Shark Thank - no Due Diligence?

Hi Monkeys, 

I have just discovered shark thank and watched 10ish episodes and I am confused. How the hell do they throw 100k to every guy while doing any DD. They basically ask for top and bottom numbers for three years and then make an offer (most times at interesting multiples of revenue). 

Is it fake? do they have money to waste? what is it?
