  • - Oh, it's so much!

  • I may have made a terrible mistake,

  • but I look hot.

  • - Today, we're trying heels.

  • - We are gonna be going through the gauntlet.

  • The high heels gauntlet.

  • - We're going to dinner, we're going to bars,

  • and we're going dancing,

  • and were gonna wear heels the whole time.

  • - We're having ourselves a night.

  • - [Ned] What advice do you have for us?

  • - Don't.

  • - I love high heels.

  • I think they looks fabulous on women,

  • I think they look pretty damn good on men.

  • - It totally is hot, right?

  • - [Ned] Heels are like a fun, fancy thing

  • you get to do when you go out.

  • - I fucking hate heels.

  • I'm a shorter man,

  • and when girls wear heels around me,

  • it makes me shorter.

  • I shrink and they get taller

  • and I get shorter.

  • You pop on four extra inches, guess what.

  • I can't compete with that.

  • Alright, lets try on these torture devices.

  • - I feel like the best part is actually,

  • even before I go out,

  • and I'm like, "Yeah, I look good."`

  • - I'm wearing ankle boots.

  • They have a zipper along the side.

  • I actually think they're really cute.

  • I don't know that I can put this on.

  • I would have to sit.

  • I'm just trying to get home without a broken ankle.

  • Okay, not so bad.

  • - I would wear this.

  • - [Becky] Yeah - [Ariel] 100%

  • - [Becky] Have worn this.

  • - Not stilettos,

  • wide, wide base.

  • Who's that man

  • Walking down the street

  • With those delicate feet

  • It's Zach.

  • - For tonight, I wanted to show off a lot of my foot.

  • My fiance painted my toe nails.

  • I have chosen a little black strappy heel.

  • I've never had a buckle so tiny.

  • Three inches tall.

  • Aww! You can only see four of my toes.

  • Why did I paint all 10 of my toes,

  • if you can only see about seven.

  • - I would wear this to an eighth grade dance.

  • - [Keith] I feel pretty fucking hot.

  • - When we did the drag video,

  • I had on boot heels.

  • That doesn't count.

  • So tonight, I'm gonna wear stilettos

  • for the first time.

  • - I get platforms or wedges.

  • There is nothing else.

  • - Okay.

  • Keith,

  • would you be a dear

  • and give me a shoulder to...

  • - Of course.

  • - Yes, thank you.

  • (chuckling) Oh.

  • - I got you.

  • - This is Ned's heel.

  • A four inch, silver sandal,

  • that looks...

  • - It looks like it came straight out of my closet

  • 10 years ago.

  • - But does it make my butt look good?

  • If Ariel does decide to wear heels,

  • I set a timer.

  • Three hours later...

  • - I either have to sit down,

  • or I have to go home.

  • - I don't think Ned's gonna last more than an hour.

  • - Oh man, I don't like Christmas,

  • but I do like unwrapping stilettos.

  • High heels for me, are just a part of fashion.

  • My heels for tonight,

  • are actually called dagger pumps

  • because the stiletto is so tall,

  • they'll mother fucking kill you.

  • Yeah, I can't even stand on my toes as high as these.

  • Oh shit.

  • Maybe this is a mistake.

  • Ow!

  • - That's upsetting.

  • - I don't think I've ever seen a shoe that big.

  • - This is Lady Gaga.

  • - Where would I see these?

  • I'd see these in a show.

  • Where would I wear these?

  • I wouldn't.

  • - What do you think is gonna happen?

  • They're fucking daggers.

  • (dance music)

  • - Bring band-aids.

  • - Bring flats.

  • - Instead of tapping out,

  • we're going to be flatting out,

  • and that's when you decide to put on your flats.

  • - Eugene, he's already started to damage the apartment.

  • - Wonderful night. - The dagger strikes!

  • Let's fuck tonight up.

  • (hip-hop music)

  • - Mm mm.

  • - [Eugene] We leave my house,

  • and immediately, I realize

  • that walking is nearly impossible.

  • - [Zach] Even just in getting from Eugene's house

  • to the restaurant, a lot of us are getting cranky already.

  • Ned is just, like, the hangriest I've ever seen him.

