Kris knows when we need a good “fix of funny” and she delivers every time! Plus it just makes our day that much better to see her bright smile and hear her kind voice. 😊😊😊
The pants thing is real, it also works with coveralls while wearing them. Had to learn to do it for the navy boot camp swim test. Thanks for making my day better Kris!
The pants thing is actually part of a survival technique taught in the navy, they teach you how to make floatation devices out of your pants and jacket
"It's Casper or lobster, that's all I can do" 🤣🤣🤣 I'm printing that on a shirt right now 👍 totally identified 💖 I love your videos Kris, you're always making me feel better
Kris, I see you looked a bit confused with the pants as a floatation device section. We use that in the military as part of our "drownproofing" training. It actually works. You take the legs, tie them together, make sure the waist of pants are completely zipped/buttoned up. Place the legs of the pants over your head and around your neck, then take the waist opening and start off by quickly submerging it under the water to form a starting "bubble" of air in the pants (ENSURE YOU KEEP THE WAIST OPENING POINTING STRAIGHT DOWN OR THE AIR WILL ESCAPE), then you slap the water and push bubbles to the opening underwater to inflate the pants more until fully inflated, the pinch the waist opening closed by placing it between your thighs, and you will float in a reclined/seated position. If you start losing air, open the waist, and reinflate by slapping down on the water and pushing the bubbles into the pants and close off again with the legs. Repeat as needed. This is a survival technique the military uses in case you are stranded in open water and have no floatation devices available. I promise this works. And for those that have never done it, it's actually kinda fun to practice.
They taught this in primary school swimming lessons here (UK), though I'm sure it was the trousers you were wearing when "falling in" rather than someone throwing them in for you.
We had drown proofing in 5th grade and i still remember it now in high school, they also taught us one with a button up shirt where we tuck the base into our pants and button if completely and blow into the collar
She said she would try that thing with the pants in the pool to prevent drowning at 50,000 likes. Three hours in we're at 40,000. I hope you can swim Kris.
The floatation thing is real. During a "drown-proofing" class in the US Army, they taught us to do exactly that. Even if you're a good swimmer, take your pants off and do this because you'll eventually get tired if you try to swim. The only caveat is that the material needs to be thick-ish, and once it's wet it holds air fairly well.
As someone who has had to wash uniform pants in the bathtub, I can see it being very effective as a floatation device. Them things do NOT wanna go underwater.
You know 5 Minute Crafts is doing something right, when Kris actually says more then one of the hacks are "decent" or "okay", good job 5 Minute Crafts, you didn't completely fail this time!
The fitted bed sheet at the beach (or the park... or any picnic location) is actually great! It does NOT mean it doesn't get sand on it. But it definitely works. It's great at the park for picnics or the littlest of humans to play in without being directly on the grass. It also seems to help keep ants off the picnic blanket (although this could just be coincidence and/or luck) 😆
11:15 Here in San Diego, it's a common beach tip we give to newcomers and tourists to bring baby powder or cornstarch/corn flour with you to the beach because it's great at removing sand. It doesn't HAVE to be in a sock, you can use it straight from the bottle. However, I think keeping it in the sock means you have less excess powder to wipe off after removing the sand. It's like the grandma's trick to get gum out of your hair if it got stuck there: you put peanut butter on the gum, saturating it thoroughly, and it loosens it. You don't have to cut off the hair to remove the gum.
So the half frozen water bottle thing is actually great, it lasts way longer than ice cubes. I used to do it the night before for work. Another flip flop fix is to use the flat plastic bread tags; it doesn't require cutting like the pop tab, and it's more comfortable than a paper clip.
the pants thing actually works. my uncle was in the military and they taught him to do this in case of being lost at sea. ive tried it myself and yeah, does work. Good job on these youtube videos kris. favorite youtuber

Actually aloe vera is known to help rapidly reduce sunburns, and burns in general. Though just cutting up a leaf and keeping it in the fridge is WAY more effective than a store bought gel. But the aloe + it being cold actually helps with the burn by helping reduce the inflamation= reduced burn time
4:35 this one somewhat makes sense. I’ve been taught before to tie the arms and the body and neck holes on a t-shirt in water to create a makeshift float so I guess it makes sense.
10:28 can you eat aloe? Yes. I'm from a country that does, but it is extremely bitter and slimy, so we kinda use it as a mild medication (especially kids who OD on sweet stuff) So can you? Yes. Should you? At your own risk.
