"I'm Barry the inventor who invented this" This is how y'all make an introduction take notes lads
You said y’all which made me think you were American but then you said lads. Where are you from lol
Me when I have to write a 3000 word essay
BS Handle Created no idea what you’re on about
I'm Bob the Builder who builded this.
TheOakster STEVEEEEEE
I like binging dragons den, while drinking my coffee, sitting in my chair and feel as if I were the sixt dragon, silently judging and criticizing their business model as well even though I have zero idea about how a company works
That’s the only way to watch Dragons den. Judge away
That's exactly why Al Gore invented the internet.
All you need is this: "Well first of all I think your valuation is completely absurd"
Same here
Welcome to the Den, Dragon.

Oh no worries! We all make some mistakes.
@@TheeLempicka 😂😂😂
He should be , contributing to all this overpopulation🤣
Yeah that was an actual existential crisis he's having there
back the the day when dragons den didn’t even have a lift yet lol.
They still don't have a lift, they just got 2 lift doors, lol.
You know it's not a real lift right lol. You're not even in it and its tricking you
Rastaman193 LMAOOOOO
It's a studio set with a fake lift.
Different studio single floor including 2 fake lift doors! Look at the transition between the studio floor to the "lift" to the other side! Timber floor fitted flush to steel treadplate on both sides!
I've never seen a Barry who looks so much like a Barry. He is a perfect little Barry. Incredible.
'Bazza' to those in the know.😁
Fun fact: no-one has ever met a baby named Barry.
The Barryiest Barry of them all.
The only other Barry that comes close is Barry from Eastenders and he wasn’t even a real Barry.
Chuckle brothers
The other perfect Barry was in en episode with water producing machine.
I was thinking “Why did they send this guy to pitch if there’s another guy? He’s gotta be better than this guy.” And then we met the other guy 😂
😂🤣😅
Hahaha 😂
LOL - Barry should have stayed downstairs
yeah. it was such a surprise to bring him out. I am surprised he didnt have a pewter mug filled with his finest dwarven ale.
LMAO. Peter sounds so young and gentle. taking his baby steps in the den.
Hes an original dragon?
@@stitcha123 he is. The last one.
7:37 peters response to the 600 mil valuation is so polite. fast forward 5 years and he would have ripped them a nice butt hole
@@stitcha123 This was the very first pitch in all of dragons den! So, these 5 are the original dragons.
@@bee1978 think after listening to a lot of total bullcrap from other "entrepreneurs", you will also do the same.......
"Actually you just lost my interest" wiped the smirk off his face real quick
Sure did!
At first he was scared and afraid .
Then he became slightly fearful with cockiness. 🐓
Besides stage fright, there seems to be a bit of a psychopathic trait.
Cue the 02:26 mark. 🤣💦
I love how everyone from the old series’ sound so out of breath from probably doing multiple takes of them walking up the stairs
No air conditioning or makeup except on the dragons haha
What?
I think that's the sound of someone shitting themselves getting picked up on the mic.
The really nervous ones get it bad
cus smoking was cheap
@@jakemcleod4983 j
Actually choked on my breathmint when he said 600 million
If u have big knockers i like to do the heimlich move
I assumed he would say like 10-50 million
Delusional
SAME
Why stop there, should have just said 1 billion, the sky is the limit with baby pram rockers
Love these earlier cringe episodes where people really weren't prepared and the camera just focuses, mercilessly, on their face for the entire duration
Disembowell 😂😂😂😂
This was the 1st pitch of the 1st episode in the 1st season.
Fun start.
LOL! Well put.
@@lost_poet_ On the contrary, they've decided to appear on a TV show to pitch their idea for my entertainment, I think it's perfectly reasonable to laugh at them if they mess up. He even mentions the exposure they're going to get from appearing on TV @ 10:38, he knows what he's doing ;)
I get what your saying, but without Peter and Debra it's just not as good if you ask me
"The baby dream machine...the business...the uh...Im a father of 3, ok? Gimme your money!" - Entrepreneur.
If you just say it 200 times eventually someone will invest
🤣🤣
THE FACE OF THE BUSINESS! :))) that's the funny part, he got hired to be the face.
To be fair Barry is even worse than Mr Freeze. Hyper aggressive and mega short sighted. If they had offered 15% from the get go they be making money.
