@@DadhowdoI I lost my dad when I was 12, but I thought I'd managed to figure out how to do all the things he would have taught me to a relatively satisfactory degree. Now that I'm finally out on my own, I realized how little I actually knew. Finding your channel is really a godsend, keep doing what you're doing.
Make videos for girls without mothers, or single fathers who have daughters. There plenty of guys out there that would love the help of a woman when it comes to helping their daughters when there’s no one the girl can turn to.
I asked my dad to show me how to change a tire (it was for a school assignment, there was a list of life skills we could do and that one was worth a lot of points) and he refused because the tire didn't need to be changed, then got mad at me over my grades... I don't talk to him anymore.
@@jj.h1388 Thanks! I'm actually doing way better without him in my life; he was an emotionally stunted man-child and should not have had kids imo. Hope you have a good day!
My favorite part is him saying "thank you" like he's ending the video and then has a bunch of little things to add at the end. You keep thinking the video is ending but wait.... There's more!
Oh yeah sure , he always have to remind you how useless you are when he's almost done . He feels something going wrong when it all ends without yelling 😂😂
Heard about this channel. Thought it was a joke, no I see its pure and honest....is this what a normal dad looks like? I was expecting more for yelling and cursing and calling me worthless. This is nice.
All of us dad's make mistakes. I suck often but I apologise just as often. You're not worthless, that's just anger talking. You're priceless, no one else in the world exactly like you. Have a dad hug *hug!*
I've always been scared that when I grow up and if I become a father I won't be able to teach my children "dad" things because no one taught me. Thank you this might change that.
Even if you don't have someone to teach it to you like a father. Throughout life you will learn most things. Also. Don't be afraid to ask a cousin/uncle/neighbor/friends dad or someone to teach you . Or with certain things (maybe not as big as tire changing) just try. Look how it's put together and think how you could fix it. Try something. Even if it isn't from your dad, yeah it's easier. But still, you will learn it.
My mum had a flat tyre today when she went out to buy breakfast for the family. I look up online and found this video. Thank you! You saved my family's breakfast!
I have a good advice for all. Every one here should own an air compressor designed for tire vehicle and keep it inside the trunk. It's good for pumping up a flat tire, drive to a nearby tire shop, and get a tire replacement or repair. If you don't like it, thumbs down on me.
Couple big sister tips, the yellow sticker on the spare usually has the max millage that you should drive on it as well as speed because spares aren’t able to take the same speeds or distance as regular tires. If you’re changing the tire in the winter try giving the tire a quick rinse off with some really hot water to help melt down the ice and salt that have hardened around the lug nuts and between the tire and the wheel.
I'm 39 and I never learned any of this. I had 6 step dads, none of them cared much about me. I watch all your videos and I feel empowered! Everyone needs a dad...even at 39. Thank you for doing this ❤
Hello. If you love someone,you can call him dad!I feel sorry for your past...Try to love and help others to feel FULL in your 💙 Good June 🌞Happy Summer🌞
Anyone that says ‘it’s not important, you’re a girl.’ It’s complete BS. Because there are many single mothers/fathers teaching their kid/children how to change their tire. You never know when it needs to be done. Especially for girls, they do not need to be placed in a sigma of ‘I can’t do anything.’ Not saying all girls are like that. But we know there are some girls that like to play that role. I know my mother (widowed, father passed very early in my life) taught me at a young age to do so of these things. Especially when I got to the age of driving, she told me that I don’t know how to do the basic things for my vehicle. I didn’t need a vehicle or drivers license. She let me know first hand that not everyone will help you, so best to have this for your own knowledge & maybe teach someone who doesn’t know. Thank you for being that person stepping up to show everyone! 😁
I remember when my dad changed our car's tire I asked him to teach me. He told me, "It's easy if you're not stupid." He never even teach me how and just expected me to know it by myself? I thank you, sir. So grateful for people like you.
