- Hi we're Joel and Lia.

- And this video is about the time

that we got kicked out of an Uber in New York.

We've been meaning to tell this story

for a really long time.

- We have.

- I don't know why we haven't gotten around to telling it.

- When we were in New York,

we did live streams every single day.

And I remember it happened and we said in the live stream,

we're not going to talk about it

because we're gonna save it for another video.

And we never have done it.

- So where do we begin, Joel?

It was throwing it down with rain, wasn't it?

- Yup

- Throwing it down.

I'm talking like the heaviest rain.

- Yeah

- You've ever seen.

When it landed on my skin, I was like ow, ow, ow, ow!

- Yeah, it was awful.

What we decided to do was that we wanted to go to Wal-Mart.

So this was the day that we made the Wal-Mart video,

which if you want to watch it,

it will probably be linked in the cards or something.

- Can I just say, that video,

ended up being not only my worst moment on the Internet

because I tried on a fluffy jacket.

Sprayed it with something, and then-

- Perfume.

- I didn't buy it.

- Yeah.

- No, I sprayed it with ab spray.

That's not perfume, that's a joke.

- Yeah but it's perfume, it was still like nice scent.

I get why people had issues.

- It was meant to give me abs and it didn't.

- But it was a nice smelling spray

and your allowed to try on things.

Anyway, people just got triggered about it.

Fair enough, that's fine.

You do you, we'll do us, but anyway.

- Went to Wal-Mart, didn't intend to do that there

but we wanted to make this video anyway.

- Yeah.

- So we're at our Airbnb in, where is that Airbnb?

- Actually, we were in New Jersey, technically.

This was our New York trip, but we were in New Jersey.

- Yeah.

- In an Airbnb. But so what we decided was that

we were gonna go to Wal-Mart.

- Yeah.

- But we planned and seen that there was

this big shopping center that we wanted to go to.

That was apparently was like an outlet mall in New Jersey,

so it was really cheap clothing

and it was right next to a Wal-Mart.

So we were like, great we'll go to Wal-Mart,

film the video and then go shopping.

- Okay, yeah, perfect.

So we get our...

Bare in mind we've only got wifi inside

where we're staying.

We haven't got like 3G data on our phone,

cause it's like extortioner it costs so much per minute.

- Like international roaming charges.

- Yeah.

So we booked this Uber to the Wal-Mart

that's near the outlet center.

- Was it like 45 minutes away?

- Yeah, it was like a 45 minute journey.

I think it was cheaper to book an uberPOOL?

No we didn't, did we get an uberPOOL?

No we didn't.

- Yeah we did.

- Oh we booked an uberPOOL?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We booked an uberPOOL because it's slightly cheaper

and we get uberPOOLs all the time in London.

So we were like, well why not?

- I got one here.

It doesn't matter if someone jumps in the Uber

they're going in the same direction, its,

you know economical, is that the right word?

- Economical, economical, I don't know, all of them.

- Economical?

- Well it's probably about 10 dollars cheaper

to do an uberPOOL, and were like,

well of course Uber wouldn't have that feature there

if they don't want you to use it.

So, book uberPOOL, no big deal.

- Yeah, no big deal, we use it all the time in London.

Didn't know it was different over there, anyway.

The Uber arrives, we run out, it's throwing it down.

We get into the Uber and we're driving for like 25 minutes?

I'd say?

Bare in mind, we've got no idea where we are.

We're literally like,

we're just getting into someones car as you would, in a cab,

and we're trusting that they're going to take us

to the destination we've got- - Cause we've got no idea.

- On the Uber App.

Which is what we do all the time,

everywhere else, we've never ever had a problem

with Uber before.

- We sat in the back.

After about 15 minutes someone else got in,

this man coming out of his house.

- The school, I thought he was going to an interview

or something.

- I think so.

He was very smartly dressed and he jumped in the car.

I think he had his earphones in,

he didn't even say hi to the driver.

- Or to us.

- Or to us.

He just got in, that was fine.

We didn't want to talk to anyone anyway.

We're Brits.

(laughing)

- And yeah then we drove for about 15 more minutes?

Maybe?

To drop him off. - He got dropped off first,

so it doesn't matter who gets in first,

whoever's destination is on the way first

gets dropped off first.

Just for anyone who isn't familiar.

So, we drop off this guy and then we sort of,

carrying on to our destination.

- Or about to, no, he didn't even stop driving.

- He didn't even stop driving did he?

- Oh, so the guy got out

and then he sort of like stays where he is pulled over

and he was like, bare in mind,

we couldn't understand a word he was saying,

cause he was kinda French.

- Yeah, he spoke French.

He's from Haiti, it turns out.

And so his English was very broken.

I think he may... they speak French in Haiti.

I think they do.

- He was speaking to us in French

and he kept saying like, do you speak French?

In French to us, and we were like, no.

We speak English.

And he basically was like, get out of the car.

- Yeah, and we're like, why?

It was still throwing it down.

We're like, huh, what do you mean?

He's like, you need to get, well, all in broken English,

you have to get out I'm not going there.

And we were like, what?

What's going on?

And he said it, he was so angry and defensive,

just like, get out and we were like, what is going on?

- We kept looking at each other like,

have you done something?

Have I done something?

I was like looking to see if if like, has Joel vomited?

What's going on,

that's made this driver just suddenly really angry

and annoyed?

- And wasn't there something with,

he had his iPad with the rating

and he was like, are you bloody blind?

And then like rated him like one star

because he thought that was you, or like?

- Yeah, he was like, are you,

like say James was the guys name who just got in.

He's like, are you James?

And I think I was like, no, obviously.

But he gave then that James guy like a zero rating,

thinking that, that was us.
