Chief of Police at Elizabeth City State University. Thank you for watching our Active Shooter video. While active shooter situations rarely occur on college campuses and on workplaces, should an active shooter situation occur, our goal is that through this video, it will enhance our ability in keeping the campus safe. Additionally, we have a strong relationship and partnership with local law enforcement, the City of Elizabeth City Police Department and the Pasquita County Sheriff's Office, which enhances our ability to address crime and breaches of peace on the campus. Again, on behalf of the men and women of Elizabeth City State University Police, I wanna thank you for watching our Active Shooter video. Active shooter situations are unpredictable and develop quickly. The initial response of law enforcement is to stop the shooter and reduce harm to victims. Because active shooter situations usually take place before law enforcement arrives, persons must be mentally and physically prepared to respond and protect themselves from harm. What do you do in an active shooter situation? Run. Take notice of nearest exits in the facility you visit or are located in. And if an escape route exists, evacuate the facility. Be sure to have an escape route planned. Evacuate, even if others refuse to leave. Leave belongings behind. Help others to evacuate, but do not wait on them. Prevent others from entering the area where the active shooter may be. After exiting the building and in a safe location, call 911 or ECSU University Police. 335-3266. When police enter and begin to secure the building, keep hands raised above head and follow all commands. If you cannot get out, find a safe location where the active shooter cannot see or find you. Your hiding area should be out of the shooter's line of sight and protect you from possible gunfire. Examples include door, closet, or behind a desk. But never trap yourself in an area that does not provide an escape route. To help keep an active shooter away from you, take precautions as locking doors if possible. If not, block or secure the door with a device, such as a belt, chairs, desks, or heavy furniture. Close blinds and turn off lights. Turn off all cell phones and noise-making devices. Hide behind objects and remain silent. Fight. If an active shooter is in the area and you cannot run or hide, your last resort is to fight. Once you encounter the shooter, do not stop until the shooter is disarmed or subdued. This will be a fight for your life and should be taken that way. When law enforcement arrives, their first and only priority is to take down the shooter. Rescues and injured person's needs are not addressed at this time. They will conduct search in an attack formation. If it is safe to do so, call 911 and provide any information related to the situation, description, weapons, persons in your area, and location. When police arrive, put down any object in hand and raise hands above your head and follow their instructions. Do not make any quick or sudden movements. Avoid pointing or asking officers questions. Thank you for taking the time to view our active shooter training video. This is a simulated training video consisting of participants who are not actors, rather, or volunteer, parent and or former students, faculty, and staff. While active shooter situations rarely occur on college campuses, your participation in this training is vitally important. The men and women at Campus Police hope that this video will enhance your safety, as your safety is our number one priority.


Welcome everybody in the room and on zoom it's the select board meeting in the town of Rochester on August 28th and we have agenda has been posted in three public places and on the website interested parties have been emailed so we can move forward with the meeting the first thing on the agenda is the minutes from the August 14 meeting they look pretty representative of what happened then so I've moved to approve those unless you guys have changes no changes I second all in favor I got that and we have the Treasurer's July report and that's you know beginning of the bringing in taxes a little bit to chew on there thank you for putting that together it looks fine to me so I move to approve that I second it all in favor all right all right and we also have a application for use of the park and justine how do you pronounce her last name Kavakis that's right I found September 24th from two to eight for a community potluck and everyone is to benefit just a community gathering does not specify which part but I would think that would be interesting to know which part but I would think either one of the parks yeah we would approve by the part yeah yeah so it'd be good I'd move to approve and then we'll ask her to clarify which one is the 11 so yeah I don't see any conflicts with that or actually sorry it's the 10th 10th excuse me what's on the 10th harvest that no harvest feathers tonight it's Saturday September night okay somewhere in there I know no I just I have a question about this justine thing did you say from 2 to 8 p.m. yes okay thank you sorry to bother you no problem never had the end mosquito well maybe the mosquitoes be gone so I've moved to approve second all in favor all right okay and Tony you've got any um we missed you last last meeting but welcome back okay let's see part of the reason I'm here is that the library wants you guys to reimburse us for the money that we gave to the guy who checked out the roof and the attic the rip and I can't even we talk about this already I thought we're gonna prove the pain yeah not the attic inspection no that was another film that you guys did but this is different that we just recently paid so we paid it already so we paid it so no I apologize I did but I paid it from the library account and they're asking to be reimbursed what would seem I don't know how much that is do you remember it's almost $500 right I think it's 480 maybe okay okay yeah it was last month I think that it was on one of their warrants and Barb had stated that she was hoping that this that you guys would reimburse her and requested that I pay the bill now to get it out of the way and then that they would come to the select board meeting asking for reimbursement so I don't know if you want me to do that from the building reserve or what you would like to do yeah that's probably where it comes from yeah that sounds good what do they find things were pretty good apparently yeah better than we expected there was that little dip on the side you can see up in the upstairs place he didn't think that was anything to worry about at this point he did a couple things and the rafters in good shape so not a lot of water damage okay all right so so be it so may I ask a question regarding the library this is Robert Franks sure what was the cost to replace the roof on top of the library and then include the plywood that had to be put forth in the substrate figure that we can give off the top of our heads we need some research to make sure that we're accurate that was through a donation anyway right yeah so I think the roof has been put forth the substrate has been put forth and Kristen you're saying you you have to investigate the cost well that was actually done paid for by an anonymous donation to the library we didn't pay for that so we don't the cost was nothing yeah to the town the cost was zero okay but the cost had to be run through the books of the Rochester town no no they didn't yes yes oh so so basically it was a free roof correct yes okay thank you yeah that's that's a nice one thank you whoever you are out there that did that thank you yeah and cuz it's been raining it's good to have a new roof yeah if painting the place would be that great yeah getting somebody to paint it's hard thing well you price paint me with a hundred bucks yeah unless you want me to do the library report I really don't have much to say except for our new director has been doing a great job yeah the thing on the park seems to be very popular and she has a lot of things coming up later sounds good yeah reading the paper keep reading the paper keep reading all right thank you don't have any anything new in the highlight I guess we were talking about the West Hill bridge is moving forward even though we haven't got any bills from it yet that's correct well the only bills we've received is from the compaction testing that right towns paying out right so we they've got the deck on board that's finished he's doing the rails this week I think he has to pour those I saw a couple big culverts on a truck up there this morning yeah they're gonna put in a 24 inch culvert between route 73 and the bridge for you know runoff this year that flooded and where their stuff is that that had some bonding there so they're gonna we the job required at 18 but we talked him into a 24 and he said he would so he's gonna put a new one in there he expects to be done sometime mid-september so he's way ahead of schedule so even with all the rain even with all the rain he's done well and John's working on he did the Kennedy Drive a little bit of wash there that we had this summer he put some rock in there and they're working on the bingo bridge he was gonna redo the some there we got permission from the chair and board to get in the brook up there a little bit to restack the the head wall coming into the the bridge because it was starting to tilt in so we're doing that I have a question about that did the bridge and bingo did that have was that affected because of the storm we had or just old no it was it's tilting in anyway but it wasn't it's because it's on a class 4 section of the road it's not really can't you know it's not FEMA directed or any of that so and we're gonna do just a little work in between he doesn't want to covert in there before the bridge he just wants a speed bump so it the water bar so the water will drain better there and not pond that's causing that so they were gonna be working on that this week yeah we continue to get pretty lucky with all the storm damage we've been darn lucky but we've done I gotta compliment the highway crew they've done a good job and John's done real well as far as keeping up with making the repairs and and putting in oversized places culverts and stuff where he can which is good so that's helped a lot but we're just one disaster away from a disaster that's all there is to it Terry to have that chance to go visiting anybody looking for some pups yet yeah we found one on site three but I haven't found any for sight for you but is there's so long as I thought is there a solution and did you work out a solution with I'm going down this week and Cody and them found it and I told them this I would go back because he didn't want right make a commitment and I think we laid the pipe up through there but I got Dr. Ray so I'm thinking it might be a pipe a drain pipe that goes bank that maybe we could give them just to dig it up and tie into it would be really cheap or inexpensive for them but I don't it's nothing that we got paid for but I'm trying to find that alternative form before I go back right a reasonable solution right right again mother just pumping it outside right doesn't make all that sense but I haven't found one for which is bugging me terrible we've been a few houses have you had any issues with people or they been good good and Cody said they they kind of knew they were in wrong but he said they didn't give him a hard time so I said what I told him I said