Forgive my ignorance, but after reviewing your plywood diagram I am fairly certain the root of the problem is that your family has been shitting in the kitchen sink.
yaknow... if you put enough meat/fish down the garbage disposal and let all the ground muck/ bits build up long enough it basically forms turds. this was the case because my dad's got like that. the disswasher drain pipe got blocked with like 2+ inches of ground moldy putrid meat bits i was like why the hell have you never ran the dishwasher?

I was a plumber for over a year and the best part was when I would knock on the door and they would ask "who the fuck are you?" Apparently being female and a plumber didn't really match in most people's mind
Reminds me of cleaning the drains in a military kitchen.. You come to work and everything LOOKS clean of course, hygiene is not something they slack on normally, but then you find out on a friggin tuesday, that they haven`t been emptied since friday when you went on leave.. It is to this day the worst smell I have ever come across, it was worse than draining septic tanks, worse than a corpse, more a mix of both those and some moldy period blood sprinkled with detergent.. That guy cleaned the drains every time he came to work after that, and yours truly made sure he damn did it! They`re not bad at all if you do`em once or twice a day, but that smell could strip the paint off a nuclear sub..
Word of free advice: When lying beneath a defective sewage line, keep your own trap shut when cutting out the bad section. Avoid a "2 girls, 1 Cup" scenario.
Nah, Plumber is a terrible job, 4 years apprentice where you work for 5-7 bucks per hour and then you finally start with 17 per hour. Lawyer makes almost 40 !!!
Three years ago we had a devastating water leak in our house, caused $8k of damage and put us in a hotel for a week. The insurance adjuster was checking it all out, and he goes, "Believe me, be glad it's not sewage."
That there structural tree carcass is known as a floor joist. Looks fine from here. Thanks for including us in your spelunking adventure. No. No. A wave is fine! No reason to shake hands!
Wife degrades me as if I'm some form of degenerate because I'm cussing and throwing shit when 'easy' projects go sideways. Little does she know that I'm just speaking a language common to my brethren.
@@olefiend Worked a few clicks south of a refuse transfer station - deal'd mostly with the formerly and presently organic refuse. With a good breeze after a lovely pacific summer shower, just about knock you off your goddamn feet. I can't imagine what it would have been like to actually work there amongst the delicious putrescine. Fuck the cadaverine.
Nah that fell from the pipe leaking. Pipe leaked because it held water. The copper lines didn't blow so the insulation was intact when the pipe broke. The drain pipe was just lower down or even under the insulation.
As someone who has never touched a plumbing job in my life, I’d love to know what the answer was. Why was he able to use those “street elbows” when he originally didn’t think they’d work?
@@MrThedennisblack I think the issue with the street elbow is that it's female on one side, male on the other, he needed female on both sides. So, by putting the coupler on, he would get what he needed.
for some reason, I end up gagging just from the description. I don't know what is wrong with me, it is like over sympathetic. Might be dangerous in funeral homes though
A guy stays at a hotel in Tennessee. He calls the manager and tells him he has a leak in the bathroom sink. The manager replies go ahead everyone does it.
This is one of the best things I've watched in a long time. I hope it makes you feel better knowing your misery brought a little bit of joy to this schmuck.

As a 15 year Plumber, the gagging was the best part! It’s your first day rookie! Also, word of advice use a higher tooth sawzall blade to keep the pipe from flopping around when you’re cutting the pipe!
Was a sparky for years, mad props for the plumbers out there. But yeah I've had to go inside septic holding tanks to help fix/replace the pump, basement flooded with sewage yeah been there threw out my clothes, and "oh crap who broke that *gag* sewage pipe? Call the plumber and buy him a coffee!" jeez.
Also a plumber, and have crawled thru shit afew times. And to be honest this looks like a dream compared to most jobs. Still laughed as our poor man cut that pipe. A smell that most pro's have already learnt to deal with but know all to well what it feels like the first 100 times.
Oh my sides hurt so much from laughter. Had exactly the same fun recently including sending a friend for pipe fittings with a list and him bringing what is best described as almost every part I didnt ask for!

No joke. Way I figure it, if I do my best job, then by the time it needs fixed the codes will have changed, and they can just tear the whole thing up and start over.

