I snapped a tape measure 10,000 times. Here's what happened. #shorts

The things you do for us LOL
Liked for the dedication
That’s gotta be the most durable tape I’ve ever seen.
It’ll ruin your fingers a lot faster than it ruins itself if you’re holding onto it when you do.
I snapped one and it broke once when i was a kid, my dad was pissed, but he was the one who snapped it the other 9999 times
Its so unfair when youve never used something and you touch it once and it breaks and then you get blamed like you somehow hulk smashed it or something or dis something wrong like come one dude how weak is the product if it cant handle a kid using it once probably more gentle than you? If it breas like that its onviously from long term or in this case high usage wear not because youre the straw that broke the camels back.
I swear im so unlucky like that its like i have the midas touch but instead of gold it shits itself. The people around me call it the stone age touch the caveman hands the amish touch zeus hands as in i smite it with static electricity which for some reason no matter what i do im constantly zapping everything. Like nothing of mines every broken i have laptops vhs tapes like 25 year old game consoles etc that all work basically as good as new and uet i can touch some fancy new printer or touchless ordering screen and they just die. 😂
Super endurance super persistent WOW!!!
Amazing. You know, with those tools you could have built a pulley with a string that pulls then let’s go at a low RPM to save your hands and time. But it was throughly entertaining as is!
That’d be the Myth busters way.
I just have to leave a comment on this one too because I appreciate the effort on this one.
Interesting video. Have you ever thought about an instructional video on building a chicken coop? I bet a lot of people would enjoy watching you make one. You have some of the greatest videos…thanks Mr Ramsey
How is the government not funding this level of research?
I think it’s not about failure, but stretching the end to throw off measurements over time. Did you measure any variance in the accuracy over time?
He did (there’s a longer video about this). No change to the measurements.
Wow. Lots of work.
I heard if you snap it more than twice you go blind!
And welcome to the latest euphemism for self-gratification.
“What’re you doing in there this whole time? Snapping your tape measure or what?!”
Seriously though, how else do you close one? I don’t have time to baby it.
I appreciate the duct tape protection. I imagine the blisters on your index and thumb would have been killer otherwise!
That duct tape glove 😂.
Thanks for doing this amazing investigative journalism
Out here doing the practical science.
Steve was quietly heard shouting, “I got blisters on my fingers!”
You didn’t happen to measure the play in the hook? I thought the whole don’t snap thing was that doing so will mess up the play and give bad measurements.
