We Go Magnet Fishing

We went magnet fishing in a lake. Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. We do a lot of stuff within these studio walls and right here at this desk. Mm-hmm. But you know what? Sometimes, we just get a hankering for something that cannot be contained. by this desk and this studio. Mm-hmm. For instance, magnet fishing.

Magnet fishing. You may have seen little clips of magic where people are pulling stuff that sticks to. magnets out of the depths and celebrating its awesomeness or it's fill in the blankness. Right? There's so many treasures to be found. It's basically like metal detecting but underwater. And we saw people doing this and thought to ourselves, I mean, why can't we just do that?

We're just some boys that want to have fun. Can we go outside again? Yes. We did. Welcome to Echo Park Lake in beautiful Los Angeles. You wanna know why they call it Echo Park? Watch this.

Echo. You think we're gonna do that stupid joke? Do you think we would do that stupid joke? Wait for, wait for it. Echo. Yes, we would. Never been magnet fishing before. Oh my gosh. But I've already caught my jacket. I can catch your jacket as well. Uh, I'm better at you. Oh, I can catch your magnet. All right, we're gonna make this a competition so that it's more interesting. Yes. We're gonna be competing over the course of three rounds. Pull it up. Grab the magnet. Don't hurt me now. Okay. All judged by our local official Scrappraiser, Chase.

Hello, Chase. Hi. What is our first challenge? All right, so round one. You guys are gonna give me the most stuff you can find. I'm, no, I don't know if that's gonna come off. Apparently that's not metal. So I want the total weight of your stuff. You're gonna have 10 minutes. Give me as much as you can from the lake. You want our total weight? Stuff is gonna get two points. Okay. Oh, we can include our total weight. Okay. Yeah. I mean, if you can fish yourself outta the lake, I will include it.

I have a distinct advantage. You ready? Yes. Time starts now. Okay. All right. Now this thing is strapped to us, so. I mean, how deep is it in there? We're gonna go in, maybe, if we throw it too hard. Oh, that was weak. I caught a whole bunch of rope here. There we go. This is probably not the type of water that you want to be getting in your mouth, right? I don't want to get in my mouth. Okay. Though. I got a string.

You can tell when you get so. Oh, you got something? Yo, it's sticking on something. You can see why this is so fun. Tossing and pulling. What? Oh my God. Look at what I got this time, Rhett. A cornstalk. It's a lock of hair. Oh my God, extensions. Oh, oh, oh, oh. I got corn too. Look how much corn I got. Oh. It's gone, baby. Look at us, we're like farmers. Yeah, look at that. I got maple. Nothing. Hold on, you would not believe the leafs that I'm getting. I actually would. I think that's a piece of a tarp.

Dude, we haven't gotten one piece of metal metallic thing? No, nothing. We're both like looking off, it's like, you don't really need eyes for this. I'm hoping for a Viking sword. Yeah, just a little spot treatment. Just a little spot treatment. I bet you there's something right here. Whoop, sorry. Five minutes. We ain't caught a thing, Chase. Here's a tip, try harder. Got some sort of a film strip. Is that a condom? You see the little bubble trail? Oh yeah. It looks like there's a creature over there. Is this a prank, Chase?

Not that I'm aware of. I think you're just bad at it. Huh, look at that. Oh. Another leaf. Oh, that's beautiful. Look at that, it's so nasty. What is that. Goose crap and soil. I need a wet wipe. Is that a syringe? I think this might be a metal free zone. All right, I'm gonna throw this one real far. Well, I stood on the rope. People make a living doing this? Not a good one. I got something this time. I can tell. Lawn chair. A wheelchair. Lawn chair. Oh. Or a wheelchair, I don't care what kind of chair it is.