Also the lead pitcher (Mr Freeze) despite getting stage fright, surely has pitched to boardrooms before, and can just talk to the simple workings of the product.
Excruciating pitch.
@@tobyhart8515 Mr Freeze isn't a pitch man. He said his background was in electrical product manufacturing. One guy invents, the other scales for production. He was just doubling as a pitch man.
Im Barry haig, the inventor who invented this invention that i, Barry haig invented using my skills as an inventor to invent this invention.
Whats the name again?
Yo Dawg, I heard you like inventions.....

Ah, the invention. The invention invented by Barry. The invention invented specifically by Barry the inventor. Barry's invention.
@@senbontorii2680 🤣💦
I feel so bad when they say "Let me start again," thinking they might edit that stuff out and make it look good, and then they use all the worst parts instead lol
"Im the inventor who invented this machine, the machine here...I decided to make it...over the years I made it." This is the best episode ever!
The most episode ever episoded!

Old mate couldn't organise a fart in a curry eating contest... "This man's recruited me to look after his best interest" I lost it at this point hahaha
i've watched so many of these dragons den clips, and i always read the comments, but this is the first time i've been compelled to reply to one. i laughed so hard at "Old mate couldn't organise a fart in a curry eating contest" that i was literally bent double over my bathroom sink in tears for around 3 minutes. the worst part is i can't even explain why i found it so hilarious. god bless you.
@@dinoflask I just shed a tear.
Hahaha 😂
I like how even though he messed up his introduction, they gave him a chance and waited patiently. That's so nice of them!!
I thinks it's more that they don't want to write off a potentially lucrative investment because of an entrepreneur's nerves. He was pausing and blanking before he got to anything about the product or the deal on offer.
Graham "This man's... this man's recruited me to look after his best interest and we're gonna do that aren't we?"
Camera pans to Barry's face to show him regretting hiring him.
Fun fact: They came back again a year or two later in the den with the same product. Same bunch, similar idiocy. So, yes. Barry invented his invention and the other marketer guy marketed his market.
The minute I see an entrepreneur making an entrance up the stair I know it's an ancient episode.
Dragon: “Isn’t valuing the company at £3million a bit rich”
Victim:”Nope coz its got your interest”
Dragon: “Actually you just lost my interest”
I’m dying, his face sank faster than the pitch😂😂😂
Plus the second dragon who bailed right then, too. Painful.
‘Victim’ 😂😅
Sank faster than the titanic is something Gordon Ramsay would say...
ELLIPSES Is Power / But the titanic sank very very slowly
But then he still made an offer and spoke a lot after that. Lol
The Business is he is a Father of three !
LOL
The business has no children.
Lol
😂 I can’t cope
I’m a comment and I’m a mother of 2
Entrepreneur: can we confer in quiet?
Dragon: sure
Audio guy: *cranks up volume on mics”
Hahaha love it
@Travel Crawl
Old Fashioned parenting works. Learn your facts before commenting bullshit.
Hahaha 😂
For those new to the show. They came back on the second season and were eviscerated. As predicted a competitor came along and got their product to market faster and on a larger scale. The lads went packing and lost everything
There's a bloke I know called Adzy in Sydney, Australia.. what's your point cobber?
The company is technically still around but their books show no activity in a decade. Plus their website hasn't been updated since George W Bush was President
@Adzy82 There`s a married couple that live next door to me . They`re called Chloé and John.
This comment section LMAO
I love how back in the day they’d help the nervous ones and encourage them
Fast forward to 2020 and they just sit there watching you suffer (except Jenny, she’s out)
Back in the day, Jenny was out before she knew she was even in
Hahahahhaahaha
I’m surprised that Jenny got on the show. When asked if she wanted to be on the show you’d expect her to respond “I’m out”
Even today they do help. When a woman almost fainted, they were understanding towards her. And Deborah is a lot nicer now compared to how she used to be
I think they do it purposefully to see how you react under pressure.
"When we had our first child....it was enough to put anyone off parenthood" 😂😂
Hahaha poor kid, I bet that comment still gets brought up today
Evan Davies walking towards the camera at the start was ever so slightly sinister...
