One warning for anyone who has older pipes, don't use anything air pressure related. It may result in the pipes blowing open. I've seen it before.

I genuinely said "holy shit" out loud when the pickax blew a hole in the Iron Man mask at three paces

That's not a plunger, that's a potato gun

I’m eating lunch at a Mexican restaurant alone and watching a video about plumbing products as I sip my margarita. What a Monday

[ThatReallyWeirdArtist]

I'm absolutely addicted to these videos. Omg. Oddly satisfying. Genuine information. I love it.

[DragonBuilds]

They actually sell clear P-traps at Home Depot. Super convenient for seeing if it's clogged or not.

[mockingdream]

His voice will carry on. Dylan my dude you were a legend

[steggc]

Those co2 powered units can destroy old plumbing!

It was really nice of you to mention Grant in one of your videos. I think it was the last video you made but I think it was really nice. The King will live on in our hearts. 👑

How was no one smart enough to use the same clog on every item so you could actually compare anything...

[brocolissillian]

It was all fun and games untill you made me cry with the "I love you 3000"

"MARY DRAIN AND I, WE'RE GONNA HAVE ONE HELL OF A TIME!" -The Green Gobbler

[Justin_Ebright]

Hey, as someone who's worked in and around plumbing, I wouldn't use the Clear Drain to save my neck. It can and will get rid of most clogs. But some clogs will just get compacted by the pressure making it that much more of a hard job to fix. And worst-case scenario, and the real reason I wouldn't use it, most houses have older pipes. Maybe the PVC has become more brittle, maybe the glue has lost adhesion over time, but if that pressure has nowhere to go, it goes out to the pipes. And heaven help us all if it's an even older construction where they used cast iron or bermico.

Sure, the water will drain, you may not even know you busted a pipe. So then you have open drainage into your walls and down into the foundation. In the best case there, you noticed and now have to tear into the wall and replace pipes. If you don't? Water is a powerful thing, and over time, it'll mess your foundation up and could even lead to a sinkhole.

In this case, a little more time and physical effort are better than the quick and easy fix.

I'm a simple woman. I see household hacker video, I click.



Anyways I miss the lifehacks you guys do, but keep up the good work!

[killerkonnat]

If the pickaxe works well, that seems like a pretty good product. It's using standard CO2 cartridges which means it's a lot easier and cheaper to get refills for it than the first product. You only need to buy it once instead of getting constant refills from the manufacturer.

RIP buddy RIP. We'll miss you. Thanks for more than a decade of viddyaz.






PS: my 5 yr old boy broke down into tears. Then he cried again when I put him to bed. He said, he wishes he could go to heaven right now. So he could give him a hug.
I don't expect him to give much of a though about what happened. It made me feel proud that he cares for other people like that. Dylan felt like a friend to more people then he probably realized.
