Exactely what I thought! Thanks for taking the words out of my mouth. I'm imagining a poor fool dieing of dehydration, after trying to collect grass at 105 degrees for 4 hours, after cutting a 2x2 cm hole into his tire to stuff it with grass later......
XD Sometimes the Bright Side needs to be more logical. What are you gonna stuff in your tire in the desert? Sand? And what about an arctic tundra? Snow?
@@oneangrychild Sorry for the first reply... My new year resolution is to be nicer, so here's my second try: I didn't see your comment before posting. I don't always read comments first, just depends on timing. Nice to know I wasn't the only person who immediately noticed the incongruity. 😊
It may take a while to fill the tire up with grass depending on how much air it has lost? I'm pretty sure if you put a hole big enough to stuff grass in it then all of the air is lost.
Depending on how much air the tire has lost? Well if you're cutting holes in the sidewall to stuff it with grass all the air is gone. Good luck with this one!
For the elevator tip- (I’m an elevator mechanic) most newer elevators have what’s called an “anti nuisance” call feature that will release more than 3-4 calls if you press all the buttons at once. There’s a couple of other options: An emergency phone button is located towards the bottom on the button panel that you can press for help while in the elevator. This line usually connects directly to building security. On older units there may be a small door at the bottom of the panel with a phone inside. There’s also an emergency alarm button that will ring a pretty loud bell or alarm signal. Look for these things next time you ride an elevator 😉
cool, I'll definitely be looking for that next time I'm in one, is there an access hatch on the top of all elevators or is that something that's only in the movies?
I got trapped in my apartment very old & very small warm elevator, I didn't have my cell on me; so I had to hold the EMERGENCY BUTTON for someone to come & they called 911; but I was stuck in it for 45-minutes. Now I do not ride in it. When I do shopping, I put a cart in the elevator & send it up to my floor I live on & run up the stairs. I now get extra exercise daily; but have a new phobia. Make sure to have a cell on you when riding an elevator & be calm when an emergency happens in one.
I reckon I can build that. There is a hatch on the top of every elevator, but it is always locked tight from outside, so you can forget about using the hatch. However, all elevator doors are not locked. The inner doors can be forced opened with hands. The outdoor doors have a visible lever which can be easily pulled to open from inside. However, this is very dangerous to use because if when you are climbing out suddenly the elevator move, you are dead. Your best option is still to call for help and wait. Only In the most emergency situation when your life in threatened inside the elevator, you can use this as the last method to escape.
If you are a kid and a possible child predator is chassing you, run to the nearest house’s door while screaming mom. The predator will most likely leave. Same situation but you can also run to a pedestrian saying things like « mom this man is following me » or « dad that personé is following me. If she or he is a parent, they will most likely reconise what you are doing and go à long with it. The child predator will most likely leave. Be safe!
from a flight attendant. KEEP your shoes on during takeoff and landing. If you have to escape you don't want to run through broken glass or fire without your shoes.
@@atomicfriendo oh like those things in cartoons? where they get a plane crash but they take off their pants and just put it in the air as a subitute to a pharacute
The cough, snot, splutter approach with potential attackers also works because people have a fear of germs. Personally, I favour the odd response to direct threats. Growling is a good one when someone is picking a fight, as is "The doctors gave me a letter, I'm allowed out!". Singing Tiptoe Through the Tulips. Remember, attackers expect things to go according to their script. Tip their psychological balance away from that and you have regained some control. Then do something equally odd, but from a completely different angle.
Yup. When i was a teenager and sneaking out at night (built like a woman! Tho) i would dress in a marilyn manson hat, a trench coat and a fkn lil mermaid lunch box while riding a bmx bike (small for my height lol) The stranger, the safer. 100% facts!
I tend to carry a stick thats about 12 inches long and an inch thick, anywhere i go if i don't have a knife. So, with that in mind: -someone tries to attack me -i pull out the stick, and with a playful voice "hey boy, ya want the stick? huh? you want it?" -he starts looking at me confused "well, HERE YA GO!!!" -I start beating him with the stick as he runs away
@Cheryl I highly doubt that, as he attacked me first, with intent to cause harm should I not comply. I merely turned the tables on him, and he got scared because things didn't go according to plan. It should ALSO be noted that I am of a petite stature (140lbs or less at average height), and by no means able to defend myself unarmed from someone of average strength. This means that I would be forced to use a weapon to defend my own well being, against someone who would readily commit a violent crime against me. Just to put things a bit more into perspective: I can BARELY lift my 80lb motorized bicycle, let alone lifting it over my shoulders. I do hope THAT gives you enough information to classify me as a weakling, and understand that I am willing to do whatever it takes to prevent harm to myself or my property. I also take it you would be the one to simply comply, call the police afterwards, and still have to replace your ID, SSN, credit cards, cash, and whatever else you had in your purse, like a "good little citizen."

