I nearly forgot, that bottle have been opened before hence you could have filled it with something else and just act drunk. Many on youtube do that fake shit.
When doing a drunk video be sure to leave the bottle unopened and record you open it for the first time.

Sadly, the Genius Bar has a lot of not-so-geniuses working there.

It's a challenge to do something you are good at, while drinking.

Sometimes people drink when they can't fix problems.
Louis: *drinks in between every step of fixing a complex problem*
"The first thing we do is...have another drink." LOL
Every other next step should start with that.
I’ve seen instructions that give drinking indicators
This reminds me of the old motorcycle shops I used to frequent in the 60's and 70's. They were untidy, grimy in fact, and the mechanics were grease to the elbows and frequently under the influence. But they could diagnose and fix damn near anything and they were passionate about their work. Today we have lots of flash, track lighting, chipper smiling sales people in running shoes, no hint of the smell of motor oil and exhaust and they can't fix shit. Huge improvement, simply huge.............
How old are you?
I mean, if you are addicted, it becomes your normal state.
If they can be shitfaced and still get the job done for a competitive rate, I'm not seeing the issue
"I wont get drunk off of this"
proceeds to throw tweezers at wall and knock over multimeter and call it drunk
the tweezers part was gold
Louis, I think you've stumbled on to something here... consider the following...
Given the reference "How many shots of Jager does Louis have to consume in order to be as dumb as a Genius bar Genius"... you could develop a Jager index for various repairs... for example:,
An extremely difficult repair requiring specialized equipment, and not doable by most repair people, would have a relatively low Jager index... (how many shots does it take to make Louis unable to repair the part...) vs a fairly simple repair that the genius bar genius (GBG) would also say is not repairable, would have a relatively high Jager index... perhaps an entire bottle...
Given enough trials, you may be able to estimate these values, and then rate your repairs in "Jager Index value". the higher the index, the more ridiculous the GBG assertion that it cannot be done.
I like this. A lot.
“This repair has a Jager Index value of 10 bottles.”
lmao, but alcohol poisoning
Chief Denis ikr hes a cat so he cant tollerate allot of it (alinitys cat)
@@miawpower8521 my reasoning is that, no amount of alcohol can make him as dumb as an apple genius, their dumbness transcends all known universes

what's funny is that he even acknowledges that it fell over and pushes to the side.

why's it feel like the Jager just heightened his skills lmao
Because he’s trying really hard not to fuck up, usually he just doesn’t care

Louis, Thank you for all your efforts. I'm a goldsmith and on occasion I drop a diamond or something on the floor that I just have to find. Here is a trick my dad tot me many years ago and I still use several times a month. Take a narrow beam flash light, turn off all the light, put the flashlight flat on the floor and fallow around the beam till you see the long shadow cast by your lost item. Give it a try next time your desperate, good luck, Billy
That's brilliant, Thanks man!
Tried and true, I second this method!
Non-mac laptop repair guy here , i use the same method when i fuck up and spill the tray with the screws.I always find all of them
Billy Proctor thanks for the tip I'll use it and it's a good motivation to keep my workspace clean.
Use the same method with a high powered laser, but first empty the cans into something resembling a stomach.
You explaining that they read the difference of each other, so you put the “ground” on something you expect to have no voltage, helped me so much in understanding that concept. Thank you.
28:25 you'll thank me later
Thank you.

It's a very old video but I have discovered this channel recently and going through all of Louis videos and this guy is my role model now. I even listen to his videos on my way to work I can listen to this man whole day.
29:48 whenever Rossmann gets passionate or upset about something he sounds like barry bee benson

I can't unhear this now
The only soldering video I have ever seen that made me think, "Maybe you _can_ have too much flux."
If someone tell you it cannot be repaired and you have to buy a new one, it's the real scam.

Looking at this in 2019 and laughing when Louis is talking about a channel having 1.4 million subs. He's so close to 1M subs now, what an awesome channel.
Update: now 1.84 million subscribers.
2 million
been watching you for years Louis, how did I miss this gold!🤣🤣🤣
You're way too good for this world, Louis. Keep being real.
i made a rude comment towards you in a previous video....but this video makes sense to me now. even if you are buzzed. You dont pander, and i appreciated that. Im sorry for the quick poor judgement. ps im using a Macbook Air and i wont ever buy another apple computer.
also subed
Crapple is evil.
I've never seen an apology on UA-cam before... this is a rare find indeed.
timmd909 believe it. I have Pepsi to thank.
I saw one in another Louis video - I wondered what dimension I had fallen into - the apologee gracefully accepted it as well.

