15 Hours in Target!

[remmyist]

ma,ma, ma, ma, mah--------

[scratchp88]

This was the first vlogbrothers video I watched. I was very confused. Two years later, it still hold a special place in my heart!

[Kaaxe]

15 hourse is NOT enough time to buy a hotdog >: (

[KatieM7fan3]

So by hour 13 you were defying the laws of physics. Thats perfectly normal.

[foodforthoughtFEAST]

Dude, you realize that you could have just got two ICEEs and put those in the blender...right?

[L1LTERRA]

My school library has "The Book Thief". Well I say has, it HAD "The Book Thief". I think he struck again.

[ItssssGabby]

You were at Target for FIFTEEN hours and you couldn't get a hotdog....

[RedlineRevenant]

Is it just me, or is NO ONE in that Target... I work at a fairly large one (a Super Target) and I have to say, that's what I crave at work.

[WhatsernameIsTheName]

"the target cafe closed before i could get a hot dog, so we had to do it at home"

you were there for 15 HOURS, hank.

[isingfashion]

This could quite possibly be one of my favorite videos of all time.

[skelly5195]

Hank ever tell us girls how much fat is in our candy ^_^

[ILoveedYouPiggy]

as a Target employee... NOTHING is worse than finding food in the non food sections. We have to defect all those items and put them in special bags and throw it away. I feel your pain.

[Plottoberry]

My respect for you is increased and renewed, Hank.

[mthsbandrocks]

I would have just stayed in that chair and read all of those books he picked up for the 15 hours.

[themanwithacam]

who filmed you at 1:57?

[mthsbandrocks]

@themanwithacam I think it was The Katherine because Hank said that she had come to join him.

[BlueSkyDaisukiAyumi]

1:46 is my favourite part :)

[Elphie021]

I never noticed he was reading WGWG first :D

[nerdfighteria]

Good find.

Nice, you are officially done with all of the truly clue-like clues. Tomorrow's final is much different, very interactive, etc.

Now just tweet @nerdfighteria - did you buy anything other than the food you blenderized when you were in Target for all of those hours?

[Erin91225]

Your Targets have their own restaurants? Wooaahhhh

[ItsDaniYellElo]

i wish my targets looked this fun :/

[HelexHere]

HANK. YOU. WERE. IN. TARGET. FOR. FIFTEEN HOURS! THAT IS ENOUGH TIME TO GET A HOTDOG FROM THE RESTAURANT!!! DO YOU MEAN YOU DID NOT EAT THAT ENTIRE TIME?!

[lookingformybluebox]

Obviously, the Missoula Target is way less prone to kicking people who stay there for 15 hours than the Great Falls Target is. :P That, or they just weren't paying much attention to the nerdy guy running through the aisles...

[Lightlybow]

Waitwaitwait. HANK LISTENS TO HARVEY DANGER?!

[bluebutterflyofdoom]

I used to work at Target. I sympathsize... Although I could easily spend two hours playing around in there. I think if I encountered a guest (we weren't allowed to call you "customers") like you, Hank, as long as you weren't making a mess you would have made my shift much more fun just for the laughter. :) And thank you for the yogurt call out. The jello pudding is also perishable. Why do people do that?

[Jezza575]

lol I want that baclava :D

[Wayums]

Flying Hank made me LOL

[TheTheaJoy]

I somehow feel fifteen hours in Walmart would be more entertaining, simply because of the people watching opportunities.

[xxTeamxHarryxx]

You couldn't get a hot dog before Target closed. Hank, you were in there for 15 hours!!!!!!

[purplevelvetelaphant]

This was my first vlogbrothers video, to say the least i was confused but very intrigued. Two years later, i am still a bit confused but i am always intrigued.

[annathe3rd]

I think there should be a game show competition like this.

[jmar4life]

Now i know how it feels to be inside a store open and close. I hope i dont get the same fate.

[BustedMusicCMJ]

15 hours inside target would be amazing!!! haha

[SnowingWolfGirl]

I love baclava! Eating it, of course XD

[wintermoons1215]

...They have a booze isle in Target?!? Where is this Target? There is no such booze isle in any Target I've ever been to!

