Introduction to Video Content

In this video, the blogger shares his experience of using unethical life hacks to get free stuff. He begins by showing himself waking up in first class on an airplane, having upgraded his seat without paying for it. He explains that sometimes, by complaining about a service or pretending to be an important person, he can convince the staff to offer him a free first class upgrade. Once he lands back in the UK, he embarks on a day filled with various unethical life hacks.The first hack he demonstrates is attending business events that offer free breakfast. He finds these events online and decides to go to a local council business briefing meeting. However, upon arriving, he notices security presence, possibly due to ongoing protests outside. Despite this, he confidently walks in, acting like he belongs, and manages to avoid being questioned. He jokes about how getting involved in local council drama actually makes him feel less guilty about taking their free breakfast.After successfully navigating past the event organizer, who initially does not have him on the list, he finally gets his hands on a buttery croissant and a cup of orange juice. Overall, it seems like a successful start to his day of unethical life hacks.

Subtitles section

This is me, waking up in first class of an airplane, about to enjoy a breakfast, and the best thing of all is I didn't pay for the upgrade.

This is the ticket I bought, seat No.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

in the hopes it makes their day so much better sometimes they'll offer you a free first class upgrade and once I land back in the UK I have a whole day of unethical life hacks to complete before I can sleep you did not want to miss this one

Thank you so much for that.

Enjoy, take care.

Thanks to Shopify for sponsoring this video.

Now for the first life hack of the day we're starting off simple.

I found loads of business events online which dish out free breakfast.

Now I'm just about to rock up to a local council business briefing meeting that comes with breakfast.

So I walked in confidently knowing if I just acted like I belonged here no one would question it.

Wait, why is there security for a free event?

Actually, maybe it was something to do with the protests going on outside Honestly, I've just come here for free breakfast and somehow I managed to get involved with some local council drama But in some ways it did make me feel less guilty about taking their breakfast, you know sticking up for the little guy I mean

But I couldn't let it get to me.

I was here for one thing and one thing only.

But there was still one event organiser to get past.

For some reason, I wasn't on the list.

Phew.

So with my lane badge on, it was time to see what they had for breakfast.

One buttery croissant and a cup of OJ.

A good start.

Now I just needed to leave the place before the event starts so that I don't have to listen to two hours of oh no.

If it means that you have to keep crossing roads in the rain, that isn't particularly encouraging.

Who isn't going to beat it?

I was trapped, and this was really boring.

For me at least.

I needed to get out of here, and after spotting another person making a headway for the exit, I took my chance.

What's his name?

Tasty Pastries, Just a Few Too Many Slideshows.

Two stars.

Next up I fancy a little bit of leisure and in London there's lots of fancy five star hotels which have lovely spas if you're staying there.

So for this unethical life hack I'm gonna walk into the spa with my robe on in the hopes they think I'm staying in the hotel and let me in without my room key.

But I couldn't just walk towards the entrance of my robe as there was a guy on the door.

So I had to find a place to get changed once inside and for some reason I thought getting changed in the lifts was the best idea.

Luckily no one followed me in, so there was only one thing left to do.

Yep, my genius plan was to pretend I had gone swimming and got locked out.

What could possibly go wrong?

Oh God this was bad and the next few Excruciating minutes go like this.

I stand at the check in desk and write down a fake name.

I answer how my stays going Lovely could not complain everyone gets suspicious of me.

It is indeed, yeah.

This lady realises I'm not staying in the hotel.

Meanwhile, the other lady finds my clothes in a pile around the corner.

That was my stuff, yeah.

And my camera dies right at the point I get grilled.

So, I walked on out of the hotel, still in my robe.

Right, so the last hotel spa experience didn't go too well.

In fact, it was one of the worst experiences of my life.

This time, I'm going to walk in with my robe.

For some reason, I thought this was a good idea.

Things I do, eh?

So I approached the entrance.

Just me, my pasty white legs, and my untrusty robe against the world.

Let's do this.

I walked straight through the restaurant, past the first staff member, then another.

I had learned from last time, this is all about acting as if I stayed there.

Just here for the spot, yeah?

Correct.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll have a look.

Yeah.

Have a look.

Phew, he was friendly.

But I knew after the last one that there'd be another person manning the door to the spa.

I just needed to guess the secret password.

Well, that was a relief.

No excruciating conversations this time round, and I was in one of London's nicest pools.

I just needed to keep a low profile and not embarrass myself again.

Would it be possible to get a shot of my girlfriend and me jumping in the pool?

Super cringe.

Yeah, sure.

Oh no.

I've embarrassed myself again.

High risk, high reward.

Four stars.

Now, I may have went to that business event this morning for the sole purpose of getting breakfast, but I used to go to these sort of business events all the time.

That was when I ran a business called The Health Water Co.

One thing that stayed the same through my entrepreneurial journey is that I've always used Shopify to launch my own products, whether that's the one million subscriber coin or maybe a silly little trucker hat for clouds.

There's no clouds there right now.

Shopify lets you sell online, in person, and on all major social platforms.

I've always loved how easy they are to use.

The website editor means you can literally build a website in a number of hours with no coding experience at all.

I mean, look at that.

That's a good looking website.

They also have a mobile app, which allows you to add new products really easily.

But my absolute favorite feature of them all is this live view.

And you can see exactly where your customers are right now in the app.

So if you feel like me and you want to bring a creative idea to the world, then use the link in my description.

I'm sure you won't regret it.

Lunchtime.

Food markets, home to the free sample.

Just try it.

Chicken.

But they're not going to serve this face more than once.

