Pratica di Shadowing: I Actually Bought 100 TikTok Ads - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

The other day I was hanging out with Haley's cousins

and they had all this stuff from TikTok shop

and they kept saying things like mogging and am I cooked chat

and I have no idea what any of that stuff means.

For the first time in my life, I feel, oh.

So today I am re-downloading TikTok, buying the first 100 TikTok shop ads I see and by the end of this video, I'm gonna meet back up with Haley's cousins, but this time I'm gonna fit in.

This is a bad idea.

Here we go.

Mog tape.

The ad I saw for this product was honestly insane.

If you want to be the Sigma and Riz your crush this year, then you need this.

The packaging on the Mog tape is pretty nice.

It's breathable, gentle, hypoallergenic, and it just works.

I don't know what it's supposed to do, but it does it.

The back just clearly feels like I got scammed.

Like, why is there a shushing emoji next to the title of the product?

Apparently you just put the tape on your mouth and you start mogging.

It just looks like I got a mustache.

I got the fancy toaster.

I bought it.

It has all these settings.

Bread, bagel, pastry, waffle, English muffin, grain.

It also lets you select how cooked you want your bread to be, visually.

Let's see how good this toaster is going in.

I'm thinking a light four.

That's what it should look like.

Let's see.

Goodness!

Doesn't have much weight to it.

Holy moly.

My bread is going to be toasting for a total of three minutes.

The TikToks promoting this toaster are all over the place, But every single one of them comes back to the point that it is the fanciest toaster you will ever own.

But I don't care if it looks nice.

I want this to be the best toast I've ever had.

That actually looks perfect.

Pretty cool toaster.

I actually cannot wait to use this lav mic.

You guys know me.

I love lav mics.

I'm using one right now.

This was $5.77.

Just watch this.

I wanted to test the wireless mics to see how well the noise cancellation works in the worst conditions.

These things come on.

The lawnmower should go away.

This guy's lawn's still getting cut, though.

Don't worry, buddy.

So let's see if it's legit.

All right, guys.

So this is the normal iPhone audio.

But I'm going to be testing out this microphone right here.

It was literally $5.

I'm just going to plug this in, and you should notice a difference in the audio.

Listen closely.

All right, what do we think?

Do we think this is pretty good audio?

Let me know if I should use it.

Everybody's asking, Ryan, which credit card sleeve did you get?

Ryan, did you get the one with SpongeBob?

No, I got this one.

I'm at Taco Bell.

I really don't understand the purpose of this.

I guess it's like a fun way to customize your credit cards

and maybe even conceal information that you don't want out there.

I'm going to make a purchase and hopefully get a chuckle out of it.

Can I just get a Baja Blast?

Awesome.

I'm known for my pranks, but this is going to be the craziest one yet.

You guys take Monopoly money?

It's a credit card sleeve.

It's a little prank.

They didn't even laugh.

I'm still in the Taco Bell drive-thru.

This item is perfect because I tried to make them laugh and they didn't like me.

So now I can impress them with materialistic things.

$11.

If someone told me this was $10,000, I'd believe them.

The TikToks of people flexing this is like, honestly, I respect, I respect it.

See how it looks on me.

Yo!

That watch looks like a million dollars.

Can I get a Baja Blast?

Anything else?

That's gonna be it.

Alright, it'd be 280.

I already finished my Baja Blast.

Gotta make sure they can see the watch.

Back already, sorry.

It was so good, I just had to...

You wanna try a gelato?

Oh yeah, oh yes, I saw this on TikTok.

Yay!

Is it pretty good?

I think they're pretty good.

Okay, cool.

It's your Cinnabon.

Oh, thank you.

Bye.

100

All right.

101

See you guys.

102

All right.

103

Take care.

104

I wear the watch and they give me free Baja Blast gelato in a Cinnabon.

105

I have an idea.

106

If Taco Bell liked the watch, just wait until they see the Lambo.

107

I knew this was going to be a scam the whole time.

108

So honestly, this is kind of fun.

109

Like, I'm actually excited about this.

110

I didn't know if it would drive with me in it, but look at this.

111

What can I get for you?

112

I just feel like another Baja Blast.

113

Alright, thank you King.

114

That was my last one, I promise.

115

Alright, see you guys.

116

Alright.

117

This is probably the first official scam of the video.

118

In the TikToks that I saw, this jersey looks incredible.

119

It looks pretty underwhelming in person, but hey, it's an Otani jersey.

120

At least we got that going for us.

121

He's an amazing baseball player, right?

122

The back doesn't even say Otani.

123

Did they print it with invisible ink?

124

This is crazy.

125

The listing clearly shows that it has Otani on the back, but it doesn't.

126

I don't understand because literally every TikTok has Otani on the back.

127

This looks nothing like what I bought online.

128

I love electronics.

129

I love looking at them online.

