After you started crawling, I was just thinking "Imagine taking a walk and you see a man on all fours listening intently to the ground" and then it happened lmao
Hola, teníamos un vecino que se le atasco el desagüe, y se tiro al suelo a escuchar si oía algo del desagüe, mi marido que lo vio por poco no le da un infarto, creyó que estaba muerto. Después lo contaban y se reían pero el susto no se lo quito nadie. Saludos desde la otra punta del mundo 🌍
Earlier today I found a channel dedicated to cobbling shoes and binged watch it, now I’m here at a channel dedicated to drains and enjoying it. What a wild day.
If I were to live in Australia, I'd never not be amazed by the call of the kookaburra. It has either learned his cheery laugh from this man or the other way around
I can’t help but feel like you’ve had somewhat of a “day off” when you hit some drain lines that are only full of roots and NOT sewage. Good for you, Ollie.
I always think the same thing, lol!! I feel like he gets more sewage jobs than storm drains, esp during the dry season. People probably don't call him till it's monsoon season, and the water is starting to come into their houses.
Hey ! I'm a 54 yo french man and i do not know why but the fact everything is clean thanks to you, brings me brain peace, so funny ! It washes my brain....
That rigid machine thing sounded crazy. Like an alien device. And it looked so funny too I love it. Would love to walk around using it just to see people act confused as to what it did
You have preformed excelent on the job, infront of bystanders, and with countles additional aquiducts, variants, and unforseen circumstances, you demonstrate bravery, steadfastedness, and emergency relief efforts under stress. I want a tee shirt.
Wow, my house in the USA does have to front and back storm drains that pump into the street or sprinklers (the back yard ones can actually turn off) my neighbors also had em so we must've just been on a good street heh but out in Germany (I'm here for work purposes) there aren't a lot of houses with drains or even water catchers for the roof.
That's more of an issue with your yard than America in general. Most landscapers and planners take water into account when designing yards and such. So most yards just drain into the street where there are storm drains, or they do have drains in the yard. Sounds to me like your yard is either poorly built, or poorly managed.
That depends on the area I think, like how if it snows an inch in the south the lose their minds and it really takes about a foot or more to bother the systems up north. Age of the area matters as well as they used to do things differently based on what era the area was built in. Chicago drainage for example is a nightmare as it is old and built over a swamp and has a ton of abandoned underground stuff.
Watching you work is why I know I made the right choice to become an electrician. You work very hard and are good at what you do. Merry Christmas from Baja Sur, Mexico.
At 32:25 in we see the real blockage causing most of the problems. Literally the catch of the day. The new river of water is running down all the way to the main curb side drain now. An all good and great start to summer down under Ollie and also have a Merry Christmas too.
@@catsbyondrepair LOL! No, I think the drain gang is just on strike, lmao! But really, moving all those plastic toys gets a bit much after a while. He's been moving around those toys, talking to them, editing them into shots for about 4 or 5 years now, and I think Ollie is just taking a break from them. He is busy as shit lately, his phone never stops ringing. Think about it, Sydney has more people than the Isle of Manhattan(6 million people) and he is the best drain guy in town. He charges a flat fee, so no matter how long the job is, it's the same charge. We are lucky he is still filming. Hopefully his channel is monetized and people aren't all using ad blockers. I have YT premium, so I don't know if he has ads or not. I'm hoping he is making a few hundred AUS each week on his videos. He has 733 videos, with a total of about 258 million total views. According to statistical data, he should be pulling in about $3k a week from YT, but those figures are often very wrong. He would be better getting sponsors like the Jetter company that sets up hs rig. That thing couldn't be cheap, with the remote and all that. I have an idea for a better jet head, but I don't have a machine shop to make it.
when I see the way you work,, it feels so easy, like there is no big problem, when I have started this business,, it is not as easy as watching your videos,, don't stop making videos because I still have a lot to learn from your videos😀😃
RIP Drain Gang. You will be missed. 😢vids are much better seeing you guys but not knowing how you perished is heartbreaking leaving us with closure issues. You’ll pardon me while I take a break to go into my safe space.
