TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - People are willing to go a long way to try and save the planet's natural resources but Max and Kellie may have found their limit.

Bill Gates recently made a video and blog post talking about a system that boils sewer waste and then takes the evaporated water from the feces, turning it into clean drinking water.

Everyone is a critic, including Max and Kellie who probably won't be running to the store anytime soon to pick up a bottle. See their reaction to the idea by clicking on the video player.

This isn't the first time that poop has been used in an unconventional way though. In 2013, clients were paying $180 for bird poop facials at a New York City spa. And then patients suffering from certain kinds of infections may be given pills that contain fecal matter to help fight the infection.

So what do you think? Will you be drinking the poop-aid when it comes to your neighborhood?

Kellie and Max have some special guests that made Max a little nervous when they started throwing things at his head. Good thing for Max that the professional mother-son juggling team from Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey told him to stay still or he might have had to go home early.