@@Noise-Bomb correction... there never was a GOOD plumber that had time. I can point you to several that come fix your pipes at a moment's notice, but unless you're standing in half a meter of poopy water holding a deluge of water with your bare hands... you probably don't want to call them.
For a second there I thought I was looking at the Chernobyl aftermath. Could have swore I caught a glimpse of the elephants foot before the camera fogged!
The profanity escaping through clenched teeth with a tone of boiling blood upon the second cut really hit home for me. I had wondered for a moment who had secretly videoed me working on a home repair.
Thank you for your honest suffering so vividly depicted and expressed. I feel so much less alone! You Sir, are an unsung hero. But not in my neck of the woods. Here you are sitting in pride of place on my shoulder reminding me to think of the next guy, dutifully snipping off cable ties neatly, etc. An inconvenient voice in my head, but so you have made my world a better place - for me and the next guy.
A quote from the glorious Australian movie "Kenny" as he sticks his head out of a septic tank: _"I... I understand what you're saying, I really do. And I am hearing you, but, mate, what you got to understand is _*_there is a smell in here that is going to outlast religion,_*_ all right?"_
You could not write better comedy. This is absolutely gold. The humor on that situation makes it so much better. You had my attention. Now you have my respect 💯
Mate, that was the best laugh of the year by half! Trust me, I was laughing with you, not at you, as I was in the same position under a leaking kitchen sink only a fortnight ago. I can still taste the stink of her!!! Thanks for sharing mate. Wishing you and your family a very blessed and Merry Christmas. Stay well.
What makes me laugh on the shopping channels trying to flog (sell) pressure washers & steam cleaners on *brand new tiles* with some food splashed on it.😠🤦. Like we know it's New tiles/carpet that's why it cleans Up easy! .. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
I know I’m a month late, but thank you, from the goddamn bottom of my heart, for putting this video up. Your high level education/intellect can be intimidating, but this is a much appreciated reminder that we’re all just working to be happy with people we love, and sometimes you gotta get dirty, regardless of status. And the fact that you had to do it because of Covid helped me relate, too 👍 been stuck without my girlfriend overseas for almost a year now
That's why I spec'd a full monolithic concrete pour basement when I built my house. And cleanouts at every 90 degree turn in the DWV system. Thank you for this.
As a long time fan and a long time plumber, it was good to see the universal language of plumbing in action. Swear the work into place. Good job brother! 😂
I near bucked up whatever it was I last ate when you made that retching sound after you cut the pipe. No smell-o-vision needed if you've been there before, that memory never leaves ya. Happy Festivus!
@@WilliamEades_Frostbite In all fairness, he did do the downhill cut first...it was pitched backwards. I was also yelling "ratchet cutter, not a sawsall!" Too bad there wasn't one of those orange stickers around;) (not to be operated by....)
I would strongly recommend covering the dirt floor of the crawlspace with vapour barrier. This will keep the moisture out of the crawlspace, will reduce the musty smell in the house and will make future jobs cleaner. To slow down the decay of the wooden structure, mix some borax in warm water and spray all wood. This is a good fungicide, stops ants, and I think may be a fire retardant as well.
I've watched this 4 times in a row and my wife can't figure out why I am laughing so dam hard ! (you know who you F----n are) Great video and fantastic sense of humor !
"Makita, why you no last?" I'm thinking previous Makita got the info and committed suicide before being drafted into this job. When you gagged I nearly did the same.
Or he just uses his shitty Sawzall for the shitty jobs, I literally have do the same. Have a good one for the clean pipe and the Makita for cutting into shit pipes hahah
Holy crap. I very rarely comment on you tube but this was the funniest thing I’ve seen in years! I was literally laughing so hard I was crying when I read some of the comments. My wife must have thought I’d finally lost it. Freaking awesome dude!

Trust me there never was a plumber that had time... I know, my brother is a rare specimen of that ancient species. True giant, not as big but he sure is slow enough.
@@Noise-Bomb correction... there never was a GOOD plumber that had time.
I can point you to several that come fix your pipes at a moment's notice, but unless you're standing in half a meter of poopy water holding a deluge of water with your bare hands... you probably don't want to call them.
