Flex Seal should make a Flex museum, with all the flex items and vehicles stored and open on display

[@unkindled6410]

could work as a factory museum like the ones many car brands have.

[@cat47]

that's a stupid idea

[@unkindled6410]

@@cat47 why? like i said, they could have a small factory museum

[@-.Springtrap.-]

Could be a good tourist attraction

[@CheeseMiser]

@@cat47 like your parents not having that abortion

[@toop4538]

the boat shots looked so perfect at first it looked cgi but damn im so relieved that its REAL!

[@tylerphuoc2653]

Yeah, the lens and shadows made it almost look a little sus, but holy hell was it real

[@1MaxVader1]

The video looked like it was just a green screen at first.

[@artuno1207]

Combination of the steady cam and with how smooth the boat was going over the water. Plus, yeah, the lighting.

[@Deja117]

I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking this. We really are spoiled these days with production quality, it's amazing how fast things have caught up to the movies, click 1 button and you get near perfect chroma keying... Add a little software to compensate for shadows and hair on your head or something, and it's hard to tell even if you zoom all the way in.

[@ytToxicDreams]

Yeah I was almost certain it was green screen. Phil Swift is an absolute legend.

[@HankRichard]

I never realized how much work goes into these commercials. Really makes you appreciate them a lot more

[@The_Mythical_Potato]

I thought this scene was edited, but turns out it's a geniune Flex Seal stunt 👍

[@hellscream342]

Yeah I thought the same, looked really green screened at certain frames. Turns out they just using top end equipment

[@ItsLelingTime]

ARE YOU DOUBTING THE POWER OF FLEX TAPE?

[@Flickeralex]

To show you the power of Flex Duct Tape, I SAW THE WORLD IN HALF!! And repaired it with only Flex Duct Tape!!

[@spectatertot]

No, it’s flex duct tape super wide

[@marinacslayer7591]

I never knew you had such an amazing team. Truly a blessing of a job you all have

[@TumTumVr-pn1bz]

This is epic

[@Laluan]

This is just a 9-minute commercial, without being a commercial. I like it

[@slygg]

Actually one of the only companies whith respectable commercials. They actually show that they make good product and they do it by leaning into the memes.

[@razpootis5802]

The amount of effort put into filming these really shows in the final product. 💪

[@techny3000]

Flex is one of the most awesome brands and their commercials show 😎 I mean just look at what they do to show their products!

[@instasax9202]

For the longest time, I had no idea Phil Swift was the CEO. That just makes all those boats even more amazing.

[@veryfunnyguy7425]

Wait, he’s the ceo??? Dayum, thts cool asf

[@GruntGan]

HE WHAT?

[@ksaw3212]

In the ad it looked as if the footage of Phil was put over a stunt person, but the madlad did it himself

[@infamousquest]

These guys are the real deal. They can proudly say that only they do this stuff. And deserve every cent they make.

[@ebonytherussiafan2808]

I love Behind the scenes Because it really shows people how much work goes into making an advertisement. Who knows, maybe this can become A New series. I really loved the submarine one that was really cool and impressive.😊

[@PNDStudios]

I now have a new respect for Phil Swift and Flex Seal. Good stuff and as working in the Film industry, the behind the scenes stuff is great

[@ABC218_]

Once again going above and beyond to not only show how good the product is, but also entertain the audience. You guys are seriously the best. Flex On!💪🔛

[@shoeshiner9314]

Welp, there goes my summer. I already know i'll spend the rest of it making a Super Wide Flex Boat!

[@michaelt.9372]

Honestly couldn’t have picked a better spokes person. Phil being the CEO is the icing on the cakes a total natural. The roof of my dads RV sprung a leak, we did absolutely no prep and just sprayed it over the area we figured it was leaking from. It’s been over a year and it still doesn’t leak. I can’t believe how awesome it is. I think I want a flex seal umbrella! Lol

[@SmackedByJack]

I love Flex tape I’ve been using it for the past 5 years and it’s the best tape I’ve ever used Thank you Phil swift for creating the best tape in existence!

