1
Today, I'm building a secret 7 -Eleven in my room and hiding it from my twin brother.
2
He says we don't look like twins anymore because of my recent weight gain.
3
So he started a 90 -day fitness challenge to help me lose weight so that we can look like twins again.
4
It's only been a week and I've been struggling with eating all these healthy foods.
5
On top of that, Alan is always watching me and he won't let me cheat on my diet.
6
Alex?
7
Mmm, okay.
8
I needed a way to eat all my favorite snacks without him finding out.
9
That's why I'm building a secret 7 -eleven in our house.
10
But first I need to find a perfect location
11
Think I found it
12
Oh my god check it out check it out
13
This is perfect, but I need to make a bigger hole so I can fit in there
14
If you're wondering why I'm not going about this more quietly
15
Alan is actually at the gym right now
16
He thinks I'm missing today's workout because I pretended to be sick this morning
17
So we also have our friends joining us for the 90 -day body transformation challenge
18
and we're going really hard today because whoever loses the most weight gets to have a cheat meal.
19
Whoa, the house is happy to eat me!
20
Meanwhile, back at home, I was making some real progress.
21
Time for the grand entrance.
22
Good thing I pretended to be sick today because I'm about to turn this into the best 7 -Eleven ever.
23
I'd barely gotten started on my secret 7 -Eleven and Alan was already starting to get suspicious.
24
So Alex mentioned that he's sick today and I don't believe him.
25
So I sent
26
Tanner home to spy on Alex just now to make sure he's not cheating on his diet
27
So this room is gonna have everything that a 7 -eleven has every snack
28
and drink you can think of slushy machines and even some banned stuff
29
You can only find in special 7 -elevens.
30
I just have to make sure I hide it all from Alan Alex Alex!
31
Alex!
32
Alex!
33
Alex!
34
Alex!
35
Alex where you at dude?
36
Alex?
37
What are you doing?
38
What is this?
39
I thought you were supposed to be sick!
40
Okay hear me out.
41
I'm sick of this healthy diet crap.
42
I'm doing this secret 7 -Eleven so I can eat whatever I want.
43
Whatever I want.
44
Whatever I want.
45
Count me in.
46
I'm tired of eating that healthy crap too.
47
But if you're trying to build a secret room, a big hole in the wall isn't very secret.
48
Well, it's not very secret yet.
49
By the time we're done with it, no one will ever be able to tell there was a hole here.
50
And now that we know where the secret 7 -Eleven was going to be built,
51
it was time to go to real 7 -Eleven and get some ideas and supplies.
52
We're outside of real 7 -Eleven.
53
We're going to go inside and figure out how to build our 7 -Eleven.
54
And eat some snacks.
55
I haven't had junk food in a week, and there's so much food here.
56
I'm sorry, but I don't feel a little bit of pain in that food.
57
We're going to need a lot of junk food and snacks, obviously.
58
We're also going to need some shelves to hold the snacks.
59
We're definitely going to need a lot of drinks, ice cream, and refrigerators to store them in.
60
This is about to cost a lot of money.
61
You can't have a 7 -Eleven without this, or we can fill it up with spicy wings, too.
62
We've got to have our own slushy machines, too.
63
You know what?
64
Maybe let's not do that.
65
Tanner?
66
After taking more notes and buying a lot of snacks, it was time to head home and start building.
67
I think we're good.
68
Meanwhile, Alan was taking his 90 -day fitness challenge a little too seriously.
69
Come on, Alan, you got this.
70
Go up, go up, one more, one more.
71
Come on, one more, yeah, get going.
72
You want to stop talking?
73
Get going.
74
Get going.
75
Come on, one more.
76
One more.
77
All right.
78
Hey, what are you doing?
79
I said one more, not me!
80
Keep talking!
81
Stop!
82
Alan's obsession with the fitness challenge gave us the time we needed to start customizing the 7 -Eleven.
83
So we're finally back home and check out all the snaps we bought.
84
And now it's finally time to transform this room into a 7 -Eleven.
85
I'll start painting.
86
Tanner, you go buy some more 7 -Eleven props. On it.
87
So all 7 -Elevens have the unique red, green, and orange stripes.
88
And right now, I'm going to paint that on all the walls.
89
And I'm taking this seriously because I want this to look like the best 7 -Eleven in the world.
90
Woo!
91
This looks sick, guys.
92
I honestly didn't know I was this good at painting.
93
So far, things were looking good.
94
And Alan was so into his workout that he seemed to have forgotten that
95
Tanner never came back.
96
Three, two, one.
