Shark Tank US | Sharks Get Into A Heated Argument Over Minus Cal Product 

@jbenz1990 - your Barbara PHONY story joke is ... NOT funny!

Lmao

@@warriormanmaxx8991 And for that reason, she's out.

😆😂🤣

This gave me a good laugh to start my day, thank you!

Can clearly read it all over his face

He was soo embarrassed 😞😞

feel like if he was doing it by himself, he’ll get an offer or something, old dude wouldn’t shut up.

He knew it was over when the old dude started to confront mark, that made up everyone’s minds quick

Felt bad for him. Trying to make his dad’s dream a reality.

😂😂

Imagine them giving 50% of the compnay. Kevin - their scam is now my scam😂

Because he has no ethics

@@kuxhbhi1000he loves a hood scam… and it’s funny he always waits to be the last one lmfao

Brother its a way of getting out he clearly doesn't have any interest in the product if he had he would counter with lesser money he beeds an excuse for getting out its just that

The saying is "it's a product NOT a company" and Robert's dad was a janitor do he had nothing. Close though.

@@eliseo5416 i thought his dad worked in a factory ?

Hilarious 😆

No Kevin says he wants no equity and some perpetuity deal lmao

And Robert says “here’s my challenge” a lot lol

He was flabbergasted 😂

I guess he didn’t know people all have different taste buds lol

Same lol 2:04 “wh-wh-what?”

the "old dude" as you call him is MY DAD!

@Shrooms2891 hes old

Yeah, miiight need to get a new partner.

@@TeezyMcGuire86 nah the old guy is right, defending his business from a bad coverage

Me at work

@@arnoldgareth818 yeh how can a bunch of entrepreneurs be so stupid😂 the old guy is literally just saying he's on pushing the title to the extreme but it will help what do they expect? you can take whatever you want with health even if is say will lose weight on it but you have to do something with it

Cause he knew that old man anger was coming out.

Robert is probably the best shark and dragon on that. Always respectful and very professional with his behavior and he doesnt always cut people while they are talking unlike Mark whoconstantly wants to be the conductor of the tank.

Bunch of softies

​@@marc-antoinemarcoux697Nah. Mark stays quiet in some episodes unless it's actually bs. If you did watch Shark Tank, you'd notice that too.

@@ThelRiSycusee touch guy in the comment section… lol

​@@marc-antoinemarcoux697he is actually the worst cuz he is known to make deals with entrepreneurs and not follow thru and never signing. Meaning he just steals someone the opportunity from signing a deal with another shark

He became a fitness coach after his business failed. He won't make you lose weight he will help you lose weight.

Older gentleman should have just kept his mouth shut and took the L.

Good entrepreneur should control the situation in such circumstances, the guy failed.

At least gramps was standing on business

Classic Boomer mentality, doubling down and digging his heels into his snake oil scam

🤣🤣🤣🤣

100%

Mark may be the richest, but he is the most troll like, arrogant, and annoying. Connected? Maybe

Lol ur soft if u think that

How do you even know he's right about the product? They are saying that they process green tea extrac choleve to the point that it's amplified, which ultimately reduces your fat intake. Since fat has more calories than other macronutrients, they are actually right that it can help you lose weight. What's bothering me is that if it was a 14 year old highschool girl that was pitching this, Mark wouldn't be so brutal.

Lmao

Nah mark calls a scam when he sees one and it calls for interesting arguments for more views

Mark even delayed going out to argue with these guys some more…for some reason his ultimate trigger is these kind of products

Sometimes you shouldn’t tolerate bullshit especially when it’s very blatant, that’s what Robert wasn’t understanding. Mark didn’t wanna hear anymore of the blatant mess.

@@JohnDoe-eu9po mark is extremely IMPATIENT. It's so frikin annoying

He at least had studies conducted by universities to validate some of what he was saying. Mark Cuban looked way more irritated as soon as he heard their claims. I don't like that he just immediately shot down and discredited everything, to Robert's point.

Welcome to the south in general and Nashville in particular.

