This is so true! They never let you go, even when you say you aren't interested. I was at the mall once and passed by a kiosk that was selling some hair straighteners (I have very curly hair, but I hate using heat on it) so when they offered to straighten my hair if I bought one I said no politely and kept walking. It was a long kiosk, so I took about three steps before the person walked up to me and was like "Are you sure? You hair would look soo nice straight" and she tried to grab my hair and I freaked out and ran.
I also hate charity collectors, if they wanted some coins or a few notes sure fine but they want me to sign up for a year long charity donation which I can't do. One time a women told me about a charity I told her I couldn't afford it but she kept on insisting and when I try to walk away she kept on blocking me and wouldn't let me leave.
What is it with the hair straightening people!? My hair is quite straight and I had gone to the trouble of curling it and then this guy pushes me into having it straightened. I was terrified to walk by that kiosk for months afterward and now avoid eye contact with mall kiosk people at all costs.
A tear of sorrow... A tear of pity... A tear of fear... A tear of a touched heart... A tear of laughter... This sketch makes me cry a rainbow of tears!
This is where the inverse salesman law comes into play. The richer the salesman, the less aggressive and lazier they become, counterbalancing their success back to zero.
Yatagarasu4444 they probably won’t drop back to zero. Count how much money a successful career as a salesman would have accumulated before he slacks off.
In my psychology class, we learned that the (successful) mall kiosk people actually use psychology. For instance, at 2:02, when Jason offers Adam free lotion, he is actually using at least 2 ways taught in my class. The first is that when someone gives you something, you want to return the favor; it's like how if someone invites you to their party, then you feel obligated to invite them to your next party. The second is that once a small thing has been entrusted, a person is much more likely to allow a bigger thing. An example I know of this is when one of my friends, whom I will call Andy, was touching my other friend's (I'll call him Ross) unicycle. At first Ross told Andy not to even touch the unicycle, but after Andy continued to touch it and even went as far as to get onto it, Ross began coaching him on how to balance on it! So Jason used actual psychologically--proven techniques to get Adam to buy the hand lotion. I did hear somewhere that Matt has a background in psychology. Is that true?
Heck, Walmart isn't even safe anymore. I was once doing some grocery shopping for literally a few things, and they had this dude by the electronics department setting everybody up with a Dish plan. He saw me, and asked if I was interested in one. I was stone-faced, made no eye contact, and kept on walking. I said "No." He then said, "it would only just take a minute." I then said, "I don't have a minute. I need to be somewhere." Heart of stone, people. I'm sharing this comment in hopes somebody can learn and remember some of these lines.
Something similar happened to me. My mom and I were shopping and we walked put of a store and some women near us just handed us some panflet and gestured for us to read it, talking about some useless product we didnt need, my mom opened the panflet as started fake reading as she walked on, I followed and once we had gotten far enough away she just threw it into a recycling bin.
Lol i work at a kiosk and none of those would stop me, i have sold to many def people. You guys act like such victims, you don’t get mad when you see a subway commercial trying to sell you sandwiches, theres no difference.
This is the perfect plot for a horror movie. I'm thinking people locked in a mall where a kiosk salesman was killed years ago and his ghost is haunting the dark, silent halls of the mall for years afterwards, and he's trying to sell them stuff all night long.
as a kiosk employee, I can assure you that: I'm just sitting there doing nothing I literally don't give af if you buy something or not I just want to go home
The second you slid under the gate my heart dropped. I have nightmares of people coming into my workplace right at closing and refusing to leave. 😭 Even though this one hit differently today, I love your sketches! (I may also use the aggressive salesman tactic for those people who come in right at closing, actually 🤔)
Another Leo kiosk sketch would be amazing. This was one of the best sketches ever because it rang so true to life even though it was so ridiculously over-dramatic. Most Studio C sketches will get a little chuckle out of me, this one had me in stitches.
