make your life easier. This show is

to help you, not hurt you. So hack at
your own risk.

3
00:00:12,850 --> 00:00:15,410
Imagine a world without Popper's
security.

after night. Protect yourself with

5
00:00:22,710 --> 00:00:23,760
Popper's security.

And adorable little intruders will be
scared off by a loud bang.

8
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:34,820
Popper's Home Security.

9
00:00:35,540 --> 00:00:38,400
Delivering the most bang for your buck.

10
00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:44,819
Tonight on Hack My Life, we've got hacks
for everything, including... Hacks that

11
00:00:44,820 --> 00:00:46,759
will make you want to do your house
chores.

12
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,100
Hacks to shine your shoes.

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,740
And hacks that claim to turn cheap wine
into the good stuff.

14
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:57,139
Plus, a slew of other surprising hacks,
all leading up to our incredible Hack of

15
00:00:57,140 --> 00:00:57,779
the Week.

16
00:00:57,780 --> 00:01:00,240
This is Hack My Life.

17
00:01:00,241 --> 00:01:04,869
You ever found yourself in the middle of
a parking garage or searching for your

18
00:01:04,870 --> 00:01:06,230
car? Where is my car?

19
00:01:06,570 --> 00:01:10,269
There it is. There's a hack that
increases the distance that your key

20
00:01:10,270 --> 00:01:13,130
actually find your car. And all it
requires is your skull.

21
00:01:13,390 --> 00:01:17,409
Yeah. Holding your key to your chin,
your skull becomes an amplifier for the

22
00:01:17,410 --> 00:01:20,729
signal, allowing you to find your car
further away. Today, we're going to find

23
00:01:20,730 --> 00:01:22,130
out if it's hack or whack.

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,180
To start, I've got a tape measure.

25
00:01:25,181 --> 00:01:28,759
Convenient. I have a key and a skull. So
first to test it, we're going to go the

26
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,039
conventional way and just see how far we
can get from the car using nothing but

27
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:32,719
the key.

28
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,339
It still works from this distance.

29
00:01:34,340 --> 00:01:36,199
Yeah, what are we at? We're about 20
feet?

30
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,600
70 feet -ish. Yep, still good. We're
about 80.

31
00:01:38,860 --> 00:01:40,700
Okay. Oh, oh.

32
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:44,600
Yes, it works out there. It does not
work here.

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,280
So I think we call this time of death.

34
00:01:47,700 --> 00:01:49,700
Okay. 83 feet. Hold on.

35
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,330
It totally worked.

36
00:01:55,900 --> 00:02:02,279
I can hear a tumor forming, I think.
Yeah, seriously. Hold on. I just forgot

37
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,580
childhood. It's gone. I locked it, but
the remote still worked.

38
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,760
Back it up. Back it up.

39
00:02:07,761 --> 00:02:11,319
Oh, when did it cut out? Boom. Yeah, and
it doesn't work. I mean, it works at

40
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,979
143, so I'd say we got from 83 to 143.
Yeah, 60 feet. 60 feet. It gave you 60

41
00:02:15,980 --> 00:02:16,919
feet of range.

42
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:19,620
The noggin works, my friends. This is
hack.

43
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,040
It's a hack. It worked.

44
00:02:29,811 --> 00:02:37,579
According to the interwebs, there are
some common household hacks for shining

45
00:02:37,580 --> 00:02:40,979
shoes. And today, we've got some
professional shoe shiners who are going

46
00:02:40,980 --> 00:02:43,040
us put them to the test. In this Hack
vs.

47
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,900
Hack, these will be your new tools of
the trade.

48
00:02:47,140 --> 00:02:48,580
We've got some vegetable oil.

49
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:49,840
We've got some bananas.

50
00:02:49,841 --> 00:02:53,399
Do you guys think you could get some
shoes shiny with these objects?

51
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,840
Well, we're going to find out.

52
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:57,700
Let's commence with the shining.

53
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,360
Yeah. Vegetable oil, I have got to see.

54
00:03:00,580 --> 00:03:02,810
You're going to shine my shoes or cook
them?

