Entrepreneur With No Sales Asks For $775,000 From The Dragons | Dragons' Den Canada

[@I34R]

When he said he sold his condo for this, my heart broke to million pieces.

[@ScottOSaurus]

Not mine, he’s delusional and his family is to blame for encouraging such nonsense.

[@SunnyByNoon]

Tf you talking about this product is genius

[@edwardtruong1849]

Don't feel too bad for the lad, he still has his wife who drives him crazy. It's ironic, because I guess she stayed in the hotel or at home than to support his crazy ass!

[@PuthSardaraDha]

“I’m not crazy, I’m married” 😂

[@Noelhall88]

This video went from amusing to seriously depressing real quick

[@CabbageYe]

No kidding, yikes! 😬

[@aalokjoshi6839]

Yea some of the earlier dragons den episodes are tough to watch. This guy for example isn’t insane… just so naive.

[@cuthwulf]

This is why, at a certain age, you are forced to be involved in your parents' day to day activities and finances because it only take a single moment to flush all they've worked for down the drain and be put in a situation where they are now a burden to you.

[@Bull1908]

O'Leary is always a tough businessman but he is definitely more shrewd and tough in this version compared to Shark Tank

[@Isher13]

if he done this now most snowflake communites e.g lgbtqstxw+=_ plus whatever crap would get him cancelled because they cant stand differences of opinions

[@NaveedHassan1]

What the absolute eff. This guy is 100% off his rocker.

[@makavelideathrow3819]

No is is not 100% "off his rocker". He is just "married".

[@aalokjoshi6839]

He’s not crazy man. It’s so easy to dismiss people as “crazy”. He’s naive he’s in over his head. He’s on a futile mission. He may have been a fine upstanding professional for 40+ years. He’s just down the wrong path.

[@Nocturnalux]

His son did him a disservice- assuming he is telling the truth- by encouraging him.

[@dontbedummy8101]

Maybe he raised a family that cannot say no to him, because you can tell when he talks to the dragons he is no receptive at all.

[@goodfty]

@@dontbedummy8101 I agree it was stupid and what he was asking for was stupid. However I wonder if there was no patent for this sort of thing and he managed to get it. I wonder if there is nothing exactly like he was mentioning. It's either that or he is crazy and his patent is for something he didnt specify.

[@Thepopcornator]

Too bad they didn't ask him how he came to that valuation--I would've loved to see him try to justify it.

[@wolfura]

He did explain it. The evaluation is that high so he can raise more money percentage wise as he needs 500k for the mold alone.

[@Thepopcornator]

@@wolfura That’s why he needs the money. That is VERY different from why the company is worth that money.

[@ellekay4758]

his son said it was a good idea.

[@Blackinson27]

4:55 - Everyone is already out without saying they're out hahaha 😂😂

[@socawarrior1263]

He could probably design these privately and install them

[@Scoo]

You could build this thing with materials bought at Home Depot.

[@Lincolntowncoupe]

The handle being where it is kind of defeats the purpose. The handle should be down low and you can grab with your foot.

[@nerd185]

6:00 holy shit he is a time traveler

[@voyagetravel1840]

Some guy wearing a trench coat and dark shades told him if he pays him he cam get his patent approved in a day

[@abaoj]

Omg...he sold his house for this...? His son should have tell him before it was too late...

[@premtimramadani6929]

Remember kids, when you are 66 it's too late to take a risk like this

[@jeremydoucet8918]

I don’t even see what’s proprietary. And even if it had some unique mechanism that could be patented - probably many ways to get around it.

[@RobDucharme]

0:58 That's actually the best possible answer given the context of inviting a woman to go to the kitchen. lol I get the sense the producers of this show do this on purpose. They find a few really good inventors, and then the rest that get paraded through are doing so with the producers KNOWING they have no sales or product. It's unnecessary drama to feed the masses who soak it up. Just like all other "reality tv" (hint: there's very little that is real about reality tv shows). Frankly, the Dragons were as honest as they should have been to this guy. 7:16 Yeah well Kevin, you're wrong. The producers of this show will double down and find someone more crazy. That's how it works. Pathetic that Dragons Den brings in guys like this.

[@tacitus539]

Generally speaking, you’re probably right. But if you have a dearth of good entrepreneurs, you have to fill in the gap somehow.

