Can we do a DIY project underwater? (underwater basket weaving)

Want behind-the-scenes content? Check out the Aftershow for:
• Things that went wrong that Evan didn't even tell Katelyn
• Katelyn's extreme aversion to pruney fingers
• What body parts hurt the most afterward haha
• The stress of not knowing what is being captured
• How the camera died and we had to recreate footage
• Why this project was more difficult than expected
• WHY did we tackle such an expensive project when we can do cheaper ones?
• How long we’ve been actually working on this project
• The big worry we had after recording the first test that didn’t make it into the final video
• How all of the customization in the middle wasn't planned, but we're glad that we had some stuff to do that wasn't underwater
• The huge thing we realized after the first testing and how it changed the rest of the video

I love the idea of your neighbors peering over into your yard after hearing all the yelling and seeing absolutely nothing in the backyard since you're under the water.

I feel like you’ve just proven underwater basket weaving to be excellent college course material. It’s not at all about the basket or the weaving, it’s about the problem solving to be able to do the thing.

[cammie]

they could have just put their hands under the water, but no, they decided to dive, classic Evan and Katelyn AHAHAHAHAHAHHA

cheaper than an underwater basket weaving degree 😆 this was EPIC you guys crushed it!!!

[captnconfusion]

as a German viewer without knowledge of local idioms, i really appreciate the explanation of the phrase 😅 i genuinely would have thought it was because of the dry reeds

1:00 PLEASE HAVE THIS BE PLACED AS A BUSINESS WRITE OFF
9:07 not Evan and Katelyn flat out making fun of hallmark lol.

[DarkQueenHelba]

I want so much underwater content now. I fully EXPECT more crafts underwater now.

As someone who spent 3 years getting a bachelors in history, I appreciate you two finally fulfilling my original degree ambitions.

[jessicajones]

My dad always used the term “underwater basket weaving” to refer to useless (or almost useless) degrees, so you’re not the only ones who were confused when other people didn’t understand!

[Exayevie]

I'm going to be honest, I had never heard the phrase underwater basket weaving... yet I had exactly no questions when I saw Evan and Katelyn were doing it.

[brandis]

Their videos are the definition of “ Worth the wait”

[the.ripley.]

Your ad reads are always THE BEST, I swear they need to pay you guys triple for how good they are

[sambaker]

I'm surprised Katelyn was shocked that Even spent 7 grand on equipment.

[andrewkiefer]

This is exactly what I imagined the first time I heard about underwater basket weaving

[candacekrestel]

Is no one going to talk about their hallmark inspired raycon commercial??!???!!!?! I love how you guys always come up with creative commercial ideas. I always watch them all the way through. 😂

[charity]

Your videos are quite literally the definition of "trust the process"

[phroobin]

As someone who's SCUBA certified and has a degree in which underwater photography comes into play, I always get so happy seeing other people diving in videos so I was OVERJOYED to see you both taking on such a strange underwater task!

[ChanceNP]

I don’t know if “underwater basket weaving” is still a thing, but it definitely was in the 1980’s. My best friend was getting her Masters in Occupational Therapy and called me one day laughing because she literally had to take a basket weaving (terrestrial) class as part of the degree program. Basket weaving is way to improve hand/wrist/finger strength & dexterity.

[JoelRiggs]

The presentation of diplomas was flawless. You guys do a great job with all the video skits and editing shenanigans.

[fyrerose]

I'm looking forward to all the underwater content we're going to get in the future (⁠^⁠.^⁠)
