that last use is the best! it's like the paper clip was built for that purpose!
What does ikr mean
I know right
i'm 4 years late, but that was the joke...
Nice video. You mentioned floating a magnetized piece of paper clip on a leaf will find "True North". It finds "Magnetic North". In New England, it makes over 15° difference.
In New Zealand, it points to NNE, in the South east Pacific, it points East!
You can probably travel through time using a paper clip, duct tape and paracord!
FlyTour69 You're going to need a lot of duct tape.
+FlyTour69 you forgot fuel - WD40
dont forget the delorian
lol
And some zipties
Dear sootch you said that the compass would find true north when it will actually will find magnetic north and this is very important because the angle between true north and magnetic north increases the further north you go and this could get one into a worse perdicament in a survival situation and this angle must be taken into great consideration for us viewers in Alaska
Thank you for your time, Riley
Next time I find a paper clip in school, instead of bending it every possible way then pinging it across the class when the teacher isn't looking, I might try one of these.
+RossB ROFLOL that is what my youngest son did during most of his class time
Same I’ll definitely try some of these in class
How did it all go? i hope well
THE LAST ONE OMFG THAT'S INSANE
This is what I get reading the comments early.
+Samad Savage ?
wow. with the last one, this man can Win a prise.
I used paper clips to hang shower curtains on a curtain rod. Worked just fine.
N I C E
You had some really innovative ideas for the paper clip, thank you! Some I never had thought of, some I already use, besides holding sheets of paper together. Keep the ideas coming, thanks!
Great tips Sootch! I sure am glad you called them "Clips" and not "Magazines"! Lol
this video saved my life, I had SO many paperclips lying around b4 this video, but now they are all being put to work! This video saved my marriage! I love you SensiblePrepper! thank you!
Great tips, thank you. I also keep wire clothes hangers around as the wire is stronger.
When I was teaching, it seems like I was using paper clips for everything but clipping papers! They are great for hanging things and holding items (besides paper) together. I always have an ample supply in my office.
One idea that popped into my mind, and could actually be a life saver...The simple fish hook
Good info! I have an overwhelming supply of paper clips :)
The mini screwdriver for glasses works great !
you can use it as improvised fishing hook
+Sral Neman Stewie? You're my favorite paperclip Nazi. lol
C. Jones :)
Sral Neman lol thanks, I already have my hooks and line.
Awesome dude. Love thinking outside of the box stuff. I became a master of it. Mostly because for most of my life I could not afford the box.
what I find most inspiring in these videos you produce is the overall emphasis on making do with what you have. The mind is the greatest survival tool. Thanks for your reminding us of this. Long live the Republic and long live Turtle Island.
Paper clip work great for when the joint you may be smoking gets small..... or so I've heard.
great for cleaning pipes and bongs too :)
I would've never guessed a paper clip can make life so much easier.
I knew most of those but I love the webcam blocker, phone stand, needle, n the handy hooks made from them!
I think the last use is the most innovative of all of them
Thought for sure you would do a fishing hook!
The wire is to weak
Really enjoy your channel. Well thought out and presented. Thanks
you can reset electronic devices too - correct?
+tony salimbene yeah
Correct
Paper clips are wonderful, they hold stacks of paper together, or anything else, they hold things together.
Boy, depending on the creativity, the clip has a thousand and one uses. Congratulations on video.
Thanks for the tips!
AWESOME.. THE POWER OF CREATIVITY... BE STRONG AND GOOD COURAGE.. STEP OUTSIDE OF THE BOAT.
SAFETY CLIP....awesome...love the improvied compass- everyone should be taught that one!
That webcam blocker was brilliant.
I love tje blurbs at the end!
That paper clip hook thing was awesome, thanks for uploading the video🙂
with rolls of tape I usually take the last ½ inch or so and fold on itself with the nonsticky side out. Easy to find and you have a Little pulltab to get some the next time because some tape can be a pain to get a hold of.
The paper magazine iPhone stand is a cool idea :)
Great ideas! It's pure "American Ingenuity"....
I love the needle and the safety clip the most. Great vid.
Or carry a swisscard in your wallet if u want a needle on hand
Mc-Sootch-er!
I was expecting to see: "...and next, I'll show you how to make a claymor with a paperclip, a sheet of paper and some bubble gum...."
Great video!
Keep 'em comin'!
God bless YOU!
and Long Live the Republic!
Geat video, Don.
The next video I would like to see is you explaining and demonstrating what you would do within the first 24 hours of a SHTF/WROL scenario. IE. What you would gather/pull out of storage first, plans you would put into effect, and ect.
I have nearly 10lbs of paper clips that my work was going to throw out. Weekend here I come!
great tips....
nice backpack... :)
i have paper clips and rubber bands and i have so much cables so the cable trick was awesome. IT WORKED!!
The micro screwdriver tip is invaluable when you need one ASAP! You don't always have this tool, but you can always find a paperclip and a hammer! That's borderline genius!
the home made magnet blew my mind and the duct tape finder and phone stand was very creative!