@@jmoneyosh to be fair, the old guy immediately walked back the claims of this product having anything to do with weight-loss, which is he has the studies is weird, which caused the downward spiral

@@avery465 i mean the studies only showed that about 100 calories were removed from the lower intestine with the choleve exiting the system

@@jmoneyoshyeah but unless he brings paperwork saying that, he could just be making that up I could say Duke did a study on my right leg and that it was the sexiest leg they’ve ever seen Doesn’t mean that it’s true

Oh my god that sounds exhausting

He looks so face speaking... i wondering what he thinking. Does he have a channel

Their point is that it can help you lose weight but cant guarantee it. If you eat 4,000 calories losing just 100 wont result in weight loss.

Its just saying its a great way to be able to put on less calories and still eating something good . When you eat a salad its going to have less calories but it doesn’t necessarily mean youre going to lose weight

Its a problem if a shark nails them for every single word.. sometimes you mean in literally and sometimes not. Everyone understands that but some sharks just want to play hard.

This old man is out here trying to sell candy bars when should be running for office, I'm sure people will vote him in. lol

How hard is it to figure out that they mean it can help you lose weight but there is no guarantee??? They are not claiming you will lose weight that would be making a guarantee come on this is just common sense, if you lose 100 calories but you eat 5000 there is no way you will lose weight hence they say it's a great way TO and not that you WILL.

Nah he was defending his business against Mark calling it “air”

@@lordot8665 bc it is air & he knows it

@@hnstlywhtevr o ok Sammy

I think that ain’t fair. The old guy was civil the whole way through it was Mark that started a shouting match and calling their business a sham. That’s just offensive no matter what. Of course the old guy would get defensive

@@hnstlywhtevr No. That's not how it works. You need to listen to what they have to say and see if they have research done on their product. Mark should've listened.

there are also many supplements that work and generate millions of dollars of revenue....

@@ericantone8709nope not really

@@ericantone8709are there are even more that DON’T 💀

​@@ericantone8709 apart from whey and creatine,most of supplements are scam

IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T MAKE STUPID INVESTMENTS

Lol, I don't know how this narrative even started. Barbara one of the best deal makers on the show

@@ronniekregar3482 nah

Now we can see why they call him Mr. wonderful

@@golga14BIG DIKC ENERGY

Lol he said it like they died in that room. Like Rest In Peace

mr wonderful was smart. he knew that old guy was unstable and most likely to "come after mark" instead of him

Kevin is the best shark

So mark is against supplements?

And Damon?

@@SolomonsWisdom and damon is just the black guy on the show so there’s some diversity

@@err7273 cmon bruh.. he’s pretty funny and makes intelligent investments

@@himlolo i was joking haha. he doesn’t invest very often and when he does throw an offer it’s ridiculous (sometimes)

fucking caffeine? lol

Me when I am trying to reach my word count on my essay

@@Dyl_Cam ceffeine isn't the only ingredient in green tea? not even close?

@@FoxyDrew Thats his point. Saying something comes from green tea doesnt make it "green tea extract". Caffeine is in green tea, but if you take it out of green tea then its still caffeine, not "green tea extract". However it was derived from the tea. The poison in Eucalyptus plants isn't its "extract" but it is derived from it.

Green tea extract is the entire solid mass that you retain after losing the liquids. Which is NOT the same as deriving a single molecule from green tea. D*mba$$

He only goes ham if the people there dont know their sales and margins, a scam, or just there for shark tank publicity and not a deal

@@hippobreath3703 I agree and he’s usually right. But I also hear Robert that he acts like a bully sometimes in the way he repeatedly beats everyone over the head with his point.

I mean, the product is a scam.... and Robert is wildly arrogant. He just likes to pretend to be altruistic.

That's why he's a billionaire. He's laughing all the way to the bank on that one

@@jacobtworks Mark is wildly arrogant also.

More like health supplements not fitness.

