How Wine Night Sent Spenser to the Hospital, Emergency Surgery, & 3 Year Recovery

A wild and uncontrolled Wine Night at Ryan’s house spiraled out of control, turning a planned social event into a full-blown disaster. Glass cups were used instead of plastic, leading to shattered windows and a slick, slippery floor from 200 pounds of spaghetti sauce. Spenny, wearing high heels, sustained a deep, three-inch cut on his arm after slipping while stepping off a dirt bike during a burnout. The injury was severe enough to require emergency medical intervention, with the group rushing to the hospital and eventually flying Spenny to a trauma center in Minneapolis due to concerns over the wound’s severity. Despite the trauma, Spenny remained upbeat and resilient, showing remarkable mental strength. The hospital staff, however, displayed unprofessionalism—refusing to allow filming, delaying treatment, and abruptly kicking the group out. The incident revealed serious safety lapses, including the use of fragile glass, high heels on a hazardous surface, and a lack of risk assessment. The group now firmly believes such events should be avoided, emphasizing the need for safety protocols. Spenny’s recovery is ongoing, with doctors noting partial tendon repair and a three-year timeline for full sensation return. The experience taught the group a valuable lesson: prioritize safety, avoid high heels and glass, and remain vigilant in future activities. Though the event was chaotic and traumatic, it also became a source of unity, positivity, and a renewed commitment to responsible, fun-filled adventures.

