV show it just seems so mild lol

[u/TheCanadian666]

I didn't think he could make something more disturbing than the footage of him putting the animatronics into Trigger Me Elmo. I was very wrong.

[u/derpicface]

FUCKING DIABOLICAL

[u/mostinterestingtroll]

I love how Amazon gave him such a detailed marketing script.

High power target was pretty smart
