Well, it's a situation that many of us, especially we women, know very well. You are trying on some new pants in a store but you want to see just how good, you know, backside looks. Twisting, turning, possible neck cramps. That all happens, right?
Alison Kosik, she never has to worry about that, though. She always looks good.
Never.
She doesn't need to spin around, turn around.
Every now and then, I have to check what's going on behind me.
There you go. Make sure no one is lurking behind you. But what's this new product?
Exactly. So, I had to check to see if I could say this on TV, but what we're talking about here is genius. It's called the "Ass Cam." Yes, it is called exactly that.
And a clothing retailer, American Rags, actually trademarked that name. How about that?
Now, here is how it works. I want to pull up this picture because this picture tells 1,000 words. I'll tell you that. There's this closed-circuit camera that kind of sits at your butt level. It's positioned right behind you.
And the mirror is actually in front of you, at eye level, like a TV screen. Don't you like it? They have a guy here checking out his behind, they don't have a woman, which I thought was really funny.
So, on left, you see the guy, he's looking straight there, that's kind of the eye level camera. And, of course, at the butt level is the camera.
So, you get to really this image of your back side that's streamed to the mirror. No more need to go ahead and contort your body to see your back side because, you know, we all have to look our best in our jeans, right, Kyra?
Yes, he is. He's actually looking pretty good there, even though you can't really see the back side. You can just imagine.
All right. Opening bell just a few minutes away.
It is. You know, futures are looking good. We are in positive territory. We got a better than expected report on the trade gap. It showed that it narrowed.
This could be good news for manufacturing, could be good news for GDP, economic growth. So, we'll see if we actually start in the green today.
Real fast, because I know a lot of you are going to want to know where you can find these cameras. They are actually only in two stores, in California, at this store called American Rag. By the way, they are getting positive feedback for it.
And if you do go into this dressing room at this place, it's not in every dressing room. So, you can bypass it. You can opt out of the butt cam