I goddamn love this channel. Subscribed
the problem is that the genius bar people are trained to tell you these things, whether they're true or not. they're not alone. The big box I used to work at constantly instructed me to lie to customers to convince them to pay too much for unnecessary repairs or service. They kept saying "convince the customer they're getting higher quality service, so it's worth more." It's not, the local independent stores did the same, if not better, service for half the price. Shops run by people like you (or to a much lesser extent me) who know what they're doing are very rare nowadays because low skill technicians are easier to deal with by the companies that employ them. They don't want thinkers, they want salesmen in tech clothing and the impatient ignorant public are more than happy to oblige them.
It makes me sad :(
they are trained to tell you the device is not worth fixing.
Jordan Wu yes
So what you're telling me is that the "Genius Bar" is really a propaganda brigade? That makes sense, but it also makes me wonder how long it'll take before they start handing out packets all about how people like Louis are scammers, con artists, and representatives of Satan himself.
Graduated Navy’s micro-miniature repair course in 1983. Equipment & technique have come a long way since then. Jagermeister should have been a pre-requisite prior to class. Bravo Zulu on the video.
Louis, I'm currently fucked up off my ongoing depression and have been lurking around your videos for a while now. I'm in good health physically, but mentally completely disrupt; it was my dad's anniversary of his death yesterday (alcoholism over multiple years, an awful way to go for him and the family) and one of my closest childhood friends recently hanged himself (depression) which has really pushed me over the limit. Seeing you swig that first (and/or second/third) shot and spinning around in your chair like a little kid venturing off into his first capri sun sugar high had me laughing until tears came out. It's very rare for tears to escape my eyes these days with all the shielding my fucked up brain likes to output. You're one of the most genuine human beings on UA-cam currently and seeing you progress over the years has been nothing but awe-inspiring for me and fellow viewers I'm sure. You really take the bullshit out of this process and give us the cold-hard facts when it matters, despite all the rampant fanboyism present these days. Thanks for being you, much love from Arizona.
oh
It's terrible that you had to go through all that. I haven't had to put up with as much shit, but I also struggle a lot. In my case, what keeps me going is the thought that little by little, I'll be able to improve my life, but every person is different. Louis is one of those people that makes me recover faith in human kind. Anyway, I know this is a year later, but hope you are doing well!
Hey Man couldn't agree more seems honest and no nonsense. I'm sorry for your pain and loss intelligent content is cool.
Much ADDITIONAL LOVE from Phx... Arizona.
This is now my favorite youtube channel. I have watched about 20 of your videos over the last 2 days.
xXFIREWIREXx Thank you! How did you find this btw?
Louis Rossmann Not through looking for a drunken repair video i'm afraid. I think the title is too long to be click bait :). I found your channel initially through "why i don't use apple products" which i think was suggested viewing as i enjoy watching repair videos. I was the person who had the job interview on monday and commented on your other video. Check out my daft punk build if you can be bothered or have time - s1105.photobucket.com/user/firewire2/library/Led%20Daft%20Punk%20helmet?sort=2&page=1 Would like to hear your views. Cheers
Louis Rossmann Lou i see you use a hakko and i am getting new solder used for work whit JBC
irons and cheap useless ayoe and i alwalys ended use the jbc for all
works.
The hakko got low thermal inertia like jbc?
Well i hate waste money on equipament my last fail was a unit metter ended hate it becuse cray auto off and ended geting a brymen 867 which a mile away of uni-t shit awesome low ohm range and DC and AC for ripple monitoring DC to DC converters whitout need use the osciloscope.
I am closed for get it but need know how it works on big cocoper boards and heat recovering like JBCs.
+xXFIREWIREXx weak. I've watched 30 in the last day :)
+pufero1 I know it's not recommended to get clone soldering stations but I took risk and bought hakko clone from banggood and I'm using real hakko heads. Works perfectly.
I'm a Microsoft Consultant and all day I have to deal with people coming from the apple store( I work at best buy in a mall with an apple store) and the things those people tell them is just unreal. One of those "Geniuses" told a customer that apple uses special hardware that windows pc don't use... But i really enjoy your videos and this video was the one that made me subscribe.
+Chris Saunders A lobbyist told the senate & assemblypeople that if I repair an apple laptop motherboard with their schematics that I turn it into a PC by doing so and then misrepresent the repaired laptop to my customer as a mac when infact I have turned it into a PC so they don't release schematics to keep me from defrauding customers.
*****
YES!!
+Chris Saunders That's true though, the cases are unique to apple and windows doesn't use any hardware since it's an operating system.
You are fucking stupid. With your logic you are saying an HP laptop case will fit on a Dell laptop because they are both PC's. Dumb bitch have you noticed that Apple's are PC's ever since they switch from there PowerPC to x86-x64 Intel architecture in 2006? You know that PC's makers share the same processors as Apple? The difference is the OS.
Technically they're right. Apple does have a few special chips in the new MBP's. Looking at the T-something chip for the touchbar. Still a bullshit statement though
How hasn't this grown bigger? Just discovered this video.and glad I've been a subscriber!

