If you want to test out a quiz show,
you could get a shiny-floor studio, a dozen cameras,
and splash out on ludicrous, expensive props and prizes...
Or you can get some friends, a garage in the middle of nowhere, and some boxes of sand.
Welcome to the Game Garage.
Today in the Game Garage, we are playing Weight For It, along with...
Luke Cutforth, hello.
Evan Edinger, hello.
And you guys make stuff for YouTube.
And we live together.
We live together.
Also, they're my friends.
Let's be honest here, I've literally just roped my friends in for this game, so...
Thank you so much for coming.
-Thanks so much for playing. -Thank you.
In front of you are your buckets.
The better the answers you choose, the more sand will go in that bucket.
Whoever has the bucket on the ground...
-...are you okay there? -He's got a cleaner bucket.
-Okay, yes. -Look at this.
-Look at ol' dirty bucket over here. -I'm sorry.
We're in a garage, one of our buckets is dirty, I apologise(!)
-It's fine. -You're gonna be answering questions.
The better the answer, the more weight there is inside the box
and the more sand you'll be putting in your bucket.
Whoever's bucket is on the ground at the end of the question, wins that question.
One of you is going to be going through to the final where you could win up to 5,000 pence.
-Pence! -Pence.
First question, we have nine airlines here and the question is:
Which of these airlines has the largest fleet of planes?
Ooh!
So the more planes, the heavier the box.
You want to go for the heaviest boxes and the biggest fleet.
Oh, so this is a tough one, because there's some competitors here.
Yeah, Evan, you won the toss so you get first pick on this round.
Largest fleet of planes, regardless of what they're used for?
Yeah. Largest fleet of planes.
I am actually gonna go with American Airlines.
-American Airlines. -Yes.
Any particular reason for that?
They're, like, the biggest airline.
I know that it might be some other ones in terms of other...
But I feel like... they must have a lot of planes.
They fly to totally loads of domestics.
I'm friends with a couple of flight attendants from American.
Okay, here you go.
-That feels like a heavy boy. -Oh, yeah!
Ooh yeah!
-Oh no! -Alright, open it up.
Oh, that's a full boy. Ah!
-You want me to pour it? -Yeah, that's; that is an entire...
Oh!
If you spill it, it's on you but...
Well, it's on the floor rather.
Well, yeah.
That is the best answer on the board, so good start.
Hoo-ah!
Luke, we know that this isn't going to tip it right away, but the game's not over here.
-Uh-huh. -Which do you want to go for?
Okay, so I think China Southern are a pretty good bet
because China is a massive country and we don't think about China existing.
Qatar Airlines is a good bet, Delta's a good bet, FedEx is a good bet.
-I'm gonna go for Qatar. -Qatar?
-Yes. -Okay.
I reckon that was bad.
I'm already not feeling Qatar.
-Alright, here you go. -You didn't struggle as much with that one.
I'll be honest, I didn't struggle much with that one.
-I could've probably sold that a little bit better. -Oh no! It's not even...
It's a luxury airline, so that's gonna have not as many customers.
It's not even half full.
They're Airbus 380s and things.
Oh, that seems like someone who knows about airlines over there.
I know, I love aeroplanes.
So just to compare those two answers, American Airlines has more than 1500 planes.
Qatar has 220.
-So...
-Oh! -It's not the best start.
One more pick each.
Luke, you start this pair; what do you want to go for?
I'm gonna go for British Airways.
Alright.
What I love is every time you mention an airline, Evan just kind of makes...
-Yeah, I know. -... a facial expression, a noise, or something.
Can I change?
No, I'm gonna keep with this one, British Airways.
-I think... -You didn't go for any of my safe bets.
You literally went for ones I would not have chosen.
Alright, FedEx.
China, I'd say is like middle ground but it's definitely not up there.
British Airways.
Their base is in Xian.
Let's see if it tips.
