You think with the power of deduction reasoning, Mike would notice after 2 attempts that the only part remaining was the overly cracked bottom, and not crack it as much on the third go.
I wonder if on some level it's ironic watching Mike seem to unduely struggle with these things given infomercials wont for showing unbelievable amounts of struggle to preform the "before" task
Well, after he couldn't figure out not to put the Strutz on upside down with the box, instructions, and the informercial itself on hand to tell him how to do it correctly, and ignored the comments of the video telling him exactly how badly he screwed up, I've pretty much given up hope of him even caring whether he's doing it right or not.
i actually kinda like peeling eggs by hand. it's oddly satisfying to get the shell off in (mostly) one piece. however, i'd be curious to see a steroid version of this thing, involving an industrial air compressor
I love how the commercial also tries to sell you eggs. It's like "What, you don't have a problem with opening eggs because you don't eat eggs? Well, eat some friggin eggs! You know... Proteins!"
Where does the bottom of the shell even go in their dramatization? It's not attached to the discarded husk. I guess we know why they used white eggs instead of brown ones. Also, it's incredibly simple to just shock the eggs with ice water after you boil them, and the shell just pops off.
Woah, woah, woah! Can we just pause a second to comprehend the monstrous concept of "egg trifle"? 0:50 Oh forgot the mandatory "but does it grate cheese?" and the eternally entertaining "put your willy in it" comments. AAAAAND do a week on eggs! I think we all really need to see you choke down "eggs with strawberry jam" and any other questionable recipe suggestions in that booklet.
See, the problem with the "put your willy in it" comments is I'm pretty sure this thing started life as a sex toy and got repurposed. We're all too scared that, in this one unique instance, he might actually do it.
The detailed instructions do mention you have to put the eggs in ice-water right after boiling them, to let them chill down. I think this is where the magic happens that the egg-stractor's functionality banks on, in that it loosens the "skin membrane" of the egg inside the shell, due to shrinkage from the sudden temperature drop. It's the oldest trick, rinse eggs with cold water before peeling, and the shell comes off much easier.
I also love how according to the informerical the only thing complicated or time consuming in creating all of those different egg dishes is the peeling...which is probably the easiest part of creating any of those dishes.
Oh my goodness Mike! I always say thank the Lord for you! From the moment I start the video until the time it ends, I'm just about laughing the whole entire time! What would I do if there was no Mike Jeavons? There wouldn't be as much laughter, not as many smiles, not as many sunny days and not much to look forward to. 😊 "It's going to change the way I eat eggs? What, am I going to shove them up my bum now or something?" . Ahhhhhahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! You're a rare breed indeed, Mike. A rare breed indeed. 😁👼💗👍🌼✌🍀
I personally like runny egg yolks with a jam or jelly, but I've always liked that savory-sweet combo. I can see it being an acquired taste. I definitely wouldn't do it with hard boiled eggs.
1:10 it’s amazing how this infomercial single-handedly proved that you don’t need to buy the product. All you need to do is crack the top and bottom of the egg and blow on one side for the exact same effect. The egg just pops out of the shell. Well done!
Okay, A, the egg salad they show on the box isn't egg salad, it's a salad with eggs. B, my parents bought one of these and they suck. Even worse, the egg has to be fully cold to use it and I like my egg still warm from cooking.
CLASSIC JEAVONS THIS. Your videos genuinely make me laugh out loud. I'm finally going to subscribe as I want to see what you'll do when you reach 200k.
Andrew, Only vegans would be happy to deprive a man who enjoys a steak of his meat. I feel sorry for him. When he starts the worst thing ever I'll go to my local butcher shop and pick up some fresh pork, beef, and chicken, and I will think of him and vegans as well since they are silly enough to skip meat.

