Kwesi being excited to do this with his nieces and nephews is the most adorable and beautiful thing haha!
He seems like the best uncle EVER, those kids are so lucky
Kwesi is so clearly a try guy but I understand that can't be a thing. But no matter how many times I see it he's so perfect
@@sparky082 Imo the Try Guys are always gonna just be Eugene, Zach, and Keith, who are the mascots of the business. Everyone else is part of the Try Team, which is no lesser than a Try Guy, but still not a Try Guy. There will never truly be a new Try Guy.
@@-VoDkAsVengeance- idk i disagree, if they made kwesi an official try guy i would be stoked. he fits in so well with the other three and it just makes sense. i get that the og try guys have a secial place in our hearts but i dont think that change is a bad thing, i think adding kwesi as a try guy would be such a good move
I love ANY TIME it’s just Kwesi and Zach because when the two of them are together there’s essentially suddenly nothing but half a brain cell just vibing in empty space with copious giggling and it’s delightful.
Honestly that’s me on a normal Tuesday afternoon and I love it XD
Kwesi commits so hard. His optimism and willingness to try and really inspiring.
I'm so glad that this older try guys format is coming back. Episodes are quick, fun, easy and they're actually trying new things
They mentioned that they've done so much its hard for them to try anything new
Yeah this was a good one!
Kwesi was immediately nailing posing and using the tail, he looked natural and good as hell. He even swam upside down, that's freaking awesome!
She’s an archer and a mermaid?! She’s officially the coolest person on the planet ❤
Right??? I was just like what else can she do?!?
I know, right? I wanna be friends haha!
@@laurenhunter-mercado9813She’s secretly Barbie 🤫
Im curious to see if they’ll have her on another video, showing off another talent of hers! She seems so cool 🤩🤩
Kwesi's vibe in this video is everything. "We outside!" His excitement is so infectious.
Inner child immediately released. Those giggles of pure joy have me giggling right along
Him popping up with "I went for a flip!" haha
Kwesi, Joyce & Johnny are my favourite guests 😂❤
Zach inspires me.. My parents said if i get 50K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging..
@@namantherockstar stop you said the same shit the last video multiple times under different comment sections 😑
They both killed it!
I'm especially impressed by Kwesi, he only knew how to swim for a couple months and he was serving such confident poses, and such elegance too!
His niece must be so proud of him!
Please make hobby homies a thing where zack and kwesi go around doing hobbies.
I’m not sure if hobby homies was a joke or if this will actually be a full on series, but I loved every minute of this and would love to see more hobby homies in the future!!!
also catalina was *on it* with that safety float, she did an amazing job and I loved seeing her back! this seems like such a fun job. I loved her puns!
yesss, best video in a while I love the 2 of them together, and seeing Zach genuinely laugh so much is lovely
Kwesi is literally perfect to be a merman, he got the looks already
Kwesi: I don't like wet
Also Kwesi: I don't like swimming
ALSO KWESI: IMMA BE A MERMAN
I cant believe Eugene and Johnny missed this!!! I can just see Eugene serving evil sea witch and Johnny giggeling.
I can see Johnny giving us bashful mermaid
OMG yassss Johnny could be the sweet-looking one lounging on the rocks (luring the sailors in) and then Eugene giving the full evil siren/sea witch as you say 💗
ikr?? eugene would've SLAYED!!
Eugene as Ursula!
Eugene has missed most the Try videos, so I'm not surprised. I know he has other projects, but 🤷♂️
Seeing Kwesi connecting with his inner child is so sweet
I loved how Kwesi was feeling himself during the modeling part! He was absolutely killing it and he knew it! So much fun to watch.
As a profesional mermaid this makes me absolutely more then happy. The guys did their best 😂 they did great honestly. I love how they are doing this and bringing attention to other professional mermaids
I'm a trans man, been on hormones 3+ years and I'm post top surger. I've never been curvy but my dysphoria tells me that my hips and tummy are still too shapely.
But I always love videos when Zach is shirtless. Because Zach is a handsome guy and is so cool. I see a cis man shaped just like me and I'm just happy to see representation that I so heavily relate to.
