So apparently the phenomenon is called 'Tangible Accomplishment'. Lots of people work in desk jobs where they never see anything actually get finished, never see anything from start to end. Vid's like Drain Addict, Mustie, Big Clive, Soth Main Auto etc., show people starting a job, getting through the difficult bit, and finishing it. I find it massively relaxing watching someone start a difficult job and finish it. I'm going to Sydney in September. I expect this chap will be on 150,000 subscribers by then and will have retired. If he's not I'm going to ask to spend some time with him. Solid, professional tradesman. The best to Drain Addict!
Cool thanks for the information. I knew there had to be a name for being drawn to these types of videos. I asked if there was a name and low and behold an answer. 👍🤗😊 Tangible Accomplishment!
Oh come on man not only what plumbers have to deal with but this is in Australia for God's sake. This man had to crawl under somebody's house in Australia where everything is venomous. This guy is a straight-up hero.
Clay pipe doesn't have any ductility like PVC does, any tiny amount of soil shifting will destroy them. In this case, it looks like the leaking water softened the soil around the clay pipe and caused the elbow piece to get loose and fall over once it wasn't supported by the incoming pipe anymore. That concrete plug made it top heavy so it just fell over.
If that is the amount of grease in the pipes, their cardiologist is going to be in for a treat. Wonder if he can borrow some of the Drain Addict's tools to unclog their arteries.
Nah, it's just in order for them to qualify, they have to get an up close and personal power wash/shower before Ollie washes down the brick... (after all, after blasting the Idiot Flushers, he now needs to hose all the blood and tissue off the walkways before the Police show up)...
Okay I just stumbled across this channel yesterday and I'm absolutely loving it so far. I'm not a plumber but it's so satisfying and disgusting to watch you clean out drains.
yeah.. the mess he leaves behind is mindblowing... if i left a customer like that... my boss would get a phone call.. The funny thing is, if he would have been jetting from the 2:nd manhole problem solved.. But what do i know...
We have inspection openings in the basement for such cleaning purposes. Something tells me that the modern "water-saving" devices such as dishwashers are the main reason for such fat deposits in the pipes. I also found toilet flush valves better than the economical flushing box. I wash the dishes by hand. Coarse scraps of food sticking to the plate end up in the garbage before I start to wash it off.
C'mon, people. You never dump grease, fat, or oil down a drain or toilet. We use the plastic containers that Folger's coffee comes in. They are 2lb. or 3lb. in size. Or old spaghetti sauce jars. Anything will do except the sink or toilet. Save yourself grief, stink, a royal mess, and money.
BUCK EVERYTHING! Seems to me it would have been a lot easier (having already picked up the large chunks) to blast everything back into the pit, rather than out onto the path, in the first place!
I am SO with you on this one. Joints on clay tiles unsealed. Open sanitary waste air gaps at grade -- in open yard spaces. Stepwise down drains with multiple clean outs. And what's with these drain pits in the ground with OPEN flow channels for sanitary waste from the house? I have two threaded/sealed clean outs in my CLOSED main waste to the street. IDK.
I agree with Nigel I had no idea what you plumbers had to go through to get your jobs done!!! The chunks of grease looks like rocks!! I heard about this here in New York they found a grease Berg they called it gross!!!
Which building is it? A school where young women are also taught? Hardly anyone knows how big tampons / sanitary napkins get when they are in the water for a long time. The smallest type of tampon becomes as thick as large bananas.
Is that normal for the pipe to just tip over like that? And why does it look like a clay pot for plants? Oh wait it doesn't look like a plant pot when they went in to fix it I could see it better.
uhm, they didnt even like replace those pipes or some shit. isnt the pipe broken, leaks under the clay pot thing??? what if its not centered in the pipe?
Hello everybody. I'm Torsten and I'm from Germany. I know your videos all and honestly, I do not want to trade with you. Ok in winter but in summer no thanks. This stench, I would have given myself long ago. Great respect for you that concerns her so easy. 👏👏💪💪👍👍
Since you kneel down in all this muck. Do you hose down your clothes after each job or just let it be for the day and clean it all off after the workday is done?
Nope nope nope I soooo could not go under any house for any job yep hello haven’t you seen the wizard of oz the house fell on her.. I don’t want no house to fall on me Lmao 😜 😂 🤣
What air conditioning company puts condenser units so close together , underneath a porch ? It would seem like the units would be put under enormous stress.
I CAN EXCUSE A CHILD PUTTING A TOY IN THE TOILET, BUT THIS IS PLAIN LAZINESS NOT TO PUT IT INTO A JAR, OR CAN, MY FATHER TAUGHT ME AROUND 4-5 TO PUT IT IN A SEPARATE CONTAINER THEN INTO TRASH, TRASH, TRASH...*

so its big boy stuff
Thanks for all your support Gavin Critchley! Happy to have a cold beer with you on your trip to Sydney 🤠🍺
Tangible Accomplishment would be a good name for a channel