I wouldn’t really take health/fitness advice from a 40+ yo outa shape bussines guy but hey maybe thats just me lmao

@@TheFightHubb no way you are siding with this scam bar lmao and anyone can have knowledge its not based on how you look

@@Noah-jb9om not saying i side with them lmao, im just saying. Mark has always resented suplements on shark tank like he’s some kind of fitneds guru. Im ngl I dont know any of the products besides this one but if he really ignores them just cause they’re suplements thats kinda dumb, like yes a LOT of supplements are straight up scams and useless but plenty of them have also been (scientifically) proven to work, sometimes really well at that

If you mean supplements that claim to burn fat then they’re all scams. You don’t need to be a fitness guru to recognize these products as scams.

I know right! There are other full pitches on here as well

Best comment on the post 💯

haha good one

😂

You could market it to the gender Neutral population call it ............ MINUS GENDER Drink this tea and you will no longer have any genitals they just melt away :P

He made points but was also extremely ignorant

These negotiations are 2 hours long

@@Girlslikeus89 nah the stuff is a scam. Nothing respectful about it

😂

@POGGERS TESTINE Good man. hbu

And ignorant

That’s why ur a joke. Robert is a joke too. He always tries to be sympathetic when there’s no need for it. These two were nothing more than con artists. Mark called it exactly for what it is…..a SCAM

@@woodya2842 And Robert agreed with everything that Cuban said, but he stated that he should let them finish and stop interrupting. If Robert is to invest, he can't because Cuban does not let anyone talk. It's a reality show, if people don't talk, there is nothing special about it. Use your brain sometimes, peace!

its actually better that way and I really hope those people dont take it personally. It's all about the products,they give business advices and they tell you right away without wasting your time. 5 business experts giving you a business lessons,its priceless.

He's the perfect spokesman. I been taking this for 12 years and I'm still fat

@@americannightmare2109 stop 🤣🤣😭😭😭

the business doesnt exist anymore

Im a biochemistry major and ive done a research project in uni a few years ago about the effects of tea, coffee and other natrual components. I think i know what is the molecule they are talking about and from my knowledge about similar experiments with it, it lowers the fat ratios that are absorbed by the body. It doesnt make u lose weight rather u gain less weight by eating it sounds like the same thing but its not.

@@sds3841 what's the name of that molecule ?

It's cos their money's on the line

They arent judges its not a talent show lol. They are investors or "sharks"

bhai tu ne himesh ko ni dekha kya

Got me wheezing! 😂

My answer: nothing in life is guaranteed. It's a weight loss aid. A car helps you get from A to B, but it won't take you there unless you take the wheel and operate the pedals

@@commanderkeen3787 i know what they were trying to say. But even the old man got lost when Mark asked him about the name of the product. That's why I said they didn't present it well. And I just looked them up and they're out of business which brings me to my other point: the market is saturated with these kinds of products already.

@Hutch Jordan there have been businesses that get trashed on this show, and companies that don't secure deals that went on and still managed to go forward. Their business failed because apparently the "science" they were referring to here wasn't exactly concrete. So their main claim as to why their product is different isn't true, which makes it just another product that supposedly aids in weight loss, which the market already has a lot of. Cubes can be a dick sometimes, I agree, but this product went out of business not because of what he said.

Who said they had to offer something new? This is a massive industry, if they can get their foot in the door I'm not surprised they're trying

@@Jomskylark there's a reason why one of the common question the sharks ask in the show is "is there something like this already in the market?" And if there already is, they should make a good enough pitch for someone to invest in it. From sports drinks, to healthy snacks to clothing, there are a lot of products that would be similar. It's up to them to present it well. They didn't.

6:35

Exactly, idk why but Mark irritated me here. The guy said it stops the fat from entering, its not a weight loss pill, its a fat preventative type pill. Yet Mark still can't wrap his head around that.

@@ImOlegnaOrg what did it say on the board

@@parasd1297 do you know what semantics are

@@ImOlegnaOrg do you know what a consumer would think walking up to that product? Oh it stops fat entering my body, it says weight loss, let me take this too lose weight and not enter a gym and maybe workout and correct my diet. That’s what their gonna think. This product sucks and mark was 100% right.