This channel instantly made me cry. As someone who’s grown up with an abusive father and have no relationship with him, this is so heartwarming. Please keep doing what you’re doing :’)
I don’t know what’s worst, to be your dads best friend for more than 10 years and then losing him by a heart attack at 17 years old (my story) or to have an abusive dad with no relationship (most people story too)
One important tip I got when learning this is: When you remove the old tire, place it under the vehicle (next to the jack) so that when the jack fails, the car won't hit the ground, but will be suspended by the rim of the old tyre.
You have no idea, how much I needed to learn how to change a tire! On two occasions I had to go to a tire shop, and at another ocasión I had to wave someone to help me change my tire. Tomorrow I’m going to look in my trunk to see if I have a Jack, and a spare in good condition. Thank you so much! Sincerely, Mary Jane
DUDE !!! Small fcking world. I was looking up how to change a tire and seen your comment, you prob looked this up when you & I were on the side of the road trying to change my tire lol ! Hope your doing well ❤

Thank you for doing this. My sons father passed away wen he was a baby and I'm tryn my best to play both parts but it's difficult when I don't know how to do most stuff the dad is supposed to do. Definitely going to take some notes from your page so I know I'm raising a good man. Ur a true hero
I hope all goes well for you Mary. I am an only child and my mom is a single parent. My dad was never in the picture and was only in my life for a couple weeks after my birth. I know it could be very difficult for a mom to play both roles because I know my mom did. Just keep doing the great work and your son will appreciate it. 18 years of my mom raising me and I thank her for everything.
Thank you, I have been more than willing to admit that I am not the best at anything, just trying to give people one way of doing things. I truly appreciate your comment. 🙏
One important element I'd like to add is: know where the jack is in your car. Know where the spare tire is. Get them out and look at them before you're in an emergency. When you're driving somewhere, know what number you're going to call if you want a tow. Alternatively: in the US, there's Roadside Assistance in many areas, so watch for the signs advertising the number. (Roadside Assistance saved my life once! So now anytime I drive more than an hour i'm always looking for the signs with the local roadside assistance number.) Thanks for the great video!
THANK YOU for telling us the spare tire is NOT a replacement. My dad and i share a truck and one day my friend asked to borrow it to help her move out of her apartment and the tire blew out out of nowhere! Since my dad and I share it, I assumed he'd know if it were a bad tire we were using since he has a general knowledge of vehicle maintenance. Roadside Assistance helped her out and I was so embarrassed and ashamed I'd lent my friend a truck with a bad tire. They hooked up the spare I had, and later I asked my father how long would the spare last and he told me a few weeks or so. That tire blew out 2 days later at another friends house where I was supposed to pick her up and take her out to eat, and HER dad had to help me. I was so thankful, but also saddened that my friend's father was more caring about my well being than my own, and was very surprised I was driving around on a spare. I feel horrible to this day knowing not only could I have gotten seriously hurt, but also my passenger. Thank you for making these videos, you're helping so many people!
It just depends on the tire. Some vehicles, like Jeeps usually, have a spare that’s the same as the other 4. You’d probably be fine driving on that until payday or whatever but you’d still wanna get it fixed because now you have one brand new tire and 3 that aren’t, lol.
Dad, How do I stop being jealous for not having a dad? Thank you for this videos. I don't even drive but I can just watch the whole thing this is just so genuine 🥺
Never thought I'd ever cry at someone changing a tyre This man is amazing for opening this channel up Thank you for being that father figure Please keep up the good work
This man deserves to be named the best dad of the whole century. he knows what all of us that dont have a dad go through and he is trying to help us out as much as he can and im happy that people like this still exist. keep doing what your doing internet dad💪🏼💪🏼
Anyone, male or female, that thinks this is a fool. The women in my life thankfully either know or want to know how to do this stuff and not be dependent. And the other men in my life agree that women should know and be able to, but would also gladly help if asked.
I really like your videos, this is a great idea! How about how to jumpstart a car battery for a future video? I had to do it for the first time recently and I was pretty scared. I would've appreciated a nice calming dad presence to help me haha
@@aaronkis2570 You probably had the mower very low to the ground. As you are mowing you don't want the grass to cut too low, get into the sprout of the seed, it'll start to turn yellow.