97
Keep going!
98
That was a pound tire right there!
99
Um, let's see how
100
Tanner's shopping went.
101
So I just got back from buying a bunch of stuff from a 7 -Eleven warehouse.
102
This is gonna be perfect for our secret 7 -eleven room.
103
Let's start unloading it.
104
Alex, check it out.
105
Tanner's back!
106
I got that situation you were talking about.
107
Oh my god!
108
And a 7 -eleven sign.
109
Turning it on in 3, 2, 1.
110
Wow!
111
Dude!
112
Dude!
113
I honestly can't believe all the progress we made on this secret room.
114
It's really starting to look like a 7 -eleven.
115
And even though we were having a lot of success with our 7 -Eleven, we were about to run into a huge problem.
116
So I just sent Sean home to check up on both Alex and Tanner, because I haven't seen either of them all day.
117
When we started his fitness challenge, Alan mounted a security camera in my room to keep an eye on me,
118
because he knows I hide snacks in there.
119
So I put a picture of an empty room in front of the camera to hide my secret 7 -Eleven.
120
Oh, that's perfect.
121
Alex, check it out.
122
Look at all these boxes I got from the 7 -Eleven warehouse.
123
You were able to find snacks from Japan, Mexico, and Indonesia?
124
That's right.
125
Tanner got snacks from 7 -Elevens all around the world to add to our secret room.
126
Let's check out someone at 7 -Elevens' snacks from Mexico.
127
Oh, damn!
128
Dude, these snacks are so unique!
129
That's sick!
130
We got Mexican...
131
Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
132
It's got a ring notification.
133
It said someone's at the door.
134
Wait.
135
Sean?
136
I'm gonna hide all this stuff!
137
Alex?
138
Why do you think of my phone call?
139
Wait, we gotta barricade the door!
140
Alex!
141
I know you're up to no good, Alex.
142
Where you at?
143
Whatever you do, don't let them in!
144
Guys?
145
What's all this?
146
Sean, Sean, listen to me.
147
It's not what it looks like.
148
Oh, hell no, y 'all.
149
You're cheating on your diet?
150
I'm out here buzzing my ass off?
151
Sean.
152
Of course it's YouTube.
153
Look, Sean, we already spent $15 ,000.
154
Please don't tell Alan.
155
Please.
156
Okay, fine, but after this, you guys have to not cheat on your diet anymore.
157
It's for your own good.
158
Okay.
159
I'll cover it for you guys.
160
Alex, we're not actually doing that, are we?
161
Hell no!
162
And after persuading Sean not to tell Alan...
163
Alan's got Tanner sick too!
164
It was finally time to resume building our 7 -eleven
165
I did with
166
Alan Tanner ended up finding literally everything we could have possibly needed for a 7 -eleven
167
but not without eating some of it first
168
Oh, oh, oh, oh, damn, hey, hey, hey, hey, stop.
169
Not yet.
170
And of course, more snacks stocked with some drinks as well.
171
And lastly, a Slurpee machine section.
172
Honestly, I can't believe how good of a job we're doing.
173
What is it?
174
We actually do have a big problem.
175
We need to find something to cover up that giant hole, because if someone else comes home, we're screwed.
176
I know just the thing.
177
You do?
178
Follow me.
179
While we headed off to find a secret entrance for a 7 -Eleven,
180
Alan's 90 day fitness challenge was starting to get borderline violence correction literally violence
181
what was that What's happening?
182
Who keeps turning the lights?
183
I have been waiting for this my whole life!
184
Is that all you got?
185
It's Brian Powell!
186
Well, at least Hannah and I were actually being productive.
187
So we have this giant painting here, and this is going to be the perfect thing to use as a secret entrance.
188
Oh!
189
What the hell happened?
190
Unfortunately, someone broke into our secret room.
191
But luckily, we already set up security cameras, so we checked the footage to see what happened.
192
Uh, that's not me. So we forced
193
Buck to clean everything up, but he kept getting distracted.
194
What?
195
I'm just helping.
196
I had to hide
197
Tanner's chair, but luckily, Bok was able to get the job done.
198
Now it was finally time for us to install our secret door.
199
Honestly, this is the perfect painting to use because if Alan sees this, I'll just tell him it's a motivational poster for when we're in shape,
200
and I don't think he's gonna question it.
201
Now we had to hurry and mount this quick because it was getting late, and Alan could get here any minute.
202
Okay, that was the last screw.
203
Let's see if it works.
204
Oh, it's holding it off.
205
Let's go.
206
Wait.
207
Oh, look at Tanner!