anybody give you a hard time just turn on leave and that's how we sent two guys so you know yeah yeah it says you know there's probably just take pictures can take a picture of it and I said we'll just I'll be looking some alternatives before I go back in yeah because it's going up now because the ground water so yeah well no the way training but we're still pumping way too much I'm for I noticed that in the electric bills for the sewer sites too oh I imagine the power bills are yes they're spike three and four number one yeah plus I think you got a reading please come up anyway she thanks not my fault I can tell you for the minutes each day so I know it's gonna be going up but other than that I guess we're doing pretty well now first a hydrant I was gonna wait I've waited on the gardens and stuff so that's my way to wait for the end of September that's probably the best time. Thank you. Miss you have Jeff in there? How about some any updates on the grant? I just we had our meeting today our recovery scope meeting today with FEMA they came here to the office and met with us we went over the roads and the damage and presented all of our documents and spreadsheets to them so starting in September they'll be in touch with us like every other week we'll move forward we have minimal you know but um it looks like we will be able to get some help did they put a dollar value on it yet or did we put a dollar value on it? No not yet and we're still working out some things and we're looking of where we can combine roads and sites into one so still working on some stuff Carlos is helping us with that he's very good that's it. Okay didn't have anything listed under the old business do you guys have anything on your minds and talk about? No. No we've got um anyone out in the public have something they want to talk about? No it looks quiet. No it looks quiet. I just heard a sound. Robert is that you? Can you guys hear him okay? No. No. Robert is there any way for you to unmute your computer and then mute your phone because you've got that echo. Okay hold up his phone. Yeah it's not coming out of the owl. And now you're on mute Robert your computer is not muted it. Oh it did. Yeah. So are we good now? Well yeah we're good. Yeah you're good. Yes yes go ahead Robert we can hear you. Okay so I'd like to bring up a few subjects. I don't know whether you people are advised of or in the knowledge of the accidents that happened on in the Gulf last week Monday. There's a major major question that I have and the question is does anyone in the room or you know present know the cost of the signage that was put down Bethel Mountain Road to Rochester. Does anyone know the cost of that? What do you what signage are you implying there the 40 mile an hour speed limit signs? No the signs that were put up two years ago I'm asking if anyone if Julie or Kristen or June or anyone knows the cost of what it what the cost was to put the signs up that that mean nothing.  Yeah we probably look it up and see if it is broken out signage. Is that for the culvert job? What are you talking about? No probably Bethel Mountain Road itself. The mountain. The lower section. What's that? The signs on the state put up the signs. Excuse me. Is he talking about the signs that say Bethel Mountain Road is not a good road for big trucks? Is that it? No that's the sign on the Bethel side. The signs on your side do not direct anyone to anything but the town of Rochester or Mr. Bump. I'm asking you guys for the number that that was put forth to the taxpayers to pay for the signage that lead people to nowhere. Don't don't know that number off top of our head. Would you like me to share the number with you? Oh so you know it so and then you didn't need us to answer your question what was what's your point Robert? Well I would suggest that you dial Nancy Willie's number and ask her what what she knows what the cost was. So you said you had a couple issues you wanted to talk about what what else is there? No we've got a major problem and I'm gonna address it right now. You Leslie Hendricks don't know the cost of what we paid to put the signs up on the side of the Rochester side of the mountain. Yeah I don't memorize that I could look it up you know but not at this moment but it's four years ago. It was four years ago I don't I don't know I don't. Well I would suggest that Patty Harvey take a guess at what it cost. I wouldn't say it publicly and on camera and on record without looking it up and giving you a hard number. I'm sorry Patty is is not available her voice is off. So I don't have the the figure written down right here in front of me. I don't have that figure written down at my fingertips today but I could get it to you tomorrow. Well would you like me to share what the price was for the taxpayers? That's totally up to you. Yeah it was $50,000. Yep. And guess what two people were killed or more up in the Gulf and they couldn't find their way to Route 89. There's no trailblazing signs to Route 89 to get to Dartmouth to to survive a person from Moortown, Watesfield, all the way down the valley all the way to Pittsfield until you find a sign that can get you to Route 89 to get you to Dartmouth to save a life. Don't smirk. I'm just I'm I'm confused. This is an incident that happened in Warren. So I'm not quite sure exactly what Bethel Mountain Road has to do with it. Patty your microphone is not proper. Kristen should be put forth to make certain that you are communicating. What Pat was saying is that you're referring to an accident that happened in Warren which is the three towns north of Rochester and I'm Let me just tell you this. The town of Rochester has ignored access to Route 89 on the park coming into the town of Rochester and moving people forth to get either an emergency. People don't know where to go. Well I think the ambulance drivers do know where to go. But the ambulance could be arriving late to save a life. You don't understand. Route 89 signs have to be put forth in the town of Rochester to tell people where to go. Whether over Bethel Mountain or down to Route 107 to get to Dartmouth to save a life. I have been in contact with the state a couple of different times on that Robert and I've asked for signs to be put just north of Rochester Village directing traffic to 100 to 107 to I 89 and I've requested that they put them down at the junction of 73 where they come over to try to alleviate some of the traffic on the Bethel Mountain Road and they have refused to do so. They don't see the necessity to it. The first sign you'll see directing traffic to 89 is off 100 to 107 right there in Stockbridge and that's the only thing you can do. We can't address the signs on Route 100. The state it's their jurisdiction but I have requested them. We haven't done anything with signs leading to I 89 over the mountain due to the mountain road itself. It's not a conducive to that through traffic, even though we get that through traffic through GPS. That is totally respectable, but people need to get access out of the into the town and out of the town. Whether they're on GPS or using a map, they have to know what which way to go. And if it's saving a life, everyone needs to wake up. I would say if it's saving a life, Robert, they need to go to Gifford. And that does not involve I 89. You know, I'm yelling as loud as I can. Can you take? Is that any better? Well, I think Chris could help you go over that for him. You can yell out command. I think it's really interesting that you guys are laughing. I would say that. All emergency vehicles unless you're going in a helicopter, go to Gifford. That is that is the first point that an ambulance goes to. So having signs to point to I 89 for emergency services. I don't believe that were will would appreciate that because they typically go to Gifford first. Well, maybe you should think about that because there was there was a wonderful woman that was rescued by dark to go to Albany. So good luck Well, perhaps we should have signs on how to get to Albany as well. Then I don't I don't quite understand the basis for where you want to have signs that go to Dartmouth. Well, it's not one sign that can direct direct people to the proper route to save a life or to deliver a baby. Well, then I think you should be asking for signs to go to Gifford Hospital because that is the first point that I don't care what hospital is. People need direction. And if Frank and Leslie want to exclude people going over the mouth care. I just want people to know that where the route to save a life or deliver a baby will be. So there's there's a major problem with this. And you know what? I'm going to make this real clear to Frank, to Leslie, to Patty Harvey. I'm calling the governor tomorrow. And I'm going to have him come down through and say, Governor, we need access and and accessibility. Forget GPS. Just we need to save lives. I don't you guys complain about the lack of an ambulance and white river and people getting over to save a life. Christian, you looked away. I see that. Camera's working good. Okay. All right. So noted. So noted. No. Yes. We're going to make it so. Yes. Okay. Hey, Robert. Robert, you've made your point. What's the next one? What's the next one? You're upset with the lack of signage towards route 89 because you see it as being a danger and we're holding public comment to three minutes. And I think we've gone generously over that at this point, unless you have another topic that you wanted to mention. Well, I want to make I want to understand the status of the reduction of 50 miles an hour from the Bethel Mountain Road on the Rochester side to the Bethel Mountain on the on the Bethel side. What's the status? It's posted. It's posted. It's posted at 40 miles an hour. Was it posted? John did it last month. When was it? July 17. That's when you want to go up and look at the Bethel Mountain and people are coming over the mountain at 40 to 70 miles an hour. Yeah, the signs are there, but they're they don't govern people's feet on the gas pedal. I mean, we have it is now signed and then now you can get a bigger ticket. But that's the status of the road is that it is now legally posted for 40 miles an hour. John said he put those signs up in July. He's going to fast.  If you drive it four times a day, Robert, you ought to see it. You ought to see them. But that's the status to get the signs up with the people, in fact, the McIntyre and other people along the road. I don't understand. Yep. Okay. I do want to say one thing. And I'm sorry that the goldfish point on the point I want to make is that data and Cooter are doing a fabulous job. They really are. And I don't know who directs them every morning, but Cooter and data are doing a great job in Rochester and Teddy to and Teddy to yeah. You know, lastly, I'm just gonna say this. I was in the scientist business, doing hospitals, Dartmouth, Unique trailblazing signs, road speed signs for a long time. Unique give me a give me a Bentley College in Boston. And we took very serious concern of moving people, moving people that need help. And it's a very complex thing. So when you visit Dartmouth next time, figure, just look at the science and look at the science behind it. All right. Thank you. So I want to thank everyone for listening to me. But I'm very sad about the loss of life in the past. Yep. God bless everyone is okay. Onward. Onward. Thank you. Thank you. Anyone else have anything they'd like to say then I'd like to move to adjourn. I second on favor. Okay.


