Me: Okay, UA-cam, I'll trust you on this one. Spouse: What are you watching? Me: Team of Korean guys unclogging a toilet drain. Spouse: Why are you watching that?! Me: UA-cam said to do it!!
I know you have said in other videos that it is a very new concept in South Korea for citizens to not pour oil and grease down the drain but I also watch a lot of videos from the UK and they have same problem all the time too. I know in Canada, my grandma used to pour the grease down the drain as well. People all over the world pour grease down the drain no matter how advance the plumbing/sewer system is. I think it is mostly a generational thing and I hope that as younger people grow older, it will be very very rare for grease and oil to be dumped in the drain.
I’m 50 and have never poured grease down the drain and neither did my parents. The grease always go into a can and you wait for it to gel up and throw it into the trash. It really seams like a common sense thing to me.
@@Hasenfeffer1 same but in my experience, older generations pour it down the drain and then pour boiling water down the drain. You cant obviously do that with any PVC pipe drains and shouldn't do it anyway but that's what the quite older generations do, in my experience anyways
@@QuimBeeLivingstone I once poured oil from canned mussels down the kitchen sink drain, thinking that oil isn't the same as grease (it didn't freeze in the fridge), and it would be fine, I quickly realized what I've done and I started googling what to do, I read about the boiling water advice, so I did that, but after I did it, I realized that boiling water could damage PVC pipes, so I opened the tap and started to wash it off with some warm water. To my luck the pipes somehow survived that, but the sink trap didn't, it started leaking and got to be replaced after... Not sure how this could actually happen to me, it's like I have made one bad decision after another... And yes, I'm 30 years old. =/
@@Hasenfeffer1 My grandparents would never throw the grease away. Waste of good grease. You could spread that shit on a sandwich and eat it. You could reuse it while cooking, etc. How healthy it was, questionable at best, but I don't know their cooking was astoundingly good.
I reckon Ratty and DrainAddict would be impressed with that. Legendary indeed - well done guys! So many years of someone pouring something down the drain - that person needs a slap.
This was absolutely fantastic. The hard work that went into cleaning these poor pipes was above and beyond what was expected. Your hard work and dedication made some people super happy, knowing that they won't flood again for awhile. I know Ratty and Ollie would be super proud of your hard work, like your subs are. Keep it up!!🥰😘😍😁
It's so good to see that you explain everything to people, so they can know exactly what you are doing, and the fact that you work flawlessly it makes me want to go and live in Korea (not many companies or even workers in my country are as soft spoken and precise as you are, most of them are a**holes and you can tell that they don't like what they're doing)
I don't think people realize that having working plumbing and electric is basically what separates first and 3rd world. I take this back the Korean people seems to appreciate these guys they get it.
This channel has taught me that you might get a go pro cheaper second hand but it might have been through some real stuff in its days so be careful what you get second hand
I was sucked into these videos (pun intended) with Drain Addict, but I think you and Plumber Story do a better job at explaining what is going on. Great videos, greetings from Germany! :D
Many contractors here in the United States, after viewing both the percentage of blockage and the mentioned poor slope of the pipe, would recommend cutting out the whole pipe and redoing it. Either way, the cost would be an arm and a leg here.
Funny there's Eddy Wally, a very famous Belgian, let's say, variaty/schlager singer in the clip. He's famous for his 'wauw' and 'geweldig'/'amazing'. He sold handbags on the market and was an artist. Yes he was very famous. No idea how he did that but he did it.
The camera was going through water at the end, so there is a low spot in the drain. The oil would stick to the top of the pipe as it hardened. It would just build up layer by layer as they saw. It wouldn’t take much oil each time to build up thick over time.
In Australia most people know that fats, oils and grease cannot be put in the drain. So blockages like this are uncommon. DA doesnt see this level of grease accumulation. But he sees plenty of tree roots, and they damage as well as block the pipes. No one wins with drain problems.
Householders won't stop putting oil and wipes down the drain/toilet until it gets to this point and they have to pay for its removal. Or do they keep doing it and you have to return?
The smell is always there even through masks depending on just how horrible it is You do get used to it and are able to continue working but it never becomes just something that you dont really think is really nasty
I’m amazed at the miserable conditions of the streets and the concrete..everywhere there is mess piled up..laundry rooms,bathrooms, hallways..yuck. They need a larger cutting head..megaquattro…
Here's the part 1

@Callen Emory No I don’t care
I like how they are all so soft spoken and joke around enjoying their work! Good job!
