This will happen if you don't pay the contractor for laying down your asphalt driveway🤣🤣 2:40
so is this really the story behind that? 😅 I doubt the contractor made any money after having to pay for the damage 🤣
The real story is unknown, but that was the first thing that came to my mind. :)
@@sneakprev1984
I came to ask for an explanation of that part.
Canadian speak 🎉
@@sneakprev1984 depends on how big the asphalt job was...
I don’t speak French but that guy said “Bluetooth frame” in French😂
That’s not French that’s Quebecer a very unique dialect. He’s Basicly saying the floors are gone. So are the rockers. The hose clamps don’t exist anymore, fuel tank is falling through and that’s the Bluetooth frame a new technology on frames etc :)
@@GotrekGurninsson oh okay, that is cool to know because it sounds like French.
@@jamesnall569hi, I'm the guy in the video. We speak French in Quebec, just like Americans speak English with a different accent than people from the UK :)
Soon to be Fred Flintstone by the looks of that floor board....
@@zombie-yellowça va leur prendre une traduction. pourtant c'était très clair.
guy feeding the shock assembly into that machine cracked me up :D
When those springs go they can shatter your femur , which is the strongest bone in your body . I am sure putting your hand up will stop it tho .
I had one attack me in '97 when a spring compressor snapped. It broke my collarbone and convinced me never to try that again. I was cringing hard during that video. 😅
The spring would be the one with a broken femur if it hit me
Yeah, that hand with a knit glove was killing me. Good way to lose your hand along with your face
@@myrlyn1250 holy sh1t...
Yea... Reminds me of a Ukranian who has a compressor and blows up tires at 50 bar. He sets up mock rooms with stuffed people and sees what happens when things go boom. He even tested it out with a wide tractor tire and wow, the rim became the projectile, went through the wall, impacted the side of a hill and ricocheted. The scarecrow like guy positioned near the tire lost his head.
Sounds like fun in practice, but when it is real, it does get serious really fast. Even working in the oilfield, a guy I knew had his jugular severed by steel that came off a sledge hammer, and he was not even using any tools, he was simply walking past someone joining hammer unions on pig iron. He survived because of quick actions with the on site medic, but was a close call that changed the policy on worn out hammer unions. Someone reading this might remember what company that was from.
7:22 translation from Quebecois to english:today we have a beautiful saturn ion. We have a small hole in the floor, the gas lines are mended with collars. Theres no rockers, the gas tank is nearly fallen out and the best part is the bluetooth frame which is a new technology to make cars lighter.
🤣
French Canadian is an insane dialect
@@joseeduardo4327 real
Osti de crisse de tabarnak! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm French, from France, these guys in the video are Canadian, from Quebec or Montreal, they're speaking a french dialect that us , french from france, struggle to understand
Luckily i'm bilingual so i understand what they said but they're basically speaking a mix of english and french, with a strong accent. So you guys will understand a few words like "Bluetooth Frame" and french people will understand the rest, if you're careful you can hear he's speaking about "La hose a gas" (wich is a mix in french+english that means, the gas hose) then i think i also heard something like "La tank a gas" wich means "The Gas Tank / The Fuel Tank" , it's not that hard tho i agree It's really particular but you get used to it pretty quick, If you're bilingual it's even easier.
I'm glad that prank was done using a musical harmonica. I don't want to think about what would've happened if they used a non-musical harmonica.
That looked to me like a plastic toy-harmonica, so I have my doubts whether it would be 'musical'!
had a friend duct tape a kazoo over someone's turbo blowoff valve one time, scared the hell out of him
@@fatcatpoppy I was wondering how it would be possible to make use of a kazoo in a similar prank!
I can hear the customer with that last one. "My windshield wiper laid an egg!"
🤣🤣🤣
I had one years ago on a little Hyundai Tiburon: Customer states "Rear wiper trying to make love to fuel door." The nut holding the rear wiper on had come loose and popped off it's spline, so when the rear wiper was turned on, it tried wiping the driver side fender where the fuel door is. Cracked me and the other guys up something fierce. Reset the wiper, tightened the nut and kicked it out. I told the Service Desk not to charge the customer because it gave us such a good laugh.
Customer states: Windshield wiper sounds like an angry chicken. Please check.