[dantesinfernal0]

@wintermoons1215 It depends on the laws of your state and how they give out liquor licenses.  There's typically a limit on the number of licenses given out in any area, and in many cases they've been held by the stores that have them for a looooooong time.

[tsunayoshisawada]

How were you not kicked out?

[MusicIsHappiness159]

@tsunayoshisawada @Qwillk Its Hank Green

[9hatasgonnahate9]

1:09 highlight of my life

[crazipaperclip]

i'm fairly certain i would have just read the whole time. problem solved.

[moviemoviemadness]

hey did john ever go on the frog hopper?

[Pinee4]

..is that flight of the bumblebee?

[cardichick]

at 2:46 did anyone else think of singamajigs?

[oh9ah6]

song?

[TheDannyDarka]

@oh9ah6 Flight of the Bumblebee on Piano

[ciprianoms]

I've stayed in a Target for 15 hours, because I worked there. I can't imagine being there for that long and not getting paid for it.

[xxjanie182]

Hour 6 is my favorite by far.

[rosephoeniix]

this makes me happy. Hank (and John) I am so glad I found you

dftba

[NomNomNomNomYUM]

I love Flight of the Bumblebee :3

[pbjellybeanful]

"There's a lot of people in this Target, and they...they don't think I'm normal." haha

*Hank's under hand dryer*

*dude walks in*

*waves*

*continues being under hand dryer* Hank, you're too awesome.

[Qwillk]

How. HOW did you not get kicked out?

[ThoughtsonFire1013]

@Qwillk cause he's awesome. Doy.

[singingeliza91]

This is my Target! Yay for Missoula and Hank!

[Ijustsawahippogriff]

I am really surprised Hank was not arrested for loitering.

[emurqq]

@Ijustsawahippogriff You shouldn't be. I would at a Target and not even one person would care if someone was there for 15 hours. not even one.

[tss6295]

every time i've been to target since watching this video, i've wanted to do this. :)

[plushalligator]

@Lottarandomness yeah its called froghoppin' with gatsby

[plushalligator]

oh god! for 2 extra seconds???? thats torture! i think this is extreme. entertaining, but extreme

[CascataAriana]

Does anyone else note that, in the frog hopper punishment, John does not say he loves Hank?

[bellacullen98a]

You have... Cafes inTarget...? Your Targets look freaking awesome

[Lottarandomness]

Did John complete the Froghopper-punishment? I couldn't find the video anywhere :((

[ellammusic]

catching fire and eragon :')

[samaraisnt]

That's the worst punishment ever...

[StrawBerriJuice]

Whats Harvey Danger??

[fobitbswo]

@StrawBerriJuice HD High Definition

[Thisismyusername1010]

If I were you, I would have just stayed by the books. I've spent at least an hour on several occasions reading the books in my local Shopko while my family buys things and wonders where I am. :)

[cupcakes1348]

you must have very nice target employees. A few months ago my friends and i got kicked out just for playing hide and seek.

[hufflepuffbadgers]

the music really added to the 'descending into madness' theme

[theoffkeydiva]

How the HELL did you stay there for 15 hours and NOT get kicked out!

[musechick101]

Oh. My. God. Hank was so stir-crazy from target that HE TURNED INTO FRED...

[swordfish1929]

at least in ikea you can find somewhere to sleep

[commenter2498]

this is forever one of my favourite videos.

[davorunner]

Hour twelve: If that's what doing that reduces a person to, then I don't think it should be legal!

[plantlife1212]

ladies and gentalmen the vlogbrothers present decent into madness

[CakeBeneathTheIcing]

I don't understand, why do the vlog brothers do punishments? Is it just for funzies?

[AARFantastical]

@CakeBeneathTheIcing they have a rule to not go over 4 mins in their videos (there are some special exceptions) but if they do go over - they are PUNISHED mwahahahahaa

[rawrrar3]

oh my freaking gosh this video has been out for like 2 years why is this the first time im seeing it :O!!!!

