Brad Tries Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt
Nobody beats Steven Seagal in the kitchen. But what if he's making an energy drink?
Special thanks to contributor Roy!

Well it does have a giant slugs name on the can. Yeah, I went there.

That drink might give you a "Fire Down Below"

I thought Spoony was going to do a video on the drink. I guess you easily beated him!

Apparently he has a case of both. Maybe the two of you could try the other flavor together and compare, because everyone loves crossovers. Well, I do.
PS Love that you decided which movie it was!

With special guest cameo the Mailman at 2:04.

I did a little Googleing, and it turns out they both actually have Goji in them. So this could very well be the "good" one.

Someone passed through the window at like two minutes in, man. WATCH OUT IT'S THE ZOMBIE FROM AX 'EM!

2:04 ! look the window ! somebody makes a cameo hahaha , to skinny to be Mr Seagal hahaha

Maybe one of Seagal's stunt doubles.
In Belly of the Beast he used one that looked half his size and half as fat.

Atleast in editing the video, I knew it was time to go outside and check my mailbox =)

"When you get this part is where his wife gets killed and he gets put into a coma ..." I think I've never laughed as hard as I have watching you drink that crap along with all the Seagal references along the can. Plus, ginseng, guarana, B-vitamins aren't really what you would call "exotic" now-a-days. The only thing I hadn't heard about was the goji berry. But, if that is what Seagal wants to include in his "Asian experience", so be it. He still some primo performances back in the day.

Really like your new Trys it series. One suggestion when you try drinks any chance you could have a clear glass and pour the drinks in them? I was curious about the looks of the Birds Nest drink and this one.
I would love to know what color is it? What did the chunks in the birds nets drink look like?
Keep up the great series!! Thank you

Dude, Crystal Head vodka. It's distilled with Ray Stanz's flop sweat.

When you described the taste based on Steven Seagal movies you made it sound like the energy drink was made by Willy Wonka.

At 2:03 either the mail man or a stalker was behind you...

Yet another sell out cameo! Grr! Bark! Bark!

Hey, quit your bitching. Brad gets dogged hard enough for these cameos as it is. Maybe if you weren't yapping so much, you'd see that the cameos can be good. Besides, he's got to throw Channel Awesome a bone every now and then. I know you don't want to just roll over and play dead, but maybe if you'd just sit down and stay quite for a while, you'd find you're in for a treat.

Hey, Brad. I'm a big fan of yours since finding you through thatguywiththeglasses.com (the whole Kickassia debacle just cemented my appreciation of you as a performer). Loving this new series. Can't wait to see what you try next!
Reply to this
lol, if it was "Flight of Fury" bad, then at least you'd be tasting stock footage of another drink! Anyway, funny video. Loved the Seagal quips. It has been my mission to watch all of his movies, and its pretty sad that "Half Past Dead", which used to be one of his weakest entries, has now become one of his better movies.
I don't know what happened. He started off cool, then his movies became too pretentious(with deep messages, etc), now he simply doesn't care.
Reply to this
I enjoy your normal reviews, but these Brad Tries videos are entertaining as well. A suggestion for a product I would say is to try, Pepsi Ice Cucumber. If you can find a bottle that is.
Reply to this
You should have whiskey'd up that drink.
Reply to this
Oh my goodness the Cinema Snob started saying some crazy stuff about tossing someone down an elevator shaft and chopping someones head off as the person (mail man?) came walking by the window ha ha.
Oh my sugar overdose so sweet your lips will be puckered FOREVER!
Uh oh bitter Segal at least it wasnt sweaty workout Segal.
The drink so addicting you'll keep on drinking it no matter how horrible it tastes.
Thank you Cinema Snob for educating us on the dangers of that first free one.
And thanks to Roy and all past contributors which bring out the super human RIKI-OH like powers of THE CINEMA SNOB! SNOB! SNOB!

The Steven Seagal energy drink is just the thing if you need to diliver a series of rapid close-up karate chops, whilst pursing your lips and wearing a fringed black suede jacket.
But actual energy.... I dunno? Is energy really something you think of when you think of Steven Seagal? The phrase 'Steven Seagal Energy Drink' may even be an oxymoron
Reply to this
Nice review. For the next TGWTG crossover you and Joe should do a stuff review together.
The name made me think of Steven Seagal in the woods yelling "Lightning Bolt! Lightning Bolt!"

Japan has cucumber Pepsi. Don't even get me started on japanese ice cream (Hint: most flavors are based on a dare).

Do the kombucha next!
The mail lady deserves a cameo, she's really nice to me despite the fact that every time she delivers mail she gets a hoarde of dogs barking at her.
Reply to this
You do a pretty good Seagal impression! "Botanicals" makes it sound like a shampoo. "On Deadly Ground" is a good analogy.
Reply to this
You can't taste drinks that taste like shit, because you live in usa and theres no such a thing in usa, if you live in a poor country like mine, you would have a plenety of shit to taste, but then, you wouldn't even complain.
Reply to this
The Segal drink might not be great however, Gogi berries are actually very good for you! Actually, the Segal drink would be a really good thing to have around if you're hungover!
Reply to this
You may not have been eating bugs but still pretty close...
So what was worse? Insects or fungal parasites that grow on insects (i.e. Cordyceps)?- Which you say were one of the ingredients!
Reply to this
I think for the next Brad Tries video you need to go back to some weird food again. It was fun to watch you become revolted at eating grasshoppers last time. But then like a week later the UNTIL WE WIN guy was eating grasshoppers like they were potato chips or something. You must find a way to top him with some other bizarre food.

May I suggest chocolate covered bacon?