If it doesn't tip here then we know who the first question's gone to.
I reckon this one's going to tip but he's then got another one.
-It's not even half full. -I know what I'm going for second
-because you didn't pick... -Oh, it's half full.
British Airways is good.
Now, let's... let's just be sure. There is a little bit of friction on this sometimes.
So let's just even that up and just let it...
Yeah, no.
I still want another pick.
That's really adding insult to this injury. You went...
Yeah, unfortunately, Qatar Airways, the second worst answer on the board: 220.
British Airways is the next one down the list with 275.
Between them, they have about 500 planes; American Airlines has three times that much.
But just out of interest, what would you have gone for?
Delta.
-Delta is the second best answer on the board. -Oh!
You always go with the big US airlines that are flying domestic, insanely.
-Thank you. -I'm not American, this is not fair.
That is... that is almost full, that one.
By the way, I would never fly with American or with Delta; they're both horrible.
But I will choose them when I have to.
-That is... -Oh!
So that is a pretty comprehensive victory on the first question there, Evan,
but it's only the first question, it's worth one cup of sand in the play-off.
So if we're ready, let's go with question two.
Question two: Luke, you're going to get first pick this time.
We have nine Stephen King movies.
Okay.
And we are looking for the most successful one by worldwide box office.
Unless it's got a year on it, we're talking about the original.
I am going to go with, just because it's been a phenomenon recently, It (2017).
There was absolutely no reaction from Evan on that one.
Just absolute poker face.
-Did it flop massively? -Alright, well we're gonna find out.
-I don't really pay attention to anything. -It does seem a bit...
-Here is your pick. -Oooh!
I was genuinely worried you were dropping that then.
-Whoa! -Oh yeah. That as a good choice, bud.
-Nice! -Evan, your pick.
The Green Mile is one of my favourite films of all time, stars Tom Hanks, so obviously a good one.
It's critically acclaimed; I don't really know if it did well in the box office.
Out of all these, obviously, Dark Tower's the newest
and I can't image that doing well but I'm gonna go with Pet Sematary.
It's classic, I think that one... Yeah, I'm gonna go with Pet Sematary for number...
Pet Sematary. Alright, here you go.
Haha!
Really excited to see this one, here we go.
It's a light boy.
It had sand in it.
-This is important. -A single grain.
Make sure you've got all the sand out there, because...
-You're gonna need it. -Here we go.
-So the bad news there, Evan... -Yeah.
-... is that was the worst answer on the board. -The worst.
That was the worst answer on the board. It took $57 million compared to "It"'s 700.
-So... -Oooh!
-Did you just dab? -Absolutely not.
We've got another pair of picks.
Evan, you've got to pick...
Got one more.
At the last, I basically have to get second and then he...
You've got to tip the scales.
The only ones that I recognise film-wise are Dark Tower and Green Mile.
They're the ones I'm assuming are quite old; maybe successful,
I assumed I'd have heard about them.
I'm gonna go with The Green Mile at this point, as I just really liked the film.
-Alright. -Maybe it's not the way the rules should be, but...
-I thought it was a good film. -The Green Mile.
Oh, he's used two hands.
I used two hands on the last one.
-Hmm. He did it -I wonder.
-Oh no. -Well, hold on.
That's a little bit tipping that way, so let's just check.
-Okay. -If this doesn't... if I...
There we go, shake it a little.
If this doesn't go your way, Evan, then we know...
-Uh! -Yeah, because I picked last,
-like I said, you've got this. -Oh!
Unfortunately, all you need to do, Luke, is have enough sand to tip that your way.
Okay, I reckon it's between Carrie and The Dark Tower.
I'm gonna say Carrie.
Carrie.
-Oh, okay! -Oh god!
No, that's just I genuinely don't have enough body strength to do that.
-I think... -Oh, I mean...
I mean, you just need one pellet.
-Yeah, you just need enough to do it. -One grain.
