@@janlassen6101 I didn't say they'd invest, I meant there would be a significant change in attitude on their part towards an environmentally minded business.
If he wasn't interested in making money, he went on the wrong show. Since he is clearly not a businessman, the fact that he went to water companies at all shows that he's not, he should simply patent the idea and then license it out. The better money it makes, the more households it will go to.
Yep, if you see the edition in 2022 and 2023 everyone is super polite. I wonder if the producers allow in the Den some unprepared ptiches so Dragons can play a bit...
Crazy how times have changed...saving water is such a priority now its crazy. Felt sorry for the man, he was defensive but that's because he had passion and it got misenterpretated. I don't know what research was available at the time but I feel if he had suggested future figures of population and how much water we have globally, could've ended differently.
@@derlangsame7813 yeah, but fast forward some years and if they went now on national television saying that they couldnt care less about the environment and our resources it wouldnt bode well for them. this guy was ahead of his time.

Doug Richard. He's one of the worst dragons ever. Invested in very few entrepreneurs, bad attitude, and then in real life he turned out to be a creep (hooked up with a 17 year old "woman" when he was 57).
@@wvrjl actually no, making money was not the source of every innovation Also, it's possible to make money and still have a social good in mind. Go look up mercantilism.
The dragons here basically proved they have one dimensional social skills. None of these people were prickly, just misunderstood and didn’t fit their stereotypical paradigm
They only do a few of these a day and it’s an all day event, then that is condensed to the 30 minutes an episode. So the dragons “dishing it out” is after several hours of listening to something they know is bullshit
I love how it is acceptable for the dragons to insult the pitch giver all they want but get all offended when somthing is said back to them. True definition of stuck up deluded rich people 👍
One of the things I love most about the franchise is when the "entrepreneurs" tell the venture capitalists how businesses are run. If there's ONE job description that knows how businesses are run, I'm guessing it would be someone who has the job of investing in business growth. Would you think? Keep your egos in your car.
Totally agree with Peter Jones about the last guy. If I was pitching a business to a group of multi-millionaires, I'd be visiting a tailor first for a perfectly cut suit! Even if I couldn't afford that, I would at least hire one for the day. I can't believe how many people show up looking like they're heading straight to the pub for a pint afterwards.
I could. He's asking them to invest money and returns are what is important to them. Right or wrong, that is the situation. If she has the impression that he's not all that bothered by the business side, the side that will make this a worth while investment, then that's the right question to ask.
I've watched dozens of these clips recently and have yet to see Rachael or Doug invest in anything, even Jenny has made a few investments! Even so that last bloke was a right buffoon.
@@jarednil69 I haven't come accross those episodes yet however Jenny invested in five so potentially made more investments than these two combined. I think some are a little harsh on Jenny IMHO.
The first guy was really good. Save water and save consumers, hotels and several other businesses money. It's do-it-yourself install. It's amazing. How did the dragons not get that?? Wow bizarre. They weren't very nice or polite either. They were even vulgar.
Yes, money makes things happen but there's absolutely no reason to denigrate the pitch-maker personally. The other thing I have yet to see from any of the dragons, is for at least someone to say, it's a good product and a good design and even though it will take time and effort to sell, I believe it will do so in course of time, and for that reason I'm going to make an offer.
The first pitch was right product, wrong time. If he had a patent on that I guarantee that this day in age the government would give him all kinds of grants and the water companies would be interested in selling it.
Interesting how the Pitcher's fragile ego sometimes gets them in trouble, they could have sold the product with some charm and interesting dialogue instead of getting defensive, also ive seen multiple episodes where the right dragon was missing for the pitch, I bet Deborah would have invested in this since its environmental and once I saw a Baby product, but that episode Touker was missing
Btw the reason they refused the 2nd pitch is crap. Nobody in an actual investment opportunity actually has to remember the figures. They just have them written down. The only reason people have to remember them is only cause this is a TV show and not the real deal. I am sure not many people know that after the show is done it's not like they just give the money and that's it. They actually have to go through a due diligence process and verify the infos and actually sign the contracts. I am sure that there are LOADS of contracts that do not make the end even though on the tv show a dragon seems to have invested, just cause of the due diligence process failing. That is the real moment when numbers are consulted and I'll tell you what, nobody has to remember them. In fact they want to see the figures written by the accountant. Nobody is going to trust you saying some random numbers and claiming to remember. So the dragons looking so irritated for the entrepreneurs not remembering the figures is absolute nonsense. They all know the numbers will be verified after the show ends.
MOST TOILETS NOW OPERATE IN A INTERFLUSH SYSTEM AND ITS GREAT. IF YOU NEED MORE OR LESS YOU ADJUST ACCORDINGLY. THE BUTTON PUSH SYSTEM. Dragons SO wrong her
Culture clash? It’s been available in the States since the 1990’s. I remember so many people and hotels having it. Except this guy’s version is unnecessarily complicated.
Duncan: “David you’re very aggressive “
David: Aggressively tries to save water.
like Ducncan hasnt ever made a snappy quiuck remark FFS

