00:00A 40-year-old woman in Ireland is suing Ikea.
00:10She was struck on the head by something that fell off a top shelf
00:15and was so dazed it took her three hours to find her way out of the store.
00:21Oh my god.
00:22I wasn't even hitting that.
00:25That's crazy.
00:27Like, oh man, I think heaven's like an Ikea.
00:30This 40-year-old Dublin woman told a judge she got lost for three hours
00:35in Ikea's warehouse in Dublin after being struck on the head by a falling flat pack.
00:42Hannon Tabai of Dublin had said it took her nearly three hours
00:47to find the exit after her injury.
00:50That's the worst.
00:51I could see how it could happen.
00:54I've never been in one of those stores.
00:56I've never been in one of those stores.
00:57I panicked when I went in.
00:58I thought I would not get out.
00:59It's not a head injury to be stuck there for three hours.
01:01No.
01:01It's scary.
01:02It's a different kind of place, right?
01:03They trap you.
01:04Yes.
01:04They trap you.
01:05Because you are, what you don't realize is that you're on like a carousel
01:10that you can't really stop, where it goes from one room that they've decorated
01:14to another room they've decorated to another room they've decorated to another room they've,
01:19and it keeps going on and on, and you follow the herd of people.
01:22There are people behind pushing you forward.
01:24It's horrible.
01:25And you're pushing the people in front of you forward, and maybe someone stops along the way
01:30to look at a faucet, and you're like, move up!
01:32There are, I soon discovered, secret ways to skip you.
01:36There's like, but they don't really make them well known.
01:39Yeah, but if I have to figure it out, it's a maze.
01:41You know, in the haunted house, there's like different rooms.
01:43It's scary.
01:44You guys should have me take Andy out there, or blindfold him, or take him into a portion
01:49of the store, and then when he removes the blindfold, he's got to find his way out.
01:53Find his way out.
01:54Andy now lives in Ikea.
01:55They would never agree to that, because they know that he'd never escape.
01:59You don't have to tell Ikea we're doing it.
02:00Yeah, that's true.
02:01Under cover, bitches.
02:02Yeah, that's true.
02:03But then if I get lost in Ikea, will you guys even come and help me?
02:06I'll come get you, Andy.
02:07Of course.
02:08I'll buy you some Swedish meatballs on the way out.
02:09Yeah, just know there's meatballs, and you'd have to try to, you can't rely on your sense
02:16of sight.
02:17Don't rely on your sense of sight.
02:20Your sense of sight.
02:21Follow the balls.
02:22Meatballs are due east.
02:24Exactly.
02:25Exactly.
02:25You can't rely on your eyesight.
02:27Don't let the cinnamon rolls distract your senses either.
02:30Go straight for the meatballs.
02:31Yep.
02:32Yep.
02:32You'll smell them.
02:33That's for sure.
02:34You will.
02:34You will.
02:34It is always crazy to me you guys talk about it, and there's like this, like, they got
02:38food there.
02:39Well, they need to feed you, because it's so, it's their giant.
02:42I just thought it was like a store, where you could get.
02:44Oh, it's a giant store, so you have to, like, have your nutrition intake before you take
02:49on the task of hiking through the Ikea.
02:52But, like, this is how it works.
02:53So, you go into a room that they've decorated, and there's no product.
02:56You don't just pick up a product that's right there.
02:58Write it down.
02:59You write it down.
03:00You're like, oh, the faucet number is 76521.
03:03And then you have to go into this big warehouse where this poor Irish lady was, and then-
03:08Search for it.
03:09You search for it.
03:10It's horrible.
03:10It's horrible.
03:10You search for it.
03:12You search for your own stuff.
03:12And pull it off.
03:13Yes.
03:13You go to a warehouse to find your items, and you have to get it.
03:17And you get your big cart, and you load it onto the flatbed cart.
03:20And then you have to put it together when you get home.
03:22That's why it's so cheap.
03:23And the instructions make no sense.
03:25It's only drawings.
03:26People love it.
03:27Why did they make it like an Egyptian code?
03:29It's crazy, dude.
03:30It's so crazy.
03:32So, I want to see Andy go to Ikea now.
03:34No.
03:34Oh, my God.
03:34The way you guys are explaining is giving me such anxiety.
03:36I had anxiety when I went there.
03:39I was like, get me out of the store.
03:40I just want a coffee table.
03:42But now I didn't even think of me walking down one of the aisleways, and then someone
03:48on the aisleway on the other side trying to get something off the very top.