Yeah, it's a metal chair. Long as it's a chair. Here we go. Here we go, here we go. Man. Nothing at all. You got nothing, you thought it was a chair. I tell you. You know, we, at a certain point, I have to come to grips with the fact that. we've taken a big risk coming outta here. You're saying maybe we should just stay inside. Maybe we should just stay inside, or. Two minutes. Two minutes left. Maybe we're inside boys. Start gathering up all the stuff you've got. I'm gonna pray silently. Yeah. Because I, I, I, I like to keep my prayers private. See, I think I've got something right here.

Did you notice that that church bell started ringing when I started praying silently? Huh? Well, I mean, that'll happen if you pray on the hour. Maybe. Hey, don't ruin it for me. This is supposed to be easier than fishing. Well, we've caught more than I usually catch while fishing. Caught a couple of leaves. Oh, it's some sort of a nature tube. That's, that's good, man. Is that a wig? Yeah, you got some hair too. I got a wig. Women coming around here. Tossing the wigs. Snatching and throwing extensions, man. Come on lake, give up the metal.

When they, when you see the tiktoks of magnet fishing, they, they pull, they put it in, they pull it out there's something on it. Dude, don't do that. Are you getting hot? If you hit me in the head, I'm gonna come over there and kill you. Chase, you think you can do better? Yeah. Come over here. And don't stand on the rope. You want me to pat you on the back while you're doing that? No, thank you. I got. Uh, nature tube. Nature tube.

Ah. Crap, look. Oh, look at me brother. Ah, nine hour, nine. What. A nine iron coming up for you right there. Look at that. Can you see? Look at that, look at that. Hey, how much do you think this weighs? What did that feel like? How much do you think this weighs? Okay, here's the crazy thing. More than hair. Here's the crazy thing, it didn't feel like anything. I thought that I had nothing. I had lost all hope and I pulled it up and I was like, whoa, this is a long thing.

Usually those things come in a bag, right? And it really, look. I mean, it sticks hard. 30 seconds. Sticks hard. 30. Oh, come on. Seconds. Okay, 30 seconds. I, I'm gonna try to catch all of the other clubs. I gotta, maybe this was once a golf course. So you didn't, oh, I'm definitely feeling something. Oh. Lady and the Tramp. So I get to weigh your magnet. All right, time. Oh, I can count this one. It went in. Me too. Yep. Bring in your loads. I, I feel like all we've done is wash a magnet.

I caught an, a golf club. Yeah, whatever. Okay. All right. All right guys. Yes. What do you got for me? I have a little history lesson for you. This place was once a golf course, apparently, because I have a. Monodyne Tour Blade DAIWA GK nine iron, for your consideration. All right. What do you got? Uh, I got plenty. I have, a nature leaf. You just dropped some of it.

And. You dropped more of it. I, I've got a wire here. Uhhuh. It's, it is USB on one end and it's just raw wire on the other end. Please don't. And then I've got some hair extensions or corn, I don't know what. And other nature flute pieces. Gosh. Oh, here's another Nature Flute. There you go. Cool, thank you. Alright, so Link, yours is seven ounces.

Yes. And Rhett, yours is 14. That's twice as much. That's twice as much. It's only one item. You wanna feel how heavy that is? Oh yeah, that's impressive. 14 ounces. That's impressive. There, you okay? Uh, now what? Well, welcome to the most romantically iconic thing to do in Los Angeles. To ride around on a swan that's on oxygen.

And then after 10 minutes of being out here, you start second guessing your. relationship, 'cause you're out in a pond. You might not have anything to talk about. Are you talking about this from personal experience? I've been out here once, yeah. But no, but no, not romantically. Okay, round two. I want you to find the most beautiful thing. The most beautiful thing wins three points. Ready? Go. All right. I kind of feel like we should just do a little trolling, you know what I'm saying?

Start yelling obscenities at joggers. Huh? Your dog sucks. I'm going in, I'm going in. Oh, that's, that's wet. Did you just say That's wet? That's wet and that's, well, it splashed on me. Well, I got a big knot, but I, I'm reeling the whole thing into my. Keep that on your, under your leg. Well, that's where the pedals are. Reel it in. I think we're gonna get stuff. And you know what, even if you don't get anything this whole time that we're. together, I still value this experience.