[JessicaSezz]

A bit surprised that you didn't get kicked out... And I wouldn't put my face under a had-dryer anymore if I were you because those things are SUPER GERMY. It's gross. Funny video though ;)

[RandomnessSHQ]

Note to self: never buy cookware from a target Hank's been in.

[michigansflowergirl]

Just realised how much worse this could have been. We could have made him do for even longer on black friday with all the crazies!

[TammiBloo]

1:18

Store employee: Umm excuse me boss, but there is a strange man in a dark ski mask over in that aisle talking to himself and it appears that he's been here for about 10 hours straight.

Boss: O.e ...

[ninjasquid1]

1:42 KEROPPI BACKPACK!!!!!!!!

[tacoismykitty]

these punishments made me watch all your videos up to this point

[dreamcutie32]

The dude who walked in on you must have been so creeped out and confused. Especially when you waved at him.

[unholychunk]

booze in a department store. damn usa, you got it good, well that one thing at least

[Wrash16]

Hour Seven was the best one!!!

[ChelsieOliviaa]

Fred impersonation ftw.

[KashMoneh0319]

i should walk to target (its like two minutes) and just spend the day there

[jack154790]

i can't find the froghopper punishment !!!!!

[g2theIrishPianist]

@jack154790 It's "Froghopping with Gatsby"; it's about three videos after this one.

[ssbrwl]

Hour 13 and 15 were my favorite.

And @madeleinlily0 , just so you know, 285 people agree with you and you made me laugh just as hard as anything in the video.

[madeleinelily0]

@ssbrwl Haha, cheers! 

[TheBeautyperl]

Youre freakin craaazzyyy lol

[sexzymustache]

I just realized that there is no Hour 7 o.0

[FirstmateRouge]

As a person who works in the Target Cafe, I'm very glad you waited until you got home.

[synchrogirl978]

Why do I have a feeling this would be a great birthday party then leading into a sleepover idea... Because, it is!!! I'll bring like three friends and spend 15 hours with them, in a target. Because. I. Can. /because Hank and John are kinda my role models... But y'know.

[isortaforgot]

@synchrogirl978

Protip: Walmart will kick you out for alot of stuff, target will let you stay as long as you look decently sane, but kroger (if you have those) will even let you walk around in a swimsuit and nothing else :) Tons of fun getting strange looks from people

[synchrogirl978]

@isortaforgot I've never heard of Kroger but that's freakin' AWESOME, especially because I have some crazy looking show suits :)

[MsSkodge]

Hank makes a better Fred than Fred.

[BIBIisBOREDXD]

0:17 Twilight? WHY?!

[BeautifullyTragicxx]

Nearly two years ago, this was my first Vlogbrothers video. I am now a full-fleged nerdfighter. Thank you Target

[Ijustsawahippogriff]

Quick question. Are there Zellers' in America?

[hawkwardish]

That awkward moment when you show this video to your friend and you think it's absolutely hilarious but they find it stupid.

[KatMayday2012]

What was in the blender?

[KDummzer]

hank green: the new fred!

[IBeChelseaful]

this is so far my favorite vlogbrothers video.

[XthecadburykidX]

The little bit that's sped up in the middle... creased XD

"Oh my gosh you guys, i've been in Target for twelve FREAKING hours! Aha ha ha haaa, aha ha ha haaaaa!"

[BehindTheHarleyShop]

I know i've seen guys sit on their butts for hours and hours and hours just playing video games. So hank must not be big on video games cause that alone would have killed half the day.

[mybestfrendsafrog]

Ahahahaha I just play that bit with the harmonising bins over and over again

[laughalltheway1]

anyone else notice how it changed from hour six to hour eight?

[redbarron718]

I tried this and beat half of LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean wii game.

[OhioStateBuckeye2014]

"Nice warm yogurt in the workout section...nice job consumer"

My thoughts exactly.

You know Target has to throw away anything they find that is supposed to be fridged? Think about that the next time you're too lazy to put something you don't want away.

[asmirkisstillasmile]

WHERES 7?