@@DrainAddict I'm there for the Marathon in September. I'll drop you a line nearer the date.
I never really thought about what plumbers had to do to earn a paycheck until I started watching this channel. Much respect.
Oh come on man not only what plumbers have to deal with but this is in Australia for God's sake. This man had to crawl under somebody's house in Australia where everything is venomous. This guy is a straight-up hero.
Ollie is an Assault Plumber. A specialized breed.
It's a shitty job
Thanks for the video. Thanks for also showing the clean up at the end and pressure washing.
WHO WOULD WIN
a highly engineered piece of piping
OR
one greasy boi
Just when I thought you couldn’t get better, you show a pipe repair... Sir, you are so awesome!!!
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think a pipe turning over so easily like that is a very bad sign
Clay pipe doesn't have any ductility like PVC does, any tiny amount of soil shifting will destroy them.

@@GGigabiteM right on
It will be connected using a push fit coupling that allows expansion without damaging the joint.....👍
Discovered your channel last night here in England! Love it. You cause absolute carnage unblocking these drains! Absolute legend.👍
Im from Kent dean
Casually sawing through a pipe and going straight to work... Absolute Mad Lad!😁
These vids are the HIGHLIGHT of my day.
If that is the amount of grease in the pipes, their cardiologist is going to be in for a treat. Wonder if he can borrow some of the Drain Addict's tools to unclog their arteries.
We have our own version lol
Fat dos not clog arteries its to much sugar in diet causes bad ldl tearing the artery wall causing plague to build up. Sugar is evil fat is good.
Grease pourers and wet wipe flushers should get an immediate disqualification for the free wash down service!
Keeps Ollie in business though. : )
Nah, it's just in order for them to qualify, they have to get an up close and personal power wash/shower before Ollie washes down the brick...

Amazing!!! I love watching your videos. Congratulations you are being an inspiration to me.
11:16 That mat has been in our family for eight generations & within eleven minutes of you being here ...
dupe you lol
They'll have to live with that Beef Stroganoff smell coming from under the house for a while lol.
Its not that Bad
yeah.. the mess he leaves behind is mindblowing... if i left a customer like that... my boss would get a phone call..
The funny thing is, if he would have been jetting from the 2:nd manhole problem solved.. But what do i know...
I dont think he saw it initially.
thats your opinion. judging by privious clips he went for it cowboy style.. well it sure is entertaining anyhow..
Maybe you should start a youtube channel and we can see how you do it.
Even the experts can make mistakes !!
Cheers from Beaminster Dorset UK
Professional work you've done cleaning after the job!
Swimming pool, but no drain on that path! Great job
A crawl space for you creepy crawlers. Got to love it 🌸🌼🌸

After watching a few of these videos I now know to never, ever pour cooking grease or oil down the drain.
Why ppl do it is strange. Everyone knows that oil and water dont mix.
I told my wife I would come in for dinner after watching this. I think I lied
Congrats on 50K subscribers. You guys do killer work.
I'm totally addicted to these videos.
7:19 " This is my collection for dinner, get your own. "
Yes nice sniff camera man and a nice pipe repair mr.plummer!!

Wow the clean up was bigger then the job. Well done.
Nice job.!
Im really like this job n im doing like this in my country.
Good housekeeping finally.
I'm loving the videos guys keep it up
who else hoped he would pressure wash that path haha
BUCK EVERYTHING! Seems to me it would have been a lot easier (having already picked up the large chunks) to blast everything back into the pit, rather than out onto the path, in the first place!
Nice cordless screwdriver! Great job mates.
One thing about the plumbing in Australia. It sucks because the one's who install it have no brains.
I am SO with you on this one. Joints on clay tiles unsealed. Open sanitary waste air gaps at grade -- in open yard spaces. Stepwise down drains with multiple clean outs. And what's with these drain pits in the ground with OPEN flow channels for sanitary waste from the house? I have two threaded/sealed clean outs in my CLOSED main waste to the street. IDK.
guys you're works so hard i like that 👏👏👏👏.......
Another nasty 1! You must have days like that 1 right after another lol
Brings back horrible memories of having to do the same thing at my bothers house. Never quite get used to that smell.
My parents didn’t teach me much but I learned at an early age not to pour grease down the sink.
Great videos, 👍👍👍👍
No paro de ver tus vídeos. Ojalá algún día hables español 👍👍🤣🤣
I agree with Nigel I had no idea what you plumbers had to go through to get your jobs done!!! The chunks of grease looks like rocks!! I heard about this here in New York they found a grease Berg they called it gross!!!
How long did it take to analyze the problem and the plumbing to decide upon your „pont of attack“?
Makes me wanna get the dish soap an 🙂💕🙂💕🙂start scrubbing the grease away hello from indianapolis
A good job men! 👍💪💖
Milkshake machine broke
Congrats on 50K!

