  • In November of 1996, 5 friends attempted to make an instructional video explaining the rules of the white elephant gift exchange, those friends were never seen again.
    19 years later the footage was found.

      Don't forget to rewind all tapes prior to returning them otherwise we have to charge you .50 cents for any we rewind.

    I wrapped up a puppy for an exchange, forgot to cut air holes. Punched them in with a knife in hindsight, thankfully the puppy survived. Whew. You should add this into your video as a tip for gifting animals. Good video, very informative.

    This sounds really disturbing. A way to make everyone hate each other. In Germany whe have a game "Wichteln", where there is a pool of presents as well, but you just get assigned one at random and that's it (then you can trade with others if you really want to), this way you don't need to start hating each other for stealing their present.

    • @marialacona
      @marialacona 5 років тому +7

      Max Bruckner me and my family play this every year on Christmas, it’s really fun, we don’t hate each other and it is a great way to just enjoy the holidays and not expect a great gift because you don’t know what you will end up getting or if you are even going to like it!

      If you hate someone because they stole a Christmas present from you during white elephant then you need to get a life lol also, the game is NOT meant to be played with expensive ass gifts 😂 it’s supposed to be goofy kinds of gifts or cheap stuff below $30 - $20

    • @generallukeproductions
      @generallukeproductions 2 роки тому +4

      I would recommend not bringing an item that you really want. Because then you’ll get your hopes up, and after you most likely don’t walk away with that gift, you’ll be disappointed. It would be better to just keep the item you really want and buy something else of similar value to contribute to the pool of gifts.
