At 1:33, one of the men says "three tortuous hours". At 1:40, his friend corrects him, telling him that the correct word is "torturous". "Tortuous" means crooked; turning; winding. Torturous means "related to torture". Of course, the entire video is comedic, showing how some people are fanatical about correcting other peoples' grammar.