Izzy’s Crazy Life if you are that busy that you can’t spend like 1 minute to finish watching a video, you seriously need to rework your schedule, that’s not healthy
One time I made eye contact and I didn't escape in time. He made me sit in this chair for 30+mins while he straightened my hair. My friend and her mom just laughed at me the entire time because I COULDN'T GET AWAY
My husband started telling me about a mall kiosk lady yesterday who had him covered in lotion and then said "which one do you like? They're only $70" And I immediately pulled this video up🤣🤣 This isn't just comedy, it's a warning video
This Kiosk mall is nothing compare to T-Mobile employee. There was a T-Mobile guy came to my store and asked me to provide name, DOB, and telephone numbers, SSN so he could check if I qualify for discount. I insisted him that I could not provide my personal informations, but he kept insisting me there was nothing wrong with that. Finally, I could only escape him when I went inside and lock middle door.
I was thinking at the end when Matt screemed there should be something that says "To be continued" who agrees with me that they should make the next part of this? Well I love your vids 😁😁😁😁😜😁😁😁😁
I loved it, I watched it again & again... so that I noticed a video cut in 03:25 : Natalie still sitting beside Whit while she should be standing enjoying her liquid nail shinner! I wonder what happened wrong made them cut it! Jason's chasing scene was golden!! One of my favored Studio C skets.
this reminds me of the time I was selling cookies at the mall in at a kiosk, my friend came up with the weirdest song ever. "Girl scout cookies, nice 'n sweet, utterly delicious and super cheap. 4 dollars a box, they are so yummy, they want to be, sitting in your tummy! So skip the lotion guy, in the next yard, our cookies are way better, and. they're ours." and at the end I would just yell "SLAY!" welcome to my GS troop XD
It's so TRUE!!!! The hilarious part is, once my Mom and I were in a mall, and we were stopped for the same reason Matt and his friends were, for at least twenty minutes, only to be bribed into buying HAND LOTION! Studio C is so clever to come up with this!
this is my favorite studio c ever!!!!!!! my favorite part is 3:06 "dont do it natalie thats just water with glitter in it!!" "i refer him!!!!!!!!!!" "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and the guys face, (epic music) he pulls out the bottles of lotion like weapons or boomerangs or something. XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Had a Seacret Dead Sea Products dude jump out of nowhere and wrap his arms around me and hold me to him. He let go, stepped back, and lifted up a lotion!
I have nightmares about people coming in to my workplace at closing and refusing to leave 😅 But aggressive salesman tactics may help me going forward! 😁
This has got to be one of my favorite ones yet! So hilarious. This is exactly how I act around kiosk people- DON'T MAKE EYE CONTACT, AVERT THE EYES, LOOK TO THE WINGS!XD
I avoid them through the wonderful lessons my cat teaches me. Try to dart by and if they get too close, hiss at them.
Omg😂😂😂😂
That is the best Comment I have seen in all my years of youtube. ROFL
That could not be more accurate and beautiful
Ah yes. But you must also put in earphones, even though you are listening to no music whatsoever.
Chessy rrrrrrrrrdfccvxbgggyuh

Your mistake was being polite. They're not going to be polite so why should you? Tell them where they can stick it, that works for me.
What is it with the hair straightening people!? My hair is quite straight and I had gone to the trouble of curling it and then this guy pushes me into having it straightened. I was terrified to walk by that kiosk for months afterward and now avoid eye contact with mall kiosk people at all costs.
The Learned Soldier no it’s good to be polite
I love Matt's dramatic slide behind the candy!
Yes! I love that so much!
Iconic
The more useless the product the more agressive the salesmen!!
Why does this seem so logical?
cause kiosk salesmen are truly relentless, Kira. You must learn the ways of a kiosk salesman.
Because if the product is useful, the people will go to the kiosk.
Probably because they're desperate to force their way into the larger economy even if they're not likely to do so.
IT'S MALL DARWINISM!!!
*BECAUSE IT’S KIOSK DARWINISM!*
“Hello sir I am a woman-” me communicating with absolutely everyone
Honestly same lmao
FLIRTATIOUS... I SEEE....