208
Oh my gosh!
209
Oh my gosh!
210
Now, we still have a lot more stuff to bring in and a lot of stuff to unpack.
211
So, let's go do that before I give you guys a full room tour.
212
It's not a 7 -Eleven without the famous food warmers.
213
Look at that.
214
Doesn't that look amazing?
215
Take this out.
216
It's so good!
217
Oh, brain freeze.
218
Oh, God.
219
Our 7 -Eleven was really coming together, but I was starting to worry that
220
Tanner would eat all the snacks without me.
221
Speaking of snacks, let's check in on the other boys.
222
What the hell is even that?
223
Uh, I actually thought we were gonna make it through a whole video without Sean doing something sus.
224
Anyways, Tanner and I are just putting the finishing touches on our secret 7 -Eleven.
225
Three, two, one.
226
Woo!
227
That was the last of the show.
228
Time to give you guys a proper 7 -Eleven room tour.
229
Let's go!
230
Welcome to my secret 7 -Eleven.
231
Right over here, we have the fridges where we have a ton of drinks.
232
And moving on, this section I'm excited for.
233
We have our very own ice cream machine.
234
For the next section, we have two different Slurpee machines.
235
Right over here, we have the cold fountain drink machine.
236
And if you scoot over to this section, we have the hot dog rollers right here.
237
I know Sean would love this if he was here.
238
The hot dogs.
239
We also have a food warmer full of my favorite healthy snacks.
240
Now to the next section.
241
We have some international 7 -Eleven snacks that we're going to get to right after the tour.
242
And over this section, if you don't eat all the food, we have chips, two liter sodas, and we have more chips.
243
And then we have the gondola show.
244
Each side, we have snacks, every kind of candy you can imagine.
245
Hershey's, Butterfingers, Kit Kats, Twix, Reese's.
246
Little bit healthier on this side.
247
You know, we can't be eating all junk food.
248
Hell no!
249
Nah, I mean, we can't, we can't.
250
It's not healthy to eat all junk food.
251
Pistachios, pistachios, Tanner.
252
Beef jerky, beef jerky canner, come on, dude.
253
Get the out of your canner.
254
It's so crazy to me that this was once a room that no one knew existed.
255
And now it's a secret 7 -Eleven that still no one knows exists.
256
Except for us.
257
Let's hope it stays that way.
258
But that was gonna be hard because alan kept sending people home i'm honestly
259
so sore from all the workouts
260
so i just sent caleb home to grab the massage gun
261
and some smoothies
262
so we can keep going
263
now it's finally time to try out some of the international 7 -eleven snacks on my side i have mexico
264
and on my side i have japanese snacks
265
so i got the some pound cake and i got the strawberry roll cake what's so good
266
Wait, that looks good too.
267
Please let me get a sniff.
268
Okay What are you - what the hell?
269
Oh my god that tastes so good!
270
Pound cake time.
271
Pound cake.
272
Wow.
273
Holy crap.
274
This is actually so good.
275
Yeah, oh my god.
276
I'm so glad we're not eating that healthy diet crap.
277
I think I like the roll cake better than the pound cake.
278
Really?
279
I like the Mexican pound cake a lot more.
280
Alex, Tanner.
281
Who was that?
282
Alex. Where are you guys?
283
Are you guys freaking hiding from me?
284
Alex.
285
Where the heck are you guys?
286
Alex.
287
Stop.
288
I'm breaking the door.
289
Alright, I'm going down to make some smoothies.
290
And if you don't come out by then, I'm calling Alex.
291
Let's just go out there and pretend it works out.
292
Oh, there you guys are.
293
Oh, Caleb?
294
What's up, dude?
295
What is that painting?
296
Oh, that?
297
Uh, little motivational painting for when me and Alan are in shape.
298
All right.
299
We'll have to get back to that, you know?
300
I brought you guys some smoothies.
301
Do you want them?
302
Nah, we're good.
303
We had some slussies earlier.
304
All right.
305
All right.
306
Well, I got to get back and work out, so I'll see you guys in about two hours.
307
Okay.
308
Alright, try to catch up to us, Caleb.
309
Yeah, man.
310
We're burning them calories.
311
Good luck.
312
Dude, that was so close.
313
Why would we want that?
314
And we got those slushies.
315
And now that we know exactly how long
316
Alan was going to be at the gym for.
317
About two hours.
318
It was time to have some fun.
319
Wow.
320
Oh, yeah.
321
We'll remember this day forever, Tanner.
322
Oh, yeah.
323
Did you just sniff my fart?
324
No. Why didn't you sniff my fart?