[GlitterLickker]

lol my favv one!!

follow me on twitter??

@FeBubbles ... Thanks (:

[Epicpieman22]

It would be fun and scary to meat you

[IBeChelseaful]

heyy it's haaaaaaaaankk.

[JSanz22792]

I don't know how he stayed there for so long...I work there and avoid Target as if it were the plague on my off days! Hahaha!

[WordyGinger28]

he... he read the book thief... that's my favorite book ever.

[claircote4416]

This video is very fun.

[gratzi2716]

baklava

[1TheStuffChannel1]

It skipped 7...

[broadwaylolacocacola]

many ppl dont think im normal either............

[catiemomie]

OMG Hour Thirteen!!!!

[ItsMeEllenB]

I'm surprised he didnt get kicked out :)

[doiconfuseyou]

Delicious honey nutty balaclava.

[HRPuffinstacks]

AP would be all over this guy.

[Datelesswonders]

In nine hours he went from Wii Boxing to real boxing....with blankets as gloves.

[verboselie]

I love this video so much. lol! It never gets any less amusing!

[claircote4416]

This video is very fun.

[TheZavannahi]

best video ever

[coastykid95]

I had a root canal because of trauma, not my lack of dental hygiene...

[farlcoon]

baclava is a delicious pastry from turkey.

[madeleinelily0]

"The target cafe closed before I could get a hotdog" - YOU WERE THERE FOR 15 HOURS HANK!

[AstroChiLee1]

@madeleinelily0 but it closes sometimes before the rest of the store...

[Swackers90]

I can't wait until Target comes to Canada 2013, im so excited :D

[666bunnykiller]

hey its haaaaank :D that part makes me laugh

[AkemixMiyano]

lol look at it this way. he's not 21 and has to have ALL OF HIS TEETH PULLED OUT!! I DID!! NOT FUN!! now i'm toothless,single and easily bored.

[linkcharlietrumpet]

the links at the end don't work!! AH O_O

[totallyleafy]

The cafe closed before you could get a hot dog? YOU WERE THERE FOR 15 HOURS!

[BellatrixPlaysPiano]

The Flight of the Bumblebee! That song is so awesome! It decreases worldsuck every time someone merely thinks about it!

[Armedwithapen]

@SuperSporian. Ya, it was. Shes not like the yeti though, shes been seen.

[SuperSporian]

GUYS! IS IT JUST ME OR DID I SEE SOME OF THE KATHERINE?

[VolunteerNerdfighter]

I like that it's a punishment for John to tell Hank he loves him.

Siblings are great.

[whotaughtyou]

TARGET EDDIE MURPHY

[rejectgirl1]

i bet that target got alot more customers once he went there...

[MsRiverRose]

Man I got told off for using a video camera in Target and they made me leave. :(

[BarbaricBalloon]

Woo! Hunger games.

[harelquindemon]

why is this so amusing????? favorite vlogbrothers video!

[TheSpellingFairy]

I would KILL to be in that Target when you were on about Hour Seven.

You'd be like, "I have to stay in here for another eight hours."

And I'd be all, "I know, I watch your videos."

And then you'd be all, "Hey, wanna keep me company?"

And I'd be like "YES."

Or, at least that's how it goes in my head...

[hugokid1]

i would spend myself in the book ile and play xbox and ps3 games and cry of how long i have to stay there

[TheSpellingFairy]

@hugokid1 *aisle

[hugokid1]

@TheSpellingFairy sorry for my grammar mistake 

[TheSpellingFairy]

@hugokid1 It's all good in the 'hood.

[LilyTheAnnoyance]

I would've spend the whole fifteen hours in the video game aisle playing XBox demos.

And my neck would have been very sore when it was over.

[LilyTheAnnoyance]

I don't know why, but I couldn't stop laughing when you did the trash can choir. I have no idea why that is so freaking hilarious.

[lilbil269]

WHYY AM I HEEEERRREE?!?!!??? i freakin love that voice

[artchic98]

did you even buy anything!



[SuperPandahz]

Did you.... Did you really touch that twilight book?