55
00:03:03,140 --> 00:03:06,580
I have one concern. The banana scent.

56
00:03:06,581 --> 00:03:09,619
Right. You're going to smell like a
produce department.

57
00:03:09,620 --> 00:03:13,500
Yeah. Are you surprised that that looks
shiny so quick?

58
00:03:13,740 --> 00:03:17,180
I am, yes. It's surpassing expectations.

59
00:03:18,620 --> 00:03:20,850
All right. How are we looking over here,
man?

60
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:23,260
Not good. This is going to kill the
shoe.

61
00:03:23,261 --> 00:03:27,249
The surface of the shoe is going to be
dull. This will never get a shine unless

62
00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:29,610
I clean that off and use some of that
oil.

63
00:03:29,611 --> 00:03:33,289
So you think whatever is in that banana
that is giving us a little bit of polish

64
00:03:33,290 --> 00:03:35,690
is also dulling it as well? Yes.

65
00:03:37,910 --> 00:03:39,350
Time for the moment of truth.

66
00:03:39,550 --> 00:03:43,570
Let's see how these shoes stack up next
to my professional, well -oiled polish.

67
00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:45,310
The banana peel?

68
00:03:46,430 --> 00:03:47,480
Not so good.

69
00:03:47,830 --> 00:03:50,550
There's a little bit of shine there, but
I can see...

70
00:03:50,551 --> 00:03:54,639
The banana residue, I can feel it. It's
gritty. That's not something I would

71
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,739
recommend. Now, the vegetable oil, the
polish looks about the same. Both shoes

72
00:03:58,740 --> 00:04:03,399
are equally shiny. It actually feels
just like my polish. So I'd say that's

73
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:04,119
clear winner.

74
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,799
If you absolutely have to hack your
shoes at home, reach for the vegetable

75
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,660
and just eat the banana.

76
00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:17,099
Let me tell you about my friend Glass
Cleaner. It's also a shoe cleaner. You

77
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:20,119
some leather kicks. You've been walking
around. Things are getting dirty.

78
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,180
A couple spritzes, a little rag.

79
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,870
Look at how shiny that is. I can see
your future. It's bright, my friend.

80
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,259
I need to take my pills with me
everywhere I go, but I hate lugging

81
00:04:38,260 --> 00:04:42,860
clunky bottles. Now what? No problem.
Just stow pills in your contact lens

82
00:04:43,220 --> 00:04:47,199
But I need to take out my contact
lenses, and now there are pills in my

83
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,250
case. Now what?

84
00:04:48,540 --> 00:04:51,460
Settle down. Use creamer containers to
store your lenses.

85
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,640
I just dumped out creamer to put my
contact lenses into.

86
00:04:55,980 --> 00:04:57,900
Now my coffee's going to taste awful.

87
00:04:57,901 --> 00:04:59,719
Now what?

88
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,239
All right, I got this. Just toss salt on
the beans before brewing to make your

89
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,290
coffee taste better.

90
00:05:04,860 --> 00:05:08,979
Everyone keeps flipping on my icy
sidewalk because I used up all the salt

91
00:05:08,980 --> 00:05:10,030
delicious coffee.

92
00:05:10,650 --> 00:05:11,890
Now what? No worries.

93
00:05:12,250 --> 00:05:15,980
Just throw down some kitty litter to
give some traction to an icy sidewalk.

94
00:05:16,170 --> 00:05:20,189
Well, let's just say I even have a cat.
I don't. All the kitty litter's out on

95
00:05:20,190 --> 00:05:22,540
the sidewalk and the cat's peeing on the
floor.

96
00:05:22,810 --> 00:05:23,860
Now what?

97
00:05:23,861 --> 00:05:25,149
Okay, relax.

98
00:05:25,150 --> 00:05:29,389
Just make a mix of water, white vinegar,
baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and

99
00:05:29,390 --> 00:05:31,450
soap to get rid of cat urine odors.

100
00:05:31,670 --> 00:05:34,190
Great, great. Still not going to get a
cat.

101
00:05:34,430 --> 00:05:35,480
Not happening.