I mean, I have already gotten a golf club. A nine iron. Yeah, you're on cloud nine right now. And I'm down here in, uh, the doldrums. Nothing. You know, people walking by are just like, why are those two guys. throwing two anchors down repeatedly while having a romantic goose date? It's a swan. Oh, oh, oh. What? Oh, what do you have? Oh, you have something? Oh, yeah, he hit something hard. Oh, well. No, mud.

Don't do that crap, man. You're gonna hit me in the head. Come on. No, and listen, it won't be funny. Oh, we're about to get hit by the goose. Oh, no, no. That's a low. Oh God. A fly by. Let's go talk to this couple. They don't seem like they're having enough romance. Give 'em some romantic advice. Ahoy, what y'all doing? You caught anything? Me neither. Y'all come here often? No. First time? Yeah, us too.

It's kinda like a pickup line, but it was sincere. Oh, oh, shoot. This is. heavy as hell. Okay. Let me feel of it. No, I'm not gonna let you screw it up. It came off. Are you serious? I want to complete my golf club set. Let's observe where people go because where people go is where they drop. Everybody goes towards the fountain 'cause they wanna see what it feels like to get wet. Okay, I'm getting wet. The wind shifted. The wind shifted. I'm not getting wet. I believe in this so much that whenever I pull the magnet in,

I don't even look at it anymore. I mean, I hit something little. Nothing at all. Are you trolling? I'm trolling as hard as I can. Am, I'm using the term right, right? Yeah, like shrimp. You're, you're slowly moving the. Dragging the bottom. The bottom, you're dragging the bottom. Oh. Oh. I have something. It's so heavy. Bring it in. Ah, I just let go of it. Exactly. Oh, I have it again. Oh, see, now you're in my world, now. You think there's a pipe beating the fountain. No, that's a natural fountain. Oh it is? That's a geyser?

It's a, it's a natural spring. Natural geyser. Three of 'em. Why do you think they built this park? Some conquistador was walking through the woods and came up on these three springs and. was like, well, we gotta build a park here. Alright, let's troll back to this couple here. Now, if they're making out, we're not gonna talk to 'em. Let me speak first so you don't say something weird. I don't wanna scare 'em away. Oh, I got something. Look, look at the whole boat turn. Look at that. Yeah. Are we back in the same spot where I had the pipe theory? Probably. Probably. But just bring it in and see what you got.

Yeah, I'll, I'll bring it in. Yeah, I mean it was sticking hard. But it's not sticking now. And now it's not sticking now. Go in reverse. Alright, by doing this, they're not gonna see us coming. Right. It might even look like we're moving away from 'em. But getting bigger. Hey there. Hey. You talking to me? You guys got anything metal you don't need? Come on, think about it. You didn't even think about it. Oh, you have your keys. Okay. Just anything you got. Sorry, you really should pull some of your weight, man.

She's doing all of the paddling. You've just been on your phone, right? Not really. Oh, jewelry. Is it aluminum? I mean, does this, does this mean something to you? This ring doesn't mean anything to you. No, it's not metal. It doesn't. Oh yeah, I just exposed your ring. Actually, I don't know how magnets work. I did catch a golf club in here. Nine iron. I think this was once the golf course. Yeah. The conquistadors played here. Yep. We won't mess with it anymore if you guys wanna like vigorously make out or anything. You know what I'm saying?

We know what these boats are for. Let's go behind the fountain, but when we go behind the fountain, act like you're getting. wet, and then they'll edit that together to make it look like we went right through it. Oh, I got wet. The wind shifted. The wind shifted. I am, I'm, I'm actually getting wet. I'm actually getting wet. I'm actually getting wet. Oh, I'm actually. Oh no. Getting a little, oh. Oh, I'm getting so wet. Oh. And I think I got something.

