Speaker 1 (00:01):
There's one picture with no context and two comedians with
no clue. This is Picture Discuss. In this episode, a
man is straining against a large, inflated green object that
he is holding right up to his face. Can Chris
Ryan and Danniel Walker tell us what is going on? Well,

(00:21):
you'll have to stick around to the end to hear
the answer. Now here's your host, Merrik Watts.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Thank you for joining me for Picture Discuss. It's really
easy for you to be part of it. You can
just have a look at your phone. Have a look
at that photo there.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
That's one we're going to discuss. Chris Ryan, dannie ol' Walker.
Welcome to Picture Discuss. Chris. Let's have a look at
this picture. I mean, it seems pretty obvious, and yet
it's not. What do we got here?

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Just another man in another stupid competition. Look.

Speaker 5 (00:51):
I looked at it and I instantly thought he wants
to be a podcaster taking ice baths. Oh and and
he's this is some kind of lung capacity test.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
He's with his sch nozzle.

Speaker 5 (01:07):
He's actually breathing air into that bag, trying to fill
it up as much as he possibly can. They're measuring
how much air goes in the bag. It's some kind
of fitness test.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah, I don't know if it's a great physic. He's
a big unit also that Daniel Walker, What are your
first impressions of this picture.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
I think that people don't need to do everything that
they want to do. There is no reason for this
to exist. But I think I know a guy in comedy.
He used to be able to smoke a cigarette with
his mouth and then puff the smoke out of his asshole.
I don't know, out of his butt.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
That's impossible.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Yeah, he would do it. He would do it as
like a party trick.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
One actually looking at his asshole seeing the smoke come out.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
We would see the smoke come out of his pants because.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
He might have had something rigged up.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Look, I'm not a doctor.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Absolutely, we've got this.

Speaker 5 (02:04):
Spoke.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
We've explored smoked.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
All the world.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
I actually haven't.

Speaker 5 (02:10):
But I did have a boyfriend in year eleven who
went behind the couch once to show me, to let
me hear a special trick he had.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
He could breathe in and out of his ass Oh wow,
yeah wow? Did he do it on demand? Did I
heard it come in and out?

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Really? Yep?

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Oh, so he could like open it up. Get that
what happened.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
I didn't get to witness it, but he went behind
the couch and that's what happened.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
The question is, how didn't you marry him? I know,
with obvious skills like that.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
You know, he did actually approach me many years later
in life to apologize for our relationship. And I said, mate,
in the long line of bad boyfriends, you don't stand out.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
As the worst you are.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
You are at least you had that asked trick you
did that.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Was that was your one redeeming character if anything. All right,
let's get back to this picture. I will give this
small clue here.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
This I didn't didn't finish my guess. Oh, yes, sorry,
I think that he's I think he's blowing up that
balloon with his eyes. I reckon he can push air
out of his eyeball sockets and blow it up, can you.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
I'll try and do it now. This would be really quiet.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
No this.

Speaker 5 (03:22):
Okay, I can't git close enough to know whether that
is from your eye my eye?

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Oh, I feel a bit sick. I feel a bit sick. Oh,
but he's like, how do I know it's not your nose?

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Because I told you, and I don't. It was coming
out of my eye.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
I do look uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
It comes out of my left eye.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
Oh, yes, you do look uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Why would we do that because you because you.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
Know, well, why do you go on any weird programs?
Why do you constantly throw yourself in ice? But I
guess you just want to test the human condition.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's not even that. I just want to just do
dumb ship.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
I've been a part of two world record attempts.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Okay, nice one, we're talking Guinness Book.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yeah, because you know I've been poor, and you know
how to get in to do events for free, you
say you'll be a part of the world record attempt.
I blue bubbles at a cricket game because they were
trying to do a thing about like use bubbles not
balloons for the animals. But I got free to get
to a cricket.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Game, so it was part of a group attempt.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
Yeah, mass, oh yeah, I wouldn't do it.

Speaker 5 (04:24):
Did you enjoy the bubble blowing with multi?

Speaker 3 (04:26):
I did it for my boyfriend because he wanted to
go to the cricket game.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
And I'm hearing no, no.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
I didn't want to go to the cricket all blow bubbles.
But I got a player and I went because he
wanted to go to the cricket.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
So that's one record attempt that you've been involved with.
The other one, the.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Other one was something in London.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
I think it was like the most Australians doing some
sort of pub crawl or something. It was like that
sort of thing. I don't even remember.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
I think that's just going to the UK. Yeah, it's
called arriving in England. And so you've had two shots
at the record attempt, so you can kind of you
feel like this might be a Yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
If this is like a Guinness World Record sort of thing,
would you attempt to do it? Would you try and
beat this man's record?

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Now?

Speaker 2 (05:14):
She would, Yeah, i'd probably.