I pissed myself laughing when that pipe cut through. 😂
Hey AvE, spread some hydrated lime under there. It’ll break down the organics and remove the odor completely
@@rollei35mm it's only suspicious if you leave a full bag and a shovel under there.
If it's good enough for Mozart's paupers' grave, it's good enough for me!
@@rollei35mm covers the smell and helps break down the bodies quicker! 2 fer 1!
Why do I remember this..
Ya now u tell him😄
@@rollei35mm John Wayne Gacy approved!
For a second there I thought I was looking at the Chernobyl aftermath. Could have swore I caught a glimpse of the elephants foot before the camera fogged!
Damn right, I had thoughts of the same thing.
I was a HVAC tech for 25 years. Bellied around in hundreds of crawl spaces. That's what you're really getting paid for!
It takes 2 things to know to be a plumber
#1 Dont bite your fingernails
#2 Payday is on Friday
Thank you for the best laugh I’ve had in a long time. You are a legend sir. Awesome videos. Awesome dude. 🍻
The profanity escaping through clenched teeth with a tone of boiling blood upon the second cut really hit home for me. I had wondered for a moment who had secretly videoed me working on a home repair.
Yeah, I heard that and I thought "He's not joking. He's definitely pronouncing a curse on someone just in the off chance it will work."
"That's what happens when plumbing doesn't run down hill"
It looks like it certainly did run down hill, you're just on the wrong side of the hill.
His mouth was downhill. LOL
@@notthomasharrell LOL! Damn....I spit out in sympathy when that happened.
Don’t forget not to drink and watch or Read comments on this channel you have it coming when you eject that liquid through your nose!!!
Bijdehandje ;-)
Thank you for your honest suffering so vividly depicted and expressed. I feel so much less alone! You Sir, are an unsung hero. But not in my neck of the woods. Here you are sitting in pride of place on my shoulder reminding me to think of the next guy, dutifully snipping off cable ties neatly, etc. An inconvenient voice in my head, but so you have made my world a better place - for me and the next guy.
I loved this one. I will love Act II where Our Hero goes back in to strap the pipe midspan to the joists.
"Curse you to a life of surviving your own projects" - Perfect!
"To a life of suffering your own projects" don't misquote the man
@@dChad014 Yeah, I saw that after sending.
Although; Sometimes you have to survive the last guys work if it's dodgy enough.
It would of took him literally 1% more effort to not fuck it up! Ie make sure it goes down and attach it properly
A quote from the glorious Australian movie "Kenny" as he sticks his head out of a septic tank: _"I... I understand what you're saying, I really do. And I am hearing you, but, mate, what you got to understand is _*_there is a smell in here that is going to outlast religion,_*_ all right?"_
love Kenny, that was a great movie
@@mattymcsplatty5440 exactly!
For everyone else, if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favour and track it down!
I just saw that video last month on amazon. Awesome funny movie!
The accuracy of social insight that film has into white Australia is devastating.
That is an awesome line. I will find the film. Thanks for the heads up.
You could not write better comedy. This is absolutely gold. The humor on that situation makes it so much better. You had my attention. Now you have my respect 💯
Mate, that was the best laugh of the year by half! Trust me, I was laughing with you, not at you, as I was in the same position under a leaking kitchen sink only a fortnight ago. I can still taste the stink of her!!! Thanks for sharing mate. Wishing you and your family a very blessed and Merry Christmas. Stay well.
This is the reality of DIY, not that BS "look we painted everything black and white!" you see on TV.
What makes me laugh on the shopping channels trying to flog (sell) pressure washers & steam cleaners on
*brand new tiles*
with some food splashed on it.😠🤦.
Like we know it's
New tiles/carpet that's why it cleans Up easy! .. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
lol, no the reality of diy and house flipping is a solid inspection and avoiding moving sewer lines because plumbers are expensive af.
The reality of not editing out where you got effed by the last guy haha
Best DIY channel on the YouTUbe.
Nice to see my two favorite channels watching each others work!