So you are tired of the AI giving you the wrong pose, not a problem. Again, shout outs to eager passion for showing me this trick. If you've been using AI, you'll probably notice that if you try and describe a pose to the machine, it very rarely looks exactly the way you imagine. But with novel AI, you can cheat the system by posing a 3D model and taking a screenshot. Then when you upload that picture to novel AI, when you type in your prompt, it will automatically build your character around the existing pose. So once you have your mannequin posed, just build your character around it. Could literally not be any easier. Hope that helps and as always, I hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.


Multiple of those, I don't even, I don't know. They're not all up here, I got more downstairs. I rock my kicks. I'm not ashamed. I do have an ice box. Okay. So those are gonna, I wore these a ton today. These were my loading in, loading out sneaker con shoe today. I got two more up here over there. It's crazy how there's like the coating over it and it like separates us. People like wear it like you can see right here. Come. Yeah. Bread toe. Isn't it crazy how those are like low key sitting when they came out? And yes, I wear, there you go. That's beautiful, right? I feel like you make a great intention to make it look like that vintage look, like wear it just so hard so I can make it look like it's 1985 again. No, it's just being irresponsible. He'd be up there, like I'm hooping every day. And again, who I was, I had a gentleman come up today, you know when I was wearing the red October's and he's like, you're wearing them. And I'm like, look, you just, to each their own. I know some people would rather keep them real clean. And like, that's great. If you want, I just, at the end of the day, I want to enjoy them. I want to wear them. I want to have fun with them. It's a shoe. Yeah. I'll be like, I don't, I'm the mid, I'm in the middle of both. Like I'm gonna wear it, but I'm also like, I'm not tiptoeing the whole time. I'm just like riding, I feel like I'm in the middle. Like, I don't know, it's hard to explain. The 2009, like, I don't know. Not my favorite. Retro one, high era. It's, I mean, it's a bread. It's cool. It's just, I'm not, the quality on these were not great. Did you keep the Celtics colorway? Ah, no. No. It's like, I ain't rocking with the Celtics, man. No. I don't mind it. Are you like still a Bulls fan? Oh yeah. Okay. Can you tell? But I don't know. Cause I feel like a lot of people have that, like it's from the past, you know what I'm saying? Like I was a Bulls fan in the nineties. So I kind of like, I'm still kind of a Bulls fan, but not really type thing. I'm at the United center, every other game. Okay. So you're committed? Every other game. I love it. I love my team, even with the Cubs, right? Went through years of pain with the Cubs. But I was at game seven, 2016. And it's like, all the pain goes away. It's like, it's worth it. It's fine. It's good. Be patient, enjoy it. Enjoy the hard times. It makes the great times that much better. See, it's hard for me because I live in Portland. So like, I just got the Blazers. I know.  No, I'm a Bulls fan.  Yeah. I was a Bulls fan growing up. Like my whole family locked in. And then like, yeah, getting to the 2000s, it was like transitioning into that LeBron era, like finding that new identity in basketball. That's like, what am I rocking with? Cause yeah, technically we got a home team, but like it just was never like my thing for the Blazers. Yeah. I don't know. To see other people play against the Blazers. Got it. Most of the time. Got it. It's like that type of scenario. The thing is, is they do a great job of getting good talent. It's just getting over the hump. Yeah. Like this past season, just imagine if they had a, just a dominant shooting big. Right. Like what that would have done. Yeah. I mean, like, we're going to go down a rabbit hole. I'm going to stop. Right. Okay. So yeah. Give us some of the OGs right here. I know this is some of them. So I like how you got the tags in there too. It was like 1983 legend. Team convention. What is it? Oh yeah. Team convention. So a lot of people go like, Oh, do you have anything older than, you know, 85 or 84? 83 team legends. Super slept on. Yeah. It's a beautiful shoe. I actually do wear this one here and there. Are these like eBay finds? This one was, That's a good question. I don't think this one was eBay. This one might have been Foxtrot. Okay. Okay. I think this one was Foxtrot. Yeah. And I have a little science cause like I went to my buddy's sneaker event to display just so that people knew what the heck they were. Right. That's what's up. 86 team conventions. I think people are getting more appreciation for these cause they did these in every single like team color. So there's so many colors done in this. So if you were in a school, this was like the shoe though too. Right. Crazy. I think it's so. What do you think? What is the value on a shoe like this? I don't think there anything crazy, a few hundred. People literally can go out and find these crazy vintage collections and spend a couple of hundred bucks, a few hundred bucks and put together a nicely curated collection. Look how clean these are. I like that though. I really liked that a lot. Like, and it's crazy to see how the 85 one in particular has shot up just more and more and more. And it sucks because I remember like a thousand was a lot and it was like all these things and now it's just like these prices are starting to get insane. I know. I mean, even with I was blown away because. Yeah, even with the 94. Like, and here we'll start a debate. I want to see what's going on YouTube. Yep. All right. So YouTube, I would love to see a debate if you consider these 94s or 95s. Oh yeah. The traditionalists and historians are going to argue 95 all day because technically they were released in 95, but it doesn't matter. If you love them, that's all I care about. And this, I've been shocked at some of the prices on this lately. I want to say my good friends over at sneak city to get in a stage a shout out. Just up there a couple of weeks ago. They just had a DS pair listed. I don't remember, don't quote me, but I want to say it was around, like it was between four or five. Yeah, I just saw a 13 DS in Hawaii for four or 5,000. Yeah. Shocked. And they didn't even have the box and stuff. And I was like, the box is what makes it even doper. And then here's the, these are DS. So if you want to hold those, I'm going to make some room.  He put 95 on there. 95 braille one. Yeah. Just, you know, just to start some debates. Clean, yo. So DS, 95. 95. Look at that price. 11 and a half. This box, I love the box. Come on. Come on. I used to have a 12 in the Chicago and I had the box and all this stuff. And I loved it. And I got rid of it because I was in the phase of like getting rid of things that don't fit me. And then I just never got it back. The price kept going up and I'm like, what did I do? Again, if we all had the foresight to know what the heck was going to happen. But you want to just talk about nostalgia. Just all the models listed there. Just absolutely beautiful. So again, this was, this is one of my favorites. Like I say, most of the stuff I buy to wear, it will get to a very special shoe later because it's on that side of the room. Okay. With that, with that initially it was bought to wear. Okay. Even this one, because I'm always very particular about like making sure that everything's nice and soft and flexible, but then it's like, when are you going to see another DS? Yeah, exactly. So just going to keep, there we go. Got the drop season. Shout out container store. I absolutely love this shoe. Absolutely love this shoe. I'm not the type that feels like I need every single 85 colorway, it'd be nice. Shout out to my boy, Dmitri, that has every single one. And he, my people help me. There's only like what, three people with the whole set, right? Yeah, something like that. It's extremely small. It's low, low number. But just beautiful shoe. I wear this one quite a bit. And a lot of times, I mean it gets good reactions, but sometimes I'm also like, do people realize this is from 85? You know? Or is it some custom vintage or whatever? You don't see it too often. Chicago size 12. 