This worked PERFECT!!! After trying sticks, the air compressor, the water hose and trying to take the handle apart... my last resort was TH-cam and I found this! Sock was out in a matter of seconds 👍👍👍
You sir are a genius. Tried to push the sock thru with a fishing rod, and then tried to rinse it out with a water hose. Finally, I taped a screw to a straightened metal clothes hanger & it worked. Thank you.
I was just about ready to spend a hundred Dollars on a replacement hose because I could not get the obstruction out but I decided that the last minute before purchasing online to see if there was a video out there and sure enough your video had the solution. I did not have a sock but there was so much debris it might as well have been a sock So I taped to screw on the end of a broom handle and it actually got the debris out. Thank you so very much you save me a lot of money today I app say that.
This method is brilliant! Like all others, was having a heck of a time trying to get the hose unblocked, saw your video and voila! Works, thanks for posting
After nearly two hours of frustration and putting the vacuum away i thought id look on youtube, seen this and worked 1st time brilliant idea fella, thankyou very much!!!
Like everyone else I usually just reverse the hose or use a stick. I got the handle screws out but I didn't want to break the fragile plastic ring. Your method works wonderfully so I thank you, good sir.
I dismantled my shark vacuum head it was tricky but managed to get it all apart. I used a screw like you didn’t the end of a screw driver and bingo! Thank you so much! Saved me buying a new hose as I was about to give up on it!
Genius!!!!!! Thank you!!! I needed this😊 first time. Screw stayed in with the sock. Laughed my gut off. Second time, used electrical tape to hold the screw then a little gorilla glue duct tape to hold the screw on the rod. Came out like a champ!!!!
You are a genius…….. it worked, that method removed pair of knickers that were clogging up the tube. Thank you so much. My husband says you are a genius. It’s the screw idea that made it.👍👏👏👏
Brilliant idea,. I first tried with the bent end of a coat hanger, but it kept straightening out. Your idea worked first go, although I used a 5/16th drill bit. My mind's boggling at how useful this will be for all kinds of jammed up stuff.
This was perfect man. I stuck some all thread in the hose to try this but attaching the screw was the key. I ended up needing to hold the hose in the air and let gravity help some too. You are a genius.
Had this problem myself your little invention help me get out a stuck pair of nickers from the hose after I have been trying for 2 hours with various other Things lol thank you
Just wanted to let you know that your video just helped me out! I was trying to get that damn sock out for weeks now. Nothing worked until I saw this video! Then the sock was out in less than a minute! Thanks for your help
Wow, was going at it with a stick and everything i though off, watched this video and went out a lnd cut my neighbors bicycle break wire and that worked perfectly. Got it out in less then 2 minutes with that gettho fix :)
Don’t know if you will see this but my shark is blocked with allsorts at the bend. I need to make something like what you have done. What is it exactly that you used as I don’t have anything long enough.
One of the best MF YT videos out there. THANK YOU! Why TF would Shark make that like that? Spent 1hr+ trying to get my daughter's sock out... Took me less than a minute with this life hack! Thank you! 🙌🏾
I used a 15 inch 10mm drill bill in a cordless drill on slow.... started to tighten up and pulled the drill out slowly... your vid gave me the idea, struggled for an hour... did it in 5 seconds in the end...
this worked perfectly. I tried absolutely everything and thought I was going to have to cut the hose open and then tape it. The sock was so wedged it would not move even a tiny bit. I tried a coat hanger with a hook on the end, managed to hook the sock but when I tried pulling it out it pulled through the sock and poked through the hose 😖 I duct-taped a screw to the end of the wire hanger, pushed down while twisting it a few times once i felt it hit the sock, and pulled it out with ease
Bloody genius mate… i was getting some right stick after the mrs hoovered up one of my socks… it was my fault apparently haha … anyway you saved the day, thanks for the genius idea!!
Legend! I tried chopsticks, broom handle, curtain pole. Curtain pole worked best so found a nail in the shed and taped it on. Worked a treat. No sock though, mine was just dog hair... it got wedged in by a small piece of card and a twig!
Thank you thank you! My sister said to try a broom stick, when calling her to see if she had a wire hanger (for the hanger idea) but I already tried a dowel and that made it worse. The screw taped to the end of the broomstick worked. Had to try a few times, my sock was really stuck tight, from trying to get it out other ways. I didn't ruin my sock either. Appreciate you getting right to the point too.
Have the pink Henrietta hoover, tried it with sweeping brush but pipe was too long so called to a neighbour, he had wire out the back and that worked. Thanks though for your idea🙏🏻
It's insane how these incidents can turn us into a McGyver! On that note, have you ever considered a career in multi-level marketing? I can see a Seen It On TV commercial with this in the near future!
This worked PERFECT!!! After trying sticks, the air compressor, the water hose and trying to take the handle apart... my last resort was TH-cam and I found this! Sock was out in a matter of seconds 👍👍👍

You sir are a genius. Tried to push the sock thru with a fishing rod, and then tried to rinse it out with a water hose. Finally, I taped a screw to a straightened metal clothes hanger & it worked. Thank you.
A big thank you! Around an hour torment, watched your video, got the idea and the sock is out in a sec with a drain cleaner.
Glad it helped u 😊
I used this vid then saw your comment and the drain cleaner and twisting worked!!!! Thankyou both!!!!!!!🎉

Don’t know if you will see this but my shark is blocked with allsorts at the bend. I need to make something like what you have done. What is it exactly that you used as I don’t have anything long enough.
Hi , something like a cane or even a broom handle and tape a long screw on the end 👍🏻
Genius! This video saved me and my vacuum 😅
Glad I could help! 👍🏻😊
Your a life saver ,brilliant tip thsnks
Glad it helped u
A screw on some bamboo did the trick after hours trying to get the bloody sock out. I even connected another hoover to it. Thanks for the tip!
Another thing that works is those plastic drainer snakes from any dollar store. Just twist it around a little. Worked like a charm.