Everyone "has" a dad. Some are just not around for whatever reason. Just saying.. it makes a difference in the mind/emocional development this having/not having a dad/mom.
Thank you so much for this. My father never showed me how to do any of these things, he was essentially out of my life when I was 11 years old and was basically absent as a father even before that. This brought tears to my eyes that you are so kind to do this for people. I have always needed to know how to do these things and no one has ever shown me. Thank you for caring. It really feels like I am there with you while you are demonstrating these skills and I love all of the little tips as well to make things easier.
Hey I watched that one too. Imma be watching all the videos eventually. It is nice having someone talk on the backgroung when being alone in my apartment. And his talk is better for it than many other youtubers.
This is so wholesome. The fact that none of this is professionally edited gives a sense of personal touch as well. Thank you so much, Internet Dad. Please do keep up at it!
My father taught my older sister how to change a tire. A few months later our parents separated so I've never learned. Thank you very much for showing & sharing!
I have a dad who may be not able to change tyre but loves me very very much. I have never appreciated it unless I see the comments of this cloud dad’s video. Having a dad itself is already a very very lucky thing. Wish you a happy Father’s Day!
My dad passed when I was 11 years old. UA-cam has been my resource for many repairs, thanks to people like you. Home maintenance and car maintenance videos are always helpful! Thank you!
my dad passed unexpectedly a couple months ago. we’re never really ready to lose our parents, but he was young and it was unexpected, and there was so much he never got a chance to teach me. thank you.
A couple of tips that might help, position the lug wrench so you can step on it if they are too tight to loosen by hand and the owners manual will tell you where to locate the jack because it's not always self evident. Great job.
Wow this videos make me feel like my dad finally loves me. Seriously, I haven't felt the warm embrace of a fatherly figure since one cold night in the fall of 1991
I have no one to show me how to do this. Thank you for this video!! Sincerely. It made me a little sad, but I’m grateful for your time. You’re a good dad.
You know, you're helping me a lot. my dad died when I was 8 and it's very hard for me without him, but your videos help me a lot. I'm only 13. I do not know what I would do if it weren't for such kind people like you. I wish you all the best. Thank you for being there.
Thank you internet dad, my dad is around but he’s never been in life a lot. He constantly works and he cares enough to actually teach me helpful things like that, whenever I ask him he gets angry and calls people to do it for me. Thank you for teaching me.
Watched your video before attempting changing my tire out due to a nail. And then a dad stopped by the road to help me. I was ready to do it myself because of your video!!! Thank you!
Thank you for being here for people who can’t or their father is not in their life anymore or has never been this channel is amazing really protect this channel!
You're absolutely right. The idea of having to change a tire when I've never had to do it before was very intimidating... Until your video! I always knew where the tools and spare tire were and I was confident I'd be able to figure it out with the car manual at my own pace, and maybe calling a friend... My friends have always said it's easy, but I didn't think it would be 10-minutes-easy. Thanks for showing the whole thing and not editing out parts of the process. Your video was so helpful and thorough. The bits at the end were great (close-ups). Thank you!!
My dear Internet Dad! Thank you so much! I really want to hug you - today was the day no one could help me, so I had to change two tires by myself. My dad only taught my brothers but not me. And yesterday my tire exploded on the highway, and my closest brother is 4000 km away. And now, in less than a day I can ride my car again! At least I'll be able to drive it to the service to check everything without losing my last pieces of salary. My best hugs to you, daddy. You can be proud. =)
I’d love to help return the favor and support you!! Don’t be afraid to monetize your videos. I know I wouldn’t mind watching an ad or two.. practically everything else I watch has them. Keep up the good work!!
I lost my Dad when I was 13 I'm now 54 yo woman I still need my dad thanks for telling the things that your doing. I've never really had a close role model to teach me so blessings to you.