A tear of sorrow...
A tear of pity...
A tear of fear...
A tear of a touched heart...
A tear of laughter...
This sketch makes me cry a rainbow of tears!
LOL!
emmie90 I'd love it if I could get a free loofah!
LamanKnight wha?
They should make a sequel
In real life, a salesman this unrealistically good, would make so much $$$, he'd own the whole mall by now.
XD

@@HellsRaven4444 This is assuming that they are content with their profits
workhardism He *is* the mall, why do you think he was able to get past the metal door?
"The more useless the product, the more aggressive the salesman!"
#firstrelevantpost
"It's kiosk Darwinism!"
XD
"Hey man! I am a woman"
How I start to ask someone out.... 😂

“No Natalie thats just water with glitter in it!”
What is this a parody of
This was literally more intense than that Treasure Hike thing...

Foot-in-the-door phenomena
Heather Toomey Here's the trick; move quickly and if they approach, literally flip them off. They're not going to be polite, so why should I?
Jesus loves you so much
That's, actually pretty cool
Good thing people tend to be more focused than the sellers like, and step over these high-school mindgames.
I got an ad on this video. it was a Studio C ad. Lol
me too
Ally Elise lol
Jack-O- Braden me too i got thisame thing
Trickiii Lena me too
REALLY?!?

"If i don't make it, you can have my 50% off savings card."
"Don't say that. You're gonna be fine. But I'll keep this."
Zoe Beck I thought it was 15%
yeah. "Dont go! its not worth it!
"theres a 2 for 1 sale on skinny jeans."
"its totally worth it"
XD
Zoe Beck lol
Zoe Beck its said it was 15%
Easiest way to get past them is go in a group and act like you are deaf and sign to each other.
also if you can't act deaf you can just by a box then move on with your life (stay in a group i repeat stay in a group
Krash Rhodes Or pretend you don't speak English
Lol i work at a kiosk and none of those would stop me, i have sold to many def people. You guys act like such victims, you don’t get mad when you see a subway commercial trying to sell you sandwiches, theres no difference.
Wait- what f he can use sign language... dun dun DUN
One of the best studio c sketch!!
I agree
This was very.... Intresting... And AWESOMELY FUNNY! I loved when Matt rolled under that door in the end. So awesome.
I Think he can sense how poor i am...
Natalie's attempt to stall was reminiscent of the 'Flirting Academy'. I love their subtle callbacks.
This is the perfect plot for a horror movie. I'm thinking people locked in a mall where a kiosk salesman was killed years ago and his ghost is haunting the dark, silent halls of the mall for years afterwards, and he's trying to sell them stuff all night long.
Netflix presents... TALES FROM THE MALL WITH NO NAME!
as a kiosk employee, I can assure you that:
I'm just sitting there doing nothing
I literally don't give af if you buy something or not
I just want to go home
Sarah Belle I'm guessing you don't get paid by commission?
There are the pushy salespeople type
I sense a raise and promotion coming your way.
This has got to be one of my all-time favorites
I love the way he says “but it’s free”
I just talk to myself. Almost guarantees getting past them.
+Aaron O'neil You should just be yourself, talking to yourself makes you look like you do not have self confidence to confront a salesman
antonio ujueta
I do talk to myself, quite regularly. It just happens to be an effective way of avoiding people calling you over to sell stuff.
Or close my eyes 😝
Dani Kopa
Could work, though perhaps not entirely the most effective method in a public area while on the move. Though that would look amusing.
+Aaron O'neil lol yeah
The second you slid under the gate my heart dropped. I have nightmares of people coming into my workplace right at closing and refusing to leave. 😭 Even though this one hit differently today, I love your sketches!

"Roger that Gold Leader!" Love the Star Wars reference! 🤓
gold leader? star wars reference?
yep(;
thats not a star wars reference.....
+Tiano Annunziata um yeah, it very much is. Gold leader, aka Dutch vaders. Google him
Its Jon Vander (aka Dutch Vander, but you still butchered that last name)
I knew I recognized it for somewhere!