Hey, you got FANTASTIC results compared to MOST of the reviews I've seen on this thing. Most people almost give themselves a heart attack just trying to get the egg out! lol
You failed at using it...LOL Over cracking the bottom, do like the TV and hit the small end then a tap on the bottom and put it in. Really simple and works every time.
Congratulations on the subscriber milestone! :D I enjoyed you riffing on the infomercial at the start. A pity this thing didn't quite work. Peeling a couple eggs for breakfast is nothing, but you start wishing for a fun way when you've made a dozen for deviling. XD
I kind of wanted to see it tried on white eggs too. It kind of works, but not like in the demo where it was a perfect egg dump. Though they could have just used white eggs to make it seem like it was a perfect peel since the shell and the insides are such a similar color.
If you don't mind the taste of vinegar. You can just melt the egg shell with White vinegar since it will eat the carbonate that is a shell. Takes a day tho, and again hope you don't mind a vinegar taste.
Congrats on 100k! For me, this looks easier than when I peel hard boiled eggs, but I'm sure I just suck at it. I've seen people peel them with no problem, and I'm like, "What am I doing wrong?....." O-O Still, this isn't perfect nor ideal. I'll definitely check those life hacks you mentioned.
Sometimes I wonder why they put overly detailed instructions on simply devices...then I remember that there are people like Mike out there. Bhahaha :) Love you man!
Pretty sure eggs in the US have much thinner shells than UK/EU ones due to them being heavily treated with chemicals and disinfectants that strips away outer layers (hence why the eggs you see in the US are nearly always pure white) it's also why eggs in the us are sold refrigerated, the taking away of those layers means they go off really fast.
I noticed there was a hole in the bellow facing the camera. Not sure if that would make a difference but I imagine it's not forming a tight enough seal to push the egg out of its shell
1. So I realize that many of these gadgets are supposed to help people with disabilities, but given how slidy this thing is and how much pressure is required to make it semi-function, I have to think it might actually cause more disabilities... 2. Congrats on 100K subs, Mike! 3. Put your wi-no, no, I can't say it.
I like how they do more to sell the idea of eating eggs more than the product. "DID YOU KNOW that you can make EGG SALAD with EGGS?!" (Zoom in on a child saying "wow")
I'm thinking the issue here with this thing, is that it's made with American eggs in mind. European/British eggs actually tend to have a thicker shell than American ones, among other things.
I think the "air cell" is in the wide end of the egg, the instructions have it the wrong way around. Maybe pierce the wide end and crack the pointy end and put the wide end upwards?
Hey Mike they say about the air pocket on the advert. So arent you supposed to put the fat end up? My eggs mostly got air pockets over there. So maybe You could try to make a hole in the fat end and break the tip?
This will only work with U.S eggs because of the way they treat them before shipping. They annihilate the shell by bleaching it for some kind of quasi-cleaning reason thus making the shell super brittle. This is the reason why you can keep British and EU eggs out of the fridge for weeks (the way eggs should be kept for culinary reasons) while U.S eggs HAVE to be refrigerated.
But. A week on eggs.
You don't have to eat them. You could walk on eggs, sit on eggs, ...
...lay eggs...
Be THE egg
Walk on egg shells the entire time
I want to see Mike hatch eggs and raise baby ducks. Or ostriches.
ö. . , just go to how to basic
You think with the power of deduction reasoning, Mike would notice after 2 attempts that the only part remaining was the overly cracked bottom, and not crack it as much on the third go.
MrGreenYeti you're new to this channel aren't you? Lol
He's infamously oblivious to the obvious
No actually, it just baffles me he's still oblivious.
I wonder if on some level it's ironic watching Mike seem to unduely struggle with these things given infomercials wont for showing unbelievable amounts of struggle to preform the "before" task

or an egg with dan's face.
OI! That's my line.
HEY MIKE I JUST HAD A GREAT IDEA!! SINCE THIS COMES WITH A RECIPE BOOK WITH 101 RECIPES YOU SHOULD DO A wEeK oN EgGs
A week on Salmonella.
ONLY EGGS CAN SUSTAIN HIM
He said he wont
@@Dim4323 this is a four year old comment 🗿
WEEK ON EGGS. WEEK ON EGGS. WEEK ON EGGS.
MAKE ALL OF THEM
i actually kinda like peeling eggs by hand. it's oddly satisfying to get the shell off in (mostly) one piece.
however, i'd be curious to see a steroid version of this thing, involving an industrial air compressor
It'd be an egg launcher!
Daniel Gehring Then there'll be that one idiot that forgot to chew and ends up choking, and sues you for it.
5:39Basil be like "What the deviled egg is going on here?"
They get bonus points for the name "Eggstractor".
Makes 1/10 total.
I love how the commercial also tries to sell you eggs. It's like "What, you don't have a problem with opening eggs because you don't eat eggs? Well, eat some friggin eggs! You know... Proteins!"

Also, it's incredibly simple to just shock the eggs with ice water after you boil them, and the shell just pops off.
He overly cracked the bottom. It's supposed to just crack it a bit, but then he just. Cracked it too much at the bottom.
Notice they used white shelled eggs in the demo - crafty, that.
They're using white eggs because that's the normal kind of egg in the US.
Pook365, unless you live in New England where brown eggs are the norm.
White eggs aren't any more common than brown ones in the US. They're both sold in the grocery stores and farm markets.
The mere notion of a child willingly choosing an egg over literally any other kind of snack is just hilarious.

