This one's a little weird. Yeah. Yeah
0:08
That happens. Ex- Trainers. Bone conduction. Sunglasses. Optishocks. What is this? This is Ultimate Warrior. Right
0:18
Was that his song? Ultimate Warrior intro? Came out coked up. Coked to the gills
0:30
Everyone is telling me this is the future of sound. This is how people should be listening to music
0:36
Through bone conduction so they can still use their ears. And then why not slam them into some sunglasses while you're at it
0:42
And so I was like, let's check it out. Let's see if it's any good for the gamers, right? Willie Do, Dave2D
0:48
That's their type of lens right there. Maybe even Kirk for that matter. Overwatch
0:53
Overwatch, head out to the golf course. Then you go to the nightclub
0:57
Miami Vice. You see what I did there? I've had a varying degree of success in the past with bone
1:04
Conduction audio and I was kind of surprised actually at the performance It like the sound is it already there It in my brain Ooh That a nice case the actual bone conduction unit sits behind your ear in this section right here and creates some sort of vibration and the tech of your skull
1:22
skull tech, is actually responsible for delivering that sound through your bone
1:27
How much these cost Will? 100 bucks on Indiegogo right now. Okay, old school vibes
1:32
You fold it out for the actual bone conduction piece. This will sit behind your ear and deliver all the sound
1:39
You have a robust nose piece in case there's an impromptu volleyball match on the beach
1:45
Highway in and danger zone. The guy who spikes the ball, that's, he's wearing those
1:53
No shirt, tanned up, just what Jack is looking for. There are buttons on it, as there should be, as well as what looks like a microphone
2:00
And that is a micro USB port to charge it up. Okay, cool. An extra nose piece, a carrying case slash cloth
2:06
Otherwise, these things operate like Bluetooth headphones. Oh, see how that works, Jack
2:13
It hides kind of behind the ear a little bit there. You're just this guy
2:31
When you put something like this on you not the same person anymore What if I came to work and this is just casual though I don say anything
2:38
What's up guys? Connected. I don't, I mean, I, you know, I
2:53
ah you know it's uh i mean it's there it's like as if music was on in the background minus the
3:01
tickle like you're getting tickled that might be your thing if you got like will earlier he was
3:07
fiddling so he probably wouldn't mind being tickled as well it hasn't exactly come a long
3:12
way it's cool technology in the sense that like i don't feel cut off from the world at all but i do
3:17
hear audio playing but the sound is not in my opinion a substitute for headphones like it's
3:22
It's not immersive. Not a lot of bass. It's mostly mid-range and high stuff that comes through
3:28
It's useful, like if you were biking, jogging... But the volume is not that high either. That's the other thing
3:45
I don know you know what I think it kind of useful I don know I mean you gotta have a whole thing going on to just be out in public And this is you when the shades come off the music comes off as well So I mean you got to be in environments where the shades just stay
3:58
on. I mean, really fitness is, is kind of the only way that I see these things taking off because
4:03
that's kind of a personal thing. You don't have to be talking to anyone else. See, the thing is
4:07
this comes with the shades and the shades already send a message that like, you're not like, don't
4:12
talk to me i'm in my shades now you're even more in your own universe you're listening and you're
4:17
in your shades it's a whole thing maybe go on those long bike rides you know those guys
4:20
you can't you probably don't want to have headphones in car coming transport truck i
4:26
personally like this thing if you're doing some sort of physical activity and you want to have
4:30
some sound coming through without cutting you off from the universe that's what this thing
4:34
is about so keep that in mind don't have your expectations set too high as far as a replacement
4:40
for headphones to get lost in the music. This is more kind of ambience
4:45
You can hear your stuff, but you're still in the world. Optishox
4:50
X-Trainers. You know, I see they said trainers. I think that's exactly what they're going after, Jack
4:56
Guys like me, you know. Hashtag goals