- Everything Ryan owns got destroyed in one day. Evan hops out and goes, "It wasn't me!" "What is this moron doing?" We're bombing through town. CJ's passing cops parked at Taco Bell. My arm is just completely sliced open. And I'm like, "Boys, hospital, now!" I've rode dirt bikes my whole life and I could maybe never ride again. - Benny, what time do you want to leave at? - I actually got Ken to change mine. - What do you mean? - I'm just gonna hang for a couple more days. - Are you really? - Yeah, why wouldn't you? - Why are you so fired up about getting out of here? - Dude, you've been trying to leave since you got here. - I am good to stay. - You've been trying to leave since you got here. - The furthest thing from the truth. I've been having so much fun. - Shred 80's gotta get home to buff things out. - No, no, no, just say a word or two. We'll calm it down easily. - The guy starts fires and then hits the road everywhere he goes. - Yep. - I mean, we know that. - Shred 80's been fighting fires since day one. - Yeah, this guy's a firefighter. - I know how to put one out, I'll tell you that. - Well, let's just start out with, man, I love you guys. - Love you too, Mike. - I love you too. - Dude, love the people watching and listening. - It shouldn't be legal to have this as much fun as we've been having lately. - I think sometimes it's not. - Yeah, sometimes it's not. - You're right. - I think some of us have been having more fun than others, like all of us. - Shreds. - Versus Spenny, but. - Sorry to hear that, Spenny. - It's all good. - I think he's still having fun though. - We're having a real great time, actually. - I'm feeling great. Where do we even start? - Dude, where do we start? - Is this post wine night podcast? - Post wine night, yeah. - This is the debrief. - But it hasn't been put into the final cut of what we can show yet. So I don't know what the end of the YouTube video looks like as far as like what happened. Because let's just say YouTube has gotten pretty strict on us lately. We've had a couple run-ins, and they are our boss, and apparently you can't show somebody getting cut the way Spenny got cut on YouTube. They don't like that. So we had to like cut around it to make it YouTube friendly. I mean, either, depending on how strict YouTube was, like either way, like there's some things that the world should not see, and Spenny's injury. - Dude, it is bad. I don't even like looking at it. I like zooming in on a photo of it, and you're like, oh, it just sends the hair on my spine standing up. Like, dude, it's just scary to look at. - I can't stomach it, dude. It's gnarly looking. It's definitely like, when it's actually open, it's like a three-inch gap almost, it seems like. - Well, if you guys remember like when I ripped my knee open, it's like twice as bad as that. I mean, as far as-- - Like a hundred times maybe. - I was gonna say, as far as an injury goes, it's way worse than that. But like, as far as like, you know, blood and-- - Definitely the worst injury I've ever had, for sure. - Should we run the people through, like kind of play by play how it happened? - Let's run it through. - Yeah, so on the last podcast, we had briefly mentioned at the end of it that we were about to go and film Wine Night, which up until this point, we were calling the best night of the year. Yeah, it's been like this ongoing thing, I guess if you're not familiar with it, like this would have been our third annual Wine Night. The first year it started out just kind of as a joke, like in our limo that we had made, where then it got toasted. And then the second year was in a bigger limo that we had. Ryan was driving that one as well. It was a little bit gnarlier. And then this year we're like, oh, we should do it in Ryan's house. - Yeah, well, you know, I figured I'd banged you guys around in a limo long enough. I'll just have you over to my place and we'll host. - So that was the plan. Well, I guess that is what we did. And it just escalated just way too fast. Yeah, things started getting thrown. Glass was everywhere. Wine bottles got thrown through windows. - Chairs got thrown through windows. - Everything in sight was getting thrown. - And it's with the spaghetti on the ground, obviously being thrown. The sauce, slipperier than ice, slipperier than ice. And also I know Ben mentioned it, but I'm going to reiterate. There was glass everywhere. - Everywhere. It was everywhere. - And like the previous Wine Nights, we actually didn't use glass. - Always plastic cups. We always made sure they were plastic. - Why did we go to glass this year? - Yeah, why did we go to glass this year? What were we doing? - I did say to Evan when we were loading up at the Boys and Girls Club, getting cups. I was like, probably go plastic. And he goes, no, we got to go glass. - Because we were breaking windows and we had glass plates, it didn't seem like the glass cups were going to make a difference. - Yeah, I mean, there was a lot of things. - Yeah, I'm the one that's like, no, we got to get the glass. So it looked good. It was supposed to be real fancy and classy. - And I thought about that, too. I was like, yeah, there's going to be so much other broken shit, which there was. So I mean, that was just one of many things that was broken, you know? - Makes sense. - Yeah, and then on top of that, there was 10 gallons of spaghetti sauce, 200 pounds of spaghetti. - 200 pounds, dude. - 200 pounds of spaghetti. - Well, it was 200 pounds uncooked, correct? - Yeah, and then-- - Which, so 400 pounds cooked. - Pretty much done. - About like three big Yetis full of spaghetti. - Yeah, bar right there. - Hey, Yetis full of spaghetti. - And then, yeah, like Mike said, it all ended up on the ground. It was extremely slippery. Spenny is in his transition era, so he was wearing heels. And he did have a nice blouse and high heels on. - No, I don't even know why I was wearing the high heels. I just thought it would be fun. - You wanted to. - That's why. - I did want to, but I thought it would be funny for all about it. - I was about the high heels, but not for any particular reason. Just, it was just funny. No, not to look cute. - Are you sure? - Why, Gav? Was it working? - You got Mr. Sexy coming in. You were getting all excited. - Was it working, Gav? - Was it working? No, no. - Were those heels working? - Chill. Chill out over there, Spenny. Chill out. - Keep going, though. - The hard part is, like, we have, like, six cameras rolling. - It's chaos. - And we still don't know what happened to Spenny. - Yeah, don't really know. - Of how he cut his arm the way that he did. But to our understanding-- - So basically, yeah, we were, shit was going everywhere. And we had planned to bring the bikes and stuff inside. So I went out, got my bike, rode it in. - I didn't know this. - Did, like, a couple burnouts in the living room. I think Evan hit a burnout right there. - Well, the second I hear the 450, get fired up, I run outside and get the three-wheeler, too. - Yep, true. Gavin's in there at this three-wheeler. So we're just doing, like, some donuts and stuff. Just, like, on-- - In my living room. - Heavy, heavy limiter. - Heavy limiter, yeah, true. Heavy limiter. - Just on it, dude. I wasn't letting off. I was in that thing the whole time. I think mine was pissing you guys off more than anything. - Yeah, it was insane loud. - Yeah. - And then I was like, man, I should do a burnout. Like, I'm in Ryan's kitchen right now. I should probably do a burnout. - As you do, yeah. - So all the windows are smashed out to the lake. I drive my front tire into the corner of the house, and there's drywall on the left, and then the window right in front of me. And so I just start ripping a burnout and just not thinking anything of it. Everybody's laughing. We're having a great time. - Smoking out the house. - It was crazy. It was a crazy burnout. - No one was laughing, besides for maybe Gavin. - Was nobody laughing? - Doing the exact same thing on the other end of the house. - I was scared. - No, everyone was running every direction. - Were people scared? - Everyone was scared. - Was it-- - It was just me and you were loving it. - It was just us. Yeah, we were having fun. - No, but we weren't upset. - I was like, "Kill the bikes." - "Kill the bikes." - This video I took is actually seconds before it happened. Basically, we're all hiding behind, I believe a term for it would be my credenza. - Oh, okay, yeah. - I don't know, some part of my house. - The research behind the credenza. - Oh my God, dude. - Look at just the screaming at the start of this. - Benny just caked in Parmesan. - And so this is what's happening seconds prior to it. - I'm barefoot, I am barefoot. - What are you doing, Gab? How are you barefoot? - I know. - Oh, so bad. - See, Dalton walks over to the corner to get the shot. Everything's flipping. - Wait, the table. - Who's running the table? - Who was running the table? - You were running the table. - You looked like Ben was running the table. - Was that me? - Yeah. - And so then basically-- - Oh, was that me? - Yeah, that was you. Look at that white suit. - Ben pushed the table into us. - Wait, let me go, play back. Was that me? - That was for sure you. - Hold on, no, that's Evan. - Sounds like something I would do, but you guys are the ones that can see it. - No, look at that jacket, that's you, bro. - No, that's Evan, bro. - That's definitely Evan. - Oh, yeah, that's Evan. - Yeah. - It's funny that that's how smoky-- - No, that's definitely me. - So yeah, that was fractions of the seconds before what happened. - So I'm hitting the burnout, and I'm like, this is lit. And then it was kind of getting smoky. So I was like, all right, this is just-- we got to shut it down. So I shut it down. And so what I think happened is-- because I didn't feel the cut, and I didn't crash. So I don't really know when it happened. Gavin could have flung a piece of glass off on his wheel, and it could have hit my arm and cut it. - It could have. That's not what happened, though. - Yeah, there's no way. - It could have happened, yeah. - So what I think has happened is I stepped off the bike, and my bike stayed standing up. And the window sill was to my left. And I was walking, and I slipped and put my arm out to catch myself. But it went out the window and then went-- and then I fell down and touched the window sill. But then I was chill-- I was chilling, totally chilling. - I don't know if you were chilling. - I was like, I got to get out of the house. It's too smoky. So I start walking to the front door, and I look down. And my arm is just completely sliced open. - So open. - And I'm like, boys, hospital, now. And I walk straight over to Dalton. I'm like, dude, you've got to take your belt off and wrap it around this as tight as you can. And he's like, whoa, whoa. I'm like, dude, no, like, you need to take your belt off right now. Like, we don't have any time to spare. - Normally, he doesn't hesitate when you tell him, them to do that. These are like 19. i'd say probably 80s dual pane windows like two separate frames that are apart with just a space in between like old style windows no glass protection you know no tempering where they shatter into little things that don't hurt like this is classic like saw saw movie grade glass just that's thick ass big like jagged pieces ready to cut just ready to cut yeah sliced yeah and so i don't know we just took it too far and but i think it was uh the high heels that really did yeah well so the situation the wine and the high heat and the spaghetti sauce on the floor like i was slight i mean who would have thought that those high heels would be evan you gotta look at this one you gotta take a look at this one you know when you look back at it you really wonder what the fuck were we doing oh you know when you look back at it you really wonder what the fuck were we doing oh my god that is so bad so i guess the picture that outfit is going into the hospital with a four inch cut yeah three inches up on your wrist so let me let me backtrack so this is like about where the the cameras like stop right so like bad things have happened right in our videos like when we're filming usually the main thing just keep filming even if you can't show it just keep filming right yep it was so bad after seeing like i i took one look at spenny's arm ben walked over and tied a t-shirt around it and tightened it and then i was like dalton puts the the tourniquet on it and then i go over tie a towel around the actual wound yeah which was like i that's when i like actually screamed i was like holy fuck boys like we gotta go this is it started hurting exactly what you said right there it started hurting it was bad right and i obviously had a good look at it and like where the cut was like that's like the epitome of where people are not yeah yeah the artery right there so i see that and just immediately go into like fight or flight like get this dude to the hospital immediately right like like cameras and i even yelled at cj like put the fucking camera down and drive like because i was like hold on i gotta go back and get my phone cj had to drive his truck right and and so we had a cj had to run and grab his car and he was like oh my god his keys for his truck um because his truck's sitting out on the road and i was like dude just put the camera down and like for you to say that means a lot a lot like ken or even maybe me or mike yelling that it'd be like okay well you know we still have a couple more degrees of like you know we can keep pushing the film but for you guys to be like this is this is yeah oh yeah i was i was full full panic full panic but like between dalton acting fast of like taking his belt off wrapping that up too and like i was like oh my god i'm so sorry i'm so sorry i'm so sorry i'm so like and then everyone coming together and then cj hopping in his truck we're covered in wine and spaghetti head to toe we pile in cj's raptor r brand new brand 25 i was stressing too before i got it i'm like cj like are you sure like i'm gonna destroy the seat like i'm bleeding everywhere i was stressing so then basically we're ripping to the hospital i broke about every law in the book literally allegedly benny did mention how impressed he was i drove around cars i did i blew i was going fast he was doing it everything good thing that raptor r has 705 horsepower it was it was like to the point where like so we're on our way there i call 9-1-1 and i'm like open wound open wind my friend just got cut it was an accident uh but we're on our way to the er can you let them know we're coming because i didn't know the severity of like like how bad it was bleeding right we didn't know we wrapped it up as quick as possible but like we didn't know if it was like a cut artery or what what the deal was right and he was like yeah i'll let them know that you're coming right and i'm like yeah i'll let them know that you're coming right so we're bombing through town cj's passing cops parked at taco bell literally if they if they start chasing us bro you gotta keep going and then i'll call 9-1-1 again and say all right this is the thing you guys around i wasn't worried about it because we were so close to the hospital and they and they weren't in their vehicle so i was like by the time they get in their vehicle started catch up to me we'll be literally at the emergency room so i was like whatever we're close enough so i just did it and they didn't even ever come maybe they saw me rip into the hospital but yeah i'm i'm like driving like a maniac and then uh spenny's like dude cj i'm sorry about your interior and i'm like bro it's so it's okay but i get us to the emergency room and i i took a video of what the back seat looked like dude i felt so bad i haven't seen this yet i felt so bad you don't need to feel bad about it at all it's hard to describe to what the smell of spaghetti and wine is and the parmesan cheese and the parmesan cheese is the worst part and we know what happens if you don't get every little bit of it out because and it's oily it's an oily base it smells so bad yeah it gets worse and worse and worse oh no it's like those oh no oh no oh my gosh i'm so sorry i am so sorry it'd be one thing if it was like leather seats because it'd be easy to get out but it's got that like cloth and it's got that like cloth and it's got that like cloth and it's got that like cloth and it's got that like cloth and it's got that like cloth slash suede center and then all that stuff and then ben had it in the front seat too so like i get you