WEBVTT 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.640 So, people got really freaking excited about the red iPhone. Like, holy crap, 00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:11.599 look at all these super successful videos. So, as usual, we ran out and 00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:16.400 bought one immediately to see what all the fuss was about. We ripped open the 00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:22.240 package, and what the crap is this? It's the exact same phone. Even the front and 00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:28.960 the accessories are still white. Why are 3 million people watching these videos 00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:30.320 about this same freaking phone? 00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.920 What are we going to do with this phone? Now, if a video about the new red iPhone 00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:38.079 model is worth 3 million views, then if 00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:43.840 I can make a video about the world's only blue iPhone, I should be able to 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:46.080 get 10 million views. Now, all I need is 00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:51.029 the blue 00:00:53.800 --> 00:01:00.719 iPhone. So, there is a right way to change the color of an iPhone. I looked 00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:05.280 it up. You have to gather all the tools that you need for the job. Meticulously 00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:09.840 take the phone apart. Be very careful when you're painting it. And then, oh my 00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:15.119 god, you have to put it back together somehow. Oh my god, I do not have time 00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:20.600 for that. Luckily, this is Linus Tech Tips and no one expected me to do it 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.600 properly anyways. 00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:26.000 So, here's my haul of super proass 00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:31.360 modding equipment that I will use to generate that sweet, sweet AdSense 00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:37.200 money. Ignoring the cost of the $1,000 for the phone, this was only about 10 00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:38.960 bucks. Man, I love my job. Okay, let's 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:44.400 start with Play-Doh. I think that's going to be the best one. This actually 00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:49.119 looks pretty freaking good. It's kind of coming along. I would be down with a 00:01:47.119 --> 00:01:53.280 case that looked like that. Next up, blue duct 00:01:50.600 --> 00:02:00.240 tape. Just do some fine tuning to the tape with an Xacto 00:01:56.600 --> 00:02:01.840 knife. Okay, one little strand left. So, 00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:06.240 neither of those methods actually really worked that well. So, we're going to go with something a little bit less 00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:12.119 conventional. Why not wax? We're going to melt some of these blue candles and 00:02:08.160 --> 00:02:12.119 see if we can make that work. 00:02:23.440 --> 00:02:30.080 Okay, so maybe no more fire onto the cardboard, but the parts where the wax 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:33.760 actually stayed is not that bad. Okay, so the concept here is that these toilet 00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:39.160 bowl cleaners will turn the water in the bowl blue. So maybe they can turn the 00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:42.400 phone blue caution toxic 00:02:39.160 --> 00:02:44.160 irritant. What the? I'm not doing that. 00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:48.400 So, for our next experiment, I thought maybe we'd try some like, you know, 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:53.200 photon transfer stuff. Is that going to work? Does that look blue to you guys? 00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:58.319 Except when you do that, it's still red. So, okay. Maybe we need to try one more 00:02:55.760 --> 00:03:03.360 thing. For our final experiment, we will be using plasti dip blaze blue. All 00:03:01.200 --> 00:03:08.239 right. So, we have left the iPhone to dry. The plasti dip has settled. You can 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:12.400 see on the outsides that it doesn't look quite as good as in the middle where 00:03:09.760 --> 00:03:16.800 it's actually like that deep royal blue. Um the coverage is quite solid except 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:22.720 for if you go to the from the edges and you back at square one. So none of that 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:27.920 worked. I've got one option left. I can hold my breath as hard as I possibly can 00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:41.029 and hopefully when I turn blue, so does the phone. 00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:52.560 Wait a minute. I've been putting way too much work into this. If I want views on 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:57.280 my blue phone video and I want that sweet, sweet sponsorship money, why 00:03:54.879 --> 00:04:02.480 didn't I just use Dbrand in the first place? They have free worldwide shipping 00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:06.400 if you spend over $20. And you can just go to their shop button and configure 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:10.720 whatever device you want. I'm going to use iPhone right here. Oh, thank you 00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:16.320 very much. I'm going to pick iPhone 7. And then just select the blue true color 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:20.880 option. Oh my goodness, it's even less than $10, which is technically cheaper 00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:24.960 than what I spent at Dollarama for the supplies for this video. They are all 00:04:23.280 --> 00:04:29.919 precision cut and will match up perfectly with your device. Use 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:35.440 dbrand.com/blueballs now to pick up your own. And boom, blue iPhone. Mission 00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:39.040 accomplished. We did it, Reddit. 3 million views, tons of sponsorship 00:04:36.960 --> 00:04:43.360 money. Okay, but seriously, this video was never intended to be all about 00:04:40.960 --> 00:04:48.080 poking fun at the hysteria every time Apple invents a new freaking magic hue. 00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:52.800 We were inspired by the red iPhone and our love for the color blue to talk 00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:58.400 about your balls. Ticular cancer is the leading cancer among men aed 15 to 44, 00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:02.639 but it is also the most treatable cancer if caught early by 00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:06.800 self-examination. Yes, friends, we're telling you to touch yourself. And to 00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:12.080 help disseminate awareness about this cause, we're holding a charity eBay 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:16.880 auction for this actual phone. This one right here. The only product red special 00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:22.000 edition that was at one point in time blueed by Lionus Media Group on the 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:26.560 planet. To be clear, it still works just fine. It's not set up yet, but yeah. And 00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:31.600 actually has almost no remnants of our experiments on it. I cleaned it myself. 00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:33.840 And it includes a bucket of blue Dbrand 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:38.560 skins in their carbon and true blue colors. So, here you go. This is your 00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:43.039 chance to get something random from LT while simultaneously supporting two 00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:47.600 amazing causes. Healthy babies, you know, the whole point of the Project Red 00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:52.400 thing, and Healthy Balls. We're going to donate 100% of the auction price to 00:05:49.840 --> 00:05:56.880 testicular cancer.go. We've got them linked in the video description. And 00:05:54.160 --> 00:06:02.320 we'll post an Instagram video of us doing it, all while giving you the 00:05:59.039 --> 00:06:04.960 nuttiest shout out we've ever unloaded. 00:06:02.320 --> 00:06:09.280 Thanks for watching, guys.