Shall I see how little I can pour just to re-tip the balance?
Aargh!
-Yeah, I had to go for the last one, man. -Yeah, not much you could've done there.
Luke picked the best answer on the board to start and unfortunately, you went with the worst.
Carrie is actually the sixth answer on the board there, only $84million,
but it's enough to tip the balance in your favour.
-The Green Mile was second? -The Green Mile was the second best answer.
Good for you.
So two cups of sand to you, as we go into the play-off.
This is the play-off where we're going to decide which of you goes through to the final
to maybe win 5,000 pence.
So Evan, you won the first round, quite decisively there, and that gets you one full cup...
-That's not full. -... of sand.
-So there you go. -That's not full.
You know what, he's right. That's...
I lost from a very small amount last round, I'm not messing around with the sand.
There we go, one topped off cup of sand there.
In it goes.
Thank you.
-But Luke... -Yeah boy.
You won the second one, so...
Oh yeah, the good one.
One cup of sand.
Thank you.
A little bit of friction in the seesaw as ever, but I think the second cup...
Oh, that's very nice.
Oh? Easy...!
There we go, alright.
The play-off works like this.
Luke, you're in the lead, you get to make the first pick.
Darn!
-Wow, very upsetting. -It's upsetting.
And we're looking for sports by the number of players on the field for one team.
-Can I call my dad? -Phone a dad.
Three of these answers are completely fake.
They're not just wrong; they're not even sports.
Oh!
So three of these are empty and with you having the first pick...
Oh!
You have the highest probability of making a wrong choice
unless you choose a right one; that gives me the worst...
I can choose one that I know is right, as in I know it's a real sport.
-I'm gonna play this safe. -Okay.
And I'm gonna choose polo.
Polo. How many players do you think there are?
I think there's nine.
Alright.
Ooh.
That's the only one we both knew.
Ooh, it's quite light(!)
You already had one up above me as well.
-Little bit higher, little bit higher, there we go. -Very nice.
Very nice, this is a very nice amount of sand.
I will tell you, there are four players on the field in polo for one team.
Wait, so if I can pick one that somehow has more than four, there'd be more sand than that?
-Yes. -Yes.
Some of these, I'm like, 'They're totally fake.'
Like, and maybe they're not.
Some of these, I think, maybe are real but they sound fun.
I liked the film so I'm gonna go with Kho Kho...?
Are you just taking a guess there?
Is it... do you know that's a sport?
No?
I don't know, I've not heard of any of these.
Forty-sevens sounds familiar as maybe a washers game.
-Alright. -But kho kho is... it has K-H.
It's either that or I would have;
I'm not gonna say what I would have chosen but there's another one that looks real.
Kho kho.
Oh!
I don't think that was acting there.
Oh wow!
-Your boy! -Look!
Dang it!
Luck be a lady tonight.
-Oh wow! -Even with your extra cups though...
No, no, I reckon that's even.
Yeah, look at that. Oh.
-Kho kho has nine players on the field for one team. -Nine?
That's still not even there.
So you were right to even it up there; it's basically a tie.
We've got...
-That's just rude. -Nice try.
-I mean... -Nice try.
No, it is. It's, that's how it is.
Is that Yeah...
That was just a hand to help.
-You're right. -Rude.
You're right, he's dusted it flat and it's gone that way, so...
-Physics. -Yeah, Kho Kho has nine players on a team,
it's a tag game from the Indian subcontinent, so well done.
Was that just a complete guess?
It... it looks... it had a 'k' next to an 'h',
and I thought that sounds like a legit thing for somewhere I've never been.
Alright, final pair of picks.
Whoever's bucket is lower at the end of this pair is going through.
One has just been calling out to me and if you guys made this up,
I'ma be really angry that you did a really good job,
you keep looking at it so I'm scared that maybe I shouldn't
-but I'm going to go with sepak takraw. -Sepak takraw.