102
00:05:36,830 --> 00:05:41,189
Sometimes an item is so useful, it
ascends into the pantheon of great

103
00:05:41,190 --> 00:05:46,109
tools. This week's Hack All -Star will
undeniably be celebrated for years to

104
00:05:46,110 --> 00:05:48,410
come. The toilet paper roll.

105
00:05:49,150 --> 00:05:53,049
Feed multiple power cords through a
toilet paper roll to keep them from

106
00:05:53,050 --> 00:05:54,550
tangled. All -Star.

107
00:05:55,090 --> 00:05:57,870
Cut a two -inch slit in the side of an
empty roll.

108
00:05:58,090 --> 00:06:02,790
Put two pins in the bottom and enjoy
sweet tunes on your new speaker system.

109
00:06:03,130 --> 00:06:04,180
All -Star.

110
00:06:04,460 --> 00:06:08,579
Make a biodegradable mini planter by
filling three quarters of the roll with

111
00:06:08,580 --> 00:06:11,160
soil, adding seed, and topping it off.

112
00:06:11,500 --> 00:06:12,550
All the time.

113
00:06:12,860 --> 00:06:17,380
Fill an empty roll with old dryer lint
to easily light a campfire.

114
00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:18,670
All the time.

115
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:22,560
Use several upright rolls to keep your
desk drawers organized.

116
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,139
Fair warning, though. You might become
that guy with the toilet paper rolls and

117
00:06:27,140 --> 00:06:27,719
a desk.

118
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:28,770
All the time.

119
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,599
And finally, keep a kid occupied for
hours by telling them the rolls are

120
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,900
binoculars. Kids will believe anything.

121
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,420
Here's to you, toilet paper roll.

122
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,000
Welcome to the club.

123
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,620
Coming up, save hundreds of dollars on
cleaning supplies.

124
00:06:45,020 --> 00:06:48,520
And we show you how to hack hours off
your weekend chores.

125
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:54,079
Plus, which hack can stop this from
happening? Keep it here for more Hack My

126
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,130
Life.

127
00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:05,209
Living with some people can be pure
hell. To protect yourself, you need a

128
00:07:05,210 --> 00:07:07,870
line of defense against the cheap
roommate.

129
00:07:08,730 --> 00:07:13,469
The cheap roommate is such a penny
pincher. She refuses to pay the electric

130
00:07:13,470 --> 00:07:14,810
even though it's her month.

131
00:07:15,670 --> 00:07:19,210
To keep yourself out of the dark, hack
some crayons into candles.

132
00:07:19,970 --> 00:07:23,210
First, melt the flat end and stick it to
a sheet of aluminum foil.

133
00:07:23,430 --> 00:07:28,569
Then, set fire to the paper surrounding
the tip. It'll burn for hours, just like

134
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:29,620
your rage.

135
00:07:30,540 --> 00:07:35,419
The cheap roommate doesn't buy her own
DVDs. No, she just borrows yours. And

136
00:07:35,420 --> 00:07:36,740
then never gives them back.

137
00:07:36,741 --> 00:07:40,599
You can make sure they don't go missing
forever by taking a photo of her holding

138
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,560
everything she takes. You know, as a
friendly reminder.

139
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,999
The cheap roommate uses your razor
instead of buying her own, leaving you

140
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,050
of grossed out and with a very dull
shave.

141
00:07:51,051 --> 00:07:55,159
Well, instead of buying a new one, just
swipe your razor over a pair of jeans

142
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,000
several times in both directions.

143
00:07:57,580 --> 00:08:00,440
The tough thread rubs out Nick and
sharpens the blaze.

144
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,579
And finally, the cheap roommate never
picks up more duster sheets, even though

145
00:08:06,580 --> 00:08:08,300
it's been her turn since 2012.

146
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,080
To hack your own, just take an old t
-shirt or a rag and cut it to fit your

147
00:08:13,660 --> 00:08:16,180
Sorry, we don't have a hack to make her
use.

148
00:08:16,181 --> 00:08:20,799
But now you can afford to hire someone
else to clean because you just saved a

149
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:25,060
ton of money with our hack line of
defense against a cheap roommate.

