- What happens when you drink the maximum daily intake
of caffeine in 10 minutes for a second time? - Let's talk about that. (groovy music) Good mythical summer. - I'm trying to start out calm 'cause who knows where this is gonna go. Okay before we unleash our inner monsters, we do want to remind you that this here is good Mythical Morning episode 1,999, which can only mean that
Friday will be episode - [Both] 2,000! - That's right. Please join us. We're gonna celebrate
2000 episodes in style. It's gonna be special. It might even get a little emotional. It's Friday or right now if you're happening to
watch this after Friday after it came out, go watch it now. I don't know who you are or where you are.
- 'Cause YouTube videos live forever.
- Right. - But to prep for it,
let's get mega caffeinated. - Yeah. - Now Rhett, I know that
last time we did this, I was by your side. You consumed 400 milligrams of caffeine. What do you remember from
that dia de los Red Bull? - Oh. I remember it being pretty laid back. I gotta punch something at some point. - Don't punch my shoulders. I don't know, is everybody else cold? More, more, more, more, more. (Rhett burping) More, more, more, more, more,
more, more, more, more more. Oh. - More, more, more, more, more. - You've made my chest red. - [Stevie] Are you kidding me? - My number was three. - Did you do something?
- 71! I freaking told you! - [Link] I can't believe it. - I think a miracle has happened. - We rode the Red Bull hard. But today, we're doing
something totally different 'cause we are gonna slay the monster. We're gonna be drinking as
much Monster Energy drink, not a sponsor, as we
possibly can in one sitting, this sitting. Is all caffeine created equal? My hands are already
shaking with anticipation. It's time for "Red Bull
Chugging Was No Small Feat, So Can We Throw Back
Monster Energy Like Yeet?!" This is Monster Energy
Zero Sugar to be exact which helps fight and I quote, "Fatigue". "It also improves mental
performance and focus and motivates you to work harder." - Yeah! - "So generally you
feel pretty damn good." I'll be the judge of that.
- Okay, we chose to go with sugar free because we want to
isolate the caffeine rush and not have a sugar rush. That's later. We'll definitely do that
at some point as well. Okay, so let's, hey,
let's open this up, man. - Okay.
- Make it special. (can opening) Oh, oh. - It got a little monsterish in here. - Monster comes in 16 ounce cans so we need to consume 2.9 cans in order to consume 400
milligrams of caffeine, which is again, the
maximum amount of caffeine the FDA recommends for healthy adults. - Angie is here today. Hello Angie. Angie is a medic. Mikayla. - [Mikayla] Yes? - Come on out. Instead of doing the tube pour thing, too much fizz last time. - It wasn't your fault though. It was the tube's fault. - We do want to ask, will you give us encouragement to like go through with this
task as we finish each glass? - If you do your best, I will do my best. - Hey. - Well that doesn't
sound like encouragement, that sounds like an ultimatum. Dink it and drink it. How? How do you do that? - I just open up my glugger and take it. - Just like riding a bicycle, which I don't know how to do so. - Oh! Mikayla. - Mikayla, that wasn't encouragement, that was a confession.
- Next week, Mikayla learns how to ride a bicycle. - Tastes like candy. - Tell your throat what you want to do. (crew laughing) - Out loud. - Open up, throat. - We have these stickers too that we can indicate how we feel. You become more monster-like as we get more crazy. (Link yelling) (Link burping) - Just say no when your
glugger wants to stop glugging. Say I'm in, your mind is in control of your glugger.
- No. No. (Link burping)
- Oh God. Okay all right, let's
make this last one count. (Link groaning) - This is hard. - I'm not feeling great. - [Stevie] How cool are
those stickers though? - [Rhett] Super cool. It's quite an upgrade.
- Lucas designed them. It was a little shout
out for Lucas, you know? - Hey dude. - What? - You did it again. - I did it. All right, they're down. Whew!
