For me it is because watching him gives the immediate satisfaction of (him) having done something useful. Can't say that from my job. I do not have a "one, two, three...." moment in my job.
Thank goodness I watch your videos. Had a serious blockage in my storm water pipe today. Used the hose to find it, dug it up and cut open the pipe. Freaking tree roots! Used your patch technique to repair the pipe and flushed the line. You saved me some cash today. Thanks Oliver.
Just found this guy's channel and it's safe to say it is the most revolting thing I have ever seen. At the same time I am so grateful that there are men brave enough to do this work so life is better for all of us. Respect
Before? I wouldn't believe my eyes and think "what a nutter!" Now? I would come to a screeching halt across the sidewalk, jump out and give the good man a firm hand and shoulder tap!
Very gentlemanly of you and Ratty to wait and not blast roots and mud all over the lady and her little one in the stroller. In this day and age common acts of decency seem to be getting more and more scarce.
I love that you always explain the situation! and always show us what you're using to do what. Really adds to the experience, all learning little bit at a time, one day we'll all be pros!
My 7 yr old son has always been interested in pipes and drains and he is a HUGE fan. He loves Ratty and wants to be a plumber when he grows up! -Fans from SC, USA
@@DrainAddict - Might be wort a try to contact them to see if they will sponsor you and then get in touch with RIGID because they need to Spencer’s you too 😁 I’ll say this.....Ollie, you definitely have a shitty job 😆 yet you have such a passion for doing it and you do such a great job! Ratti could be a little more helpful but he’s always playing on the double barrel in the street 😆😆 Another note for you regarding your GoPro, get you a flat mount and attach it to the top side of the bill of your hat. You can then adjust it to see what you are doing and then you don’t have to hold it at all or have anyone hold it for you. If you want to see what I’m talking about, go to the UA-cam Northants Magnet Fishing and see how Nigel has his mounted on his hat, gives a great perspective of what you are doing. Cheers mate and keep cleaning out those drains! By the way, why was that one foaming and why the hell dis the water turn red????
I remember seeing Drain addict in my recommended list, and intrigued I clicked and watched, i was disgusted, yet couldn’t stop watching. Checked out more videos, and realized drain addict is FASCINATING, now whenever Ollie and Ratty have a new video up I get pretty excited. Lol. Keep up the good work, much love from the USA.
The moment I saw the foam come up, I knew we had a good handful of roots coming. No spectacular saplings in the pipes this time, just a basic crush and break. Michael shouldn't have any more headaches than the usual cut driveway, good for him 👍🏼 Hopefully he remembers to order 100mm, that 90 looks pretty rubbish. Did someone drop red dye up at the start of the storm drain? Because that's not the worst idea ever. Good immediate feedback that the blockage was pierced. LOL, playing car chicken with the SeeSnake 🤣 Only you, Ollie...
Hey Ollie, take it easy no need to be so rough you made it bleed lol just teasing. What would happen if a body part came out and what's the most unusual thing that came out of a pipe that you saw. So whats next for Drain Addict keep up the good work and see you in the next video🤔💪😉👍
We love the videos and your team. If possible try and make separate playlists for storm drains and sewers. Also maybe tie a lifeline around ratty. It seems he likes doing up close pipe inspections
Why do they use such thin wall stuff underground there? why not use schedule 40 abs? The material price difference is negligible especially when you factor in labor.
Did Ollie find the buried heating fuel tank? Over here heating fuel (#2 Diesel kinda) is not taxed so they dye it red. Unless he killed ratties brother?
That thin walled crap is will just asking for more breaks seeing as it is old. So I would just go all in and replace the entire pipe, yes you have to dig up the driveway, but preventing future blockages is a good thing.
Ollie at his finest as always. Ratty doing what he usually does makes sure Ollie gets the “all good!👍” No corn lately for ratty that’s ok we’ll be root-ing for ya that some will come your way.
Is is weird i always get excited when i see the Double Barrel come out? That pipe was chockers with ROOTS ! Nothing gets in the way of the lil Axe Penetrator. Ratty got a scarf out of it too, All good!
