Prankster Jake Mitchell constructs an elaborate fort using 10,000 toilet rolls…but it all ends in disaster
YouTuber Jake is back to his old tricks, this time creating his own castle from toilet paper
LIFE is pretty good for 17-year-old Jake Mitchell.
The teen vlogger effectively spends his time planning and executing fun stunts, that everyone has thought about but no one actually gets to do.
Last week we brought you news of Jake’s super-sized mega burger which he built from 50 McDonald’s Big Macs and now he’s at it again.
This time Youtuber Jake has teamed up with his mates to build a giant fort made entirely of toilet roll.
In the video uploaded to , he said: “We are doing something crazy with toilet roll.
“So the other day I spent loads of money on toilet roll, I don’t know how much I spent but I’m poor now.”
In order to achieve his ambition of a loo roll castle, the vlogger started by ordering 10,000 toilet rolls to use as the vital bricks for his construction.
The band of brothers then drew up some plans for the building project and strategically sketched out two towers that would frame the entrance-way and two separate rooms inside the fort.
Despite initial success with the project, there was quickly concern about the strength on the walls either side of the entrance.
Jake said: “The only issue we’ve got is that the front wall is starting to shake”
Eventually the inevitable happened and the unstable wall toppled over, despite the vlogger’s best efforts to prop it up.
He said: “So what we are going to do is we are going to start this whole wall again. We are going to knock it down and start again.”
After numerous rebuild attempts the group called it a night at 1am, resigning themselves to the fact that they weren’t going to be able to build the fort any taller than torso height.
Accepting defeat they decided to collapse the tower in the most efficient and enjoyable way possible, by bulldozing the building with their bodies.
It’s not the first time Jake has pulled a ridiculous stunt in the name of YouTube videos, the vlogger recently bought £434 worth of food from McDonald's to see if their Monopoly game was fixed.
