Glitter - It’s fun, it’s sparkly, it’s the crafting world’s “sweetheart”. It’s also a life choice that, once made, cannot be unmade. Today we’re diving into the stories of how people got blindsided by shiny glitter. Let’s get into it.

Just. Use. Confetti. I personally have never liked glitter even once. It takes hours to be cleaned up and you can still find pieces of it months later.

Glitter: a unnecessary evil....seriously i always hated the stuff
Don’t forget it’s soooo messy
YESSSS SO DANG ANNOYING!!!
Unnessesary anxiety that's all this video is
Merry Christmas and happy holiday
and especially when it gets in your nails...
That actually happened to me... At the age of 7, I almost went blind. So what happened was that I and my class were doing a dance celebrating mother's day, And my teacher thought what if we put glitter on the girls' hair so when the light reflects their hair will appear shiny on the stage. And guess what happened ?! the glitter went into my eyes ( probably one or two into each eye) and I spend that whole weekend and the week after that, not allowed to open my eyes (they were basically shut by the bandage), forced to crawl to rooms, held like a baby to the bathroom, and worst of all that I couldn't watch cartoons I could only hear it. That experience traumatized me, I feel sorry to all blind people they get it tough + Happy mother's day to the ones reading.
I'm glad you're okay now but that's sounds terrifying and I feel terrible for the people lost their eyes or even their life
That happened to me!!! And mine... is even worse, so it was also really traumatizing and I literally got depressed and anxiety when it happened... The glitter was a star shaped and so their are 5 sharp tips. And it hurted and I thought I would go blind...I got it out when one night eating dinner I was itching my eyes and then it hurted extremely bad so I went to it out. And boom the glitter was on my eyeballs, so I used a q-tip to get it out.. It was one of my happiest days!! It felt so great for the feeling!! A splash of relievedness
Kawaii Editz I'm so happy to hear that you are okay 🙏🏻💞♥️
I got hamster shavings in my eye when I was a kid & had to wear an eyepatch for a week lol.
Never liked glitter and always afraid him
Like, small pieces that hard to get rid off? Oh my gah, sounds scary

This is exactly why growing up, my mom was hesitant to have glitter in the house. She told me the story of her uncle getting glitter in his eye from a Christmas card, which caused a terrible infection and he nearly lost his eye entirely. It traumatized her forever about glitter.
That’s sad mate
That's rough buddy
@@chainsisinapickle2014 omg, Zuko?
@@catherinemaestro1577 Correct
I have small tubes of glitter
I love that Grill just accepts that an episode is coming, as before he was seemingly upset about it.
Ok
He's accepting his fate
Giving in to the brew
He even used it to distract Brew so he can make a present. xd
Merry Christmas and happy holiday
This is why you never buy anything, and i mean ANYTHING that involves glitter. It may be pretty and sparkles like a gem. But are as dangerous as mini spikes that cling to everything.
gems are sharp
also never burn plastic. it becomes atomized plastic particles straight into your eyes and lungs
Well, try telling that to me AFTER I brought my prom dress that had glitter all over it! You should say buy things with glitter but be cautious!
That poor 9 year old. Having an 8 year old, this made me cry. If something like that happened to one my children, I don't think I'd ever recover. I'd blame myself, although where were they... Why was he allowed to do this (put glitter into a whistle)? So sad... I'm literally a mess after hearing that.
I wonder if the parents just assumed glitter must be safe or if they hadn't realized he put glitter in the whistle until it was too late. Either way it's tragic. I had to pause the video and take a break after that one, because I can't imagine the pain of losing a child because of one small mistake.
I'm wondering what parent would give a kid that age a whistle...
@@jenni8200 why can’t an 8 year old have a whistle?
He was 7
I'm from Argentina, turns out that the kind of glitter the boy played with was the thinnest type of glitter not allowed for children. After that incident, that kind of glitter was forbidden. The parents never expected that playing with glitter could be that dangerous, because it's common to use the chunkier one to glue on doodles even in elementary school.
"How did you lose your eye????"
"Glitter."
"I don't like glitter, its coarse and rough and it gets everywhere"
Dont forget it has the high ground...
Don't try it...
Aaaah!!!
I see what u did there
@@diegomanchego07 start wars ref? I dunno if not
There was an episode of "Barbie Life in the Dreamhouse" there there was a glitter shortage that was causing a panic. This was eventually resolved when Ken found an untapped glitter vein within the earth.
Link it
I keep hearing good things about that show
i swear that show has better comedy than any other show xd
Wha-
I remember that episode! I watched it with my little sister.
"Safe"... Gingerbread house... You know not the horrors!
After my grandmother passed, she was a hoarder. As we cleaned out the house digging deeper and deeper we could tell we got to a new year as there would be a large plastic bin with a fully intact gingerbread house. Better yet My grandmother had to habit of hiding important/valuable things inside other things so we had to open them all. The smell that comes from a years old gingerbread house is a unique funk I find difficult to accurately describe.
Well, that isn't really a danger (unless someone ingests it, wich i find unlikely due to the smell that you describe) and it is something that would rarely happen, because the horror comes from the gingerbread house rotting (something that takes a very long time)
Sorry if i have broken english
he is wearing a nice sweater at the end
I’m sorry you had to experience that
4:13 The moment i saw this episode was about glitter, i knew that story was going to be told.
I remember seing that story a long time ago when I was a child, and i remember spending weeks crying because it made me extremely sad that an innocent child died because of glitter. My mom also never allowed me to use glitter since then.
To minimize the dangers of using glitter, please remember to wear safety goggles before attempting to use, play with, or mess with the glitter.
Oh and wear a face mask as well...
And Gloves...
Eh just where a hazmat suit, you should be good.
No just ban glitter from your house hold and put the reasons why.