I had never watched all the way to the very end before. That's hilarious!
Always watch the whole video 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
C dog some people who have lives don’t have time to watch the whole video...;
Izzy’s Crazy Life if you are that busy that you can’t spend like 1 minute to finish watching a video, you seriously need to rework your schedule, that’s not healthy
how to get past them: start talking to yourself and laughing hysterically with a crazy look in your eyes
the dude with no hands is the worst DJ ever!! (Anyone get the reference?)
+Melody Fussell nope
Record scratch ?
+Nay Lin Htet Nay Lin yep
+Nay Lin Htet Nay Lin yup
+Melody Fussell only thing he does is scratching
0:12
"Guys, get down!"
I LOVE YOU MATT
MATT NOOOOOO!!!!!!!
"Dont go! its not worth it!
"theres a 2 for 1 sale on skinny jeans."
"its totally worth it"
XD
please do a sequel of this! It cracks me up every time and it's so true! 😂
I think this is now my favorite Studio C.
One time I made eye contact and I didn't escape in time. He made me sit in this chair for 30+mins while he straightened my hair. My friend and her mom just laughed at me the entire time because I COULDN'T GET AWAY
This has got to be one of my favorite studio c videos
james in another sketch with no hands again
This was such a moving documentary! RIP, Jeremy. #NeverForget
There should totally be a sequel to this sketch!
I went back to watch this after watching the second one. How have I not seen this before?!
My husband started telling me about a mall kiosk lady yesterday who had him covered in lotion and then said "which one do you like? They're only $70"
And I immediately pulled this video up🤣🤣 This isn't just comedy, it's a warning video
I especially love the dramatic music they play, 'tis amazing.
Jeremy's death stare at 2:15, ROFL!!!!!
Dude, you guys are way better thn SNL, man... Keep it up!
This Kiosk mall is nothing compare to T-Mobile employee. There was a T-Mobile guy came to my store and asked me to provide name, DOB, and telephone numbers, SSN so he could check if I qualify for discount. I insisted him that I could not provide my personal informations, but he kept insisting me there was nothing wrong with that. Finally, I could only escape him when I went inside and lock middle door.
"I think he senses I'm poor" Ohhh, that's why kiosk salesmen never target me when I'm alone.
"Roger that Gold leader". Yes. Just yes.
"Use the Force,Luke."
Wait,Luke was Red Five
The trueness of this is AMAZING!!
The camera angles are awesome! The music just makes the sketch even more suspenseful! Mallory, you did a amazing job directing this sketch!
favorite youtube channel!
This is the best thing i have seen all day
Witney: Hello credit card debt
Me: (suffocates of laughter)
This is one of the best sketches ever! And I'm still watching it 2 years later.
my favorite sketch!!!!!!!!!
OMG this was an amazing sketch. Love the over-the-top antics and drama. So perfect
I was thinking at the end when Matt screemed there should be something that says "To be continued" who agrees with me that they should make the next part of this? Well I love your vids 😁😁😁😁😜😁😁😁😁
+Dani Kopa Nah, first rule of comedy is to not milk a joke. Do it once, get a positive response, do something different.
+Rinus Luijk unless its captain literally
+Howzieky yeah if caption literally came it would be perfect
+Dani Kopa there should be a second part .
+Hoshimi .Tskino yeah, a second part 😀😀😀😀
I loved it, I watched it again & again... so that I noticed a video cut in 03:25 : Natalie still sitting beside Whit while she should be standing enjoying her liquid nail shinner! I wonder what happened wrong made them cut it!
Jason's chasing scene was golden!!
One of my favored Studio C skets.
That was at the mall close to me 😂
washington mall next to Portland
This has to be my one of my most favorite Studio C videos!!!!!!!! I Love These Videos!!!
0:37 Captain James Hook
the old studio c videos are the best !!!!!!
um happy i subscribed to this,,,,, clean comedy
+Ali Shah Indeed.