Episode 500: He unclogs 10 storm drains for free because it's International Storm Drain Day. And a guy in a rat suit will be waving around an advertisement sign.
All I could think of was The Shining when that red water started flowing. When they make the Drain Addict movie, Nicholson must play Ollie. REDЯUM! REDЯUM!
I wonder how in the world I've become addicted to watching an Aussie with a toy rat clear drains 10,000 miles away ?!??!
Chris Helms I blame it on “The VID”.
Lol
Same. It’s a mystery but one addiction I won’t give up.
Ratty is not to be toyed with 🐀
For me it is because watching him gives the immediate satisfaction of (him) having done something useful. Can't say that from my job. I do not have a "one, two, three...." moment in my job.
Ollie turning stormwater into wine.
Plumbergod 😎
He's the Jesus of plumbers.
More like rootbeer
When the Honda starts, everyone knows what time it is.
Yep... the Honda that never fails..
Reminds me of Y-tuber Scotty Kilmer Rev your engines.
It's time for v-tec!
Vader time?
ua-cam.com/video/interaction/v-deo.html
I wonder if the people on the sidewalk know how close to a legend they were.
😂🐀
Yeah, but the Ratty was hiding, they didn't see him.
Depends if they saw the walk.
@@DrainAddict Wow gusta

lieutenant 11 That was only storm drain water, wait till he has a sewer drain to deal with, then you’ll be glad you can’t smell it. 🥴
@@donnawoodman6249 yh I just surfed his channel. The way he splashes about in poo wearing short sleeves and ripped gloves just scares me
Mike Rowe needs to visit Ollie. It’s definitely a dirty job.
Lieutenant 11..watch drain addict 360..i flinched with the first pipe and the second one made me look away and hold my breath 😁 but i keep watching
Had us in the first half not gonna lie
The public has no idea the valuable service you provide. Well done.
I love storm water episodes the mostest-mostest! They are my fav! I'm glad to see more and more of them lately.
Can we all agree that Ollie is the original Untouchable? Nothing phases him!
Both my children now walk around saying "have some corn ratty"
Some Adults (well, me anyway) go around saying "Blocked Drain" "Corn" "Ratty"....🤣
joeylawn I can confirm. It’s an inside joke with my friends and I lol
My kids all laugh when we say “all good” with a thumbs up. Even my 1 year old loves it!
Lol
How old are they lol
Imagine driving by and seeing this guy walking around with a gopro attached to himself and swinging his arms way too high.
Before? I wouldn't believe my eyes and think "what a nutter!"
Now? I would come to a screeching halt across the sidewalk, jump out and give the good man a firm hand and shoulder tap!
Ollie, you've taught me so much! The moment I saw those soapy bubbles I knew it was those pesky porcupines again! As always, great job!
I love seeing your shadow when you do the NPC walk.. cracks me up every time
Very gentlemanly of you and Ratty to wait and not blast roots and mud all over the lady and her little one in the stroller. In this day and age common acts of decency seem to be getting more and more scarce.
That is so true!!
Great to watch you work. Very therapeutic. 🥰😍
I love that you always explain the situation! and always show us what you're using to do what. Really adds to the experience, all learning little bit at a time, one day we'll all be pros!
I love it when people walk by and don’t even realize they’re passing a celebrity lol. Great video as always 😂🤙
The sound of the double barrel is just amazing!! Thank you Ollie!!!
Great videos. I like the bird songs, and kookaburras laughing. lol
Ratty definitely looks good in a “fur” coat, an excellent job today. 💚💚
"I might have killed something up there" I died
I died when he said that then I began to wonder......maybe he did kill something...lol
Might have the police checks this houses basement. : P
"hmm.... Blocked drain"
Everybody step back! I'm comin' with the Little Penetrator! ;)
He’d be able to record a unique birth video...
"This one might get messy"
Y'all heard of cursed but what the hell is this
michaeltodd63 might need the root cutter for the umbilical cord.
Post 10 would not appreciate blocking the drain by the van.
Lol
No he would not. 😄
He is doing it the old fashioned way
I’ve been waiting to find a comment about Post10 on this channel, lol
I think they’d get into an argument over which is worse beavers or roots.
