Very useful life skill. You never know when a phone book will attack you. You gotta be prepared.
Pink Plant Wrong situation. This is more realistic: At party, want to impress people, you find a phone book, boom party tricc boi.
Your both wrong. Itâs for when somebody ask you for your number and you donât like them so when they hand you the phone book you just pretend like you accidentally ripped it then be like... oh shit... sorry bro, sometimes I donât know my own strength but maybe I can give you that number some other time. And there you go, now when someone you donât like ask for your number just do that
Extremely Zavier I'm not wrong you just had the same idea but slightly more elaborate.
You are all wrong it is used when you are bored...đ
Pink Plant you laugh now, but when the phone book uprising begins, you'll be running to us phone book rippers and begging for our help
No phonebooks were harmed in this video...
Only silently and painlessly killed
At least if you learn this you wonât get attacked by one and not lose
R.I.P.
They were given morphine before the recording

Yeah right, takes me three tries minimum. I put it in the right way but think its wrong and dont want to damage it so I take it back out, then I put it in the wrong way and cant believe it wont go in. Then I look at the port and the hole and figure out I was right the first time. Imadipshit.

TaZe YT actually it says âHow to Car Hotwire aâ lol
how to hotwire a car
The Wanderer r/whoooooooosh
Hotwire a car to how
Learn to type using a dvorak keyboard
The Ace Of Spades not really much of a challenge just takes some time to get used to it
PACEY Pineapple just like with anything if you really think about it
Just like every single challenge he did. It's a good idea in my opinion, and follows the theme of the series.
I rather he not. Itâs just gonna screw him up in his daily life.
I mean it's a skill, but not really interesting, or impressive, I'd rather he not as well.
Basically me in English class
Super Suspence jes i saw it aswell
For me....âbasically me in Math classâ
Leonardo Darrell can u tell me what is sin theta + cos theta?
Nazil Akhtar Dunno ..seriously .-.
Except for the fact you actually won't do it because you don't want any problems.
First try and I did it!!!!!!! I just love you !!! Thank you!! I wasn't able to sleep and i found your video, 10 minutes later, the book was gone!!
4:52 Me when I found out schools were shutting down
And then you realized you had online school

The Princeton books for the sat should work perfectly đ
Learn to pen spin
Jrowe 1206 I said that haha
Santi Fer so have a lot of people
I challenge him to learn all the fundamentals in a single day! >:3
Girl: so what skills do you have? Mike: yes
3:35 Now that is some high quality maple syrup right there.
Lol presidents choice
Saw the slow mo guys have a needle thrown through a pane of glass, thats a great trick to have
Dinger Bell which needs a lot of years and dedication to learn. Out of his reach I'd guess.
Dinger Bell took them a decade to learn
It's basically just a trick though, I'm sure it can be learnt a lot faster
Infact, mythbusters had a baseball pitcher manage to chip the glass czcams.com/video/-LjhrqiNArg/video.html not the same as going through it, but to be fair the slowmoguys video one didn't go through the glass either, just broke it. Either way I reckon Mike could get it down!
It doesn't even go through the glass on their channel anyway so he would just need to learn to through something small really hard
Dang, those are some impressive phonebook tearing skills!
Was great finally getting to make a video with you man, enjoy the maple syrup!
+52 Skillz I did enjoy it! It's almost half empty already! Thanks for the help
@Stephen Robinson Any chance you have any more books ? Iâm into steel bending and grip feats but Canât find books either.
Mike. Thank u very much. U just taught me something i forgot over the time. Thank u very much.
3:36 Nice touch Stephen - you made Canadians proud
I love how heâs ripping through my name, Iâm from Edmonton too â€ïž
Where is your name!
Roll a coin on your knuckles like a magician!
big fan
I havent thought about those old yellow pages phone books in forever. I remember i always had one of those massive things in a kitchen drawer next to the phone lol
Now i know what to do with my school books. Yay it worked on my school books thanks mike boyd.
I was thinking when he pulled out the maple syrup, that maybe scots don't know what maple syrup is and he thought it was drink, and I imagined mike drinking maple syrup straight, like we do in Canada, but for different ignorant reasons.
Ryan Cousins ummm... Yes we do..
T-Rex FPV Yall crazy over there lmao
Wait you drink maple syrup? Wtf
Maple syrup is used in cooking right? I can't really imagine any one drinking it straight away.... It'd be way too sweet
Rishabh Vailaya Cooking? No. More like in baking and on pancakes.
Learn to handstand!
Jonaaa Pschl yes
Yes please
YES!!! Try to walk at least 10 meters on your hands!!
YES!!! Try to walk at least 10 meters on your hands!!
Go for it !!
What did we learn?
Mike is left-handed.
This is like the smart kid that learns everything
Questionable Topics no one thinks thatâs relatable
Alex Reyes the damn video is fucking like 6 months old, you expect my 8 worded comment is suppose to get hundreds of likes on a half a year old video? What type of fucking brain cells do you have? Seriously? Like if that all you do?
Edit: 1 year old. You said that my comment is irrelevant on a 1 year old video, now how stupid is that?
Questionable Topics bruh, chill, all he said was that its not relatable. By showing him your anger you just proved that youâre dumber than him as you can not control yourself
Zayaan Atif trust me, I can say worst, what I typed before was more of a threat to see what he would say. Or even if he had the balls to say
@@sauce7624 every one can type worst so now shut up and relax
Please learn to drink a bottle of water in 1 second (I stole this idea)

Lol. Maybe he tore it partially beforehand?
You must have A LOT of talents
This really works. I had teared my two books
Literally 5 seconds after the video I grabbed one of my school books and ripped it in half. Thx mike now I have detentionđ
That big phone book ripping in half in slow mo is one of the most satisfying things Iâve ever seen đ€© 5:09
The reason Why you got so much more subs is because your amazing Scottish accent is so much more relaxing than any ASMR you can find
Dude I did it and it really works. And well too!
Never ever in my life have I ever seen a happier man, ripping pages....
Novel ripped apart easily when torn horizontally because the fibres of paper are parallel horizontally p.s.your channel is great!

Thanks for the trick! I'm starting to learn how to rip 1 page!
Damn, I've gotta try this! If you ever wanna make a video together, I also live in Dundee. Let's make it happen. Re-visit that backflip challenge :)
Turn captions on and pause right here 3:30, the captions says, âGay, Phone birds!â
GD Al where tho
Time stamp?
LOL HOW DID I FORGET THE TIME STAMP
Ok I put the time stamp
I've been doing this with ease since I was 13. They always leave yellowbooks in our mailbox, so I had the pleasure of ripping all of them.
Oh thats why I am 15 and I remember big phone books we still have them here in Canada
Thank you for telling me this! I will do it in the school Library!
