Trying Dangerous Life Hacks 2

Life hack: 1) Cover your car in hot glue. 2) Peel it off. 3) Second car!

Thinking quickly, William creates a spoon using only hot glue and a spoon.

that hot glue spoon is the life hack equivalent of needing scissors to open up a pack of scissors

I'm a former correctional officer. That cable with the razors is what my last institution likes to call, a "stinger". The inmates don't drink that boiling water. They use the boiling water like a sous vide cooker. They put bags of food in the boiling water to cook it, and then the boiled water is disposed of. The stingers are incredibly dangerous. I once watched an inmate get himself electrocuted while plugging one into a wall. He survived... Barely. He was left with brain damage after the incident, but he mostly recovered

If people actually try these life hacks unironically and something bad happens it's kinda just natural selection at that point

*Drinks tea* *Walks into living room with family*

Your neon sign story reminds me of the time I picked up a free broken microwave as a kid and tried to create a "microwave laser" by focusing the beam with a makeshift horn antenna. This was like 10 years ago so I can't remember what I did to cause it, but long story short, the thing burst into flames and I walked upstairs calmly, about as worried about how my parents would react as I was about any damage the very small but still potentially dangerous fire might cause. And I was like "Mom, Dad, there's a fire in the basement - I'm going to need to use the extinguisher" and I was so calm that, until after I walked downstairs with the fire extinguisher and they heard the spraying, they literally thought I was joking. I didn't get in trouble, amazingly. I think they were so embarrassed with themselves for not taking the situation seriously right away that they just wanted to pretend it never happened.

I died when Michael showed up during the “we are part of the problem”

Fun fact: saltwater electrolysis produces chlorine gas.

William, a victim of a house fire: makes a sponsored video about accidentally leaving the gas running on the stove and blowing up the house Bless this man’s humor

The tea turned so dark because the iron from the corroded blades bound to the tannin molecules in the tea, which are what give it its colour. We use this to our advantage when making natural dyes and inks.

Why didn't people get mad about THIS battlebot?

william: uses electrolysis to produce chlorine gas also william: it smells wierd

When stainless steel is used in electrolysis the chromium turns into chromium oxide and similar other things that are very poisonous and carcenogenic

the image of william osman screaming “IT’S JUST A SPOON???!!” at his computer lives in my head rent free

me on christmas with all the family: "oh hi everyone, just sitting here because i might have a heart attack any minute soon so don't mind me please"

That touchy-wirey tale explains so much about William's life trajectory

Original life hack video: Monetized William's follow up of that video saying the safty hazards: Demonitized Youtube wants us dead chief......

It got really dark because iron reacts with the tannins in the tea and turns black. I use rusty water on oak (a high tannin wood) to turn it very dark in my shop.

They don't call it a death cable in the the trades, they call it a widow maker because... well... yeah its a death cable.