I geek out when people I follow comment on videos of other people I follow 😆
hey Allyn! Awesome job with the Freedom Factory :)

I know I’m a month late, but thank you, from the goddamn bottom of my heart, for putting this video up. Your high level education/intellect can be intimidating, but this is a much appreciated reminder that we’re all just working to be happy with people we love, and sometimes you gotta get dirty, regardless of status.
And the fact that you had to do it because of Covid helped me relate, too 👍 been stuck without my girlfriend overseas for almost a year now
Hope you got back to her bud
Such a beautifully photographed piece of action art!
When he gagged I feared for the world. It takes a real nascent horror to light AvE aglow with mortal hues.
"Man, I wish she bought two couplings."
10 seconds later...
That's why I spec'd a full monolithic concrete pour basement when I built my house. And cleanouts at every 90 degree turn in the DWV system. Thank you for this.
This is, regrettably, the very most relatable vijayo of yours I've ever seen.
"Looks like an under sea adventure" LMAO
Ye, sea of shit. Must be out of this world experience :D
As a long time fan and a long time plumber, it was good to see the universal language of plumbing in action. Swear the work into place. Good job brother! 😂
I near bucked up whatever it was I last ate when you made that retching sound after you cut the pipe. No smell-o-vision needed if you've been there before, that memory never leaves ya. Happy Festivus!
Not too often I literally laugh out loud. Cue the gagging, and cussing...well done.
The moment you started with that reciprocating saw, I was saying "are you sure you really want to do that?".
Ya gotta bite the bullet at some time.. aint gonna get it with a cable saw..
That is why I use a Ratchet Cutter...And do the downhill cut first. That way I don't get hosed twice on the same job.
@@WilliamEades_Frostbite In all fairness, he did do the downhill cut first...it was pitched backwards. I was also yelling "ratchet cutter, not a sawsall!" Too bad there wasn't one of those orange stickers around;) (not to be operated by....)
i would of used a 5" grinder with diamond blade,. the electrikery burns the poop,no smell. sawsall,best & quikest..you can get long blades for them..
@@phantomwalker8251 i would just call the plumber.
"i can't remember when i've had this much fun and still been conscious"
I would strongly recommend covering the dirt floor of the crawlspace with vapour barrier. This will keep the moisture out of the crawlspace, will reduce the musty smell in the house and will make future jobs cleaner. To slow down the decay of the wooden structure, mix some borax in warm water and spray all wood. This is a good fungicide, stops ants, and I think may be a fire retardant as well.
Thanks for the injury I suffered laughing, while you were explaining your vomit level. I needed that.
I'm watching it on the shitter for full effect.
Same
Sometimes you have to remind yourself that the first couple of licks are all sweat and piss, but the rest is good eatin'.
Freakin. Killin. Me. 🤣😂🤣😂
foul ball...
Can I get that on a t-shirt?
OMFG
Bravo
I've watched this 4 times in a row and my wife can't figure out why I am laughing so dam hard ! (you know who you F----n are) Great video and fantastic sense of humor !
I watched this to go to sleep and now wide awake. Thank you, loved it.
You know you’re in Canada when the Off is in the safety supplies
"Makita, why you no last?"
I'm thinking previous Makita got the info and committed suicide before being drafted into this job.
When you gagged I nearly did the same.
Or he just uses his shitty Sawzall for the shitty jobs, I literally have do the same. Have a good one for the clean pipe and the Makita for cutting into shit pipes hahah
Holy crap. I very rarely comment on you tube but this was the funniest thing I’ve seen in years! I was literally laughing so hard I was crying when I read some of the comments. My wife must have thought I’d finally lost it. Freaking awesome dude!
The community demands more videos like this from you. It is satisfying to watch you doing this "high" jobs for some reason and struggling
The carbon filter in a gas mask does a great job of filtering smells as well.
username checks out
Yep. Would have been a great place to implement the usage of a good auto painter's mask. Granted, the commentary wouldn't have been as colorful....
@@cannaroe1213 lel!
"Don't mind my finger..."
Oh boy, we've all been there before.
I just turned 49. That's next year.
@@DaddyBeanDaddyBean lucky you... I'm 35 and had it twice. By the doctor I might add! Females too, ladies have taken revenge
The best 17 minutes and 24 seconds of entertainment this year! Cheers!
