[CrayzMario64]

I'm your host, my name is Ben Bailey. :L

Hey Ben. c:

Hi. :D

Lovely.

[TheSdtn]

"this is an experience" "holy mackerel" you're funny

[RickD360]

@TheSdtn

Thanks for leaving a comment!

[eternalpengel87]

Something about Ben Baileys rules make me think "PREPARE YOURSELF!"

[RoshWilliams]

awesome :D 

[Poseidon666ish]

"well this is an experience!" LOL!

[animeruler408]

i rarely get any answer right in cash cab only once did i get more right then wrong and that was a fluke

[blindmentality]

The FISH philosophy...nice! Good job Rick! ^_^ I would be happy about it too! :D

[pgdarth95]

You so lucky!!!!

I wish that would happen to me!

[SuperAva101]

hey rick this is the lady from verizion, just checked out your video and it was hilarious!

good job!

[RickD360]

@SuperAva101 -- thanks for viewing my video ... and helping me switch my calling plan!  :-)

[MelvinWren]

i cant believe there was a question about edward 40 hands

[Fernade10]

Ive heard that they dont give you the money right on the spot. They mail it to you. Is this true??

[Whatsausername55]

@Fernade10 Yup, it's fake money, they mail you the check.

[SandpiperN121PP]

That is the last thing I would do... get out of a taxi cab in the middle of New York shouting this is awesome... $800.00!

[RickD360]

@SandpiperN121PP:

Dude ... I was standing on one of the busiest streets in Manhattan with a camera crew rolling tape in full view. If someone did do a grab, I'd be famous. I wish they had. Have you ever even BEEN to the City? It's the safest big city in the USA.

[rolls eyes]

[davnert]

The guy forgot his briefcase...

[foxatheart111]

@davnert why would he even need it if he could buy a new one with his $800? but then again there may have been stuff like papers from work...XD

[rmsparklechick]

still my favorite Cash Cab video on YouTube! : )

[RickD360]

@rmsparklechick:

And ur still my favorite commenter.  :)

[Swoon4Josh]

You said "Ben Bailey picks up some regular taxi fares between tapings for extra cash"...it would suck to recognize him then find out it's just a regular cab ride lol. I'm back, a year after appreciating your humor, and you've "still got it". I love your comments lol.

[RickD360]

@Swoon4Josh

Ummm ... Ben Bailey does NOT ever drive a taxi for real (to my knowledge). I was "joshing" with you. Glad you still like the video. Thanks!

[Swoon4Josh]

oh lol duh lol. Love your "joshing" play-on-words. That's an expression we use at the Josh Groban fan club.

(my delete below was a double post, not "censoring myself" lol)

[LILMANSON14]

Man you were too funny..Congrats on your winnings..=)

[rmsparklechick]

you're adorable! congratulations!

[dulcechristo]

great job, bro

[izzigogo]

Fantastic!!!!

[nEWwORLDhOARDER]

Do you sign a release form BEFORE the shoot? People who suck might not want their ignorance to be nationally broadcast after the fact.

[RickD360]

"What do you say? Do you want to play?!" If you agree to play the game, the taping stops momentarily for the contestant to sign a release, then -- away we go!

[BenBeanin]

Right on Rick way to go!!!!

[starly396]

Does Discovery give you the footage?

[dudeustupid]

thats awesome

[RickD360]

thanks for the comment!

[prankster136]

you look like coach k

[RickD360]

coach k must be one handsome dude.

[the430movie]

Rick!!!!! You gotta love a risk taker! Winner takes all!!!!! Yeah Baby!!!!

[RickD360]

"Yay Capitalism!"

[the430movie]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! Right now i need the show. As long as the questions are simple.

[kristiegirl33]

my husband & i love cash cab. :)

[RickD360]

Not as much as "Cash Cab" loves you and your husband!

[undertaker7800]

do you have to sign any papers when you get on the cab?

[MeowthTV]

wow congrats on getting on the show!

[bigdud12345]

it must be crazy to see urself on tv

[fattymagee1]

dude like what were you thinking right when u saw the lights on the ceiling go on.

[biggoz1]

that was great!!!

[RickD360]

Thanks for commenting!!!!

[Bhood1000]

How long is it before the cash cab starts rolling Rick?? how long does it take for him to tell you everything?

[Asamof]

haha wow, lucky

[camper2189]

so what really happens when the cameras are off that us viewers dont get to see???? thanks!

[RickD360]

I could tell you, but ... you know the rest ...

[RickD360]

Ben Bailey picks up some regular taxi fares between tapings for extra cash. It's rough out there these days, I tell ya, it's rough!

[ilovejapan888]

dude i heard its fake is it really?

[RickD360]

It's as real and as serious as a heart attack. :-O

[EvanQuinn07]

I wanna know if the cash Ben gives you is real.....someone said they pay you by check and you have to wait about a month for it......

[RickD360]

I suppose that person also told you there is no Easter Bunny and the 1969 moon landing was staged in a studio in Los Angeles?? HAH!

[RickD360]

Seriously, Kapt, I've heard of cars that were equipped with "all the bells and whistles," but that was the first time I sat in a vehicle that really had all the bells and whistles!

Thanks for commenting and don't forget to tell all your friends!