Kriss Ive been having the worst couple of days and you just come in and make me feel happy and loved and thank you so much for that, your an absolute QUEEN
I had an entire group of people laughing when I was putting tea bags all over a friend that had gotten a bad burn. They continued to laugh until 30 minutes later when her sunburn was no longer red and she said it wasn't hurting anymore. I win 😂
The pants life vest is actually something learned by coast guards I believe. It works I've just never seen the beating water to get air in, always scoop the air instead.
Most branches use the same technique. The splashing works, albeit slowly, but the technique I and many I know like is to go under water and blow air in to the pants, pop up and breathe, and repeat till full. Much faster that way.
I love it, how the solution to 90% of the problems 5MinuteCrafts show would be: "just dont be stupid" and their doing more stupid possible dangerous stuff to make it even worse. Love your reactions to this type of content

For anyone who hasn't heard of this particular tip or doesn't get the logic of doing it, during the heatstroke tip, it makes sense to put cold towels or ice in places like the arm pit and around the sides of the neck because these areas are *huge* heat sinks. Unless the body is spread eagle (or emulating DeVinci's Vitruvian Man, the apex of T-posing lol), air cannot reach these places, meaning sweat cannot evaporate and cool them. Instead, the arms would be down, trapping heat, which is especially bad because the body doesn't sweat properly during heatstroke. It's counterintuitive, I know, but this may be a sign of dehydration and the body not being able to move and replenish fluid resources fast enough. The groin also works as a heat sink zone, so applying cold towels to these areas might help too. Additionally, using cold towels on the neck cools the major blood vessels taking blood to and from the brain, which is very important when a person is experiencing their brain cooking. Not cooling these areas instead allows the heart to pump blood that has collected heat from all over the rest of the body, which can damage cells, nerves and more. The best results happen when a person can be cooled down slowly, giving their body time to adjust, but immersion in cool or cold water can effectively treat heatstroke in as little as 15 minutes *when done properly, aka, please save this technique for medical professions or when being instructed by medical professionals.* Signs of Heat Exhaustion, which, if left untreated for an upwards of 30 minutes, can turn into heatstroke: - a headache - dizziness and confusion - loss of appetite and feeling sick - excessive sweating and pale, clammy skin - cramps in the arms, legs and stomach - fast breathing or pulse - a high temperature of 38C or above - being very thirsty Signs of Heatstroke (which, if seen or noticed, do what you can to move the affected person to a cooler location immediately and do what you can to cool them down while also calling medical services): - feeling unwell after 30 minutes of resting in a cool place and drinking plenty of water - not sweating even while feeling too hot - a high temperature of 40C or above - fast breathing or shortness of breath - feeling confused - a fit (seizure) - loss of consciousness - not responsive Always remember that heatstroke, if left unnoticed and untreated, can be very fatal, so keep and eye on yourselves and the people around you for signs and symptoms, everyone! Be safe and stay hydrated!
@@siegfriedmordrake3229 It honestly might be. You must also keep in mind that your friend is in a state of being severely hyperthermic, and that the water's temperature, *depending on your location, the day, the currents, etc.,* might be below a threshold where you can do this safely and avoid giving her something known as Cold Shock Syndrome. This normally occurs in very cold or freezing water, *but* it has been noted to occur in water as warm as 21-25C/69-77F (which might have been caused by trying to do your example). Any warmer than that and the water does virtually nothing effective in terms of heat dispersion. It depends on the state of a person (if they are normally a healthy and hearty person), if they have any pre-existing conditions or are prone to heart conditions (cardiovascular issues as a known killer during Cold Shock Syndrome even in people without pre-existing conditions or genetic family history), if you can avoid putting even more stress on the person's body, accidentally causing more damage, and the current temperature of the waters at your location. There's a reason vets recommend you never put ice in your dog's water on hot summer days. Like I said, please don't submerge someone without either *some* amount of medical training, even just first aid, or being instructed by medical personnel. It's already advised just about everywhere that if you notice someone undergoing heatstroke, just call medical services, so you lose nothing by listening to instructions before trying a more extreme method on your own.
I had a heatstroke during school because nobody cared that I said I was showing signs of heat exhaustion. I wasn't allowed to go to the nurse or the bathroom (tiled, so it would be cooler) and they refused to open the windows. It was only after class ended and I blacked out trying to stand was I taken seriously. Please, everyone everywhere, just take heat exhaustion seriously.
