Does anyone else read text as fast as you possibly can to make sure you read it all before it disappears, then just sit there staring at it for the next 10 seconds, because you had plenty of time?
This channel is now dedicated to appreciation of clever engineering nuances of everyday items, and I'm here for it.
The “armature” is actually called the “spoon”
I once observed a very clever deer use its hoof to halt the motion of the "armature" on one of these sprinklers allowing it to drink from the uninterrupted water stream.
That screen tilt edit. How do you stay so funny and so informative with every video?
"You can make them just go in circles, like most online arguments." LOL!!!
“Just go in circles, like most online arguments”
The old "dampener" vs "damper" idiom confusion is on display. Hint: A spring is a damper. A sprinkler is a dampener.
I didn't know when I woke up this morning that there was anything to learn about sprinklers. This is the magic of this channel. 😊
So do your water jokes in this video still count as ‘dry humor’ or..?
"why has that strange fella next door been filming his sprinkler for half an hour?"
"Something as simple as a water distribution device deserves due diligence."
"It's easier to see because you can actually see it" must be your best quote ever.
2 years later… I grew up with these on our dairy farm as a child and took them for granted. However, I just bought one of these a few days ago and spent 20 minutes playing with the amazing mousetrapedness of it all. As a physics-teaching adult, I have never appreciated it more than I did a few days ago! These things are truly amazing! They are WATER CLOCKS!!
"Like most online arguments." That's what keeps me coming back.
"direction-y change-y bit"
"adjustable beyond their angle of sprinklage"
“When it hits the water like a curious raccoon” lmao
The “irrigating sound” joke at the end was brilliant and perfectly delivered.
Your puns and wordplay extend even to your closed captions;