-That was what I was gonna pick. -Oh!
I'll tell you this much, it's not empty.
Well, let's see how much is in it.
That's some... that's some sand.
Oh, that's sand, then some.
That's... hmm...
Well, I didn't pick a big fake one.
-Is this like from the areas of Indonesia? -Yeah.
Because this looks just like Balinese type of spelling in English.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, played with a basket weave football, apparently.
Luke, the pressure is on here.
-I don't think I can win this. -There are still three wrong answers
with empty boxes there.
You've got... no, you had the advantage at the start.
There are also good answers left there.
Can I win? Is it possible?
Yes, yes it is.
In fact, I'll tell you this much; if it wasn't possible for you to win,
I wouldn't be asking you this question.
Last pick is yours. Go for it.
Okay, so I think forty-sevens sounds like one that you've made up.
-Right. -Because it's a question
about how many are in each team and the number is quite obvious.
Yeah, you can talk this through 'cos there's no chance of you giving any clue to Evan here.
But I should point out, these are not my questions.
I'm not the question writer here.
Forty-sevens does sound like either it's made-up.
-Or... the best answer. -'Forty-sevens.'
Like, there is no in between there, it's one of those two.
I'm gonna go with...
forty-sevens.
You're gonna go with forty-sevens?
Yeah.
-Just... just out of interest. -Yes.
What was the other one you would have gone for?
-That means I lost. -No, it doesn't.
The other one I would have gone for would have been kabaddi.
You would have gone for kabaddi.
Just to have a look here, kabaddi into the bucket over here, is quite full.
Ooh!
Kabaddi has a lot of sand in it.
Oh!
That would have probably taken you over, but it's not the best answer on the board.
Ooh!
There's forty seven people in this game, maybe.
-I don't know. -Luke.
Oh!
Unfortunately, forty-sevens as we prove it out, is completely...
entirely made-up by our question editor, I am sorry.
Evan, you're through to the final.
Oh my... what were the other fake ones?
The ones that were fake: Futsal is real.
-That's... -Football but said with a lisp.
It's a football variant, essentially.
Mega Reagga is, you're absolutely right, it's entirely fake.
It's an anagram of Game Garage.
Calvinball is fake, that's from the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes.
Korfball was the other good answer on the board.
-Really? -Kho kho was the best... with nine.
-Oh my god. -Korfball was the second best with eight.
Evan, you're through.
Are you okay there, Luke?
We have been back and forth though, that was really close.
Where do I go now? Do I just walk off?
-Yeah. -Can I just sit here?
We don't have a nice walk-of-shame rig,
it's just, you can wait over there in the corner of the garage.
Cheers for that.
That was intense.
'I'll be back.' Ooh!
-Sorry. -Leave that in there.
Yeah, we can leave that in.
Evan, welcome to the final.
-How are you feeling? -Glad to be here, very nervous. Yeah.
Alright, this is your bucket and it's currently empty.
You're gonna get to pick three things off there.
-Okay. -To outweigh whatever is on the other side,
but you do get a choice.
It's gonna be you against the anvil.
If you go for the lightest weight to play against, you're going to be going for 1,000 pence
but you'll only need three fair answers over here to balance it.
Go for the medium weight, it's gonna be worth 2,000 pence
and you'll need three reasonable answers off here.
Or you can go for the heavy weight.
5,000 pence if you get it, but you'll need three good answers off here to outweigh it.
You don't need the top three| but you need something close.
You can see the category; you're not gonna know the exact question.
We've got nine theme parks here.
What do you reckon it could be?
Well, I know Wurstelprater in Vienna, I've been.
That is, it has quite a huge prater, or quite a big Ferris wheel
so it might have something to do with biggest Ferris wheels, just from that knowledge.
It could be maybe juxtaposition to a city centre,
only because Wurstelprater is like in zone two, it's pretty great.
Er, or I could be number of people visiting, so obviously, Alton Towers would be at the bottom.