[@WantonBaby]

Tooooo Truuuuu ITS ENTERTAINING the shargons just invest in successful situations ITS KNOT ABOUT AWESOME IDEAS 💡 KICKSTARTER HAS KICKED THESE SHRUD BANKERS TO THE CURB !!!!

[@JazzyMarineVet]

I stoppped watching a 2 minutes, when he said no sales. This guy is off his rocker, I will save the rest of my head space to watch good DD episodes

[@wiktorpolit8828]

What an absolute king

[@draculastraphouse7863]

Yeah he's the king of idiots

[@TheMrCC21]

Nothing manufactured which means the product is obviously not on the market and no sales. The kicker is he thinks no other products like his exist because they are not patented. Like, what?

[@erepsekahs]

Poor guy. Never do something like this at this age.....or in fact, never do anything like this at any age. If you ever shake hands with Kevin O'Leary - - - when you get your hand back just give it a quick check to make sure all your fingers are still there.

[@k.o.b.i.e.]

These are very common here in italy. Poor guy

[@getpoked2498]

How old is this, my aunt has something similar to this the moment she bought her house in LA, it's been at least 7 years

[@jaimhaas5170]

Poor guy. When the Canadian "loon" matches his idea.

[@RUOK2000]

Why did he bring a pen in his top pocket?

[@ellekay4758]

his son definitely failed him. He's unhappy with his life so wanted to screw over his sweet dad for some reason.

[@ricofama1785]

just....wow

[@Yessirdo]

Pull it out kick it in

[@jomojojo6603]

Unfortunate. I wonder what he has patented. One small difference might make another similar system free of his patent.

[@tommylehomme8695]

What is it with people and crooked glasses?

[@SG-jm7np]

Asks the only woman in the room to get in the kitchen lol

[@ThatLadyInDallas2024]

How come so many entrepreneurs value their companies so insanely? Many times it's an automatic no from the dragons. 🐉 Duh! Oh. BTW. You can go to the Container Store (& other stores) to find hardware to make your drawers and trash cans pull in & out. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Weird guy.

[@jamesflames6987]

They don't think about the valuation. They think about how much money they want, how much they're prepared to give away, and the valuation gets implied from that.

[@Naijanest]

You don't tell someone is crazy if you ain't investing in his idea...at least some politeness

[@diaryofseresha]

Poor old man, i feel so bad for him. This is what happens when the spoiled rotten children do not help out their elderly parents who in old age start acting child like n become delusional. Had he had a son/daughter involved in his life, they could've guided him before coming to the show.

[@andypeavans]

They did guide him,they encouraged him. The kids just don't sound very intelligent. But that has cost them a lot of inheritance

[@Numberonechesspest]

The lesson is, dont trade your home for garbage

[@Cypher791]

Sounds very violent…. 🥾🗑️👀

[@mjlives5428]

He now a billionaire Google it....Ok I lie....lol

[@WinstonBuford]

He needs Arthur Million.

[@belltolls1984]

This guy is a total clown, wow.

[@coalhouse1981]

The Canadian version always picked some the worst products

[@mjlives5428]

The Wish version of Shark Tank

[@wrestlingkokichi]

This has got to be fake, why would they let this ridiculous pitch on the show

[@howiefeltersnatch7905]

I actually kinda feel bad for him

[@serpentvert]

The pitcher meant: you are unique in that you are a woman in the den ... This old school mentality needs to change if he wants to attract serious investors.

[@danny91pr]

Chillout bro

[@kevindunlap5525]

Amazing the percentage of Canadians that appear on this show alone that don't speak English.

[@renanboni7636]

was he speaking Chinese?

[@PORCHMANKEY]

About a quarter of the Canadian population speaks French, these types of accents are completely normal and your observation is moot.

[@iraboss6691]

Ever here french-canadian ??

[@johnbertrand7185]

Heck I'll give him the $775, 000 Canadian. That's like $20.11 US and I have that in my wallet now.

[@PORCHMANKEY]

$575,986 us. Weird comment.

[@elvickRULES]

@@PORCHMANKEYit’s a joke because your money is worthless. Don’t get mad at John, go be made at Blackface McGee and yourselves for continuing to vote for him.