@@Xx-Lunar-xX yeah when I was watching it we were at 169k so I’m saying not only have we gone past 50k but also 100k which means Kris has to face one of her nightmares, balloons.
The amount of dirty humor in this video was making me laugh so hard. Thank you Kris for making such amazing content. And thank you for always complimenting us at the start of every video. You're such a sweetheart and the world needs more people like you. :))
The bathing cap thing at 5:50 actually does work, it's how we used to color-code the swimming ability of kids in the pool at camp, so we had to put on a lot of caps very quickly.
9:47 I love the smell of dryer sheets. My friends know (and this is seriously not a joke, I really do this) if they need a dryer sheet or two they can just ask me and I’ll pull one out of my pocket. I’m seriously always carrying them around.
With the snorkelling goggle hack, you don't need to burn it you just need a little bit of toothpaste and smear it onto the glass/plastic then wash it off in the water. I've used this for years and it works every time even the local marine reserve uses it.
@@tessaa8636 i get that bit but isnt there still just a like a bit that still irritates youre eyes? at least whenever ive done that the toothpaste never completely goes maybe im just doing it wrong?
8:01 idk how tf you're gonna do this... fr grab all the phones and accs to like the damn video lmao I need to see kris in a giantass water balloon before I die🤣
8:51 I actually can say that, while it takes longer (definitely not 5 minutes), the single large ice cube takes longer to melt compared to a bunch of tiny ice cubes. Also, some water bottle heads are too small to put ice cubes through (I have one, it’s annoying when I want cold water), so starting out with water, freezing it sideways so you can still fill it up while having the ice evenly distributed, is actually a cool hack
kris lightens our days all the time 💕 whenever she posts it always makes me super happy, and her compliments are super kind and amazing!! Also she always makes me laugh! Thank you Kris!!
The Coke tab thing is pretty much the exact same thing my family has always done with jandals and bread tags!! It works (at least with bread tags), but not for long :)

thanks for complimenting us when we feel our worst Kris! every time you post a video you put a smile on my face, your super funny and i can’t wait for more content! ❤️
Regarding freezing half your water, it actually really helps. I do this when I go out on hot days. The water stays colder much longer than if you just use ice cubes. I tend to freeze 2/3 of the bottle though
Wouldn't you actually lose more water that way though since ice expands as it freezes? Wouldn't more warm water be better for hydration than a lesser amount of colder water?
@@SpeedForce4525 On a really hot day, the cold water feels nicer. The whole point is that as the ice melts, you have more water to drink, and it's still cold.
9:09 this ice in the bottle trick I have used for over two decades... BUT you have to leave it on it's side when it freezes, that way it cools the entire bottle, otherwise, it only cools the bottom bit of water and the top stays warm. It'll last for hours like this (depending on how large the bottle is). And it's great for bottles that have small openings and you can't get ice into...
Actually the head condom one works, me and all my siblings are on the swim team and dropping the swim cap on with water is something we all do. It actually works great
Thank you so much Kris I went threw a break up yesterday and your compliments always make me feel so much better, I love you and you videos! Have an amazing day Kris, you are amazing and SO PRETTY!!!
50 K likes?? you're making it too easy for us :P you're awesome kris, looking forward to you trying these out hehe- honestly you just have this calming vibe that nowadays i find i can't go on without.. sometimes i watch your old videos when I'm down and it just cheers me right up?? thanks for everything
omg kris you are so funny the scenario with the "inflatable save me from drowning pants" just hilarious🤣🤣🤣🤣 I like watching 5minute crafts because its both dumb and funny and watching with you and your reactions just makes my day. your awesome btw. thanks for doing these do more please.
Just a small fyi, the pants thing actually works. Not super long, so you'll have to do it again after a while, and obviously not as well as a life jacket, but it does work.
6:36 as a scuba diver, I can confirm that, that is how we prep our masks for use after newly buying them. You do this every maybe 5-6 months. Before you get in the water though, you should use a defog spray or spit. 😁

Okay so the tennis ball hack to clean up body oil in the pool is actually the same idea used by a foundation called Matter of Trust, where they use leftover hair donated from salons and individuals and they use the hair donated to create mats that they use to clean up oil spills. It works so well because human hair absorbs hair like crazy and it’s way better for the environment than other tools used to clean up oil spills because the hair mats don’t have plastics or other synthetic materials.
