00:00Camera now recording.
00:07Thank you, Dad.
00:11Dad!
00:15Hello?
00:16I'm on the doorbell, not your phone.
00:21What do you mean, you're on the doorbell?
00:24Hi, you are currently being recorded.
00:27Your house is a camera.
00:32At any given time, tens of millions of homes are recording your every move.
00:43And if you're watching at just the right moment...
00:55I'm so sorry.
00:56You'll catch your neighbors when they thought no one was looking.
01:03I have never in my life heard Matt shriek like that.
01:06It was crazy.
01:07Come join.
01:14The Neighborhood Watch.
01:16You are currently being recorded.
01:32A couple is surprised to find their umbrella upside down.
01:37I don't know how that happened.
01:38The chair was knocked over, too.
01:40You think it happened...
01:41It didn't happen in the storm last night, did it?
01:43Yeah.
01:44Isn't that odd?
01:45Geez, did we get that big of a gust today?
01:55Oh, my God.
01:59Let's go.
02:00Let's go.
02:00Let's go.
02:00That's not just happened.
02:03Something just snuck into this house through an open patio door.
02:07Oh, my God.
02:08Oh!
02:13Oh!
02:15Oh!
02:18Oh!
02:20Oh!
02:24Oh!
02:24Oh!
02:24Oh!
02:25Oh!
02:27Oh!
02:29Oh!
02:30What the hell?
02:31Are you OK?
02:32Yeah!
02:33I couldn't get the car in there.
02:35Hark!
02:38It's called Big Booty Queen.
02:39This kid has just written a new rap song.
02:43Ready?
02:44I'm a king with the Big Booty Queen.
02:47We went to Booga King, got a big black powder heavier than my Big Booty Queen.
02:50Dang, that's crazy.
02:51And then I said, why do you look like a father for not 200 days?
02:55Get out of my gap to the guy who worked at Booga King.
02:59And then he said, my Big Booty Queen is fat.
03:02Then I threw him out of the window because we don't talk about that guy.
03:07Woo!
03:09OK.
03:14A couple is about to get a surprise visit.
03:18Being up in western North Carolina, up in a national rainforest essentially, we're surrounded by a ton of wildlife.
03:24It's a big appeal for the area, just being with nature and never knowing what you're going to experience.
03:30Right.
03:30Every time you walk out the door, you're something.
03:35I'm just sitting on the couch with my coffee and my two dogs.
03:42And all I hear is Matt scream like Homer Simpson.
03:46And I'm like, what in the world?
03:50Matt, stop.
03:51Matt, stop.
03:52Matt, stop.
03:52Matt, stop.
03:53Matt, stop.
03:53I have never in my life heard Matt shriek like that.
03:56It was crazy.
03:57It was just so unexpected that it just, the initial reaction was just, is there really a bat inside with
04:05us?
04:07My brain was saying, get to the door.
04:09But in the process of that, the bat was still circling and diving.
04:13It swooped right at my head several times.
04:19Matt, open the f***ing flat door.
04:21I always stay cool in high pressure situations.
04:24It's my superpower.
04:27I just kept saying, Matt, open the door.
04:29And he wasn't.
04:30He was running around screaming.
04:31And so, yes, I was in the light.
04:34Nobody else was reacting.
04:35So I felt like I had to make up for the dog's lack of reaction and Jenny's lack of reaction.
04:39Sometimes I call Matt the nuclear reactor.
04:43Matt, let it out.
04:50Open the front door.
04:51The more Matt moved, the more the bat would swoop at just him.
04:55Which made me very thankful because I was trying to contain both of the dogs.
04:59I just had to keep my cool while that bat chased Matt everywhere.
05:01But what I've since learned is that the best thing to do is actually back yourself up against the wall
05:06because bats really can't see.
05:08All right, it's on the ceiling.
05:13Once I got the door open, the bat had perched itself up on a beam on our ceiling.
05:18And that was it.
05:18It didn't fly after that.
05:21Where's Jason?
05:22What?
05:23Where's Jason?
05:23Jason is one of the wildlife experts.
05:27Kind of who you call if you have squirrels in your attic or a bear in your crawl space.
05:33How the f*** do you get in here?
05:34I don't f*** know.
05:37We already had called because we knew we still had a few bats outside.
05:41We were doing some work in our chimneys and they were coming down our chimney into our screen porch.
05:46But it never occurred to me in a million years that there was one inside.