150
00:08:26,860 --> 00:08:29,920
You ever open a can of soda or beer and
this happens?

151
00:08:30,740 --> 00:08:35,879
You can tap the top of a can and that
will stop it from exploding. Yeah, but

152
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,499
we're going to see how far we can push
this hack before it literally blows up

153
00:08:39,500 --> 00:08:40,079
our face.

154
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,720
This calls for a hack experiment.

155
00:08:43,260 --> 00:08:47,620
Oh, look, I'm at my favorite poncho
party and my hands are not gripping

156
00:08:47,621 --> 00:08:48,939
I need to fix that.

157
00:08:48,940 --> 00:08:51,410
Hey, Brooke, beer me, bro. Gonna beer
you, bro? Oh.

158
00:08:51,580 --> 00:08:54,590
But wait, now I don't have a beer party
file. There you go. Okay.

159
00:08:55,630 --> 00:08:57,550
Both tosses were equally disturbing.

160
00:08:57,551 --> 00:09:01,449
You've got to give it several taps
around the top, a couple flicks around

161
00:09:01,450 --> 00:09:05,549
side. Open slowly. Give the carbonation
a chance to come out. Here we go. You

162
00:09:05,550 --> 00:09:06,429
ready? Okay.

163
00:09:06,430 --> 00:09:09,570
All right. Three, two, brew.

164
00:09:11,110 --> 00:09:12,470
Oh. That's nothing.

165
00:09:12,471 --> 00:09:14,969
Beautiful. Guys, mission accomplished.

166
00:09:14,970 --> 00:09:15,829
The hack works.

167
00:09:15,830 --> 00:09:17,130
Tap your can. We're done.

168
00:09:17,131 --> 00:09:20,209
No, no, no. We better step it up a
little bit if we really want to see if

169
00:09:20,210 --> 00:09:21,770
hack works. You ready? I'm ready.

170
00:09:21,850 --> 00:09:22,900
Oh, jeez.

171
00:09:23,810 --> 00:09:24,860
Okay.

172
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,860
Oh, that was beautiful.

173
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:30,820
Let's test these. All right.

174
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,240
Wait, wait, wait. Before we open these,
safety first.

175
00:09:34,940 --> 00:09:38,080
Fashionable. Fashionable. All right. You
got to tap away.

176
00:09:38,580 --> 00:09:41,180
Okay. You ready? Yeah. Here we go. All
hand.

177
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,460
Three, two, one.

178
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:45,760
Oh. Okay.

179
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,410
Considering the tumble that they took?
Yeah.

180
00:09:48,780 --> 00:09:51,200
That wasn't that bad. Two for two. The
hack works.

181
00:09:51,201 --> 00:09:53,219
Good day, ladies and gentlemen.

182
00:09:53,220 --> 00:09:57,059
Oh, we are not done yet. I am going to
take this, and we're going to kick it up

183
00:09:57,060 --> 00:10:00,010
one more notch, Kev. So you just stay
right here. I'll be back.

184
00:10:00,011 --> 00:10:02,099
I don't think we have roof access.
Mama's got a plan.

185
00:10:02,100 --> 00:10:06,099
She took my beer. It's a paint cam
shaker. This is the ultimate test to see

186
00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:07,720
this tapping hack works. Cheers.

187
00:10:10,740 --> 00:10:11,790
Okay.

188
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,880
Okay, I'd say that's violently shaken.

189
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,210
Okay.

190
00:10:17,490 --> 00:10:19,070
I know, would you gently tap?

191
00:10:20,141 --> 00:10:22,189
I'm a little nervous.

192
00:10:22,190 --> 00:10:24,360
The hack was never designed for this
level.

193
00:10:24,430 --> 00:10:25,910
Okay, well, we'll find out.

194
00:10:26,210 --> 00:10:28,670
On the count of three, two, one.

195
00:10:30,250 --> 00:10:32,890
It could have been worse.