I don't speak the same language as them, but, it looked like it was going to get rough with the screwdriver in the beginning.
That one dislike is the person responsible for dumping all that oil in there
lol
I wonder if they ever figured out who was running the secret restaurant in their apartment lol.
Specifically In their bathroom 😆
Me: Trying to sleep
UA-cam: here watch these Korean plumbers til the sun comes up
Haha I just found them about 4 hours ago and have been binge watching them
Me: Okay, UA-cam, I'll trust you on this one.
Spouse: What are you watching?
Me: Team of Korean guys unclogging a toilet drain.
Spouse: Why are you watching that?!
Me: UA-cam said to do it!!

In the 1940s, the US government had people save and donate their kitchen fats to the war effort. There’s a Disney propaganda short about it.

iirc Ollie watches this channel.
stfu
A damaged back doesn't come back. I'll have to use that haha ! Funny and awesome cooperative crew you all are.
It's so good to see that you explain everything to people, so they can know exactly what you are doing, and the fact that you work flawlessly it makes me want to go and live in Korea (not many companies or even workers in my country are as soft spoken and precise as you are, most of them are a**holes and you can tell that they don't like what they're doing)
Love the commentary and the small jokes during the job,makes this channel different than what I've seen
the legend of grease blob, no one would believe without video
Another excellent job guys! As always your videos are informative &I appreciate the english subtitles! Love from the USA 🇺🇸
I don't think people realize that having working plumbing and electric is basically what separates first and 3rd world. I take this back the Korean people seems to appreciate these guys they get it.
When this whole situation is over, maybe DrainAddict could go on a holiday to Korea and work with you guys for a day or two.
Yes, but I have noticed, Drain Addict takes joy in destroying your yard sometimes.... I love it!
You guys have SO MUCH personality, I love it! Your sound effects are great as well!
Binge watching all of their videos. This is so satisfying! I'm joining The Drain Club now!
That was EPIC!!
Definitely worthy of a two part video.
Thank you. Awesome job 👍
I live in the United States and use to work for a plumbing company. You guys did a great job! Awesome video!
This channel has taught me that you might get a go pro cheaper second hand but it might have been through some real stuff in its days so be careful what you get second hand
Hahaha... i love watching your videos... all of you are so cute... so funny... Good health, happiness, luck and greetings from Germany
Feels good to see all that oily stuff gets cleaned up from the pipes
Wow! Awesome job! Great teammates and teamwork! I love how each of you asks if the others are ok! Much love from Alabama, USA 🇺🇸
The backsound when u got those is like found golds. Hilarious and at the same time satisfying to saw it.
It's the sound effect that plays when Mario picks up a coin lol
I was sucked into these videos (pun intended) with Drain Addict, but I think you and Plumber Story do a better job at explaining what is going on. Great videos, greetings from Germany! :D
Your pun gonna drain alright
So all of that is from pouring cooking grease down the sink or toilet? Unbelievable!!!! Great video!!!
I’d send a few chunks to the lab for analysis! Great job guys, that was unreal...👍🏼👍🏼
That oil had to be prehistoric!! Kudos to your team for getting that unclogged!!
You guys are awesome! From North Carolina USA
ahhh FINALLY! ive been waiting for this! thank you for the awesome videos gentlemen!
That was alot! They need to start saving their coffee cans
forbidden honeycomb toffee😩😩
Damn, this was SOOO satisfying 🤤
The gift that keeps on giving!
The sounds make this way more cute than it really is! I love it! 😊❤
Some good laugh guys. Nice job. Thanks. Australia.
If that amount was the ones they caught, just imagine the amount of oil sludge that passed them :0
already watched all your guys videos, waiting for more!! Thank you for the great content!!
Many contractors here in the United States, after viewing both the percentage of blockage and the mentioned poor slope of the pipe, would recommend cutting out the whole pipe and redoing it. Either way, the cost would be an arm and a leg here.
ratty would have a feast with that grease.... Great work guys...
Very enjoyable with the antics. Have a great day.
