Problem is I now find myself looking at every cars wipe pattern, I never used to have this problem, thanks Ian
It happens to us all, sadly lol!
i'm glad it's not just me
@@leeallen7491 does the amb do that
My wife has just declared me nuts for watching a video about windscreen wipers!
Good man, but remember, you are NOT alone.
Don't worry, you are not nuts
The authorities will have you in a list for this type of content.
They sure will, Hub nut aka the pantograph pervert!
He's now not allowed with 100 yards of Halfords wiper blade department 😀
Some of this should be wiped before screening
The Pantograph wiper on the rear of the Bluebird is so satisfying to watch.
Agreed
Oh yeaaaahhhh!!!!!
Your telling me Right? I know someone that owns one with that very rear wiper. Could watch that all day 😮
And also a local ex dealer to me in colliers wood!
What was the green Australian car....exposed linkage indeed.....that was a thing of beauty
I can't believe I have just spent 7 minutes watching wiper action and enjoying it!
Though the wipers that are out of sync with each other do cause a mild irritation!
I found those interesting. What car was it?
@@revolution1one the split screen VW ones were very slightly out; and the totally bonkers A310 ones seem to each do their own thing.
That was very hypnotic, my wife had to throw screen wash in my face to break the trance.
Why would anyone watch a video titled windscreen wipers and then give it a thumbs down? What did these people expect 🤔 I thought it was very hub nut 👍
It's no wonder Elly's wipers are worn out! 😀
Elly needs a manual wiper option like the Tasmanian 2CV.
This was bound to happen sooner or later. We should have screen it coming.
I’ve had a fascination by different wiper patterns since I was a small child in the 1960s! I always look forward to the triangle of doom test.
It's always something I've noticed too. I always notice when a car has wipers going when it isn't raining.
Me too. My sisters used to laugh at me when I made wipers at the dinner table with two knives...
@@chrisharkin3741 I used to do that too!!
@@chrisharkin3741 yeah but dont play with them that much.
Just when I thought I was the only one obsessed with windshield wipers Hubnut came to the rescue. Cheers
Your not alone
Me too! I have found my people!! 😄
I've had a mild obsession with windshield wipers since I was a kid...
Yeah, I'm weird! :3
To some, this is less exciting than watching paint dry, but I loved it! Fascinating to see many designs we don't get in the US!
I stumbled here trying to find videos of wiper arm alignment. So glad I did! Love the pantographs!
same
I was too!
Me too
SAME
I'm obsessed with wipers
If you think Mr. Hubnut is a little weird for making this video, keep in mind you watched a video on windshield wipers wiping!
Yeh, busted lol!
Dammit
And we all watched to the end, guessing what the vehicle is
LOL, is it just me or did anyone else find this video therapeutic, Great fun video yet again well done !
Very hypnotic, one, two, three - your back in the room!
Just when you thought there was no way the internet could get any weirder.
Because HubNut 👌
There’s people who review Toilets
Highlight for me the Saab headlight wipers!
Yeah, they looked pretty weird and must have been fairly reliable to still be operating all these years later.
Hmmm... Really crap or really cool ?
It's a tough one.
Definitely quirky and leftfield, because Saab...
No, got ot be the Hovercraft at the end. I mean Triple Blades ... heaven!
I managed to identify around 90% of the vehicles by dashboards alone.... More of this, please!!
YES SINCE IM A LITTLE KID IM WATCHING THE TRAFFIC NEWS WATCH EVERYTIME ITS RAINING JUST TO VIBE WITH THE WIPERS
Proof that to HubNut, the wiper action is the most important part of any vehicle.
I just spent seven minutes watching windscreen wipers, more than 95% of which I had already seen. I feel this shouldn't have entertained me as much as it did!
Ian has started a worldwide phenomenon of people being interested in windscreen wipers.......
Only on HubNut 👍
That was rather satisfying to watch.
Nowhere else on the interwebs can such greatness can be witnessed.
The inevitable video we all knew would be made one day.👍
My favorit: that red Alpine GT v6
That's my bedtime entertainment sorted 😀
Nice to see you making a clean sweep for the new year.........I'll get my coat. 🙂👍
I liked the part where there were wipers.
I also liked it when the wipers where in time with the music.
Me too!
Which part of
Hubnut king of windscreen wipers, 😁👍
Headlight wipers, very underrated and deserve a category all of their own.
All the wiper goodness
With the odd triangle of doom and a few areas of disappointment
Now that took some serious editing. Definitely worth the results though. 👍
Cheers. It's taken all day!