Cedar Point, really popular, it has one of the fastest coasters in the world,
it's got some good ones there.
I don't think anything important is ever from the Isle of Wight,
so I doubt that but I don't really know what this is gonna be.
How do you feel about the category?
Er... I'm, I'm not super confident, I'm not super unconfident.
I feel like I would definitely want to choose something in the middle at this one.
Alright, so it's your choice.
1,000 pence, 2,000 pence, 5,000 pence?
-What do you want to go for? -I feel like I want to go with the 2,000 pence.
-2,000 pence. -Yes.
Alright, we are going for the middle weight.
Can we have the middle weight, please.
That is an anvil.
Okay.
I will tell you that the question is...
theme parks by years of operation.
-Ah. -So we're not looking for the oldest necessarily;
we're looking for the one that has been open for the most seasons, if you like,
the most summers, the most years.
So that makes sense there's a lot of British now, because they're old AF.
So, hmm...
The World of Adventures one just sounds like such an old name that I can't imagine it being recent.
I want to choose Wurstelprater as one of them.
I know that's an old one and let's hope it's been, it's open in winter, I don't really know that.
I also want to go with, you know what, the World of Adventures is scaring me.
I feel like I'm in between that or, oh, Pleasure Beach.
No, no, that's a water one. The water one, it's gotta be new.
Alton Towers is old.
I went last year and it felt like it was still 25 years old.
Okay, I'm really sorry here, I'm so exhausted. We're gonna 100% go with Wurstelprater.
I'm gonna throw in a little bit of, erm... Dyrehavsbakken.
It might be new but we're throwing that in, and I want to throw in a British one as well.
You know what, give me Dreamland, Margate.
Are you sure? All those three?
-Are you gonna lock those in? -I'm gonna lock those in.
So we're gonna get Wurstelprater, Dreamland
and you had to pick the one I can't pronounce, Dyrehavsbakken.
-Sorry, Denmark. -Yeah, sorry.
Of those, which are you most confident about?
Erm... none.
I mean, I liked Wurstelprater, I've been there and it seemed pretty darn old.
-Let's save that; let's save that for last. -Which one are you least confident about?
Er... the Danish one.
The Danish one, alright, let's go for the Danish one first.
Ooh. Here you go.
Ooh.
Beat that anvil!
Pour!
Alright, it's a good start.
Now it's marked on my pronunciation guide here as 'Yer-havs-banna'.
We'll go for that, Yer-havs-banna, 436 years of operation.
That was not a bad choice.
Thank god I didn't pick Cedar Point, Ohio.
That state hasn't existed for longer than that.
Now, your next one is going to be Dreamland in Margate.
Dreamland, Margate.
That's... okay. Okay.
Okay.
-Okay. -Let's see if this tips it.
Oh, not quite but I saw that slightly start to wobble.
Yeah, it's starting to wobble.
We'll see how we are.
Dreamland, Margate: 135 years of operation.
-Okay. -It's been going a while. Vienna.
-Vienna, Wurstelprater. -This has to do it.
-Hopefully. -This has to...
A couple of grains might set me off here.
For 2,000 pence.
Ooh!
Ooh!
He sounds confident.
Yes!
We beat the anvil, of anvil one!
Congratulations.
First of all, that is 2,000 pence. There you go, that is yours.
Mom, I did it! Subscribe to my channel, please(!)
-Mom, please...(!) -Yeah, you're right.
Dyrehavsbakken was the best answer on the board, 436.
Wurstelprater the second best answer on the board, 253.
Dreamland was fifth. Cedar Point does actually beat it.
Really? Ooh!
Chessington World of Adventures which you nearly went for, 31 years.
-It was the newest and youngest park on there. -That was a tricky one though, because...
-Evan, congratulations. -Thank you very much.
2,000 pence is yours.
That's been the Game Garage, we'll see you around.