85, Chicago, 11 and a half. Shout out round two. So when were you getting these and give us a perspective on price and time and era? Yeah. Because people see these now at the video and they're like, oh, those are worth so much. The movie just came out, the documentary, da, da, da. Like, I'm assuming you got these way before that. I started getting them before the last dance. Not too, too far, but like a year or two before. Which was a great timing. Exactly. My first pair that I ever got, we'll get to, I don't wanna get to it yet, but this was the second pair I got and I got it from round two in Chicago and beautiful condition. And I wear this one a lot since I bought it. And 900 bucks. 900 bucks. 900 bucks on that one. And was that like a good price at the time? Or was I like ooh. I was still concerned, hi. Because I went in, I grabbed it, I'm looking at it, I'm considering it. And I was like, I was pretty sure I was gonna buy it. But there was still part of me I was like, I don't know. Cause I was like, eh, it's a little soft right there. Like whatever. And then I noticed there was another guy behind me that was like, can I look at him? I'm like, I'm still looking at him, bro. Nah, the pressure. So. And again, the foresight, I wish, I always loved the shoe. I just always felt like they were even a little bit out of my price range when I was like a little bit younger. They still weren't terrible. But then I was like, I just gotta start getting them. Cause I love it. Now you got people offering you five times in a month. I know. Okay, so you got royals and breads down here too. Yep. Oh, I just love how the laces are like, got that kind of like purple look to it. Just the agent is just so clean. It's wasn't pretty dang good condition too. I love this one.  The patina on the laces on this one is pretty sick. Isn't it crazy? What's the difference on the sizing? Cause the height, like the cut on the height. Yeah, it's by factory. It's so wild how it's like that. And even like, look at the difference here between like this factory, this factory. I will say, I mean, there still was a difference here. This one, I did have a restoration on the collar. Cause it was so hard. That's the only one, out of all my 85s, the only one that is not original, like every other one has the original sole, original collar, everything. Gotcha. But a lot of the factories, you'll see differences. Gotcha. Man, okay. So we kind of covered the ones on this side. Let's take it to the little space jam era. The backside over here, I've seen some good OG colorway, some different stuff like that. Where do you go with the method of madness over here? I see we got containers down here on this side as well. There's really no method to the madness. This is, I have way too many dang shoes. And I need to start figuring out how to place them somewhere, so it's still a work in progress. But eventually I want to have it where like every single model is together. Okay. And these are just a lot of the ones I've had over the years, college, a little bit more recent. And yeah, I'm just, I just put them all here so I can just go quickly grab them. Well, I see some Air Force ones and stuff in here too. Yeah. Everybody got some forces in their collection. There's some old ones too. Give us a little memory lane. Yeah. These ones, I can't remember the exact year, on these ones, these are all seven. I mean, these really stood out to me just mainly because Cubsan. So, I don't know that's initially, but look at the quality on this. Right, yeah, I remember this era. Yeah. This is a good time. Oh, seven. Sock liner and everything. Ah, yeah. Oh, seven. Let's see, this one right here is, oh, three. Okay. Great quality again. Again, I'm a sucker for blue, like I said earlier. I love blues. This one right here. Ostrich. Yeah. Wow. Like, I sure remember what year was this one again. This is another kind of oldie, oh, six. So, I like the older ones, there's just nothing like them. Yeah. The quality, they were different. Those are nice. I got a pair. Since we're on the topic of Air Force ones, let me grab the JZ Blueprint samples. Oh, now we're talking. Yeah. Those are fire. Let me grab the other one. So, oh yeah, so you said you was getting into samples and PEs and different stuff. When did that kind of rise into the occasion where like, you know what, maybe I want to start exploring this world of collecting. It's only been, as far as like on the sample P side, it's only been a couple years, few years, started with the Oklahoma Four. I was actually at SneakerCon. I try to remember what year that was. That was 2020. Oklahoma Four was 2019, so either you was at that same time or after like COVID time or right after like. I'm trying to remember, because it was SneakerCon for Lauderdale. I was there and then we went to SneakerFast and no, SneakerExit on Palm Beach. And the Oklahoma Four is we're sitting on a table used and I was like, oh my God. And I just, I just, I just lit up. And so it's only been over the last couple of years, but it's definitely something that's been, I've been blessed to find some pretty good pairs. Dope. That, yeah. And this one was from Mayer's Collection. Dope, dope, dope. Yeah, this is fire. Materials on either fire. Crazy. Shout out, JC Urban Necessities. And what was dope is when I went to go pick these up, he actually FaceTime Mayor. Let him know.  It's going to a good home. So. I think that's what's dope about the Sneaker community too, is like, as you build these relationships, obviously you get blessed with different sneakers and great deals and different stuff, but you also get like, knowing, hey, it's going to a good home or if I need to get it back later, like, you know where it went and then you can track it back and get it back in your collection. It's kind of dope just like doing that. That's why I always tell people build those relationships. It's very important because you never know. Maybe eight years later, you don't want to know more and then you can, somebody else wants it back. Exactly. And I get hit up a lot too. And that's just a nice thing about the community is like a lot of people are starting to realize, okay, we know AJ likes these certain things. So then they'll proactively reach out and a lot of times they're willing to, you know, make a nice deal because of the relationships. So how long have you been into Pease? So I got the Ray Allen 12. Yeah. Like back in like, oh, eight. Yeah. And ever since then, like I was into it before, like from football. So like Warren Sapp and like all those guys, Charles Woodson, like seeing them play, Randy Moss, like seeing them playing in the stuff was what had got me into it. And then obviously seeing Ray Allen and all the other guys coming up at the same time. So I was into it. And then I was able to afford it. Like when I was in high school, like my junior year of high school, that's when I got serious about it. So that was around like, oh, eight. And then from there, it was just like been doing it forever. Ever since. That's dope. Yeah. That's dope.  Yeah.   So things have changed a lot. Quite a bit. Quite a bit. So, you want to go a little bit more on this side. I see we got some OGs and stuff.  Is it kind of like, I'm from Chicago. I have to get these essentials. Or is it like, I truly love these and I want to have these in my collection. No, definitely truly love them. I mean, growing up watching the movie, I got the dang thing from the movie theater. This is dope. Yeah. But this was one of my favorite movies as a kid. And. Oh yeah. I love how he slams everything down so far. I'm like, yo, with the gold coin or the silver coin or whatever. This one in avid. You know what I'm talking about though? I used to have that when I was a kid. Yeah, I know. Oh my gosh, I used to watch this so many times. This is literally my favorite movie ever. Favorite movie. Blessing again, being born and raised in Chicago. So definitely love the shoes. They're some of my faves. I've had some growing up. Most of these newer concords. These are slept on. Definitely. These are super slept on. Camera hacks blown by. What are your thoughts on these? I think it's dope. I like the way they put them together. And I'm glad that it's a portable sneaker. I actually, I don't know. I think the prices might have went up by now. I don't know. But either way, I think it's a solid shoe. I don't know. I understand the story behind it. So for me, I'm like, it's a great shoe for the collection. Yeah. I don't know. Tinker just puts his extra touch on there. Nike ear, being able to customize a little bit with the swoosh. Definitely. I love that.  