      @@lm5848 that's pretty much all iterations of this show in a nutshell. dragons den UK, shark tank - you'll notice they all try to break these people down in most deals and make presenters think their company will go belly up without these investors. then one or two investors can go in for the kill and ask for like 25-50% of the business. shark tank is definitely the worst for this and they're way more overt about pressuring people into accepting deals prematurely and baiting them into not listening to other offers.
