    Now give them two real ones and tell them one is fake
  • @dumbdoms
    If I ever get famous and people examine my signature, they'll be out of luck because my signature changes everytime I write it.
  • They caught them with the document already, they just wrecked them at this point
  • @severito33
    Next step is getting a ouija board and ask Jackson "did you paint this"

    forgers furiously taking notes

    >examines a Jackson pollock with a magnifying glass “Someone spilled something on this”
  • @dirkdiggler.
    At begining of video: Wow that looks like a genuine pollock. At end of video: what idiot would think this is real.

    “We’re gonna call them, Sydney” Why you gotta call me out like that man?

  • @lastfirst2241
    This would be an excellent reality show. Walking the audience through different artists, their different signature styles. Interviews with the owners and how they came into ownership of the paintings. The investigations, and the owners' responses to finding out if their painting is a fraud or not. Make this show. With these guys.

    "We received this painting by a client that chose to remain anonymous. We are going to call him Sidney " proceeds to smirk bruh
  • @williamvouk2911
    “He really doesn’t brush much anymore.” Well yeah...he’s dead
  • @kginmyheart
    Now I want to see them examine an authentic one
  • @cweaver4080
    "Was this painted by Jackson Pollock or a drunken hamster?" "A drunken hamster." "How can you tell?" "It wasn't signed."
  • @HurBenny
    How could you go through the whole process of producing a fake and mimicking a chain of titles, but not verify the date of death of the painter on your document ? A genuine older owner could have mixed the years remembering so far back, but a forger ? You wouldn’t take any chances...
  • @BVBMCRLOVER
    Imagine dropping a can of paint and people psychoanalyze it for the next 200 years
  • @cynthiaaaa5204
    examining a drip painting "Looks like they spilled something on this..." Boy have I got some news for you..
  • @joeboyd1964
    "They spilled something on this..." You don't say.
  • @QiWeiDong
    I thought they'd have some hard time finding out that it's fake but basically they started roasting the fake starting at the first second...