I hope you know how much this means to us! My dad is an alcoholic and drug addict and I would never have learned to be an independent person without you. You've inspired me to take my "common knowledge" education into my own hands. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart dad ❤
Make sure you always have your parking brake/emergency brake on also!! I forgot one time and almost had my car fall on the ground with the jack under it
Thank you for not editing out the longer parts! I feel some say "Then you tighten the lug nuts and BAM all done" like what. I love that we saw the whole process all the way through to know how long it should take :)
I’ve always wanted to know how to change a tire! Now I know. Thanks Dad. I don’t know if I can even call you that cause I’m 35... but I appreciate you 🙏🏽 Happy early Fathers Day. Now I have a reason to celebrate ❤️ p.s. gotta love how you said thank you for watching just before you showed us something you forgot to show us lol 💖 pure gold 💛💛💛
This would be me if I made a UA-cam video, “Ok see ya later. Wups forgot something! ” lol. One thing that may have been nice to add is a close up of where you put the jack on the car so people could see what you were talking about. Glad you’re doing this. My dad was (is) in my life but never showed me how to do this stuff.
It's in your owners manual. And not trying to be sarcastic either... If you're not sure your owners manual should always have a detailed breakdown of where the safe jack points are for your specific vehicle
I changed my first tire yesterday I knew how to do everything after watching the video. zero help thank you very much keep up with the videos tons of people needs a dad like you
This man deserves all the recognition and appreciation imaginable and then some. His DNA should be bottled and available to anyone and everyone who could benefit from his brain and/or his heart. In a perfect world, he and I would be neighbors.
I have a dad who has supported me and genuinely cares (and so I'm still pretty fortunate) - but the only thing he ever taught me how to do was lift weights. If it was anything else, he'd insist on doing it himself without help. I'm over 30 now, and there's too many things I still don't know how to do. Thanks for showing people like me how to do this stuff.
I appreciate the thourough walk through here, I never knew about the star pattern thing! It makes sense why it's so hard for me to get the tire back on
see my dad has taught me how to do stuff like this, but i’ve never needed to change a tire, so i’ve forgotten how to do it. it’s good to have a repository of dad knowledge at hand haha
Thank you very much for sharing this. My husband passed when my kids were teenagers and was not really able to teach his kids this stuff. Lucky for me I chanced upon this in the internet... even I got to learn how to change a tire!
I was very lucky to have a dad who was a lot like you, and taught me how to do many things. He passed away last year. I’ve thought often about what I would do if I had a question about how to fix or do something now that he’s not here. For example, somehow we never covered changing a tire! Of course the Internet has all the answers. But it’s something else when it comes from a dad. Thanks for reminding me of him and for sharing your talents. 💜
My mother had to show me how to change a tire when I was about 13 years old because my father wasn't around. I still have the picture she took of me in action. Thanks mom! Great video!
A suggestion: Buy an "X-shaped" lug wrench and keep in the car. This will be more effective, and give you more leverage, particularly if a garage has used power wrench to tighten the lug nuts.
I lost my dad when I had 16 years, and always had that feeling, who's going to show me this things...? It's so difficult don't have someone to ask... But your videos, Let me tell you that's some of the sweetest thing that I've ever seen. Thank you! ♥️
It’s lovely to watch him show us these things. I get emotional. I never had a dad growing up. Everything I know today like this is self taught. Thank you
when i was little (like 11-12) i remember my dad changing all the tires on our car with my older brothers. i was there, bothering them cuz i wanted to spend time with them and genuinely wanted to learn how to do it. my dad told me to go back inside, i was getting in the way, and i didn't need to know how change a tire, "You're a girl, that kinda shit should always be done for you." he's a great dad, but there's a lot he didn't teach me. I'm 18 now and i finally know how to do it, thank you.
I lost my dad when I was 7 it's been 5 yrs since my dad left me and I'm doing fine a week ago I found about his channel and I decided to wacth it and this man is the best he deserves everything he tought me so much and I wanna thank him for that
This man deserves an award for being the internets best dad

I just love how this is NOT a perfect tutorial. It's just so REAL. It's ain't perfect but it is RIGHT. Thanks Dad.