guys there and everyone we're just sitting around i knew that like we're gonna be sitting around for a while so i was like okay we're not i'm not doing anything at this point so i went back and immediately cleaned it spent like two and a half hours cleaning that bitch alex came over next day still smells like spaghetti i ended up just getting it professionally clean and it's thanks red river motorworks it doesn't smell at all so it's literally for nothing like there's there's no damage at all so you really don't have feel bad thank god and even if there was wouldn't be i mean we had to get you there yeah true so that was it was totally worth it was it was between hopping in the sprinter van or cj's raptor and i was like well we got to get there quick which one's a better option in hindsight the sprinter van i mean it just depends who was driving the sprinter van like you can drive a slow car fast or you can drive a fast car even faster they'll both do the same and the sprinter also had a trailer on it which would have been less oh yeah oh true yeah that's yeah yeah that makes sense but yeah gnarly so we get there dude we rush rush spenny in and you look like psychopath red sauce so like think about that a bunch of people run into an emergency room one of them is severely injured and then the rest of them are covered in red liquid yeah you have to be like oh shit yeah what just happened dude it was we looked like psychopaths i walk in there at the blouse and big gash on my head the high heels no oh my god i couldn't because we got there so quick dude the boys worked so quick i was probably at the hospital within like five minutes of cutting my wrist that's what i was gonna say we were there so quick i was actually super impressed yeah we call ourselves professionals for the line of work we're in but like it actually made that was real yeah yeah we went to zorbas you didn't even help them i was out of there pretty quick but i was still super impressed by how it went down house is smoky we got the tourniquet on him in 20 seconds and then he's in the car in 45 seconds like it was seriously like it took place right there quick yeah so we get in there they actually rush spenny in because like every other time we've gone to the er in our hometown it takes like three hours just to get into a room into a room right so they get spenny in super quick and we're like all right he's in good hands now should be good to go right well they proceed to to bring you in yeah so i get put in and i'm they sit me down on the on the bed or whatever and there's like a table i put my wrist on the table and my hand is just stuck like i can't lift it like at all it's literally just sitting there and i'm starting to freak out a little bit because i'm like holy fuck like i actually mobility no no mobility couldn't move any of my fingers like i couldn't even lift my arm off the table because it was just dead it was like losing so much blood it just seemed like it took way longer than it should have they came in threw the tourniquet on and i'm sitting there like just in a crazy outfit i'm sitting there for 20 30 minutes next thing you know i'm still sitting there and the boys come in they get kicked out for filming well we weren't filming so yeah so after like and probably an hour right they finally literally over an hour yeah they went and got food for all of us went and got cleaned up like i'm so waiting i'm like spenny's in there getting taken care of yeah you know he's we're gonna have news here shortly and then they let us back in so they come out and they're like all right two of you guys can go in right so we go in and immediately walking in they're like you can't film which we know and so but i had the camera with right yeah so we go in i set the camera down and then we're sitting there you're i'm still just bleeding everywhere it's wide open it's wide open his hands just sitting on the fucking table is it no not covered no no not at all it was dude it was it was just i sat there for like an hour and a half wide open bleeding on the floor blood dripping off the table onto the floor that proper protocol there's no way so so we go in there right and we like see this and they're kind of like coming in and out and then after like 10 minutes of us being in there doctor comes in i think sees the situation at hand and then i don't know if they thought that we were filming and they saw how bad the situation looked and they didn't want that to be filmed because it looked so unprofessional on their part where then they just immediately freaked out at us they were like get out they're like everybody else i'm like no no like yeah and then they're like you can't be filming and like i had the camera sitting in there right and we're like we're not we're not filming right if we were standing there like holding like talking to spenny and they came in like obviously would have been one thing so like they kicked me and ryan out we we walk out spenny still sitting there right and then we're basically like sitting outside uh the hospital then for like the next hour to an hour and a half and then this happens to ryan so then i'm starting to get fucking obviously leave it to your guys's resident you know button pusher yeah karen i'm like all right i talked to my mom my mom works i'm like mom what's the deal like spenny's been here for two two and a half hours when we were in there an hour ago like nothing was really happening his arm was blue because they had it tourniqueted like for so long i'm i'm like getting really nervous for spenny like i'm i mean you know you don't you kind of can expect the worst hope for the best in moments like that so i'm tweaking i'm like well we need to get in there and see if we can get in there and see if we can get in there and see if we can get in there you know you don't you kind of can expect the worst hope for the best in moments like that so i'm like all right we got to go in and be with our boy because spenny was like thank god you guys are here yeah i've been alone so i go in there the front desk goes yep go on back in i'm like all right i'm gonna go see spenny i literally am about to turn the corner in his room the one nurse sees me stands up and immediately starts screaming bloody murder get out get out get out get him out screaming at me and i just freeze it's been a fucking stressful day i'm like all on edge and i freeze the security guard comes sprinting around the corner probably expecting a fucking chaotic scene and it's me standing there wide-eyed and he comes up right up to me and he goes i don't know what's going on but you need to leave and i go i need to get in there and see my friend he's been requesting me we've been in there and she goes get him out get him out get him out just screaming and the the security guard goes i don't know you said you're not going to get in there and i'm like calm to me but you got to get out of here and so i'm like okay so i walk out in the waiting room i'm talking with the ladies at the front desk and they're like we can't do anything up here and i'm like all i care is this man he's getting good care like i don't want to fuck anything up for him but i'm trying to like get in there to make sure he's okay get him a phone charger see if he needs to call his fucking insurance company see you know whatever be with my friend which is legally required and i had the hospital supervisor come down and she's like yeah you guys were filming you weren't filming and she goes they think you were so you can't go back there i go well what if i am not going to be filming when i go in there like you can take my phone she goes nope sorry you can't be in there i was like i'm literally like one of the only people in america right now that can be with him she's like nope sorry hippa which is like you can't talk about people's health and stuff outside of the hospital i go i literally brought him in here i'm pretty sure he fucking i'm okay to know what's going on with it i could hear all this going on outside too i'm just like i'm like asking i had a nurse and i'm like like they gotta come in here like yeah and i'm just here and yelling going on i'm like i knew exactly what was happening i knew ryan was the boys are fighting yeah i knew they were trying to get in but because it's been three hours we're not yeah what are you saying are you freaking out about it so i was freaking out and then i mean at some point i was just sitting there and the one nurse came in and her kids were subs and she so she knew exactly who i was and i was like can you like take these high heels off of me they didn't even like no i'm sitting there in this outfit still like god stressing covered in pizza sauce and pasta sauce and parmesan cheese and spaghetti and uh i'm like can you just cut all this all these clothes off me like i just can't sit here any longer in this because it's starting to dry and get like itchy and rusty so then she like yeah she cuts my shirt off takes my high heels off and uh and then i'm like standing at the sink and she's washing my hair in the sink and i'm dripping blood all over the room because my still cut cut open the more i hear about this the more this is not okay it's not okay it was bad it was super bad so then anyways i get cleaned up and doctor comes in and he's like yeah we actually can't do anything for you like and i'm just like i just after three hours i've just sat here for three hours and you've had like couldn't figure that out so then they're like yeah we can't do anything we need to fly you to uh to minneapolis so now i'm really stressing because i hadn't even talked to any of the boys heightened like i'm like oh shit like if they're flying me like this is actually pretty bad that means that they can't deal with it here so the the pilots come in and they like grab me and they put me in an ambulance i ride over to the airport keep in mind they didn't tell us this so the only reason we knew is spenny got one text out before his phone died said flying to minneapolis that's all it said we watched the fucking ambulance drive away and we drove to the airport and saw him get in a plane and we go holy shit he's flying to minneapolis that's how we figured out that he was going to minneapolis no one fucking told us anything they were like oh hippo we can't i go we brought him in here so for all you guys know he's about to lose his hand or something yeah we have no idea i mean we don't know like the severity you don't know what's going on which was scary for me and i'm just stressing big time you're the most lax guy ever i know so we get in the plane they can't fly the helicopter so we take the plane get in the plane and i just remember like laying in the bed and i'm like kind of like in and out like i'm not in and out but just so much shit was happening i was just like trying to fall asleep but like staying awake and falling asleep and staying like i was trying to stay alive and all i remember is the one guy was beside me and he goes the pilot just texted and asked why our plane smells like spaghetti and i'm just like yeah it's a long story dude svenny did you explain it to him yeah i did i explained it to him you facetimed me right before you're about to take off these guys were like strapping you know keep in mind you're laying down and i'm laying on the bed these guys are strapping you in i think so and you're just like yo these guys are so nice and you flip the camera around yeah these two guys they're so nice but uh i also have to say like we iterate all the time how bad the parmesian smells and all that i had to shower two times to get it all off good showers and spenny just got a wipe down and he had to spend the entire night smelling like complete ass oh dude that had to have that would drive me insane i just couldn't maddening get the smell out of my nose it was so bad because it was actually stuck in your nose it was in my nose i didn't feel kind of bad that at one point when you were laying on the ground rolling around i dumped a full yeah jar of parmesan just like i know it was in my eyes bro parmesan shower it was so bad it seemed kind of mean i was choking on it after everything that happened like i'm like that's the part of this i'm like man i really wish i didn't do spenny like that when spenny's just like it wasn't too bad except for the parmesan and evan's just like i remember watching you do that evan and i just go in the air or something now that's just bullying it was pretty mean yeah dude i remember the parmesan cheese when you did that it was like down to my throat and i was like coughing it out because it went down so far but yeah it was it was so bad and then pretty much all i remember is just waking up the next morning and colin ben and the boys were on the way to the hospital i just we landed flew into the room and we're going into the room the or room and it's just super bright white lights and they push me in and there's 30 people standing around because they're about to do like surgery on my arm so they were already they're ready to go yeah they're ready to go that's 30 people standing around and the one nurse just goes i gotta ask why the high heels and i'm like honestly i swear i'm not a psychopath so you were still in them no i think it would be no they were in a bag they were in a they had a plastic bag for all my belongings and it was the high heels my wallet your blouse my blouse and my white pants that were cut off because they don't throw it out wow that's crazy dude and i'm like honestly you're saying that kind of surprises me in this day and age that especially in minneapolis that a nurse would ask that question to a patient i know that's wild i don't know it's just like i think they just saw me this day and age is not that did you guys see that clip that buttery had with it i know spade yeah the dude was like a baby that yes yeah i feel like that yeah yeah why you can't ask yeah why the diaper so i just felt i felt like more bad because i was just like wearing stupid shit and they're probably like what the hell is this guy doing like obviously on yeah what is he on like is he on crack or something and then i woke up the next morning and all the boys were driving down and i was just still hadn't had any surgery and uh yeah so they got you in there and they just cleaned it right they got me in there they evaluated how bad it was they realized that it wasn't a cut main artery finally took the tourniquet off after four hours of having that thing on there my arm was just like and it was my sliced open this four hours it was i mean there was nothing covering it no no no they covered it they covered it when i flew no i'm saying oh when you flew they did okay but they put a bandage around it and stuff yeah so we hop in the car we drive like four hours down the next morning and then uh walk into the it'd be like done with surgery at this point yeah we thought we were kind of on like a recon down right so like a life flight is like dire as soon as possible it's gonna be right yeah it's gotta four hours away life or death right so they wait he waits like three or four hours at the actual er and then they life flight them down so we were like oh shit this must be pretty gnarly if they're flying them down if they can't you know put them in a ambulance or wherever they gotta get them keep in mind we have a good hospital in farmland Like 45 minutes away by ambulance, we have like the best hospital ever. Other than the cities, like, if you're north of the cities, that's the best hospital in the area. Yeah, that's the spot you'd go, right? Level one trauma. They fly him down, right? So we expect, like, once we get there, he's got to be out of surgery, and, like, you know, they hopefully fixed whatever, like, the emergency was, right? You're coming to save me and bring me home is the idea. When we walk in, oh, how you doing, Spiney? Just waiting. Just waiting for whatever they'd say. We're like, what do you mean waiting? Didn't they fly you down here because it was, like, an emergency? Yeah. Are you getting pissed off at this point? Are you telling me? I know, you're too nice, you're too nice. Oh, my God, I would have been juiced up. So, pretty much, we sit there for the next, basically, 12 hours, and they were like, yeah, you're up next as long as nobody else comes in and needs a surgery that's more pressing. So, like, down in Minneapolis, like, so Minneapolis is, like, insane ghetto, right? A lot of spots, right? I think, yeah, the whole country knows how shitty Minneapolis is. It's just like any standard downtown. like people