Steven Segal works for the Local Sheriff department here in town where he films his "snicker" TV show.
I drove past him busting some guy on my way to work the other day. Crazy!
I like that he calls it the Asian Experience. Really?
I know he's part "Asian" and all...but really...
You looked like that tasted all kinds of awful.
Reply to this
When i tried it originally like two years ago I did not think it was that bad. But it has been a while since i had it so I probably forgot just how it was. I do remember that it had a weird after taste when you mentioned it. I do not know if it was the "exotic botanicals" or me just getting hyped up , but it seemed to work for me and give me some energy. Glad you enjoyed it. I guess enjoyed is not the best thing to say. I never tried the other one just this blue canned one.
Reply to this
Hey Brad, love your shows. Such quality work. Been watching for a few months now. I check for new vids every day. I also really enjoy the new "Tries..." series.
The Segal references in this one were especially entertaining. Keep up the awesome work!
Reply to this
Dude, cordyceps is a fungus that infects insect's nervous systems causing them to go crazy and climb to a high place. Then they die, and it grows out of them. Seriously, youtube it and be amazed/freaked out. Buddy, that's what you're drinking!
Reply to this
Casey Ryback would chug that shit then make a pipe bomb out of the can.
Reply to this
"kinda starts out with an after taste doesn't it?" I think I'm gonna go down to my local wallgreens and clean out the mexican drink section, send it all to Brad and see what happens
Reply to this
Hey man, if you can get your hands on some Jones soda in your area. They have a holiday flavor called turkey and gravy. Try at your own risk.
Reply to this
Good review as always, Brad. I really liked all the Segal references. Still, it's kind of sad you won't be beating those insects anytime soon. Or at least, I hope you won't.
Also, please don't review all those weird holiday sodas that Jones Soda makes. I've seen plenty of reviews of those already, and I don't know why anyone else should be subjected to them.
Reply to this
I have a weird desire to send Brad some weed just for an episode called "Brad Tries Mary Jane" where he gets high and watches Black Devil Doll From Hell giggling the whole fucking time.
Reply to this
Seems pretty darn sweet then. Ha ha! I could've told you anything from Steven Seagal would end up leaving a bad taste in your mouth.
Reply to this
I had that drink a few years ago at a party. The best way to describe the taste is like a bunch of sweet tarts that have been sitting on a men's room floor.

I love Goji berries!!! they're really good =3

Just throwing this out there, but "Brad Tries Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt" sounds a lot more pornographic when you take it out of context.
Reply to this
"The Asian Experience" should always include a handjob.
Reply to this
Goji Berry, huh? So I guess if you drink enough of this, you'll turn into a giant reptile and attack Tokyo.
Reply to this
Argh, speeded by G-Fan.
These videos aren't exactly very short, but the experience of it is certainly very quick... almost as quick as the Lightning Bolt's aftertaste. But nowhere near as bitter.
Great video. Will there be a side bar Brad Tries category on the site soon?
Reply to this
It is there isn't it? Right underneath "Brad and Jerrid"?
Reply to this
One of my friends tried those drinks. It took him about an hour to actually open the can, because we were making fun of it for so long. We believed that it harnessed the essence of his greasy hair.
Reply to this
The can says there's no sugar added? The website for these drinks lists the second ingredient as cane juice concentrate, which I think is basically cane sugar that hasn't been dried and powdered.
A loophole, I guess, since cane juice might count as a juice rather than as added sugar?

Your facial expressions when you taste this are just a riot! The 3rd drink you take it totally looks like you're thinking 'Why the hell did I just drink that again?'
I actually found this drink at our local Big Lots about 2 years ago and absolutely had to have it for my 'weird can' collection. I didn't have the nerve to try the 'Asian Experience' but I did drink the Cherry flavored one and it was pretty good. I'm totally glad I didn't break into the Goji Berry badness.

You need to try Brawndo the Thirst Mutilator!!!

Beverly. I dare you to try this drink (evil laugh).
Reply to this
Well Brad a Goji berry is the berry to overdose on if you want to loose weight. there's a while diet devoted to taking a shot of goji berry juice daily.
I'd give it a go I have a fair decent sweet tooth. Sadly we don't get it here in Australia
Reply to this
DUDE! I saw these at Wal-Mart a few months ago and was like, dude. WTF??? ROFL!
Reply to this
Just want to mention that there are THREE flavors of this-- The one you had, the cherry, and fscking Root Beer.
ROOT BEER!
They reviewed all but the Root Beer over at Agony Booth back when they first came out, and... 'Fire Down Below' Seagal doesn't begin to cover it.
Awesome videos as always.

When you mentioned cordyceps as an ingredient I almost lost it...I was laughing so hard. I guess the fungi equivalent of Cronenberg's Videodrome would find itself in a Seagal drink.
Reply to this
Lightning Bolt is defiantly an acquired taste. My Walmart carried it a few years ago, and I got hooked after tree or four cans (I'm off the Segal now thank God). But I wasn't the only one; I had a couple who drove over an hour to my store to pick up two or three cases every other week. Their hearts were crushed when we stopped carrying the LB.
You mention hearing the other flavor is better, it wasn't. The other flavor was a cherry, but it was simply added to the original recipe, and the contrast did not serve it well.
I came to the conclusion that Gogi berries are in fact Chinese olives. If you open a can of black olives, and sniff or even taste the the juice, and do the same with a can of Mr. Segal's LB, you will notice a striking similarity.
Keep up the great work, Brad!

Is something wrong with this episode? I've tried playing it about fifty times, but it just keeps saying, "Sorry, we're unable to play this episode."

Never mind, it's okay now. I haven't watched it yet, but I'm sure it'll be just as good as your other work. Keep it up, man.

Dude, my bro and I ran across this stuff once a few years ago. We got them for the halibut, the red and blue cans. We got knocked out... that after taste is a killer.
