have you ever thought to yourself gee i'd love to have a movie night but i
0:03
just have too many gosh darn friends i mean
0:07
me neither but the point is you can easily fit five six seven people in the
0:13
living room and everyone can see the tv and be comfortable but what if you've got 20 friends or 50
0:19
friends or 100 friends well you're gonna need a different solution
0:24
and that is exactly what we plan to build
0:28
today you my friends are about to
0:31
witness the world's first
0:35
lamborghini that is also
0:39
a portable drive-in theater
0:44
see this right here it's taking me a while to get it out of the box but
0:47
viewsonic sponsored this madness with their 4k projector
1:02
the viewsonic px747 offers a crispy 4k
1:05
uhd resolution that can be used for viewing 4k content or gaming on screens
1:10
up to 25 feet diagonally colors are vivid thanks to HDR support and it's
1:15
very bright at 3 500 lumens that's enough to watch inside during the day
1:20
making the px747 the brightest projector under 1500
1:24
with up to 15 000 hours of lamp life and
1:27
an hdcp 2.2 enabled HDMI 1.4 port you
1:31
can hook it up to any console or media player you'd like check out where to buy
1:34
it at the link in the video description so step number one is some kind of a
1:39
plan for mounting the projector to the top of the car then here's our remote i
1:45
guess that's the first thing to talk about cable do you actually want to do the top of the car
1:50
oh i had thought so because what i was thinking could look
1:54
pretty cool yeah is instead of doing the top of the car
1:58
to have it like supercharge your style like right here so is this it we're just
2:02
gonna like put it on what are we even gonna project it at we
2:08
have a big old screen but we'll worry about that later once we
2:11
have it on yeah just give her
2:16
dang it
2:20
okay oh
2:26
this is a bad time this is hard for me to even watch okay here's this poor
2:30
drill yeah well it's the one well it's the bit that's slipping i'm
2:35
fine okay
2:40
okay uh
2:43
not me well i dropped i dropped a nut oh
2:48
i mean are we just leaving this mount here like i guess you can take the projector off temporarily to drive but
2:54
like this should this is street legal right just putting like a bracket on your car
2:59
right
3:10
that go through easy peasy all right and it wasn't even that close to my
3:14
fingers excellent
3:18
okay we good man yep perfect
3:21
nice i mean this should actually seal reasonably well shouldn't it the
3:25
rubber's really tight yeah
3:28
oh oh yeah there bud
3:37
so i think this water is to test the waterproofness of our seal here
3:43
this is rain does it
3:48
well that's not how it rains where you're from
3:51
gentlemen
3:54
what you're looking at me like you've never seen anyone mounting a projector
3:58
to the front of his car before
4:04
this is the mega screen xl quantity one
4:08
it weighs 21 pounds and for whatever reason they list the
4:12
box size but nowhere on the box or on
4:15
the product page for this thing wherever we bought it does it actually
4:20
list the screen size
4:24
wow that's not bad actually yeah that looks pretty much perfect
4:28
so we'll just have to make some angle adjustments but this is about how far
4:31
the car is going to be then okay so all that's left is to
4:35
rustle up some friends to share this experience with us
4:40
i really wish i brought my boots because even though it hasn't rained there's
4:44
enough dampness in the grass that my socks are getting wet not that i'm
4:47
saying that my socks are not the most optimal footwear for these conditions
4:51
the mega screen xl
4:57
it's mega ah
5:02
i don't want to play this game anymore
5:13
how how aligned am i here
5:17
okay i'm gonna get a little closer
5:21
viewsonic had no idea
5:25
what they had in store
5:29
when they sponsored this video
5:35
okay that should that should make up the difference here
5:39
this might actually look not bad do you want to get the focus i just want to
5:43
know what we're looking at here
5:47
hey just got to make some uh some of them
5:52
their adjustments there oh my god i thought we were going to do
5:57
like a movie how are we going to get this only
6:00
supposed to be an hour long how are we going to get a movie
6:18
okay we were all on on hangouts yesterday we're like i told alex i was
6:22
like okay we're announcing on twitter you can get it too soon there's gonna be
6:25
500 people and then i'm like and i'm like no it's
6:28
probably a hundred and then nick's like nah 250 avon's like 50. we're all wrong
6:34
i said no one was gonna show up well you're wrong too cause one person
6:38
did but then did he leave no no
6:44
you know what screw it i'm playing video games tonight i don't even care
6:48
oh i want pizza we only gave 24 hours notice and there's
6:52
just a balloon at the end of this driveway when people are getting lost
6:57
like up there even when i came by wait that weird that weird party balloon is
7:00
us who's john oh dude blame the new guy why did we put a
7:04
balloon there that doesn't even make any sense and that was like a really funny balloon
7:09
right how would they see it it's like in the tall grass
7:13
we can see it from this side oh i'm here this is i've never heard the Windows
7:17
test tone that loud
7:23
all right i've had enough yeah
7:28
how many people did show up three oh
7:31
oh four well it's a good thing it was more than three otherwise i might have
7:34
been embarrassed that's how many controls all right so we're playing first goal wins and then you gotta
7:39
rotate out so someone get on deck for each of us i will be orange
7:43
no i will be blue then i don't know the buttons for this game
7:54
ah you're done son
7:58
all right who's next let's watch that marshall highlight
8:04
oh who just hit the projector
8:07
alex new animal yeah yeah yeah
8:14
i love that both of the cars are called minus tech tips so i score no matter what that could trickle in there oh
8:19
another own goal for team orange
8:22
i'm really glad 100 people didn't show up that would have been terrible well
8:27
whoever's blue actually knows how to play this game that's cheating i'm gold three in rumble right now
8:35
but this is all wrong the bindings i call hacks
8:40
yay go team blue and i didn't even have to do anything it always blows me away
8:44
how good a projector can look when it's actually legitimately dark
8:48