are doing drugs in time area right so like the er down there has like obviously an insane amount of like workload work yeah almost people falling over hitting their heads you know more people in the area so you're gonna have bird scooters random stuff yeah right so that's why they wanted him to go down there is because they were like you're gonna be in the best hands possible because like these emergency doctors are like the best in the country of like you know they're gonna see the gnarliest wounds and also there's a really good hand surgery down there right that's the only thing that made me feel better i'm like okay cool you've been here for 24 hours but at least the hand surgeon he gets there and he basically just kept getting pushed back like somebody else would come in with like a you know a worse injury that needed a surgery before him right so we're sitting there all day and he just went from like second in line to okay you're still second in line but one more person came in so now you're behind them and like you're you're still second in line but one more person came in so now you're behind them and like you're like that happened all day and then eventually like the doctor came in and they were like well it's not like dire usually we would just send you home and have you schedule a surgery and come back and we would just wrap it up you know and and have you just chill for a couple days until the surgery that's insane so yeah hopefully they get you in tomorrow and we're like you guys life flighted him down here just to sit in a hospital for another 36 hours before this keep in mind i hadn't eaten any food this whole time because i wasn't allowed because they were like he might be in surgery he can't eat or drink water so i literally was just fasting fasting like from 9 p.m or whenever we started wine night what what did we start at seven six yeah and we didn't really even eat we didn't eat yeah we didn't really eat dinner so i didn't really eat dinner and then i just like a day and a half no eating and just obviously i'm losing so much energy from my injury too and losing a bunch of blood sitting there so the best part was definitely having the boys rolling in the morning because i was already like feeling rough one of the nurses like cleaned me up a little bit more still hadn't had a shower and still could smell the parmesan but i uh i had to yeah i got cleaned up a little bit more but the boys came in in the morning which saved the day and my girlfriend she flew down too also saved i know you still have some meat sauce in your hair though dude it took me at least four hours that was bad bro so then yeah anyways sit up in the hospital for like a day and a half and then finally two days later they're like all right we got a time it's like four o'clock we can get you in so then i'm sitting there at the end of the day i'm getting the surgery and they're telling ken so ken's the champ for staying because he was taking care of me he was like running back taking care of me and then my girlfriend talita she was there and we're like sleeping in this hospital bed together together and i'm trying to make room for her because i feel bad but i like can't really move enough so i'm didn't want to go to a hospital or to a hotel which is or a hospital probably yeah so we slept in the bed together for like a night and then i got the surgery and then they're like all right you got the surgery we need to keep you here just to make sure which is the third night so then i was like hey like i gotta sleep in the bed alone like i just got surgery and i'm dying by this point like after the surgery i'm on pain meds like just out of it just destroyed i'm just tossing and turning all night couldn't sleep from my arm and then i woke up at six or seven a.m took a shower this is my first shower so now i'm like four days later i get my first shower right i could get a wash my hair shampoo and stuff and i'm like seven o'clock i'm getting dressed i'm all fired up to get out of there and then they take like till like 1 p.m to clear me to leave so i'm sitting i showered and i'm ready to go like all fired up to leave and i can't leave till 1 p.m so then finally 1 p.m ken and talita drove me back and so what they end up finding in the so so in the surgery they got in there and basically they told ken and talita that they were going to be like yeah we get in there one or two tendons repair them and we'll be out 15 20 minutes so i'm like all right no problem i head down to the to the surgery room i was down there for three hours ken and talita were stressing out a bit texting me trying to see where i'm at and uh because yeah it's supposed to be 15 minutes yeah the doctor was like yeah 10 or 15 maybe 30 minutes at the most and three hours later i come out and and had eight tendons fully sliced and then one nerve and in the nerves the back kind of the bad one because so i had no feeling in my i have no feeling in my thumb my pointer finger or my middle finger i can wiggle them but i just don't have feeling and then actually nicked the artery which is the main artery that you can die so i just barely barely nicked it just enough yeah literally just just barely just slice it and that's why it was bleeding so much but not enough to to be like super super concerned yeah wow so got insanely lucky got the eight eight tendons repaired and one nerve and they say that if you get into like a good rehab facility yeah then you can get all the feeling they're saying but they're saying not to three years until i might start having feeling in my fingers again what yeah yeah they said three years so full feeling full feeling yeah yeah but i mean but you're gonna get all mobility back hopefully the tendons hopefully yeah i mean the goal is to get at least 90 yeah i'd be happy with 80 but at least 90 we gotta get this guy some heated gloves that's what i think about like in the winter if it's cold if you can't feel the feeling all of a sudden your hands are super cold yeah that is wild bro yeah dude it was a pretty heavy couple days and then got out of the hospital friday and started filming friday afternoon again right back into it literally right back into the action and and not just friday freaking like i mean we've been filming all kinds of dude every day his girlfriend and parents are gonna yell at us i'm not gonna like that spenny gets back and i was like how you feeling so good dude well we got something for you yeah let's run it is that okay toledo his girlfriend she's just sitting there just like you're supposed to be relaxing you should probably be resting eh i'm like i was just too fired up back with the boys yeah yeah yeah ready to go i was no i feel amazing let's go you heard it spenny actually was the most positive guy through the whole thing like it made me feel better talking to you and you were the one who was injured like i would be freaking out i'd talk with you be like nah man dude it's my job to get better like i'm gonna do whatever i can these doctors don't know me like i'm gonna work hard i'm like wow like this you your mentality on stuff like this is really commendable and like i'm just the worst part was when the doctors were telling me like yeah it's gonna be three years like i really i don't have much to say to them when they're like what are you supposed to say you're gonna yeah tell them to freak off spenny knows what he's capable of guys three years what do you mean you need to freak off right now doc don't tell me that don't tell me that you know that's what gab would be saying don't tell me that they're just sitting there just like not okay all right i guess i'm done then right no i'm just saying i'm gonna be like i'm gonna be like i'm gonna be like dude you're such an athlete you'll be able to get it back yeah yeah so it's been like maybe a week it's been a week since it happened so flying to back to canada flying home now and been in the cast for a week i can move my fingers like just the slightest amount but it is the weirdest feeling it feels like you're getting like shocked it feels like a shock in my fingertips it feels so weird because like the nerve is i don't know yeah i don't know it just wow it just feels like my fingertips are shocking when i move my hand so i've been wiggling my fingers a little bit in the cast just for fun just to see what what we're working with and uh what are you working with i can wiggle every single one of them which is good and i can like pick i can because i have no feeling but i can say all right i want to wiggle my thumb and i can wiggle it get that bad girl moving yeah man i just uh i'm just glad that you're okay and like dude just the atmosphere of being in a hospital really puts everything else in perspective of like this is like the last place that you want to be and i'm just glad that you're okay and i'm just glad that you're want to be yeah and uh yeah i i just think about like when i was going home to like shower and grab a change of clothes then to come back to the hospital to meet you i was just like man i take this for granted getting to go home and stay home versus like have to shower and then go back to my friend in the hospital like it doesn't get much worse than that like that feeling shitty feeling right there it's the it's such a shitty feeling and it just like it gave me a different perspective of like man i gotta take like my health be more appreciative yeah be more appreciative and not take it for granted um and with like all my friends too but yeah it was it was crazy dude it was uh it was a crazy experience i know for sure that any time that you can avoid going to the detroit lakes hospital because wow we have had nothing but bad experiences there and like i get it like it's like an er atmosphere of like it's crazy these these doctors and nurses are like never know what yeah you don't know what's gonna happen or what's gonna come in and like i wouldn't ever want to be in their position but just like the way that the hospital handled it was like insanely unprofessional there was some sweet nurses in there that like really helps benny and then there was also a batch of people that like truly were like so unhospitable and so like angry and i have not been yelled at like that in quite a while it was it was impressive actually but regardless you know i like try and like tread lightly on that situation because like i don't know about like the bad karma of like going exactly like a hospital like that where no one day you might need them yeah exactly but it's as far as just like the whole situation like how it was handled it was it was really bad on their part and they need to fix that because most people don't have a podcast to go and you know share their experience like to the world right they kind of just have to just take it and move on and even like i don't know if you guys are going to be able to talk about it but like i don't know i don't know if i'm going to be able to talk about it but like i don't know if i'm going to be able to talk about it but like you guys need to say something about this experience because this is how a lot of patients get treated and they don't do anything about it and they were like you guys need to do something about this because we don't agree with it either wow so i mean just to hear that wow dude yeah kind of puts it in perspective right about maybe just like the overall management of it but yeah i would never want to be uh a nurse or a doctor because of those like moments that they have to save somebody's life and it's like high pressure right dude i'm just glad that you're good spoony i know me too yeah if we take anything away from it it's don't fuck with glass don't fuck with glass it's always tough when people are like well at least it's your left hand for those of you that don't know he's left-handed yeah oh man i was just like little things just so many little things i mean whether you're on crutches or you're missing a hand like spenny's laundry sitting out after that and i was like oh he's got to clean this up i'm like oh yeah he can't he can't even fold a shirt dude that made me so happy yeah mike went in and i had a pile of laundry on the thing and i walked in today and it was all folded and my socks dude the hardest is putting the socks together and all your socks were inside out i was like man he would have never got these he was ripping pull tabs though i got a video of him ripping pull tabs at zorbs it was a bad situation but i hope there's people out there watching that could use the uh the positivity that i had and the courage the inspiration yeah i mean i'm with a lot i got this is like i've rode dirt bikes my whole life and i could maybe never ride again but i'm not gonna let an injury stop me and if you're listening and dealing with the same i hope you push through and get back to do what you love stay positive while doing so stay positive while doing so maybe stay in the gym and keep having fun too yeah love you spenny you're a warrior yeah i'm glad not that any part of it was good but like i'm glad that you're here and you're smiling it was like the worst week ever it put everything it did in a perspective i don't it was gonna be pretty hard to get me down this week after that i was like dude i'm just i'm just happy to have my friend and see you smiling and that's really all that matters yeah definitely in hindsight 2020 we were maybe not as careful as we should have been but now that's just it's good it was a lesson learned we're gonna take it continue to be more careful no more high heels no more high heels obviously at the end of the day it's like no more glass i can't nobody should be wearing high heels doing the things we're doing no no literally nobody literally literally no more high heels that's unless you're gonna be training spenny you gotta train what about the cowboy boots though i mean those are borderline high heels with gav wears they're just as slippery yeah but that guy lives his life in the cowboy boots they should be an extension of his body you're like a runway model yeah they kind of are yeah really the only thing that i changed from my day-to-day life was the high heels and i had never trained in those so obviously it's new train for me you did hit a new zone spaghetti yeah spaghetti was a new zone got a ride in ryan's house which was awesome that's pretty awesome i actually i tore it down today i was like fuck this place it hurts benny i had him bring there was really no cleaning the spaghetti out of that place sorry to change the topic but still on the same topic my helmet ryan you know we found it right did you hear about this no yes it's in the back of the sprinter van i'm glad you took something positive how did you not know that because we thought it was missing ryan told me they threw it away when randy was really yeah i was watching back all my crashes i was like holy shit like i've seriously taken so many damn crashes in this helmet it's got to be you know hung up on the wall somewhere for sure like actually has to like we're done wearing it now it's downstairs right now let's definitely put it in a box here soon don't you worry about that gav i'm not worrying you're gonna get a new one i mean we got five more cut up ready to go now should we talk about what happened this morning yes like this where do we even yeah i'm intrigued what the frick happened we're just getting on good terms again are you sure you want to bring it back up i have come sit here it's been what three hours and they've just been getting on good terms now i don't even know where to start besides for i guess at the beginning yeah go for it yeah we're all good stories start so we are paving all of the the farm property right now so like everything that was gravel is going to be asphalt and it's all going to tie into the main drift track so big moves big moves right yeah we've been we've been saving up putting money into a uh a jar underneath you know in our closet for the last two years since we bought the property for this moment right so we got shit everywhere at the farm if you guys know this we're hoarders right we don't throw anything away well every time we get done filming videos these vehicles end up somewhere on the farm and now it's all getting paved we have to move them one of them being our school buses right we have three school buses two of them full size one of them uh a short bus so we start moving them and we have to move them and we have to move them moving these buses around not thinking anything of it like we were just moving the vehicles at the farm for the the