Excellent just arrived home from work and a new video waiting for me. Thank you ollie and Ratty.
Episode 500, he unblocks his own drain ;)
500th episode is to the proctologist office to clear their drains. 😂
I tried to find episode 500 😂😂😂
Almost there. Suspense is building. Give it your best, Rati.
Or he eats corn...hmm
#500: Ollie's colonoscopy
Every time he wipes the camera lens, I say thank you in ratty's voice 😜
Same!
Lol
same thing lol
My 7 yr old son has always been interested in pipes and drains and he is a HUGE fan. He loves Ratty and wants to be a plumber when he grows up! -Fans from SC, USA
I loooooove this video with mud and roots !! And no poop 🤣
Thank you !! 👌🏻👌🏻🤟🏻
I like the rain water drains before I take a nap, it helps keep the creepy dreams away.....lol Great video
4 englishlies Even the red water drains?
One minute in and straight to the "double barrel "... Im So In!!!!!
Nothing says "Weekend ahead" like a well-cranking Honda.
I know right
totally agree.
Honda should be paying for some advertising. That thing cranks up the first time, every time.
I agree !

Yah Honda 4-stroke are the best along side Yamaha .
Noticed the way you march! We’re you in the British Army! We had a recruite that walk the same way!! Great video
You’re intelligence and energy to your job is awesome! Love your videos!
Me: watched a video about a blocked drain
UA-cam Recommendations: “BOI YOU LIKE DRAINS!?? LET’S GO!!!!”
I only just started watching your channel and it's giving me an interest in getting a job as a plumber
And the face mask next to the outlet, the new debris of 2020. Only a matter of time before you are blasting these out of drains too.
I remember seeing Drain addict in my recommended list, and intrigued I clicked and watched, i was disgusted, yet couldn’t stop watching. Checked out more videos, and realized drain addict is FASCINATING, now whenever Ollie and Ratty have a new video up I get pretty excited. Lol. Keep up the good work, much love from the USA.
Michael was certainly not prepared were the job to go south. Sneakers, fleece pullover-those are not the tools of DrainGo. Bravo Ollie!
I went back and watched some of your earlier stuff and you can really see the difference in your cam skills versus the old days lol nicely done.
Whew! I didn’t know Ratty was on standby at the other drain. 😟 I was worried sick 🤒
I was thinking "Ratty's not bothered today because it was drainwater rather than sewerage - no corn"
Just can’t stop watching theses videos 👌
Just cannot wait for your videos and to see both of you. Ratty is a super ⭐️! Lots of problems but you fixed them.
Sometimes the little penetrator gives more satisfaction then going in straight with the double barrel :)
That's what my hubby says!!!!
Ram ram, gush!
It ain't the size of the wave, it's the motion in the ocean.
Is this sex talk?
Callie Masters what do you mean? He took 2 small penetrators and went straight to the roots 😂
The day I visit AU forget about the Opera... i will buy this man a beer!!! And a corn for ratty! Cheers from argentina!
imponente el trabajo que haces, muy buena herramienta,, ojala aca en Uruguay existiera esa herramienta!! saludos fraternal desde Young, Uruguay
DA punished that drain and made it bleed. Haha 😂 Best channel on UA-cam! Cheers.
I always look forward to Ratty's assessment of the situation.
Good job ! You have the best helper in the Word 🙄. Beautiful day....there were ice in the car windshield here 🤮🇨🇦❤️👍🏼✌🏼

LOL, playing car chicken with the SeeSnake 🤣 Only you, Ollie...
That red water was like a scene from poltergeist.
WTF was that?!
Strawberry soda
Lol the super high arm swings are getting me.
Like an bad npc walk or something XD
Straight to the double-barrel Respect !!!!
A very well liked comedian her in the UK has a walk like that John Cleese as Basil Fawlty !!
Manuel! Manuel!
A street drain and the double barrel. Two of my favorites. I have no life.
roots are my favorite type of blockage when they get unblocked
It's hard to beat the shame and scorn of a pipe full of wet wipes, though.
