    ingenious, I never tried using towels to soak up the water, I usually use a small straw to kinda sift the water into small paper cups and make a thousand trips to the farthest sink in my house, huge time saver!

    you know, a lot of people on here are complaining that this did not help them at all. it helped me out because i have never had to do something like this. i might not hire a repair man because my husband might be able to do it. i don't have carpet near my washer so who cares about that part. what it did do was help me learn how to locate where the leak was coming from.

    Great video! Though I am very concerned about using multiple towels at once (like the towel-trained professional shown above). Is there any online resources for those tricky dual-towel techniques, a school perhaps? Nevertheless, this video has helped me completely repair not only my washer, but my reputation. Now my friends can feel confident about walking through my laundry room without having to take off their shoes. I'll subscribe WITH a thumbs up... god knows you've earned it.

Elon Musk (Tesla, SpaceX, etc.) has finally released the TurboTowel500 on their website, however it's said to already be sold-out. If anyone that was involved in this video could reach out... I'm willing to start a GoFundMe campaign to get the advanced techniques out to the masses asap. God bless.

    glad to know literally every person in the comments are not funny
    the guy is just trying to inform people about what to do for your leaking washer
    yeah the first half of the video is about drying up stuff, but he still touches on the fact of how to best inform your repair guy(if you get one) on what kind of leak is going on
    and to people who insist on repairing it yourself, go ahead, see how that fairs you
    doubt you're a professional and DIYing mechanical repairs is just going to fuck up your washer even more
    just let the guy inform people, regardless of how common sense it sounds, he's not hurting anyone
    not everyone is gonna know common sense
    don't act like you weren't a child still learning about the world once, you at some point had little to no common sense too

I have a feeling it may be the Center Post gasket. I have video of it leaking on both sides.
