Trying to Fix a $5 Broken Billy Bass
4,337This is one of those days when I'm fixing something that's just kinda weird. I found this Big Mouth Billy Bass at a thrift store and they said it was broken so I just couldn't resist buying it and trying to fix it. I've never taken a Billy Bass apart so this is new to me but it's fun to try to figure out how things work. For example: does the on/off switch turn the fish on and off... OR does it actually turn another component on and off? Let's find out!

About This Video: In this video I'm trying to fix a Big Mouth Billy Bass that I bought for $5 at a thrift store and which they said wasn't working correctly because the off switch doesn't turn the loud singing fish off. If you've always wanted to inside a Billy Bass but never had a chance to you're in luck because I'm taking it apart so see what's inside and how it works.
