(3) Exercise video of Johnny's revolutionary Immersion Baptism Aerobics.

(4) BONUS! BONUS! BONUS! Plus to the first 144,000 weighty sinners that call, Johnny will throw in absolutely FREE a genuine waterproof camel-hair leotard

All this would be an incredible deal at $19.95. But we're not asking $19.95. We're not asking $9.95. Johnny's lost his head, and we're giving all this away FREE!!!!!!!
