  • This is Old Town Square.

  • The most visited square in Czech Republic in Prague.

  • And one of the biggest tourist traps in Prague is right here.

  • This exchange place.

  • What this place does is instead of 27 CZK for 1 EUR, they'll give you fifteen CZK for one EUR.

  • It's horrible, and they're still here for decades.

  • Nobody's doing anything about it.

  • We're gonna do something about it today.

  • You don't want to change in this place, no.

  • 1 EUR, 15 CZK.

  • Bad.

  • It's very bad, so here's a map to a better place.

  • It's right there.

  • You just go straight there, no problem.

  • We just saved what, one, two, three, four people.

  • Let's save more.

  • Make sure to ask before you change.

  • (They) give you 15 CZK for one EUR instead of 26.5 (CZK).

  • That's today's rate.

  • This is a tourist trap.

  • If you want a better exchange place, just follow these maps.

  • 15 (CZK) , very bad

  • This place is very bad.

  • Just keep going guys, nothing to see here.

  • Nothing to see here guys.

  • So, so far, we have saved about 20 people.

  • If you do the math, if every single one of them would exchange 50 euros, that's a thousand euros, but he would leave half of it for this company.

  • So we saved them, 500 euros, in 30 minutes?

  • That's good.

  • I like this.

  • So this is the first time we hear the astronomical clock.

  • It's going to be many more times today.

  • You're going to get three hundred CZK.

  • (Cestina: Miss, give him rate 27 CZK, please.)

  • So the score is 40 to 1.

  • One guy, just, we couldn't help him.

  • He just would change the money.

  • (Spanish: 15 CZK for 1 EUR.)

  • Do not do it here.

  • You would get 15 CZK.

  • Follow the map, okay, or try to get as close to 27 crowns as possible.

  • Sometimes Honza can't film because he has to help me when there's like a big group of tourists

  • And we're like "Noo."

  • Always ask before you change anywhere, okay?

  • Oh, you don't want to change here.

  • Very bad.

  • So, two hours went by, we're still here.

  • And we saved about a hundred people.

  • So far so good.

  • And we're not going anywhere.

  • You know how many times we have heard the sentence, "thank you" today?

  • About 300 times.

  • You know how many times people sitting inside this place heard it?

  • Never.

  • He's saying I cannot do it.

  • And I'm telling him, i will do it.

  • I will do this.

  • I will continue doing this because I'm trying to save people from losing money.

  • We shook it off!

  • So, basically to make the long story short, they call the cops, obviously, that we're blocking their business.

  • I called my lawyers, or our lawyers, and they said that...

  • Oh miss, don't change your money here.

  • So yeah, we're just continue doing it now.

  • Saving people one by one.

  • So the score as a right now is 300 to 2.

  • Two people slipped.

  • One guy just didn't want to talk to us and he only changed five euros.

  • So that's good.

  • But, that's not even going to be good for Trdelník or anything because he got 75 CZK instead of 135 CZK.

  • And of course this place has two doors, so there's another friend by the second door.

  • Zdeněk!

  • 2 minutes away is a good place!

  • So eventually the state police came by and they said that there's a city law where we cannot hand out flyers.

  • So we're not going to hand them out.

  • We're just going to show them and they said it's okay, but...

  • Hi, do you speak English?

  • But this place is really bad, no problem.

  • Thanks.

  • Bye!

  • I need to pee.

  • Save the world for me.

  • We have just received a letter from Gordon Robert Prior.

  • A guy who's representing checkpoint.

  • And he's telling us that as of right now because of what we're doing here they have lost hundreds of thousands of Czk.

  • No.

  • You didn't lose money.

  • We saved money from those people.

  • Those people actually...

  • We saved them money because you have a really, really bad rate.

  • And he's also saying that if we publish this video...

  • So if you're watching this right now, I may be in jail because he's saying we can get prison for two years.

  • Up to two years

  • That's pretty bad.

  • And another hour went by, we're still here trying to save tourists.

  • And we're successful!

  • And the cops are here again.

  • But luckily, we're not doing anything illegal.

  • So, it's good.

  • We're saving people.

  • We're saving your money.

  • Please share this video, so nobody will go to this place ever again.

  • So there's a there's a good place right there.

  • 26.5 CZK is what you should get for 1 EUR.

  • So guys it's five o'clock.

  • The astronomical clock is just telling us...

  • We're tired, so we got to go home.

  • Unfortunately, this place is here 24/7.

  • So we need your help.

  • Share this video, spread the news.

  • Please do it.

  • Let people know that this is an epic tourist trap.

  • This is like the definition of a turist trap.

  • Hey guys, don't change your money here.

  • It's a trap.

  • It's a tourist trap.

  • So we were peeing once and we had one bottle of water.

  • I'm just...

  • You?

  • dead?

  • Hi guys, do speak English?

  • Warning: this place is a tourist trap.

  • To get your attention, I'm also going to tell you where to find the biggest pokéman.

  • Also, there's a free Wi-Fi in my pocket.

  • And as a bonus free white paper.

  • Warning: this map is included.

This is Old Town Square.