What you talking 'bout, B Willis?
First guy was 100% ahead of his time. He’d have 5 offers if he’d pitched it today
If he could get his pitch right
You’re right
Haha not bcoz he was right or ahead of time just bcoz companies in west get woke and lose their mind
@@JL-gf3yc Yeah bcoz we live where most of the companies and people lose their mind
First guy had an awesome idea, and he was treated like crap. And what a miserable P.O.S he was @ 7:45! :-O
If the first guy pitched to the dragons today they'd be falling over themselves to say what an important idea it was. Funny how times change.
Most toilets today have 2 buttons, and if not, just put in Half a Brick or something in the tank or more to waste less water.
@@janlassen6101 I didn't say they'd invest, I meant there would be a significant change in attitude on their part towards an environmentally minded business.
Agree, but only cause these topics are important today for making money. If it was something else, they would have been all over that issue etc.
@@00Kuja00 oh for sure. Both Debbie and Peter have changed radically from earlier seasons to now.
The flush system now has a short flush and a long flush. Problem solved

Good man, got a lot of respect for him. Good to see him stand his ground, nicely done Jonathan!
no need for Interflush in Australia, by regulation since 1992 all toilets here have to have both Half-Flush and Full-Flush buttons
My father is just like the first guy and from Yorkshire. You can't tell them anything, they know best
I couldn't believe that she asked if saving the damn planet was more important than making money. 🤦

Interflush creator must learn the art of courteousness, especially in front of his potential investors.
Couldn’t work with this guy. But he’s right. I do look to make sure it’s clean…..
Self note: nice learning from @15:00 ish pitch of creative media agency
I've watched dozens of these clips recently and have yet to see Rachael or Doug invest in anything, even Jenny has made a few investments!

How is that 'clever'?
Just seems petty in my book
This didnt age well!!!. What a great product!! People DO care and WOULD use it!

Nah, dragons were 1000% correct, activist products are not investable
10:24 & 13:33 - "Why are you getting frustrated?" REALLY???!!! You don't know your BASIC numbers!!! WHY wouldn't you know your numbers for year-end???

I don’t reckon that Yank has ever been nice to any person ever on earth
lowering the fkow reduces the ability of waste removal... requiring a plumber.
So what exactly was fiery about the second pitch???
It just caused the dragons to erupt lol, well Hilary mostly
The behaviour of the dragons was unusually harsh by English standards.
First guy was years ahead of his time. Saving water and electricity prices in the highest inflation of all time, everyone would have one. Shame
Leaving the lid up when flushing sends the aerosolized contents into the air. Bad idea.
There's a lot of good in making money
Exactly

Sewage water is filtered then put back in to the system
All comments are about the first guy cos everyone finished their dinners and turned it off before the next one
Who else loves Doug
Doctors even recommend that you check your stools before flushing I genuinely believe sometimes that these guys have alterior motives.
David was right though.
2:31 😂😂
The first and last guy are on one end of the spectrum
I just love hilary blanket
if he was smart he'd just be nicer
well the water board wont be interested there in it to make money not use less