@5:00 Being a mechanic in Vermont, this is what almost every brake job looks like - you need a torch for almost every part and piece thats older than 3 years and 60% of the time you need to replace and hardware you remove.
I envy mechanics living in the southwest...your jobs must be quick and fun in comparison.
This is why the first time i change the oil on my cars when i get them is take the brake assembly entirely apart and coat the hubs with antiseize. Brakes come apart easy after that.
I started doing this after having a truck that i had to do the same thing on, use a sledge to get the rotors off. Ended up ruining a wheel bearing on the process.
I asked my friend who is a mechanic what to do when you can't get rotors off. He said get a bigger hammer. Ha ha.
I moved down to Texas from Vermont and needed lower control arms done on my S10. Shop quoted 2k back in 2018. It was their way of saying I'm not touching that. Long story short, I learned how to do all my own work short of engine and transmission rebuild because of that one experience. I had to grind and cut the torsion bar out of the lower control arm. Crazy.
I like working on my cars but I wouldn't if everything was rusty all the time. For this reason I could never live in the rust belt.
solidarity from Western Pennsylvania. If I don't have to use the Chinese hot wrench and the angle grinder to get through every simple job, it's a win
Think of it as the weather cooperating to put food on your table.
7:21 let me tell you that even us french often have trouble understanding guys from Quebec
It's the combination of the accent, local expressions and a good amount of Frenglish
The object caught up in that tire that sounds like 'WHEEL OF FORTUNE' looks like a truck driver's lost 5th wheel release hook.😆
That's EXACTLY what it is! 😂
AKA a happy hooker@@americanpatriot3638
Good eye, I guessed it was a street key at first. (Used to turn off residential water meters)
3:59 Wheel of fortune. Surprise he didn't say "C'mon Big Money."
2:58 OMG. 😫 That starter motor buried under the intake made the biggest impression on me. I’d be writing so much hate mail to Nissan R&D on that one.
Brake rotor was made in china from chinisium. Then at 4:15, that rod with T handle and blunt hook, bent around the front suspension, looks like the tool a truck driver uses to pull the 5th wheel pin.
Some trucker somewhere said some dirty words when they realized they were missing that.
Don't know about trucks, but that hook looks a lot like a lid puller that the cable industry uses to open peds and vaults. Usually used on light vaults, whereas the big steel ones are used to open manholes.
I have one of those, and I lift manhole covers with it.
those are also bread hooks used to pull a tray of buns forward at McDonalds - I remember it from the video "McDonalds cashier defends self with metal rod"
@@TrevorSlatery lols I love the number of industries that use this same hook. Must sell them at every warehousing store.
7:52 bluethooth frame😂
4:10 that is a tool that is used to pull the 5th wheel release on a semitruck.
I'm sure a few dozen swear words are tied to that missing tool.
I was gonna say a case hook. Same tool different uses. Yours makes more sense to be on a Highway.
its also a patio stone lifter
we call it a handhole hook in telecom work XD
I would say it looks like a dent pusher, which we always use
Is no one gonna say anything as to how the car is full of Asphalt?
Someone shouldn't have parked where they did.
Someone pissed off some road workers.
But why?
im gonna wager they had an affair and REALLY pissed off their ex.
Shop owner probably bought it off someone that a) failed to pay the asphalt guys or b) woman that cheated on her husband that just so happens to be an asphalt guy.
5:39 adjustable springs. Nice.
That chicken riding the wiper arm is hilarious!
Mechanical bull for the chickens 😅
Wip-kip. (Dutch, translates as seesaw-chicken). It's an actual name of a children's toy in the play ground.
I want a push start button on my Barra Fuse Box too now!! 😂😂😂
Bro just said modern problems call for modern solutions 😂
Seems like they could've routed it to inside the car rather easily.
7:53 'Bluetooth frame' makes it past the language barrier lolz
8:23 Yeah right!…like the hand was going to protect him from the spring.
That and the safety squint, he’ll be fine 😂😂😂
4:23 "The technician discovered that oil was being sucked through the PVC system. . ." Um, it's PCV, as in Positive Crankcase Ventilation. PVC is what plastic plumbing drain pipes are made of.
Everyone knows the PVC systems are on the cars of people with dyslexia.
1:06 One traffic violation doesn't give you free reign to commit another. Those flashing lights are very illegal and a great way for OP to get their truck impounded.🤦♂
1:47 That prank is older than my grandma but it still works.
