I haven't laughed at a youtube comment in like 2 years, thanks for resetting my streak
@@thegoldenflare3199 Same lmao
I'd like to think he screams it whenever something has been used before he got to it
Beaoooty

This felt more like lock picking than a disassembly.
Absolutely 🔐
Click out of 1. 2 is binding.
@@izzieb The LockPickingLawyer approves this message.
"this is the lockpicking lawyer and what we have here today is the iPod classic 7th generation" 😂
The only way to open a 7th gen classic is to see a lockpicker
TheLockPickingLawyer: Seems like a good lock!
"There is one major design flaw that renders it completely useless"
Proceeds to bash it open with 1 grit
Considering how hard those are to open, not to mention having to bend them back into shape, you might be better off bashing them open with 1 Grit.
You have a good point BlueRockEye
I think this one might be a job for a stoprock
Your pfp represents the dentist looking at my teeth before yanking them
My 5th gen finally sits tight again after bending the little bendy bits back.

2:10 did you just make a god damn ashens reference
You sir deserve a medal. I clicked like in .6 of a phemptosecond
Also the Clockwork Orange reference too! I love these videos lmao
bruh i havent seen you in a fucking minute
@@notgray88 Never heard of that before
I thought he said "femboysecond"
What video is he referencing? I've never seen Ashens mention phemtoseconds.
Scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at a level 7.
This would pass the bend test
Glass is Glass.
And glass breaks.

As someone who just got a 7th gen to mod, cracking it open is just as hard as people say it is. I'm glad I had a replacement housing ready so I just decided to rip the current one out
Use a knife like a good switch blade had mine open in 20 mins
@@purplepimp4204 that sounds extremely dangerous
I got one for free, it's scratched to all get out, I'm shuddering at the thought of opening it, all the years of being in a garage probably did something
*"Nobody's been in here"*

That's what she said

Oof
*F*
I've been considering opening my 6th gen. After seeing this I'm going to leave it alone until it actually needs to be opened up.
My 6th gen has a ton of dead pixels on the screen and a bad battery. I'm planning on buying replacement parts and doing it as a project

Bow down to the algorithm
The ifixit method gives me anxiety, BEND
Jesus Christ, I've never seen an ifixit guide be so wild. Basically what they are saying is: "what you want to do is very carefully jam a fucking knife through it and move it until you get it open or you die"
Honestly tho, I was expecting something like: "you really want to make yourself suffer, huh?" when you're a few steps in because oh my LORD this is an absolute NIGHTMARE.
The first person to watch this be like
Nobody’s beeeennnnn innnnnn heeeerrrreeeee
boy do I love unfunny jokes spammed for internet points
BURNNN
@Dakota Butler Just to make it clear. I was NOT the first person in here, somebody else was. but there has to be a first-person in a TH-cam video. PLUS it is only a joke and shouldnt be looked into this deeply. I don't care about attention or "internet points" or even likes. All I care about is if I put something up, people don't hate on it.
@@PlastiGomi It's up to you whether you think they are funny or not. I frankly don't mind. But this is not spammed.
7:50 you're right. Those are How To Basic noises!
SuperFredi doesn’t How To Basic live in Australia 👀
Edit: live
EPIK 456 he probably does both
@EPIK 456 thanks
back when I just got into ipodding, I spent 2 hours opening my 6th gen with a butter knife and good lord that was absolutely agonising.
Did you use the "PRO STRAT"?
Ok so long story short, I needed to dissassemble a microwave. However, the thick metal case had been sealed shut by like a press, so I spent about 3 hours cutting the whole thing apart with a pair of garden shears
@@fhendrych PRO STRAT PRO STRAT PRO STRAT
Centorea 88 I took apart a lawn mower, since I didn’t have the correct socket to remove the driveshaft, i got a sledgehammer and pounded on the oil pan until it split in half
@@bandombeviews6035 nice haha. I hate when disassembly requires super specific tools.
I don't even own an ipod but your channel is so enjoyable to just listen to. Probably has to do with your thick Boston accent.
EDIT: lol didn't think a joke comment would be so polarizing. It's a joke five-heads, I know he's not from boston, he's from russia.
Interesting as I’m South Australian...

