memorable welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 weirdest Shark Tank pitches
hello sharks
my name is les Cookson my product is the
car sick bed before we begin we publish
new content every day so be sure to
subscribe to our Channel and ring the
bell to get notified about our latest
videos for this list we’re looking at
pitches given in the shark tank that
were bizarre in their presentation in
the products and business ideas
themselves or a combination of all three
of course weird sometimes works so we’ll
be including pitches that were rejected
and accepted crazy to come into the tank
let me show you crazy check this out
number 10 the rocks hello hello hello
I’m Edwin heaven I’m the Creator Thrax
the cure for the missing suck when
you’re in the business of socks your
proposal really can’t afford to have any
holes in it sadly inventor Edwin heaven
clearly already very sold on his own
idea of triple socks couldn’t see the
shortcomings of his own product yes it’s
annoying when you lose a sock and sure
having an extra is convenient but then
you’re down to two socks and when you
inevitably lose one again you’re back to
square one socks
beats the competition by a foot the
Sharks are quick to point out that it
comes across as a bit of a novelty
product and Edwin responds with bad puns
is this a cute gift item that my wife is
gonna buy one time for our kids
no I believe that throgs has legs it’s a
strange and silly concept but the real
oddity is the inventors unshakeable
faith in his product and deeply
ingrained denial the fact that the shark
saw it as a novelty is a bit
disappointing number 9 cook and cap our
product is a never seen before
revolutionary cooking lifestyle
convenience product let’s get one thing
straight
this chef’s hat product isn’t an overtly
awful one if anything its biggest crime
also we suspect that if we were to pull
trendy young home cooks most would agree
that they’re far more concerned with how
this hat looks than how their hair
smells after cooking the traditional
chef’s hat that not only keeps the smell
of food out of your hair it also keeps
hair out of your food regardless what
really earns this entry is spot on our
list is the pitch don’t get us wrong
you should practice your presentation
but Julie DeVoe and osmocon clearly
forgot to practice being natural it
looks like they planned every smile
blink and breath the performance
seriously distracts from the product
Julie make him take it off your sales
are going to go down number 8
lose 12 inches in 12 workouts my name’s
Ryan cowboy aimin my company’s called
lose 12 inches with Haney 12 workouts we
warned you right from the outset some of
these pitches actually got themselves
the green light had we been sitting in
the position of the Sharks we’re not so
sure but hey they’re the professionals
and as they’ve clearly learned from
experience in the world of business
cheese sells that’s me I was a rodeo
rider on the pro rodeo circuit I then
started having chronic lower back pain
I went over 15 doctors they said I’d
never ride again or never do anything
physical and I’d have to live with a bad
back rodeo rider turned fitness expert
Ryan cowboy aimin comes into the shark
tank Hootin and Hollerin like a manic
cowboy hen dressed to match the part and
in three months time I shredded my body
down to four point three percent body
fat I healed
lower back pain and then I developed
rodeo as to win a national championship
in Dallas Texas he’s got a stereotypical
over-the-top larger-than-life online
personal trainer vibe to him it makes
for a pretty grating sales pitch but the
Sharks seem entertained by his antics
and he walked away with a deal from
Daymond John really I’m gonna believe
number seven Freaker USA my name is Zach
I invented this thing called a freak er
walking into the room like someone who
got on the wrong flight and missed his
intended destination of Burning Man Zach
Crane certainly stands out from his
fellow entrepreneurs the short shorts
the top hat the slow somersault the
intense eye the two fingered greeting
this guy was made for television just
not a show about business ventures his
Freaker USA koozies are actually pretty
cool but they aren’t exactly
revolutionary and his big personality
kind of overshadows them all right love
Vikings had it premiered when this
episode was filmed but in hindsight we
can’t help but notice that crane bears a
striking resemblance to floki not
exactly someone we’d want to invest in
either number six euro Club many of my
male patients have two things in common
number one well they urinate a lot
seasoned roadtrippers know all too well
the necessity of peeing in a portable
vessel on a long time sensitive Drive
water bottle sometimes get emptied only
to be refilled
but peeing in a golf club that’s a new
one urologist and creator of the euro
Club Floyd says Caen explains to the
Sharks that as a doctor and avid golfer
he was encouraged by his patients to
solve the issue of needing to urinate
while playing its intent is to alleviate
the anxiety and the embarrassment that
millions of men feel when they play
around a golf his solution is functional
and admittedly reasonably subtle but
it’s the sort of product that can’t help
but elicit giggles and disbelief we’re
