That was scary. I'm not one to scold. But damn Ollie, when you saw the acid, you should have got goggles. I mean, i know your job "goes to shit" every day. But it would go "down the toilet" if you got blinded. I know youre a get it done kinda guy. But please take a minute to think over situations before diving in. We love you. Be careful.
I actually worked for the parent company of that acid manufacturer. They are in the states but have a subsidiary in Sidney. The formula for that product, Mo-Flo, used to be 99% Sulfuric Acid and a 1% odor cap. It was discontinued in the US 10 years ago.
I've been watching for a couple of years and this is the first time I've been seriously concerned about your safety. I'm sure you learned a few lessons for the future. You're an awesome man and I'd hate to see anything happen to you. Cheers from Minnesota in the states!
When I worked in apartment maintenance and I had to install or reset a toilet, we'd caulk the base to the floor. It was vinyl caulk and you used a wet finger to smooth it. Guess where the water came from to wet my finger? Toilet. Of course, I restored and cleaned everything in the apartment including the dunny so I knew it was safe
A Pantsless Ollie running loose in Sydney? This video is the very definition of dropping acid. Man what a view from up top there. Ollie worked so hard, he blew his eyes and pants out on that job. RESPECT.
@@seanh4841 That's gotta be dangerous sometimes, because Ollie has to go into jobs others have been in, and not know they were in there or what they did. Just...be careful out there, Ollie & Friends. You never really know.
From my chemistry book "Copper reacts with hot and concentrated sulphuric acid to form copper sulphate, sulphur dioxide gas and water." "Sulphur dioxide can cause respiratory problems such as bronchitis, and can irritate your nose, throat and lungs." Ollie - you be careful now!
and it's the Sulphure Dioxide which redissolves in the moisture in the lungs, throat, eyes etc, to form another acid which literally burns the linings in the body Goodness knows what lunatic thought it was a good idea to pour that stuff into a blocked drain that was leaking over the floor - even diluted it wouldn't do the expensive carpet any good, nor any drips on the stainless sink - never mind anything going into the between floor spaces in a high rise block!
Your professionalism never ceases to amaze me, I’m sure there’s others that would consider it half draining away good enough, that and the fact that you always clean up after yourself on all the jobs speaks volumes of your level of professionalism. I also don’t know how I stumbled across your channel but it’s just the thing to wind down to after a days work !! Keep up the awesome work mate !!
@@DrainAddict Ollie I love your channel but why would you kneel in liquid with acid in it? Why would you go anywhere near the pipe with bare arms, and without a face shield or at least glasses?? I dont understand why you would take that risk?. You really should go to the eye doctor to make sure theres no damage. By the way kneeling on hard surfaces every day can damage your knees. Why not get some knee pads. or you can buy a workers padded kneeling frame, then you dont have to kneel in sewerage or hard surfaces everyday.? I love your work but this video was cringe.
@@jasonrichardson1999 He carries heaps of stuff, and this job cost him a $100 pair of overalls and almost blinded him. If I was his wife I would give Ollie a serious talking to.
I remember a few years ago considering one of those shoe boxes. The reason I considered it was because I couldn't find another place (rental crisis). The shoe box (actually more like 3/4 of a shoe box as the room was more a triangle *single bed in the corner , small tv and that's about it*). Of course it was well overpriced as well. I would have had to put everything in storage and downgraded my bed. Thankfully I didn't.
Why any person, yet alone a plumber leave a job site with such potential danger in it for anyone else coming to service it or even be in its proximity is beyond me. Glad your safe.
I'm just glad you are able to see beautiful Sydney's skyline once again. I can't say much about the pants, but I'm sure some corn will get Ratty on his feet in no time! Be safe Ollie 🙏
I remember clearing a salon drain years ago as a young plumber on there hair washer basin. They had put acid down the drain and it melted through the flexible crappy waste connection and poured onto the floor. When I came they didn't tell me it was acid and I only realised when I was laid in it thinking it was water until it soaked into my t shirt and started to burn me! They then said "oh BTW that's acid your now soaked in"
With the amount of acid he was dealing with, a box of bicarb would be needed. I would have dumped half a box of the stuff down the drain to save the pipes and the equipment. Running water isn't enough to get rid of all of that concentrated acid.
You'd end up with carpal tunnel pumping that spray bottle before dilute sodium bi-carb would neutralize concentrated sulfuric acid. You'd be better off just dumping a box on it.
Hey drain addict, when I was coming to Sydney with my dad a few hours ago, my dad said, Oh it’s the drain Guy from TH-cam, we saw ur DrainGo van! My dad so happy!
Here in the states we can use lye (sodium hydroxide) as a drain cleaner. It's basic instead of acidic. It tends to work pretty well unless the blockage is real bad (or something it can't dissolve). I've used it a number of times to clear drain blockages in my house, including once for a main line clog (poured it directly down the main stack vent on the roof).
OMG! How scary! I'm joining with the others and saying what a professional you are to continue after getting acid splashed literally in your face!!! I am glad that God was watching over you and that you are ok and able to go home to your family at the end of your day safe! Thank you for the video. Blessings!
Just thinking of you sharing that beautiful view with us and then the acid that could destroy your vision. Be careful and thank God for being with you!