asphalt video just to move them super casual super casual well what didn't clock is we had evan driving the short bus pulling cj told me to hop pulling the full size bus which gavin is driving yeah the second because the full size bus wouldn't start right yeah we needed somebody to steer the butt the big bus while the little bus it's an extremely simple task extremely simple probably the biggest steering wheel you've ever seen you just a little left a little right exactly foolproof a literal blind man could do it he did all right so uh they they pull it up up through the farm property and and park it on this hill and then on the way pulling it there from like one end of the property to the other evan was like pulling gavin around like these corners in this bus right and so we could see it but dalton was sitting there filming on the other end of the property and he was like which was already pretty reckless because there was like ben's lambo cj's raptor on the drift track mike's drift car the gmc like there's a lot of rigs on the drift track and you guys are blowing by them it was all uphill once we left the drift that was the good part yeah so i had to carry the momentum yeah on the drift track true yeah make it up this big grassy no which had to let alone the turn that gavin had to make to get from the drift track to the drift track to the drift track to the hill alone almost piled him up was so scared because he drove into the trees he drove into the trees really yes oh i mean yeah at least 20 30 miles per hour dude i'm yanking this steering wheel wishing i had a gopro on me at least so yeah i mean we're watching this right and i'm i'm laughing just watching him try and make these these corners and so like i was scared what was going over i didn't foresee that happening i didn't think that you were gonna tip over a full-size bus just on our trip drift track not a three-wheeler they're a lot more stable right i honestly figured that when you were just going through like you were gonna just cut the corner too tight and then like hit some overhanging like tree branches and like maybe like like side swipe the side of the bus right so we like end up getting up to where we're parking them and uh gavin's like crawling out the back of the bus and i was just i just yelled at him no no no whoa whoa we're parked about side by side at this yeah they're parked side by side by side so i can see oh my god i'm so scared my driver window gavin is in the front of his bus right but all the rope like he was 50 feet of toe strap is slack because we're next to each other correct and that's when ben tells us so then i i pull up i pull up right and they're they're right there and i just go yo ev run that back and dalton will like just get in position and get a shot of you actually going up right i was just thinking just swing back around and then just get a shot pulling them back up the hill yep so evan hears that fires his bus evan hears run it back he fires up his bus and he starts driving right slow he started off slow but you know let's go back you guys knew i didn't have brakes no i did not i did not know that you do have brakes you gotta quit saying you don't have don't have brakes go put my mike is there a break there besides the foot but the foot brake doesn't work correct foot brake doesn't work yeah but the handbrake does i didn't know about a damn handbrake okay so i didn't know that i didn't know that the brakes didn't work i thought all was normal and the brakes were good yeah and you could steer and that's That was fine. We got there perfectly fine without break. the first time so yeah because you went uphill like you said which we were going to do again keep going i did not like coming around the corner honestly i didn't i didn't know about the brakes or any of that i just wanted them to just run it back like a lot of times we'll just run things back and don't we'll just get in another position and like actually get the shot like we missed so many shots right and you just that's the beautiful part about a track is you just go around it again that's correct so that's kind of all i was thinking and meanwhile so evan fires up and he starts like pulling away meanwhile gav gets up out of the seat also gavin doesn't know how to open the school bus doors that's why i was also pissed off i would have stayed in there if you would have helped me open that damn door i did not like being locked in there the only exit point for me was all the way in the back that's why i was already back how did you get in there in the first place it was already open then after we were going he literally closes it and can't figure out the little child's safety i was can't figure that out he has a video on his phone of him just making fun of me yeah i do have that video let me out of this thing let me out of this thing i was already wanting out help me get out please i cannot open this door how do you open it up oh god damn it what do you do with it well we gotta stay in there no i do not want to stay in here why was that a scary ride it was a hell of a scary ride i had zero brakes coming around that corner right there i thought i was going to pile them in those kids truck so gav's locked in this i i guess i didn't know about any of these problems gav was having right but ev just kind of started pulling away and meanwhile he just pulled away slowly gav walks to the back of the bus right and i can see evan about to like give it a little yank so i yell at gav as his head's popping out the emergency exit on the back as his head's popping out i'm like like watch out because i didn't want gav like the bus to like yank a little bit and then gav's head halfway out that right and so from there he just hops out hops out as the bus starts rolling away and then i'm like gav he thinks you're in there gav he thinks you're in there and gav's just standing there watching it like laughing he's like oh no and i'm like no gav he thinks you're in that bus right now he thinks you're in that bus meanwhile mike's sitting right here and gavin just goes gavin just goes mike go tell him and i'm like you're going to run after him right now all you have to do is just run after him and as soon as he sees you he'll stop yeah gavin just goes mike go down yeah gav looks like yeah he's in the meal him and spenny are in the meal the meal goes six but i and yeah i was going full speed but i still didn't know why i'm like well where's evan bringing the bus and then spenny's like i'm like evan thinks gavin's in there and then i'll click follow him go and i have for the record uh just because of previous no mirrors i can feel the rope is tight which means gavin's still there all we got to do is one easy simple loop around the property mission accomplished so i really my biggest worry was that pulling this bus is really a strain on the short bus so i'm like i just got to keep it to the floor or else i'm gonna get stuck so i just got to keep it keep it moving use the momentum of the hill and just keep going boy did he ever keep it moving oh yeah so evan starts driving like as you would imagine evan would start driving and he's like oh my god i'm gonna get stuck wide open ripping right i'm watching this short bus pull this full-size bus through our field and then evan hops up on the gravel road that's like the community gravel road the public gravel road that we share with our neighbors and then he hops on it meanwhile the big bus follows him for a little bit and then it starts trekking down into the drive goes yeah it goes off into the ditch on the other side of the property what is this moron doing you know we all know he loves to hit the fucking ditch but i'm like just come on gav like keep it on the road so i know that evan still has no idea gavin's not in this because of how hard he's driving and i'm just we're gonna be stuck i'm just like oh my this is so bad i'm screaming chase after him chase after him meanwhile spenny and mike are are chasing him down in the mule well the mule goes six miles per hour and you're in a skid steer and i'm in the skid steer right so i'm trekking along at like three miles per hour going six he's barely ahead of me and uh gavin's standing around like nothing's even happening no i think gavin starts chasing him down but his pockets are all full of like his wallet and stuff right he's running after him he has six celsius cans in his pockets so he's running after him just trying not to lose his pants right like looks like a hoodlum running with his pants around his knees and so basically long story short um the bus ghost rides into our neighbor's fence through the fence and then hits our neighbor's skid steer he had parked there yeah and so like our skid hit the skid steer plowed the skid steer dude no and so like imagine it plowed it pretty hard plowed all the fences over luckily that slowed it down plowed through our neighbor's fence smokes the skid steer evan hops out and goes it wasn't me it wasn't me i said it once but i'm like well obviously obviously it's that idiot it's the idiot steering the bus's fault not the guy toy it's like like i said big steering wheel not that hard we just already went around the whole drift track he can clearly navigate corners correct so how he found a way to swerve off the road and run into the neighbor's skid steer is beyond me because i did nothing different then than i did four minutes prior and everything was perfectly fine uh yeah and so basically we then start evaluating well and that just happened well after about 20 seconds when the it was it's better who uh gavin's not in the bus it goes from bro bro bro to no no no i think this might have been a good idea be one of the funniest things to happen up here yet and that's what pisses me off is gavin still thinks this is just a joke this could have been so bad at this point now it's funny i got it that's not good yeah dude so so basically it plows through like a couple fence posts here comes ben finally coming in this skid steer yeah right and uh it plows yeah what do i say rolling up i was blacked out i was like no way this just happened bro i got it i got it on camera i got it i think dalton started getting you there yeah uh all right so the bus plows into the skid steer so this old like 90s model skid steer that's just made of straight steel they're so strong bro they are if that was a new skid steer that wouldn't have been good but those things are so strong so our neighbor skids you're sitting there it just plows into the skids your skid steer stops it we run up we're like look at the skid steer we're like oh my god it's so strong oh my god it's so strong oh my god it's so strong oh my god it's so strong oh my god it's so strong it's so strong to see what all is broken obviously it plowed through two fence posts but the skid steer is just sitting there just like a little like cinder block right just stop this full-size bus coming at it and we're like there's got to be something wrong with it we're looking around and we're like this skid steer is completely fine didn't even have a scratch on it it was unbelievable literally didn't even scratch the front of the bumper on the on the bus was like total like cut off fiberglass everywhere light was blown out so this is like you did some damage to the bus did some serious damage was fine just like you'd imagine embodiment of gavin just ate it oh it was like if gavin was sitting there yeah what it would look like yeah it would have stopped it so our neighbor owns a sod field so like he grows perfect grass right golf green golf green believe me i i know what a properly manicured lawn looks like and he's got one going yeah 40 acres of it yeah a perfect pristine grass right and his skid steer was just sitting right in line with what would have been a runway for this runaway bus literally perfect bus would have ended out up in the middle of his lawn like it couldn't like it could have been any better and gone any better he didn't have his truck sitting there he wasn't there like there wasn't and the crazy timing for the strap to let loose when it did you know i could have been continually pulling it more like the strap came loose right at about the time it really yeah ran into all this yeah there's a yeah there's plenty of other things that could have hit like all of our that's where his customers load up to imagine if a customer was sitting there like it could not comes flying around the corner nobody i can't imagine what would happen gavin when it came to g garsh my bad that's how it would have gone i would take in the blame for it like a man but you didn't you're not taking the blame for this now he did take the blame for it so i heard him say that yeah gavin calls our neighbor and our neighbor just so happens to be a total g he comes up and gavin tells him to be pissed so he comes up and he's like what the fuck i'm totally ruining this because this will be a good video bit but the ogs that are listening to the podcast that watch the videos you're getting a sneak peek of what's happened it was just i'm just i want to tell this story because it was like the craziest thing that's happened we've done a lot of insane stuff in the last week this still tops it of just like a a sheer accident that wasn't supposed to happen out of nowhere like i was genuinely shook yeah so sad about it this guy yeah evan was so he our neighbor comes up and and he's like well what the fuck of course this happens you guys are always horsing around and I'm just like god damn we are always horsing around and I thought he was pissed and then he and then he goes I'm just kidding boys I don't give a shit and he's just like oh this shit you don't you don't even gotta fix it we'll replace the fence like we're so sorry he's like replace you don't don't worry about replacing the fence you don't even gotta fix it he was like don't even fix it and so Evan's like away at this point and Evan's walking up and we're like yo yo yo just pretend to be pissed when Evan gets up here so he gets up and he just goes who was driving cause the sheriffs are on their way and look over at Evan and Evan just goes he was points at Gavin while I was standing in the driveway and heard them all laughing and cracking jokes and then when alright it's Benny and I gotta take off guys good you guys dipping for real yeah it's 3.15 just cause you didn't get a gift you gotta leave now mine's still at 5 yeah I changed my I wanted to hang with the boys more they'd been too nice to me well I guess we're both staying nah I'm just saying are you seriously leaving cause you didn't get a gift no oh we'll have we'll get AC dude I can get it installed yeah we are gonna get I'll get it installed bud why are you trying to get out of here so bad I've been trying to leave since you got here no not at all I had a great week that was actually like 10 days right there plus I thought you preferred to miss your flight in Fargo so you could swing by your pals I do have a backup plan that's good to have that's good to have bud let me finish this story the guy comes up all pissed and he goes uh who's responsible for this and Gavin stabs stepped up and he said it was me man I'm sorry when you didn't have to wow I mean it kind of was he kind of did have to it kind of was your fault but why didn't he have to there was a lot of fingers being pointed and then when it came down to it you stepped up and you took it somebody just gotta eat it if you have another person coming in of course we can bicker around our friend group but if you know somebody's gotta handle the situation and if somebody's gonna handle the situation it's gonna be Gavin Eland fixing your guys' mistakes yeah I said I said what a typical what a typical day Evan and Gavin break a bunch of shit and Ben and the rest of the boys gotta smooth it over for them really convenient crash that piece of shit and walked away really convenient though that Gavin just spent like yesterday installing the post hole digger on the mini excavator it is pretty true to put up our signpost yeah which is gonna be like 10 feet away from that guy's signpost so it's like and you gotta make it right and give him like the auto gate to the electric gate you gotta put the electric gate in there you know I'm not sure if we're gonna go that far but but it would be nice maybe I'll offer to mow his lawn once dude if you guys got him like you know how like what's that donut place Krispy Kreme how they have like the hot and ready sign if you had a sod a sod sign that said sod ready and it flashed red for him it'd be pretty sick alright guys