That's why I need to go back with disguise.

Oh my God.

I'm not even going to be able to eat the chicken.

A hundred percent natural.

This ain't going to work, is it?

Oh, here goes nothing.

Hello.

Any free samples?

It's an old man wanting some chicken.

Really?

Thank you.

How old are you?

Eighty four.

Eighty four?

Yeah.

Oh, delicious.

I'm eating fur.

Even if I do know, it still works.

Where are you?

I'm so sorry.

Oh, yeah.

Hello, one chicken, please.

I'm just going to go straight for it.

Here goes nothing.

Hello.

I know you.

No, you don't know me.

No.

I'm twenty now.

Can I have a bit of chicken?

Do you want me to sing you a rock song?

Give me the chicken!

Thank you for the sample.

Oh God.

The chicken's good.

They've rumbled me so badly.

Oh, God.

There was no chance this one was working, but there was no time to dwell.

I was on a testing mission.

Hello.

Nope.

You look so sexy.

What are you talking about?

Oh, my God.

Will you be my girlfriend?

I don't have no idea what you're talking about.

One more girl?

What a sexy figure.

Make it bigger.

Use two hands.

Thank you.

Will you be my girlfriend?

No.

Please.

I'm interested in men.

Men!

I can be man for you.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

Okay, I think that was valid scores.

No!

I have no dignity left.

One star.

Now for this next hack.

I'm going to test the theory that you can get in anywhere with a ladder.

It's a classic on the internet.

Safe to say I wasn't confident in this one.

The fact it had been so overdone online surely meant most cinema staff would immediately know.

Where is everyone?

This place is empty.

With no staff by the entrance though, I quickly scurried into the lift.

Here goes nothing.

Right, we're in.

I knew the staff would be waiting as soon as I got out.

I checked both sides and the coast was clear, but then... Hey, you're just on fixtures down here, alright?

I can't believe it worked, but they were definitely getting suspicious of me.

I needed to act believable.

Nothing like a quick fire alarm check to prove I'm a true ladder man.

Now I just needed to find a film to watch.

Now as I sat down to enjoy the movie.

for the most part.

What I didn't realize is I'd just been spotted on their CCTV and they'd gone to get their manager.

This is the text I got from my producer, so I had to make a quick escape.

As I left the screen, there was no one at the desk, so I made a quick dash for the lift to get out of here.

Unfortunately for me though, the staff members were already one step ahead of me.

Oh, hello.

Hi.

One down.

And with that disappointed look, it was game over for the ladder.

Everyone's seen the TikToks and you need to buy a ladder.

Zero stars.

And now I was down to my last unethical life hack.

Signing up to free events just to take their pizza.

But what is super unethical about that?

Fun board games for local children and a couple of young adults.

Of all the things I've done today, this one made me feel awful.

Taking candy from a baby is inexcusable, but taking pizza from children has got to be a close second.

But these were unethical life hacks for a reason, and I was committed to see this to the end.

Yes.

Yeah, hell yeah.

However, upon arriving, it became apparent that we were pretty much the only people there.

These three legends had put on an entire event with board games and pizza all for free, and only two kids had turned up.

So, we couldn't let them down, and after a few mouthfuls of the tastiest free pizza I've ever tried... Wow, look at that.

Cheese pizza.

We were gonna put on the greatest game of Jenga they would ever witness.

I've never lost.

Until tonight.

We were two minutes in and the tower was growing ever taller and it didn't take long for it to catch the eye of the event organiser.

Can I take a picture with you?

Not at this moment, please.

Oh yeah, this is Joanna, but you'll meet her properly later.

First, I had a Jenga game to win.

Never lost at Jenga, never will.

I'm just too good.

We kept adding and adding and the tower still wouldn't topple.

This is the highest Jenga tower I've ever seen.

Soon enough, we had taken centre stage for the board games evening.

The whole room's gone silent.

I've never lost a game of Jenga.

And I never will.

Oh, don't you don't.

He's terrible.

Somehow, I'd kept calm under the pressure.

Pressure makes diamonds.

And the tower was so unstable, everyone knew the end was near.

But with a lucky loose find for producer Molly... No way.

It looked all over for Scott.

Oh no, that's a big jiggle.

Oh, it's a bit stuck there, Scott.

I held my breath that entire time.

Where's the round of applause?

Where's the cheers, guys?

Come on.

Well, it's a little late in the process now.

I can't even see straight anymore.

You're ticklish, right?

Don't you dare.

No!

I lied, I've lost many times in Jenga.

Have a quick game with everybody.

Sure, yeah.

Let's do it.

We then had a few games with everyone which didn't go quite as well.

And it was actually a really wholesome evening.

Master of chaos over there.

I know this was supposed to be an unethical life hack, but I like to think we brought a little bit of happiness to the organisers.

We even got chatting to Joanna at the end and she told me why she started this thing in the first place.

It's to get people in and create an inclusive environment.

Just to get people engaged in their community.

We're all having fun, aren't we?

That was possibly one of the more wholesome experiences of my life.

Starting to feel a little bit bad, to be honest.

All these unethical life hacks, there's a victim at the end of it and I just got free pizza and board games pretending that I live in the local community.

So a few weeks later, I wanted to right my unethical wrongs from this video and give Joanna a little surprise.

So I sent my friend in with a few vouchers for some more board games and pizzas for her next event.

Hi there, I've got a delivery for Joanna.

I'll just wait over here.

Hiya, Joanna.

I've got a delivery here for you from the Jenga champions.

Oh yeah, they were the Jenga champions.

Lovely.

Have a lovely evening.

I love you.