As a truck driver, to get rid of tunnel vision, keep your eyes moving by checking all mirrors and on each side of road. You can also pull over to a rest area for 10 minutes and get out of vehicle to stretch your legs. Tunnel vision just means your eyes are tired. Get out and get so fresh air. You’re welcome! 😘🚚🔥
Your first point about dropping items and resisting being taken somewhere unless they have a gun. Always always make that point your last stand. Nothing good comes from being taken to a second location.
I crossed the road last night using my phone as a torch. the light blinded the driver and he crashed into a tree and died in the impact. Great tip, certainly saved me.
Hi If you're reading this... I have some sweet words to cheer you up: Remember you're goodlooking 😍Awesome 😎Talented 👏Strong💪 and there is no 👎 reading to feel inferior than someone else, Please Never stop Smiling😃 From a boy who has a dream of becoming a big RU-vid guitarist one day 💭
Hey! Cool! Hope that works out for you, but above all that you remember to have fun with it.. Remember that even if someone is *not* good looking, or talented or whatever anyone can make a real difference to someone somewhere. Don't waste your time on haters..
I was directed to a metro tunnel along with a friend. One of them was pointing him with a gun. I faked a seizure right in front of the entrance, they ran away. Definitely saved our lives.
A good tip for when you're crying (it helps me) is to talk to yourself. Talk to yourself. Say things like "It's gonna be okay" or "We can get through this" or anything else. Talking to yourself helps calm you down. A gentle voice is always something good to hear. Now I'm sure this tip won't help everyone, and it takes a moment for it to work, (Cause when you start crying it's almost impossible to stop in 2 seconds) but it works for me so I'm sure it'll work for *some* other people. I hope this helps you at some point in your life!!
Coming from a firefighter, just keep a small ABC fire extinguisher in your home for grease fires. Baking soda or flour works too but you do need a lot of it, but it’s less messy than an extinguisher. If the fire was contained to the pan you don’t need to call 911. Obviously if you’re hurt or it spread to the walls, floors, etc. and you need to use your insurance, then call.
Growing up here in Scotland, we used to have TV adverts that told people what to do in the event of an oil fire in a pan. Cover it with a lid or damp towel. It makes sense as you just need to starve it of oxygen
Um...Why give advice that involves using something up under a comment that suggest doing something not only safer, but also that does not waste anything?! Fire cannot burn without oxygen, so covering it with ANYTHING that won't burn will extinguish it. In fact, that's how snow fire extinguishers...or sand (like rolling on the sand if you're on fire) work too. That's how baking soda/flour is meant to work too. Just throw ANYTHING that won't burn and fire goes out...but if you're in a kitchen, you're going to have a perfectly inflammable lid...so...um...use it?! Also, there's a ridiculous claim in the video. Water repels oil and that's why you doing use water to extinguish burning oil?! Yeah, and you can cut magnet in half and have an all-south and all-north halves...Aka. no, you'll get two magnets with south and north each and water does not repel oil. Water does not mix with oil which is also less dense than it so it floats. However burning oil achieves very high temperatures. So high that small amounts of water will instantly turn to gas. Liquid instantly turning to gas causes an explosion, and the last thing you want to do is cause explosions inside a burning liquid that will throw it all around the kitchen...and on you. Sure. If you spill several hundredths liters of water at once you're going to extinguish the oil most likely (no oxygen, remember?!), but why flood your kitchen with a ton of water if you can just cover it with a lid?!
*Oh yeah because if you're being stalked by a criminal and they catch onto what you're doing, they'll totally get confused by you pressing elevator buttons. How about some **_real_** advice?*
i would go for making sure you know a couple of your neighbors at least well enough that your allowed in and choose the one that looks like none wants to mess with them
He said stuff a flat tyre with grass, it might take more grass depending on how much air you've lost, but he said that after you've cut holes in your tyres 😂😂
You know how I deal with a stressful situation instead of saying “calm down”. I simply accept that’s it’s happening and I move on with whatever I think I should do. I can’t help others however because it will make me sound heartless if I tell them to just accept it an move on.
Most air accidents happen during takeoff and at landing. Being alert and attentive at these times means you'll be more likely to know to be ready if you suddenly need to evacuate or assume a brace position like in the event of an overrun. Plus it's good to play attention to the safety demonstration at take off.
With sunny, blue skies, once had a cat who used to hide behind the toilet an hour before a thunderstorm rolled in. So my tip...get a cat. Though you may have to get several to find one who will give you advance warning. Have 2 cats now...one doesn't care...dinner is more important. The other hides after it begins.
Whatever you do, don’t tell yourself to stop panicking. I’m sure that’s your first thought when there’s a shark. Honestly, the “panic” is the fight or flight mode. The fight mode (panic) actually helps us in a dangerous situation.
Why don't just get a ''FIX A FLAT'' spray for around $5.00 dollars and spend less than ten minutes applying it to the tire, and if the hole it's not too big you don't have to throw the tire away
because most tire shops wont fix the tire if you use that stuff in it, cause its a huge mess to clean up, and they will throw the tire away anyway, so save some money and use grass
@@kevinalt8437 except cutting the hole for the grass creates even MORE of a hole, and in the sidewall no less. This severely compromises the tire and you can't keep it anyways. Better to just use the easier Fix-A-Flat method and buy the new tire. OR, call for roadside assistance and get towed to the nearest tire shop where they can find the hole and plug it.