those guys this is hilarious hilarious I mean it's just yeah I don't know if we can financially I don't know if we can keep them around much longer you gotta hit like a 10 day spurt you know 10 days on 45 days off 10 days on 45 days off it's almost like going on a vacation that's so much fun the entire time but when you get back home and everything settles down it's kind of a sigh of relief when the dust literally when the dust settles I mean after a few days of like settling and then you're ready for another vacation but yeah it's yeah I mean it's hilarious dude like hey every time Gav's here he crashed that piece of shit and walked away it was like a movie the way he hopped out of that bus too like it was just beginning to move right as he was like on his step out like it was just the smoothest step out and it's just like already moving he hasn't even turned around yet and he's still looking at me talking to the ass I'm just like and it's already going yeah it was like a movie it was like a movie I was just so frustrated that I just don't think he ever comprehended how truly bad that whole situation could have been he's well that's like that's bro everything he does out of everything he had it couldn't have been any luckier not to mention because of the asphalt going in there's a half a dozen merch workers with nice vehicles parked right there it would have if the bus went if it would have gone around it would have hit them yeah true we would have been buying all of our employees new cars one of them has a damn Cadillac yeah yeah frick man speaking of cars getting hit Ryan I saw your Hummer and I high key cried for you oh yeah sorry about that Ryan this has been a pretty eventful podcast yeah no kidding a lot of carnage a lot of carnage I guess I'm not going to say anything more but I know at least I think I have to be one of the only people to have crashed two Hummers within 24 hours it's insane we had the little yellow crash and then we had that one we'll see that in this week's video yeah yeah just a bad day woke up early to go to the gym and better myself and I came up behind this lady who was driving unreasonably slow I don't know who wakes up at 7.15 in the morning to drive below the speed limit to work senior citizen someone who's probably looking for fucking deer I guess maybe she was going slow because she saw some deer probably and so I'm I look in my rear view to make sure nobody was trying to pass me I wait to crest the hill throw on my blinker and then it felt like my car got rocked by a 200 300 pound animal I mean seeing bro the picture Ryan it looks like an elk hit you yeah I was just going to say it looks like it got rocked by a 500 pound animal just body checked you or a or a buffalo honestly how did a deer cause this much damage can you pop it up I can I never saw the deer and I turned back around are you sure it was a deer are you sure it wasn't a a Volkswagen like or like Brian Erlacher you know honestly I don't know it hit me I got out assessed the damage took a snapchat and I turned around to go make sure the deer wasn't on the road cause like it's kind of a dick move to hit a deer what were you going to do if it was there well I was going to drag it off the road you know what I would have taken care of it I wonder if it hit it's head hit the front of your car right up on the quarter panel and then the rear end came around and the body hit the door like that's the only way that it could cause that much damage that's what I think too honestly it's a bummer you didn't trip and hit my tire it probably would have been fine your headlight fine no that's the worst part actually just the side of the headlight is cracked and that headlight is a part of the whole front end assembly and it's like $1800 for one headlight how does this work when you have two claims on your Hummer for deer in the last 12 months well it definitely isn't going to make it worth any more money that's for sure I don't know actually I think it's fine I think it's just another claim when you look up the car facts it's going to say two minor collisions yeah that'll be the issue this is kind of what I was getting at when I was talking about the winner of the Lamborghini with the little metal plate how it just hit the front fender when you were like yeah I hit a deer and I'm like thinking the Hummer's tough and then I saw it and went oh my gosh that's a lot of damage the front bumper's crooked the headlight the fender or the piece of the body line around the headlight the hood is moved over the fender the door the rear door and kind of that plastic piece up at the top you damn near totaled this thing out hopefully I'm really hoping it's totaled out that'd be best case scenario what would you do? I don't know probably buy something that's not built like a fucking pop can an H2 Hummer I'll tell you yeah I was going to say just go back to what wasn't built like a pop can and that's the original you could get like a 2009 I know honestly I'm thinking about it but they're not cheap they aren't cheap it'd probably cost more than what that thing's worth even we're coming into deer season now at this rate it's pretty likely you're going to hit another maybe maybe you don't fix it yet you just run it for a bit and then just so you don't have to have three claims you should do a military grade Hummer I was kind of thinking about that like I should either outfit this one like Mad Max style and really make it deer proof deer proof or I could or I could grab a Humvee I mean Alana really doesn't even like riding in this Hummer so I can't imagine she'll like riding in a Humvee either what's the fucking difference do what Mark has with a Humvee but Duramax you're a Hummer guy you've had every form of a Hummer besides that I think it's the next step dude those aren't cheap either though complete the circle Ryan nothing's cheap in life and if you're going to keep crashing them it's not going to get any cheaper so something like that you could hit a deer and it'll be fine it's a Humvee couldn't you just Humvee body swap this EV now that would be that'd be something yeah take all the all the electric stuff put that in the Humvee that would be insane I mean just drop the body basically drop the body onto this one you'd have half a million bucks I'm going to have to call up Robbie Layton he's going to be the only guy that's going to be able to figure that shit out he'd be able to do it for cheap for you though he'd be able to do it right and good and you wouldn't get you wouldn't get reamed yeah all I know is something's getting closer to the pole it's either that Humvee or I'm going to have to start working one to fucking pay for this thing because it's not looking good out here boys yeah Ryan you've been thinking about that one huh yeah I'm like I'm just like dude this thing it's the first thing my dad said I sent him a picture he goes oh bright time to put it on the pole then yeah dude he was telling me that back before it was even crashed dude he hates it because I just moved back in with it with them, uh, because I'm renovating my house after Gavin and Benny and we destroyed it and uh it jacks up the electrical bill how much i mean it probably adds you know like 400 bucks a month to the electric bill or something like that oh fuck i'd rather buy gas that makes me wonder how much ken's been jacking up the bill it's a good question ken ken told me the last time he's like oh i spend less than 20 a month charging my tesla and there's like actually no way because i mean i watch my energy bill and like when i drive his charges when it's uh not surging yeah he has off-peak and his battery is like half as big because this thing is the most inefficient brick of a vehicle that it like actually has the biggest ev battery out there so it takes a lot more to charge it's a hummer they got to stay inefficient in some way exactly even when it's an electric vehicle you got to still manage to make it expensive to yeah fuel can we watch the i just didn't realize can we watch the video of your house you're pretty much your entire house being torn down yeah that then so to kind of make matters worse is then i went to my house and it was planned on being torn down so everything was going well there and uh we started digging in i mean here's a picture of the wood like dude shit was so rotten in there actually as we started digging into this place randy was like i thought it was gonna be not good and it was worse than i thought as in what like uh getting rid of it anyways right but you know some people are like really you you went and tore down that that was a nice house but it makes you feel a little bit better that it was just a little more rotten than you thought some of the biggest like problems were is there was no insulation in the ceiling at all the only insulation because it was a flat roof and it was like an old style flat roof was a three inch foam board you're supposed to have like 16 inches of insulation which explains why i could never heat it in the winter oh yeah you talked about that on the podcast multiple times you had that thing just set at 85 degrees and it never warms up never get above 70 yeah and so we start digging in and we're doing this and randy starts looking at the roof and the rest of the roof on the house he goes dude there's no insulation in this the only way we can even make it slightly thermal efficient is either building a second roof on top of the roof and covering your old roof or stripping down the ceiling even lower but it's like low ceilings because you're only renovating half the house correct i was only going to tear down the front and leave the back because we thought and now what are you doing so we start digging into it and he goes you know he goes you really should just take this all down and i'm like i'm in a destructive mood this morning i go fuck it take the excavators that was the right move that was the right move you're taking the whole thing down we're leaving the garage still as far as i know when i look you were leaving the garage yeah yeah we're leaving the garage oh just the garage but not the top when i watched the video back i was like the whole house is gone i was wondering where they're i was like man there really looks like they went past one wall yeah exactly i was like and i was like how are they gonna melt this like no so it actually worked because they had done all the prep work to cut the house apart and it worked flawlessly if the original plan was going to go like the front of the house just fell off and this was perfectly unscathed ryan's remodel i think you're doing the right thing ryan i truly do even before finding out it was rotten you know you were talking about i wasn't going to tell you what to do but i was like man at that rate you might as well just build a whole new house you were tearing like saving part and randy must have been so happy to oh dude he's so stoked man he had to have been like you're gonna be way happier with the final product i am yeah and so then the worst part is the kind of last thing on it because whatever we start digging in and uh we were going to use the old foundation that was underneath that part of the house because we were able to just put a floor over it it's only going to be one story now yes whatever we're like oh easy stuff we dig in no the excavator guy goes you guys seen all yet we go no four inches leaning in like all the walls were basically starting to cave in on the hill so they're ripping that foundation out too oh i'm starting to dig more i'll just start fresh dude i think you just might as well get rid of the garage start fresh i fully i agree i should have but i uh a considerable amount into remodeling the garage already yeah oh that's yeah yeah that makes more like it actually looks nice now like the inside of the garage the garage looks nice now oh this is me walking through the house going outside it's kind of weird it kind of looks like a tornado came through except for it's just an excavator but it sounds like again you know financially more of a setback but you're getting a basement yeah it's like is it it's a ton of added square footage to this house yeah that's awesome it'll be good in the end and you guys what a mess yeah so honestly bad day for ryan's checkbook not not good yeah but in the long run that's way better oh yeah because then you would have had like when it came time that's kind of patched together totally you're gonna you can always just like you know when they do additions that you can just tell right yeah this one's gonna be full construction insert the little joe exotic meme i will never financially recover from this from this from the day the whole day in this last seven days yeah it's been it's been pretty rough for the kid but it's gonna push your that's gonna push your moving date back yeah a fair amount too but like i said i think you're doing the right thing because i was kind of thinking to myself the whole time i just tear the whole thing down well something that really got to me cj came over this summer he goes you know this place is really nice i like it whatever you know he's being a good friend and then when we came in for wine night he goes this place is kind of booty it is and he called i was like yeah he's right it was more booty when it was stale and we hadn't been running the ac and it smelled like fucking it did smell bad it smelled bad with the booty cheeks man with the dirt it was so i was 70 years old the roof hadn't been fixed in 35 years there was no insulation there was a lot of things that like truly needed to happen to bring it to the first century what a day yeah yeah i mean it is currently three o'clock and it has been financially destructive so i hope we have cheap plans for the rest of the worst right you could have had your corvette parked in the uh employee parking and had a school bus run into it can you actually imagine everything ryan owens got a destroyed in one day oh you didn't hear dalton was driving it earlier today honestly that's fine whatever at this point it's scorched earth like how many minutes did you put in into the decision of yeah we're tearing like half the house down to right fuck yeah it's so fast i think because even an hour is a pretty quick amount of time to make that decision i feel i would say less than eight minutes probably less than five we we got it we started they broke uh the last section and randy goes this is not good we're just gonna be a lot of work whatever and i go yep tear it down just keep going and then they cut a rest the rest of the roof and yeah it was that had to have been music to his ears oh he's so stoked yeah it had it felt good for you i'd feel yeah it was it's it was there was the only part of the whole thing that i was really anxious about of seeing how how it looked under there yeah now i'm just worried about paying for it so shout out to shopify yeah yeah i mean technically you're in charge of how expensive it's gonna get just depends how nice you make it yeah that's the thing like if you just met me if you just get a double i'm really dumb the tough part is i mean there's still a baseline cost and that baseline cost is yeah yeah the baseline cost is definitely expensive but i'm saying like yeah that's how you finish it's really gonna be up to you as to how much it costs you know worst case ontario ryan leave it a blank lot park a camper on it well not even we'll let you use the houseboat park it up front then you go you park your car there you walk down to the houseboat you already got a dock you got a lift the houseboat won't fit in it but you'll just you know anchor and uh boom i was on the lake yeah it's not the worst option maybe pick up a dinghy yeah you will have to get a dinghy you could even like i can afford a dinghy at this right depends how far out you want to be i mean you could anchor it so it's like perfectly like you just walk right off your dock onto it right onto it house on the lake no one's closer to the water than you that's gonna give something the neighborhood to talk about i tear down my house and then start living on a shed on top of the water yo when it was spaghetti night and we were getting prepared oh man your neighbors come out because like i'm sure they're not used to seeing much action at your house it's pretty quiet and then we're all running around you know set and move you know there's cameras there's people are screaming some people are are drinking wine everyone's in white everyone's in white and everyone's got a place to be they're back and forth back and forth somewhere in the woman's clothes you know what is going on here there's you know cameras all this and and i just guys snagged this video of you talking to your neighbors oh no oh it was hilarious yeah i did talk with them and honestly we don't really see each other that much there uh i'm never there because i'm either here or sleeping and uh they don't operate on the same schedule as me basically they live normal lives so when you were explaining it to him like dude all this is gonna be pretty some hooting and hollering some broken glass but when the rev limiters are you know yeah and smoke alarms how many smoke alarms did you like going on three four five and when all that was happening i mean it sounded like world war three and and so it just then they're probably like like the escalation it was so hectic when and it was just dark enough picture ryan just going off of ryan's in a suit just a disheveled suit too those people worked their whole life to be they're very happy and then ryan moves in look at me look at that awesome awesome retirement they they're just nice and peaceful beautiful views now is the sound of screaming motors and then oh we gotta get to the hospital like imagine that you just hear screaming motors fire alarms smoke billing out of the house and then you see a group of five five people come screaming out covered in in red spaghetti we gotta get to the hospital i fire up my raptor and floor it you can hear it all the way to the they heard it all the way there oh yeah it was they're just sitting there like who would have seen that coming what just happened and then it goes dead silent dude that's what i was gonna say it was like so eerie so after the it was like me gav ryan and ken maybe that that stayed to like load up the last couple things or whatever and then just like standing there it's like dead quiet other than smoke alarms going off it's just yeah the tire smoke coming out the windows it was just like i mean what did the whole thing last like 45 minutes of the day the most insane chaos and then it's just like gone what just happened it was eerie like i mean you're just i'm standing scared for spending of course yeah i'm standing in my living room which is in shambles i mean there is just stuff everywhere there's literally a wine bottle stuck in the wall yeah actually i'm listening to all the smoke detectors go off in like at different times the smoke's billowing out of my house we're all shuffling around around on spaghetti trying to figure out if our friend is going to be okay it was like scary shout out to randy he cleaned up all that spaghetti and all the stuff because he didn't he didn't know how uh long it was going to be until the excavator guy had a cancellation so he had to go do something else and so he cleaned up the entire house i felt so bad i was just chilling right you need to get him something nice i was just a wine and spaghetti dinner i'd say we do i'd say we got to get him something nice look at me dude mike it's our content um um but yeah so i felt bad ryan so i was just chilling i knew you guys were going to be at the hospital for hours what was that guy doing what were you guys doing load up the dirt bikes but i was that night that was but i was like dude ryan you want me to like shovel this up and you're like no the excavator's coming tomorrow and i'm like all right like my clothes and stuff i even asked him like am i cool to just like strip everything off and just left inside the door and that's kind of why why gavin assumed his helmet was gone because we were basically told whatever gets left in here is going to be gone like tomorrow with an excavator it was my presumption as well but yeah i guess excavator guy had a prior you know what would have been a really really funny prank on the excavator guy is like not have randy who's general contracting it there and like you're kind of there you have to tear down do this that the other and then have like mark pull up and be like what are you doing to my house and then you just take off running and they're like god like they think they tore down someone's house you know that'd be hilarious you get him to believe that that'd be a great troll it'd be like ben's lambo startup we did that one time removing siding really you actually removed someone the wrong house yes but it kind of buffed because we were doing like houses that were like repossessed or like owned by the city or whatever so we were on the right block and it was a house that had gotten repossessed not the house that was supposed to have the siding taken off so it like kind of buffed out um yeah because it was like a city-owned thing yeah whatever we'll just i think basically how it buffed is the city was gonna need it torn off but they hadn't like okayed it yet so then they're just like well we're not gonna pay for it we're like all right so we basically did the work for free it was something that should happen later but that was a crazy call from our boss he goes where are you guys at and we go oh we're just at the job we're just we're just about wrapped up for the day he's like uh well i'm sitting here and i don't see anybody in this house i think you might be at the wrong house like i think you might be at the wrong house did you shit yourself i would have well no like i said it was still gonna like an abandoned house it wasn't like the neighbor's nice house but yeah buffed my god things happen well i'd like to say that might be the only destruction happening on ryan's uh shore but i mean my house has still got to come down so oh gosh run back yeah something's happening well i think you gotta drive a car through it i did think about when when we decided to take it down i mean it seriously was eight minutes or less from the time we decided to take it down to then and uh i thought about calling