2:45 Ok, that's not a prank. That's felony criminal damage.
Yeah... I'd like to see the guy at 1:06 do that to an unmarked patrol car. They would probably issue a citation and impound the truck leaving the driver to find a way back home.
I really like the idea of flashing people back, but the obvious danger that creates is unacceptable. Also, no one is going to be able to figure out that they have their high beams on from being flashed like that.
Theses flashing lights should be OEM factory equipped.👍
Make the light color amber and call them safety lights. Problem solved.
@@jonzo22 Jeeps are especially bad.
Why was that Styrofoam cup stuck in the will not melted from the heat at all and only dirty from finger prints?
Yes , set up just to get on video. Styrofoam isn’t very durable.
Normally I’d say something like “the person who engineered the engine is different than the person who engineered the car” but that starter is just malicious
at least there's no spray foam this time
8:50 I'm guessing it was towed in neutral with the driveshaft still hooked up.
chicken on the wiper killed me
4:18 That there is what grocery store employees use to move milk crates inthe back of the dairy cooler.
Couldn't help laughing at the Quebec French at 7:55. It's funnier than the rust on the car!!!! The way he says car - he says VoItOuR!!!!
Actually he pronounced it normally...we mainly say char for cars anyway
@@DyingSlow As a Brit that now lives in Ontario Canad coming across Quebecois always fascinates me!! I think Quebec French is unique in it's own way.
Voiture is the word in any variations of french... so?
Pollito/Chicken makes the video worth while ☺️
That chicken riding the wiper arm is absolutely hilarious!
0:17 Dealership tech did that to my truck (they broke it, not just pulled it off), cost me an extra day at the dealership (recall). 🤣
Harmonica prank is GENIUS 😂😂😂😂😂
lmao love the reaction of that french guy x)
He's not french tho, he's canadian (from Québec)
@@kevinperron5767who speak a different French but still a French
@@BrownLightFR true, but im just saying he's french. Its like saying americans are english
@@kevinperron5767 yeah i know from Québec, but as a french canadian myself we are still called french
I usually adjust my mirrors when I’m getting blinded at night. I even wear amber lenses to help. Think I’ll get the trucks bumper lights!
Make sure they are amber in color. Flashing white or red could lead to tickets for you. Amber colored could be explained as "safety lights".
Started using a cabin filter with Arm & Hammer included 2.5 yrs ago. Most odor free truck I've owned in decades. I usually change them annually.
5:39 gotta love those new variable rate leaf springs
These are bangers. Thanks for compiling these! Hard to find them on the internet anymore. Used to be thousands.
"just rolled in" "mechanical nightmare" on youtube
@@AffordBindEquipment That helps, I'll binge out later today. Cheers bud.
@@dimitar4y you'll find some repetition as they seem to "borrow" from each other.
Thanks Guys. Awesome. Make me feel like a Genius.
Happy to help!😄
Lmao the chicken at the end 😂
I desperately need one of the window chickens! They're so cute!
Honestly, nothing cracks me up more than taking a friggin' sledge to parts that are stuck. Like there's literally no other way.
But nothing will beat the rambo side window one.
4:14 that's a 5th wheel pin puller for a semi truck
Thank you. Will never even think about a Titan after that clip.
just came from the job at the local garage and open up youtube to see other people deal with basicly the same things
1:30 where can i get that fast tire changing system ? 😂😂😂😂
You can make one yourself and save money. All you need is a sawzall with a metal blade.
Perfect choice of music at 0:26 😂😂
@4:07 that's a Dairy section hook so you can grab things that are too far up in the case such as milk, paper gallons of almondmilk, half and half, etc. As soon as I saw the end with the grab handle I recognized it. ... (I use one every day lol).
4:10 in the video I can tell you is a 5th wheel bar for unlocking the 5th wheel on a semi truck.
Tired of drivers behind him blinding him with high beams, this driver now drives a lifted dodge 3500 with limo black windows.
😄👍
That one valve called in sick!
One of these things is not like the others.
4:08 i can tell you what that is. Its a 5th wheen release for a transport.
That chicken was just being extra 😂
At 416 that's a bale hook all bent up 😂
The starter placement on the Nissan Titan is ridiculous. Design for Maintenance is a real thing. Car designers should check it out.