03:52Oh, my God.
03:53And knocking something off, which then falls and crushes my skull.
03:58And I wander around dazed, and no one can tell anything's wrong, because everyone's
04:03walking around dazed.
04:04Right, yes.
04:05I look like everyone else, except for the blood.
04:09This is a special little slice of hell that's like, you know.
04:12Oh, man.
04:13I've been there twice.
04:14And the meatballs, it's only, like, I'd guess to try and make you feel better about what a
04:18terrible experience you're having.
04:20And that's what they offer is meatballs.
04:22Sweetish meatballs.
04:22Meatballs on the way in and cinnamon rolls on the way out.
04:24No, Elise, I'm going to be honest with you here.
04:25I didn't even eat when I was, I didn't find the food.
04:28There are tons of people.
04:31This is their favorite store.
04:33I know.
04:33That's why it does so well.
04:35Hey, listen, when Amber and I first got married, you know, like, it's a cheap way to decorate
04:39your place.
04:39So we went there a bunch.
04:41Right.
04:41You realize it doesn't last long, but you get some decent looking stuff at a cheap price,
04:46right?
04:46So that's why you do it.
04:47You have to assemble it yourself, and it's a pain in the ass, but you can do it that way.
04:51But once you pass a certain point in your life, you realize, oh, well, that $30 table
04:55doesn't look too good.
04:56It's so bad.
04:56The way you guys describe it, I just keep picturing, like, Indiana Jones when he's going to throw
04:59the dust on the steps.
05:01It's an adventure.
05:03It is an adventure.
05:04Blow dust off a wall.
05:05You're like, 76, 501.
05:07Yeah.
05:09Yeah.
05:10That's what?
05:10You're going to play an organ like in Goose.
05:11Yes.
05:12My God.
05:14Oh, no.
05:14We got to get a table.
05:16Yeah.
05:16It's number 75267815725178763152.
05:25Okay.
05:26You see that number anywhere?
05:27I don't know.
05:28There's some hieroglyphics here.
05:30It says here, I'll...
05:32I smell...
05:357H.
05:36I smell meatballs.
05:37I can't concentrate.
05:39Watch out for the bugs!
05:40Oh, boy!
05:41Watch out!
05:42It's like a saw blade, and I'm like, oh, luckily, I knew that.
05:45Things are shooting out.
05:46I'm looking at, like, some kind of Ikea book that has passed down generation to generation.
05:52Yeah.
05:53Follow the book.
05:53Like, oh, my God.
05:54It says if we go through three more rooms, we can get to the warehouse where then we can
05:57have some meatballs and maybe find the chair.
05:59A man in a knight's outfit is standing there.
06:04He's like, oh, yeah, finally, you've arrived.
06:07It's Indiana Jones and the Temple of Meatballs.
06:09Right.
06:10Indiana Jones and Ikea.
06:12Yeah.
06:13I remember Amber and I going once, and we really wanted a couple of things, so we do.
06:16You get the piece of paper and the little pencil, and you write down your numbers, and
06:20then we had to forge all the way through the other lands, the Ikea lands, to get out.
06:24Oh, my God.
06:25Yeah.
06:25But then finally we get to the golden warehouse, and we're like, oh, yes, and you go, you find
06:31your aisle takes you to go to look it up on the computer where this would be, and then
06:34you find it.
06:34Yeah, I know what's coming.
06:35You get there.
06:36Out of stock.
06:37Yeah.
06:37Oh, my God.
06:38I'm like, no!
06:40What did you do?
06:41I was wasted two hours of my life.
06:43You didn't get anything?
06:44No.
06:44You couldn't go back through there.
06:46No, because, Lise, there's basically, there's one, there's 20 different faucets you can
06:53get, but one of them looks awesome.
06:56Yes.
06:56That's the one everyone gets.
06:58Oh, my God.
06:58Like, everyone gets that one, so it's never there.
07:02And there's no warning that it's out of stock when you're shopping.
07:05No, no.
07:05You can't.
07:06There can't be.
07:07Upstairs, it's just displays, right?
07:08It's just displays.
07:10Did they update their system?
07:11I mean, can you go on a computer?
07:13Maybe this was when it first got here.
07:16I would hope so, because that's a flawed system.
07:18But I was definitely Ikea Jones and the Temple of Meatballs, and I hated it.
07:22I couldn't find it.
07:23It was out of stock.
07:23I was so pissed.
07:24Ikea Jones and the Temple of Meatballs is a great sounding movie.