I think I got the pipe. Whoa. Bottle cap. Gold bottle cap. Look at that. Don't touch it though, see that? there's gold in them there lake. I never thought I'd be so excited to get a damn bottle cap. Let me see. You gonna throw it back in? I'm gonna throw it back. I won this round. Did you? You thought I was gonna throw it back in? Yeah. It might be Conquistador bottle. What do you think I'm gonna do? Do you know, it might be worth something. Did you see that?

Oh, it's a Stella Artois. Ah, see? Hey, I told you the Spanish. Are you sure. Artois right? It's French. Oh. It's a French Geyser. Well, they border Spain. Yeah, I mean there's a lot of. Touche. Influence one another. Which is but in French. All right, you guys had some good, good time out there on the boats. We did have a good time out there. We did. Wasn't very fruitful, but. Well. And you had to find me the most beautiful thing. So what did you find?

I think I may have done that. So again, another little history lesson. At some point in the past, a dignified French woman was out here in this area and out of. her little satchel dropped a piece of gold. Her name, Stella Artois. Oh. I can confirm, it does say Stella Artois. Uhhuh. And it is gold. I like that. Yep. Okay. Ask, ask Link what he's got. Link, what do you have? I will admit that is a very beautiful item plucked from the depths of Echo.

Park Lake, but I am pleased to present to you something far more beautiful. And that is all of the beautiful romantic relationships that I encountered. Over here, there was a couple, I think they were talking to each other. I think they were brother and sister. There was a couple over here. They couldn't keep their hands off of each other. There was an exchange of rings, which was beautiful. And you made friends. There was an attempt. There was an attempt. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I mean, it almost goes without saying just the, the beauty of our long.

lasting friendship, uh, blossomed on another level as wet, wet, got Rhett. Wet got, Rhett got damped. To recap, nothing physical. Yeah. But a lot of. Relational beauty. A lot of relational beauty. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And uh. And I'm bringing that back to you. Something someone should have recycled but just threw in the ocean. Exactly. You don't have to put it, you don't have to put it. Exactly.

I mean, this is gold, but I, it's kind of not beautiful. If we're going on the most beautiful thing, which I shouted very clearly to you guys, I. think, kind of think you win this one, Link. Yep, yep. I thought I did too. And that means that you're ahead by one point. Yep, okay. Golfing buddy. What you say to that? That it feels like BS, but you know what? If that's what it takes for there to be some suspense going into the. final round, I, I am all for it.

Well, you know what BS stands for? Beautiful Substances, like the one I found. Brotherly. Sisters. Sisters. Okay. All right, gentlemen. This round, I want you to find me the weirdest thing. And, that might just mean finding me anything at this point. Oh, that's slippery. Oh, that's slippery. Looks like one of those, uh, fruit bogs, doesn't it?

You mean, uh, ocean spray? Yeah. Well, not a sponsor. Not a sponsor, but I mean it's just, it's descriptive, descriptive. Cranberry. Oh. Oh. You think you can get lucky right here? Nothing. Look at this, you got a nature. Another nature flute. Nature tube. Oh, I'm feeling a little wet. My right foot's feeling a little wet, I think. No, it's not. Maybe just cold. Are your twigs and berries in there? Or how many? Maybe your singular twig. No, I have two penises. I'm a shark. Uh oh. Oh, hold on. I got something.

Look at that. What is that? It's a glass tip of a. Yeah, hold it up to the camera. Can you see that? I stepped on that. That's how I located it. Look at this. I found a. Oh, that's that Jamaican beer. No, no. Smirnoff. Hush, I found a coin, a rare Smirnoff coin. Look at that. Put that in your pocket. Uh, no. My pocket is for my stuff, man. I don't have any pockets. I don't, that's your problem, brother. Just go. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

What is that? What is that? I don't even know, it's so weird though. Look at that. It's a, uh. Oh, it's, it's, it's a, it's, lemme touch it. It's a switch, for a. What's lying in your mouth? It's a switch for a machine. I'm gonna put it in my pocket. Drag 'em and bag 'em, that's what I always say. Look, look, look, look, look. Chain. God. What? What? I got pond water in my mouth. How? Chain link. Chain link. Chain link, and it's mine. I'm so happy for you. So far, I've got a lot more than you.