3:45 hey Kris Ik you probably won't see this 😂 but you can also use the plastic bread bag thing. ( the plastic bit that holds bread bags shut) its easier to attach.
The aloe plant is super helpful. Living in Texas, my grandma legit had aloe plants out back and squeezed the goo out of the plants and slapped it on my dad’s sunburns when he was growing up. No fancy prep - just squeeze it right on
I am going through a really tough time right now, but every time Kris posts a new video she makes me instantly happy and it’s so nice to have a nice good laugh twice a week. ❤️❤️
As an Australian who’s always at the beach, freezing your water bottle lasts longer because the ice is bigger and reaches more surface area while still allowing for more water 👍
I love how you always compliment us... lol. and aloe really does help. mu family has been using this trick longer than five-minute crafts have been a thing. when we go to the beach i actually use aloe soap so i dont have to bother with the sun. and the Casper or lobster is soooooo true!
The fitted bedsheets hack is actually really useful for when you have babies who are just starting to crawl, keeps them contained and still gives them space to explore a bit without getting sand in their faces
To answer Kris' question on Aloe Vera, Yes, you can eat Aloe Vera, and it is good for health. However, be warned that it is incredibly bitter, and it tends to activate a gag reflex. I know this because my dad forces me to eat it sometimes.
Who else appreciates how Kris always compliments us? ❤️❤️❤️

The pants thing is real, it also works with coveralls while wearing them. Had to learn to do it for the navy boot camp swim test. Thanks for making my day better Kris!
Came to say the same thing. Learned it in Boy Scouts.
Also works with long sleeve shirts, had to use the old BDU shirts when I was in .
@@Metal_89 ditto
Yep I have also learned and seen this demonstrated in boyscouts
Lol I learned that in jrotc jclc. We were timed and my ocp pant leg got stuck on my foot
The pants thing is actually part of a survival technique taught in the navy, they teach you how to make floatation devices out of your pants and jacket
And instead of just "beat the water" it's taught more as "scoop air into the pants"
@@Clickum yea beating takes more energy for less efficiency as you beat more air out than you trap in
Was about to say the navy bootcamp jacket thing. Can confirm it does work.
Cool! I was actually wondering about that
I learned that survival technique in the Army. Have to admit, I thought it was dumb at first... but it actually works.

I can’t wait
Balloon Time indeed I’m excited to see!
For anyone who hasn't heard of this particular tip or doesn't get the logic of doing it, during the heatstroke tip, it makes sense to put cold towels or ice in places like the arm pit and around the sides of the neck because these areas are *huge* heat sinks. Unless the body is spread eagle (or emulating DeVinci's Vitruvian Man, the apex of T-posing lol), air cannot reach these places, meaning sweat cannot evaporate and cool them. Instead, the arms would be down, trapping heat, which is especially bad because the body doesn't sweat properly during heatstroke. It's counterintuitive, I know, but this may be a sign of dehydration and the body not being able to move and replenish fluid resources fast enough. The groin also works as a heat sink zone, so applying cold towels to these areas might help too. Additionally, using cold towels on the neck cools the major blood vessels taking blood to and from the brain, which is very important when a person is experiencing their brain cooking. Not cooling these areas instead allows the heart to pump blood that has collected heat from all over the rest of the body, which can damage cells, nerves and more. The best results happen when a person can be cooled down slowly, giving their body time to adjust, but immersion in cool or cold water can effectively treat heatstroke in as little as 15 minutes *when done properly, aka, please save this technique for medical professions or when being instructed by medical professionals.*
Signs of Heat Exhaustion, which, if left untreated for an upwards of 30 minutes, can turn into heatstroke:
- a headache
- dizziness and confusion
- loss of appetite and feeling sick
- excessive sweating and pale, clammy skin
- cramps in the arms, legs and stomach
- fast breathing or pulse
- a high temperature of 38C or above
- being very thirsty
Signs of Heatstroke (which, if seen or noticed, do what you can to move the affected person to a cooler location immediately and do what you can to cool them down while also calling medical services):
- feeling unwell after 30 minutes of resting in a cool place and drinking plenty of water
- not sweating even while feeling too hot
- a high temperature of 40C or above
- fast breathing or shortness of breath
- feeling confused
- a fit (seizure)
- loss of consciousness
- not responsive
Always remember that heatstroke, if left unnoticed and untreated, can be very fatal, so keep and eye on yourselves and the people around you for signs and symptoms, everyone! Be safe and stay hydrated!