05:50I pointed out where the bat was.
05:52We showed it to him and he did his job and safely removed the bat.
05:58It was a happy ending.
05:59I think if it were to happen again, maybe a little less shrieking.
06:03But that's what made it look funny.
06:04Right.
06:20Well?
06:42Oh my god.
07:02A furniture move becomes family legend.
07:05I have to wait, Max.
07:07I thought, oh, I can balance this.
07:09Let's go.
07:21This delivery guy is looking for a shortcut.
07:38was the only mobile device damals?
07:41I have a building.
07:45We're putting�� to the mic on camera.
07:45Because it's such a stupid detаль.
07:46That trick went in there in jollam, fumey, but I never did it.
07:50One of the other puzzles that f*** � him from example dos.
08:18This man is preparing for a mulch delivery.
08:47At this home, a family is trying to move the desk.
08:50Now Matt, when you start to pull it out, you're going to have to be pretty strong.
08:55I was going to grad school and I decided that I would want a desk in order to become a
09:00real scholar and I was going to use the desk to do scholarly stuff.
09:05And rather than spend money on like a new desk, I decided that I would like to have the very
09:10fancy, very heavy old oak desk that my parents had up in the upstairs of our house.
09:16In other words, you were cheap.
09:19Yeah, that's a good way of putting it.
09:21You don't want to break the gutter, so you just want to have the gutter as like a handling point.
09:25There's only one room upstairs and it's a spiral staircase to get up.
09:29So anything that gets up there has to come over the balcony.
09:32So we decided, I had decided that we were just going to pick it up and lift it and set
09:38it down without realizing that it's about a 200 pound desk.
09:41It was not 200 pounds.
09:43There's some discrepancy about the weight.
09:47Nah, bring it down.
09:48Slowly.
09:50Max, you go on the back end.
09:52The plan was simple.
09:54Me and my mother were going to lower it down to my brother at which point I would run downstairs
09:59to help Sam.
10:01I thought that I would be strong enough to lift 700 pounds over my head.
10:05But it's getting heavier and heavier.
10:07Now I want you to gently bring it down and I will let you know when I have it.
10:12When I heard about it, my first question was, don't you want to wait until your dad comes home?
10:16And they both were like, oh no, we got this, we can do it.
10:19And I thought, oh, well then, okay.
10:22You see how that turned out?
10:25Keep on coming.
10:26Give it an angle.
10:27Give it an angle, Max.
10:28I can have, I have the weight, Max.
10:30Sam's yelling at us to give it an angle.
10:32And to this day, our family still doesn't quite know what he meant by that.
10:36So now, whenever someone says or does something completely imbecilic, we say, oh, give it an angle.
10:42Give it an angle.
10:43You got it?
10:43Yes, no.
10:45Max, go.
10:46Oh my god, I dropped it.
10:47Mom, you, you're fine, let go.
10:49You're not doing anything.
10:50God bless our mother.
10:52She did everything to try to help.
10:53It was a high pressure situation and I was 22 years old.
10:56It was very low pressure.
10:58It was moving a desk.
10:59You try having 1,000 pounds over your head.
11:02Sam likes to make it sound like Abraham Lincoln signed the Gettysburg Address on this desk.
11:08This particle board, MDF, whatever you want to call it.
11:11What do I do?
11:12Nothing.
11:13Just let go.
11:14When that desk hit me in the head, I immediately thought, oh, I can balance this.
11:20And I take those wobbly steps and then my next thought is, I don't have this.
11:25This is just not going to end well.
11:32It hurt my pride more than anything else.
11:36It's still together.
11:37Just one leg came up.
11:38I wasn't super concerned that he was concussed.
11:43In fact, that didn't even occur to me that he could be.
11:45We do think he's still brain damaged.
11:47I think that happened long before this incident.
11:49This could be repaired.
11:50Did you drop it?
11:51We did.
11:52I worked in a high school and I was sitting in a study hall and my phone went ding.
11:58What the hell was that coming from?
12:00From nothing down.
12:01Did you drop and break the desk?
12:03I didn't even know we had a ring doorbell.
12:05So I had absolutely no idea this was going to be permanently recorded.
12:09Well, I just wish I had a shirt on during the video.
12:12One of the legs he broke in.
12:14Wood blew that back on though.
12:16And then the back can, otherwise it's fine.
12:20I did end up taking it to graduate school.
