What's up, buddy? -Hey, what's up, man?
I'm here to get this packaged and shipped to an address
I have on here in my phone.
-Okay, great. -Kansas City, Missouri.
A little French wine to Kansas City.
-Yep. -Uh, we need a box, right?
-Yep. -Uh, this'll work.
I'll get it all wrapped up safely.
So, how's your day going?
Pretty good, man.
-Nice, man. -Yeah, how's your day going?
Going pretty good.
-Nice. -Kind of wet outside, huh?
Definitely, definitely.
All right, well, our boxes won't get wet in the rain...
Okay, that's good.
...'cause we'll put them directly in the truck.
Okay. Double bonus.
All right, and I will make sure this stays real good.
I'll wrap it up. Thanks.
There we go.
Okay, great.
And I can just print out a label.
I'll type that into the...
-Sweet. -...system.
-So that's pretty good, yeah? -I'd say so.
I mean, whatever you think will survive.
Okay.
I'm not the wine drinker, unfortunately.
Yeah, otherwise you wouldn't be shipping it.
All right.
We'll weigh that puppy, and you'll be on your way.
Oop!
-Good thing we got it bubbled. -I'm sorry, man.
No worries.

Well, all right. Here. I'll open it,

This is...
Probably is fine, 'cause I had the bubble --
Whoa. It did break. Oh, dude. Oh, no.
Dude, I'm sorry.
Oh, no, it actually, like...
Genuinely broke open.
The lid came off.
No, the lid didn't come off.
The lid is on.
It...it...it --
Broke out of a crack?
Yeah, it went into the bubble -- it went into the bubble wrap.
-Hoo, hoo! -Yeah.
Yeah, these new -- the bubble wrap has --
they put carbon dioxide inside these now,
so, like, the fermentation hits the carbon dioxide,
and it sucks it into the bubbles.
Oh, wow. That's some science.
It doesn't break the bottle.
It just transfers.
What?
Help me understand the science.
So there wasn't a crack that had happened, huh,
is what you're saying?
No, the glass is really a super-cool liquid,
so it's, like, permeable to a degree.
Okay, sure.
So the carbon dioxide inside the bubbles --
once we closed that inside the box
and then I jostled it...
Uh-huh.
So the two pressures tried to equalize each other,
and the wine...
Dude, this is [bleep] crazy science, dude.
Yeah, yeah.
I have an insurance form.

My boss said that technically we can ship it this way,

it'll transfer back to the bottle.

I should probably put a --

I could use a, uh -- I'll use a Safe T Band.

They pretty much replace bubble wrap.

It's sort of like a little rubber bumper on something

So, like, if -- I'll just wrap it around the stapler.