+Inebriatd They won't.
Inebriatd
They still haven't.
You must be fun at parties.
The cinematography of this video is great!
This has honestly been the first time I was terrified of something on a screen...
I would love a a sequel!
This sketch is Sssssssssssooooooooooooooo true it happens every time we go to the mall
Go beavs!
Matt scream makes everything amazing.
God bless!!!!!!! He loves you with all His heart and He wants to have a relationship with you!!!!!!
Mall Kiosk sequel!!!!! It was one of the best!! Go Jason!!
Dude the ad was about studio c!!
Cherylyn Whetten yyyeeeaaaa
The scream at the end was perfect
I love how you guys made it seem so much like a war movie 😅
This is my all time favorite studio c
this reminds me of the time I was selling cookies at the mall in at a kiosk, my friend came up with the weirdest song ever.
"Girl scout cookies, nice 'n sweet,
utterly delicious and super cheap.
4 dollars a box, they are so yummy,
they want to be, sitting in your tummy!
So skip the lotion guy, in the next yard,
our cookies are way better, and. they're ours."
and at the end I would just yell "SLAY!" welcome to my GS troop XD
I love the music that plays when James is walking away hahaha omg
I just now get the "i dont even have hands" joke
I love the music.
Leo: (pops up in front of me) Lotion?
Me: Ah! (Blows attack whistle) Stranger danger! Stranger danger! (Runs away as fast possible)
It's so TRUE!!!! The hilarious part is, once my Mom and I were in a mall, and we were stopped for the same reason Matt and his friends were, for at least twenty minutes, only to be bribed into buying HAND LOTION! Studio C is so clever to come up with this!
This actually almost happened to me it hurt my heart to say no and walk away.
I hope they make a second one!! This one was AWESOME!!!! One of my all-time favorites!!!
this is my favorite studio c ever!!!!!!! my favorite part is 3:06 "dont do it natalie thats just water with glitter in it!!" "i refer him!!!!!!!!!!" "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and the guys face, (epic music) he pulls out the bottles of lotion like weapons or boomerangs or something. XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
The man’s pitch is like watching another studio c video.
“It’s almost 1 o clock in the morning, I should go to bed...eh, one more.”
Had a Seacret Dead Sea Products dude jump out of nowhere and wrap his arms around me and hold me to him. He let go, stepped back, and lifted up a lotion!
Amber Gardner Ugh, how creepy! I'm so sorry.
Amber Gardner Funny. I had a Dead Sea product assault of my own. My daughter was with me and said, afterward, "well, that was weird and stupid..."
Amber Gardner Omgosh, me too!
That's literally just illegal, what the f**k?
please report this to police because it's assault
This is one of my favorite sketches.
3:16 Natalie face
I know wasn't it awesome
lol
MudkipMan 75 lol
MudkipMan 75 xxx
XD
One of the most intense, and truly relatable sketch I've seen.
plus this is my favorite sketch
Leo is one of the most haunting character ever
The comedy, the drama, the suspense...will he make it? It's so over the top, I love it.
I love that they went to the mall specifically for that store, and they arrive a couple minutes before it closes🤔
I have nightmares about people coming in to my workplace at closing and refusing to leave 😅 But aggressive salesman tactics may help me going forward! 😁
This was my favorite!! Especially the very end with the cat!!!!!
This has got to be one of my favorite ones yet! So hilarious. This is exactly how I act around kiosk people- DON'T MAKE EYE CONTACT, AVERT THE EYES, LOOK TO THE WINGS!XD
Ah the golden age of studio C
The way Matt slides XD
studio c is one of the best creations on earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This has happened to me! Except they were selling hand scrub. Now I pretend to be on the phone when I walk through the mall.
this is one of my favorite scetches
Never have I ever watched something that reminded me of the Vietnam War
Guys get down! 'Slides way to far and army crawls back' LOL!
I just reply in Esperanto and keep walking. I don't know much of it, but know one really speaks it and they can't tell the difference anyway lmao