130

But I'm worried that people are getting a little bit too good at marketing on TikTok shop.

131

This camera was $47 the girl

132

that was promoting this camera called it the viral 4k digital camera The part of me thinks

133

if you're trying to sell something you just put viral in front of it

134

And then all of a sudden you sell them regardless she made money off of me, so let's try it out This camera is pretty nice.

135

It has a flip out screen, which is really surprising.

136

I guess let's just try to take a photo Okay,

137

that was fun, but one way you can definitely tell this is a TikTok shop item, there's a beauty face filter that you can turn on built into the camera.

138

This is definitely one of the most intriguing items of this video.

139

The TikTok's crazy.

140

I don't know what it is.

141

Is it a cake or not?

142

She's selling it as a candle.

143

It's so funny.

144

All the comments are like, how do you make the bread rise like that?

145

And she's just gatekeeping.

146

She's not telling us.

147

So here it is.

148

It smells like food.

149

It looks like food.

150

Let's light it on fire.

151

I don't know how I feel about eating anything that I bought on TikTok, but this looks like a pretty good deal.

152

Every TikTok that I've seen featuring a Chomoi pickle, it literally looks like their hands are going to be stained red for the rest of their lives.

153

The fact that you can pour out the liquid

154

that this pickle has been sitting in and it looks like pure Red 40, it's concerning at best.

155

I'm terrified of pretty much anything that's spicy, and candy just probably shouldn't be spicy, can we all agree on that?

156

But here's what comes in a bus and snacks kit.

157

Flamin' Hot Cheetos, some spicy Lucas, more Lucas, this is, yeah, spicy gummies, a fruit roll-up, medical gloves, okay, I don't like where this is going,

158

I really dislike where this is going now, and a big Tex pickle.

159

I bought a pickle on TikTok.

160

I'm opening this up in a plastic bag because I don't want to stain my carpet forever.

161

So this is what the inside of the pickle bag looks like.

162

It just pretty much looks horrible.

163

So before I prepare my worst nightmare, I literally am so scared to eat something like that.

164

I'm eating each of the ingredients one by one.

165

The hot Cheetos are pretty good.

166

These are hotter than I remember.

167

The spicy spaghetti was actually pretty solid.

168

There's also this hot sauce.

169

I just tried a dab and it was a bit too much for me.

170

This stuff was actually really good but finally it's time to prepare a chamoy pickle.

171

If I was in the Avengers this is all they would need to stop me.

172

I hate everything that this stands for but I'm trying to get Haley's cousins to think I'm cool.

173

So this is for you Haley.

174

you This was one of the first TikTok ads that I saw after re-downloading the app.

175

I love that he slices his hot dogs.

176

This man knows how to elevate his life with the little things.

177

And just like that you've got yourself a perfect dog

178

You don't have to get that close when I take the bite you don't have to All right, we go to the next one

179

Frankly the only reason that I bought this is because the girl who uploaded this TikTok is a

180

Master salesman watch this OMG, this is the best thing I've ever ordered from this app.

181

Look at this cereal dispenser.

182

Like what?

183

She seems stoked about this product.

184

Let's put some cereal in it.

185

How does it work?

186

How do you dispense?

187

I need help.

188

I can't stop spilling things.

189

The cake from the train video.

190

The tea.

191

Oh my gosh.

192

The coffee.

193

Will it ever end?

194

I was already upset that I spilled a bunch of cereal, but also it only dispenses one grain of cereal at a time.

195

Like just one.

196

This is called a Kraken.

197

This guy invented a product where pretty much you just stab it into a drink

198

or a jar of peanut butter or worst case scenario Vaseline and try to drink it really quickly.

199

I'm responsible, but I'm also fun.

200

So today we're gonna be trying this product out with Diet Mountain Dew.

201

Good luck everybody!

202

Holy smokes!

203

That's one way to ingest 12 ounces of Diet Mountain Dew.

204

This is a deep tissue neck massager.

205

It's about 35 bucks on TikTok shop.

206

Specifically this TikTok that says, I let my father-in-law test out the viral massager.

207

Look at his reaction.

208

I don't know whose father-in-law this is, but he sold me this product.

209

Without further ado, let's plug this thing in.

210

I'm a grown man.

211

The weird thing about this listing is I think if you buy it, they just send you a random inflatable.

212

This is not the one I bought.

213

The one I bought had the kiwi on it, like the kid was playing with.

214

It looks like instead of a kiwi, I got that whatever that is.

215

I'm gonna have some fun now.

216

All right, guys, so the first thing I did was have fun with this ray blaster.

217

Climbed up the bouncy house, headed straight to the slide.

218

You already know what I did.

219

Slid down that bad boy.

220

Stood up completely unharmed.

221

Decided to start punching this target.

222

You guys know I have a pretty mean haymaker, so I literally cut a hole in it.