[@Exentity]

You know it’s great when there’s a marketing team *for the marketing team*

[@ambush_akula5261]

I give credit, that is top notch marketing, with behind the scenes to prove it

[@JamboreeBlackberry]

This is the definition of peak marketing

[@ATBZ]

The flex tape boat is like the spiritual sucessor to the duck tape wallet every cool kid had in elementary school

[@orusandornots1915]

I love Flex family of products because of their willingness to joke around and still remain factual. And Phil.. Phil is a treasure.

[@Foreign501st]

Loved that script showing at 1:01. "Wide on Phil" "Tight on Phil" 😂 I imagine the "wide" and "tight" is just camera work talk, but i still find it funny.

[@FDG323]

the fact that any of the crew had the balls to not wear something to cover their hair is astounding.

[@isaakc5159]

Tho I must admit your skills at what y’all do are pretty good and the fact the boat out of duck tap is vary much real it’s no surprise because even the myth busters made a couple of boats on their own

[@MCWiirdo]

Oh man... I love the Flex Seal™family of products! We all should buy the Flex Seal™ family of products 50 times over!

[@100PercentOS2]

Phil Swift seems to be really enjoying doing this commercial. Great video and very honest about his products. It is so refreshing to watch Phil Swift.

[@MaxTV777]

Greatest Behind The Scenes in History!

[@fadelabdurrahman3469]

Phil Swift still delivers the energy and the happiness.

[@chargoesboom6990]

now THIS is the god if ALL tapes

[@gordon_ramsay2060]

Never thought I would enjoy ads

[@Abrothers12]

2015: To show you the power of FlexTape, I sawed this boat in half! 2023: To show you the power of FlexTape, we put this boat together!

[@cyphre]

Could practically do a whole series on Flex Seal boat building.

[@kratosorokai1546]

also i love how great the team is flex seal certainly ahs the best commercials

[@CaptainCandycorn]

I haven't watched television in years due to the constant advertisements pushing products in your face, but I specifically come here to watch these 1-5 minute advertisements because they are just that good. I love Phil, he seems to enjoy what he does and doesn't take himself too seriously. Hes able to laugh and have fun, and he knows just how absurd all this is!

[@Charles37400]

Their also just objectivley more helpful ads that show what the product does, and how that product can be pushed beyond its designed use. Modern ads often rely on selling an asthetic or a lifestyle or rely too heavily on comedy because they either cant or dont feel like showing how their stuff is actually any different from a standard non-branded copy of the same thing. Coke will sell you the idea of being on a beach with hot people, not the drink. Car companies will sell you on scenic road trips and outdoor lifestyles on a car youll only use to get back and forth from work. Meanwhile Phil here actually demonstrates the product and explains it.

[@FartingCarts]

The perfect video to sit down and eat a snack too

[@luckyswordsmen991]

I love this

[@stephenbachman132]

JonTron will be happy with this behind the scenes. Great job. Tape looks useful.

[@MICROKNIGHT3000]

It was nice seeing the script and the key frames really reminds you that these went into creating it

[@B0RDERLANDFAN85]

The whole crew really gets to have a lot of fun making these which is one hell of a learning experience

[@daxythedogo]

Flex seal commercials are the only commercials people actually want to watch, and for good reason.

[@Umb19]

LETS GO! FLEX WIDE

[@Liam-Gaming574]

Phill's at it again!, I actually used Flex Tape for a school project, thanks for the super strong formula Phill!, It was able to handle a lot of movement (it was a solar system project and we had to make it spin and the motor to spin it broke off and i went "shoot, need to get some tape for that?, But what brand?, I know! FLEX TAPE!" thanks for making this product Phill!

[@RikuoCZ]

Phil Swift... You are my hero :D

[@MeNoSee]

Woo its the boy Phil

[@mlgproplayer2915]

"Not gonna do it!" You convinced me there, Phil.

[@ColumbaAntiquissima]

Wait I never realized that Phil is the actual ceo??

[@LinKueiDragon]

No one could be better.

[@Torcalie]

That makes this so much better 😂

[@Presidential_Grand_Party]

This is certified Phil swift moment

[@jamsandwich_gt]

The only company who I genuinely enjoy.

[@FAYYAD1410]

Wow thia is so amazing🥳🥳

[@raidshadowvpnprime7689]

"I want one of these!" *realisation* "I GOT ONE OF THERE!!"