Congrats to 100000 subscribers!
You know what this means? It means he has to do a week on vegan food.
zh84 It will be glorious!
zh84 yes!!
zh84 Considering he did a week on juicing I’m pretty sure that won’t be very hard.
6:53 We want more pleh, less hunh.

"I'm not going to do a week on eggs" Get out of my head Mike!
100K SUBS AND WELL DESERVED!! One of my fave RUclips channels!! Please never change
Oh my goodness Mike! I always say thank the Lord for you! From the moment I start the video until the time it ends, I'm just about laughing the whole entire time! What would I do if there was no Mike Jeavons? There wouldn't be as much laughter, not as many smiles, not as many sunny days and not much to look forward to. 😊 "It's going to change the way I eat eggs?

eggs with jam?! what freak wrote that recipe booklet?!
I personally like runny egg yolks with a jam or jelly, but I've always liked that savory-sweet combo. I can see it being an acquired taste. I definitely wouldn't do it with hard boiled eggs.
The best bit is the infomercial suggests "Apple egg delight".. What even is that travesty
Google tells me the "air cell" is in the broader end of the egg, try it the other way round Mike!
1:10 it’s amazing how this infomercial single-handedly proved that you don’t need to buy the product. All you need to do is crack the top and bottom of the egg and blow on one side for the exact same effect. The egg just pops out of the shell. Well done!
Do a week on Morrison’s wonky range
not that interesting its just some slightly funny shaped vegetables for the most part
I got some wonky onions yesterday
Omg so it's actually disabled fruit and vegetables I thought it was just a new range name lol
I'd see the doctor about that
Okay, A, the egg salad they show on the box isn't egg salad, it's a salad with eggs. B, my parents bought one of these and they suck. Even worse, the egg has to be fully cold to use it and I like my egg still warm from cooking.

Hey, you got FANTASTIC results compared to MOST of the reviews I've seen on this thing. Most people almost give themselves a heart attack just trying to get the egg out! lol
I love how they managed to write hard boiled eggs in so many different ways in the instruction manual / recipe book!
You must be hungry if you need an 101 egg recipe.
Christ Mike you're getting these out regularly
I love seeing you more often Sir
Fine... a MONTH on eggs it is!
(I mean, you got 101 egg recipes now, so it should be a breeze!)
This product did not live up to my eggpectations.
Does it cheese?
You could actually probably try to peel brie with this thing. It wouldn't work, but you could try it.
I'm sorry, is it called the "Eggcheester"?
Windows 95 Nah, been watching infomercialism for about five years. I'm aware that everything must cheese! XD
Well done for 100K. Do something to celebrate it 🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
A week on Vegan food!!!! he said it.
For 8 minutes I become undepressed thanks to magic moaning Mike 😂!
Yay you got to 100k subscribers, much deserved👏!!
yes it time for A week on Vegan food!!!!
Andrew Whitney Definitely, he said he would!!
"The smaller end goes crunch, crunch, crunch, the bigger end goes crack, crack, crack..." - There is a song in that!
Will it peel a Mini Babybel?
"its got a crack on its bottom"
Same, bro. Same.
"Where is my most intact egg?" Yeah Mike, where is it? I can't breathe XD
You failed at using it...LOL Over cracking the bottom, do like the TV and hit the small end then a tap on the bottom and put it in. Really simple and works every time.
Congratulations on 100k! Best wishes for the future(:
A week on Basil looking at your judgmentally..
Congratulations on the subscriber milestone! :D I enjoyed you riffing on the infomercial at the start. A pity this thing didn't quite work. Peeling a couple eggs for breakfast is nothing, but you start wishing for a fun way when you've made a dozen for deviling. XD
Congrats on 100,000 subs!!!!
Mike: you didn't leave the eggs in ice water for 10 minutes, like the instructions said...
Mike likes to skip steps and then complain when it doesn't work.
Did you put it in ice after you boiled it like it said on the box???
How hard is it to peel the shell? I do it within seconds without any devices.
A week on eggs!!!
Funny, thinking the same thing.
I'd feel sorry for his wife, just think how bad his burps and gas will smell and more so in bed, I can for see her making him sleep on the sofa, lol