@@HubNut Worth it though Ian. The Triple Blades on the Hovercraft was absolute heaven. :)
My favourite wipers ever are on a 993 series Porsche 911 - used to love the look and watching them in my Dad’s when I was a kid!
'Now that's what I call wiper action 2021'.........best HubNut compilation ever!
Well that makes up for the lack of wiper action on Ellie.
I've actually sat and watched this, and the worst thing is that I quite enjoyed it. 😂
I've just sat watching this & found it oddly satisfying I think. I'm. Going nuts
"...and climbing the charts, this week at Number 3, it's "Wiper Madness" by The HubNuts!"
I never thought there would be a bunch of people loving wipers as I do.
I am 16 years old and do always simulate active wipers with my arms. The mechanism of these wipers (especially the new types of wipers) is amazing! And you can test it by yourself with your arms on a table with things or so!
Lol same as well, i'm 12 and do the same thing like you do :)
Wow same I love wipers from 3years old to 13 years old now 😊
The most Hubnut of Hubnut videos.
Always been a bit bewildered by your fascination with wipers, but I found that strangely satisfying. Thx.
Why didn't you do this before? Now I want more wipery!
Peak wipage was the SAAB headlight smudger. Perfection.
Idea: what about an indicator video. I do like a good indicator. Front or rear, I don't really mind. Just make each one long enough to give the feel of the cadence involved.
Hubnut gets my vote for internet winner today (again...)
You are on the naughty list for missing out the quirky Allegro wipers.
...so we the unwashed expect this on part 2 :)
3:20 was rather satisfying, and I love the Saab headlamp wipers. The boat at the end was classy.
No words needed just the wiper majesty, a seminal work
Loved the light wipers like a borrower was cleaning the lights from behind the grill I can understand your obsession now Ian Rob
Makes you realise how much the simple concept of wipers has improved over the years
Well that wiped a smile on my face!
Best - Alpine wipers. I also really like the clap hand wipers on 1970s Merc saloons.
3:40 our Morris Minor does exactly the same.
Cleavage of doom!
Mmm, wiper action. My favourite is the A310 - those are bonkers and I could watch them all day. Thanks Ian - old man now happy.
wow just wow, the action the suspense its all to much in one go. definitely a video to save for future generations 😊👍
Those Saab headlight wipers are proper showstoppers.
I love Ian's commitment to wipers, in putting together such a montage and sticking such a jaunty soundtrack over the top. Sunday just had its ante upped
Swish! You are spoiling us Mr Hubnut, we're dribbling!
A few more unique wipers to feature in "Wipers: the Movie", Part 2...
The Seat Altea/Toledo had the most amazing wipers which both parked vertically in the A pillars. British Leyland did unusually well in the wiper stakes with the Princess and Montego (parked below bonnet line!) and the Triumph Stag had a unique pantograph wiper on the driver's side.
The Peugeot 604 and the contemporary Mercedes S class had two wipers which parked parallel in one corner and then wiped an arc, with one wiper travelling twice as far as the other. Older London taxis had odd offset wipers, one parked horizontally and the other vertically, so that one swept up while the other swept down. I remember seeing some headlamp wiper-washer units that operated in turn, so that one headlight was always on maximum brightness.
The Pulitzer/Nobel/Bafta award for wiper ludicrousness has to be shared between the Alpine 310 and the Panhard 24.Thanks to @Chris Harkin!) The wipers on both cars park on the outer lower edges of the screen and swing upwards toward each other, but while on the Alpine they sort of smack together in a "get over to your side!" motion, on the Panhard the wipers swing up and down and never quite meet in weird, asymmetric arcs which some drivers might find to be dangerously hypnotic.
Glad you mentioned the Panhards. !
Have now driven a Panhard, so can add that to a future compilation. czcams.com/video/DoHttV6prgk/video.html
This is... THIS IS THE VIDEO I'VE BEEN WATING FOR!
I started my day with wipers a la Hubnut. Awesome
Fantastic video!
I think people don't understand how important Windscreen wipers, washers are to everyday driving!
The coolest ones were the headlamp wipers and washers on the SAAB, unbelievable!
Watched out of curiosity, kept watching because I really enjoyed the music, then smiled while thinking that this could only happen on Hubnut! It's why we keep coming back, content you won't get anywhere else.
