Life hacks are shortcuts designed to
make your life easier.

This show is meant to help you, not hurt
you. So hack at your own risk.

Stubborn water stains on your wood
countertop got you down?

Try Ashnaze.

Ashnaze combines the creamy, water
-absorbing power of mayonnaise with the

-busting might of cigarette ash for a
cleaning solution that can't be beat.

Thanks, Ashnaze. Now can you make
Grandma disappear?

Tonight on Hack My Life, we're going to
hack your pool party, barbecue, and

toilet seat.

Show you three foolproof ways to hack
open a wine bottle.

What is that?

And make an AC out of junk.

Like a polar bear breaking wind right in
my nose. All leading up to the hack of

the week.

That's it.

Hack My Life.

While hair of the dog might be great for
getting rid of a hangover.

It's not so great for keeping your
couches clean. Luckily, we found some

for getting rid of pet hair that involve
using a squeegee and a flip -flop. And

we're going to test them out.

All we need now is just a bunch of dog
hair.

Yeah.

And we're all set for this hack -verse
-hack.

We've divided the living room into two
sections.

Brooke has opted for the squeegee. I
have Jersey Shore's finest footwear. The

flip -flop, we, of course, turn this
into a competition.

So we're going to put 30 seconds on the
clock, and in that time frame, see who

can gather the biggest furball.

Spoiler, I will win.

May the best hack win.

Three, two, go.

Oh. All right.

And it worked.

Who even posted that a flip -flop is
remotely useful? This is terrible.

Time is up. We're going to weigh them to
make my loss official.

Here we go. A little meatball.

It's two grams. It's two grams.

Let's see what we have here.

Not close at all. Not close. You tripled
the size of my furball.

Yeah. Did I lose?

Yes. But I learned something. I learned
that a squeegee is really effective when

it comes to picking up pet hair, so I'm
excited to go home and try it out on my

couch. You have a dog?

I do not.

I do not.

When it comes to starting a fire without
any charcoal, potato chips, nacho

chips, and marshmallows all have packed
potential. To see how these fire

starters stack up, we invited three
amateur chefs for a pack -off challenge.

Jonathan. Kevin. You got the pick of the
litter here? Okay, this is an easy

call. I'm going to go with marshmallows.

Now, why is that? The sugar in the
marshmallows I find to be highly

Here's your weapon, sir. Thank you, sir.
Thank you. Good luck. Don't forget to

grab your tools. I shall. Thank you. All
right. All right, Chris, come on up.

My good sir, you've got two choices
here. We've got nacho chips and potato

chips. Potato chips it is. All day? All
day. Why is that?

Well, you know, it's starch -based, so I
figure starch is close to wood, and

it'll be easy to light.

Is starch close to wood? On the periodic
table, are they right next to each

other? It's like helium, neon, starch,
wood.

Yeah, W -O -S -A.

Total sense. Yeah, S -C. Yeah, whatever.

It works. Good luck with that, man.
Thanks.

Greg, come on over. That means it's not
much of a choice.

You get the leftovers, these nacho
chips.

I feel like this is something that looks
like it's ready to burn right now.

It is the natural color of flame. A
phoenix may rise out of that at any

It's been pre -prepared to burn. Good
luck, man.

Yeah, thanks.

All right, they have their ingredients.

Let's test these grill hacks!

Whenever you want to get the fire going,
you just go ahead and light these

marshmallows. We'll warn everybody to
stand back. That's very funny, Kevin.

What's happening is they're lighting
very quickly and then burning as quickly

they light.

You want to try to light one and then
we'll throw it in there? Sure, let's do

it. Here, go ahead.

Perfect,

thank you.

Chris, how's it looking?

Well, much better than that guy.

How long did this take you? Oh, this is
about four or five seconds. Really?

Yeah. So a typical grill for a burger,
you want to run it at 375 to 450?

This is superior fire.

That's right in there, man. That's 453.
That's perfect.