you guys and being like get a car here now like we got to do something get a fire on our way ryan but that part of the house is actually attached to the garage which really needed to stay really needed to stay so then randy and i talked about he's like if you hit that wall it's gonna pull on the garage because it was like two stories with no floor in it so it was like twisting and bending but yeah so sorry about that no it's all good we trust me right we got enough content we did good we did good your house has done enough buddy dude it's amazing what these uh like tear down houses have done for us big ken's iconic ryan's you'll never forget ryan's yeah yep that's gonna go down in the history books my house didn't get torn down but it's still got farm animals put in it really nothing's safe unless you're mike and you move to a completely other town different state difference yeah i don't even know if i said i've felt safe but i still not sure if i'd know how to get to your house if i had to drive there by myself good you guys got my location you know every time i've had to pick you up a couple of times i'm like i need the address so ken's on his way to uh london right now he's going to oh that's where he is i seriously even wonder where's ken so did he find enough friends for those no tickets no he bought 10 by the way he spent 10 racks on tickets one thousand dollars a piece like 10 of them and he only sold four no i remember yeah i remember hearing like three of them scalping oh dude that was so nice again he wanted he wanted his buds to come so bad ken was coming he didn't ask us though he wasn't buying them for us he was asking the other his local friend yeah he didn't want us to come then they didn't want him they bailed on him he was like you got to buy these seizures i was like nah i'm good i ain't going to london you notice that we didn't even find out that he bought extra tickets until he needed to sell them he ran it by me one night after four martinis but other than that i didn't well yeah it was after they were still pending you know he had to he had to sell them i don't know he probably sold them on like seat geek or something he said he was like lower in the price but which sucks too because the bikes lost last weekend and if they would have won people probably would have been more stoked to like go to the game they're still they were still in it dude they're still in the browns we can't possibly lose they got pretty good defense man and i mean the people will know whether we won or lost after this came out so i don't want to i don't want to talk too much about it but having any kind of hope shout out blaze man i can't believe he's a cheer harder he needs a cheer harder yeah ken's going back to europe right now what's gonna happen like i don't know when he's coming home well do you remember last time he went to europe he damn near doesn't well he got hammered because he was young you know this was he would have been probably what 18 19 yeah it was then legal to drink there so he started boozing probably drinking a little too much wine well at the time jake was dating an older girl our friend jake sherbrooke and she was in europe with ken oh you know ken was sliding he was because apparently he was kind of touching her ass or something do you guys not remember this and jake sherbrooke called him out in our group chat and then ken was like i don't really remember and then you don't remember this that's why ken came home and was like i don't really remember yeah he keeps saying i don't remember i don't remember and then and then jake's like i just remember him being like i don't see how a full-grown man doesn't remember rubbing up on some holy shit ken does kind of do that when he is embarrassed he goes i don't remember that he might have actually been blacked out he might have i mean i don't care i mean it was just you know high school girlfriend that stuff that doesn't really matter this round twos are maybe was sliding in though you know so who knows hopefully he doesn't get himself jammed up again i mean we know one thing and that's ken has some weird infatuation with uh our girlfriends or like his friends we could say that we could say that we could say that we could say that we could say this and we know he's not gonna listen he's not gonna he's got no fucking idea i don't want to say that you think he has an infatuation with him i wouldn't say that oh yeah that's maybe i think he feels uh comfortable around them so like he's talking to him more than he would talk to any other female because he knows that he knows them where like i'm gonna go out on a limb just because i know ken pretty well and assume he wasn't rubbing up on jake's girlfriend's ass because he was trying to like smash or like do something like that no no like he wouldn't do that but he just feels like comfortable around them when like he wouldn't necessarily do that too so sometimes you pull your pants down so what you know i'm kidding i'm kidding i'm kidding you know it is funny though uh just just the other day you know i still live with ken i go walking downstairs and alex is i think she's vacuuming and ken's there in his fucking underwear just doing something in the in the living room and like they're not you know completely different side you know ken's got some fucking balls on like so it's just like some major package hanging down and like i don't care i'm not worried about it one bit but uh but like it is i did think to myself it's like man most people would be like what the fuck's going on i didn't think nothing like i just was like i kind of chuckled to myself of anything but uh yeah it's just funny we're different though like in terms of the way that we all probably react but honestly if if i walk down there and maybe if it was any of you guys in your underwear, I'd maybe be like, what's going on here? But I trust Ken. I trust Ken, too. Yeah, he could take credit on a date. He could take credit to Europe for a week, and I wouldn't be concerned about it. He'd probably have a great time. But that's where Jake Sherbrooke saw that happening. He was like, all right, well. Let me call Jake. Let me call Jake. Should I call him and get him on this? He was mad at Ken for a while. He's going to remember this. Let me call him. Because I don't want to talk. And who knows? Maybe we've got to cut this. I mean, they're not together. High school girlfriends literally mean nothing. And I'm sorry if you're in high school. But until it goes past that, I just most. Yeah. Oh, CJ's face. Yo. What's up, dude? Yo, tell me if we need to cut this from the pod. But we're live on the pod. And Ken just went to Europe. Do you remember last time he went to Europe? I do remember last time he went to Europe. He started making out with my girlfriend. Boom. There it is. They were making out. Hold up. Making out? There's no way. That's where the beach started, bro. Yep. See, I tried telling these guys about that. I go, you remember what happened last time? They didn't really remember for some reason. And, you know, of course, Ken doesn't remember it. Yeah, no. That guy will never remember. So they were kissing, huh? Oh, yeah. Big time. What? Oh, that's pretty fucked up. I didn't know they kissed. I thought he touched her ass. I couldn't really remember correctly. I think it was a little bit of everything going on. I'm sure. If you're kissing, you're going to grab down there. What happens in Europe stays in there. You don't have to at that point. Yeah. So, all right. Well, that pretty much answers everything. Well, I'm glad we got that covered and, you know, just had to re-dig it up. I'm glad. We're putting it to bed. All right, Doug. That's all. All right. We'll talk to you boys soon. All right, bro. Talk to you later. Bye, Jake. Well, that answers that. Wow. I don't want to say Jake's lying, but I think he might be salty about it and he was looking for his opportunity to get some revenge on the deal. He's been waiting 11 years for this moment. I think so. Like, I don't know if I remember it quite like that, but then again, Ken's not here to defend himself. So, whatever. He had to go to Europe. What up? Hey, last thing. I don't know if you guys talked about it on the pod today, but that skid steer you hit, I don't know if this is going to make it better or worse. That one's still my dad's. It's not Sam's. Oh, fuck. No wonder you didn't care about fixing it. It always leaked hydraulic fluid out of the front, right? Yeah, that's all right. You got to take it up with him, man. I'm hands clean. Oh, my. It's just a little bit of paint on it, on the fork. It's okay. No, you're good. You're good. Hey, Jake. Jake, you know what's funny? After we did it, after we did it, we were sitting there and we just go, man, imagine how bad this would have been if our neighbor was like Dave Sherbrooke. He would have ran into our fence. We literally said that. It would have been awesome. He would have hopped in his truck and ran over our fence. It would have been eye for an eye for sure. Call the defense. It would have been good. All right. See you. All right. Yeah. Anyways. Yeah. Later. That does remind me. That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to learn how to deer hunt because I don't know how to hunt that well, and I'm going to kill a deer with a gun. Yeah, you got it. There we go. I would actually love to go get a hunter. I think that'd be fun. Yeah, Ryan, you got to do that because a big part of deer hunting is to manage the deer population, which clearly is- Someone needs to do their fucking job. Someone needs to get out there. Well, that's a tough thing. We need to get kids into hunting because my Hummer can only take so much, and they're getting stupider. Ryan cannot drive around. And I asked Chad this morning, I said, because I was all fired up at the deer population as a whole. Am I cooked, Chad? I said, what is the most reported animal versus car? Car collision. Deer, by far. And then followed up with kangaroos, I bet. Sure. It doesn't even matter. Oh, yeah, kangaroos, actually. It varies by region. Kangaroos dominate. I bet there's not a lot of fucking kangaroos in Minnesota. Yeah, but if there was, Ryan would hit them. But yeah, I think we need to do one of two things. Exterminate the deer or teach them how to cross the road when there isn't a 9,000 pound object hurtling between them. You know what, Ryan? I think that you need to do one of two things. One, you need to just start putting deer crossing signs in safe places. It's a good idea. You know, to make sure that the deer are crossing in proper spots. Yeah, that actually is a good idea because if they had a crossing, then I wouldn't know where to look for them. And when you put up the deer crossing signs, you got to do it right. You got to have the dashes on the road. And then you got to have the post on the side so when the deer come up, they can push the button. A little squirrel running crosswalk. Yeah. Just hold up a little stop sign. Do it right. Yeah. No. Whatever. Whatever it takes, man. Whatever. My Hummer can't take much more. And neither can I, emotionally. So, yeah. We'll figure something out. Yeah, dude. You got to get into hunting, Ryan. Got to do something. Good idea. Seriously, I've filled my freezer two years in a row with freaking my car. Why do I need to go hunting? Is that actually legal? Can you take road? Yeah, you can. You got to report it and stuff. I haven't reported. Well, I guess I reported my new insurance, but it's not like I called the cops. Like, there was no animal on the road. It wasn't necessary. The DNR would, like, come out and tag. If you really wanted to keep it. But I should say, if you hit it in season, I think, you know, you could put a tag on it. If you had one. I hit it with my 12 gauge from the window of my vehicle. It's a little less. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah. You can't do that. You'll learn that at Hunter Safety, Ryan. Really? You can't do that. You might be on a watch list after even just saying that. There's so much to learn. You could take, like, an hour class online, but I think you need to go sit down with the children. I actually do think. For, like, eight class hours and really go through. I think I probably should. I think I should learn the most that I can. Yeah, 100%. For your safety. Yeah. Hunt it with me. Have you shot a gun before? That's the point of Hunter Safety. Yeah, and I actually hit some clay pigeons. I don't know if that's, like, super hard to do if you've never shot a gun before, but I did hit a few. Were they in the air? They were in the air. Yeah. You're not a big gun guy, though, Ryan. I'm not. The world is safer with the guns in the hands of the right people, and I am not one of the right people. Yeah, I could tell, like, every time we've ever had guns, and you have one, like, when it's your turn to be. Like, working it, you're not super comfortable with it. No, and that's because I never learned. I respected it, and yeah, seriously, like, I think people who want to own guns should own guns, but I don't know if the world is safer with me having one under the bed. Like, I just don't know if me, cortisol spiked the middle of the night after a branch fell on my roof, if I should be running around with an AK-47 with a scope and flashlight. That's what I would do. I'm used to protect myself, right? That's actually, so, one time, we basically ding-dong ditched Ken's bedroom, and so we go over there. It's, like, two in the morning. Sneak up to his window. Boom, boom, boom. You, like, hear this floor start moving. Oh, man. Light switch, flip on, and then you just hear, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do, going up the stairs. He goes up on, like, the deck above his room, and he goes, get the fuck off my lawn! He's always just screaming. And so critical. From zero to a hundred. And at this point, we're hiding in the bushes, right? And he goes, get the fuck off my lawn! Imagine the neighbors. Oh, my God. Screaming as loud as he could, right? And so we're hiding in the bushes, and once it goes quiet, we just take off running, right? And then as soon as we take off running, we just hear him then running through his house. Burst out the front door. Next thing, I'm running towards Ryan's car, parked, like, a block down, right? I look back. I just see Ken chasing. He's chasing after me. I'm full-on sprinting. Ken's chasing me down. What was he going to do? It's a good thing he's not in. I don't know. With how good a shape he's in now, bro, he would have hawked you down like a frickin', what do they call it? Corner? Cornerback? Cornerback? Safety? Safety, sure. Yeah, whoever would have tackled you. So, I get, like, me and Ryan, it was me, Ryan, and Jake, right? And we get to Ryan's TC, parked a block down, and we're trying to get in there, and at this point, Ken is getting closer. And we're trying to get in there, and we're trying to get in there, and we're trying to get in there, and we're trying to get in there, and we're just, like, the gig is up. Ken, it's us, it's us, it's us, Ken, it's us. And he gets up there, and he still does the thing where, like, he gets up, but he's still super mad. He threw this today. I think he might have grabbed me and, like, shook me a little bit. He barked the other part to me. Yeah. Why? I don't know. And so, he thankfully calms down, and anyway, we hop in, and we, like, drive away, like, jeez, man, he was pretty fired up, right? And we see Cody, his brother, the next day, and we go, did you hear about what we did to Ken? And he goes, did I hear about it? Yeah, he came and woke me up and said, give me your gun. Holy shit. Oh, my gosh. Could you imagine if he actually gave him the gun and he shot someone? Well, I mean, no. Yeah, they knocked on my window. So, Cody, Ken's brother, who's much more just sane, goes, no, absolutely not. And Ken is like, there's somebody knocking on my window. And Cody's like, I'm not, no, go back to bed. And then that's when he wakes up. And then he ran upstairs and then proceeded to go, get off my fucking lawn. My God. So, I do agree, Ryan, certain people should not have them in moments like that. Oh, that's funny. Ken'd be in jail right now. It would have changed the course of our life, dude. What would we have done without Ken? Depends how good of a shot he is, though. So, possibly, could have been an even better story. I mean, if you were just wounded, he'd probably be out of jail by now. His butt of flesh. I don't know, like, if Ken hit me with a, got me maybe in the leg with a, you know, like, a shotgun BB, I definitely wouldn't send him to jail. No, I'm not pressing charges. Yeah, no. It'd just be like, yeah, Ken shot me one time, but whatever. Boy who cried wolf of, like, you ding-dong ditch. I'm sure that's pretty common for, like, that shit's a common, but I'm sure it's not. My mom sent me the link. It was some young kid that, you know, was ding-dong ditching. And basically, the neighbor shot him. Sad, Jesus. Yeah, I mean. What was he doing, ding-dong ditching inside the house? Like, if your doorbell rings, how are you going to pop somebody? Yeah, dude, it's just, that's the problem. And, I mean, kids got to be kids. Kids got to be kids. Yeah, exactly. They can't be mad. have some kids on your street just dang dong get you whatever what was the story you were telling the other day cj about um her owner oh so like in high school i never maybe i did do it one time i was with them but i didn't physically ring the doorbell but there was this group of kids and they didn't drink or really do any of that stuff but like their thing was like we're gonna ding dong ditch this house like they would do like pranks kind of like they did this one so fucked up like they'd like poop on a dollar they call it poop dollar set it out and then someone would pick it up and they'd be oh dollar you pick it up there's fucking poop on it and then they'd drive by poop dollar and they'd roll out and like pretty funny pretty funny obviously gross you get feces on your hands debatably worse than than underage drinking in high school you know because you're kind of affecting other people at this point uh the poop dollar not so much innocent fun and uh the ding dong ditch it got to a level where it wasn't innocent fun so anyways there is this one guy and his daughter was in i think great above us and the dude was just a hothead and ironically he happened to drive a hummer he drove a hummer h2 it was orange it had it was the pickup one though whoa but that's worth pretty sick i think it was even lifted but it was on stock wheels if i remember correctly so lifted on stock but you can already imagine it can't have it all anyways so it was always parked in his driveway and uh they ding dong ditch him and he's like oh my god he's like oh my god he's like oh him every night for i believe like over i think it was like over 200 and something times like i'd have to double check but anyways so and the guy never knew who it was but like he was so close to like physically catching them every time so it was like this game of cat and mouse um i went i went with one time to like witness this and i don't know there's one you know let me get a load of this you know me and my my group of friends we're all acquaintances but so we we went and joined in and i remember like army crawling through like this grass and like this whole thing and i'm like sitting across and the one kid goes up gets it we're all out we're running get to the cars you know we just got our license leave but this guy comes out hot so i mean it got to the point where like he had a paintball gun yeah like he was doing a bunch of crazy stuff like i don't really understand why the guy just didn't disconnect his doorbell but he was a hothead like you could have legitimately just disconnected your doorbell don't go answer the door they ring it when he didn't go to the door you know eventually it would fizzle out but i think i think like that they might have they just almost never learned he didn't have it he didn't have it in him to just chill the fuck out and maybe like whatever he gave it and realistically he did it to himself he provided an extreme reaction like i'm talking he's screaming you know all this shit calling the cops freaking out about this ding dong ditch they end up catching them they end up catching them i think the cops maybe got involved uh and catching them or i don't really know but they ended up and uh one of my one of my buddies was i i don't really know how how it really happened but they boil it down to who the ringleader was one of my buddies ringleader and uh the ringleader of the operation you know there's a lot of people doing it but there's kind of a one guy and uh pressing the button anyways they had to go and sit down with the police and all this and as the story goes his dad was like what the fuck like we gotta he ding dong dish we gotta meet it when he explained it to you know i got caught ding dong ditch in this guy's house but he's like this is extreme you know like what are we doing we're really doing this so they had to go with the cops they had to like meet and then he's there as well so it's like his parents him the cops and this guy and you know his parents are like on his side as they're going there and they sit down and the meeting opens up and he pulls out this book and it's got every time he was ding dong ditch and it was like for 270 it was like an extreme amount of times and his dad just goes and looks at him like at that point he's like i'm fucked i'm fucked i can't remember what like his consequence was i don't think he ended up like really getting in trouble with the law any further past that but there was some kind of situation there was repercussions that's all i know and uh it's just a it was a lot of fun and it was a lot of fun funny story and it it's just a fellow hummer owner but i always chuckle at him telling the part where and then my dad just turned and looked at me it might have been in the 300s i i don't remember the exact number i don't remember it was an extreme number though imagine how pissed you'd be like think you're siding with your kid listen bud we're gonna get this all smoothed over kids can be kids well you know how you would you'd explain it to uh the cops you know how you'd explain to the or to your parents i mean you'd be like yeah you