Now, how mad were you about the shape of that shoe? A little bit. I was pissed. A little bit. I don't get too deep on that. I mean, I do like the toe box and everything to be a little bit more narrow, but I wasn't too mad about it. It's almost like an SB version. Like the way it was all puffy around the ankle and everything. Yeah. I don't know. I'm looking forward to a reimagined of these. That's all I'm saying. Like, I need them to redo these. Yeah. Please, please, please. That's all I'm saying. I have like a 90s pair somewhere in here, but again, just got back from SneakerCon, just met today. We're friends. Didn't really have everything out and about, so it's somewhere in here. Yeah, it's been a long week here. But yeah, no, it's definitely again. I only tend to buy stuff that I know I'm gonna wear that I'm gonna enjoy or has a story to it or something that's like brings nostalgia to me, so. Okay, dope. Well, let's crack in some of these PEs over here, bro. We gotta move the little poster and everything, but I think it's time to show them something. Home Alone, Home Alone Michael. Yes. So, again, Florida. I just started, I love the blue. I used to spend a ton of time in Florida. Shout out Kyle Kobert, my buddy, that kind of got me going and even intrigued with Florida. But I don't know, what are your thoughts on? Well, I remember watching one of your videos a while back. I'm like your favorite fours. Okay. I'm trying to remember which ones they were. From the college set? Yeah. I think the Gators was definitely one of my top ones for sure. I like the blue, I like the way they pop. I think the Georgetown is clean and I think that Oklahoma is definitely like that third place kind of category. Yeah. The UNC Blue also is wild. So I think, I'm trying to remember how I ranked them before. But I think these are definitely top three and these are like hovering like third or fourth place. Just based off of like Georgetown and UNC because that UNC Blue is hard to beat. It is, it is. That's the one I don't have that I still want. And I had a buddy of mine that had a really good deal on it, but still. A lot of times I prefer to try to find them used. I don't care if they're DS. You can save thousands of dollars. I just want to wear them. So when I went to sneaker exit and saw these sitting on that table, I was just ecstatic because they were, they were, and basically, I mean, I've still worn these a lot, but very clean use condition. Definitely. That makes sense. Like when especially, and even with general release, you're like, you can buy the used pair. It's okay. You're going to wear it anyways. You could save hundreds or even thousands of dollars by doing it and still have the dope shoe in your collection. Now this one, ah, good times right here. Still amazes me how long this has been around. I think this is my favorite Oregon PE. 100%. Out of all the Oregon PE. 100%. Still to this day. 100%. There's so much nostalgia for me, but I don't know, I'd love to hear your story behind why you like it. I'm a sucker for chrome. And when I first saw how the O-Hit on the heel on this one, and they had the helmets. Helmets were sick. Also too, just like Tinker's Evolve, I've always had a lot of respect for Tinker in general and just how he kind of developed a lot of things for the school. Definitely. I don't know, I just, I absolutely loved the metallic green on this. I think the black hits, the green stitching was just gorgeous to me. You have a reason, because you live out there. Oh man, I had so many pairs of these back in my day. I just absolutely just loved how the shoe looked. Yeah, no, it's a beautiful shoe. I think it's dope, but white laces is dope, but black laces, everybody typically does white laces, but he thought a black laces in there looks clean too. But yeah, this is definitely a really nice shoe. What do you guys think about these three? Let me know down below in the comments section. Which one do you guys like the most? Honestly, they're all pretty fire. Yeah. Great addition to the collection. What do you think about Jordan 4 Hype right now? It's the hottest shoe, it's the hottest thing. It's, everything kind of just kind of has its time. You know, ones went crazy. The fact that there's so many dope colorways that are going below retail right now to me is still like, okay, like it is what it is. It's the game. So everybody's got to find something new to love and I mean, I'm glad that it's one of the original like OG models. But again, it's not something I really pay attention to. And you might look in here and go like, okay, there's like a lot of hype stuff. I really don't care. I just, I like what I like. I don't really pay attention to what's hyper new. I even, I'll go out and I'll buy a shoe that's just not, I mean, what do I got here? Give me an example. I absolutely love these. Hey, they did nice on those too. That's crazy. And I mean, this is a shoe that you'll see sitting in the South Side Chicago outlet. And I just, if it speaks to me, if I like it, I get it. I like that. I like that. So Oregon sevens, Oregon threes. Eminem twos. The Eminem twos. I got a good story on these. Oh yeah. I had one of these for the longest. Thank you. Thank you. Can I have your store? I had one of these for the longest. And another one of those shoes was like, do I want to spend five, six, seven, whatever they were going for at the time? I didn't care about having the shirt. And I was at Urban Necessities a while back and I was there for work and I walked in, I saw these and I thought it was just going to be an asinine price. And I scammed QR code. It was the best price I've ever seen on these. And they're 11 and a half. Really? So I buy them and the next day I wear them and JC's standing at the front door. He goes, oh, you bought the Eminems.   I go, I didn't know that. Is he getting all their Fat Joe's like, no, I just thought they were dope. I wanted them. So then I go back to the hotel. I don't have it in here. I think it's in the box or something, but it had the little card that, you know, from Fat Joe's collection. And then it turns out that he wore these NBA All Star game and there's all these photos on them now. Man, that just made me think about it. We need to make our own little card for our collection. So when we get rid of stuff, people can have that for them as well. You know, we're important too. I'm going to keep it humbled, CJ, but. No, but like, I think it's dope though, like when people get to do that and have that story of like, oh, I got this Rousseau's collection and stuff. Like it does hit a little bit. I literally had no clue. Right. So what happens when I went back to the hotel, that card was upside down in the bottom of the box. So it just looked like the bottom of the box. And then when I went back, that's when he called Mayor about those, those blueprint and he was like, oh, tell my boy about them. Right. Like, oh, they're dope. And so, yeah. Yeah, I think it is as cool how they kind of tie it to that and create another story within the shoes and how people get them and then they go to other people's collections and stuff. So I like it. It was a nice surprise. It was too inspired though, for sure. That was definitely good. I bought these at Detroit sneaker con. And, you know, of course, people really appreciated them. Oregon Fives. Oregon Fives. We're getting to the point. Again, I'm organizing. So some of my stuff's a little hard to get to right now. Success. There we go. I got these for an absolute steal