Thank you. And just make sure, Jonathan,
it says N .A.

You know what I mean? It's weird.
Nothing.

What's going on, Greg?

I'm feeling a lot of heat, and these
things have barely even started.

I'm actually a little nervous.

I feel like we might...

End up with quite a fire on our hands.
Oh, okay, yeah, it is.

We have purple chips and orange chips
and pink smoke.

I can't get in to get a read. Oh, my
goodness.

All right, bring out the asbestos suit.

For real. We're getting errors.

It can't even read. It's so hot, it
can't read it. Yeah. Wow.

Well, there you have it. When it comes
to fire starters, if you're not looking

to serve beef tartare or a grilled
hockey puck, potato chips are your best

But why?

Breaking down the hack.

Marshmallows stink at burning because
the gelatin that makes them gooey also

makes them nearly impossible to ignite
with a traditional lighter.

Turns out, Chris wasn't that far off
when it comes to why potato chips burn

well.

Potatoes and wood are both made from
similar complex sugars.

And nacho chips burn way too hot because
they're covered in cheese dust, which

is made of hydrocarbons, which is a
compound found in fuel.

Ah, something to think about the next
time you're licking it off your finger.

Sometimes an item is so useful, it
ascends into the pantheon of great

tools. Today we celebrate one of those
simple household items that truly has

become a hack all -star, the pool
noodle.

More than just a water toy, the pool
noodle is the basis for dozens of useful

hacks. Cut a pool noodle in half and
glue it to your garage wall.

The hack will protect your car door from
dings.

All -star.

A pool noodle can also keep a door from
shutting on little fingers.

All Star.

Just remove about an inch from the side
and slide it over the door.

Cut a pool noodle to the length of a
mattress and place it under the sheet

the edge. This hack will keep a child
from rolling onto the floor.

All Star.

For wrinkle -free boot storage, cut a
length of a pool noodle the height of

boot and slide it inside.

Finally, slice the noodle into quarters,
fasten them to the sides of a plastic

bin with waterproof nylon twine, and
fill it with beverages.

All -star.

Now you don't even have to get out of
the pool to grab a beer.

Here's to you, pool noodle, the newest
member of the All -Star Club.

Coming up, let's see who can figure out
how to hack open this bottle of wine.

What's this room for?

And we reveal a hack for bee stings
using something you'd never expect.

Plus, if you're throwing a party, you've
got to stay tuned for a great time

-saving hack.

Some people insist on taking what should
be a fun trek into nature and pushing

it to the extreme. To protect yourself,
you need a hack line of defense against

the rugged outdoorsmen.

This is the Rugged Outdoorsman.

Take into a 12 -hour hike through
Underbrush and never get a blister.

And here's you, someone who likes to
take a leisurely walk in the woods.

To keep up, try lining your shoes with
fern leaves.

This hack will provide extra cushioning
for your sore feet.

The Rugged Outdoorsman is the kind of
guy whose idea of a treat is snatching

honey right from a hive.

But since you're not immune to bee
things... Rub toothpaste on those wells.

The hack neutralizes the acid in bee
venom, making the pain go away.

The rugged outdoorsman enjoys the
challenge of catching dinner with his

hands.

If you want to catch dinner, turn a soda
can tab into a fish hook. Just pinch

the top of the tab on one side and pull
it until it separates from the bottom.

Then tie a piece of twine to the tab and
cast off.

The rugged outdoorsman never bothers
with toilet paper in the wild.

If he insists you don't use any either,
try placing fresh green leaves between

two dead brown ones.

This hack will protect you from poison
ivy and bugs.

Finally, it's not quite an all -star,
but here's one more use for the pool

noodle.

Cut a slit down the side and line a
bucket to make squatting in the wild

more luxurious.

So don't let that rugged outdoorsman get
you down.

Because you have a hack line to defend.

There are several hacks for opening a
wine bottle without a corkscrew.