Underrated comment
A little tip I use: Put masking tape right along the seams where you intend to pry from. It helps prevent your tool from sliding across the surface too much when you do happen to slip. It may not stop all marking but it will help keep any marks that do occur a bit on the smaller/more minor side. Granted, you may simply not give a damn with these products for all I know, but I figure the tip may at least be of use to someone.
“Untested” usually means it’s been tested... but it doesn’t work
Some people literally don't bother to test them, this is more a 50% 50% chance of it working or not
7:20 NO SHREK! WE ARE BEING PLAYED OUT OF AN iPOD THAT BELONGS TO AN ANGRY AUSSIE MAN! WE ARE DOOMED!
I’ve been a huge fan of this channel ever since TH-cam recommended it after watching The Blurst Of Times all day on repeat... I didn’t even own any iPods so when my roommate handed me his old one yesterday out of the blue naturally I was excited!!! I think it’s a 6th gen classic (160GB with a perfect screen and no battery swelling... I don’t know what I’m gonna do with it but I’m excited lmao
Nice score!
@@DankPods you and Hugh Jeffery should do a collaboration
Sincerely thank you for this guide. Got my 6th gen open without getting bloody (gloved up) and using almost your exact plan of attack with the proper tools. Feel so much better now that its open to work on modding it! Thanks.
This is why I love your videos, you're the most honest TH-camr when it comes to classic iPods. I have modded many classic iPods myself and I always roll my eyes at other videos where they open these things in seconds. The only way that happens is if it has already been opened dozens of times before. The 5th gens aren't too difficult but can be tricky if never opened before, once they are opened its effortless to open them again. But the 6th and 7th are nearly impossible not to bend or damage the backplate unless you really know what you are doing.
My teacher: 0:02
Yay! Another video that never gets old to rewatch, I’ve rewarded so many of your videos over and over again the past couple of days.
Everytime he uploads i drop everything and watch his new vids

Please don’t ever refer to gloves as “extra skin” again

EXTRA SKIN BIIIITCH

The original hard drive in my 160gb 7th gen classic died recently and I probably wouldn’t have known where to start getting in to the thing without this video.
Once I’d managed to get the isesamo tool to open the back case a crack, I found that the best thing to keep the clips deactivated was a bunch of hair clips as they’re thin and slightly sprung metal.
I’m waiting until Payday to order a new back case, front case and battery, however I now have it running off a 256gb SD card. Thanks Dank.
You uploaded this last night at around 3 AM and I was so sad I couldn’t watch it right away cause I was drop dead tired. Love your vids dude! Keep em up!
Please know that your efforts have not gone unnoticed.
Thank you for your hard work and sacrifice toward opening the hardest equipment for our enjoyment.
Internet: MacBooks and iPhone are the hardest things in the world to work on and open!
iPod Classic and Nano: Hold my spudger
Discovered your channel recently, subbed. Who knew servicing old iPods could be so entertaining.
I have a classic I wanted to open, but I think I'll wait until the battery or hard drive actually die before even attempting it!
*looks at wife’s fufu*
“SOMEONES BEEN IN HERE”
Fufu? 😂
I literally am right about to go to bed, then I see this gets uploaded, dammit.

I’m so glad my friend who was drunk around 3 am randomly posted your video for us to watch.
I love your humor and way of speaking.
The iPod 7G 160 GB is the second iPod i've collected, and it's making this wierd sound, I don't know if it's the drive, but I opened it up. The process went super smoothly cause I had this video playing right next to be the whole time. You're a legend, Wade!
This has made my day, seeing this coming out
This video actually made me buy a red and black 7th gen, perfect combo 😍
If it's your first time doing this, I highly suggest buying a replacement case ontop of whatever replacement/upgrade parts you're doing. That way you don't have to worry so much about damaging the original case when opening it. There are plenty of cases you can get for around $25. I got mine on eBay.
Him with a 6/7th gen iPod: "This is the hardest iPod to open"
iPod nano: _laughs with a swollen battery*_
When you're so early to an upload that it doesn't even show the channel page...
Imagine how much money he spent on Shrek DVDs and merch lmao.
I love how you send messages to my old favorite videos of yours that i am watching when i don't wanna breathe anymore.
Propably the best opening of one of these that i have seen. Good work.
My first modded iPod was a 7th gen, lemme tell you, heck of introduction.
Me: *about to sleep*
DankPods: henlo
Just the grunting made my muscles tense. And this was a relaxing DankPods binge watching session.
You truly are a fighter man, good job on the video!
That is literally the only iPod I ever repaired. Coming from iPhones it didn’t feel hard.
Alright Waikiki