They’re hard to fix so you have to take it too the dealership
I just replaced the starter on my Toyota Sequoia last weekend and it was in the same location under the intake manifold. It's the same with all Toyota 2UZ-FE engines. It a bear to get to for sure!
must be great driving along in a country well knowing no vehicles on the road have ever been inspected since new
the harmonica was a legend
The first one. The Ladies hair is as wacky as the window 😂😂😂
0:15 my friends' audi Q7 had this issue, but it was located in such a way he kicked it off every single time he got out of the car
3:45 this is a dodge dakota with a 4.7L I know because mine did the exact same thing... glad to know it's common
1:10 when everyone else is rocking, but you just want to chill
9:46 the cat 😂😂😂😂
I kinda like the under-hood start button.
probably some old school philosophical Aussie farmer or Southern Yankee, or maybe a rough speaking European saying its "better than modern car rubbish engine immobilisers".
Probably a result of some "redneck" who needed to drive it but didn't want to put any more money into and had some parts laying around anyway.
1:29 Damn, the got the quick wheel release system
Is….is that a chicken on your wiper?
You have the radical left everything looks fine to me😂😂😂😂
Chicken going for a ride, some amazing stuff
I gotta remember the harmonica prank!
I upvoted because: the chicken in the end! Best clip!!!
The harmonica one gave me ideas
0:27 doesn't matter really, as long as the friction surface runs true to the hub it will be fine.
8:45 Now That, that is really ground up Gears!
0:45 i almost started to cry😭😭☹️
That guy can really handle a sledgehammer
The starter motor concealed beneath the intake left a lasting impact on me.
The HD air brake rotor on the semi is called a ‘splined rotor’ . It uses shims and bolts between the splines, but the rotor actually floats. Used on some Hwy Coaches
0:18 great backround music
1:07 😂 real smart blind them so they can crash into your vehicle, very dangerous behavior
In some countries, if something is flashing, you hit the brakes. The speed camera does just that. 😄
That's in quebec i know this for 2 reason 1 theres like 5 people in the entire continent of Europe driving a saturn and 2 they'd be used to citroen peugeot and renault for which this would be "a light coat of rust"
3:58 Wheeel ooofff Fortuuuneee!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
6:26 "SIR, PUT THE WELDER DOWN AND STEP AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE!"
At 4:14 the thing stuck in the wheel was a piece off a semi that you use to pull stuck trqiler hitch dunno how it got their though.😅
4:11 thats where my Fifth Wheel puller went.
Just like at 6:56 i had a customer come in today with a similar complaint, supposedly this noise from his driver's side wheel popped up right after i did an inspection on it, so i popped the hub cap off and low and behold, a rock sitting between the caliper and wheel, i handed it back to the guy and told him to take care of his pet rock.
The part when they had the piece of metal wrapped around the inside of the tire, that is a release for the 5th wheel on a semi truck so they can unhook from the trailer
0:39 one of the few times crappy noise reduction has made a clip funnier.
2:56 The engineer: *"Not my job* to figure out how to design an easily to fix car."
1:18 The sound must have been simply exquisite.
@ 4:08 That's a Pin Puller used by truck drivers to pull the pin to disconnect the semi-trailer from the tractor.
My guy 5:00 putting full trust into his equipment
I love these videos, keep them coming.
More to come!
1:27.im guessing it just started making noise yesterday too.
"teaching them a lesson" is real funny in, like, video games
in real life you get somebody killed because they bruised your ego
i give my respects for customer state guys dealing with bs
7:58 Sayonara saturn lol
I love seeing all these videos! They remind me of why they still give out Darwin awards!
@4:10 is a tool for paintless dent repair I guess 😂
8:26 You're going to see one day (or rather feel most likely) that that hand won't do sh*t when one of those springs decides to fly your way... 🤦🏻
He places his hand in front, thinking it will protect him. 😄
3:31 - hexed car.
Had a Kawasaki ZX10 in my shop, and each time passing it people would bark their knuckles on it, catch their shins, stuff like that. Parts that shouldn’t have burrs, had burrs that cut you. Never had another ZX10 in the shop that had such bad vibes.
In all the time running my shop, it was the only bike I never test rode after working on it.
I was glad to see the back of the fucking thing, as were the guys who worked with me.
I went to the shop down the street that starts with the letter M as well, A simple brake job.
three months later the car is totaled because it rear-ended a truck.