I thought foamy roots were my fave, then blood roots happened
This Fellow knows his business and it's very addicting watching him do his job !!
I usually enjoy these stormwater ones, but that red water was super concerning!
Especially as I was drinking red juice at the time haha
LOL, it was just the red flowers all mixed up, they're all over the ground next to the drain.
this dude is always chilled out
nothing like finishing a twelve hour shift and watching ollie do his thing
awesome👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Oh Man! You came up through the fridge and punctured the Kool-Aid jug! LOL
That was so sweet of Daddy. Making a camo nest for Rattie!
that Truck is Rad! never knew mazda still made pickup trucks! International markets are cool!
@Damnpunk 78 thought that was more defined as a Holden shape / el camino body?
Hey Ollie, take it easy no need to be so rough you made it bleed lol just teasing. What would happen if a body part came out and what's the most unusual thing that came out of a pipe that you saw. So whats next for Drain Addict keep up the good work and see you in the next video🤔💪😉👍
You know it's a good episode when Ollie breaks out the DOUBLE BARREL... Ratty is gonna need to go on some Government Sustenance here before long.
Just got my ratty sweatshirt this morning - haven’t seen any others in Paris yet despite being the fashion capital of the world :-)
I always sleep better after watching the double barrel in action!
I love foamy roots. Just so fun when suds come of of the drain. That red stuff, on the other hand, creeeeepy!😬💀
It would be nice if everyone had as much fun at work as you did yours.
No warning, straight to the DB!
90 degree bends in such drains are to be avoided. If there's going to be a blockage, a 90 degree bend will be glad to be involved in it.
We love the videos and your team. If possible try and make separate playlists for storm drains and sewers. Also maybe tie a lifeline around ratty. It seems he likes doing up close pipe inspections
I'm convinced that Ollie's arm swinging is some kind of code. Either that or dancing. Only Ratty knows for sure.
😂
It looks like Ollie's marching.
It's all good, before and after 😀.
Stay safe all, and thanks for sharing.
The arms and the robot noises is why I subscribed😂
Why do they use such thin wall stuff underground there? why not use schedule 40 abs? The material price difference is negligible especially when you factor in labor.
These are not new houses. This is 50-60+ year old construction.
Did Ollie find the buried heating fuel tank? Over here heating fuel (#2 Diesel kinda) is not taxed so they dye it red. Unless he killed ratties brother?
Good ... I never bored watching your attraction. 👍
That thin walled crap is will just asking for more breaks seeing as it is old.
So I would just go all in and replace the entire pipe, yes you have to dig up the driveway, but preventing future blockages is a good thing.
Oh yeah!!!!
that double barrel action never gets old.
Ollie at his finest as always. Ratty doing what he usually does makes sure Ollie gets the “all good!👍” No corn lately for ratty that’s ok we’ll be root-ing for ya that some will come your way.

At a way your the best! Start a franchise here in North America.

Always slightly concerning when the water flows red.
Yeah he just became a witness
It’s that time of the month for da females on da block 😂
"Hello, Danny." - creepy twins
I love watching these videos
Excellent work and thanks for the content stay safe and take care
one of the best drain cleaning experts with his assistant ratty!
Good morning everyone from wellington Somerset in the UK
Do you find yourself walking like that in your spare time ??? 😂 love it
How is the new Honda working plié u r the best at what u do
You just gotta love the walk 🙂
Wow his one of the best drian cleaners I have ever seen I love rsty to
Ollie don’t drink the Kool-Aid!!
i like these stormwater ones EDIT: ooh and the camera too what a treat
This one may be as strange as the mysterious case of the bubbles.
Hey Mate.. been watching that channel for some time.. great stuff keep coming, hope you doing something a.little special for number 500..
The master Ollie never disappoints.
For some reason my cat is obsessed with watching you. Her name is Soot and any time i put your channel on she comes over to watch intently
As a cat owner myself...thats funny 😄
I think Soot likes the look of Ratty 🐀
All I could think of was The Shining when that red water started flowing. When they make the Drain Addict movie, Nicholson must play Ollie. REDЯUM! REDЯUM!