Thank you, I have been more than willing to admit that I am not the best at anything, just trying to give people one way of doing things. I truly appreciate your comment. 🙏
My heart feels so happy knowing there're men like this in the world. You restore my faith in humanity, sir.
Instant subscribe for me.
Me too!
The wind chimes, the soft wind sounds on the mic
Yup, relaxing
You can hear the neighbors saying things like "you have a beautiful home!" in the background too. Everything about this video is like a warm hug 🥰
dad's ASMR
One important element I'd like to add is: know where the jack is in your car. Know where the spare tire is. Get them out and look at them before you're in an emergency. When you're driving somewhere, know what number you're going to call if you want a tow. Alternatively: in the US, there's Roadside Assistance in many areas, so watch for the signs advertising the number. (Roadside Assistance saved my life once! So now anytime I drive more than an hour i'm always looking for the signs with the local roadside assistance number.)
Thanks for the great video!
stop trying to steal the spotlight, you ain't dad
Underground Industry you ain’t my really dad! 😭😂
You ain’t my daughter!
@@jrod8618 dude no let him talk, we get TWO dads
@@ethancooper1056 No only one!
Oh my Gosh, I’m watching this in 2024!!! Thank you for your incredible work. You have no idea the impact you have!
Saw this guy on a meme page. Having a father, Especially one like this, would be everything🙌🏽
I’m literally crying with this. Never been close with my dad and almost everything had to teach myself. Thank you very much 🥰
Me too. He's our Dad now. This, this is what a good Dad is like.
Literally
THANK YOU for telling us the spare tire is NOT a replacement. My dad and i share a truck and one day my friend asked to borrow it to help her move out of her apartment and the tire blew out out of nowhere! Since my dad and I share it, I assumed he'd know if it were a bad tire we were using since he has a general knowledge of vehicle maintenance. Roadside Assistance helped her out and I was so embarrassed and ashamed I'd lent my friend a truck with a bad tire. They hooked up the spare I had, and later I asked my father how long would the spare last and he told me a few weeks or so. That tire blew out 2 days later at another friends house where I was supposed to pick her up and take her out to eat, and HER dad had to help me. I was so thankful, but also saddened that my friend's father was more caring about my well being than my own, and was very surprised I was driving around on a spare. I feel horrible to this day knowing not only could I have gotten seriously hurt, but also my passenger. Thank you for making these videos, you're helping so many people!
Wow what a story! That's good nothing bad could have happened more.
Thank you for sharing your story! I didnt know that either
It just depends on the tire. Some vehicles, like Jeeps usually, have a spare that’s the same as the other 4. You’d probably be fine driving on that until payday or whatever but you’d still wanna get it fixed because now you have one brand new tire and 3 that aren’t, lol.
Try to give your dad. I screw up all the time as a father and I would be crushed if my kids held anything against me.
Everyone: emotional story about their dad
Me: I’m broken down and need help
Dad?..
😂 😂
Moron to
@@ishaslam what are you saying?
Me rn😭😭😭😭😭
Dad, How do I stop being jealous for not having a dad? Thank you for this videos. I don't even drive but I can just watch the whole thing this is just so genuine 🥺
My dad passed in 2016 and this has me in tears thinking of him teaching me how to do this, change my oil, fish, exc. I miss him so much.
Never thought I'd ever cry at someone changing a tyre
This man is amazing for opening this channel up
Thank you for being that father figure
Please keep up the good work
Tbm to chorando 😿
Cry?
He really took the time to replace a good tire then put it back on just to show us how to do it:’( he’s the best
This man deserves to be named the best dad of the whole century. he knows what all of us that dont have a dad go through and he is trying to help us out as much as he can and im happy that people like this still exist. keep doing what your doing internet dad💪🏼💪🏼
I’m going to cry, my dad left when I was born and this literally is amazing
MAN I FINALLY HAD SOMEONE EXPLAINING THIS TO ME SINCE "IT'S NOT IMPORTANT YOU'RE A GIRL"
@Douglas Olsson *facepalm intensifies*
MANSPLANING CHECCKKKK i hate men who do that.
