The look on the eel's face cracked me up. They're so chill like, "Oh hi Mark..." *POW!!*

[capybaracasino]

These guys are inhumanly tough, they experienced so much thing’s like jeez

[BBRWild]

Mark is a very brave man ! Of course Coyote too

12:40 the Eel is extremely proud of the job it did.

"Do not attempt to recreate" I don't think the average person has access to an electric eel.

Mark: *gets shocked*
Mario: Are you okay Mark?
Coyote: Describe the pain

[skytrain]

Mark: Touches Eel.
Eel: "I'll have to charge him for that."

12:25 even the eel sitting down with him like "you good bro?" Lol

[NightDocs]

I genuinely worry about you guys. The pressure to one up the craziest stuff you’ve done with ever increasing popularity is gonna get you guys killed

[rajatkaranrajput]

Mark - One shock can take down even a horse.
Him - I'ma stick my hand in.

[Blight]

Coyote must’ve been like “I wish that was me” cuz that man just loves getting hurt my animals.

[roseandmaple]

1:23 he looks so proud of himself like :]

[krazykorean]

what's freaky is that the eel essentially was like 'nah man' and sent smaller shocks to dissuade Mark (probably thought he was a predator) but when he got to close he just let him have it. this really shows off how this animal was like i'm warning you dawg don't do it.

12:25 the eel is like "are u ok? u shouldn't have touched me bro."

[staychrispy]

Mark: That hurt.
Coyote: You okay?

The tables have turned. 🤣

[britneyalyssa]

The eel at 12:26 looking at him like "Bruh it wasnt that bad 🙄."

[trevorthai]

Imagine if Coyote was holding the camera.

“I’m Mark Vinns, and I’m about to enter the shock zone with an electric eel.”
Mark: “OWWW”
Coyote: “I know you’re suffering but could you describe the pain?”

[brentmartin]

camera man: are you ok Mark?
Coyote: The tables have turned.

[johnmathis]

Mark: *touches eel*
Eel: “…and I took that personally”