Well done guys. You do a great job 👍🏻😊
Can't believe I'm this excited to watch poop 💩 pipes getting cleaned 😂
I was surprised to hear the woman brought coffee ☕️out for you guys I thought you like tea🫖. 😎👍🏻
My wife is a plumber here in Alabama she has described some of this but seeing it is something else
These guys are hilarious. Lol I was waiting for this video. That's some crazy oil. Geez. Can't imagine the bill afterwards. 🤣
Looks like a work out ,and you guys do a great job,
Awesome. Was really waiting for you guys to upload this. Especially after the first vid
Those big grease lumps looks like how a butterfinger looks like when it breaks apart.
Any desire for a butterfingers is now gone. thanks BDK!
Great teamwork
Hello from japan!
wow this was legendary grease!
looked like cheese.
great job getthg done that must be tired.
see you on next youtube!
Hi
Excellent work! Also great video editing.
You guys were in a really good mood in this one hahaha
What happened to all the chunks that flew past the pipe opening too fast to be pulled out with that long grabber? Where did they end up?
K-Ratty
Good video. The second best drain channel I’ve found so far. Sorry, Ollie and Ratty are #1.
Do you guys talk to the people about not flushing grease/oil down the sewer?
Sure
This was so satisfying to watch 😄
Ratty is a international star
A new alternative to chalk... And it is biodegradable
You guys are funny...great work lots of grease
I'm sitting here thinking of the bill. Ouch. And you all earned it.
Funny there's Eddy Wally, a very famous Belgian, let's say, variaty/schlager singer in the clip. He's famous for his 'wauw' and 'geweldig'/'amazing'. He sold handbags on the market and was an artist. Yes he was very famous. No idea how he did that but he did it.
You guys are hilarious! :)
there is a cleaning head that vibrates to knock concrete in pipes loose..could it not be used for grease?
Another good one. This is the first time I have seen grease or oil build-up like that. I don't understand how it gets so hard.
The camera was going through water at the end, so there is a low spot in the drain. The oil would stick to the top of the pipe as it hardened. It would just build up layer by layer as they saw. It wouldn’t take much oil each time to build up thick over time.
I wonder if minerals in water reacted with washing powder and oils?
U better have watched this @DrainAddict😂😂

Good job, I would have cried !
You call it "oil". I call it ✨ *PLUMBERS GOLD* ✨
당신은 그것을 "기름"이라고 부릅니다. 나는 그것을 배관공의 금이라고 부른다.
Good work guys, so many greasebergs. Good descriptions as you work. Did you have clean out the manhole also? Thanks for the video!
Great another one.
The oil kinda reminds me of a butterfinger. Just needs chocolate lol
I literally thought the same thing. Lol.
that "sungmin-ah.. " kinda addictive hahaha
Now i know where chick-o-sticks and the inside of butterfingers come from
What is that bgm? And my god that is one greased up pipeline
Did you find any stuff toy in drain that causes blockages?
Forbidden Butterfinger
Great effort! 👍
Its like cleaning your ears 🤣
Blocked drain...All good! 👍
This needs to be an anime.... 🌽🐭
Householders won't stop putting oil and wipes down the drain/toilet until it gets to this point and they have to pay for its removal. Or do they keep doing it and you have to return?
0:30 Sounds like "Yeah". 👍
Super job!!
This was such a journey from start to finish. I'm still wondering what caused the great oil dam though.
Hi
You talking about Ratty 😔😔Lol 😂😂🤘😆
im just curious, do you still smell how bad the smell was? or you have something to prevent the smell entering your nose?
The smell is always there even through masks depending on just how horrible it is
You do get used to it and are able to continue working but it never becomes just something that you dont really think is really nasty
I’m amazed at the miserable conditions of the streets and the concrete..everywhere there is mess piled up..laundry rooms,bathrooms, hallways..yuck. They need a larger cutting head..megaquattro…
This is where cadburys crunchie bars come from.
This is great content
A vibrating head would break up the solid lumps faster. The type they used to break up concrete in pipes.
these videos have same energy as dr pimple popper
squeaky clean, good job
dose the oil chunks smell?
I want to work with you guys lol 😆 👌
what happens with all the oil you dident pick up? normaly you use that net scoop in the sump to catch it
Cheers from France 🇫🇷
Can you given me info on your flex & your camera please? 🙏
My Flex is sold by Korean company but Ridgid sells these Flex Shaft. Camera is from China. You may find it from Aliexpress
I don't speak Korean but I would love working for you guys.