196
00:10:32,891 --> 00:10:35,849
It could have been a lot worse. The
whole thing could have exploded. This

197
00:10:35,850 --> 00:10:39,849
actually moves the gas around and makes
your beer less foamy. These things were

198
00:10:39,850 --> 00:10:42,090
violently shaken. This is a phenomenal
hack.

199
00:10:42,091 --> 00:10:43,559
Cheers, everybody.

200
00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:47,500
Cheers. A simple dent on your car door
can cost hundreds of dollars to repair.

201
00:10:47,740 --> 00:10:52,079
We're going to find out if a plunger,
some dry ice, or a can of compressed air

202
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,400
can provide a quick and affordable fix.

203
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,760
This is a hack -off challenge.

204
00:10:58,700 --> 00:10:59,750
Let's begin.

205
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,200
Yeah, the store has seen some serious
rage.

206
00:11:03,201 --> 00:11:06,649
Somebody got some real aggression out.
Okay, I'm getting out of the way of

207
00:11:06,650 --> 00:11:09,509
That is a clump of dry ice. The theory
behind this is that the extreme

208
00:11:09,510 --> 00:11:12,829
temperature using dry ice is going to
cause the metal to contract the

209
00:11:12,830 --> 00:11:15,509
in there. They're going to huddle up for
warmth, and that should pop the dent

210
00:11:15,510 --> 00:11:17,310
right out. Yeah, I don't see anything.

211
00:11:17,330 --> 00:11:20,310
Yeah, I don't, uh... Oh, wait, wait.

212
00:11:20,550 --> 00:11:22,050
Yeah, nope, nothing happened.

213
00:11:22,051 --> 00:11:26,529
All right, Rob, what do you think? You
were down there. You're the expert.

214
00:11:26,530 --> 00:11:30,140
Yeah, I would say this technique is no
good. It looks pretty cool, though.

215
00:11:30,750 --> 00:11:33,400
Made some smoke. Right? I mean, that was
pretty sweet.

216
00:11:33,401 --> 00:11:36,309
So for this hack, we're going to be
using a hair dryer to heat up the metal.

217
00:11:36,310 --> 00:11:39,749
once it's nice and warm, we're going to
take the compressed air, and this should

218
00:11:39,750 --> 00:11:41,310
come out nice and cool.

219
00:11:41,550 --> 00:11:45,280
You want to get it going? Yeah, let's
give it a shot. Yeah, sounds plausible.

220
00:11:47,070 --> 00:11:48,120
All right, how is it?

221
00:11:48,201 --> 00:11:49,949
Feels warm.

222
00:11:49,950 --> 00:11:51,029
Yeah, you want to give it a try?

223
00:11:51,030 --> 00:11:53,249
Let's give it a try. Oh, yeah, that's
nice and warm. All right, here we go.

224
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:54,910
Three, two, pull it.

225
00:12:01,470 --> 00:12:02,520
Forget about it.

226
00:12:02,521 --> 00:12:04,979
You're calling this one?

227
00:12:04,980 --> 00:12:08,699
Calling it. Well, I thought this one
might be a go. Made sense, the sort of

228
00:12:08,700 --> 00:12:12,539
science behind cooling things down, and
I've heard it works, and maybe it has

229
00:12:12,540 --> 00:12:16,200
for some of you, but here, in this
situation, it was a no -go.

230
00:12:16,201 --> 00:12:20,519
Judging by our other hacks, I don't have
faith in the plunger, but let's see if

231
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,519
it works. Sure.

232
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,039
So what are you going to do? Are you
going to apply around the dent? Are you

233
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,539
going to go right over it? I'm going to
go right about here. Okay.

234
00:12:26,540 --> 00:12:28,220
That's a reasonable dent, though.

235
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,770
What?

236
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,450
Shit! Just one little plunge? That's it.

237
00:12:33,451 --> 00:12:36,129
I mean, if it's going to work, it's
going to be that easy?

238
00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:39,889
Well, this is a flat area where they
really need that much strength, so it's

239
00:12:39,890 --> 00:12:43,929
lot stronger here. So this dent, you
have to use another method on getting

240
00:12:43,930 --> 00:12:48,849
out. And that concludes one of the most
surprising hack -off challenges I have

241
00:12:48,850 --> 00:12:49,569
ever witnessed.