So man-to-man: from one nerdy pot head that went to film school to another. Thank you for being so open, honest, and doing your best to build confidence. It's inspiring
I've been missing this kind of Try Guys content for so long. Nothing would have prepped me for trying Mermaid School lmao. Kwesi's pure joy is the cherry on top. What a blessing in a person
Watching Kwesi forget about his fear to serve in front of the camera was amazing! He was working it!
I love watching Kwesi put 200% into whatever he's trying. More Kwesi and Zach, plz! 👍🏼
I am so here for the guys trying ever increasingly niche schools. First, forest preschool. Now, mermaid school. Who knows what's next!
I love how Kwesi seemed to be more comfortable with the water by the end of the day. This looks super fun.
Kwesi's excitement at putting on the tail is everything.
Zach is absolutely adorable and I can never get enough of him...
But Delighted Kwesi with that childlike joy was EVERYTHING.
Omg kwesi’s niece teaching him how to swim is the cutest fun fact
That’s adorable coming from someone who can’t swim either 🥺😢
And it was only late last year that he learned, wow!! Go Kwesi!!
I’ve had a little girl tried to teach me to swim once and she wasn’t the greatest teacher but she was persistent and never gave up on me lmao
And the fact that he only learned to swim a few months ago and is now going swimming with a full on mermaid tail??? Pretty fucking cool and I’m proud of him 😂❤
the way I feel like the Try Guys are just soft launching Kwesi as the new fourth member
As a hobbiest mermaid performer of 10 years, I'm so happy you guys tried this and took it seriously, and you killed it with the photos!!
I'm so grateful for the Try Guys and their intention to learn and be curious. That's what the whole channel is about and that's why I've been here since the beginning. Kwesi is AWESOME. Please keep him.
as someone who's nearing thirty and doesn't know how to swim, kwesi admitting he only learned how to swim last year is so inspiring
My grandma learnt to swim at 23, she then went on to teach her two kids as well as a bunch of their friends, me and my sister and my two cousins. It's never too late and she used to say it's the only sport that learning can save your life, which might not technically be true if you count stuff like boxing but you get what she meant.
I freaking love Kwesi. When he said, I can't wait to give this to my niece for her birthday, and it's that picture of his eyes very wide and intense, I couldn't stop laughing at the idea of giving her that picture lol
Kwesi looking at Zach while covering him in lube and saying “we went to film school” before bursting into giggles had me cracking up
Lmaoo fr it was so funny
o also memento mori!
God, Kwesi''s vibe is such a joy. He was so nervous, but stayed so positive! Kwesi, TELL ME YOUR SECRETS.
Catalina is so good in front of a camera! Her energy is infectious!
This was without a doubt one of my favorite Try Guys videos every. Kwesi and Zach have such an infectious charm about them, and Catalina was such a wonderful teacher. Glad y'all got to have this experience.
Kwesi fanning Zach with his tail was hilarious!
Kwesi flapping his tail made me laugh so hard! 0:18 & 4:48 This was difficult for both of them for different reasons and they both did fantastic! The couple shot was so amazing, I really hope it's blown up and framed in the office!
FUN FACT: my great grandma used to be a "burlesque mermaid" in the 50's, she went by "Sirena the Underwater Ballerina".
My great grandma baked a thousand pies a year every year, for several decades, for her church's bake sales. But honestly, being a burlesque mermaid is way cooler!
There are vintage ads from your great grandma on facebook! :O
That's so fabulous!
@@charliesghost she was in the Chicago area- I looked up her name on Google and a photo popped up that looked similar to my Busha, she said it is her.... but she also has alzheimers so the family isn't entirely sure if that photo is indeed my great grandma. But I'm pretty sure the news clipping is about her!
@@MavonEast I can barely sort out how to peel an apple without cutting my finger. Your grandma is a badass. I love this ❤❤
As someone who is very hydrophobic due to almost drowning as a toddler, BIG props to Kwesi getting so comfortable with his head under the water!
It's a massive triumph. My grandma learnt as an adult and even though she loved swimming she was still a little nervous about her head going under water most of her life. She finally got comfortable with it in her 60s and went snorkeling which was a massive thing for her being in the open with no safety net.
This is so wholesome, the boys are so excited and are clearly so happy
Kwesi's energy in this put a big smile on my face. His pure joy is contagious and I hope if he actually does take this up as a hobby that we can see an update video on this
I just can't get over the obvious friendship these two have. It's adorable
I love seeing zach slowly gain confidence in his ability and kwesi's infectious excitement and glee 😂❤
Zach: We're merpeople now.