Summary:

A wild and uncontrolled Wine Night at Ryan’s house spiraled out of control, turning a planned social event into a full-blown disaster. Glass cups were used instead of plastic, leading to shattered windows and a slick, slippery floor from 200 pounds of spaghetti sauce. Spenny, wearing high heels, sustained a deep, three-inch cut on his arm after slipping while stepping off a dirt bike during a burnout.

The injury was severe enough to require emergency medical intervention, with the group rushing to the hospital and eventually flying Spenny to a trauma center in Minneapolis due to concerns over the wound’s severity. Despite the trauma, Spenny remained upbeat and resilient, showing remarkable mental strength. The hospital staff, however, displayed unprofessionalism—refusing to allow filming, delaying treatment, and abruptly kicking the group out.

The incident revealed serious safety lapses, including the use of fragile glass, high heels on a hazardous surface, and a lack of risk assessment. The group now firmly believes such events should be avoided, emphasizing the need for safety protocols. Spenny’s recovery is ongoing, with doctors noting partial tendon repair and a three-year timeline for full sensation return.

The experience taught the group a valuable lesson: prioritize safety, avoid high heels and glass, and remain vigilant in future activities. Though the event was chaotic and traumatic, it also became a source of unity, positivity, and a renewed commitment to responsible, fun-filled adventures.

FAQs

Spenny's arm was sliced open when he stepped off his bike during a burnout and slipped on a slippery floor covered in spaghetti sauce and wine. A piece of glass from a broken window likely cut his arm, which was then exposed to the elements of the chaotic environment.

The group initially chose glass cups because they thought it would look more fancy and 'classy.' However, they later realized the decision contributed to the chaos, as glass broke easily and created dangerous shards during the event.

The group immediately reacted by grabbing Spenny's belt to apply a tourniquet, using a towel to cover the wound, and rushing him to the hospital. They also called 9-1-1 and drove through town at high speed to get to the emergency room quickly.

The windows were 1980s-style dual-pane glass, which shatters into sharp, jagged pieces without safety tempering. This type of glass is highly dangerous and can cause deep cuts, which contributed to Spenny’s severe injury.

No, the hospital staff initially reacted poorly. They were uncooperative with filming and later refused to allow the group in, despite Spenny’s serious condition. The situation was described as unprofessional and mishandled, especially during the emergency care process.

Spenny underwent surgery and recovered over several days. He now has no feeling in his thumb, pointer, and middle fingers, with full recovery expected to take up to three years. Despite the injury, he remains positive and determined to return to normal activities.