Is that normal for the pipe to just tip over like that? And why does it look like a clay pot for plants? Oh wait it doesn't look like a plant pot when they went in to fix it I could see it better.
It was a 90 degree elbow. I guess the rubber seal was past it, as they normal can't be turned like that without great effort. :-)
Congratulation for 50k guys...
Is that clay fitting supposed to move that easily?
uhm, they didnt even like replace those pipes or some shit. isnt the pipe broken, leaks under the clay pot thing??? what if its not centered in the pipe?
probably not, I think the grease was holding it all together. Fairly sure PVC pipe isn't supposed to be cemented into place either.
No.
Loving the vids
Do they have a separate channel where they show the repair work on the pipes ect.
Nvm I see they showed on this one good work guys
1:11 That job just became a whole lot easier!!!
Does a great job at unclogging anything. Greasy everything for the next year.
You missed rinsing off all of the goo on the underside of the porch. That's going to smell!........I like your videos.....Don't know why but I do!
I’m claustrophobic so I’m gonna sit this one out, till later.👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Rich and creamy
HEY DRAIN DUDE CAN SMILE!
This family must love fried foods!
Just once I'd like to see him talk to the owners and say, "Stop pouring greese down your sink you dipshit!"
what's the thing on his neck? is it a brace? if so, what happened?
That was quite hurl worthy! So damn disgusting,....... but I can't stop watching,,,.....
1:09 "well shit..."

Shouldn't this be Blocked Drain 234?And hello from Sweden.
Deleted one a little while ago. Storm water drain, with broken pipe. Customer was in it, maybe that's the reason they took it down.
OK i understand.
I saw that one, forgot what number that was.
Thank you.
Since you kneel down in all this muck. Do you hose down your clothes after each job or just let it be for the day and clean it all off after the workday is done?
He's hosed himself off at the end of a couple videos
Do you ever add a little onto the price when it's self inflicted like grease or wet wipes?
Nope nope nope I soooo could not go under any house for any job yep hello haven’t you seen the wizard of oz the house fell on her.. I don’t want no house to fall on me
Lmao 😜 😂 🤣
this is like the biggest crawl space i ever seen
What a Yank wants to see is the end of the day... "Hi Honey, I'm home" !! (and the dear long suffering lady's reply)
Nothing other than piss, shit, toilet paper, water and vomit will go down my drains any more.
Adventures in plumbing.🐀
What was that, that you pulled out of that hole. God bless you man! What a nasty job!
This is just a blocked kitchen drain......it's got nothing on those blocked sewer drains he clears 😂😂😂They are horrible!😂😂😂
What air conditioning company puts condenser units so close together , underneath a porch ? It would seem like the units would be put under enormous stress.
There’s a site for that too. The subtopic is “wall of shame”, for bad hvac installations.
Why hack saw the pipe when there was a manhole outside?
It kinda seemed like they didn't realize it was there. I think he jumped the gun and sawed the pipe when he coulda just did it from the manhole.
當時光倒流浪狗血型式樣貌執行長久候車次煩人家裡頭👍👍👍👍👍🧤💕💖✔️✔️
0:30. TG it's a sink drain. But why is a sink drain emptying into an industrial sized main? 1:10 There's part of the problem. SMH
Honey, we got any ant baits? 😁
They were blowing shit everywhere on this one.
people wonder why there is so much, "excuse me French" sh--t in the ocean...*
That has to be the most foulest smelling on the planet!!
a job well done
We make house crawls
cannot understand why people stick fat or grease down water cystems MAD
My thought exactly!!
So why was there a grease trap? Was this at a restaurant? Why did no one know there was one?
There's never any context or info on these videos, they're satisfying to watch but the lack of context and background info is sometimes annoying.
I CAN EXCUSE A CHILD PUTTING A TOY IN THE TOILET, BUT THIS IS PLAIN LAZINESS NOT TO PUT IT INTO A JAR, OR CAN, MY FATHER TAUGHT ME AROUND 4-5 TO PUT IT IN A SEPARATE CONTAINER THEN INTO TRASH, TRASH, TRASH...*
Another lovely slice of hell
I guess you can't be mad at the wipe-flushers and grease-dumpers, because that equals money.
People would be in deep shit if it wasnt for you mister! You are doing job that nobody wants but still needs to be done.
Another video added to appetite killer playlist
😁
Hang on ... did they have a fatberg in their sewer line?
It was a feed from the kitchen.
No angled clean out under the house. It would be non code in the U. S.
APB for ratty
what's with all the grease? multiple jobs you've been on..clogged pipes, containing grease o,O
Lazy people dumping it down there sinks...but it keeps him working 😁
GJ :)
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😊
Sounds that their client didn't have fat and oil trap system on their kitchen
Lots of grease
Does look better
Crawl spaces arent my favorite places to work. Are you in danger of finding a snake in there?