on Goat a couple years ago and I want to say, I can't remember the price, but I had never seen a pair that low. Do you do like low ball offers or was it just like, it happened to be low and you're like, I'm buying right now? It was just extremely low. I had to clean it up a little bit. So I got my Angeles, I got my suede eraser, I got my brush and they came out beautiful. Yeah, no, they look great. So again, between these two, just kind of being like the OG. Like school PEs. Once I started getting into PEs, I thought this would be, this was definitely one of the ones I had to add. Makes sense. I like that. Yeah, brings back a lot of memories for me. So let's you pull it out down there. Uh-oh. Georgetown three. I like that. We got to make some room for you. I know we're just, we're going a little over, piling everything right now. Georgetown three. Absolutely love the colorway. Again, sucker for blue, gray. Shout out to my boy, heat for your feet. He had them. We've been talking a while. We worked out a trade with another Oregon P I had. And I mean, 50 pairs. And I think because, I don't know. I feel like, and I don't care as far as the value because I'm not, you know, I don't sell them. I want to wear them. But I feel like it should be going for more of the fact that there's only 50 pairs. That's what I was saying. Just like the off-white too, right? It's like, you feel like it doesn't matter about the value, but at the same time the way stuff is priced, you would think that this would be worth more than that or whatever. Like sometimes it's just not like that. I mean, again, just beautiful shoe stitching on the tongue. I just love how they did the Matt Navy on the midsole. That was a very clean touch. Kind of really goes with the upper. And then you got that beautiful stitching right there on the tongue. But the Jeter ones, that's nice. Signed. Shout out to Laboratory, Oklahoma City. I was down there for my buddy's wedding and these were sitting in a case just like this. And I knew what they were going for. And I just, I don't know. I still asked them like, what are you asking for? I'm into the pricey gamey. I was just like, there's just a no-brainer. So I'm a big baseball fan. I have a whole another room that's memorabilia. Dope. So, you know, I've collected like all the greats and I consider Jeter one of the greats. Just the fact that I love the shoe, love the execution on the shoe and the fact he signed them. We got some more autographed stuff right here. Some great stuff over there, some autographed stuff over there. We're running around close to the end of it right here. What is the autographed ball right there, is that? Kobe. That's what I thought it was? Yeah. Got a Kobe signature ball right here. Kobe ball. Lakers versus Sixers. Yeah, this was like a special edition they had put out for the 2001 NBA Finals. It's got full letter of authenticity, PSA, DNA. Again, I like to collect the greats. There's not too many people I consider great and Kobe's definitely the closest thing we've ever seen to Jordan. Since we're on the topic of signatures and the closest to Jordan, here's a 19. Is there enough light there? Yeah. 1985 pair signed by Michael Jordan. Early signature, 86-87 signature. Again, another one that's full PSA, DNA certified. And that's one of the things you gotta be really careful with signatures because it's amazing to me how many people still don't know what a real or fake signature is. And there was even a gentleman at SneakerCon this weekend that had assigned Michael Jordan jersey and unfortunately I didn't have the heart to tell him that wasn't good. But if it doesn't have PSA, DNA, PSA, Beckett, upper deck, don't mess with it, please. All right. So is that, is this like your most prized possession, like your Grail Sneaker, whatever you call it? Like, is this the one? I always wanted an 85 signed by Jordan. I just, I didn't think I would find a gentleman close to Chicago that'd be willing to give me a phenomenal price. Right. Like phenomenal price. So it was just an older gentleman that's had him for a while and luckily we were able to work something out. So it's up there. It's for me probably. It's up there. It's either this or it's this one right here. That pair is clean. Yeah, just because while the signature with Mike on there would be an early 86, 87 signature is really cool. It's a dead stock pair, size 11 and a half, 85. This was my first pair of 85s. Really? Okay. And this, again, initially bought them to wear and then shortly after I found the pair from round two was already worn. So I just started wearing those and I just, I was tempted to wear them at SneakerCon. Really?  Really? What were, I wanna, give me your honest opinion. Okay. What would you think if like somebody was to wear these knowing that they were like undiesced? I think me in those situations, I'm never undiesced in that shoe. Yeah. Like I'm gonna let it just sit and let it do its thing and marinate in its greatness and just go find another pair. Like it's the same thing. Like I got the Air Mag and I was so happy but I'm like, I could find another 13. Yeah. And I could find a warm pair or something. And then I'll go find a warm pair and just double up and I'll wear that one. But I'm like, there's certain ones where it's like, no, I really just have multiple. But if you're never gonna sell it? I'm still undiesced like that. It's tough, right? I'm just still undiesced. Like, cause initially I bought, Yeah, I'm not worried about the sell. Like here's the thing, here's the thing. I bought it before things got crazy. So I bought it in the mindset of I'm gonna wear it cause I got it really cheap. But I don't know. So like, okay, cause I was collecting OGs for a while too. And I had the thing like, if it was dead stock, oh yeah, I'm never wearing it. But if it's worn, oh yeah, I'm rocking it. Like if it's worn one time, oh, I'm rocking it. But yeah, any, cause that's, it's a shoe that I don't have in my collection, which I don't know why, but I just always been like putting it on the back burner. Oh, it's always gonna be there. And then the price just keeps going up. I know. And I think that's a point I'm trying to make, right? Is it's like, and once the last dance hit, then everybody in my opinion was like, okay, DS not touching it, never gonna let it do. But like before last dance, I'm like, I wonder if more people would be like, Hey, I just go wear it because it's not, things are crazy. So I don't know. I bought it with the mindset to wear it. And I just, I still haven't had the heart to wear it. But I think it's one of those like, if you did wear it and it wasn't a last dance, you still would have been like, I'm gonna wear this to a very special occasion.  I'm not gonna be irresponsible. Yeah. I'm not gonna be irresponsible. I think it's still gonna hold that weight where it's like, I'm gonna do something dope in this shoe. Like I'm gonna go somewhere dope or a big meaning behind it to why I'm busting these out. Whether the last dance came out or not. So I think for us on, you know, as our sneaker headstand point, like, I think that's where we were still both lying that. Yeah. It's just interesting how time like, kind of changes perception of different things. Definitely. Do you wanna see 85s? I absolutely love the patina on those. That was definitely one. As soon as I saw it, again, I don't mind if something's beat. Thought the laces were absolutely beautiful on those. I wear those quite a bit.  The other ones had the faded red laces, but I think I love the black laces too. So that's the one I wear, probably the second or third most. And those are clean. Yeah. So you still do, you're responsible on those? I'm very responsible on them. Yeah. Definitely don't do a lot of, a lot of concrete on those. It's like the newer ones though, I'm irresponsible. Okay. So you also have customs over here. Yeah. Talk about this. It's just randomly mixed. Like I got a couple more trophy rooms I just have on ice cause I love the shoe. I love the story behind the shoe. So customs. I was always extremely intrigued with shoe surgeon and just how he was able to create in the quality, like with the leather lining. I always thought the quality of the shoes. I actually had booked right at the beginning of COVID to go do his class to learn how to build a pair of these. Unfortunately got canceled. So like I still haven't had an opportunity to do that, but I do have a couple of pairs of his. This was my first pair probably like four years ago.  