@Douglas Olsson you're around the wrong women
@@poopoman5734 wtf is wrong with you? Are you actually that fucked in the head?
Anyone, male or female, that thinks this is a fool. The women in my life thankfully either know or want to know how to do this stuff and not be dependent. And the other men in my life agree that women should know and be able to, but would also gladly help if asked.
I really like your videos, this is a great idea! How about how to jumpstart a car battery for a future video? I had to do it for the first time recently and I was pretty scared. I would've appreciated a nice calming dad presence to help me haha
Hi Ella, I am planning to jump start a car for this week's video. 👍😃
@@DadhowdoI Thanks for the reply! I'll look forward to it
My dad never taught me how to mow a law properly
I tried it once and ended up killing all the grass in the front and backyard
@@aaronkis2570 You probably had the mower very low to the ground. As you are mowing you don't want the grass to cut too low, get into the sprout of the seed, it'll start to turn yellow.
Omg his tripod is a ladder, that’s so cute🥺
ladder is the best tripod obviously
The true dad spirit is with this man.
I've used all sorts of random shit as my tripod... ladder is high tech.
I’m happy I found this bloke.....my mum tagged me in a post about this and was like “Connor u don’t have a dad, u should watch these”.....thanks mum?
We all have a dad now!
Everyone "has" a dad. Some are just not around for whatever reason.
Just saying.. it makes a difference in the mind/emocional development this having/not having a dad/mom.
Thank you so much for this. My father never showed me how to do any of these things, he was essentially out of my life when I was 11 years old and was basically absent as a father even before that. This brought tears to my eyes that you are so kind to do this for people. I have always needed to know how to do these things and no one has ever shown me. Thank you for caring. It really feels like I am there with you while you are demonstrating these skills and I love all of the little tips as well to make things easier.
Thanks for the encouragement Cecelia 🙏
As someone who's dad never taught them this, I'm gonna watch all these videos, even if I don't need to shave as a girl 😅
Lol!
That’s what I just did 😂😂
We still need some tips for our shaving places! =)))
Hey I watched that one too. Imma be watching all the videos eventually. It is nice having someone talk on the backgroung when being alone in my apartment. And his talk is better for it than many other youtubers.
same!! 😅
This is so wholesome. The fact that none of this is professionally edited gives a sense of personal touch as well. Thank you so much, Internet Dad. Please do keep up at it!
"So we're golden there." Yup. This is legit.
My father taught my older sister how to change a tire. A few months later our parents separated so I've never learned. Thank you very much for showing & sharing!
I have a dad who may be not able to change tyre but loves me very very much. I have never appreciated it unless I see the comments of this cloud dad’s video. Having a dad itself is already a very very lucky thing. Wish you a happy Father’s Day!
My dad passed when I was 11 years old. UA-cam has been my resource for many repairs, thanks to people like you. Home maintenance and car maintenance videos are always helpful! Thank you!
my dad passed unexpectedly a couple months ago. we’re never really ready to lose our parents, but he was young and it was unexpected, and there was so much he never got a chance to teach me. thank you.
I’m so sorry for your loss🤍
Series suggestion: Dad advice. Specifically with relationships (family, friends, dating -- anything social)
Yes exactly this
"Dadvice" for full dad joke name
A couple of tips that might help, position the lug wrench so you can step on it if they are too tight to loosen by hand and the owners manual will tell you where to locate the jack because it's not always self evident. Great job.
As a woman who grew up without a dad, thank you! Thank you for all who you are educating and helping!
This man is the internet’s official father.
I can't thank you enough for this video! I've always been worried about not knowing how to do this and I appreciate your thorough walk-through.
You're welcome! 🙏
Wow this videos make me feel like my dad finally loves me. Seriously, I haven't felt the warm embrace of a fatherly figure since one cold night in the fall of 1991
I have no one to show me how to do this. Thank you for this video!! Sincerely. It made me a little sad, but I’m grateful for your time. You’re a good dad.
