-- music.

So many great -- with the word fire -- it through that smoke on the water Deep Purple.

Light my fire and you pick that.

Why would you do that to me.

All right sorry so it's and is a California over twenty people were treated for burns on their feet.

After walking on hot coals during a seminar run by self help guru Tony Robbins various giant man.

At least three people ended up -- the hospital there was that first night of unleash the power within 84 day thingy with 6000 attendees.

But what I suspect -- power within that Robbins wasn't leasing was coming from their wallets.

Here's a key question did you self walked on those hot -- pot holes.

I think we might know that answered making the adults with -- -- clogging the -- the bigger jolt that's what Robbins -- he is a genius.

-- makes millions proving that people who fall for this -- morons.

There's no magic potion for achievement.

Other than a decade of hard work if you look at anyone he's done anything they hit their stride magically after ten years it's that simple.

A bit of -- ten years of -- before he landed his first big fish.

Whether it's Robbins -- Deepak Chopra gurus capitalize on need which is really Smart because lord knows there's a lot of it to go around.

But the only way out of a -- is glorious hard work but if you think self help seminars -- your path to riches you're gonna get burned in more ways that line.

I think we have tape from my FOX & Friends that was.

Young woman maybe that went through it was pretty pretty -- she described it to -- it here when -- play it.

He kind of coached us on how to do it and there were pretty much.

Three things that we have to really to as one was to block and the normal pace and Iraq.

I'm second to keep repeating cool Moscow Moscow Alonso and that certainly -- -- -- -- look away from the fires so we have to look up.

And then at the -- we had to celebrates.

So that was pretty much what I did it.

Yeah.

If ever I get mad at you -- Bob again I'm gonna -- repeating cool -- you think we'll that's kind of lives.

A -- -- does this work entry I know that you've been involved in a number of -- I.

Helping you could this possibly work just by and the fact is people were paying attention north -- Did they fail Tony Robbins it's hard to believe that cool mosque called -- -- -- thousands degree temperature cold doesn't work I'm not gonna try to Greg and you're disappointed.

And to prove you wrong.

This is called release the stupidity within and then -- blame them.

For doing that it's it's it -- you know that the saying I guess is -- walk on hot coals for something or someone -- I'd give you an arm and a leg for that as someone.

Ask you Greg to give -- your arm in your leg would you do it.

Probably not.

Yes this Cadillac.

I -- -- the great -- pars -- rounds of all time ripping people off for years now here ask yourself this up.

Who's gonna go to Tony Robbins seminar and walk on colds now after this this this little gig -- -- out.

And the thing we talked about 10 o'clock this morning is if you're the fifteen person in line and -- fifty people tell you that you think are what Eliot.

I let me after the second one you'd say no I -- but what do you want.

Think they -- an assembly should -- -- she said the reason why burn my feet was I wasn't concentrating enough.

It's your Bol it is our fault judge points on the out does this work US does this work well it certainly does word because -- 6000 people -- 250 bucks a pop yes million and half thought that the weekend.

That's why I think -- Tony Robbins it's I think the problem was that they try to do this stunt on the first night rather than that third night yes they had waited until everybody was and had more power within they would and a PR disaster that is a good that's a great point have you ever read to you with -- self help every now and then it's -- let -- never last week when I did a tribute to Stephen -- yes who the author who passed away he wrote the seven habits of highly effective people which you clearly did not read it.

I think there's a lot of things at these people could have been doing.

With their 250 bucks over a weekend have been trying to improve themselves -- you -- a lot of other things that could've been doing.

Brilliantly.

Upheld some are really ready to on the -- before you know but there's some question about whether.

The things he put on the before -- those pony things that light up you know calls like you have a -- this guy actually but real cold out there and again I repeat twice.

People how can I got a question for you have so many people tell you they'd walk on hot coals for you -- isn't everything having them do that from.

Now you know I think if I can get how much was that 250 million and a half I could do that in my apartment for like.

France.

I grant it leaked to make -- Levy and Bill -- in on red -- tonight I will definitely -- -- -- Jasper come they're -- I.

Bret Michaels -- made the best -- but of all this is all.

Like here's what he's gonna do today your Honda Center right he's and say we didn't work hard enough.

That you wait until the third day next time we're gonna bring back the same 21 people burn their feet they're not gonna -- -- in the get Charlie -- double next time there you can point.