Kwesi: **proceeds to make seal noises**
9:33
This moment sent me 😂
Kwesi is my absolute favourite unofficial try guy. He is so great and his vibes with Zack are just the best
I love how encouraging and supportive she is, especially since Kwesi just learned how to swim.
So proud of both of them for facing their discomforts. Kwesi looked fierce. Zach rocked that hair once he got a feel for it.
Kwesi and Zach are my favorite combo of smiles and laughter. And chaos. Just pure happiness. 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
The amount of positivity surrounding these two is very powerful
When you realize that Kwesi fits perfectly in any collab with ANY of the guys (except for he-who-shall-not-be-named). Love you, Kwesi!
Kwesi needs to be the new permanent member
@@ajdean2974He might not want that.
@@jmason1770 yeah, completely fair if he doesn't. But I can dream
@@jmason1770 he or them? They did say that they would bring on different people to fill that void but also if anyone else is busy
Voldemort? 😂
I'm so happy for Kwesi that his niece has taught him to swim, or at least survive in a pool. It looks like he's really enjoying the freedom of swimming and playing in the water. He's hooked now! 🪝
The Guys had so much Fun being Mermen. ❤🧜🏻♂️🧜🏿♂️
I love Kwesi, he’s so precious
Watching wholesome grown men play mermaids for the first time is something I didn't have on the docket for today
I love Zach and Kwesi together hahaha such pure chaos
It’s Kwesi’s world and we’re all just blessed to be living in it.
Kwesi was SERVING looks underwater. You can see him totally feeling it and I love that for him ❤
Kwesi's delight is infectious and I am SO happy for him omg
The fact that Kwesi only learned how to swim a couple of months ago from shooting this is wild! His confidence is incredible, he did so well!
When Zach went under the water for the photo shoot part and he opened his eyes for the first time. Kwesi’s reaction where he was slapping the tail in the water and screaming in joy made me so happy and laugh haha😂😊😃🫶🏻❤️
The Try Guys just out here living out our “Let’s Play Mermaids” dream 😂❤
wish we could’ve seen Keith and Eugene do this too. Eugene would’ve absolutely killed it 😆
and Keith would be devastated...for some reason or another 😆
@@ilianagarcia7012Keith would've taken the Trident from anyone else who had it
I feel like Keith would’ve been vibing as a pretty mermaid
i LOVE how excited Kwesi was during this ENTIRE shoot!!!🥰🥰 and congrats on overcoming another mental block Zach!!!👏👏
I loved how Kwesi thought he was eating his last and it would've been a PB&J and he was just chill with it
This has got to be one of my favorite of the new try guys videos!! Kwesi and Zach both equally excited is adorable, and I absolutely loved the puns!
Every video with Kwesi makes me love him more and more.
Zach looks like a daighter taking her fathers trident and avenging his death. The pain, the beauty, the dispairrrr ❤😂
Kwesis photo is giving “Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty”
"It's merMAN!!"
😂😂😂
What is this?? A school for ANTS????
@@nailinthefashionit has to be at least three times as big as this!!
I love the addition of all the new faces. I have just been wondering lately if we’ll get Keith, Eugene and Zack all together in one video trying things again? I just love their chemistry.
I live for Kwesi's happy giggles. It gives me strength.
Kwesi lounging in the tail while patting his feet is a mood!
I love Kwesi's energy in every video 🥰
I never would have guessed Kwesi didn't feel comfortable swimming if he hadn't said it! Well done, guys, now I want to try this, too 🧜🏿♂️🧜🏼♀️🧜❤❤❤!!!
Uncle Kwesi is going to be permanently beloved after getting his niece and nephew mer-lessons 😍
Lol only once Lennon stops touching things under the sink 😂
As someone who has done underwater shooting this is incredibly difficult and they did such a great job!
I’m a couple days behind, but loveee the 2 of them together, this video is one of the best in a while and seeing Zach genuinely laugh so much is lovely!! 🤍
kwesi's excitement when he put on the tail was everything
Kewski is finally living his "you want to play mermaids" moment and we are loving it!!!!
