- Hey guys, how you doing?
My name is Robby, AKA,
the freakin' Craft King.
You're favorite life hack tester.
One and only,
Yeah that's me.
(laughing)
And today, we're going
to be trying hacks from
a bit of an older video.
And that is
(digital beeps)
useful life hacks that you should try,
by five minute crafts.
Anyway, just sit back, relax,
watch me do some dangerous life hacks,
and you're in for a treat today.
(yelling)
(punching)
(upbeat music)
Okay guys, first things first.
We've got our lighter,
we got our paper clips,
but we only really need one.
So we're just going to go
ahead and unfold this bad boy.
Boo, boo, boo, and our pliers,
just kind of straighten it out.
That's straight enough.
Make our little loopty-loops,
they only did half ones, but
I'm going to do full loopties.
That way you have something
to put the little rubber band inside.
That looks pretty good.
Pliers to the other side.
(bell rings)
Perfect.
And they used a pen to
make the middle loop,
but I'm just going to go ahead
and use a paint brush instead.
Here we go.
Come on, get in the middle, oh no.
You know what!
It's close enough.
Yeah, looks pretty good.
I just have to check one thing.
Does our match fit?
(failing music)
That would be pretty bad
if we got all the way
to this point and we're like nope!
Oh, it's a perfect fit.
Dude, awesome.
Go ahead and hot glue the wire on.
Put it on just like that.
(fire crackles)
Yes, perfect.
And we'll dab a little
hot glue right here.
And we put our paperclip on.
(crashing)
Oh no, this might be a little
bit harder than I thought.
Let's take this part off.
I am kind of confused.
I think I might have used
too big of a paperclip.
It would have been probably way better,
if I did this to the
side, like this instead.
Hmm, they just glued it on.
They just didn't care.
They were like "whatever".
I feel like I need to
think of a better way
to make this stick.
So it needs to be at least
this length for the match.
So, I'm just going to glob
a lot of hot glue on there.
Hopefully this will work.
I don't know.
I'm so close to getting burned
with hot glue right now.
(small explosion)
Oh my God!
(furniture banging)
(slow motion small explosion)
- (slow motion) Oh my God!
Woo, oh my God.
Ah!
(metal clanks)
I think it popped the lighter.
Holy crap!
It just busted through the lighter.
Oh my God, that's insane.
I don't think I want
to do this one anymore.
Guys, this is really dangerous.
I don't know if this
is worth trying again.
It turns out, hot glue guns
and lighters don't mix.
(dramatic music)
Whoa!
Dude, you can't even see
like where it punctured it.
Oh, wait, yeah you can.
You can see where it exploded right here.
Wow!
Dude, that's wild.
Well guys, I'm going to have to say
don't try this one at home.
It doesn't work, not worth it.
(displeased groans)
I'm scared for my life now.
Is your spoon does not working?
Are you just not getting enough cereal
for every time you dip your spoon in?
Well, I have a solution for you!
All you gotta do is grab
yourself a nice hammer
and just freaking pound
that thing into oblivion.
(punching)
There you go, your spoon is all fixed.
(cheering)
(upbeat music)
(metal clanks)
So here's our can!
And the first thing they said to do was
to get the little flappy tab back up.
So I'm going to go ahead
and use this paperclip
to kind of triangulate a little hook.
Pull it like that, ah.
So close.
No!
Holy crap!
I think I need to make a smaller hook.
(wobbling squawk)
(bell rings)
Yes, perfect!
That's a pretty tiny hook.
(swishing)
(dramatic music)
Ah!
I'm just going to cover
that with hot glue.
Fill in the cracks with some hot glue.
Make it nice and air tight, hopefully.
(strings plucked)
There we go, yeah!
Next, we're going to go
ahead and grab our drill.
Grab the appropriate size drill bit.
I don't know what that would be.
Would this be the appropriate size?
Uh!
They didn't tell you what size
drill bit to use for this.
(spring released)
These are the really small ones.
So I'm going to say it's this one.
(drill revs)
Cool, cool!
And they did how many holes?
Two, four, six,
so six holes.
(drill revs)
One,
(drill revs)
two,
(drill revs)
three,
four,
(drill revs)
five,
(drill revs)
six.
And then one down here.
Looks good!
And then we grab our syringe.
And I'm hoping that this one works.
It looks like this one actually
went to like a barbecue,
or this is more of like
a turkey baster syringe.
Will it fit?
(metal snaps)
It works!
Next, we grab yourself a lighter.
Undo that, boop!
Looks good.
And they just kind of hot glued this part
onto the lighter, like this.
I think I might have overdone
the hot glue a little bit.
I'm sure it will be fine.
There we go, aha.
Hot glue it more into place.
Ut-oh, it kind of moves whenever
(wobbly squawk)
I hope this works.
Gonna let that cool down for a little bit.
- [Announcer] Twelve seconds later.
- [Robby] Okay, I think I might
have thought of a solution.
I'm going to take this little metal piece,
you know this little guy, the same thing.
And I'm going to put that inside of here.
(metal clanks)
Ah!
Instead, I'm going to close it up.
I'm gonna put this back on here.
I think that might do it.
Seal that up real good.
Okay, yeah!
I think we have a winner.
Wait, here's the real test.
(dramatic music)
Oh, yep, it's working!
(punching)
Oh God!
I wasn't suspecting that to actually work.
That's awesome!
So now we're going to put that into here.
(string plucked)
Fill this guy up.
(squishing)
Let that go ahead and cool for a sec.