Louis, I am a youth director at a church in California and part-time wanna be computer repair guy for the members of our church. One of my youth is interested in electrical engineering and stumbled upon your page. He is a huge fan and told me about it. You do such great work and you are such a delight to watch. I love your rants and your videos need to be part of a class on Business Ethics. Keep up the great work man, you rock!
+Robert Mees Thank you!
Watching this at 7am on a 2nd Christmas day and laughing all the time. This channel is underrated, deserves way more views than it has. You, kind Sir, have earned another subscriber. Cheers
I remember I was playing Minecraft once, building a little data center while listening to UA-cam in the background
At some point this video came on and I haven't been able to stop watching Louis ever since!
Keep up the great work, you're fighting the great fight and I admire the hell out of everything you do! ❤
How long did it take him to attain this level of knowledge and understanding. It’s amazing how intuitive all of this is to him
*knocks the multimeter over* This multimeter is drunk!
I work as an infrastructure architect in IT for a fortune 500 company. I deal with the x86 servers/AD/VMWare in our datacenters. I am on call once a month. When I am on call I try to not get too drunk but Murphy's law would predict I would eventual get paged on a night I was plastered. This has happened a couple times. I am a firm believer I have done my best work on these calls. I once even got praised by one of the execs who said I took control of the call and drove us to a quick solution. I guess its like bowling as there is a certain level of drunk that makes you better.
I will gladly chip in on a bottle of Jager for you to have only of this monthly!
+Michael O i hope you weren't driving when you were on call too!
I got this on my recommended feed, i don´t understand most of it but i like the dude
We just discovered Louis' secret on where he gets his super powers from...Jagermeister. The man didn't skip a beat.
I'm loving your videos. They are oddly soothing. It's fun to just listen to you drone on (in a good way). And sometimes I learn something.
As a former Apple Employee, the retail stores are all about favoritism most of the "geniuses" get there solely on how well "liked" they are by management. I am currently repairing Mac's in Mexico since there are not Apple retail store or authorized centers. I say you play an important role! Thanks for being an entertainer! You are my man-crush!
David Pausini well, considering an apple geniuses job is basically just telling people the issue can't be fixed and must be replaced, id say likeability would be the only criteria that actually effects income.
This was really informative. I mean that very strongly too - I also work in IT and have a basic grasp of circuits but to see you in action made it make a lot more sense than I thought it would.
I'm so glad I found this old video.
Apple's true genius is their ability to convince people to buy a brand new laptop instead of fixing the current one.
+cleetose TRUTH!
That's not limited to apple. Every shop I ever bought anything from has tried the "It can't be repaired" trick on me and on everybody I know. Most shops will try to sell you a new pc even if you're asking for a larger drive. They'll try to sell you a new (insert electric device here) instead of replacing a burnt fuse.
That's the main reason I own a soldering station and a few screwdrivers .-D
The "genius" bar is actually useful if you're an ideal apple user (the kind of guy who makes an apple account and keeps backups on iCloud). Broken mac goes in, new (usually refurbished) mac comes out, no questions asked. Log in, get your data back. The so-called apple experience isn't that bad - it actually made me MUCH more productive, not to mention, relaxed.
Man... I wanna find out how the customer reacted...
...which describes the majority of Apple's customer base...
SpAzMaNiK that is true huh.