We set up hidden cameras and offered
wine lovers a free bottle.

if they can get to the bottom of its
undercover hat.

Oh, here we go.

Enjoy. I think my co -worker took all
the wine tea.

All right,

let's see what this first couple does
with a hammer and a screw.

Have you done this before?

No, I'm kidding. Have you done this
before, she says, while fighting a

towards him.

This is the most fun they've ever had
together.

Should we try this?

Yeah, I can do it again.

Oh, I'm so nervous. Okay, should I jump
in?

Oh my gosh.

You know what, you guys are actually
very close.

First. You've got to start by hammering
your screw into the cork about three

-quarters of the way.

Flip the hammer around and use it like a
fulcrum.

Then, pop the cork on out.

Nah, sorry.

You didn't figure out the hack. Looks
like you'll be paying for that wine.

I've used this before in a pinch. It's
just a regular screwdriver and a

shoelace.

Wine bottle hack two, the screwdriver
and shoelace.

Well, I don't know how to do this
without...

Oh, conflict.

All is not right.

Man,

they

are struggling.

But this is a tough one.

All right, here's what you do.

Take a shoelace and knot it at one end.
Then use the screwdriver to push the

knotted lace all the way through the
center of the cork.

Finally, use the other end of the lace
to pull the knot back out, and that

should bring the cork with it.

Sadly, this couple just couldn't get it
to work.

But in the true spirit of hacking, he
still got his wine.

Along with an eyeful of chardonnay.

Congrats to you! A free bottle of wine.

Kenan, here you go.

What is that?

It's a bike pump.

Wine bottle hack number three, the bike
pump.

I'm not much of a bicycle person.

I'm not much of a bicycle person.

I don't do this for... I don't even want
to do this. I'm not going to do this.

No, no luck so far?

No, no luck. Okay, I will show you how I
do this.

You have to take the needle from the
hose on the bike pump.

and work it into the cork. You're going
to pump air inside the bottle, and that

is going to force the cork out.

Here we go.

Oh, wow.

Sorry, guys. Brooke did the hack, so
you're going to have to pay for that

bottle.

You know, you can use just a shoe to
open a bottle of wine. Place your shoe

against a tree, a wall of support beam,
something firm.

Insert the wine into the heel, and then
you just start hacking away.

You can see it coming out?

Yeah. The force of the liquid in Kevin's
rage is going to pump the cork out.

Here, there it goes.

Ta -da!

When you're throwing a pool party, you
can really be drowning in

But with the right hacks, everything
will go swimmingly.

Here is how to hack your pool party.

Someone shows up with warm beer, no
problem. You just pour a few tablespoons

salt into a bucket of melting ice water,
drop the beer in, spin it around, and

you'll have cold brews in two minutes
flat.

Or if you're really in a hurry, you can
turn a bottle of compressed air upside

down, start spraying the beer, and
you'll have cold brews in about 30

And that giant watermelon you've got?
It's more than just a refreshing snack.

can actually be hacked into a flavor
-infusing drink dispenser.

Cut open the top, hollow it out, cut a
small hole in the side, and insert an

ordinary fig in. When that's done, fill
it with whatever beverage or whatever

booze you want, and there you go.

Finally, the ultimate pool party hack to
ensure the pool stays clean.

Drop in a tennis ball. The felted
surface will absorb all the unwanted

floating around the water's surface.

Or drop in a bunch if your guests are
really greasy.

You've just hacked yourself the pool
party of the season.

Coming up, the lazy way to make tacos in
two minutes.

And we're going to show you how to make
an AC using an old fan, PVC pipe, and

duct tape.

It's like a polar bear breaking wind
right in my nose.

I'm going to teach you how to make tacos
to go. It's really simple because all

you need is a bag of corn chips and any
other ingredient that sounds delicious.

So, first step, we want to open the bag
of chips.

Little to no effort there, which is
great.

Your next step is to add all your
ingredients. A little cheese.