12:23The irony is it only served as basically a shelf.
12:26It was, yeah, it was basically a shelf or a giant paperweight.
12:29I didn't use it at all.
12:30So we didn't have to worry about it again.
12:32Just got to give it an angle next time then.
12:39This dad is enjoying the VR set he got for Christmas.
12:53This kid is also playing with virtual reality.
13:08This little boy's Halloween is about to take an unexpected turn.
13:12I didn't think this through, like, uh-oh.
13:15They may not appreciate my humor.
13:16It will help me.
13:17I have to pull that out.
13:17No, I am ready to turn.
13:26The battery must be on my dimension.
13:28The battery must be on my phone.
13:30I am ready to turn into the room.
13:37All right, I did the battery must be on my phone.
13:40while no one is home.
13:56This tired nurse is used to scanning her key fob at work.
14:33I love Halloween since I was a kid, trick-or-treaters coming at the door is like one of my
14:38favorite
14:39things.
14:39I love it and I try to make it really fun for them.
14:42There she is.
14:44I do love wearing an inflatable costume.
14:47Where are you?
14:48This way.
14:50I have dressed up as a dinosaur.
14:52She got caught by the branches.
14:54Out walking my dog in the middle of the day or just random things like that.
15:02My silly side really comes out during Halloween.
15:05You're killing me.
15:07Where's your face?
15:08I wanted to surprise you.
15:10We moved in 2022 and so we were actually fairly new to the neighborhood.
15:14Being this was our first year in the house, I was really looking forward to Halloween that
15:19year.
15:21I had to get a costume for my sister's Halloween party and when I saw the chicken I just thought
15:25it was hilarious to me so I got it.
15:27I just remember pacing the house because you can't sit down in it for it to stay fully inflated.
15:34You have to keep it on.
15:36And, you know, talking to my husband, I'm like, what if nobody comes?
15:38And that's when I heard the little knock.
15:45What do you think?
15:46Please don't think I'm a creepy neighbor.
15:53I was so excited to greet my first trick-or-treater and he absolutely has a meltdown.
16:01I didn't think this through like, uh-oh.
16:03Like, I'm new to the neighborhood.
16:06Nobody knows me.
16:07They may not-they may not appreciate my humor.
16:10Send me your therapy.
16:12I'm sorry.
16:14I couldn't get out of the thing fast enough so I'm trying to take the costume off to
16:18let him know that it's safe, you know, I'm not a real chicken.
16:22Bye.
16:22We'll talk later.
16:24He wouldn't even take candy from me.
16:26Like, I was trying to give him candy.
16:27He didn't want any.
16:29He wanted nothing to do with me.
16:34Thank you, guys.
16:34I feel terrible.
16:37I feel so bad.
16:40He cried the whole way down the driveway and I just felt terrible.
16:44So that's when I got the nickname Chicken Lady.
16:46That has carried with me.
16:47I have had neighbors remind me that they still think of me as a chicken lady.
16:52And I actually worried about the little boy for the whole year.
16:56It never left my mind.
16:58I didn't have closure on it until the next Halloween when they came back.
17:01The dogs are losing it.
17:03Oh, that is okay.
17:04Wait, the rocks are not briefed.
17:06Do you remember when you answered the door last year in the chicken costume?
17:09Was it you?
17:09It was.
17:10Do you need that briefed it up?
17:12Was it just you?
17:13Oh, my gosh.
17:14Is it you?
17:15Do you remember the chicken?
17:17You're the little pizza?
17:17Are you the pizza?
17:18Yeah.
17:19I was the chicken.
17:19That was what I was waiting for.
17:22And so we had that reunion there and it was really cool.
17:25And that's when I actually got to show them the video.
17:27They thought it was hilarious.
17:34I'm still going to dress up.
17:35I still think it's hilarious and still have a lot of fun with it.
17:39But I did not ever answer the door in an inflatable ever again.
17:44I probably won't.
17:47This was a one and done.
17:52This dad is trying to get rid of a wasp's nest.
17:55I can absolutely hear with this football.
17:57Do it.
17:58Do it.
17:59Get ready to run because they're going to come.
18:01Do it.
18:03Do it.
18:07Don't try to go out with the children in their lives.
18:12Do it.
18:13Do it.
18:15Do it.
18:19Do it.
18:20Are you okay?
18:21Yeah.
18:22I'm okay.
18:34Holy hell.