Just wanted to say to Zach: you've been killing it lately and you should be super, duper proud of yourself. I always love your energy in videos and am always super curious to here your insights on being a creative, not only because they're so well thought out, but you put things into a new perspective that really motivate me to work on stuff I'm proud of. You're an inspiration to me. Love ya
It's seriously impressive that Kwesi went all-in on swimming with a mertail less than a year after learning to swim.
Im so glad they had such a good time, being a mermaid looks really fun 🥰
Damn Kwesi seemed like a natural!! This is so wholesome 🥺
I totally feel Kwesi on his fear of swimming. 😅 Kudos to him for working through it for this video!
D'aw, I hope Dylan had a great time being a mermaid with her uncle Kwasi. It's so sweet how excited he was about the idea.
Kwesi’s joy is so contagious!!
Zach describing the appeal of cosplay like "im not here to have a good time im here to serve looks" is so real
Eugene has definitely rubbed off on him 😂
This was so good, kwesi is a natural the second pic with the eyes was everything
I feel like Kwesi is gonna do this mermaid shit in his spare time. He's LOVIN it🤣
Kwesis face of PURE JOY when he first gets the tail all the way on 🙊🥰 I’m so happy with them
I can't believe Kwesi learned to swim just two months before this. He fully committed to this mermaid video - swimming underwater and opening his eyes. As someone who has swum her whole life, I can say that I still hate having my head underwater and I don't think I've ever opened my eyes under water!
Damn Kwesi, this was an awesome video for you! You really shined in it!
As someone who works at a pool, PLEASE do not bring mermaid tails to the public pool. They can be dangerous because you can't use your legs like normal, ESPECIALLY for kids
I wouldn't say don't bring them. I would say don't bring extras for others or let others use your tail! I always check in with the public pool staff and ask them if it's okay for me to bring my monofin/tail in first. I explain how long I've been swimming in it and explain what I do for my own safety. I offer to show them me swimming in it first so that they can see and make a judgement from there. I've had a lot of cautious or concerned people but they're usually okay with it. I have taught people in my monofin before but only people who show me they can swim well first and never before having them just sit on the shallow end stairs in it and after a discussion with them about how it is not for everyone and can be dangerous because you can't just split your legs to stand.
Rather than telling people not to do this perhaps education of the staff on the safety use of tails and monofins and what to look out for would be a better option to start with! Lots of mers and mer schools offer these types of classes for free to public swim places!
@@3dTales While I appreciate how kind and respectful you are about using your monofin, I'm curious where you expect the money and resources for this training and increased lifeguard attention to come from? There's a reason most public pools say no breath holding exercises unless you're in a specialty class where there are experts there to provide that additional attention.
Survival of the fittest boiii
Mermaid tails can be used with proper training and equipment. I consider it the same as scuba gear, there are ways to be safe but I wouldn't just hand people gear and expect them to be safe.
There are even mermaid certifications you can now get from PADI and NAUI to demonstrate that you are properly trained in mermaid equipment.
Kwesi is having so much fun and I’m living for it
If Zach’s looking for a new hobby, then I’d recommend him trying crochet. He seemed to enjoy knitting when he tried it, but I think the excitement will hit through the roof when he discovers what amigurumi is
I think this is the most adorable kwesi has been so far, and that's saying something. He is SO. EXCITED. I can't even ❤
I’m so proud of Kwesi dealing with being nervous in the water. It was so sweet how happy he was trying it and how excited he was to share it!
As someone who had an absolute OBSESSION with mermaids from age 2 to 13 and saved up $300 to buy my own tail + monofin as a child (it was fabric) this is the COOLEST THING EVER!!! I used that thing until it literally fell apart, I even taught my mom and her friends at pool parties how to swim in it. Most of the time they couldnt really get the hang of it but I honestly preferred swimming with it on rather than off and this video is bringing it all back 😭
Two grown men giggling about wearing merfins… I love it!
Its been a while since I felt attracted by the try guys videos. This one caught my attention and Im glad. This two are great together .
Love these two great series idea they are a hoot
Gotta love the Try Guys for jumping into new experiences wholeheartedly 💗 Zach was serving with that pink wig & eye contact 👀 An extra shoutout to Kwesi, he’s such a joyful and radiant person seeing him learn to be a merman was everything 👏🏽✨👏🏽✨👏🏽✨
Oh the photos came out really cool! I love the hobby homies lol hope to see more!