Okay, a lot of cheese.

Salsa will definitely give the zing and
the concise.

Cilantro, that's pretty good. It gives
it nice freshness.

A little bit of fresh corn? Why not?

Last step, garnish it with a little bit
of lime.

Take it out, move it around.

All right.

Last step, eat it.

Why not?

I have to say it's good. You know, you
got yourself a classy bag of walk -in

tacos.

Apparently you can hack a cold toilet
seat with a pair of toothbrushes.

Lucky us.

We're going to find out if it's hack or
whack.

This is the first hurdle to this hack is
that you have to touch your toilet

seat. That's gross. Which I don't want
to. I don't know where my own ass has

been. Yeah.

Not to mention this is a public
bathroom.

This is some new personal low right now.

All right. How does that look?

Now you go ahead and give it a sit and
let us know if that has created a nice

pleasant barrier.

Oh. You know what? I'm fine. Girls
hover, so it's not really an issue for

ahead. Also, you're thinner. You have a
smaller butt. Probably gets colder.

You're like a chihuahua.

Have fun. I'm going to shut the door.

Okay, Brooke, my pants are lowered.

Great. Good. I'm glad you have that
stepped down.

Touchdown. Sides are warm.

Brooke,

it worked.

That is so great. You should see this.
It's like riding in Grand Pappy's Buick.

Okay, so that's a pro.

And my thighs are not frozen cold.

Ooh, are there any cons?

Uh, yeah. There are socks on the toilet.

You had to put socks on your toilet.

I would say that qualifies as a con for
this hack. Plus, if men are so lazy that

they barely put the seat down, they're
going to stain these socks. You know

I'm talking about?

You can come on out of there now if you
want.

Well, does it keep your thighs warm?

Yes. Would I recommend it? No.

Way too much work.

And now I have extra laundry to do. I'd
say this hack is whack.

To the hacker, one man's trash is
another man's treasure. We got an old

-powered fan, a PVC elbow piece of duct
tape, scissors.

Sharpie, like a cutting implement.

Believe it or not, all of this can
assemble like Voltron into an air

conditioning unit.

Step number one, get yourself a
styrofoam cooler filled with some ice.

Step two, cut a hole for a fan.

You cut twice, measure after.

Cut, measure, don't measure, just cut.

Oh, beautiful. That is perfect.

Dutch tape it into place so the fan is
secure.

Dutch tape is stupid.

On the other end, cut a small hole for
PVC pipe so that the cool air has

somewhere to go.

Then finish with some more duct tape.

You should end up with a nice frosty
result.

Mmm. Mm -hmm.

Yeah. It's like a polar bear breaking
wind right in my nose. Get some junk.

Build a cheap AC.

Coming up, find out what hack will save
you hundreds of dollars.

And we crown our mouth -watering,
calorie -cutting Hack of the Week. You

want to miss this.

Do I still have eyebrows?

We've seen a lot of hacks today.

Some were successful, and some are not
worth your time.

So, which one should you try?

Best time -saving hack, chilling beer
with compressed air.

Normally, it takes two hours to chill a
beer.

But cooling a 12 -pack with compressed
air will only take six minutes.

Biggest money saver, using a squeegee on
pet hair. The best vacuum on the market

costs up to $650, whereas a squeegee
costs around $10. That leaves $640 for

toys.

Least likely to succeed, the sock toilet
seat warmer.

Tube socks make the toilet seat warmer.

But you'll spend 40 minutes washing
those socks. And if the average person

to the bathroom roughly five times a
day, you'll end up using five pairs of

socks, leaving your feet cold.

And finally, the hack of the week, using
potato chips as a charcoal substitute.

A burger can lose up to 33 % of its fat
when grilled. And if you choose to grill

with chips instead of eating them,
you'll save around 1 ,200 calories.

So it's the perfect diet as well.

But if you like your burger really well
done, use nacho chips instead.

Hey!

Do I still have eyebrows?