not denying the problem but is this the
right solution
well investor Kevin Harrington seem to
think so I would give you the $25,000
for 70% of the cub you’re gonna buy the
foo-foo Pole Wow
number 5 ionic ear my name is Darren
Johnson and I’m here today to explain
the ionic year investment opportunity in
the debut episode of shark tank
viewers and the investors were given the
opportunity to bond over their shared
horror upon hearing the terrifying pitch
for
Yanik ear remember bluetooth headsets
that were once all the rage but have
largely since gone out of fashion
ionic ear entrepreneur Darren Johnson
wanted to surgically implant them in
people’s heads this is surgery you would
be under apart from biohackers and
extreme body modification enthusiasts we
can’t imagine anyone who would sign up
pretty disturbing and it freaks me out
I’m already up the idea itself earns
ionic irresponsive offered deadpan
delivery that made this extra unnerving
you know what it feels more like a
supervillain detailing a scheme for
world domination than a sales pitch
cylinders that delivers AC charge and I
very triple blow there and I’m out
number four
guard llama guard llama is a
state-of-the-art personal security
platform that provides discreet and
reliable security in your everyday life
let me be honest with you
this one is delightfully eccentric but
undoubtedly bizarre nonetheless from the
moment that co-founders Joe Parisi and
Nick Nevarez walked through the door
with a llama in tow we know that this is
gonna be a pitch to remember these two
men are clearly comfortable in front of
an audience and know how to field
questions they also know how to use eye
catching props without having them
overshadow the product they’re actually
pitching bringing in a real-life llama
before unveiling their emergency
Bluetooth device is bold but weird in
all the right ways admittedly the llama
pooping on the floor isn’t great but
they still left with a deal though I’m
I don’t think your pitches going number
three waken Baken hello sharks
my name is Matty sullen and my product
is called waken Baken shoddy amateurish
design check safety concerns
check lack of a business plan check a
novelty item with very limited sales
potential check the waken Baken is an
alarm clock that wakes you up to fresh
bacon what we really love about this
idea is that in 2011 when it was pitched
to Shark Tank the world had already seen
Steve Carell Michael Scott hurt himself
on the office with what was basically a
prototype for this very device inventor
mattiece alan starts off confident but
before long he’s utterly defeated as the
sharks tear this little piggy of an idea
to shreds
you got no projections whatsoever you
got a pig box it’s gonna catch on fire
and kill somebody I’m gonna be sued in
the Stone Age
oh and can we talk about the random
bunny hopping around in his video
I need the expertise the connections and
the money that the Sharks have to help
me get this mass produced that would be
a dream come true of mine number two
this Sullivan generator my name is Mark
Sullivan and I’m an inventor with over
1,000 inventions with his ionic year
Darren Johnson looks like a small-time
comic book crook next to the diabolical
earth-shaking machinations of Mark
Sullivan this oddball inventor comes to
the Sharks looking for funding to make
his generator a reality not only does he
promise that his device will create
cheap energy he also claims it’ll
desalinate brackish water and wait for
it produce gold what gold gold gold gol
D the scientist isn’t naturally met with
skepticism and dismissal courtesy of the
Sharks who quickly shift gears into
mockery
when Sullivan rattles off a staggering
series of facts about himself from the
money his other inventions have
allegedly generated to his experience
making women’s clothing and accessories
I write music I design clothing I sew
[Laughter]
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions my
business is the squirrel boss
squirrel-proof birdfeeder the cone is
placed over a natural attractant
provided by biscuit nothing works better
and we make protective underwear for
flatulence and I’m Arlene Weimer and
I’ve been wearing under these underwear
for flatulence for 15 years number one I
want to draw a cat for you Barbara hello
gentlemen my name is Steve Gadlin and my
company is I want to draw a cat for you
weird and wonderful sometimes go hand in
hand as is the case with our top entry
artist Steve Gadlin immediately charms
the Sharks and viewers around the world
when he begins his quirky dance and
accompanying song hey I got an offer
that you won’t believe Steve is
hilarious personable and super
self-aware his on-demand cat drawings
are by his own admission silly and not
unlike the pet rock but he embraces that
and in doing so shows the Sharks that
he’s the sort of unlikely entrepreneur
that they should be going into business
with how many can you draw in a day I
can draw about 25 of these in an hour in
a week I can knock out about a thousand
of these he walked away with a $25,000
investment from Mark Cuban and a
permanent place in our hearts and
memories as the most wonderfully weird
pitch in the show’s history you got
I love it you’re hysterical you very
much