Oh crap. I found a whole chain. Oh, I found two chains. Look at this, a carabiner. You're not doing the right techniques, man. You gotta dip. Well, you can go deeper than me. Look, I can, I can join the chain gang. You know, right there. Okay, alright. I see. One chain, two chains, little wrapper reference. I see a can of Modelo over here. Let's see what I can do with that.

Okay, well. I knew that. What you finding? Nothing. A can, but that's not anything. Well, I got something. Your shirt's getting in the water. I got something weird. Oh my God. It's a waffle maker. With an intact cord. Look at that. Belgian waffler. How weird is that? That's crazy, dude. That's cool.

What? Thanks, I don't, you're, you're. I don't know, I. You're a jackpot genius. I dunno how. I, I can't put this in my pocket. See, I was on it for a second, I was like, oh, but then when you get on. this, it really sticks on that side. Look at that. Oh, look at that, it's fallin apart. You, you don't be so obnoxious about it. I mean, damn. I mean, it's just crazy, the stuff you can find out here. Here, here, give, let me see. Like, what's the story about behind this thing? Somebody's like, well, I don't like waffles anymore. I'm low carb.

And what? And they just throw it in the lake? Yeah. How does that happen? It's, it's an Atkins Diet. Check it out. I'll hold the cord. How cool is that? Look at that, opens right up when you, you see that? It's crazy. It's even crazier that I can't find anything. I'm jealous. I'm mad. Yeah, you just don't have the touch, man. It's okay. Don't, don't make it about touch. Just kidding. Hey, I'm gonna touch you. You don't have the touch, man. Alright, time's up. Hold on. I found something, I found something.

You found a piece of wood, you wanna give him something for that? It doesn't seem that weird. Stink, you stink. You smell. I don't smell. So look at this Chase, I also have, we got chains. I got a little switch. I mean, why are you even showing the other things? Here. You got a Belgian waffle maker. Check this out, Chase. It's a coin from the island of Smirnoff. This looks like another bottle cap. Yeah, it was not even gold. I heard you shout Smirnoff coin out there and I thought that would've. been weird if it was an actual coin.

Oh yeah. But. Okay. This, uh, not so much. Well, okay, better collection over here. Yeah. Definite weird thing. A hundred percent. It's in pretty good shape. A full waffle maker is insane. Yeah. And I think that is worthy of a win, except, I have been given some information that this. might be contraband and that you brought it in your waiters and dumped it yourself. So who told, who told you that? I, uh, I'm pretty sure we have it on camera.

Let's see if I can get this can. See that can, I'm gonna get that. So. I'll punch you, man. Did you. Listen. Just saying did, if I could see you, I'd punch you. Hold on. What? Hold on. Are you serious? In my defense. Hey, you know what. I, hold on, I thought. I'm gonna slap you. I thought that if we came out here today, and nobody found any, anything except bottle caps and chain links. We, we, we needed something entertaining, and I didn't realize that y'all.

were, I didn't realize that you were gonna say something about it. You didn't realize there were gonna be rolling cameras. I figured you'd see it later, but not that you would make it a part of this. It makes sense. 'cause it's like, I mean, right, who. Yeah, you're gonna be driving a boat down this ramp and you're gonna put a. Belgium waffle maker there, right there. And I guess I should have aged it a little bit. Maybe if it wasn't such a huge ramp up. Yeah. From the little bits of crap that we found. It is weird though, isn't it? It's very weird. With the golf club, I mean. But I think it's also, uh, worthy of disqualification.

Ha. Exactly. Absolutely. All right, so that means the Smirnoff coin is the weirdest thing. It's a bottle cap. And you are Magnet Fisher Brian, Link. Congratulations. Thank you.
