Sara Davies Acknowledges This Entrepreneur Has A Rare Deal | SEASON 18 | Dragons' Den
Ойын-сауық
Robert Simpson introduced The Tipsi Tray to The Dragons, which is a design that Robert describes as being a tray that makes it easier for restaurant/bar staff to carry multiple drinks using only one hand. He's seeking an investment of £50,000 for 10% of his company, The Single Handed, but Touker Suleyman reckons he's seen something like this before...
Season 18, Episode 10.
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.

Theo - hi, i bought this tray from you but its broken! Store - ah sorry about that, can i ask how it was broken? Theo - well i swung it over my head and smashed it into the floor. Store - get out of my shop.
It wasn't merely dropped, Theo absolutely wanged it at the floor.
Theo’s criticism is ridiculous he was swinging it when it dropped lol

The fetus really doesn't understand physics does he. Dropping a tray is very different to swinging it into the ground. You can tell he's really proud of his reputation for breaking products.

The ammount of force that tray would of had on it after doing a spin. I mean I could understand if it was meant to be used like that but for a general tray its not meant to be full force smashed into the ground and not expect the plastic to break.
Sarah is so sweet, love her.
0:35 it’s official, the dragons don’t have boxes. Maybe the producer messed up there 😂
Absolutely agree with sarah! Ive watched enough of these videos and theo always picks at the most silliest things either not to invest and make himself look good with his rubbish reasons or he just wants to ask for more equity. Very pretentious man.
Is anyone else a bit confused by this guy's sales strategy? Mentioned Amazon and appears to be gojng down the route of home-use. Surely the hospitality industry is the winning market here?
"You accelerated it toward the ground" Bro discovered gravity
His company "Single Handed Ltd" is 200k in debt. Ouch.
If he breaks the tray, make a version out of metal for the clumsy people.. It was going with speed like he said, it was not normal use

Centrifugal force. Did you completely zone out in high school?
Theo does make a good point, if you watch the video and Theo's swing again, he drops it from waist height with a glass on it. Yes it had a bit of momentum but for a tray to split in half from one drop at that height is still pretty flimsy considering If your familiar with working in a bar etc you could potentially have 6 or 8 pint glasses on the tray that will put alot of weight on it when it drops. They aren't going to want to replace trays along with glasses
Multi Millionaires don't know the difference between dropping and throwing.
The.... The thumbnail is wrong... Whos in charge of this
A cheap tray killed his pitch.
Feel always trashes products that are similarly to what he sells, because he wants to demolish the competition, if he feels he cannot take that business on. Underhanded little poker player, that Theo.

Theo has been doing that for years. He uses force to smash products and then complains how rubbish they are. Using his logic 99.9% of products are worthless including iPhones, smart TVs, cars etc.

I think dragons should tune down their feedback and make sure they aren't ridiculing contestants. Give harsh feedback if needed. But not in an arrogant way like Gordon Ramsay would.

Why, because he rightfully shred the guy's idea to pieces?
I don't blame Theo here, I blame Robert. If Robert didn't show them his swinging trick in the pitch, the dragon's wouldn't have done it, and the drop/break wouldn't have happened. Show off the product on merits, not flashy tricks.
Teij was good , the new dragon is boring and weird
I WANT to like Theo, heis normally good to watch, and he seems like a charming, knowledgeable guy. However his politics do seem a tad right wing. Its well known he supported Brexit, but now when reality has set in, he has changed his mind.
