10/10 would watch again. Prior to seeing the end, I was going to post that I have one leg, and I would hop across the room before doing all this nonsen... oh.
This is 100% necessary. What else are you supposed to do if you break both your legs and need to use a wheelchair, but when you go to wheel over to get the paper, the wheels pop off and your phone dies and you live alone in a house on top of a hill that the closest neighbor is a 14 minute drive, so no one can help you, but the reason you need that paper is because someone is going to explode your house and you are going to die unless you email them a picture of that paper within 5 minutes. When that happens you are going to laugh at everyone who said you were crazy. There isn't time to make the thingn in only 5 minutes and use it, so anyone else would be doomed
Indeed! I’m going to be posting full length YouTube videos of engineering projects with office supplies. The link is in my profile. If you do happen to sub there, let me know!
The inability of half the people on this sub to differentiate between intentional nonsense and actual stupidity has reduced my hopes for humanity as much as the stupid life hack videos we’re supposed to be making fun of here.
The time it took to grab that roll of paper was enough for me to walk to the table pick it up unroll it, roll it back and put it where it was and sit down.
Is the concept of "fun" not a thing anymore? I thought this sub was meant for botched DIY that was meant to be "proper", not silly doohickeys people build for entertainment.
this belongs in r/doohickeycorporation
My first thought when watching this, too. The team down in the Long-Distance-Grabbing department need to see this!
And then r/redneckengineering
Latest development from the not walking across the room department
This is peak efficiency.
The Rick roll saved it for me
Also the heavy breathing after finishing the contraption/trying to use it LOL

Rick scroll
Mother fucker
My thoughts exactly.
Dont give up
Never gonna give
This was the most elaborate Rick Roll I have observed. I literally screamed “damn it!”
Stupid reddit.
Excellent use of company time!
Ba ha ha ha! this one is genius!

It is but this is more fun.
Why do that shit when you can WASTE COMPANY RESOURCES and stick it to the corporate overlords for a Rick roll?
How to basic vibes
The man was inspirational, what can I say?
I still binge that stuff sometimes, love the chaotic energy here
This OC?

Inventive but stupid.
This is so stupid, and Iove every aspect of it.
I feel so understood rn
It still is a thing. He walked across the room to put that there. He even walked all the way back to make his thing a magig
And then he walked across the room to film the cut where hes actually able to grab the roll of rick.
Awesome. I love that OP has an id on his desk that is his Reddit name.
This got a smile out of me that it wouldn't've if they'd just walked across the room.
Maybe his frisbee got stuck in a tree
That's neat as hell lol
Aw stop it. Go on tho.
r/Diwhynot
Listen to how hard dude is breathing while trying to hold up that apparatus. Sounds like walking might kill him.
I came here just to see this comment 😁
This wasn't done to solve a problem, this is for fun.
Wrong sub, completely necessary contraption.
Clearly he knows how to work smarter not harder.
That’s actually pretty impressive lmao plus extra points for the Rick Roll
I gasped at the creative ingenuity
I can perfectly visualize the expression on this guy's face during the furious nose-breathing
DiYnot?
Shameless plug for my YouTube channel which is linked in my profile. Full length engineering builds with office supplies will be posted shortly!
Great twist ending!
Alright he got me
I haven’t been Rick rolled since 2005. Well played sir.
Fucking A 🤣🤣
I am .. "Ruler Man". Snap.
My unemployed friend on a Tuesday morning
This individual was bored, so they made that.
When I get fatter, lazier and stupider I’m gonna make one of those. Or not
stupider? y’all get on here a fucking yap lmao
Bro thought he was Mac Gyver
Well, sometimes the floor is lava.
Fraud, waste, and abuse! Jk
This man asked if he could, not if he should.
I'd do a liquid filled hydraulic system rather than air but otherwise no notes.
You mean like crossfit?
Why walk when you can create a complex system of pulleys and levers just to fetch the remote?
I swear, the majority of the people in this sub don’t understand that there are people who just like making things.
Hey, sometimes I'm really bored at work
When floor is lava...
It is, but this is funnier because it takes more work
5 minute crafts ruined everything
I love when people have just the most dedication to the joke. This is amazing!
This is the military in a nutshell. Except they’d cancel the project just about when they’re going to finish.
This is when that one guy names Jeremy has again planted a bomb in your chair, and you're absolutely sure it's a Friday when it's actually Thursday.
Classic. Rick rolled by a rolled up Rick!
Took longer to build, than to just get up and get it

I was worries about where that was going for a minute. Glad I didn’t give up.
This is a man who will get in trouble for using too many office supplies.
Jokes on him, that was barely a minute long and I skipped most of it, bet that took him ages to make. Can’t say it was time well spent.

Someone reinvented the Nintendo Ultrahand
The only DIWHY I’ll accept
This is the type shit the kid in the back of the class would be doing
What's wrong with him breathing so hard.
Views are a thing
The jerky movements and the jump-cuts made me seasick. No thanks.
My brother has a lot of LEGO Technics parts.
We never tried a pneumaticc claw on it, though. I'm emailing him a link to the video...
The time it took to grab that roll of paper was enough for me to walk to the table pick it up unroll it, roll it back and put it where it was and sit down.
Bummer to see Buttered Side Down suffered from some budget cuts
Say what you will, but I’d like to see AI do this.
Ultimate job security.
Did I just get Rick rolled?!?!
Heavy breathing from the sedentary life. Rick would not approve!
This is what happens when you leave an engineer alone without a project to focus on.
I can see myself being bored enough in the office to try this.
Damn good Rickrollactually
Love the placard
YAY!
Good thing we all have a spare twenty rulers nearby
Just don't tell the boss, he might take your supply privileges away
Lazy people will dominate the technological world 😂
Bro just wasted like 40+ dollars of office supplies
Jesus this needs more edits

This sub is falling of smh