- Okay, all right. - And now let's figure out
what's gonna happen to us 'cause I know it doesn't
take effect immediately but maybe it is. - According to our boopety
boop boop boop, research, Monster and Red Bull are
not exactly the same, there, we said it. They both contain caffeine,
taurine and vitamin B, all of which are known to boost energy. However, Monster adds some
other fun stuff including guarana, an herb that contains about twice
the concentration of caffeine in a coffee bean. Ginseng, a plant extract which supposedly fights
fatigue by boosting, I'm feeling something already. Are you feeling something? - Ginseng. - By boosting energy production in cells. L-carnitine, a compound
that already exists in most mammals. We're mammals! Whew, man, again, I think it's, the initial impact, to me is like a what do you call it when it hasn't really set in but- - [Link] It's the anticipation. - The anticipation of it. There's a scientific name for that.
- Caffeine anticipation. - Energy drinks are controversial
for a number of reasons. They increase your heart
rate and blood pressure and they can cause cavities. - Do they make your nose run? Is your nose running? - Yes, it is. - I mean I've already.
- My nose is running. - Blow it.
- Doing the same thing. - I don't need to blow it. - Don't blow it, do you want me to blow it? - No, it just goes into my mustache. And because these drinks
often appeal to students, teachers, they're doing what they can to make sure the effects of these drinks are taken seriously. And apparently, some flatworms are being harmed in the process, okay? - Spoiler alert. - There was an experiment published in "The Scientific Journal" called "The American Biology Teacher" and students watched a worm move around in a tray of water. They moved a little. Then they poured diluted
Monster drink on worms and they started moving more. And then they poured some
more concentrated Monster and then the worm's movement spiked and then they died. They got very flat very fast. Incidentally and ironically, this is what the graph
looked like, not very flat. That point there, the highest point, Link, that's where we're headed like
a freaking sky rocket, man. We just got on one of these cans and we just strapped it on and we woo! Oh man, I'm feeling so crazy already. I feel so much crazier than Red Bull. - What about this? I'm gonna go in reverse. - Hey dad. - Oh crap, what? Is your dad down here? - Yeah, I forgot to tell you. I was talking to my dad the other day and he's jealous of my mom, the fact that my mom
gets the top down cam. He was like, "Is there any
other angles I can get?" And I was like, "We can get a bottom up." So, "Hey dad, how you doing?" - [Dad] "Rhett, it's me, your father. We're all depending on you. Don't let us down." (Rhett laughing) - To what, Rhett's dad? Depending on him to what? - [Dad] I'm feeling good. (Rhett laughing) You know what? That's right, you're
feeling great, dad, so am I. Hey, I'm not, I feel just like- - Ooh, that really sloshed everything up. - It's a different kind
of feeling than Red Bull. - Listen, listen, I think
by getting pumped up, you are accelerating- - I'm gonna crush it on my forehead. I've never done that. - Don't do it. - Never done it though. Can I crush it on your forehead? Can I crush it on your chest? - You can crush it on my chest but put- - Slowly? - [Link] Slowly. - I knew that's what you wanted. I don't think that makes sense. - Put it on there and then push. Stop pushing. - Give it to me. Break a rib, break a rib. - Oh. (Rhett grunting) - Yeah. - That was easy, man. - [Stevie] Oh my God, the dad cam shot was so epic. - Sorry Rhett's dad. - Hey dad.
- That's my boy. (Rhett clapping) - He's proud of me. - [Stevie] So you know Monster claims to improve mental performance which is something that we
also learned about Red Bull the last time. And memory is something
that it claims to improve. So we are going to quickly show you two different photos one at a time. - Both of Chase. - [Stevie] Both of Chase. - But one's different. - [Stevie] And your job's to write down as many differences as
you see between the two. So I could have called it
"Spot the Differences", but "What's Different About
this Chase" seemed better. - What's different about this Chase? - I'm gonna fix my hair. - [Stevie] Ready? - Yeah. - [Stevie] Here we go. - [Link] Oh, look at that. Okay. - [Stevie] Okay, did
you register that Chase? - Yeah. Let's see the other one.