[@SirNyanoftheCats]

This was awesome lol.

[@JonasJohansenIngilae]

I always wondered who the people behind these commercials are. outstanding marketing and incredible team!

[@taicollins2303]

I love he just like....takes em home. This man is a million dollar CEO, bombing around the lakes in a boat made of tape lol

[@TheEpicNub]

Looks like a fun place to work honestly

[@jadey8989]

very cool

[@amazing1904]

Flex on! 💪 🔛

[@seshboy2941]

This is cool as hell lol.

[@kingcherryblossom2059]

Dude, that is WILD. I’m gonna have to get me some super wide flex duct tape

[@jakgal041]

In addition to selling Flex Seal, these guys should sell "how to make a commercial" to every other business. No stupid ass ukulele with a bunch of jackasses clapping in the background, no stereotypes, no fakery, just demos and real life examples.

[@Bulldozermaniac]

Phil swift is the best best tape best paste best whatever i love it

[@TheOnlyName]

This is so epic lol

[@MICROKNIGHT3000]

I want to see Phil Swift and Dean Norris side by side, the two legends!

[@ytToxicDreams]

" I want one of these! *I've got one of these* " 😂

[@Mjdecker1234]

Flex seal could have sealed the fate of that Submarine

[@crocodagoddess]

Awesome

[@ClellBiggs]

Imagine taking quite possibly the most versatile thing ever invented and making it even better.

[@RavioliguyRavioliguy]

Phil Swift a real one fr

[@grap6326]

Flex Seal fixed my life

[@yhatsupsotheracc]

HYPE

[@bare_bear_hands]

"I want one of these; I got one of these!" I think Phil made an entire company just so he could ride his custom-built boats and off-roaders 😂

[@carltonleboss]

Epic

[@realnarwhal]

idk why, when I first saw the commercial I thought it looked so fake, glad to see it was real!

[@SpoopyNekoBitsy]

I WAS HERE!

[@kenomadlao4066]

I never thought that this guy was the CEO bro Phil is the greatest CEO and energetic CEO i seen

[@JaSon-wc4pn]

Nice welds on the boat

[@shoulderpyro]

yknow. I thought that boat in the water was a CGI Greenscreen hot damn am I impressed its an ACTUAL boat

[@pukas7389]

Now they need to make a flex tape jet boat

[@kyle207]

These guys and scrub daddy have the best marketing team

[@wynnedwards94]

"So tell me how you are feeling" "How are you feeling?" Lmao that's funny to me

[@Whatisthis195]

Lol I love how in the original video the “disclaimer” was used very hard pressure to apply! Not, used a special brand, multiple layers etc. just a strip of this stuff😂

[@kekchanbiggestfan]

This is the real commercial

[@angrydalek]

Now you need a clear duck tape for that glass bottom speed boat. You truly have come a long way from “I sawed this boat in half” Wish your stuff wasn’t so expensive for the amount you get

[@RiddimWook10]

The wide flex tape really isn't *that* expensive imo. 20 bucks per roll really isn't outrageous considering you're probably going to buy it with a specific purpose in mind, whereas a regular roll of duct tape is just something that you keep around the house.

[@Amiboy1212grau]

Omg that right there is strong

[@lolz2165]

1:03 nice little duck

[@dante8641]

only real ones have seen this

[@joaomontesinos]

[@wildsalmon8410]

Fr

[@Error_Roblox_]

You should make flex seal tape ULTRA WIDE, like the width of a barrel for huge tarp holes 🕳️

[@rowear3984]

Phil swift is my favourite internet person

[@pizzasteve5825]

3:40 this explains so much lmao

[@Kanollie]

No way the production crew recreated my favourite moment in the commercial: 0:31

[@ultradimensions]

No way that boat was legitimate. Respect to Flex Seal.

[@Gkitchens1]

If your ever wonder can flex seal fix this? The answer is yes!

[@Sludge73]

Impressive, still not going to buy a giant roll of tape tho. Thanks for the look.

[@LuitpoldVI]

Waiting for the flex seal space shuttle

[@my_MillenniumFalcon]

How many of us decided to check out Phil Swift’s “making of” video courtesy of CS188’s YTP? 😎 Great job by Phil and his team though! 👏