Brew: “Heck, sorry for my language”
Also Brew: “F*CK GLITTER THOUGH
did he actually say that-
On my birthday, I got these colorful gel tubes with low concentrations of glitter. I then asked my elementary school teacher if I can bring glitter for a Christmas card project and she looked at me a bit startled and very hesitantly said yes. She warned me that I would need to be very careful and clean up after myself afterwards. I was very confused but didn't think more of it. At the time, it was unfathomable to me that glitter was sold outside a liquid medium. The next day. she questioned where was my glitter. I showed her the gel tubes and she let out a huge sigh of relief. She immediately returned to her desk and seemed out of it for the rest of that day. A decade later, I learned it is available, normal, and expected for glitter to be sold loose and I felt bad for causing my teacher so much distress.

Glitter and makeup is much finer than the glitter they talk about here. I don't think it's as big of a problem.
@@melody3741 yeah cause the glitter is fixed with the makeup and if you're careful, you can't really get it in your eye

Don't think you'll be doing that anymore.

I’m loving these Grill, Chill, and Brew interactions, it was one of the best decisions to have them move in! On the Hill is also amazing.
the first dude who got glitter bombed was actually going through his daughter's mail, she sent it to herself to get her dad to stop opening her mail so he kinda had it coming lol
she slays for that
In 1st grade a girl who was a bully tbh got glitter on her eye from all her makeup
My teacher was annoyed that she was crying and rubbing her eyes all class and screamed, she left to go home after they called her parents. My teacher said something about how she could lose her eye and she scared all of us(this was a long time ago)
I just remember she never came back to school that year and the next year I moved to a new school. Im afraid she didnt come back because they had to do lots of surgery on her eye 😩😩😩
“Unless you want to blind them”
Please don’t give them ideas
This reminds me of my older brother. He helped blind children. Too bad he got 25 years.

We all had that friend/girlfriend. Who thought glitter was the best thing ever and used it with everything. Which meant, it got everywhere. And by extension that also meant your house if you had them visit.