Speaker 5 (05:16):
He's probably going to go away after this and learn
how to breathe in and out of.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
His abum talking out of it at the moment. It
shouldn't be that hard. Breathing is just you know, an
adaptation of speaking out of it. I should be fine.
I'd give it a crack bingo. There we go. Nice
to play, Mary. I will tell you this. This gentleman
is from the country that is the oldest producer and

(05:43):
the home of wine in Europe, So I can pick
that out.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Okay, I'm looking at that flag. Yeah, whatever's going on.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yep, it's in Europe. It's in Europe. Eight thousand years ago.
They invented wine in this country.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
Is it grease?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
No, it's Georgia, Georgia, Georgia in.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
A million years.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
I know that, like eastern Europe.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Where's that? Yeah, it's kind of like near Russia. Yeah yeah.
So what's this guy's day job? Is he single?

Speaker 3 (06:14):
I have been to eastern Europe, and I would say
that a lot of men do look like this over there.
I reckon, I reckon. He's got like five brothers and
they all look exactly the same. And I think he's
I think he's married. And I reckon, this is like
a thing that people do over there, like you know
how like some people really are into arm wrestling. Yes,

(06:36):
I think it's like that sort of thing where it's
like everybody is a customary.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's a custom.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Yeah, and he's like day Georgia. Maybe he's just like
a weightlifter.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
To is this something he's trained for? Is this a
life goal for this guy?

Speaker 4 (06:47):
I don't think it's a life goal.

Speaker 5 (06:48):
I think he's got bigger picture plans, mate, but this
is part of the journey of a man who has discipline,
and I mentioned you can appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
I want to say he's got mold. The poor world
record attempts. He seems like, you know, some people just
choose to make that their thing, yep, where they just
do heaps of world record I can.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Imagine this guy. He walks away from this competition, he
just walks over and there's an enormous tractor tire and
he just hits it with a sligh chamber. And that's
his next record attempt is hitting tires for slow chammer
and he's like the third best in the world and
hitting a tire with a slow chammer. All right, I'm
going to give a little bit of a clue here
that that balloon is in fact a hot water bottle.
It's a hot water bottle. That's why it's got pattern

(07:30):
on it. And it's quite rubber. That's enormous. So that's
like really quite thick, dense rubber. Yeah yeah, And he's
inflated that seemingly inflated with his face. That's a water bottle.
Can I just ask you, how do you feel about
people who sleep with a water bottle in their bed
who are under the age of sixty, if.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
They have a chronic illness, I think it's a very
good idea.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
If they have a chronic kill and the shore little
stific killer. In our books we call them stifficult.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, water bottle, he just moved the hot water bottle.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
You just move the girlfriend. Oh yeah, I broke up
with the girl because she started using hot water bottle.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
I think that makes you a psycho.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
Mary, I think wetablished.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
I like to get cold when I get into bed.
I actually like to be cold getting into bed and
then just wait for it to warm up.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Ye, well, it is. It is, Seriously, it's quite divisive
about people, particularly you know, couples where one person uses
the hot water bottle. And again, you're heading up the
bed too much. You're heading up the bit too much,
you're throwing out too much heat and so therefore, and
that's the problem. I I like to sleep cool like that.
That's why when I had a girlfriend, she had a
water bottle obsession where she would like line the bed
with them going no, I mentioned that, Yeah, she'd have

(08:38):
like she'd line the beach. They have like three.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
Somebody needs to tell electric blankets exist exactly.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
And electric blanks on yours anyway, we just was just
easier to break up rather than have that conversation.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
That electric blankets exist well.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Rather than explaining what electric blanket was, I just went,
which is just split up.

Speaker 5 (08:54):
I mean it does sound petty, I'll give you that, yeah,
But but to be fair, I broke up with a
guy in high school because at Valentine's Day he gave
me rose and he wrote on it. I hope this
is the beginning of something big on the card, but
he's misspelled beginning.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
That was it for me. I'm not even being funny.
That just happened.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
We ready to find out what the answer is to
this picture?

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Did they guess it right? The reveal is coming right up.
Want more feature discussions, check out our back catalog.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Jamal checke Savelli that's his name. In this picture, Cheka
Velli's is inflating a hot water bottle with his nose
during this unusual contest in Tubilisi. I got that right.
On September thirty, two thousand and nine, he used his
nose to inflate and burst three whole water bottles. The

(09:48):
competition is to burst them. You've got to imagine the
back pressure, the pussion, the pressure on that air, and
then you have to flat it until a burst. He
even managed to set the record for the quickest burst
in just thirteen seconds.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Thirteen seconds.

Speaker 4 (10:04):
Can I pop an eyeball? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (10:06):
Absolutely would stop it.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Pop an eyeball or a nut. One of them, one
of them, one of them is popping out. There we go.