- Here's the next Chase. Write down as many differences as you see. (Link yelling) (Rhett laughing) - Okay, all right, let's see what you got. - Well, I mean I don't know
if you went with details. I was like, he's got different socks on. - I'm saying what's different. - Yeah, but like his socks were different. - I said there were two
socks that were different. Ha, that's two points for me. I said the pen in his mouth was different. That was obvious. - I said mouth thing was different. - Mouth thing, there's a wine glass. - [Rhett] The drink was different. The book was different. - Was the book different? Yeah, of course. - [Stevie] Yep, yep. - The neon sign was different.
- And I think the pants were different 'cause he had jeans on in the second one and he didn't, he had like
slacks on in the first one. - [Stevie] His pants were the same. Let's tabulate the results. - [Link] Glasses, different glasses. - [Rhett] Oh, I missed that and also for some reason thought he had different pants on. - [Stevie] Okay so it was close. It was close. You guys, you both did-
- Well we drank the same amount of Monster. - [Stevie] Well yeah exactly. - The exact same amount. - [Stevie] Link, you got four, you got four. Rhett, five. - You know what? You are bigger than me. I mean why is there not more, why isn't that taken into account, Angie? Your hands are freezing. - Yeah my hands are
like legitimately cold. I don't remember that happening last time. I'm not sweating. - [Stevie] Okay so last
time you guys were both cold and we anticipated this. You're giving a lot of mixed signals about the different parts of your body that are different temperatures. So it's unclear to me whether this will be helpful for you, but we did get you a little something to keep yourselves warm. So if you want to put 'em on your hands and maybe your arms, I don't know. - I'm feeling like I could
be at a sporting event and enjoy it. - [Stevie] Okay so last time you played something we called "The Suitcase Game", which was another memory test where the goal was to list
all the previous items the other person mentioned and go back and forth to add to the list. You know what I'm saying. - Yeah. - [Stevie] So we're
gonna do the same thing, but this one's called, "I Went to the Zoo and Saw". So you guys are gonna alternate saying, "I went to the zoo and saw", list your thing, and then
list the other guy's thing, go back and forth. - Yes. - Okay, let's go. I went to the zoo and I saw
an orangutan taking a poop. - I went to the zoo, I saw
an orangutan taking a poop and then I saw a parrot taking a poop. - Isn't that backwards? Add it first and you work backwards. - [Stevie] We can do it that way. - I went to the zoo and I
saw a parrot taking a poop and I saw an orangutan taking a poop. And I saw an orangutan taking a poop. - I went to the zoo and I
saw my mom taking a poop, I saw a patron taking a poop, it was kind of awkward,
it was in the wrong place, and then I saw a zookeeper taking a poop, it was kind of awkward,
was in the wrong stall, and then I saw a lion taking a poop, I saw a tiger taking a poop, I saw a parrot taking a poop and I saw an orangutan taking a poop. - I went to the zoo and
I saw my dad taking poop, kinda awkward, dad.