This could have been very bad for you Ollie ,Safety glasses Ollie especially when you knew they put sulfuric acid in the drain you really should be more careful ,that was a cleave trick of removing the chain and just using the cutter to remove the junk in the line one of the contractors left behind my guess the tapers and plasterers I hated that when they did that in the resort I worked at, I'm so happy the rat survived the Acid fumes 🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 All Good Ollie ,I never saw a 13 floor in a American Building they skip the number 13 ,and go from 12 to 14
Wow Ollie , you should be wearing a respirator if you are near Sulphuric Acid ... As a Metal Polisher we used to use pure Sulphuric to make Aluminuim Bullbar's dull so they didn't shine like a mirror , other than that we made them shine like a good mirror , but while we used ACID we ' Alway's ' had a respirator over our nose & mouth as well as Safety Glasses to protect our eyes , in Hot or Cold Weather or confined places ....
What a beautiful city Sydney! Thank you for sharing. I admire how you take a little time to enjoy something during your work day. I wish that I’d been like that when I was working. I hope that your eyes are in top shape after this. Enjoy your videos very much. Thanks.
So thankful you weren't blinded Ollie! Thank you for doing what you do! I hope you charged them extra for the danger involved, and I hope Ratty made a full recovery! ❤
I thought Olli had changed careers and became a real estate agent 😃 The acid destroyed your pants and almost cost you your eyesight but the blockage didn't do it, that's why you need the best drain cleaner in Sydney 🤩
Makes you appreciate the many blessings of good health when you can walk away fairly unscathed from danger as we seen here. I bet looking out at that wonderful skyline after the near miss made it even more beautiful! We live and we learn in the crucible of this classroom we call life! Glad you are OK, Ollie! Ratty just needs some fresh oxygen outside to revive! ✝🐀
Thanks for the great view of Sydney, I am glad you are still able to see it after the acid splashed in your face. Great job clearing the blockage and clearing the acid for the new tenants arriving in the pm !
Whoever used that acid, surely didn't know what they were doing & you, Ollie, bore the results of that mistake. Fortunately you had the good Lord looking out for you. God bless you & your family & be careful out there.
Ohhh i know that feeling a man it sucks hard core. I m an automove mechanic & have gotten battery acid on my face & in my eye plus carb & choke ckeaner & brake kleen. The acid u can at least wash off but the carb & brake kkeen only go away when it evaporates try keeping ur eye held open till it evaps. I keep baking soda around just for dealing with acid burns & also good for stopping it eating ur cloths great vid Ollie keep it going so close to a g my man 😂
I hope you charged a least triple on that one! The acid, long walk with all the security and no jetter was extra challenging. At least the view you showed was really cool. Glad you’re ok after that acid man!
Wow! It’s a wonder you didn’t burn your skin with so much of it getting on your clothes! I hope your eyes are still ok and you don’t have any lasting effects. Take care and stay safe👍🇨🇦
Hey there Ollie, That was an amazing job you did mate. You are very professional in how you work. Glad a basin was close by when that wood fell, where the acid leaked. You could get to the water fast! I do agree with what you said about acid on the 16th floor. I'm no plumber by a long shot, but common sense tells me acid in a pipe 16 floors up is a no-go. Glad you got it all sorted. Wow at your pants the next day. That stuff is wickedly strong. Take care, mate. Oh yes... wow Sydney is a beautiful city, thanks for showing us the view.

Glad you didn't burn your eyes. I can't believe they left the acid like that. Not good. Beautiful city. Nice view. Be safe sir

My heart skipped a beat when i saw the smoke. That strong can burn your lungs or collapse them. Dangerous in a confined space. Not to mention making your able brittle. You did a awesome job. Glad you didn't burn your eyes. I can't believe they left the acid like that. Not good. Beautiful city. Nice view. Be safe sir
Just stopping what I'm doing.... Play the video. 😀
Just finished watching.... Glad you're ok Ollie, that was close.
Every time I hear Sydney I think, “P. Sherman, 42 Wallabee Way, Sydney.” I wrote this seconds before seeing you get hit in the face. Damn!