You know, you're helping me a lot. my dad died when I was 8 and it's very hard for me without him, but your videos help me a lot. I'm only 13. I do not know what I would do if it weren't for such kind people like you. I wish you all the best. Thank you for being there.
I'm sorry for your loss.😢🫂
I love how he kept saying bye and then coming back to give more information ❤️❤️
Thank you internet dad, my dad is around but he’s never been in life a lot. He constantly works and he cares enough to actually teach me helpful things like that, whenever I ask him he gets angry and calls people to do it for me. Thank you for teaching me.
even tho my dad is still in my life, he refuses to teach me the things he taught my brothers. keep up the good work! 👑👑👑👑
Really? Have you asked him straight up?
Watched your video before attempting changing my tire out due to a nail. And then a dad stopped by the road to help me. I was ready to do it myself because of your video!!! Thank you!
Thank you for being here for people who can’t or their father is not in their life anymore or has never been this channel is amazing really protect this channel!
You're absolutely right. The idea of having to change a tire when I've never had to do it before was very intimidating... Until your video!
I always knew where the tools and spare tire were and I was confident I'd be able to figure it out with the car manual at my own pace, and maybe calling a friend... My friends have always said it's easy, but I didn't think it would be 10-minutes-easy. Thanks for showing the whole thing and not editing out parts of the process.
Your video was so helpful and thorough. The bits at the end were great (close-ups).
Thank you!!
I always wondered how to use a jack.
They do the job, but they don't make 'em like they used to. :0)
@@DadhowdoI This is a dad-comment right here
Double H Huge daddy feel, even Huge-r dad potential.
“I WILL NOT DRIVE ON THE SPARE TIRE FOR LONG” 🙋🏽♀️ + ⭐️ pattern!!
I'm a mom and came here to learn myself how to change a flat. Thank you for your videos. They are very helpful.
My dear Internet Dad! Thank you so much! I really want to hug you - today was the day no one could help me, so I had to change two tires by myself. My dad only taught my brothers but not me. And yesterday my tire exploded on the highway, and my closest brother is 4000 km away. And now, in less than a day I can ride my car again! At least I'll be able to drive it to the service to check everything without losing my last pieces of salary.
My best hugs to you, daddy. You can be proud. =)
I do have a dad, but this is still really helpful and I love the idea.
Great video, you’re living proof not all hero’s wear capes!
Haha, thanks Kyle. :0)
I’d love to help return the favor and support you!! Don’t be afraid to monetize your videos. I know I wouldn’t mind watching an ad or two.. practically everything else I watch has them. Keep up the good work!!
I lost my Dad when I was 13 I'm now 54 yo woman I still need my dad thanks for telling the things that your doing. I've never really had a close role model to teach me so blessings to you.
I hope you know how much this means to us! My dad is an alcoholic and drug addict and I would never have learned to be an independent person without you. You've inspired me to take my "common knowledge" education into my own hands. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart dad ❤
Make sure you always have your parking brake/emergency brake on also!! I forgot one time and almost had my car fall on the ground with the jack under it
You clearly have such a beautiful soul
This is such great and thoughtful idea. My father wasn’t in my life either. This would have helped when I was younger: your awesome
Thanks Delilah. 👍
@@DadhowdoI Please make more videos 🙏
Thank you for not editing out the longer parts! I feel some say "Then you tighten the lug nuts and BAM all done" like what. I love that we saw the whole process all the way through to know how long it should take :)
I’ve always wanted to know how to change a tire! Now I know. Thanks Dad. I don’t know if I can even call you that cause I’m 35... but I appreciate you 🙏🏽 Happy early Fathers Day. Now I have a reason to celebrate ❤️ p.s. gotta love how you said thank you for watching just before you showed us something you forgot to show us lol 💖 pure gold 💛💛💛
This would be me if I made a UA-cam video, “Ok see ya later. Wups forgot something! ” lol. One thing that may have been nice to add is a close up of where you put the jack on the car so people could see what you were talking about. Glad you’re doing this. My dad was (is) in my life but never showed me how to do this stuff.