Quality wiper mash up! 😂👍
My whole outlook on wipers has changed completely since I discovered you Ian.' Dribblement of Despair' anywhere on the wiped area is my main gripe though tbh.
Single arm Mercedes windshield wiper is legend
I love coming back to this!
I really liked that Nissan Bluebird rear-wiper, it's nice to look at in action.
I miss my previous car, a 2001 Volvo V70, because it had headlight-wipers, those were very helpful when driving in saltspray.
Almost like a commercial from the eighties, Love the Saab 99.
Australian car test magazines (Motor Manual, Modern Motor or Wheels, don't remember which) once included wiper clearance photos in their technical summary - it seems they coated the screen with some white substance, ran the wipers and photographed the result. This was many decades ago when washers were fairly uncommon and some wipers were straight blade.
It would be interesting to compare efficacy of washer pattern, for which I nominate recent Kias - superb fan spray.
Ahhhhh. The perfect way to ease back to work after the holidays.
Thanks for posting. I enjoyed the wider wiper fest. Take care.
The Carver's wiper is in the class of its own.
I somehow missed that show.
I had a lovely wiper moment a couple of days ago - fresh powder snow and the pantograph wiper on my Audi A2. So satisfying!
the video i never knew i needed. So cool to see all the different ways and mechanism they use
I've been watching to much hubnut 🤣🤣 got in the forklift at work and went "ooh, pantograph wiper", only just noticed. Find myself looking at the wiper patterns on cars now 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love car wipers! When i was a kid i used to copy it on my arms inside the house🤣🤣
So would I! I'd even replicate them with plastic straws...
Just watched all the way through, how do you do it ? I’d of never watched a vid on wipers before, I’ve been hubnuted
The award for the biggest triangle of doom goes to the Morris Minor with the opposed wipers, yay.
Windschield wipers....a mesmerizing item. A real HubNutter fan , cant have enough of it. ( and have a fascinating hate relationship with triangle's of doom🤣)
That's wipe the smile ON my face...
I've always been fascinated with wipers; particularly vacuum wipers. Yeah, call me odd...
Thanks for posting this vid.
Lol, I know I'm a sicko but that was fun. I particularly liked the single one at about 6.50. Very entertaining Mr Hubnut
I never used to pay much attention to the humble wiper before discovering your channel. Now I find myself looking at wiper patterns, searching for the triangle of doom and corners of disappointment.
By far the best thing that happened to me today :))))
Every car has their different unique wipers, also including different wiper movements, some are very interesting, some are very weird and funny. I do like to look at them to see how they look 😅
Nothing beats a video with plenty of rubber action, Ian!! (Er.....wiper rubbers, that is).😵
Ah the good old days when we were allowed to play with windscreen wipers and play 80s electro music
My word, this is marvellous. Bravo!
Love when it rains so I can use the Pantograph wiper on my Aygo! Lol
My wife has made a drinking game where you have to take a swig whenever you mention wipers. Thankfully it's usually only tea, or if be dead.
I love the Rover SD-1 dashboard, but there were so many cool cars here.
This video did not left any corners of disappointment.
Well that's the quickest I've ever got through one of your videos - about 8 seconds on fast forward.
Aw look I wasn’t even paying attention to the video, I was reading thru and laughing at the comments!
SO very Hubnut and entertaining.
Ian, perhaps you should take Ellie to Ypres in Belgium 😂
Very odd idea, yet very pleasing and nice Video
Finally! I found someone with the same weird fascination as me!
The Panhard wipers must be the best ever!
The 190 wins for me the only way have no triangle of doom what so ever.
I once had a Mercedes 190. Best wiper ever. Very smooth very quiet and looked cool. Did its job well. Ahh happy times.
Poetry in motion! About the best wiper action you could possibly hope to see.
The French have the craziest wipers. Panhard, Alpine Renault but also the Mk1 Twingo.
You forgot the odometer driven wipers from the 2CV.
@@robkleinlangevelsloo259 but they have a regular pattern.
I must hastily add Simca Aronde to French wiper quirkiness.
@@volvo480 You're right. But using the odometer for drive is pure genious. Isn't it?
@@robkleinlangevelsloo259 yes it is! It was a great cost-cutter for the cheap vehicle the 2CV was intended to be.
My Ford C-Max has got lovely asymmetrical clap-hands wipers. Highly satisfactory.
i just love seeing the variation of them!
Pantograph and cam action was too much and caused me to have to rush out and squirt my windscreen for my own fun time.
Great video, can't wait for pt 2.
A true art form
