During a competition to source the most expensive items in a storage unit, this YouTuber and his team found a plethora of things, including a car and some slightly more shady items.
The guys split into two teams; one took a Ram flatbed with a dump trailer and the other took a Ford with a flatbed car hauler to raid the storage units.
There was a large disparity between the storage units too, with one costing $551, while the other unit cost just $90.
The items included some suspicious handcuffs, bike tires and even a large array of swords. The piece de résistance was a car, but that came with a catch.

There’s nothing quite like a good old round of Storage Wars, and this YouTuber’s version is a total classic, with two differently priced storage units, suspected stolen goods and a plethora of swords.
The YouTuber HeavyDSparks and his team split into two to source the most expensive items they could from the two storage units.
When the team that landed the $90 storage unit saw what was inside, they were more than suspicious.
There were boxes of bike tires, an engine and many car batteries.
Even weirder was the collection of various swords.
Ultimately, the guys thought maybe they’d found a storage unit full of stolen goods.
The discovery of handcuffs solidified in their heads that the contents of the storage unit had come to be in there by suspicious means.
They also found a Toyota Camry in the unit, but it came with a catch.
There was no sign of the car key in the unit, so they had to drag the Camry out.
HeavyDSparks and his team ultimately lost the competition because they were laughed out of pawn shops when trying to sell the contents.
Their total was $150 because they managed to sell a single saddle, but their competitors sold $509 worth of items.
Despite losing, the team had fun and the game was prioritized over being a real money-making venture.