I like how grill is more accepting of your. "Reminders"
When me and my friends were younger, we joked around that glitter could "crush your eyes". I had no idea how true that was.
Colored sugar, like for cookies, is a decent glitter substitute that desolves easily if it gets somewhere it shouldn't, but still be careful with usage as the crystals can have sharp edges.
Another fact to be scared and be amused of, Merry Christmas y'all.
I guessed glitter before even the video started

The evil of every event
Hearing how she woke up from the pain during eye surgery really ruffled my feathers. I had eye surgery on my right and left eye, and the numbing drops were ineffective in both. To this day I still cringe randomly every once and a while with memories of an impatient man scrubbing my cornea down.
Wait until you find out that she didn’t consent to having her story on here.
I know a woman who had an appointment with her gynecologist. She took a shower, carefully cleaned herself sprayed a bit of deodorant down there, got dressed and went to the doctor.
She assumed the position and heard the doctor say, "My aren't we fancy."
It wasn't deodorant she sprayed, it was her daughter's glitter hairspray.
MY EYES, THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!
Watch out radioactive man!
Oh no!
Glitter was created by the fallen angel Lucifer himself just to make us all annoyed for all eternity.

"...insurance refusing to pay for it..."
what's the point of insurance?
Highway Robbery
@@optimusprime320-h9c lol
To prevent you from going to jail for not having it. You're paying to be insured about insurance.
This is why I only ever use pre-mixed glitter glue. Hard to get it into your eye or inhale it when it's in a sticky liquid that's too heavy to float in the air. Even so, I'm very careful to get everything off when I wash my hands after using it. How we decided it was a good idea to let clumsy, careless little kids handle loose glitter with minimal supervision or safety precautions is beyond me.
Preach my truth.
That's why I seal my glitter in with modpoge when I use it for a project, it's a lot easier to manipulate, keeps my area clean, and keeps the glitter where it's supposed to be.
I know the chances of getting infected from glitter is low, but that won't stop me from never using glitter again

Insurance -or a least private insurance- is a ripoff. The whole point of insurance is that you're _not_ supposed to worry, but the problem is that so many things don't end up being covered by it because they weasel their way out of coverage even if they're legally in the wrong. The real insurance is saving some money for emergencies and not having to waste a bunch when you don't even have anything wrong going on.
Insurance is a bet against yourself.
@@scarfabledscar yep. And the insurance companies are the house. But for people with chronic conditions, the math usually works out. Assuming you were covered before those conditions devloped or covered by an employer
Did you know, Glitter is used in forensics BECAUSE its so hard to clean up? I'd love to see Brew cover this topic
My mom once made me a snake costume for a 3rd grade play, and it was a good last minute costume BUT it had one of those masquerade masks which was ALREADY PAINTED GREEN, and she needed to cover it in glitter. I proceeded to do the play almost blind and my eyes tearing up in pain. So yeah fun play.
I’m never going near glitter again

Anyone remember the old brew? And I don't just mean when he wasn't all "which video will be the most out of this world and maybe kinda clickbaity," I mean when the animations were, well, let's just say... Less high quality? I remember the episode when he just went from being what he was before to super high quality and was just like "oh, that's cool." I miss that brew sometimes.
But eco friendly glitter! It doesn’t affect the environment and is almost the same. It can be found on Amazon!
The ones that degrade should be nice. Edible glitter's probably good but idk.

@Maya Alvarez edible glitter are just sprinkles
Except of course that Amazon is terrible for the environment.

Personally, when I was younger I had these glittery elsa gloves and I was using them and then I scratched my eyes and- well- yeah.. some stuff happened, I had a swollen eye too. not good stuff- at all. I don’t really remember a lot since I was pretty young.
I develop hypochondria every time I watch one of these videos.
*1:30** this hurts my eyes*
I once woke up, with something in my eye, didn't know what it was, went downtown to work, could not stand it anymore, went to the medical clinic, and the doctor told me I somehow closed my eyelid while sleeping, capture a mosquitoe by the leg, the bug pulled and left the leg there. They removed it with a qtip.