When you’re panicking, say to yourself “I am peaceful and calm and relaxed... I am peaceful and calm....” say this over and over. It will help you calm down.
A life hack that can save your life. If a hurricane, storm is where your at and electricity isn’t available for you to track the latest weather news. Try to count in seconds starting when you hear a flash of lighting or white light. Then, STOP if you hear any thunder booms. Lastly, repeat one more time. If the 2nd attempt to count in between the flash of lightning and thunder is more longer than the first. The storm is moving away from you. If the 2nd attempt is shorter than the first, the storm is coming at your direction. How this is possible-> Speed of light is faster than speed of sound so obviously you’ll see the flash of light before the sound. Counting between these several times help you mark how close or which direction the storm is heading(whether it’s heading towards you or way from you). This method helps you coordinate where the storm is going; for better reliable evidence. Try to do this several times so you have more knowledge of the storm.
And also look at how the animals are behaving, like most birds will fly away from the way the storm is at and if you have a dog or cat they usually get restless and so on
Not everyone might have baking soda in the house as some people do not bake often or not at all. So in case it is not available, salt can help put out the fire, it takes much longer to do so, but at least that is another option in case there is no baking soda.
I don't know if i am the first to say this, but why are you so often putting the same picture besides each other and say that one is wrong but the other right? Clickbait?
When walking and talking with the cell phone keep your head up. Regardless when you’re walking by yourself or in a crowd keep your head up regardless be aware of what’s going on around you at all times.
Using a cell phone as a signal light works - there was a man on my dark early morning bus route who had to wait at a dark corner without a street light; he would hold up his lit up cell phone facing the bus for the bus driver to see him and stop.
All of the buttons on the right side are lit up, but only the button being pressed is lit up on the left side. If someone can't see that, they probably have color blindness. Or they have a bad screen on their device.
2:25 tried it. (Storm coming) me: oh well I know theres a storm soon! me: (waits 24 hours) *3 days later* me: Not even any rain D:< 5:49 *or turn on flashlight mode*
Now i'm even more scared after watching the tip about planes since i'm always super nervous during takeoff and landing. Proof my paranoia has a basis. I'm always trying to sleep during takeoff but cannot.
I successfully duct taped my flat tire to get it to the service station. You can also COVER a stove fire with anything METALLIC to help extinguish the fire. If its an OVEN fire simply KEEP the OVEN DOOR CLOSED & TURN OFF the OVEN. I will sometimes turn on my phones FLASHLIGHT & use the FLASHING setting when crossing or walking in the dark. STAY SAFE EVERYBODY. 💙🇱🇷🌏
I know how to get off thin ice. You slowly, VERY slowly get down and lie on your stomach. Spreading your weight as evenly as possible. Then you slowly pull yourself towards strong ground. Slowly, VERY slowly.
Not really, since bleach, at full strength, would dissolve your esophagus and stomach if you ingested it. Letting water, treated with bleach, air out for a few minutes will allow the bleach to evaporate more into the air and will preserve a fresher tasting water. Also, keep all plastic bottles of filtered water out of the sunlight, as the bottles tend to leak toxic plastic chemicals into the water over time, and you can both smell and taste them.
Narrator: Don't use a candle during a blackout Me: Wasn't the guy in the animation just using a candle like 2 minutes ago???? Also me: First of all, who even wants to put bleach in there water and DIE?!?!? I wouldn't give that tip to anyone, especially my mom who doesn't measure anything and is impatient.
If you wake up with a headache and the headache goes away after you leave your house for work or school, suspect low level carbon monoxide poisoning. Check the toe of your gas water heater - if the little plastic blue and red disks (installed where the cold and hot water pipes connect to the tank) if these show signs of melting - the exhaust is not exiting properly!
Stuff a tire with grass? I don't think so. Some people can barely operate a jack nevermind cut through a radial with a random tool and stuff it with grass.
Dear Bright Side believe or not but you have taken my idea from the last video's comments. But you don't thanked and even you didn't liked the comment , any other youtuber have never done like this with their audiences , it means that you have ego . I was your fan but not now . You must respect to everyone.
To check if someone is following look in a shop window for who is behind you. If you're a woman walking at night tuck long hair inside your coat. You'll be less noticeable and it's less easy to grab. If you need to open a can of food with no can opener rub the top of the can on concrete till the rim wears away. The top will come off in less than two minutes. If you're in water use a wet piece of clothing to trap air and use it as a float.
They show the truck in the wide-open DESERT then tell you to stuff it with grass?! I grew up in and still live in the Mojave...sure there are some areas with grass, but not many. No grass? Lower the other tires' pressure a little bit and drive slowly until you hit a paved road, then flag down help.
Showing my son and method is called triple five the first five is :05 Seconds To Look 360° Degrees to make sure you're safe. A second five is five feet in front of you so you see everything in front of you so you're not going to stumble. The third five is to see 5 blocks ahead of you while driving riding a bike or just walking.