- That's right, it's me. - I went to the zoo and
I saw poop taking a poop. - Ooh! Then I saw a zookeeper taking a poop. - A what? I went to the zoo and I saw the sign for
the zoo taking a poop and then I saw ah! Come on, come on, come
on, come on, come on. - I saw my dad taking a poop, I saw your mom taking a poop, I saw a zookeeper taking a poop, I saw a patron taking a poop, I saw a lion taking a poop, I saw a tiger taking a poop, I saw a parrot taking a poop and I saw an orangutan taking a poop. - I went to the zoo- - [Stevie] Wait, you didn't see the poop taking a poop on the poop. - You blew it! - I lost. Are you proud of me, dad? (Rhett grunting) - That was pretty good. - I mean the memory. The memory that we just demonstrated. - It got kind of repetitive. - [Stevie] You feel like it's so supreme that you might have mind
reading capabilities? - Me? Yeah, definitely. - [Stevie] I don't understand
where Rhett has gone. - I dropped my sticker and Ben got it. You know what? I do feel like I've got
mind reading abilities, but also I would be remiss
if I did not remind you about the season finale. - Oh yeah, that's right. - Of Ronstadt, the scripted
podcast that we're in. It's out now. That means that if you're like, "I didn't want to wait for it all", it's all out now, nine episodes of Ronstadt available wherever you get your podcasts. Go check it out. Go binge it. What else you gonna do today? - Look at that, I've got- - Oh, you've got a crease.- - I've got a wire. - Okay Stevie, you were getting to- - It's apparently psychic time. She's trying to throw you a bone here, give you an opportunity
to be the hero again if you're feeling it. - It's not about me, it's about the caffeine. I want you to understand that. Last time when I correctly guessed it did not demonstrate my powers, it just demonstrated my willingness to submit to the power of the caffeine. - Okay, are you both ready?
- I am so ready, but you have to, I want you to really
think about the number, send it to me- - Hold on, send it to me too. - Send it out into this room, okay? - [Stevie] Okay. - 'Cause maybe this is, maybe
I can submit to the caffeine. - [Stevie] Okay, I'm
thinking of it right now. - I have a number. - Okay, I'm gonna tell Mikayla
- Think a little bit harder, Stevie. - [Stevie] Okay. - Uh huh, okay. - [Stevie] I'm gonna whisper
my number to Mikayla. Mikayla's gonna come on camera with a blank white board. She's gonna write down the
number that I whispered to her. - Okay, okay, okay. You go to the zoo, you will see things pooping. - Usually it's not the zookeepers. - Mikayla, you got your own board. - I do, it has my name on it. I feel special. - As you should. - Okay, so if you just
want to turn that around and write your number down. We have already written our numbers down so we're not gonna like be looking at like how long
the pen is on the thing or anything like that. Okay Link, do you want to
show your number first? - 81. The number came to me,
I just wrote it now. I didn't ask any questions. I had no conversations with the afterlife. - Yeah, you can't question it. The number that came to
me very strongly was 50. - Well. - Doesn't seem like she's freaking out. - Little bit. 'Cause maybe, it's 47. - Ah crap. - You were only three away. - [Stevie] I was sending
you vibes so hard. - One out of 100, that's pretty good. - Is the wifi on? - What? Is the wifi on, what? - I told you I wanted
the wifi off before this. I think I might've gotten
an internet number. - You know what? This'll take us out with a bang. - You want me to crush this glass on your? - Thanks for subscribing
and clicking that bell. - Okay dad. (Link grunting) You know what time it is. - Hi, I'm Ricky from Raleigh and here's my view of Hillsborough Street. I just graduated from NC State University, my two degrees, my freshman job was at Gumbee's, but it's time to spin
the Wheel of Mythicality. - Dang, there's a lot of history there. Go Wolf Pack, - [Both] Congratulations - Ricky. Click the top link to watch us match the crew member to their psychological
monster in Good Mythical More. - Oh and to find out where the Wheel of
Mythicality's gonna land. - [Rhett] Check out Ronstadt, the scripted podcast we're starring in on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. Be sure to follow so you
don't miss an episode.
This one was hilarious! Crushing a can on Link's ass made me laugh louder than I have in a very long time.
This was so crazy, like the Red Bull one - I loved it. Hope Links booty is ok π
The dad cam blessed us today
Can someone please make a GIF of Rhett catching the pen at 9:17?
Matt Carney with one of the funniest closing lines ever in GMMore today haha
Commenting as I start the video to say, uh oh...
Edit: It's OK Mikayla, I also don't know how to ride a bike, and I am almost 33.
Edit 2: I simultaneously love this series and worry about them each time they do it π
The what did I see at the zoo segment was hilarious π
i canβt believe Link did that motion to Rhettβs dad cam ππππππ
Good LORD, Link arched the hell out of his back for that can.
