Aural Illusion - What Is This Man Saying

Watch the following video and see if you can tell what this man is saying. Watch it several times if you need to. It's a very simple word, but can you spell it?

Now, play the video again, but this time close your eyes. Listen to it several times without looking at it. Did you hear a different word? Is your spelling different this time around? Mine was. This is a cool example of an aural illusion where your visual perception fools your aural perception.

Thanks to Sciam's 60-second Psych podcast for this one!
