[benhardy]

You really did that to us with the “Kickstarter link”.

[Jack-fdcx]

if anyone ever wondered why engineers aren't actors, here is your answer lol still love watching every vid tho

[kaalapaani]

The ones who clicked the link:

"We've Been Tricked, We've Been Backstabbed and We've Been Quite Possibly, Bamboozled"

[outre]

Me after clicking the Kickstarter link:
“My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.”

[averagepotato]

I can't believe you Rick rolled me... this is the first time I've fallen for a Rick roll in almost 2 years

[sagarsondarva]

He can fit into any costumes like, captain America, Dr. Strange, star lord, etc., Now he looks like Aslan from Narnia...

[jekdawg]

Airport security probably wont like these shoes

[TheTechieScientist]

It's just a matter of time before they say :
*We made an Iron Man suit that automatically suits up*

[addisonhall]

James: *apparently doesn't have laced shoes*

James when talking about Vessi: "I love wearing these while I'm one wheeling!"

[DTeK]

10:33 Marty : "Power Laces !! alright !!"

[joshclarke]

I watched the entire “Kickstarter” video out of sheer respect

[splashfire]

Me: "opens the link"
After opening that :"I didn't expected that from you James😆😆"

[nickpk]

James : *steps on rock*
Shoe : explodes

[luisfernandoverde]

As a grown-ass teenager, almost in my 20's now, who doesn't know how to properly tie his own shoelaces, I was genuinely excited for this, cannot believe that I fell for the oldest trick in the book

[Inferno-vszt]

Me clicking the link:

You were the chosen one. It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. You were to bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness. You were my brother James. I loved you!!!

[aynlani]

I've been watching this channel from 5 years and I know that you have grown this channel from nothing, you keep doing this and you'll be the best in no time! Keep it up!

[MrMandofortnite]

Imagine they put all of this work into this and had the wrong shoe size.

[BlueMonarch]

Hacksmith spent to much time in engineering that he didn’t learn how to tie his shoes lol

[imapigeon]

Hacksmith: build the first ever lightsaber
Also hacksmith : doesn’t know how to tie his shoes

[almondmilk]

James: (legit made a real lightsaber)
Also James: (can't tie his own shoes)