242
00:12:49,570 --> 00:12:51,800
Next time you get a door ding, call a
plumber.

243
00:12:59,391 --> 00:13:06,719
Hey, you work hard all week, so you
don't want to spend your entire weekend

244
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,339
doing chores at home. You know, with
just a few simple hacks, you'll have

245
00:13:10,340 --> 00:13:13,459
feet up in the game on, because we're
going to show you how to hack your

246
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:14,510
housekeeping.

247
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,060
Cleaning gutters blows.

248
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:21,340
But that's a good thing with this hack.
Just attach a PVC pipe to a leaf blower,

249
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,760
and then attach a J -shaped drain to the
pipe.

250
00:13:25,940 --> 00:13:27,860
No leaf will be left behind.

251
00:13:29,060 --> 00:13:31,200
There's nothing worse than a strip
screw.

252
00:13:31,790 --> 00:13:36,169
So get a grip by laying a rubber band
across the top of your screwdriver and

253
00:13:36,170 --> 00:13:37,220
then turn it.

254
00:13:37,630 --> 00:13:40,330
But if your screw is too small, grab a
toothpick.

255
00:13:40,630 --> 00:13:44,420
If you wedge it in the hole, it gives
the smaller screw something to cling to.

256
00:13:44,421 --> 00:13:49,209
Wait, wait, wait. Do you still have that
rubber band from earlier?

257
00:13:49,210 --> 00:13:52,929
Because if so, use it around the mouth
of an open paint can and then wipe your

258
00:13:52,930 --> 00:13:57,150
brush on it. You're going to save a lot
of cleanup time and paint remover.

259
00:13:57,390 --> 00:13:59,740
See, now you have plenty of time to find
a hobby.

260
00:13:59,930 --> 00:14:02,160
Because you just hacked your
housekeeping.

261
00:14:03,430 --> 00:14:07,750
Coming up, we've got a hack that will
bring those old shoes back to life.

262
00:14:08,170 --> 00:14:12,129
And we'll see if this blender hack can
fool the taste buds of these wine

263
00:14:12,130 --> 00:14:16,449
drinkers. Plus, our hack of the week
will ensure that you'll never lose your

264
00:14:16,450 --> 00:14:19,570
again. Keep it here for more Hack My
Life.

265
00:14:33,610 --> 00:14:36,500
To the hacker, one man's trash is
another man's treasure.

266
00:14:36,550 --> 00:14:38,960
You can do all sorts of cool stuff with
old shoes.

267
00:14:39,070 --> 00:14:41,240
How about turning it into a pot for a
plant?

268
00:14:41,550 --> 00:14:42,750
Anybody want to do that?

269
00:14:43,110 --> 00:14:47,829
I do? Okay, let's try it. Here's a fun
fact. I've never used a power tool in my

270
00:14:47,830 --> 00:14:48,689
entire life.

271
00:14:48,690 --> 00:14:51,649
So we're going to drill a couple holes
in the bottom of our shoe for the

272
00:14:51,650 --> 00:14:52,700
drainage.

273
00:14:54,770 --> 00:14:55,990
Oh, so satisfying.

274
00:14:56,390 --> 00:15:00,549
So now we have some holes, and now we
can put in a little potting mix. Oh,

275
00:15:00,550 --> 00:15:02,230
is going to be such a healthy plant.

276
00:15:02,270 --> 00:15:03,320
Look at that.

277
00:15:03,980 --> 00:15:05,060
And now we transplant.

278
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,710
Let's go ahead and just wiggle that on
in there.

279
00:15:07,860 --> 00:15:09,600
We'll get it on in there. Don't worry.

280
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,130
Good.

281
00:15:12,131 --> 00:15:14,859
This is the stupidest thing that I've
ever done.

282
00:15:14,860 --> 00:15:17,600
But look at it. That's a masterpiece
right there.

283
00:15:19,340 --> 00:15:22,230
Let's say you were just outside admiring
your boot guard.