Problem is why would anyone need to buy an overpriced bar when all you need to do is run a deficit and eat real food

@@kevinconroy6606 a lot of people struggle to be consistent with this method of losing weight and a lot of people like the idea of there being a easier route to fat loss, so I think that may be a reason why. I wouldn’t be one of those people but I imagine there is people like that who would buy it.

Maybe he has ADHD that's why he keeps interrupting others when he has something important to say. and he did, he wanted to call them out on their bs.

yeah usually its the edit but based on roberts reaction i think mark was just outta pocket this time

Yeah it usually takes an hour or more for a single pitch.

That's important. Bc Mark is annoyed that the other 4 sharks are wasting time, but to us it seemed like 60 seconds. If it was actually 15minutes on what's clearly a scam, that's certainly annoying and not worth his time.

I agree with you on the part where you said "Yeah, he can be arrogant". The rest are just excuses. If you don't like it, just don't invest. If you find a flaw with it, mention it but don't disrespect the people, it can easily be traumatic for them.

yeah they dont even know what their product is

He said help loose weight. Just like exercise, you can loose weight with it, but you can't guarantee it.

@@sweet1 worst product ever

@@MySteamcracker I don't care about the product, it's Mark taking one piece of a statement and running off with it is what is wrong. -That's like saying exercise is a scam because you don't loose weight with exercise -Or, wearing a mask is a scam because you can still get covid -Or, don't buy food because it disappears There's a truth those statements but excluding the details which he wasn't allowing them to explain just leads to ignorance. And I'm not saying to agree with it. It's better to listen than to speak.

@@sweet1 but he clearly said lose weight, you can't claim that. Its like saying eating bananas might make you lose weight

Cuban is ignorant and wrong These people did the research to back up their claim, Cuban don't get it

Facts. He identified it as a scam long before the other sharks and they were upset with him for it until the old guy revealed it in plain language.

Lol I read this comment at the exact instant that it showed the young guy nervously darting his eyes around

Well there weren't any numbers there weren't any sales. So Kevin did not had to go all nuclear on them. He let puny Mark and robert fight them out from the get go. 😂

@@words007 Mark is the billionaire in the room, lol. Kevin is in the hundred millions, he is puny.

@@mohammadijaz8647 dude i know it and as a guy i like mark and his straight to the point attitude. But he doesn't know about growing a business the way Kevin knows. I know all his own past accomplishment. That doesn't make him More experienced then someone of the field. Im not even talking about the billions he has. He has from his other accomplishment mostly from his company he sold back in 2000s and his Team bringing in billions a year. Kevin is good at making business from ground up go check his history.

@@mohammadijaz8647 if a 21 year old become a billionaire today making business like tiktoc or Pokemon go or something. Would u call him equal to the likes of facebook and twitter? They been in the ground long before these new apps blew up. Doesn't matter if they are billionaire too. Kevin has a lot of experience every growing business can learn from him More then rest of them. I have not said mark is inferior in any way. But he doesn't have knowledge like Kevin do

why would they roast them? they did nun wrong

For real 😂😳

The old guy is the owner, the young guy is there for display and to look better. You can't be a "fit" supplement company and have the presenter looking like a unhealthy bald old guy with bad eye sight who's obese and looks like he's been eating mcdonalds for a couple decades, so he brought on a young fit tall blonde guy to present with him. Trying to hint that's what happens when taking Minus Cal. And I'm not sure if that young guy is co owner of the company, maybe a small part owner, or maybe just someone he hired to do the presentation with.

Most entitled people to ever live

😂😂😂😂😂

For real real. Not like a boomer ever made a successful business! Oh wait.. I actually can think of a few. I'm sure your way more savvy though bud.

Exactly! I winder what would Mark claim if he were pitching for the product.

But they said that it will help in losing calories. Losing calories means losing weight. And then they go and say we don't claim that it helps lose weight, when it clearly states in the banner even the name implies it. So obviously the sharks would go off. The way they branded this product and named the product is wrong.