325
Did you just sniff my fart?
326
Sniff your fart, dude.
327
Come on.
328
Give some other good pictures.
329
Oh, my God.
330
This looks so hidden.
331
No one would ever be able to tell.
332
And to test just how hidden the secret room is, we're gonna invite a subscriber over to see if they can find us.
333
With the subscriber on the way, Tanner and I changed into our 7 -Eleven outfits and waited.
334
They don't look anything like that.
335
Oh, she's right there. Should we scare her?
336
Yeah, let's do it.
337
Ow!
338
Come on.
339
Oh my God, is this a 7 -Eleven?
340
Yeah, we spent all day building our own 7 -Eleven.
341
And because you're a subscriber, we'll give you one minute to buy whatever you want for free.
342
Starting now.
343
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
344
What the heck?
345
There's so many things.
346
Come on, come on, come on, grab it.
347
I've never let you eat ice cream.
348
Get all of them.
349
Yeah.
350
Come on, get all the soda you want.
351
Ooh, Gatorade.
352
Ooh, I love these.
353
So she only has 30 seconds left, but we're constantly flying out subscribers from all around the world.
354
And if you want to be in a video just like her, then all you have to do is subscribe.
355
All right, you got 10 seconds.
356
10, be quick.
357
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
358
Three, two, one.
359
All right, put it down, put it down.
360
That's a lot of stuff you got there.
361
Oh, we're going to have to help her.
362
It'll last be a long time.
363
Be careful, it's heavy.
364
Thank you.
365
I had a lot of fun.
366
Y 'all can too if you subscribe.
367
Unfortunately, we lost track of time and forgot
368
Alan would be home soon.
369
All right, guys, we're going to be going home for the last workout.
370
Hey, how are you getting home?
371
We're running home for the last workout.
372
Let's go!
373
Wait, but that's gonna take us 30 minutes!
374
I gotta warn Alex.
375
It's finally time to try the rest of the international snacks.
376
Let's do it!
377
Someone's calling.
378
Hello?
379
Hey, Alex, Alex, we're running back out to the house right now.
380
We're like a few minutes away.
381
Okay, bye!
382
Oh no, Alex, we're done!
383
Dude, we're gonna get caught!
384
Come on, dude!
385
Can't.
386
Can't.
387
Almost there!
388
I was almost there!
389
Why did I agree to this?
390
I'm gonna start stressing you again, dude.
391
We get 300 again.
392
Okay, take that out of your mouth.
393
Guys, we're literally almost home.
394
I can see the house from here.
395
So far, the secret room has passed every task.
396
Let me show you the game plan.
397
All right, we'll be fine.
398
When Alan gets here, first thing we do, shut the painting behind us.
399
We can be doing push -ups, whatever we want, working out, and then whenever we want to,
400
we can just come right back inside and you'll never be able to tell.
401
I don't think I can look
402
Alan in the eye and lie to him.
403
What was that?
404
She's here.
405
Alex!
406
I'm back!
407
Wait, wait, wait, wait, we gotta change back.
408
We gotta change back into our shirt.
409
Where are you?
410
Hey, Alex!
411
Alex!
412
Oh, you guys are working out?
413
Yes, sir.
414
Dude, what is this picture?
415
This is motivation, because by this summertime, we're gonna look like this.
416
Oh, I brought you salad.
417
Really?
418
Yeah.
419
You don't want it?
420
You gotta get healthy, remember?
421
Haven't eaten all day.
422
Tanner, why don't you have some salad too?
423
Oh, no, I can't.
424
I got a crumb put in at the dentist.
425
Really?
426
Yeah.
427
What's your dentist's name?
428
Crensist.
429
All right, well, I'm glad you guys are feeling better.
430
We gotta flush this down.
431
I like that.
432
What the hell was the f*ing Krentice thing?
433
I didn't know what to say.
434
I told you.
435
Just don't say anything.
436
Hey, can you guys come downstairs for the weigh -in?
437
Guys?
438
Alex?
439
Tanner?
440
Where'd you guys go?
441
Guys, wait.
442
Wait.
443
What do we do?
444
Alex.
445
Stop.
446
What do you got?
447
What do you got?
448
What do you got?
449
What do you got?
450
What do you got?
451
What is all this?
452
What's going on?
453
Alex, you can't expect us to eat salad all day.
454
I'm not a rabbit.
455
You know what?
456
Save it.
457
You'll always be my brother, but you'll never be my twin.
458
Unless I eat some of this yummy snacks and gain some weight!
459
Woo!
460
More.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
