Remember he had to read the whole thing and he started laughing?
You did that exact thing!
I was acting, I was acting baby.
Bullshit!
Drama.
I never said that!
Preliminary.
I was arrested as a teenager.
I once got in trouble during drama school for showing up with a hickey.
I had to improvise a monologue last minute for my NYU audition.
I think we've had a conversation.
How are you getting arrested?
You were maybe breaking and entering somewhere?
What?
How did you steal when you broke and entered?
I didn't, I didn't steal.
How did you get arrested?
I was trespassing.
See, so how would I know that?
Because she maybe told you.
Exactly.
What side was the hickey on?
I don't remember.
What do you mean?
I don't remember what side it was on.
Probably my right.
Oh, probably.
My dominant side.
Wait, what was the third one?
I had to improvise a monologue last minute for an NYU audition.
That's interesting that you had to look at the card just then.
I didn't know which one was third.
Okay, and when you say improvise a monologue, what was the monologue?
It was a friendship breakup that I just made up on the spot.
I had to write it.
Was it a task that everyone had to improvise a monologue?
No, no, it's that I messed up.
Like I thought that I had to prepare a different kind of monologue
and then I had to just last minute write one up.
Sounds like bullshit to me.
Yeah, I just can't.
You're so meticulous, I can't like see.
This was ten years ago.
More.
Okay, side question.
I think that the lie is definitely the whole trespassing.
No, no, that is definitely the truth.
Really?
She's told me this.
That's why I brought it up first.
It's a short video.
You already know it.
Why don't you tell us?
Yeah, but I only know one, so now we've still got a 50-50.
I'm actually not sure about this monologue thing.
Yeah, no.
That would be her worst nightmare.
She does not like to be unprepared.
Yeah.
But wait, the second one was getting a hickey during drama class?
Yeah, I showed up with a hickey.
Oh, okay.
No, again.
You don't think?
No, look how immaculate she is.
Yeah, but they can't both be lies.
It's two truths and a lie.
Oh, right.
He's like, it's all a lie.
It's just a liar.
Oh, so there's two truths in there.
It's a liar.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, so that changes it.
Yeah, it does change it a little bit for me.
Hickey?
I kind of think hickey is more of a lie than the other one.
Yeah, I agree.
Because she's my daughter as well, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, you know what I mean.
So we think that the lie is that you showed up to drama class with a hickey.
Incorrect.
Ah!
What?
That's true.
I mean, yeah, that makes total sense now that we think about it.
Okay, we think the other lie is, oh no, that's a truth.
So that was a lie.
I don't know the game.
Yeah, yeah, you gave your answer and it was wrong.
The truth was that you-
I fooled you.
You improvised the monologue.
That was a lie.
Yes.
That happened to my friend though.
Oh, so it was another lie.
It happened to my friend but it didn't happen to me.
The drama.
And mysterious.
The preliminary evidence.
I've got a soft R.
I can fly a plane.
I broke the world record for skydiving at the highest altitude.
I can hold my breath underwater for four minutes.
How high was this record?
The record previously before mine was 18,000 feet.
I broke it at 22,000 feet, which is pretty high for skydiving.
That's a lot of feet.
Why did you go so much higher than the record?
Because the plane that we was in actually has a higher altitude.
And it was like, if you do this, you've really smashed the record.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
What planes do you fly?
The plane I learned to fly in was a small plane usually for acrobatics.
So I learned to fly it to do the figure eight, the loop the loop.
Was this for a project?
Yeah, I learned to fly it for a film.
And then I had to do the-
What was the film?
Actually, a documentary about learning how to fly.
No way.
Yeah.
I actually believe that.
Wait, what's the third one again?
The third one is I can hold my breath underwater for four minutes.
I had an underwater sequence that required me to really stay there for a long time without breathing apparatus.
But there was breathing apparatus there, but the sequence was so long.
And because you've got camera teams underneath.
What was the movie for?
It was called Above the Below.
Above the Below.
Has anyone ever heard of this movie?
If he were to break a record, it wouldn't be by that much.
That's a lot of feet.
It's a lot of feet.
You know what I mean?
It just feels crazy.
I know, but he's always doing little side quests like that.
I just think it's such a big jump for breaking someone else's record.
And the other two feel very specific to projects.
Like you had to train and learn to do something.
Look, I trust you.
This is your cross to bear.
Okay, so we think your lie is breaking the record.
That is correct.
Yes!
We did it!
But just for the record, I did break a Guinness Book of Records and that was a speed record.
I was the fastest man on a beach in a mile.
No way.
Wow.
Preliminary evidence.
I was the southwestern unicycling champion from ages 11 to 13.
I worked part-time as a manny, which is a male manny.
I was the only boy in a class of 12 girls for two years in high school.
Unicycling champion?
Yeah, basically there were these competitions where you just basically have to stay on a unicycle for as long as you possibly can.
Southwest?
Yeah, southwest.
What about the northwest?
I have no idea.
It was regional.
Uni-regional, I get it.
Yeah, it was the Hammersmith Borough.
Okay, this manny situation.
Yeah.
What age were you?
I must have been 21.
I wasn't able to tell.
I forget all of their names.
Oh, really? A manny?
One of them was Tom, I think.
That's crazy, because I babysat a kid a few times and I know her name.
He was in school and he was the only boy in a girl's school?
He told me this once.
Really?
Yeah.
We should not have had so many conversations in our life before this moment.
So let's go back to the unicycle.
Yeah, let's go back to unicycling.
I'm glad to.
How did you get into unicycling?
I was actually a really big fan of the circus when I was a kid. I was a very nerdy kid.
The unicycle thing sounds stupid.
It's so ridiculous, but so was your thing, the skydiving.
And Nick was skeptical because he was like, that could be the red herring. This could be his red herring.
I know. The only boy that all the boys left.
But it was a Greek school. The manny thing, I don't know why I feel like that one's also true.
But then again, he doesn't remember the kids' names.
No. I mean, I'm more inclined to go with the unicycle thing.
And he was getting really nervous when we were talking about it.
Yeah, and he had to remember, he had to read the whole thing and he started laughing.
You did that! You did that exact thing!
I was acting, I was acting, baby.
We think that the lie is that you was a professional unicycle.
I've never said that!
I thought you said you won the Southwestern champion.
I said I held a record. I said the Southwestern champion.
You have to be a professional.
It's a lie!
Yeah, it's definitely a lie.
I clearly didn't really think about this. I wrote these answers in lunch.
And yes, it's a bald-faced lie. And I don't know why.
I don't know why I picked something so ridiculous.
Hey, by the way, I really am into the circus.
You was a Manny for how long?
A few years, yeah.
What? You don't remember their names?
I can't.
They're probably watching this going, what? You taught me how to play football!
You taught me how to unicycle!
Thank you so much for watching and be sure to check out Masters of the Universe.