With the Python. And again, I'm not irresponsible too with like certain picks up pickups. If I see something, this was an eBay pickup for this one. Really good price. I thought the Python was awesome. Great quality. I have another pair of shoe surgeon. Oh yeah, I see it. It's tucked in there and I don't worry about that one, but I love, I just love his creativity. I have some boys too that are close to him. So it was just like one of those things that I was paying attention to him because I had so much respect for him. Right. So like let me get a few pairs. Okay, dope. Yeah. So you got all the reimagines. Yeah. The ones and the threes. Yeah. And now, so you didn't have the knowledge of 1985 to stack up on all the shoes and all the things or the right, but now we're in current time. Yeah.  How's that gonna go? Definitely sitting on them. I hit every raffle in Chicago just about that I, I entered every raffle thinking, okay, maybe I'll hit two or three. And then once you start getting the emails that you won, so I told wifey, we're just gonna go around and get them all, like what the heck, I don't know what I'm gonna do with them. Right. But as you can see, having sold them, I don't know. I just felt, I didn't feel right not picking them up. Okay. So, and I do have a few friends, like I had a couple buddies, a sneaker con that said, hey, I haven't gone up here yet. I don't know what size are you. And I think I have two of them there. I'm just gonna give them to them at retail. Yeah. So if I do have people that still need up here, like I'll take care of them. That's dope, that's dope. So it was behind those on this side. Let's see. I saw we got some off-white UNC ones, just at the top area. As you can see guys, super prepared today. Yeah, we didn't see too many Travis Scott's collection yet. How do you feel about the whole Travis Scott series and everything? I think it's sick. I think the, so here, this, do you remember how this drop went on sneakers? Which time? The sneakers drop. Yeah. Okay, yeah. So this was the one where the building wasn't working. And it was at night. It was during the day. Well, what time was it for y'all? I don't remember. Cause I remember driving down the highway and the sneakers drop was happening for the Travis Scott's. I'd have to look at my phone and see. I don't even know if it still has it. Either way, it was where the building error kept tapping and kept happening and a lot of people were giving up and I kept hitting submit, submit, submit for like 20 minutes. And then all of a sudden the wheel started turning and I just like put my hands up and The fours were like that. Got them. So, I'm a big fan of a lot of the earth tones too within the Travis Scott. I love Travis Scott's music. I'm a big fan of the music. I've gone to his shows. It's just, I love the difference with the backwards swoosh. I love the Reds. I don't know. I think they're dope shoe. So the models, right? You got the fours, the sixes, the ones, the Air Force ones, all the different stuff. Yeah. Like are there other ones that you want to add to the collection? Or like you got what you like from the collection? No, I'm good. I'm good. I wouldn't mind the Phantoms just because I love black.  And I love to, it's not a shoe I'm gonna pay resell for. Right. I got you. It's interesting to see in the pricing kind of going down on stuff. And that's honestly through the whole market. But it's kind of cool to see people to get like black Phantoms at a lot more affordable price around, you know, if you get a solid deal of 450, 500 bucks. Yeah. I sure people is in the comment section like, where can you get that? There's definitely a lot of places where you can, but yeah, I think it's cool that there's more obtainable Travis Scott's for different prices, whether it's the trainers or the Air Maxes or whatever. Compared to everything being $1,000.  Yeah. You know what I mean? But I don't know. I mean, again, I don't know if I'm gonna pay, I don't pay attention in the market. Honestly, I really don't. I don't know. Like what are these going for right now? Um, I was about to say those are good. These are more expensive than the highest. You want to buy these? I don't want them. I got some. He's like speaking to that. No, I even had, I don't know. Like there's certain things I kind of know about with the market, but like certain things I just, I just don't know. I don't even know what they're doing anymore. Yeah. And it's changing so much. It's hard to keep track of everything. Especially like saying, you're buying what you like, you get stuff for your collection. It makes sense. Like, I get it. So we're kind of coming to an end. We ran through a bunch of different stuff. You got any final words for the people? Let's look at one more. Oh, we didn't even go through this one yet. We put everything on the top of this, but we didn't even share it. I know. I know. 2006, FireRedFive signed an 07 by Jordan at one of his golf tournaments. Again, just love it. I love the yellowing of the netting. I just think the, the, one of my favorite FireRedFives. Definitely. Yeah, definitely. I like these way more than the silver tones. Yeah. The blocking on the midsole and everything, like. I agree. I think these are better, but. I agree. So, I know we spent a lot of time talking about a lot of shoes. I have other shoes hidden around here too, but I think we hit most of like what I really love and hopefully you enjoyed the conversation. Yeah, for sure. I loved it. I love hearing people's stories about their sneakers, how they got them, all the different things.  Everything is just dope to hear everybody's stories and experience with collecting shoes. Well, it was honored to have you at the crib. Appreciate it, bro. You're welcome anytime. Definitely, definitely. Next time we come out, we got to plan something. For sure. And pizza. Yeah. Oh yeah, we got to get some pizza. All right y'all, don't forget to subscribe. I'll see y'all in another one. We out. I will never let you down. Yo, before you go, I just launched my sneaker head Academy where we got everything on the inside. I teach you all the stuff that I learned over the past 15 years. When it comes to sneakers, scaling, real estate, you name it, we talk about all of it in there.  I give away shoes literally way too much honestly. But either way, I'll see you guys on the inside. Hit the link down below in my description or pinned in the comment section for DJ sneaker head Academy. And I'll see you guys over there. Okay, you guys. So we forgot a little bit and I'm sure you guys are all wondering about this. So go ahead and tell them real quick. So no, I did not make this giant LED, the 85 shop sign. So when the 85 shop with eBay came to Chicago, the wonderful people at eBay invited me to come. And after doing the whole activation, there was really nowhere for this stuff to go. So they basically said, you can have whatever you want. So I just showed up the next morning with a U-Haul. So that was the sign that was sitting in the window of the 85 shop. All these display cases were displaying different items from museums collection and others collection. And so, and then like the sample, Jordan one, like when you first came into the gallery, those were in there. And the QR code still works and goes to that particular shoe. Got some great display items. So that is from this too or? Yes, yes. So these. Welcome to Chicago. So yeah, these were, these were also in that. And this was the one. So in the middle of the 85 shop was the giant display. When you first walked in, you had the one, which is where all the 85s were. And then the other side were all the variations of the Chicago, which is what that sign was from. So yes, I didn't just make all this. I'm not a crazy man. Well, we got it. We're good. All right, here we go.


