  • T_T YOU COULD HAVE USED COLORED WATER

    WTF

  • @DrossandGnosis Actually, we did make our own red food coloring, because they wouldn't let us use real wine. The sugar in the wine is bad for the gears, so we had to use water with food coloring.

  • For more info and testimonials about the QuakeGuardians that were used in this video.

    Go to the web and type in "QuakeGuardian" or call 866-255-3145

  • The QuakeGuardian was used to secure the wine racks and wine bottles in this video.

    Susan calls them wine leashes. As you see a 7.5 Earthquake or seismic event can destroy your wine collection, So get the QuakeGuardian's and get your wine secure from a Earth Quake.

  • Look how cute Andy is!