Fishing hook was the next logical step after you made needle and thread, love the extra security for fanny pack / any pack Tip, u are in my top 5 favorite TH-cam'ers fo sure, thanks bro
To magnetize, strike metal 50-100 times to the point
^reminder to myself😅😅 thank u so much for the video!!
I really love these videos you do, so many things with everyday items that not a lot of people would have thought about. Thanks Sootch! "Be strong, be of good courage, God Bless America, and long live the Republic"
We use to tie rubberband to paperclips in school & use them as improvised weapons to pop people. The paperclip added a little extra thump. Good times.
Another great video! Thanks for your time.
Thanks for sharing. Left a 👍
Congratulations! great imagination !! Very good!!! I've never seen anything like it !!!
Much more interesting than your other video showing how to carry guns in a church... Thanks for the ideas.
Woah woah woah!!! Paper clip for paper?! This is madness!!!
I used paper clips and a pvc pipe to hang a small curtain. :) Love paper clips.
Nicely done,I like when you can take common,everyday items and use them creatively.
Ya learn something everyday... I just learned a bunch! Thanks for sharing!
Love this and all the other ideas in the comments below. Blessings
Great vid.! Got some great ideas who knew such a simple item could be that useful. Thanks for sharing!
Great video! Fishing hook was what first came to my mind! Love the phone stand
Good one Sootch!!!!
I like the safety pin part, you should make a how to video on that.
You can also use it to make a fish hook.
I used some split key rings for my old luggage zippers. Thanks for the ideas.
Super Presentation!!!
great ideas, placing a batch in my survival bag
thanks
Great tips ! Reminds me of good ol' scout camps 🤠
I love these videos! Big fan stooch!
Webcam hack ....Brilliant
Great Vid but I would add the grasshopper toy - simply bend the two ends to touch and it makes a toy the kids love to play. Field goals pop it through your friends hands etc...
Some people have commented that you have a lot of non survival ideas. One rebuttal to this is that you are giving people ways to approach a normal level of convenience if you were in a crazy grid down scenario. You are scavenging and you find some normal item. Paper clips. What can you do with these to make your home base more livable? How can you use the things other people pass by to make yourself prepared for different situations? Fishing hooks, usable storage, repairing broken items, this is all very important to you zombie apocalypse preppers....
some neat ideas, and well presented, thanks
Thanks for sharing this info! God bless America!
+Andy Mueller Why are you saying God bless America ? This is abot paperclips lol.
Why not?
This is just brilliant. Thanks so much.
Could someone maybe tell me if that particular hand drill is sold on amazon? Does anyone know its brand/model?
Made a sewing needle out of one. Suffers from the obvious tendency to bend but works in a pinch.
Just put a few in my bag, thanks for sharing 👍
Really cool! Thanks for sharing.
makes great jewelry pieces and fish hooks☺
The computer cable older was a bit of a stretch. Couldn't you have just used the rubber band itself? I thought you would for sure do a fishing hook.
loved this video! short SWEET n jam packed with awesome ideas!!! thanks ..God bless
You have such imagination, SensiblePrepper. Thanks
I use those little plastic tab like things on bread bags for tape. As for paper clips, I use them to hang notions off my racks in my sewing room. Woll be trying some of yours hacks. Thanks and will be subscribing now.
Great thinking out of the box - thanks for the ideas
I've watched two of your videos and found them to be well done. And I'll be watching more. Take care and Thank you! Steve
i've noticed like most everything else today paper clips are made of cheaper materials and break instantly when bent . I know it makes me sound old but back in the good ol'days u could pull a chevy block out with a paper clip
Excellent Video!!!
Paperclips are love...Paperclips are life
Your videos are quite helpful. Now let me share what I am using to assist making some of these projects with paper clips. If you take the opener that you will find on a can of spam, a paper clip will slide into the opening and you can bend the paper clip very easily. It can give a sharp even bend or a curl with ease. I keep one on my key chain to help with different things. Odd things with odd uses. :-)
love this video found the cord and Hercules hook most usefull
Great too for mylar emergency shelter or any oppen at both ends. On one end pull both sides togther and close with paper clips makes it even warmer closed off bkth ends
thanks. was entertaining...missed one thing though...grasshopper. a morale booster for grid-down...lol
Great ideas. Thanks
Here are 3 more uses for paper clip.
1. Can be used to either short circuit a fuse or to connect but make sure electricity is off.
2. Can be used to strength a signal on a tv if you take a paperclip and make a triangle out of it. Works best with 90s tvs.
3. Can be used to shimmy handcuffs.
great video ... some really clever uses there,
think i need to add a few to my kit/keyring
Love your videos man. Ive learned a lot of nifty stuff from your channel
Thank you so much sir! I'm a novice peeper and DIY-er and this helped a lot. So again I thank you +SensiblePrepper
Great!!!! Thank you!
Thank you so much you saved my life from doing this paper clip video
We like your videos here in Toronto
My hair cord broke in the shower. I did not have a spare one... After watching this video I always carry a couple of extra paper clips with me. A stretched out clip worked just fine as a temporary hair cord replacement. :-)
had some fun w/ this vid & trying em out, now back to studing for a test
A lot of really great ideas!
