Dragons Shocked By Entrepreneurs' "Choke Hazard" Safety Product | Dragons' Den

Gavin Davis takes to The Den to present his unique baby gripping product, an idea that prevents babies from choking risks and hazards. Gavin is off to a promising start as he asks for £150K investment for a 20% return of his business. But how will The Dragons react when they discover that his "child-safe' product is not as safe as he may have thought?
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

What's that supposed to mean

[@JBryc3]

@Alex Dalex just looking for an explanation is all, not condescing comments on my assumed age. I'm 43 for the record now if you have an explanation of appreciate if you shared the joke.

[@JBryc3]

@Alex Dalex just reported your comments for racism :)

A great example of an excellent pitch. I feel sorry for him when the flaw in the product was presented.

[@Jamesey101x]

That is the most elegant soothing voice I’ve ever heard.

2:46 "...the best way to demonstrate this product, if I may, is to demonstrate it".

I'm thinking this could also be could for some disabled children as a child with poor balance can also slide much more easily. It could actually be very usual for a lot of parents.

Theo’s face when he says “Kevin.. Look..” and the background music goes all eerie. That was like a scene from a horror film.

[@TravtheLord]

I hope he has solved this issue. Genuine guy. Comes across a problem and aims to solve it

[@shrewii666]

Why is this hashtaged ‘Large Heads’ 🤣🤣🤣

[@WobblesandBean]

Because whoever uploads this video has a strange, strange sense of humor.

[@tailblazer7219]

A true gentleman. I hope every success to him.

[@ameliashostak4764]

The second he started ripping it you could actually see the moment his soul left his body!! I felt that clear across the pond in the US!!

[@joshuanewton3824]

I actually really admire Gavin. Humble, professional and a clear-headed individual. You could tell he was devastated when Theo ripped up his mat, but kept a cool head and wasn't arrogant about it. Poor guy, I think it's a fantastic idea and I would definitely buy one. I pray he's really successful now.

[@bushbunnies]

I'm really surprised he didn't suggest putting a bittering agent in it. That's worked for countless other products that have consumption hazards. I really wanted to see him tell Theo to put it in his mouth and watch him spit it out because Gavin had already thought of that.

[@enter_universim]

'the best way to demonstrate this product is to demonstrate it' - pure genius

[@lNappa]

Theo weren't prepared to invest hes child's inheritance with this one😂😭

[@catman4471]

Real shame, it'a good product and he's a man who could go far.

[@ZevMeth_originaljewishmusic]

Someone pitching paper to the den: "I'm sorry, but this product is easily rippable, therefore it's not childproof, and for that reason I'm out!"

[@Jaypes1]

Very very well presented. This is a great example of good rebuttals.

[@MB-ey6vv]

What a well spoken bloke.

[@MitchellTF]

You gotta admire a guy who handles "Your invention is a complete and utter failure"...like a BOSS. And he takes the criticism.

[@basedlibertarianz910]

Gavin is awesome. He is the real dragon.
