    The old school (non autobody shop) way of pulling out a car dent was to use a toilet plunger like a giant suction cup.
    The bowl/cup shaped plungers work best and they come in different sizes. Just remember to clean and spray a little water on the dented area for good contact if needed.
    Plus no chance of glue being stuck to your car or damaged paint.

    What I found fascinating about the Gatorade in monster windshield thing, was that when the windshield shattered it shattered inward. If it were to shatter due to the buildup of heat inside the car and the cold liquid touching the surface of the windshield it would have shattered outward. Thus I think the video that the guys tested was completely manufactured.

    • @SayaFrakture
      @SayaFrakture Před rokem +44

      Plus the very obvious outward bulge in the glass in the center, my bet (from experience with creating this for halloween props) is they used a high powered air rifle, I mean you can even hear it being shot BEFORE the glass breaks cause glass breaking like that does not make a loud enough sound to be picked up on a camera sitting that far away if it was a heat reaction XD Plus windshield and door glass on cars have a coating on them to protect them from such chemical reactions. And well just the fact that if such a reaction was possible and dude there took a sip of each one back to back, he'd be on the ground screaming in pain from said reaction going on in his body.

    5:45 - I love the cut, which isn't blatantly obvious. And then they added some echo to the voiceover. I think it's because when you've got a cut, you've got to rebuild the sound from scratch, and so they used a delay filter to make the voice sound more "incidental". They overdid it by a factor of about... like, a lot though.

    5:52 There is a version of this that works. It's called a "Pedal Dance" in the industry, and of course every model and year of car uses a different procedure, ad it's way more complicated than shown.
    The technique can only be used ONCE, and the car as to be driven to the dealership, as once it's shut of it will not start again even with the correct key until the computer is reset at the dealership. The car is under several restrictions when being transported as well.
    You would call in to the manufacturers emergency line to identify yourself (and might have to pay by credit card if your emergency service is expired) . The procedure is normally only given out to technicians recognized by the manufacturer (there's a North America wide data base) , although there are times when the registered owner has been issued the code.

    Can I just say real quick how incredibly good the sounddesign has gotten over the years?
    The D-List is just so entertaining to be different each time.
    All the soundeffects during the video are so so so well mixed and always on queue with perfect timing.

    I can respect an ad like this, it has a fun idea, and I can see that you've put actual effort, on top of that you even put a progress bar, so I'm gonna watch the whole thing o7

      There was a Tiktok of a guy sending his girlfriend into a car parts shop for blinker fluid and she came out with a bottle of it. His jaw dropped and he was like, "how much did you pay for this!?"
      Honestly, it was actually pretty funny.

      As an ex O’Reilly Auto Parts employee BlinkerFluid is sold through them as novelty item in a one gallon jug.

      It does really exist... But it is not for your car, it is for use on yourself, it's called Visine eye drops, to make your blinkers work better :-)

      @@ThatDudeNamedZ Just curious. How much does it cost? For a pointless item (probably water or something too), I'd expect it to be cheap.

    Drilling a series of holes into a ripped plastic bumper and then stitching it together with zip ties is legit