That smile too Evan Davies for next joker
I felt like he snuck up on me and now follows me as I'm trying to get away from him.
Made me think of the Paul Whitehouse version
not just because he helped the tories draft the poll tax in the 80s when he was barely an undergrad.
Now there's a character that's better heard and not seen.
They went from gibbering nervous wrecks to really arrogant and cocky.
Liz Clegg pretty much like that feminist-led construction training company.
@@chinmayravindrashah its a self defence mechanism due to the embarassment of being nervous
@@thavambase6907 Great analysis, great pitch. I'll give you all the money.....but I want 40% of your sentence
Must have been that ''simple push-button operation''
@@chinmayravindrashah It wasn't feminist - it actually employed and trained men. And that was the problem - it had nothing unique about it...They actually criticized it for not being unique and working with women only - cause that would be something no-one else is doing.
“50% of something is better than a 100% of nothing” Han from fast and the furious
This guy is so out of breath was he running with that buggy all the way there
He needs to quit the ciggies
There's a big set of stairs in these old episodes. Since they switched to a different building that has a lift at the back, a lot fewer people seem or sound out of breath when pitching
MrSurprise 22 lmao it was just from walking up the stairs, needs to do some more exercise
The Dragon was spot on when he predicted those entreprueners are too precious with their business & will miss out on opportunities that a competitor will then steal. Sadly that's what happened.
Michal Walks what happened?
Who stole it?
I stole it
@@kamkilafwasru8679 Joseph stole it, then when his back was turned, i stole it from him
I have it now. Made my first billion 5 mins ago. It's a champagne and caviar lifestyle for me now. Enjoy yer fish and chips peasants!
Hi, I'm inventor, the inventor who Barryed this device.
I had 3 children in the process of getting this done. I am sorry.
😂😂
"After 3 to 5 years we will sell our business that we currently value at £3 million for £600 million"
I literally have no words...
reece callow lmao it’s even close to worth 3 million right now either
@@ChaceBonanno Its worth nothing now.
Peter of the last few years would have decked them for saying that...but this lot left them off very lightly.
Not just do they currently value it at 3 mil. They overvalue it at 3 mil, haha
Well you had a few it seems
"When we had our first child, it was enough to put anybody off Parenthood... it really was." that's sweet 💀
Their child: 👁👄👁

That man a sugar daddy😂😂
Ha ha, savage
I'm Barry the inventor who invented this... Pure gold!
Imagine hiring that geezer to run your business 😂
I think he needs a run around a track first...
Cut him some slack, he is nervous.
@Articuno Big man
@@MindSetReset If he was the inventor that would be an excuse but he seems to only be in the company to represent the inventor in situations like this. a conman with anxiety is a bad combo
He has the posture of a crooked broom. Sweats like a sprinkler. The inventor breathes like he has been smoking since birth. They were also pretty rude and obnoxious to be honest.
In 2018, the business was worth £45k. I don't know what it is now but probably not much more. It has changed its name also to natural sleep innovations Ltd. The dragons were right and they turned down a great offer
So no exit at 600M? ;p
45,000 yes. Possibly less now as you can't buy from their website
I read their accounts as the business had debts of £45000 in 2018 when I looked not a a positive value
Bet they've had more sleepless nights from fluffing that pitch and not securing a deal with the dragons than they ever had with their kiddies growing up, their valuation was nowt more than a pipe dream.......NO pun intended
One of the most entertaining episode I have seen. Raw. Unscripted. Uncut. Looks like a Tim and Eric spoof. Definitely gets my offer.
"I'm a father of 3....when we had the first....oh god, oh damn, no, no, no, IM A FATHER OF 3!!"
He realised he had children!
I'm a father of one, and therefore my business is only worth 200 million. Also my mate has invented something of which he is the inventor, just saying.
Hahahahaha awesome
😂😂😂😂
I almost forgot that John Malkovich was once a dragon.
I posted something similar on a different vid 😀
nice
@Bitterman John Malkovich, IMO, is the most overrated actor of all time. He is incapable of doing foreign accents. For example, just to name a few, he played a Frenchman in Dangerous Liaisons, an English Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in Mary Reilly, a South African in Disgrace and he never once broke from his own American accent. As far as his personal character is concerned, well he claimed he wanted to kill the British journalist Robert Fisk for reporting Israeli war crimes
THATS who he reminds me of!!