Ollie! Excellent work. Those roots were gigantic! I am very glad that you were able to eliminate them and leave the pipe in optimal condition. I want to wish you a happy holiday to you and your whole family. I hope you spend that day with lots of love and peace. God bless you for such a good year of videos that you have given us!
Watched a few lawn mowing videos in my time probably why I got recommended this. Was pretty enjoying to watch. Appreciated the bonus clip of showing it flow down to the sewer grate
Its not just having a good equipment you can a job, a dedicated person and love to what you're doing is another thing..keep up the work buddy.keep safe
WOW! Ollie you did a fantastic job & determined that nothing was gonna stand in your way! Whether it be busted pipe, rocks or root balls! I hope you & your family have a very Merry Christmas!
Yay, the algorithm has finally brought me back to your videos🥰. I had Google play for my music but it got switched to RU-vid music and it gave me RU-vid premium and a whole new account. I was subscribed to you on my old account and I've been slowly building my new account.
Wish you and the entire family a Merry Christmas, hope you give yourself a few days off to be with the ones you enjoy being around. Greetings from Denmark.
@@aranchi20 🤔 but if that were the case then Christians would be declaring war against sinners which we all are. So it would have to be absolutely perfect Christian’s, which don’t exist, against non Christian’s (sinners). The message is basically saying if you don’t have Jesus in your life than you have no true peace. But if you Know Jesus from your heart and live for Him than you will have perfect peace that moves in ever aspect of your life ❤️✝️
That was really interesting. Thanks for sharing. Recently had our drains blocked..turned out it was roots and a broken pipe on a neighbouring property. Was cool seeing how you find the problem.
Hi from uk Olli and no mascots 👋👍🤣 I hope the mascots are OK BTW but yeah the new chin strap working out well as I noticed not once Olli did you have to retrieve your hat lol awesome specie's today and thank you for another great fun filled year of blocked drains break downs new equipment and big red educational button 🤣 from me and uk all best and have a lovely Christmas to you, your family and to all who read! Thanks as always for your time be safe and see you soon 👍 👋
Olly, I wish you a couple of nice and peaceful days during christmas, hopefully you'll be able to take some days off without emergency jobs or another of Frank's trainwrecks! Thank you for another year of great content and entertainment! (p.s. I miss ratty but having 10023 animal helpers on the worksite was way too much. I enjoy the new format, keep up the good work!)
I wish our plumber's were as effective as you & your equipment , i love watching what you do & the advice you give about Wet Wipe's in the Sewage System's and how they help BLOCK it up ... Any way Ollie I will keep watching your Video's as they are informative ... I would also like to take this opertunity to wish you & your Family A Very Merry Christmas & A Safe New Year for 2022 - 23 .... Cheer's Cobber ...
Ollie did say that the league of the extordinary ratty and friends is a great thing, but nothing last forever buddy, im sure we will see a few cameos but the show must go on! Cheers!😏👍🏻
Hi Ollie, Ron from Royal Berkshire in UK here.I have subscribed to your channel, your can do attitude is fantastic, just a shame that smellyvision has not been invented yet so you will have to keep thee smells to yourself. Happy 2023.
Hey man. I’m really into this so thank you for making it. I know it’s a big ask but could you put stripes on your hose every 5m or so? It’s hard to tell how you’re pushing and pulling (and how far you’re going) with the plain gray hose. Thanks!
Oh man, that is going to be a pricey fix. Here in America..we had bought a house and the people that laid the foundation broken the pipe that leads out to the public sewer system, they then filled concrete on top of it, as it was the pipe that was in the driveway. Not only were the people that came out to tell us this was the problem and found it i.e. roto-rooter was the company ($$$$) but the company (private company) that came out to fix it was even more pricier! i mean hell, they had to break thru cement and i don't know how many feet of dirt after that. i feel so bad for that company because we could never pay them back all the money that was owed. long drawn out story. btw, i'm new, thanks for the video, this was a neat one to watch! (we no longer own that house, had to sell it, and was almost foreclosed on)