*Edit* Nevermind.
Did you ice them after boiling?
Massive congratulations on reaching 100k mike :)
How eggciting!, you've reached 100k subs, grats!.
"Looks like it was pooped out." You don't quite know where eggs come from, do you, Mike? :)
“Egg Hero”
I think it is supposed to be a “Hero Sandwich” with eggs?
Either way, funny joke
they also have no idea what egg salad is either.
Thomas Jenkins ...or scrambled eggs, they think it's smashed hardboiled eggs!
this channel needs more views
"Looks like it's bee pooped out"
Yes, that's usually how they exit the chicken.
Congrats on 100,000 subs btw! RUclips probably won't send you the sipver button but at least you have eggs.
If you don't mind the taste of vinegar.
You can just melt the egg shell with White vinegar since it will eat the carbonate that is a shell.
Takes a day tho, and again hope you don't mind a vinegar taste.

More "Pleh!" Less "Heh!" I'm going to use this in work next time I have to peel eggs.
did you do the 10 mins in iced water which stops the shell sticking to the eggs?
Sometimes I wonder why they put overly detailed instructions on simply devices...then I remember that there are people like Mike out there. Bhahaha
:)
Love you man!
As soon as that egg shot out of it, I laughed for a good 3 minutes.
"You have to eat all the eggs"
"...why are you doing this...?"
Now we know how that one guy prepared all those eggs
Congrats on 100k subscribers.
Pretty sure eggs in the US have much thinner shells than UK/EU ones due to them being heavily treated with chemicals and disinfectants that strips away outer layers (hence why the eggs you see in the US are nearly always pure white) it's also why eggs in the us are sold refrigerated, the taking away of those layers means they go off really fast.
Congrats on 100k subs!
Looks like the thing at back of the tumble dryer ahahahahah aha tumble dry eggs
I sure could go for a "delicious snag" of boiled eggs right about now.
Finally, a product that helps me make *EGGS FOR BART*
Mike, your eggs always look so delicious in your videos. How long do you boil them? And are they started from room temperature?
did you try this once off camera not cracking the bottom at all, just tapping it a few times without cracks to see the outcome....?
I can't be the only one who thinks this would work better if the pump portion was smaller. It seems too large to really do the job properly.
I noticed there was a hole in the bellow facing the camera. Not sure if that would make a difference but I imagine it's not forming a tight enough seal to push the egg out of its shell
There's nothing more delicious than a lovely egg snag.
1. So I realize that many of these gadgets are supposed to help people with disabilities, but given how slidy this thing is and how much pressure is required to make it semi-function, I have to think it might actually cause more disabilities...
2. Congrats on 100K subs, Mike!
3. Put your wi-no, no, I can't say it.
Are the eggs inserted the wrong side up by any chance?
I like how they do more to sell the idea of eating eggs more than the product.
"DID YOU KNOW that you can make EGG SALAD with EGGS?!" (Zoom in on a child saying "wow")
I'm thinking the issue here with this thing, is that it's made with American eggs in mind. European/British eggs actually tend to have a thicker shell than American ones, among other things.
Woah. I'm gonna see if I can get some of those Egg Heros.
Congrats on 100k subs!
Hold up. Egg Triffle??
You got it to work better than I did. I only used the one I was given twice.
I can't wait for the episode of Super Friends where Gleek eats the Egg Hero.
I think the "air cell" is in the wide end of the egg, the instructions have it the wrong way around. Maybe pierce the wide end and crack the pointy end and put the wide end upwards?
Hey Mike they say about the air pocket on the advert. So arent you supposed to put the fat end up? My eggs mostly got air pockets over there. So maybe You could try to make a hole in the fat end and break the tip?
Grats on 100k Subs!
imagine if this advert was remade in England with Edwina Currie showcasing this product
Granted the 'THE NEGG BOILED EGG PEELER' works a lot better
This will only work with U.S eggs because of the way they treat them before shipping.
They annihilate the shell by bleaching it for some kind of quasi-cleaning reason thus making the shell super brittle.
This is the reason why you can keep British and EU eggs out of the fridge for weeks (the way eggs should be kept for culinary reasons) while U.S eggs HAVE to be refrigerated.
Week on eggs would be awesome! Like dump cakes or dump dinners. Not only eggs all day, but one meal a day is eggs.
the Shape of Water needed this a product placement
actually I'm surprised you dont have the hole on the bottom that seems the only way to have it flower open
It does change the flavor. From mildly enjoyable if not bland to the prestigious flavor of sadness as you realize what you bought.
Hey Mike, just found you again! Forgot how cool you were. Your vid is eggscellent!
