This is why we need to get blimps back in the tourism industry. I’m sure Tom will confirm they are much safer.

[Pikkonuos]

Attorney Tom making his own USCSB type episodes, I love it!!!

[luvondarox]

Dude
A collab between these two is a freaking _powerhouse._

[corsairsofnarshaddaa]

THe BI/Attorney Tom crossover partnership is THE BEST THING on YouTube right now. Please keep doing these!!

[nichfra]

The thing that shocks me is how tiny the liability insurance was, I've got more than 50 times that on my car and I don't transport almost 50 people with it.

[Xamry]

I can imagine Tom just defending a client fiercely.

Thanks for all you do!

[althill]

Had my first jury duty on a civil case involving severe burns on a minor. I now understand why Tom is so passionate about his job.

[dfgiuy]

You know its serious when he is no jokes and straight to the point in the opening.

The selfless shame promotion is actually endearing to. You can tell when someone genuinely cares.

Keep at it Tom, from Australia. Am a volunteer firefighter and I know my family would be left behind. Makes it even more important to not get hurt out there. Certainly one thing you of all people have shown me with your channel!

[KellAnderson]

Much better delivery, Tom. Felt far more natural, more like you were giving a speech to a jury than reading off a teleprompter!

Keep up the great work and keep up the practice!

[PaulJohnson-owmq]

I was always taught that you are responsible for your wake. And if your wake damages something or kills someone your ass is grass. So, I get the suing Lake George Steamboat Company.

[jordansean]

I absolutely love that you teamed up with Brick Immortar. I almost want to see a React vid to his other documentaries ❤

[EShirako]

"...Not Defnedant?" In the "Sue all relevant parties" bit starting around 10:20 or so, I notice Defendants A through D, but then the last guy in his office is a "Not Defnedant". It's just a sneaky spelling error, but I was unlucky enough to spot it and had to speak up! Good episode so far, though, thank you!

[LordSStorm]

I'd like to hear more about the New York State issue. I'm having a hard time understanding them not having a duty of care to do the job that the state hired the inspectors for.

[brandonb]

I’m so glad you teamed up with Sam! I found your channel from the collaboration and I binge watched all your old videos! Hope you bring back the Reddit reacts soon, I can’t get enough of those!

[nolanfoutz]

Not the collaboration i was expecting but it makes a lot of sense brick imortor is a great channel

[TheSourKraut]

Maybe I missed it, but it sounded like the "insurance company" got off scot free - with the premiums that were paid in good faith.
That seems ... wrong

[MinistryOfMagic_DoM]

I'm a huge fan of this style video.

[tommays]

We camped on the Lake George Islands every summer and when walking through town saw the Ethan Allen many times listing at the dock, when empty

The steam paddle wheel tour boats run at speed and put at enormous wakes regardless Of the boat traffic

[volvo]

Poor people... Just some seniors going out for a beautiful days sightseeing, and in 3 seconds the boat is underwater.


Btw i'm glad you covered the boat that caused the wake. I was expecting it to be a big boat speeding around, not a steamboat. Very interesting.

[alexandera]

Tom thanks for all of the work you and the team do!