284
00:15:22,420 --> 00:15:25,730
You got to come inside and you don't
have a place to put your jacket.

285
00:15:26,260 --> 00:15:27,880
That sounds like a major problem.

286
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:33,120
Give your coats a home with a 2x4, some
nails, and some stilettos.

287
00:15:33,121 --> 00:15:35,489
Put some nails into the top of that
board.

288
00:15:35,490 --> 00:15:37,900
Space them out however you like. Is that
enough?

289
00:15:40,290 --> 00:15:41,340
Oh, my God.

290
00:15:41,790 --> 00:15:45,170
Marvelous. So look at that. Some
stilettos, some nails, a board.

291
00:15:45,370 --> 00:15:49,770
You got yourself a hat hanger, a coat
hanger, whatever you want to hang.

292
00:15:50,670 --> 00:15:55,129
Seconds ago, we had some shoes on a
table, and now we have the beginnings of

293
00:15:55,130 --> 00:16:01,350
masterful garden, and we have a
wonderful coat and hat hanger.

294
00:16:02,070 --> 00:16:03,120
Shoes!

295
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,290
Who knew?

296
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,539
Blenders are amazing when it comes to
making margaritas, but can they make

297
00:16:22,540 --> 00:16:25,560
wine taste better? Hey, wine drinkers,
can you hack it?

298
00:16:26,479 --> 00:16:30,339
Okay, for this pack, you just take a
bottle of wine and pour the whole thing

299
00:16:30,340 --> 00:16:31,319
into the blender.

300
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,839
Turbo aeration. Exactly. You know, and
it should open up the flavor profile and

301
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,280
maybe make it more drinkable.

302
00:16:36,281 --> 00:16:37,259
We'll see.

303
00:16:37,260 --> 00:16:40,390
So just turn it on high for about four
or five seconds. You got it.

304
00:16:42,660 --> 00:16:46,679
Okay, I think it's aerated. Are we good?
Yep. Just funnel it back into your

305
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,730
original bottle.

306
00:16:47,731 --> 00:16:50,479
Okay, I think we're good to go. We'll
clean this up a little bit and see if

307
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,029
somebody can tell the difference.

308
00:16:52,030 --> 00:16:55,330
Ah, yes. Hello, please step right up. Do
not be shy.

309
00:16:55,770 --> 00:16:57,270
We are taste testing two wines.

310
00:16:57,430 --> 00:17:01,749
One is an expensive bottle of wine, and
the second is a bottle of wine which we

311
00:17:01,750 --> 00:17:02,850
performed a hack on.

312
00:17:04,569 --> 00:17:06,890
Okay, that was all pro. Yep. Big old
sniff there.

313
00:17:10,690 --> 00:17:15,569
Okay, so do you think bottle A or bottle
B is the expensive bottle of wine?

314
00:17:15,570 --> 00:17:19,009
I think I would have to go with bottle A
as the more expensive wine. More

315
00:17:19,010 --> 00:17:22,729
expensive? Yeah. Which wine do you think
is the more expensive wine? There's a

316
00:17:22,730 --> 00:17:24,650
$35 difference between the two of them.

317
00:17:24,970 --> 00:17:27,510
Wow, my palate is playing tricks on me.

318
00:17:27,890 --> 00:17:29,330
Which is the more expensive?

319
00:17:29,331 --> 00:17:30,229
Wine B.

320
00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:35,209
I think wine A was pretending to be a
Mercedes Benz and B is expensive. I felt

321
00:17:35,210 --> 00:17:37,440
like A was the more expensive wine than
the B.

322
00:17:37,441 --> 00:17:41,229
Okay. It is all tied up. Is that what
you choose as well? Yeah, I would agree.

323
00:17:41,230 --> 00:17:43,030
Getting his nose in there. I would say.

324
00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:46,560
A. It's very rich. Wine A. I think
that's the $40 one. Here we go.

325
00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:49,350
Oh!

326
00:17:49,620 --> 00:17:55,619
Wine A is a $5 bottle of wine that we
performed a hack on. That blew me away.