Hi, I'm Inventor, the inventor who invented this invention.
hahah
This comment deserves so much more likes and comments😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Barry the inventor that invented that thing should have pitched on his own.
Idk if he would've faired much better...poor geezer was pitching shares in his company like a raffle in a bingo hall
This entire pitch was a hell of a mess. Couldn't even tell who was leading it
Nobody. Nobody was leading it.
I think he’s had horrendous sleepless nights ever since that pitch 😬
xD
I love how the inventor who invented this was holding his product up to the camera for the interview at the end instead of just putting it down 😂
😂
5:56 this I Think is my favourite moment from any of these clips so far… The confidence that the manager says the line, completely shattered within a second
*Pitch starts at **16:02*
LOL!!
😂
The inventor, who looked like Onslow from Keeping Up Appearances, was hilarious, holding up a picture of the product during the pitch as advertising and again with the boxed product at the end 🤣
owwww nice
ONE LOOKS LIKE HE'S DYING AND THE OTHER ONE SOUNDS LIKE HE'S DYING...
Barry: "Hello."
Duncan: "Hi Barry."
Barry: "I'm Barry Egg, the inventor who invented this."
I like the way they saved him by asking questions after he flubbed the pitch... you can still have a good product if you screw up a pitch because of nerves.
When Tommy Pickles is all grown up and presents Dragons Den
i love this comment lol
I can't unsee this now lmao
Just so you know, he's the managing director of baby dream machine limited, just telling everyone in case you missed it
The best bit is Duncan shouting 'I'm out!' as soon as Doug's question about the £3M valuation was answered.
Wow why is he so nervous ? He's almost going to faint , it's like he's in court room facing murder charges .
@@groans4u419 most entrepreneurs do just fine if they aren't deifying the dragons like infants stating up at parents. Relax your ass
@@groans4u419 you would be nervous agree but he's way too much , it looks like he will almost pee his pants
He kept holding his nether regions like a naughty child who needs to go to the toilet.
Despite his nerves, Graham was behaving pretty sensibly. He did tell Barry that accepting it for 15% was a good idea given the coverage on the show. The pitch wasn't the best, but I think he did a good job of taking criticism.
****Update on the company. Production was halted a year after their appearance as the inventor got a full time gig in The Land Before Time
The real hero of the comments section
Brutal
WTF LOL
Savage 🤣😇🤣
As he walked up the stairs I cracked tf up 😂
That dragon next to Peter actually predicted they're future perfectly
7:40 Peter’s words had the guy reevaluating his whole existence 😂😂
When Duncan said ‘how much are you looking to sell for’ I was thinking he would say something ridiculous like £15m, but £600m!!! Keep dreaming son 🙈
The glare that guy gives Rachel when she says she's not investing is hilarious lol. (':
Director: This is awkward so just cut this first part out, yeah?
Editor: I'm sorry, did you say leave it all in?
Wow, the Dragons really changed after these early pitches. They became much more demanding and took control of the questioning rather than treating the pitchers as equals, and they very quickly started preferring underpitches to overpitches.
The production quality really improved too. Less background noise and better camera positioning. The camera operator here clearly didn't know where to point the thing, we were looking at so many closeups of things/people that didn't matter with blurred sweeps rather than cuts in-between.
The show probably had a smaller budget then they are on like season 18 now
don't care how good that device is, it'll never get that doll to sleep
Gave me a panic attack watching it.
Isn't empathy crippling at times?😂🙈
Ballantine's face at 08.45 is priceless, watching Little & Large make fools of themselves. I love these episodes where hubris comes into play, "who the gods would destroy, they first make mad(ly overconfident).
He reminds me of ‘sweaty man’ from the brilliant Harry and Paul Question Time sketch.
Oh, so he's a nervous wreck until he gets defensive. Then all nervousness dissappears. Common introvert behavior
The era of harsh lighting and closeups.
The days when it was a new edgy show-everything looked cold, sparse & barren. Before it became part of the establishment, very rich/warm colours/lighting, heavy grooming of the dragons before they start, a lift etc.
Much better era I stopped watching it when it became glamorised.