Bully for you
Coming from Nokia 1100 it ain't that hard to repair
That intro....
Ah yes classic Dankpods.
i dont have ANY INTEREST in ipods
BUT YOU ARE SO FRICN SO ENTERTAINING AND YOU'VE MADE ME OBSESSED NOW
This is actually great for me! I have one of these iPods and the hard drives dying so I'm waiting for the adaptor to arrive so I can put an SD card in it, so thanks for letting me know exactly what I've got to do! 👌 The ifixit guide was making me anxious
As a electronic’s technician this was fun to watch lol
“*I HATE YOU ALL*”
*Me: But I love you...*
*YOU HATE ME*
It's 2 am and I always end up watching videos like this only. I only own a 4th Gen, but I'm not really that crazy about iPods. DankPods just has a way of making videos that are very entertaining and fun to watch. I really enjoy your content!! c:
During these dark times, your channel is the best thing to come
my nano is screaming
Wow it feels like you just started this channel and you're already the most famous Australian I know of. Well, besides the dentist from finding Nemo.
This is the best episode of the Pod-Picking Drummer yet.
This channel is gold
I love it
Truly, you haven’t tried to open a 7th Gen IPod nano.
Me: just woke up
DankPods: video!
You just woke up? I haven't even gone to bed yet
@@depressedtiger677 yeah, I'm from Europe
The intro to this videos is one of the best intros i have ever seen in my life. It is a pure DankPods blessing if i ever saw one.
I’ve never needed more iPod videos in my life
I had a feeling that I needed to search for you when I was watching a hugh jeffereys video, as he was taking about how hard they were to open
I find a new video
As I usually change housing to Ipod, I simply open Classic's with flat scredriver. It destroys old case, but who cares, at least that way, I can open it in seconds.
Do you use the pro strat™
I just did it, with this video playing. I had to pause it a few times, but was of great help. Made some minor scratches to my classic, but smoothed them with fine sandpaper (the aluminium top is very easy to scuff). Everything works, and looks good, and I am happy with it! I used the iSesame tool, and some auto feeler gauges to open case.
I can’t get enough of your content, please never stop haitching those peas
Lmao does anyone think DankPros sound like Jazz’s? (the artist)
Opaque Ice yea but dank pods is obviously better
Both of them are from australia
the word is artist i believe XD
Nadie yes i know that they are from australia, i am australian
they barely sound alike
I now have a flash modded iPod that I use regularly... and it’s all your fault.
@DankPods This video really brightened up my day. Keep up the good work, i'd love to see you build an ipod into like a bluetooth speaker enclosure. or even better! a baby jukebox for the bathroom?
You my good sir, got me into modding iPods. I just got a 5th gen and flash modded it. Really glad I went with a 5th gen over a 7th gen now
Hey, at least it isn't as hard as an iPod nano 5th gen. I know a local repair shop and he has never fixed a 5th gen nano. He's repaired 160 iPod 7th gens.
SHOOP 0:57
1:02 i litterally cutted my finger opening a nano 3gen the day before you posted this video LoL
Good video dude! Even though if I were you I would use a thinner opening tool and some guitar picks, but it's very helpful either way!:)
Started watching this at 4:20
Hi
I forgot to write to tell to that you have amazing content.
And also how's grit (the rock) and how's quarantine has been going in astraila dank pods and I sorry to ask you a question what is your name and your favorite music or song. and to write a long edit i never thought you would read this.
Woot! Got in with out bloodshed! Love your videos man!
I really like your music taste I see popping up while watching your videos. Can I find more of your music somewhere? (such as a last fm page or whatever)
What do you eat the spoon or the fruit cup

... did this say spoons are my favourite fruit before? spoon

Another great video as always!
I bought 11 iPods since I found this channel..
cool
He's lowkey gonna unleash his inner howtobasic
I've got one of these 6th gen 80gbs, I've got a new case, iflash solo and all the fixins, new headphone and hold switch and a 2000mah bat tree coming for it. The first time I cracked the original case open I broke the little rail thing on the inside that clips it together so its very easy to open now (but doesnt seal shut properly) so the hard bits done aside from swapping out almost everything
I used my painters metal pallette knife to open my pod. theyre super thin and flexible. good tool to have around
*"Hello ladies and gentleman, this is the iPod Picking Lawyer"*
You took too long John DankPods, I can open up one of these in .6 femtoseconds >:(((
Jomaster The Second toss it into sun, disintegrated is still technically open
Lol I have been trying to open mine for a few days xD good timing dank 😎
I have some of those and I thought they looked like metal stud scraps with a brand on the handle, I used to make knifes and sheaths 😂😂
@1:54 was that a pun of a line from A Clockwork Orange? That was great! Well done
Why am I just now getting a notification for this video
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
I love watching dankpod at 2 in the morning
Your content is a cure for this quarantine... Cheer mate!