And plus, they relied on few papers and jama internal medicine papers as proof. Even then the data was inconclusive. Proper research should have been conducted for this. Choleve has mixed results for actually blocking fat. You can't just use any substitutes for losing calories just because few study papers suggested it. Supplements like these should be suggested by the dietician. This was a scam product and glad it was called out.

Yup, as soon as you hear, "block fat" and "not absorb fat calories", you know it's bullshit.

But it has the tea molecule in it. How can it NOT make you lose weight?

@@ThePsychoBone Being in a calorie deficit is the only way to lose fat. It uses the body's fat as an energy reserve, thus burning fat.

@samuel brown if you’re inhibiting GI absorption of fat, you’re essentially doing that. It’s exactly what Orlistat does. There are several forms of lipids or fat. The two most common and most abundant in the body are triglycerides and cholesterol. Triglycerides, unlike glucose, aren’t directly used as fuel. It gets stored in the periphery. Under episodes of hypoglycemia, like during starvation or a ketogenic diet, they then become utilized as energy. In addition to this, gluconeogenesis is done on some fat and protein to try and return blood glucose levels back to normal. Cholesterol on the other hand can’t even be utilized as energy. It’s commonly used to synthesize your steroid hormones. Testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone are common examples of your steroid hormones. Also bile acids are derived from cholesterol. So best believe, any form of fat in excess of your dietary requirement is going to your periphery.

@@fahadalghanim5618 where was mark wrong?

Where was he wrong tho? Mark is almost always right, sorry ppl can’t seem to handle that

@@majorg6065 @sweet1 They said it blocks fat molecules, which means it reduces fat absorption artificially, muscles also contain weight. Losing fat is not equal to losing weight. It aids in the process losing weight by blocking the absorption fat molecules which add on to a lot of useless weight. The old guy had his concepts right, but mark was a rockhead who had no idea about the science behind it. This is 8th grade science right here folks... I'm sorry but your lover mark is not so bright indeed

Mark is an impatient guy that wants people to make split second decisions. Incredibly arrogant.

@@RPKD88 Your confusing arrogance because he doesn’t need this company he’s a billionaire they need him he doesn’t need them so of course he’s going to be a bit arrogant but as he worked and earned the right to do so to say it’s arrogant to force people to make decisions quickly is wrong his time could be spent making another million dollars so of course he’s not going to want to be slow and precise because his time is more precious than anyone else why build another house if you’ve got a hundred more needing to be sold unless you can build it quickly and efficiently

Funnily enough, those are two different things.

Muscle weighs more than fat, you can lose fat, and not lose wait, that's why they have a body fat percentage and people who are in great shape have a very low number, but aren't skinny.

@@theblackflame4002 muscle is more dense* than fat, technically still not the same thing also lets be real when ppl want to lose weight 99% of the time they want to lose fat, not muscle mass

@@ozkan576 lmao. If something is more dense, then it has to weigh more. It technically is the same thing. Density is mass/volume. A cubic inch of muscle weighs more than a cubic inch of fat.

They are indeed two different things genius, you could weigh 240 pounds and have very little fat contributing to the weight.

Yeah, a lot of good that did him and his business. 🙄 Having the guts to say to the faces of the shark what he wanted to say didn't do him any good when most of the things he said were utter bullshit.

To be fair those 2 are exclusive of each other. They said it blocked fat and they had scientific studies to prove it. The didn't say it was a weight loss pill. If it blocks calories but you still eat wrong then now. But if you have a healthy diet and take the pills maybe you would lose 20% more weight then without them. My slogan would be boost your weight loss by 20% with _______.

@@zappyeats2579 1:29 the young man says it’s a great way to lose weight. Also at 2:58 the old man says that it throws away 100 cal of fat from the body but when Cuban tells them at 3:08 that they can’t just claim that the young man says they didn’t claim that.

That's dumb. Weight loss supplements don't make you lose weight. They help you in the process. It still comes down to your diet and activity level. Doesn't mean that its a scam

@@giorgig4828 By that logic, Serial Killers don't kill people, they just help you with the process of dying. Still leads to death. A ton of supplement use all sorts of words to make you think a product does one thing when it really doesn't.