"I'm a father of three...so...very sorry" 😂
Barry ""I'm Barry the inventor who invented this"
Jenny "No you're not! You're that bloke from Hi-De-Hi, and for that reason i'm out!"
Ted and Spike in the Dragons Den
Wow, the first series looks and feels so different. Production value suddenly jumped... Maybe one of the Dragons invested in between seasons
MIGHTYBOOSCH198 yeah it was Jenny lolololol
Well this was over 10 years ago
This is 15 years ago back in 05

My daughter just finished a business degree at University.
I am like you but worse.
I have this feeling that I have absorbed business school from my daughter somehow. I have to contain myself sometimes. Lol. Fun and games.
Yields
"I'm a father of three and when we had our first child it was enough to put anyone off parenthood" so you freely admit your first child was enough to put you off parenthood, but then you decided to have two more? 🤣
I love these early episodes where they have to bring their props in themselves, it's so awkward 😁
Never seen the host look so confused and certain at the same time
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's those eyes
This comment made my day, o man that's funny hahahahah
I wouldn't trust that guy to manage my cats litter tray
Cult of the Red Barrel crying at this! 🤣🤣🤣
He’d certainly make sure it’s full of crap 😂
I get the very strong impression some business people do no rehearsing, AT ALL, before going into the den.
I started cracking up when they were conferring between themselves and the inventor started getting nervous about having to pay people to run the business saying to the other will there be anything left etc.
They selling it for £600 million and he's worried about a few salaries lol
DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL DELUSIONAL
“The sad thing is that the product will happen, it is it won’t happen for them”
"This episode was so early in the show that Deborah wasn't even a dragon yet, and for that reason I am out!"
-J to E to the double N Y
Finally this is up. God, im glad they switched it to having set hands set up the products.
It was a great little idea but I think Barry thought it was the next coming of Jesus! FFS bro, if you gave away 15-20% of your company and got some dragons on board it wouldn't kill you and they would be an absolute asset!
They looked like a couple of bloody crack heads trying to sell an expensive TV! XD
very hilarious lol
@celvester allison - Yeah but crack heads also rarely end up with something decent to sell, so they were flustered and thought they could get millions!
It was just the way they were sweating and acting, the dude looking at Barry "Let me talk, let me talk", oozing desperation... XD
He’s sweating like Rolf Harris in mother care!
UK Paranormal Study 😂
‘I’m the managing director of Baby Dream Machine Limited’
All dragons: WE KNOW IT ALREADY!!
Great product, but wrong guys to take it forward.
15% for $150,000 would have been a great deal! That's a $1 Million evaluation on a product with ZERO sales.
The American dragon has a really nice mannerisms and seems really respectful.
"I'm Barry the inventor who invented this"
HAHAHA
Barry looks like he could have been a stand up comic at Blackpool!
He looks like Vernon from Heartbeat.
That posture tho 7:42
Feels like they decided that they wanted to do a "Fools and Horses" parody on TV instead of actually pitch a business.
Doug was the closest to investing when the man said “baby dream machine” and “I’m a father of three”
Entrepreneur: We're offering 5% of the business.
Doug: So you're a valuing a business that doesn't even exist yet at $3 million....
Entrepreneur: Well we've got your interest!
Doug: No actually you just lost my interest
Big Sad
The same people who sweat here are the ones who don’t hire us at their companies because we be too nervous during the interview
😂
"This man's recruited me to look after his best interests, and that's what we're going to do, aren't we?"
*Replies* We Certainly Are.
*Thinks* I have _got_ to get myself a new guy.
Came back again after a year or two, with the same basket case of the “best interest” guy. You’d think getting insulted and ridiculed on national TV would make you sane...
@@chinmayravindrashah Reminds me of the lawyers from Charles Dickens' Bleak House. "We are doing _everything_ we can. We have our _shoulders_ to the _wheel."_
I didn't know Jen Barber from The IT Crowd was a Dragon.
You didn't know that? Well, well, well... you must feel rather foolish now, you witless twerp...
She made her millions on the Abracada-bra.
The manager is sweating bullets .. why would anyone hire this guy as a manager?? He seems like he's about to keel over at any moment.. then I saw Barry and it all made sense
For the life of me, I cannot imagine going on television with an innovative new product before securing a patent for it.
