My brother is a few years older than me, and the whole family is absolutely certain my brother's friends did it. We had 2 VCRs connected to the TV, one working and one half broken (we just used it for RF switching). They stole the working one and left the broken one behind. They definitely had inside information about what to steal, they knew we were gone, and they knew we would not return for several weeks. Theft is not random. A lot of it is done by people you've met before. Now that people post everything on facebook, everyone knows when you're gone.

I learned a lot from this show, I've had a pair of GSD's ever since and actually lock my stuff 🤔

When I was about 22 years old and I was asked by my parents to watch over their house that I grew up in over the summer, like "check in now and then and water the plants", and one day I find the door to be unlocked and my childhood home to be upside down and trashed by someone who I do not know, someone who I never allowed entry, I can kind of understand how you would say that it "feels like you've been raped", but obviously it is not the same as actual rape. But it was something so disturbing. It didn't leave me or my parents with the feeling of "oh no our stuffs gone!", it was the knowledge of someone intruding your home and destroying it, taking whats yours, not respecting your autonomy, not respecting your place that is supposed to be yours and safe.

@amberlynnbaker5293

That's understandable because you were actually robbed. It takes away your sense of safety. These guys are absolutely devastated over having their house messed up. Just feels weird that they'd react that way when they know that they are getting all their stuff back and said this was okay to do.

I cant believe this show really happened! They actually broke the people's property 😂😂. The pawn shop joke you made really should have been a part of the show. Great video as always!

This kid is hilarious. I always crack up at how shocked he is about how whacked out the world was from 2000-2006. I feel old…

Watching this show back in the day I never got the getting upset over watching a mock robbery of your house. Like it's not hard to differentiate fact from fiction and you're getting everything back. Unless I guess they were told and coached to react as if it's real.

You have quickly become a staple in my house Chris! Everyone's excited when you upload. Keep up these awesome videos, i had completely forgotten about this show!

Oh, I get it now. The producer's of shows like this and Gordon Ramsay's early shows weren't interested in helping people learn security or how to run a business they were only interested in tricking people into consenting into massive privacy violations. They didn't want to help they wanted to exploit!

I don't understand how emotional they get when all these are just easy fixes. And his take from everything. I should lock my doors lol

Ha! I was on this show! I had a security dog business and they had scheduled a local dog trainer to be on the show. I knew the guy and he had asked me how to handle his performance. Long story short, the guy went out drinking the night before production and the producer wound up calling g me out of the phone book in desperation. Was actually a really fun day!

You are truly one of the funniest people on KZread. You say all the things I think while watching dumb shows...but you're way funnier and have way more Babe tapes. Thanks for always making me laugh.

I remember this show, what a time to be alive. Fairly certain key code doors in an interior space , would be against fire code.

Hell yeah my boy Chris James back to reignite some memories of shows best left forgotten.

i love that i can always count on your channel to provide me with that instant rush of “WAIT I REMEMBER THAT SHOW AHHHH” lmaooo thank you so much

When I read the thumbnail I immediately think of an episode of always sunny in Philadelphia where the gang does a extreme make over Philly edition. They go to this families house blasting heavy metal, wake em up and put black bags over their head lol. Screaming "GOOD MORNING JUAREZ FAMILY"!! If you haven't seen it, I bet it's on youtube. And if you've never seen the show, then I feel bad for you.

I’m really glad the show is real and not some thing I just fever dreamed from my childhood.

Loved this show! There were a couple other weird ones like “Estate of Panic” and “Chase”

I remember that show! My older sibling and I watched it a lot one summer, and we became super paranoid and freaked out when the UPS guy came (they posed as movers one episode). Honestly the episode shown seemed mild, beanie guy usually smashes so much shit. The most iconic episode was called "The House that Fought Back", where they robbed a magician's house and the thief kept getting caught up in the tricks. In hindsight, that was probably staged, it's a little ridiculous that a thief would be deterred by snake in a jar...

You should watch one of the later episodes where they do the initial burglary at a random time so the family comes back and sees it for themselves, it feels a lot more realistic and is interesting to see them watch the replay.

“You don’t have any valuables do you “?😂😂😂 I started dying laughing so hard 😂

Burgulary tip: the hide-a-key is usually 2-3 feet from the front door. Also if theres a garden rock in an odd place near the front door, probably a spare key under it.

Holy shit… thank you for unlocking this fucking show from my brain!! How the hell did I forget about this?! Oh my god I’m laughing so god damn hard 😂 ty