  • - I'm getting very impatient, very quickly.

  • - We actually get out, and I'm like,

  • this is not practical.

  • - [Zach] First we go to dinner.

  • - Dinner is sitting.

  • Sitting's great.

  • - [Eugene] We're out at dinner, we're having fun,

  • Ned got his food.

  • You got, fucking, two entrees?

  • - I was hungry!

  • You can't tell me what to eat

  • when I'm wearing heels.

  • - This is not the worst yet,

  • but it's only been a few minutes.

  • - The worst part of wearing heels,

  • is actually walking in between places.

  • - There's no seats while you're walking down a sidewalk,

  • and our first bar, super close, right?

  • Just had to cross the street.

  • It was like, maybe, half a block.

  • It took us nine minutes to get there.

  • - That's how far away it was?!

  • - It's literally across the street.

  • - [Keith] I mean, it's basically like

  • watching toddlers on ice skates, right?

  • We get to this steep incline,

  • where the sidewalk goes to the road,

  • and it's just so steep.

  • Who designs these fucking sidewalks?!

  • - [Zach] There's a lot of uneven terrain, but

  • we're at the first bar.

  • Time to partay.

  • - The best thing is when you walk in,

  • for the first 10 minutes.

  • You feel incredible, you feel like you look incredible.

  • - As much as this hurt,

  • I recognized that when I stood in those six inch stilettos,

  • I looked fucking hot as shit.

  • - But, I'm getting hit on like crazy.

  • I'm so much taller than normal.

  • - Me too. - So are you.

  • - [Keith] It was fun though,

  • I loved the attention.

  • - [Ariel] It's a great 10 to 15 minutes.

  • - I don't think I'm gonna last the whole night,

  • so I'm doing my dancing now.

  • - And very soon, we were all sat at a table.

  • Ned linked both of his heels on the stool

  • and then as he stood up to leave.

  • - My momentum's going forward,

  • but my heels are stuck on the stool,

  • and I just go, "See ya!"

  • Man down!

  • Man down.

  • - He fucking face planted.

  • Like, bam!

  • It was hilarious.

  • - But, the bartender is, like, holding my drinks back,

  • thinking that I need to be cut off.

  • Nope, not wasted,

  • just wearing heels.

  • - We are now done with the first bar,

  • we are now heading to the second bar.

  • - Ariel is doing something for me,

  • which I always do for her.

  • - You know, my biggest nuisance

  • has always been that we aren't walking fast enough.

  • - Your biggest, what?

  • - Nuisance.

  • You've never walked this slow.

  • - I haven't.

  • - I look good, I feel good,

  • I'm taller.

  • - [Ariel] Zach's shoes are the best,

  • 'cause you have a protective layer,

  • all enclosed.

  • - [Becky] Ned and Kieth, however,

  • are at risk for being stepped on

  • because their toes are exposed

  • and they're low to the ground.

  • - Somebody bumped into me

  • and stepped on my toe.

  • Ow!

  • God!

  • He said, "Welcome to the real world."

  • Oh!

  • - [Zach] We get to the next bar.

  • I'm looking hot,

  • and my friends are fucking sitting down.

  • - I just want to go home now.

  • 25 minutes sitting, I move to dancing.

  • That's my game.

  • - The heels are not hurting me yet,

  • but I'm forward thinking man,

  • I'm responsible.

  • So, I'm gon' get drunk.

  • - When you drink, it distracts you from the pain.

  • - There's a pool table,

  • and if anybody knows anything about pool,

  • it's all about bending over and sticking out that tush.

  • Pop that booty.

  • And, when you've got heels,

  • that tush has got the push.

  • The drinks are hitting,

  • and that means it's time to dance.

  • - Dancing usually happens towards the end of the night.

  • - It's fun to dance on the floor.

  • - Eugene starts, not only dancing,

  • but getting down harder than I've ever seen a man

  • get down, in my life.

  • - There's a weird feeling

  • that in the heels, I wanted to impress people more,

  • so when I was challenged to dance,

  • I mother fucking danced.

  • - [Zach] He's wearing literal daggers...