I'm okay, we're going to try this again.
Hold it wide open, oh God, I can hear it.
(lighter flicks)
It's not lighting.
I don't like that, I
don't like that sound.
Hey Chris, can you try lighting it?
(laughing)
I'm going to turn off like
a couple of the lights.
So you can actually see it.
Ready for this?
So I'll hold it, like down here.
And you just light these holes.
Here we go, I don't like that sound.
This makes it go upside down.
Now try it.
(comical blasting)
It's not working, wow.
(failing music)
Well guys, oh, wow it got hot there.
Oh, that's where you had the lighter.
(punching)
Well guys, I'm gonna have to
say that this one doesn't work.
Lame!
(slow-paced music)
Okay guys, before we start
this one, we need a joke.
What do you get when you mix
an owl and a bungee cord.
I'll give you guys like
five seconds to answer this.
You ready?
(guitar music)
One,
uh two,
uh three,
uh four.
Oh this is lame.
Okay, time's up, are you ready?
(television static)
(laughing)
Lololololololololololol.
Guys, was it worth it for the joke?
I don't know, but now,
I have to erase this.
But I don't have anything
to erase it with.
Or at least that's what
I want you to think.
(descending whistle)
Okay, you ready?
We're going to see if this one works.
I don't know guys, I don't know
if this will actually work.
We're about to find out.
(dramatic music)
(gasps)
Oh my God!
It's actually erasing it.
What?
Wow!
Well guys, if you have
a giant white board,
and you need to erase it fast,
I guess a mop is the way to go.
So I guess we're just going to have to say
that this one works.
(bells ring)
Look, remember the early
days of quarantine,
when toilet paper was super hard to find.
Well this girl's having
that problem right now.
Luckily, her boyfriend
comes to the rescue,
with some paper towels.
Look, please don't do this hack,
because paper towels are honestly,
really bad for your septic system.
Like if you want to clog
a toilet really fast,
this is the perfect way to do it.
But don't do that one.
(upbeat music)
Okay,
(comical boom)
So I've just got to
find myself, oh perfect.
A permanent marker!
Just what we needed.
Don't need these any more.
(crashing)
Oh, it smells so weird in here now.
So now that we have our marker,
all we gotta do is get a lighter.
I'm going to use the one
that actually exploded.
So, apparently they just
hold this on like that.
Boom, perfect!
(bell rings)
And they took this protective
layer off, like that.
And shoved that right on there, yep.
Wow, wow, this is working
a little too well.
Okay, you guys ready for this?
Oh no, it won't even twist now.
(failing music)
I have to shorten this guy.
Ut-oh, maybe this will do it.
Okay, here we go.
Okay, cool, try this again!
Okay, three, two and
(string plucked)
(lighter clicks)
Oh no, it's falling out now.
I think it's just a little too big,
so I'm going to try it like this maybe.
(lighter clicks)
(surprised gasp)
Will it stay lit?
Twist it.
It's not lighting.
Okay, maybe I'll try it with
a different kind of Sharpie.
I'll try it with the original.
There we go.
(surprised gasp)
(fire burning)
It's actually staying lit.
What, oh my gosh.
Wow!
Well guys, I guess we can say
this one works.
I wasn't expecting that.
(air blowing)
Will it re-light itself?
(drum bangs)
It looks like a one time use thing.
Does the Sharpie still work?
(squeaking)
Oh, its kind of a waste of Sharpie though.
I mean, a Sharpie's like
a dollar, two dollars.
Verses a lighter, that
you can get three of these
for like a buck.
Honestly, probably not worth it.
But, I guess we could still say it works.
Okay, so she's like, oh no!
My spoon isn't sticking on my Nutella.
So what's she do?
She just puts it in her
mouth and starts biting it.
Ew!
This is a good way to
chip your fricking tooth.
I bet her dentist loves her.
Perfect, now you have a
spoon that will nicely
nest on your Nutella, so
it doesn't have to touch
(bells ring)
the table?
I don't know if this is
a good use case for this.
(upbeat music)
Okay, first thing we need
(banging)
tin foil!
And unfortunately, I have a
lot of messed up tin foil.
So, I have to get an un-ruined piece.
There we go!
Okay, we're going to try our best,
and cut this as straight as possible.
(raspberry)
No!
I'm going to use an Exact-o knife,
because I feel like it's sharper.
(horn honks)
Oh that's so much better, I thought.
Turns out, it wasn't better.
(raspberry)
No!
Okay, try this again.
Back to square one.
Ah-ha.
Let me go ahead and get
a stick or something.
And just roll this over it.
I'm going to cut it a little bit shorter.
There we go.
Go ahead and roll it up.
(chicken squawking)
(ascending whistle)
Whoop!
Dude, perfect.
So apparently now we just
put this inside of a lighter.
Good, okay.
Guys ready to see if this works, and?
(dramatic music)
(chicken squawking)
I think I have to turn this up actually.
Huh, we'll try this again.
Oh!
If that doesn't do it,
I don't know what will.
Put that back in there.
Light our match, and you guys ready?
One, two and
Whoa!
It's working, woo!
Well, it went out really fast though.
Maybe its because I was waving it around.
We're going to try it one more time.
Okay, now it's not working
any more, for some reason.
(small boom)
Oh, I spoke too soon.
Wow, that's fun.
(failing music)
I mean it works for like a
second and then it stops.
Well guys, I guess we're
going to have to say
that this one, it kind of works.
But for the most part, it does work.
A very temporary solution,
but yeah, it works.