Feels like it would be easier to just put my friend in the sea (and keeping her head above water level if I'm feeling particularly jolly this day)
babs how long did it take to even write this comment or where did u find a place to copy and pasye it from oh my gosh😂
@@siegfriedmordrake3229 It honestly might be. You must also keep in mind that your friend is in a state of being severely hyperthermic, and that the water's temperature, *depending on your location, the day, the currents, etc.,* might be below a threshold where you can do this safely and avoid giving her something known as Cold Shock Syndrome. This normally occurs in very cold or freezing water, *but* it has been noted to occur in water as warm as 21-25C/69-77F (which might have been caused by trying to do your example). Any warmer than that and the water does virtually nothing effective in terms of heat dispersion. It depends on the state of a person (if they are normally a healthy and hearty person), if they have any pre-existing conditions or are prone to heart conditions (cardiovascular issues as a known killer during Cold Shock Syndrome even in people without pre-existing conditions or genetic family history), if you can avoid putting even more stress on the person's body, accidentally causing more damage, and the current temperature of the waters at your location. There's a reason vets recommend you never put ice in your dog's water on hot summer days.
Like I said, please don't submerge someone without either *some* amount of medical training, even just first aid, or being instructed by medical personnel. It's already advised just about everywhere that if you notice someone undergoing heatstroke, just call medical services, so you lose nothing by listening to instructions before trying a more extreme method on your own.
I had a heatstroke during school because nobody cared that I said I was showing signs of heat exhaustion. I wasn't allowed to go to the nurse or the bathroom (tiled, so it would be cooler) and they refused to open the windows. It was only after class ended and I blacked out trying to stand was I taken seriously.
Please, everyone everywhere, just take heat exhaustion seriously.
very comprehensive. thank you for this good advice. stay safe out there friends.
Yup to the lemon 🍋 juice ,my momma always told me growing up for my hair in the summer ☀️
Appreciate you Kris!!
Not only does Kris have to attempt these because we got to 50k likes, but she has to face her nightmare…. ❤️
BALLOOON TIMEEE
@@Judy_moody1 Lmao right, we surpassed 100k too🤗💕
Well in the present which is rn it’s not 50K likes but 179K likes
(I mean this in a friendly way)
@@Xx-Lunar-xX yeah when I was watching it we were at 169k so I’m saying not only have we gone past 50k but also 100k which means Kris has to face one of her nightmares, balloons.

The amount of dirty humor in this video was making me laugh so hard. Thank you Kris for making such amazing content. And thank you for always complimenting us at the start of every video. You're such a sweetheart and the world needs more people like you. :))
The bathing cap thing at 5:50 actually does work, it's how we used to color-code the swimming ability of kids in the pool at camp, so we had to put on a lot of caps very quickly.
9:47 I love the smell of dryer sheets. My friends know (and this is seriously not a joke, I really do this) if they need a dryer sheet or two they can just ask me and I’ll pull one out of my pocket. I’m seriously always carrying them around.
I love her compliments so much. Really hope we get to 50k likes. Thanks Kris for making our days way better!
With the snorkelling goggle hack, you don't need to burn it you just need a little bit of toothpaste and smear it onto the glass/plastic then wash it off in the water. I've used this for years and it works every time even the local marine reserve uses it.
...what does it do? Can't you just take off your goggles and dunk them under and then out them back on again? Does it make them fog proof?
@@itsnoprobllama5363 it makes it so there is no fog so you don't have to come up and take them off to make the fog go away, as that can be annoying.
but wouldnt the mint irritate youre eyes?
@@kaitlinmacleod3966 you wash it off after so it doesn't irritate your eyes.
@@tessaa8636 i get that bit but isnt there still just a like a bit that still irritates youre eyes? at least whenever ive done that the toothpaste never completely goes maybe im just doing it wrong?
I love how she got already 50k likes in like 5 hours. Can’t wait to see Kris try these 😂
It has 89k now
8:01 idk how tf you're gonna do this... fr grab all the phones and accs to like the damn video lmao I need to see kris in a giantass water balloon before I die🤣

@@polina_kkkk Oh!Thanks :]
I love how she always gives us compliments.
yes boys dont get enough compliment and it always makes me feel heppy

I actually can say that, while it takes longer (definitely not 5 minutes), the single large ice cube takes longer to melt compared to a bunch of tiny ice cubes. Also, some water bottle heads are too small to put ice cubes through (I have one, it’s annoying when I want cold water), so starting out with water, freezing it sideways so you can still fill it up while having the ice evenly distributed, is actually a cool hack
Yeah I tryed one and it took a day!!!!!
