Honest Happy Con Men

There was this guy who came to my gym and tried to promote magnetic belts and socks and underwear!

I am an extremely skeptical guy. And this is my view on what happened.

This guy came claiming to sell infra-red magnetic belts and stuff. He claimed they will make us stronger (haahaa). So he wanted us to do a demonstration. None of us wanted to but there were only a handful of guys in the gym.

What he did was to call a guy (around 70kg) to sit on a bench. 4 others were to sling his infra-red underwear around our shoulders. Each of us had to clasp our palms together (left and right hand) leaving only our index fingers protruded.

What we had to do was to "lift" this guy up using out index fingers. So 2 guys would put their index fingers under the "weight's" armpit, both left and right, and then the other 2, behind his knees.

So we would try to lift him up and it DID happen. Why?. Simple physics. a 80kg person split amongst the four of us is about 20kg each. By clasping our hands together, we were using 2 hands, thus weight on each hand is only 10kg. Still seems like a lot? Nope. we lifted the guy by standing up from a kneeling position, not just using our arms. So it's like piggybacking a small kid up.

We did it again without those "SUPER INVINCIBLE POWERFUL and MIRACULOUS PANDA BRAND underwear" and we found it even easier without the embarrassing stuff slung onto our shoulders.

The Con Man's explanation? Well.. the Infra-red power will last for a while in your bodies. SEE?.. so good!

How They Do It

This Con Man was trying to sell underwear at $38++ each and belts (elastic bands actually) at $300++!! He was also tying to recruit people to sell those stuffs for a "BIG" commission.

So if you wanna help him sell, you have to pay $28 for member fees. There's more.

If you recruit someone to sell under you, you will get about 10% of whatever your "recruit" sells. And if your recruit, recruits someone else to sell also, he will get 10% and you get 5%.

So imagine... most of the cost of those products lead to COMMISSIONS with the distributor taking the MOST.

Now you know why they claim these products can cure pimples, mend broken bones, beautify you, make you stronger internally and externally, grow hair, make you look 30 years younger, cure CANCER, make you rich, more fertile, and lastly, MORE CLEVER (well... after all, you did learn something or two about buying bogus products).

THE END