[KaptKan1]

"Well, this is an experience..." LOL!!! That was cool, Rick.

[RickD360]

Thanks, mike, I think you're "super," too!

[1supermike1000]

Wow you're good

[nycgirl94]

wow soo is it really unexpected or is there a catch?

love the show by the way :)

[RickD360]

Totally unexpected. There is no "catch." It's the "Cash Cab," not the "Catch Cab."

[nycgirl94]

haha k thanx

[slimeball3000]

u left your notebook

[burnmetodeath]

Wow! You were on the cash cab?!

[RickD360]

Ummm ... yes. The youtube video seems to prove that ... don't you think?

[burnmetodeath]

Good point!

[ladysky61]

OMG! That guy is hilarious!

[RickD360]

Thanks, but Ben Bailey makes it easy to play off his wit.

[RickD360]

Ummm ... didn't you ever hear of someone leaving something behind in a cab???

Thanks for commenting!

[Back0Pack]

Didnt you have a clipboard or something when you got in? But when you were walking away with the money you didnt have it. Sup wit that??

[Celly222]

Nice job!!!

But werent you paranoid in NYC, at night, yelling out how much money you have and waving in the air? lol. ;)

[RickD360]

You're right, but I had so much adrenaline pumping, I didn't care at the time!

Thanks for commenting.

[Swoon4Josh]

Hey I saw you again, the other day. You seemed like "an old friend", since we chatted here, 5 mos. ago  lol.

[decenttv]

awesome game show

[blurredlife07]

thats the 1st time i've heard Ben say...""so here's the situation" instead of sayin the normal...."so heres the deal" ....ha just me??

[girlyanimeboy]

I think you should give your kid that 100 for the beer question =p

[RickD360]

I think I put him through college so he could learn about beer, so we're even. :-)

[Dark417]

Good job! I wish I lived in NY so I could have a chance at this game show! :D

[ItzDiPzBaby]

wow this guy reminds me of steven carell

[Lostfeaion]

He reminds me more of Michael Emerson ^^

[rocker12347]

he reminds me of robert deniro

[RickD360]

You talkin' to me?

[rocker12347]

if your the cab driver

[RickD360]

Yeah, "Benjamin Linus," I get that one a lot.

[CmanCorporations]

"pretedning to wield a fictional star wars weapon 900 million times..."

lol i believe it is 9 million.

[theburnerboy]

No, 900 million is actually more accurate...if everyone in the world with internet access managed to watch the film just once, it would be even more than that...

Nice try though, LOL.

[jakeditz50]

dude i live in seattle haha

[Swoon4Josh]

I loved the "Holy Mackarel" quick wit. I get a kick out of it when people use common phrases in a way that actually applies lol.

[RickD360]

Thanks.

Hey, when ya got it, ya got it. :-)

[HELLZZARMY]

dude congrats but, didn't you have a black notebook when you got in the cab. did you leave by mistake because of all the excitement. curious viewers want to know...OSU!!! (KARATE EXPRESSION)

[RickD360]

Yeah, that's it.

[guy2008rules]

Rick,

what is the record date and the

release date on this one???

[GeOhDe001]

Yes id like to know. There is no way they can carry that much money in a cab in NY city. Ben would get robbed almost every 10 minutes. Ah the magic of video Editing. lol

[RickD360]

I dunno, have you ever seen Ben Bailey in person? He's a pretty big dude. I wouldn't mess with him!

[nEWwORLDhOARDER]

6'6"

[Thunderstruck680]

frikin awsome dude! can i ask wat else happens thats not shown? is the money given at the end fake? and do u gota walk away and give it bak/? do they tax deduct ur winnigs? if so, by how much? anything else? im very curious lol

[RickD360]

The cash is mine to keep with no withholding, but I got a tax form at the end of the year and paid income tax. How much is none of your business!

[gameshowguy2000]

Good job making it to the show..I'm proud you made it to your destination AND nailed the Video Bonus!

[RickD360]

Thanks! About the video bonus, in my mind, I reasoned it out INcorrectly, but I gave the right answer, so I guess that's what counts.

[AntFunny57]

First of all, Congrats!! I like to know, do they frisk you before you get in the cash cab, and watch what you going to say, or any questions like that they tell you??

And how about the cameraman when you stepped out, where did he come from, it's like they came out of nowhere?? LOL!

Please fill us in thank you.

[RickD360]

> do they frisk you before you get in the

> cash cab?

No.

> ... [are you told to] watch what you ...

> say, or [given any of the] questions ...??

Other than the quiz questions, "Cash Cab" is entirely unscripted. I had no advance idea what the questions would be.

> And how about the cameraman when you

> stepped out, where did he come from, it's

> like they came out of nowhere??

I guess the crew follows us to the destination and gets out quick to set-up for the shot.

[AntFunny57]

Okay sorry I explan wrong, um

I don't mean the quiz questions they give you, I mean what they tell you before the game starts what we don't see on the air??

[RickD360]

They told me, "Be yourself and have fun. Good luck!"

[AntFunny57]

Wow! Here I'm thinking it's much more then that...Thank you for the info...Thumbs up!

[QuinnMurphyProd]

Good job on making it on the show and winning the cash.

[RickD360]

Thanks and thanks for commenting.