327
00:17:55,620 --> 00:17:58,699
stuck a bottle of wine in a blender for
six seconds. Get out of here.

328
00:17:58,700 --> 00:17:59,419
That's it.

329
00:17:59,420 --> 00:18:00,470
I know.

330
00:18:00,620 --> 00:18:02,420
Well, good for my bank account. I know.

331
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,370
Would you ever try that? I will now.
Will you really? Yes.

332
00:18:06,140 --> 00:18:07,320
Breaking down the hack.

333
00:18:08,270 --> 00:18:13,329
Air -rating wine reduces its sulfite and
sulfide and helps bring out the wine's

334
00:18:13,330 --> 00:18:14,690
intended aroma and flavor.

335
00:18:15,290 --> 00:18:19,829
By putting it in the blender, you
basically age the flavor of your wine

336
00:18:19,830 --> 00:18:20,880
a matter of seconds.

337
00:18:30,110 --> 00:18:32,280
Let's make some spaghetti. What do you
say?

338
00:18:32,410 --> 00:18:34,630
All you'll need is a box of spaghetti.

339
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:42,399
frying pan and a quart of water. Open up
this box of spaghetti and dump it

340
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,100
into your frying pan.

341
00:18:44,740 --> 00:18:51,699
Pour enough water to fill the pan

342
00:18:51,700 --> 00:18:57,779
halfway. Turn this up to a medium heat
and now you're going to cook it until it

343
00:18:57,780 --> 00:19:00,340
seems like the kind of pasta you'd want
to eat.

344
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,719
So this is your finished product.
There's a little bit of starchy water

345
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:10,039
left in the bottom of the pan. Some
people like to use it as the basis for a

346
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,760
homemade sauce. I prefer sauce in a jar
from a store. Real quick.

347
00:19:15,380 --> 00:19:16,430
Dump it.

348
00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:19,640
And that's the tagliato.

349
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,680
I call this dish spaghetti.

350
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,700
Coming up, this time -saving hack will
keep you out of the ER.

351
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,440
What? A hack that will save you $600.

352
00:19:31,679 --> 00:19:33,220
And our hack of the week.

353
00:19:40,540 --> 00:19:44,539
We've shown you a lot of hacks today.
But before we send you on your way,

354
00:19:44,540 --> 00:19:46,740
delve a little deeper into four of the
best.

355
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,960
Awesome, man. To help you become a true
hacker.

356
00:19:51,420 --> 00:19:53,660
Best time -saving hack. The gutter
button.

357
00:19:53,661 --> 00:19:57,879
The old -fashioned way takes about two
hours and involves standing on a ladder,

358
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,859
which, come on, it's not safe. Ladder
accidents account for over 164 ,000 ER

359
00:20:02,860 --> 00:20:07,039
visits a year. You'll wait at the ER for
an average of six hours, so that's

360
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,110
eight hours of your day with the
possibility of a broken bone.

361
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:12,440
Best money -saving hack?

362
00:20:13,100 --> 00:20:14,480
Vegetable oil shoe shine.

363
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,060
A $3 bottle of vegetable oil is good for
roughly 75 shoe shines.

364
00:20:19,590 --> 00:20:23,689
So if you use it once a week, it'll last
almost a year and a half and save you

365
00:20:23,690 --> 00:20:24,740
nearly $600.

366
00:20:26,630 --> 00:20:30,729
Least likely to succeed, using your old
high heels to make a coat rack. The

367
00:20:30,730 --> 00:20:34,270
average woman spends $25 ,000 on shoes
in her lifetime.

368
00:20:34,510 --> 00:20:38,409
So how about you use some of that money
to buy a real coat rack instead and

369
00:20:38,410 --> 00:20:40,050
donate your old heels to charity.

370
00:20:40,570 --> 00:20:44,749
And finally, the hack of the week. It's
amazing. Using your skull to find your

371
00:20:44,750 --> 00:20:48,870
car. Now there are devices and apps that
can help, but they cost up to $25.

372
00:20:49,590 --> 00:20:51,490
So be smart and use your head instead.

373
00:20:51,540 --> 00:20:56,090
