    I cannot tell you how many rings I have cut off with a ring cutter after 9 years as a medic and firefighter. This is easier, safer, and doesn't destroy the ring! Incredible and simple. Thank you for sharing!

    Useful video. An incident happened with my wife and I once. A neighbor came begging for us to help her with a stuck ring that was swelling her finger and turning it purple. We eventually ended up cutting it in two with small scissors. This trick leaves the ring intact, and seems superior to what we did.

  • @malamanuieamelika10

    You can always use butter, or any oil product which the ring will slip over the knuckle, I do it all the time. And you can always wash your hand when done.

    • @DunkinBiscuits
      @DunkinBiscuits Před rokem +4

      This is for when butter, soap or oil doesn’t work. They use this method in hospitals sometimes when the basic steps like butter have no effect

    • @roberttaylor6108
      @roberttaylor6108 Před rokem +5

      The problem is most people have already tried muscling the ring off their finger. This irritates the flesh of your finger from trying to force it off and your finger swells. This method with that wide lace wrapped tightly around your finger helps to push that blood out of your swollen finger. And then as it unwrap the flesh swells back up behind the ring and helps push it off.