You're right guys. So in this video, I'm going to be showing you how to How how stop hunts can turn into or don't do turn into Capture pain relief zone. So if you miss a stop hunt, yeah, don't worry about it It's not, you know, the end of the world you can take advantage if price pulls back, right? So let's go through this and So we want to be a buyer of the you know, the dollar obviously Swiss Frank was strengthening, you know, maybe like a risk on environment It was more likely to be risk on environment, right? So What we had was a nice Level, yeah, where traders would have been getting long on those types of pin balls right there And then they get obviously stopped out. Yeah, right there. So A bit of a stop hunt and this was quite a complex one I said quite a complex one but a bit of a complex one not our usual type of entry one that we would Really kind of enter one. But as you guys know, we did enter based off of the the weekly, you know Price came down into this weekly zone Weekly demand zone and then we were looking at obviously, you know buy trades on the lower time frames. So We actually took advantage of the stop hunt but not in the usual way that we That we would The usual entries. So anyways, these guys now, sorry, these guys now have definitely been stop-hunted, right now What we saw is is we saw more traders getting Evolved in this move to the downside now you can see where obviously support becomes potential resistance So prices have pulled back to that level there and then, you know pulled back again Yeah, and then managed to Got a bit lower So in the lower time frame that would have been like pullback pullback and it's confirmed that that level is a level of Resistance and then prices have gone to the downside Maybe go down to out the 30 minute or something like that. You can see yeah Maybe you've down into something like maybe the 10-minute chart or something. Yeah, so you can start to see where resistance resistance traders are in. Yeah, so You can start to really see why traders would be getting short here. Yeah, I remember this is also Draw, this is stop hunt, but also drawing traders into the short side now If traders are placing stop losses Yeah This is this is goes into capture paying relief now Then they're committing their capital here, right? So at the same time as a stop hunt is occurring. Yeah, and prices are going lower and drawing traders into the downside Yeah Stop hunting Traders are also getting short now Sorry one sec, so Prices pulled back pull back a little bit. Yeah Yeah To a level and then trade is definitely getting in short now So if traders didn't get short in here They're definitely getting short in here this price action that bearish candle there It's definitely gonna get a lot of traders and think about it. It's like the It's like the eight o'clock candle as far as London time. So that's prime time That's you know peak time trading everyone's at their desks looking at that boom looks like it's going lower They're placing their entries there and for traders that do you stops? They're placing them up here And then the ill-disciplined traders and there's some of his looks trades that don't use stop losses Right use mental stops or whatever they they do. Yeah But remember we're taking advantage of the fact that they don't like to lose now Like there's an argument that says well, you know, how many traders would get stopped out or move their stop losses? Yeah, or don't you stop losses? We know that trade is not you stop losses and also traders that do place top losses move them and for several reasons could be The fact that maybe they've lost a couple of trades getting long here and then all of a sudden now Markets move to the short side. So now they're trying to revenge trade because they ended up losing here They've lost maybe two three trades previous they vote their over leverage They've put too much on there normally there is 2% now They want to risk 4% or 5% to make back up their losses Various reasons that traders, you know, we'll we'll get in, you know to the short side and also move their stop losses Yeah, there's there's so many different reasons traders are not disciplined. Yeah, the average trade is not disciplined I can tell you that now I wasn't it's because I wasn't doesn't mean everyone else was but you know I've spoken to a mental enough traders to know that these mistakes happen And then what I was shown as well by my mentor as well mark who showed me this This way of thinking anyway, but yeah getting back to the strategy so What you want to look for as well is you want to see where traders if traders have actually made their Profit targets so traders you've got in here. Yeah, maybe this breakout here Traders will tend to do what maybe go for maybe there's some sort of one-to-one type trade before they get out Yeah, some most trips a most but a lot of traders will gain, you know, we'll try to go for further But one-to-one is pretty much the minimum so stop above probably just stop out above the high Maybe a few pips above the high and then you've also got traders getting in as well here Yeah, there was lost top maybe around the same level maybe around there as well Right, so in order for these guys to be captured Yeah, in their position You don't want them to be let off the hook. Yeah, you don't want them to ever reach their profit target Which price? Does not price doesn't reach their profit target. Yeah, so at the same time as this is really like a More of a complex stop hunt below the level if we zoom back out you can start to see obviously Where this is happening this is probably more of what we would know is a iceberg order where you know It's being filled. Yeah, I spoke orders are being filled below the market. They're buying at a better price And stop hunting it's also being used as Potential capture pain relief zero-sum game, you know traders more traders getting involved here placing their stop losses Above the market based off price action potential price action then all of a sudden we get Movement because their stop losses are obvious in places you get the stop hunt to the upside But again traders who move their stop losses and don't want to accept the loss. What are they doing? Now instead of instead of risking, you know, two three four five percent They find themselves down six seven eight nine ten percent and as prices keep going against them. Yeah, where we are Right here They are Underwater, you know massively and the more this goes to the upside Yeah, the more this price goes to the upside The more pain there in yeah, so this is the capture phase where they commit capital C P you know, it's the pain phase now if prices ever come back down here Yeah, this is gonna be the relief phase Yeah, because what's the next best trade other than a losing trade or a winning trade really is? Break-even. Yeah, or a small loss at least. Yeah, so if traders weren't sure any time here or around here and Suffered from loss a version where they didn't want to take the loss or accept the loss And they're going for a bit of pain at the moment. Yeah looking at their unrealized negative Bank account trading account. What do you think they're gonna do? They're gonna exit Yeah here and if they weren't sure they have to go long to exit as far as they have to do the opposite transaction So if you sold here, you have to buy to exit so That's gonna add to the supply and demand equation around here as traders Exit and is buying orders is demand, isn't it? Yeah is demand So they should be demand here. So if you miss this overall stockpunt right here then What you can do is if prices can never get back here at some point not saying they're gonna reverse now Yeah, the more pain the better by the way, the more pain the better you want to see that But if prices ever come back to this area here this zone where you've got support Resistance Resistance should become more support there. So don't worry about missing the stockpunt in real time You know we got in down here nice trade take profit is my first take profit. Anyway, I know I know into the one position We didn't get filled and I didn't get filled in the second position, but first position is is gonna be Filled just below this zero point nine seven if it can get up here. There's no reason why it shouldn't overall the Swiss Frank is Very I guess I don't like using the term of a value, but it's very expensive It's highly valued as described by the central bank governor think his name's Thomas Jordan. So Yeah, so this nice buying opportunity, right and you can even see it on the weekly as well look at that weekly Stop on yeah, you can see nice clear level there Yeah, there's a little bit of one here, which I did enter on a couple weeks ago Got out for one position second position got stopped out, which is fine come still up and then you can see like a deeper Stop hunt there and now potentially we could be off to you know the races to the upside So, yeah, so that's how you know We can you know take advantage of you know stop months in real time But also stop hunts turning into you know capture pain relief sounds as well Yeah, so if this does come back it might not come back anytime soon I might keep going and so on and so forth an example of this as well I don't know if you guys remember this, but Maybe about last week at some point I was saying about the Aussie Aussie New Zealand not a pair that I'm looking to trade because they're both commodity currencies But let's just show you remember we did this analysis All right higher lower highs lower lows this now look like a stop hunt where you've got a level there Stop hunt prices go up. So this now is the what? capture phase pain P Capture pain and then this is the what relief. Yeah, the relief Got support should turn to what resistance anyone who got short down here Yeah, and if you go into the zone a bit more you can start to see where traders would have been getting short Retracement traders getting short here. They're exiting where? There so they've they assumed Yeah, when this was happening in real time, it's a nice engulfing candle that prices are gonna do what? So the downside, right? But what ends up happening? the opposite so capture pain and then Relief yes, if they went short here They have to buy to exit other traders all doing what buying here as well at levels of support and resistance entering new trades Traders who got short here doing what at this area? buying As well so there's plenty of demand at this area Technically again fundamentally. This isn't a great pair. This is not a great pair to trade So but just to show you, you know, what what happens if you know I mean on an hourly chart There was probably enough to you know to the upside to get involved in that trade if you really wanted to buy the Australian dollar against the New Zealand dollar You know today earlier today, so But that's just an example and then you know going back to the Swiss Frank Dollar Swiss pretty much the same type of setup if we can get that type of movement So guys, yeah, that's Pretty much it don't ever worry if you missed the the the stockpunt in real time because they can turn into what it do turn into CPR zones right and Yeah, just to also remember as well that you know, don't worry about getting as far as you know short in the pound I did a video earlier today Which is gonna be? Think where is it now? Let's go into Did a video earlier today which is? Discussion room it's found right Here Yeah, so interest rate cuts You know pound cuts trade idea round up technical entries and targets plus more. There you go Yeah, so So so yeah, it's all there remember as well to go through the fundamentals as well You know all the fundamental videos are there The news, you know the reason why we're getting short the pound as well is We've been trying to get short a pound for ages I've been saying this and you guys will know so look back on all of the data The reason why we're getting short the pound, you know for various reasons was Where is it now? Where's the Where's the article? Oh, it was Bank of England inflation, right? It's three year low. This was a couple days ago. I think this was on Wednesday.  Yeah But also today the consumer spending and again, that's all in, you know, the Discussion room video so that video right there. Yeah So, yeah, brilliant Guys, I'm gonna be off for the weekend now I'll probably maybe be in and out of the room at some point, but probably I'm gonna just relax and chill for a little bit got lots to do so Guys have a great weekend. I won't be in the room on the weekend But I will be posting the weekly Analysis, so the weekly zones daily zones Chart analysis, you know with how I normally do remember the ones the one in here in this group is You know the full strategy, so you'll find that in the supply and demand channel Right here. So don't worry about it I'll post it in here the one on YouTube isn't necessarily for This is just for the masses. It's not you won't get that sort of like the full strategy or anything like that.