But it did work!!!😁
I love how Kris always compliments us as soon as the video start, never seen anyone on TH-cam be so thoughtful and do that😘❤️❤️❤️
Ya same she is amazing
The Click does it too! and he even goes into detail with names too
Ikr she is amazing,beautiful no homo,cute,caring,smart she is every nice word she is the best!!!!!!
SAMMMMEEEEEEEE
Uwu
kris lightens our days all the time 💕 whenever she posts it always makes me super happy, and her compliments are super kind and amazing!! Also she always makes me laugh! Thank you Kris!!
“I go straight into lobster mode” 😂😂😂😂
The Coke tab thing is pretty much the exact same thing my family has always done with jandals and bread tags!! It works (at least with bread tags), but not for long :)
Only needs to last long enough to get somewhere to get a new pair of pluggers
as an australian, i came here to say the same thing
Happy Birthday Kris!

thanks for complimenting us when we feel our worst Kris! every time you post a video you put a smile on my face, your super funny and i can’t wait for more content! ❤️
Regarding freezing half your water, it actually really helps. I do this when I go out on hot days. The water stays colder much longer than if you just use ice cubes. I tend to freeze 2/3 of the bottle though
If you're going to do all that, you could also bring something to protect the bottle from direct sunlight.
@@protorhinocerator142 'All that'? It's literally just putting your water bottle in the freezer the night before. Like, 30 seconds' work, max.
I usually put an old sock on the bottle. Keeps the sun's radiation away from the ice longer.
Wouldn't you actually lose more water that way though since ice expands as it freezes? Wouldn't more warm water be better for hydration than a lesser amount of colder water?
@@SpeedForce4525 On a really hot day, the cold water feels nicer. The whole point is that as the ice melts, you have more water to drink, and it's still cold.
I love how Kris always compliments us in the intro
9:09
this ice in the bottle trick I have used for over two decades... BUT you have to leave it on it's side when it freezes, that way it cools the entire bottle, otherwise, it only cools the bottom bit of water and the top stays warm. It'll last for hours like this (depending on how large the bottle is). And it's great for bottles that have small openings and you can't get ice into...
When i was younger I was obessed w survival videos, and the pants technique has saved several lives
Yes but the pants have to be like military or water proof/resistant
@@amandakolberg2419 Im pretty sure jeans should work
Let's give 100 K likes guys...... !!!
Kris is gonna mesmerize us with her 5 minute skills
❤❤❤Who else loves that Kris is the sweetest and prettiest person ever❤❤❤
Actually the head condom one works, me and all my siblings are on the swim team and dropping the swim cap on with water is something we all do. It actually works great
Thank you so much Kris I went threw a break up yesterday and your compliments always make me feel so much better, I love you and you videos! Have an amazing day Kris, you are amazing and SO PRETTY!!!
50 K likes?? you're making it too easy for us :P you're awesome kris, looking forward to you trying these out hehe- honestly you just have this calming vibe that nowadays i find i can't go on without.. sometimes i watch your old videos when I'm down and it just cheers me right up?? thanks for everything
Y not watch new vids
@Dev Mae I mean if she hasn't posted on a particular day then I watch her old vids.. Especially the character ones, always manage to cheer me up
omg kris you are so funny the scenario with the "inflatable save me from drowning pants" just hilarious🤣🤣🤣🤣 I like watching 5minute crafts because its both dumb and funny and watching with you and your reactions just makes my day. your awesome btw. thanks for doing these do more please.
Just a small fyi, the pants thing actually works. Not super long, so you'll have to do it again after a while, and obviously not as well as a life jacket, but it does work.
Complimenting Kris time: Girl who told you that you could look this GORGEOUS in the morning?!
6:36 as a scuba diver, I can confirm that, that is how we prep our masks for use after newly buying them. You do this every maybe 5-6 months. Before you get in the water though, you should use a defog spray or spit. 😁
Every diver I know just uses spit every time
Baby soap, small amount! or just have a dilute bucket of it and splash the goggles in it.