223

And that's all the fun I got to have with this item.

224

We've got an old man mask.

225

All right.

226

TikToks like this are honestly like my least favorite kind of content on the internet.

227

I just don't know many people that would actually be scared by an old person.

228

That's pretty much just what it is.

229

With that being said, let's try it on.

230

I think it just tore.

231

It just tore immediately.

232

This was such a waste of money.

233

I was actually really excited about this electric nose trimmer.

234

I mean, I don't got crazy nose hairs or anything, but we all have our days.

235

It's $12, which anything that's electronic, I'm kind of surprised when it's fairly cheap, but if you want to talk about being surprised...

236

I got scammed.

237

This is not electronic at all.

238

It's a piece of metal.

239

You have to manually trim your nose hairs with this thing.

240

Are you kidding me?

241

What is this from?

242

The Stone Age?

243

I'm sorry for the eye contact.

244

I got ripped off.

245

I'm about to put you on.

246

These are gonna change your life.

247

I gotta watch a video real quick.

248

I watched a quick tutorial about how these work, and now, you're about to watch a handsome guy absolutely shred.

249

They look just like regular shoes.

250

How's it going?

251

But can regular shoes do this?

252

This next one is genuinely absurd.

253

You have to watch this video for yourself.

254

This guy has the wireless mic and everything, and he's kind of handsome.

255

Look at this.

256

Guys, you've got to see this.

257

Somebody made this candy called Joyride.

258

Now, I know what you're thinking.

259

Ryan, we know that's you.

260

No, it isn't.

261

Look at this.

262

This is a blue raspberry sour strip.

263

No fake colors.

264

No junk ingredients.

265

Mmm.

266

It's fire joyride is the next candy up i'm telling you they don't sell on tiktok shop but

267

if you live in america go get it at target target

268

i'm saying joyride's trying to become the top selling candy in target with no fake colors

269

or junk ingredients but they only have this much shelf space this much

270

and guess who's number one selling candy at target nerds gummy clusters i wonder why

271

so guys let's help him go get more shelf space go buy joyride

272

and target right now it's the best candy in the world you won't regret it i thought

273

that would be a creative way to tell you guys to go to target and get joyride hopefully worked

274

Next up we got mewing gum this is supposed to give

275

you a jawline from another planet I should look like a

276

different species after chewing this guy regardless let's give this a shot Comes with quite a bit of gum here goes nothing.

277

Oh Oh It's actually really hard.

278

I'll go for two pieces.

279

I don't know It says to chew for 5 to 15 minutes for maximum results so

280

Here is my face before mewing gum, and here is my face after.

281

Let me know if you notice a difference.

282

Uh oh, night time.

283

Randomly, night time clip.

284

I have never seen people try to sell a product as much as people try to sell this projector.

285

People are doing staged scenes to try to sell this thing.

286

This TikTok is crazy.

287

Yo, you want some Raymond?

288

What are you doing?

289

Turn off the lights, I'm gonna die.

290

What do you mean by the die?

291

Are you a vampire or something?

292

Bro, look up.

293

Oh snap!

294

Well it worked on me!

295

Hey Spock, Spock's trying to go under the covers.

296

Don't judge me.

297

Don't judge me that I sleep with a Chihuahua.

298

This projector has a lot of tall promises.

299

It also comes with a remote with no batteries.

300

I had to put the batteries in myself.

301

I got it all plugged in, so without further ado, let's watch some YouTube!

302

Of course we don't shopping while eating a chicken bake!

303

All right!

304

We're Costco guys.

305

Of course we have to try the new double chunk chocolate cookies.

306

Nice!

307

So it's a Bluetooth speaker that you attach to Crocs.

308

The Crocs in this video have to go down in history.

309

That is a Sprite giblet, a Bluetooth speaker, and headlights.

310

It actually looks like he might commute to work in these things.

311

It's got the little giblet attachment here.

312

I've got my Crocs from when I went to Shrek Swamp, and I've actually never added a giblet to a pair of Crocs before, so let's give it a shot.

313

There goes nothing.

314

What are you doing in my swamp?

315

Imagine that playing on a 10-hour loop as I walk through the mall.

316

What are you doing in my swamp?

317

Well, here we are.

318

Two weeks after buying and testing a hundred TikTok shop ads, I asked Haley's cousins to meet up.

319

You see, in the past, they've only ever looked at me as cringe and old.

320

But thanks to TikTok shop, those days are gone.

321

All right, thanks so much for watching.

322

I'm trying to get my candy joyride to become the number one selling candy in Target.

323

So if you live in America, go to Target, get some joyride.

324

And by the way, YouTube thinks you'll love this video on the screen right now, so click it.

325

It's probably way more fun than watching TikToks.

326

I don't know.

327

Just me.

328

Love you.

329

Bye.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
