To be fair, he said it like "Upper Peninsula, Minnesota, Wisconsin"...I think.

Not that there aren't numerous opportunities to rip this thing to shreds. He did say it'd be 5 minutes about twelve times, while turning out to be under 3 minutes before 'bloopers', which weren't even bloopers as much as them doing wacky rewinds/fastforwards.

Crap that was bad. Guy has ADD during his own voiceover, he's talking about the the number to call and goes 'ooh! an island! someone owns that!'

I got the impression that he didn't know what state the UP was in, but you may be right.

_________________

While he did just ramble about UP---Wisconsin----Minnesota etc at first, he did go on to suggest that while standing on that plot of land that you would think you were in the Upper Peninsula of Wisconsin.

The best part, I think, was when he stated how "you forget how you're in the hustle and bustle of the City of Chicago..." just as they pan across to a jet flying across the sky. Hilarious.

Wonder if the people that own that big house across the lake like him zooming in on it, saying you could build a house like that.

Funny how he stresses 5 minute tour, and it's really only a 3:33 tour (with a horrid blooper real accounting for some of the time). It's a couple of lots on a lake, North, what is there to "tour"?

Classic indeed, thanks for sharing.

Outstanding find! What a fucking joke- nice grass and bare spots, just like his career, lots of bare spots.
Funny shit.

"Look at my girl Paula getting out of the way so we can see this wonderful peice of property."

"Oh an island!"

What a classy guy!

Bloopers seal it for me though. Why would anyone find that funny?

Did you notice as he says "you forget you're in the hussle and bustle of city living" a low flying plane flies through the scene?

Anyway, this honestly comes across as a video they would play to illustrate just how insane North got over the years. "So first, the guy told WSCR to fly a kite when they offered him a ton of cash.......Wildfire...DontFadeMe......Webio.......Monsters.....And Money.....Paying The Sun Times To Write A Column.....etc.............then he filmed THIS video to sell off some land he bought when he thought he could do no wrong."

Is this considered "A gig" for the record?

With those solid marketing techniques, he should get his price.

The Agents Remarks on the listing sheet say : See the Video too...(and it's pretty funny as well)

That is solid marketing

Competing land on the Lake just lowered price from $729K to $599K, North still at $889K per lot, and he has 2 of them.

Top notch agent he's got.

He probably isn't in a hurry to sell those lots due to the smashing success of the MNEN. Most of his videos have single digit views already! I believe once they reach the 1000 view level Youtube starts sending the checks. He's almost there!

Just a drop in the bucket for the North Empire!! Those Vegas condos have to be skyrocketing!!

The guy said Vegas was doing nothing but going up, so he put his money where his mouth was.

???

How can they put the details of the dream house on the real estate listing like that? I know the horribly written description says the thing about Mike North being so nice to throw in the drawings worth thousands, but how can you post pictures of an imaginary house and put down actual room dimensions?

No changes, still priced at the Bargain of $1,860,000!!!!!