I spit on it
kris always makes me laugh whether it's this, collabing, skits, or her compliments, she's beautiful, and makes me laugh every day
Happy Birthday Kris!

Okay so the tennis ball hack to clean up body oil in the pool is actually the same idea used by a foundation called Matter of Trust, where they use leftover hair donated from salons and individuals and they use the hair donated to create mats that they use to clean up oil spills. It works so well because human hair absorbs hair like crazy and it’s way better for the environment than other tools used to clean up oil spills because the hair mats don’t have plastics or other synthetic materials.
I love how Kris compliments her fans , absolutely love her videos.
Me to 😊
Meet girly
As a swimmer, the cap hack does work.
3:45 hey Kris Ik you probably won't see this 😂 but you can also use the plastic bread bag thing. ( the plastic bit that holds bread bags shut) its easier to attach.
She saw it!
5:55
Kris: “I know that doesn’t work”
Me during a water polo practice watching my friends doing it for shits and giggles and it actually working.
For real I'm just a swimmer but we do this all the time
12:59 you can literally buy a face sunscreen stick for $2
10:33"ahhhh" 😂😂
Chris is at this point one of the only people keeping me going. Thx for being here and making us feel better chris😭❤️🔥
Kris 👀👀👀
4:25 this is actually something taught in the military. I learned this back in JROTC
Kris we love you, you always make us smile and your compliments make our days! You are also looking beautiful today right guys?? ❤️
Right!
@Steven he 🅥 shut up Steven He
The aloe plant is super helpful. Living in Texas, my grandma legit had aloe plants out back and squeezed the goo out of the plants and slapped it on my dad’s sunburns when he was growing up. No fancy prep - just squeeze it right on
4:54 *me in the bathtub as a child for no reason*
I am going through a really tough time right now, but every time Kris posts a new video she makes me instantly happy and it’s so nice to have a nice good laugh twice a week. ❤️❤️
As an Australian who’s always at the beach, freezing your water bottle lasts longer because the ice is bigger and reaches more surface area while still allowing for more water 👍
Hello fellow Aussie I am also from Australia 🇦🇺
Question: why can't i just freeze my entire bottle of water? I always do that... and the heat melts away the ice... and i am left with cool water
@nevermor78 jesus you guys have 45 degrees? And i thought i was in hell
@@homosapien5684 why
Jeez, im in Victoria, Australia and i find 30 degrees hell, guess i got lucky in the Aussie placement department 😂
i'm waiting for the balloon kris🤣❤️
I love how you always compliment us... lol. and aloe really does help. mu family has been using this trick longer than five-minute crafts have been a thing. when we go to the beach i actually use aloe soap so i dont have to bother with the sun. and the Casper or lobster is soooooo true!
The fitted bedsheets hack is actually really useful for when you have babies who are just starting to crawl, keeps them contained and still gives them space to explore a bit without getting sand in their faces
Meanwhile, people like me just let their toddlers wander in the sand until they're part of the beach themselves 🤣
0:25 was not expecting that and my volume was up almost all the way that hurt my ear drums and scared my God dame life lol
To answer Kris' question on Aloe Vera,
Yes, you can eat Aloe Vera, and it is good for health. However, be warned that it is incredibly bitter, and it tends to activate a gag reflex.
I know this because my dad forces me to eat it sometimes.
They have drinks now with aloe vera chunks in them and you just swallow them, you don't even taste the bitterness. I love them actually
9:56 I would most likely pick up the tennis ball and "whooo hooo" my lucky day!!! Lmao
Thank you so much for complimenting us Kris, it's sad that we can never have the words the express just how amazing you are
5:03 I can't breathe 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The swim cap hack where you fill it with water and then drop it does actually work. You just need the perfect angle to drop it from. And a friend.
Can't fully describe how wonderful the world is for having Kris in it. Thanks as always you've made me smile.
I love how positive she is even if she doesn’t feel good 😊
You and your videos never fail to make me laugh. Even when I don’t feel like smiling. Thank you for just being you. ❤️💕
5:39 you really made me look that up lmao
What'd you find? 😏😂
Kris, you never fail to make me laugh and smile! Ilysm ! Keep up the good work!
Kris is amazing and makes me feel so good about myself every time she compliments us, I appreciate it so much!
I love Kris, shes so hilarious and sweet 😊 if im ever feeling down i just binge watch her videos 😅