It's in your owners manual. And not trying to be sarcastic either... If you're not sure your owners manual should always have a detailed breakdown of where the safe jack points are for your specific vehicle
@@xenon1806 yup possible he didn't show it so people don't just copy it and have it fail.
Also..you can google it if the owners manual is too much
I always wanted to know how to change a tire but my dad used to tell me I didn't need to know how. "It's men's work". Certainly not! Thanks
"A woman should know how to change a tire, but should never have to"
I've had to change a boyfriends tire before. Every person who drives should know how because you never know when a tire will blow.
@@natalieh9300 that's not how it works! it's simple u drive? U shluld know that
@@natalieh9300 and u should do it
God bless you, sir. I’m happy there’s still humanity left in the world.
I changed my first tire yesterday I knew how to do everything after watching the video. zero help thank you very much keep up with the videos tons of people needs a dad like you
This man deserves all the recognition and appreciation imaginable and then some. His DNA should be bottled and available to anyone and everyone who could benefit from his brain and/or his heart. In a perfect world, he and I would be neighbors.
I have a dad who has supported me and genuinely cares (and so I'm still pretty fortunate) - but the only thing he ever taught me how to do was lift weights. If it was anything else, he'd insist on doing it himself without help. I'm over 30 now, and there's too many things I still don't know how to do. Thanks for showing people like me how to do this stuff.
I appreciate the thourough walk through here, I never knew about the star pattern thing! It makes sense why it's so hard for me to get the tire back on
see my dad has taught me how to do stuff like this, but i’ve never needed to change a tire, so i’ve forgotten how to do it. it’s good to have a repository of dad knowledge at hand haha
In my opinion this is the most necessary blog in the whole network! Hello from Uzbekistan!
Thank you very much for sharing this. My husband passed when my kids were teenagers and was not really able to teach his kids this stuff. Lucky for me I chanced upon this in the internet... even I got to learn how to change a tire!
This gave me more fatherly vibes in 13 minutes than I've had all year I love this thank you 💜💜
I don't even have a car, but you never know when you'll need this kind of knowledge. Thanks!
I was very lucky to have a dad who was a lot like you, and taught me how to do many things. He passed away last year. I’ve thought often about what I would do if I had a question about how to fix or do something now that he’s not here. For example, somehow we never covered changing a tire! Of course the Internet has all the answers. But it’s something else when it comes from a dad. Thanks for reminding me of him and for sharing your talents. 💜
This channel has made me cry. My Dad died in 2007 and there's so much stuff he would have shown me that I can find out here ❤️
My mother had to show me how to change a tire when I was about 13 years old because my father wasn't around. I still have the picture she took of me in action. Thanks mom! Great video!
A suggestion: Buy an "X-shaped" lug wrench and keep in the car. This will be more effective, and give you more leverage, particularly if a garage has used power wrench to tighten the lug nuts.
I lost my dad when I had 16 years, and always had that feeling, who's going to show me this things...? It's so difficult don't have someone to ask... But your videos, Let me tell you that's some of the sweetest thing that I've ever seen. Thank you! ♥️
It’s lovely to watch him show us these things. I get emotional. I never had a dad growing up. Everything I know today like this is self taught. Thank you
As a 23 year old I want you to know how important this video is to might at this very moment.
Thanks dad.
when i was little (like 11-12) i remember my dad changing all the tires on our car with my older brothers. i was there, bothering them cuz i wanted to spend time with them and genuinely wanted to learn how to do it. my dad told me to go back inside, i was getting in the way, and i didn't need to know how change a tire, "You're a girl, that kinda shit should always be done for you." he's a great dad, but there's a lot he didn't teach me. I'm 18 now and i finally know how to do it, thank you.
I lost my dad when I was 7 it's been 5 yrs since my dad left me and I'm doing fine a week ago I found about his channel and I decided to wacth it and this man is the best he deserves everything he tought me so much and I wanna thank him for that