  • - And it did not feel good.

  • - What is happening?!

  • - I'm taking the tiniest little steps

  • I've ever taken in my life.

  • - [Becky] Are you looking at the ground?

  • - Honestly, the wort thing

  • about wearing heels out for a long time

  • is feeling like a burden,

  • and so I try to grit my teeth and bare it,

  • which mean that my toes bleed.

  • - [Zach] I turn around, and half of the group is gone.

  • Keith and Ned are dying.

  • - My feet hurt!

  • I'm done with this!

  • I do outside, I stand by a dumpster,

  • and I take off my heels.

  • Oh man.

  • (chuckling) Ho ho ho ho ho!

  • Oh, that feels so good.

  • - [Zach] The look on his face was just pure bliss.

  • - Just fuck those things, they hurt.

  • - At this point, I've fallen over,

  • I've gotten stepped on,

  • I've gotten cat called, and

  • honestly, my night is over.

  • I don't even care if I don't have flip flops!

  • Oh my God, it feels so good!

  • - [Keith] Your feet are on the dirty ground.

  • - Oh, my feet are on the dirty ground, but I don't care!

  • My toes were like, "Ahh!"

  • - It's like all your stress is gone,

  • except, my feet still hurt!

  • - We should grab those shoes, though,

  • they were expensive.

  • - The final walk we had to make

  • was between the third and fourth bar

  • after Kieth and Ned leave.

  • Alright, only the hot ones are left.

  • Let's do this!

  • It's just not even funny anymore.

  • Eugene, at this point, is dying.

  • - I wanted to take my stiletto off,

  • and stab myself repeatedly in the brain.

  • Ah fuck.

  • Every single person and surface around me

  • is just something that can stabilize me from falling over.

  • You're really hot.

  • - They're too high.

  • - [Zach] Mine are much more sensible.

  • - Let me see, let me see.

  • Oh my God, I love what you're wearing!

  • It looks so comfortable.

  • - I almost got hit by a car.

  • That was super chill.

  • My friends won't wait for me!

  • Car, please!

  • Fucking people.

  • We get to the last bar,

  • I'm dancing, but

  • we're not having fun anymore.

  • The heels take a physical toll,

  • and the physical toll takes a mental toll.

  • - [Eugene] Every inch of my being was screaming,

  • "Get out of these heels!"

  • - It is clear to me at this point

  • that Eugene might be doing severe

  • and permanent damage to his feet.

  • - I didn't take it off,

  • because I was gonna last through the night,

  • so that my sisters and my mom would be proud.

  • - You ready to tap out?

  • - Flat out, tap out, I'm done!

  • - Flat out, tap out!

  • Flat out, tap out!

  • - Six inches is asking a lot of someone's feet.

  • - The heels come off,

  • and then we get to walk home barefoot.

  • I am done!

  • - Normally, I am carrying my friends home

  • who take off their heels.

  • Tonight, Zach carried me home.

  • - I really understand why someone in heels

  • is done with partying after two or three bars.

  • - It's just another question of fashion versus function.

  • Do you value looking super crazy sexy?

  • - I actually kind of liked it.

  • I liked being a little taller.

  • It added confidence.

  • - Or do you also value having a comfortable night out.

  • - My wife has a timer for a reason.

  • I had a timer tonight too.

  • - [Eugene] I think most people are

  • somewhere within that spectrum

  • and it's your choice to decide where you want to be.

  • - The metaphor is, "You won't understand

  • "until you walk a mile in their shoes,"

  • it's right.

  • - Thanks for watching.

  • We're the Try Guys,

  • and we have a brand new show called Squad Wars.

  • It's on YouTube Red, so it's basically Try Guys

  • with celebrities and more explosions.

  • - You get it for 30 days for free

  • if you wait 'til March,

  • you can watch the whole thing and pay nothing!

  • Stop watching this video and watch that video!

  • Get out of here!

  • (exciting music)

  • - I woke up this morning with an

  • insane amount of pain,

  • so, when I looked down,

  • my right foot is still fucking bleeding,

  • really fucking awful.

  • Just the worst.

  • But, I look hot.

- Oh, it's so much!
