GMM 1220.1: 3 Weird Ways to Open A Cereal Box

Today we put Frosted Flakes in a guillotine. Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good Mythical morning! Mythical beasts, when I’m feeling really depressed or really happy or really medium, I eat a bowl of cereal. I am a serial cereal eater. You know this. But there’s a dark side to cereal consumption: struggling to open the dang box! Here’s what Link’s getting at. When this segment’s sponsor, Kellog’s, asked us to help them celebrate the art of unboxing with the YouTube unbox channel, we knew immediately how we wanted to celebrate. Mhmm, it’s time for Let’s get Weird with it! Opening a cereal box. (ethereal music) If you’ve ever run in the same circles as a medieval astronomer or a disgraced queen, then you’ve probably been to a beheading. The problem is, they happen so early in the morning, and it can be difficult to fit breakfast in. But there’s an easy solution. Slip the executioner a fiver and get him to guillotine your Frosted Flakes. Oh man, I don’t know how I feel about this. We have a guillotine! Yeah, and why are we letting you hold it? Oh, it’s heavy too. Now, we usually don’t let Link play with sharp things, but we’re reintroducing him to sharp things, and we’re starting with a guillotine. – Link Which is just so questionable on so many levels. This is a functioning– Hey, I’ll handle the cereal, okay? Oh, you want to push the cereal under? That’s perfect. I’ll just stay here and hold this rope that’s keeping the guillotine from falling. Okay. Oh yeah, you got it going right down the middle. (boop boop) (boop boop) All right, here we go. Let’s open this cereal box! Let it rip, Link. Three, two, one. (bang) (excited shouts) – [Link] Oh my goodness! (bang) (slow motion excited shouts) – [Link] Oh my goodness! Yeah, okay. Oh man, it cut it right in half, but there’s some just sort of– (crunching) It wasn’t a clean cut. – [Rhett] That’s enough to work with. Hey Link, what’s in this carton. Milk. – [Link] Ah, the fruits of our labor. Mhmm. (crunching) Doesn’t taste bloody at all. (ethereal harp) Autumn means yard work, and yard work means hunger, and hunger means cereal. But it’s impossible to whack your weeds and get the cereal box open at the same time. Or is it? (laughing) Now, Link, I know you’ve got some weedwhack experience. Yeah, but, you know what, you can have some fun with it today. You still whack your weeds? Uh, no, I’m above it. Okay. Here we go. Whoa now, it’s already in a vice, which is good. (buzzing) Feel the power! Coming in hot! (grinding) – [Link] Why are you going so low? There we go! Oh! He’s vomiting out the Frosted Flakes! (buzzing) Look at that! Look, whoa whoa whoa. Stop it, stop it. Did you do that on purpose? That’s brilliant! – [Rhett] Yeah. – [Link] He’s vomiting out Frosted Flakes! – [Rhett] Yeah, I thought about this for a long time. (growling) Link, could you scoot my bowl? Because you can’t have cereal without milk, man. – [Link] (growling voice) Can’t have cereal without milk. – [Rhett] Scoot my bowl, bro. – [Link] (growling voice) It’s great! Here we go. No, I wouldn’t — I would stay away from that. You don’t want me here? No, no. (buzzing) Do it! McLaughlin. Coming in cold. (buzzing) (grinding) – [Rhett] Here we go, here we go, here we go. (grinding) Yeah! (excited shouts) Here, get this away, now go get it! No, I need a bigger hole. I need a bigger hole. No, no. We’re gonna need a bigger hole. No! (buzzing) There we go. All right, I’m — There we go. – [Link] That’s it. – [Rhett] Exactly what we needed. You got the spoons? Close your eyes and hold out your hands. You’re not listening to me, are you? There you go. One for you, and one for me. I don’t know why I handed it to you, so give it back to me. (crunching) That looks good. (slurping) Clean up on aisle right here. (ethereal harp) I’ve never been to a sumo wrestling match, but I can imagine I’d get hungry while watching one. Of course, if I’m hungry, I’m gonna eat the cereal that I snuck into the arena inside my trench coat. But how the heck am I gonna get the box open? I’d probably just throw it into the ring and see what happens. Yama, come on out. (intense music) Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the show the two-time world sumo champion and the heaviest Japanese human in recorded history Yama. (clapping) Do what you can. (slap) (grunt) (slap) (grunt) (flopping) (slow motion grunt) (laughing) (grunting) Flattened. (laughing) (excited shouts) Look at that. Well, that’s what happened, Link. Look at that. It kind of worked. Okay. (laughing) He opens the milk too. (laughing) This is amazing. I mean, it’s kind of like, if you would have just done it, but it’s so much more powerful. We’ll the first part I couldn’t have done. You gotta flatten it first. I think he got the air out of the bag. Thank you. Mmm. Thank you so much. – [Yama] Thank you. Good? – [Link] Mhmm.