“...you’re either looking at schematics in 4k, or you’re torturing yourself”
I love how even with a ‘joke’ video you’re still giving the middle finger to Apple :D
Keep up the great work!
Hey Louis, I just want you to know that this is the first video I've ever watched from your channel and I really enjoyed so I subscribed. I really like your content so please keep doing what you're doing and never stop doing and please keep in mind that there are many people (me included) who will support you however they can.
Louis you have my respect (I am drinking scotch while typing this) I have been in the high tech manufacturing and development for over 50 years, from the incept of the first integrated circuits to todays bleeding edge technology. In my case mostly fiber related. Most people today have no idea what makes their favorite toys and tools work, and even less ability to repair said items. You provide a necessary service and a way for people to defend against corporate dominance. Plus you strike me as one of the good guys, please keep doing what you do best. Cheers!
Considering how much your Channel has grown from 400 views being norm back then I'm really happy to see the progress you've made. I originally watched your videos for just basic understanding of soldering for a Desktop pc mobo and then continued to watch because not only are you informed on what you're doing, but you're real and don't sugar coat shit. Especially when it comes to new tech, repairs, or even the business of repairing electronics itself. Anyhow enough of my spiel, keep the good work Louis!
Thank you for the video Louis. I study electrical engineering and computer science. Watching your videos is quite relaxing (though they are a bit long, however, keep doing what you do). Greetings from Germany!
As a man who has always drank Jagermeister warm and straight out of the bottle, seeing someone else drink the sacred deer blood deserves a nod.
Amen
Louis makes repair videos so good I watch them for enjoyment, never fixed tech in my life but at this rate that may change.
liked your straight forward way of talking, and honesty. long live small business. earned my sub
Holy shit, that bit about something falling on the floor and disappearing forever is so relatable.
If you drop a screw and can't find it, try dropping another screw
@@Napert Figured as much, but if you're deliberately dropping one and observing its trajectory it never falls the same way.
@@raifthemad well it worked for me when i somehow dropped all the screws required to assemble a laptop and i couldn't find half of them until i dropped one and boom the rest showed up like it was christmas
@@Napert It might work once, but I do electronics repair stuff for living and a few times I've tried that method have not born fruit.
Dude, I love your videos. Not only do you go crazy in depth with major repairs (which is very interesting as someone who likes to try to repair his own stuff), but you're just so straight up about things it's great. It's very interesting to hear what Apple does to stop repairs like this from happening. I knew it was bad, I didn't know it was this bad. Keep up the good work, man. You may not get the high view counts that "let's play" and "fail compilation" videos get, but yours have more high quality content than those other videos could ever hope for. My videos are also low on the view counts but hey, it's just for the fun of learning to film and edit stuff.
I've watched at least one board repair video in the past but usually skip them. I'm now 10:35 into this video and just realizing that I'm still watching because he's drinking. I think his played worked this time!
Good one Louis !!!! TNX 4 da upload !
I dont like macbooks, i dont like apple products and i dont fix electronics on component level(except once i changed caps in a monitor's PSU) but your videos are still fun to watch
The fact that you can drink Jagermeister straight is impressive enough
Shits delicious. Only liquor I can stand straight.
@@WuClear Jägermeister is honestly one of the only liquors I absolutely cannot stand, makes my skin crawl.
Laughs in austria
It's pretty godarn tasty. Just like a bourbon likeur with honey. Both sweet and almost medicinal like which makes it very smooth
9:05 - 9:22 is an example of excellent teaching - breaking something down completely and providing a simple way to understand *why* it works the way it does. Explaining what something does is one thing, but explaining how or why it works is what helps people to truly understand something and hang onto that knowledge.
I don't why I'm getting this recommended to me 5 years later but I always make it a point to watch your videos whenever I get linked one. 😁
I think what you do is really good, and can tell you do it for the right reasons. You could easily make way more money by having less integrity, but you value honesty over monetary gain. There is hope for this world :)
"I'm trying to get back in shape." 5 seconds later "Let's take a drink!" :'D
I'd trust you even after watching a questinable video like this. You're a pro with this matter!
The main problem in the IT world and the Networking world is that while some ppl can pull off fancy degrees or certifications to get jobs at the Genius Bar, for example, and others, they might not be able to do pull it off and do the job because there is no way to teach, learn and quantify resourcefulness.
The ability to pull off a fix by finding your own way out of a ditch is soooooo underrated.
Good on you Mr. Rossmann. Love the channel.
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE
BUT WHERE DO I GET THE SCHEMATICS, LOUIS!
Wow Louis, great moves! keep it up, proud of you! (also, that just left me in awe, I'm definitely subscribing!)
+Pancho Papa Bless :D
+Pancho VAPE NAYSH BRUH. GO GREEN
We need more of these
Louis!!! I've been watching your videos for a few years. Today, I am in hysterics! lmao. This video is gold! I'm also drunk but fixing a Windows PC.
Petition to bring this series back!??
you sir deserve more subscribers ..... I enjoy your content .... keep up the good work ...
The best UA-camrs are the ones that get you to subscribe without asking you. I subscribed after watching another one of your videos where you were doing routine CLR, but this one made me check to see that I was subscribed :)
Thanks for watching!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video Rossmann!
I subscribed just because how nice your info was on the video. Great Job on all the repairs.
Where can I find these schematics?
FitnessRegiment
laptop-schematics.com
+FitnessRegiment All over the web, including at the site which appeared on the watermark on the schematic.. 30 years ago, pre-Web we had to buy photocopies from ads in the back of servicing magazines..There are a number of boardreader applications out there to read *.brd and other filetypes.
+Frank E Davidson Some people don't get sarcasm...
Jan-Ulrik Günter Heydorn That wasn't written in sarcasm font.
+FitnessRegiment really? he showed it like 20million times.
This is simply beautiful.
Bravo my man!!!! The closure was pitch on!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🏆🏆🏆🏆🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A friend recommended this to me. I will check out your other vids as I actually wish to learn about repairing tech
The real miracle is that he recorded a video while drunk. It's really difficult to remember to switch things
it's always a capacitor man, except when it's a resistor.
At first, I was very skeptical about watching this video. Then, after days possibly weeks of curiosity, I decided to look at it. I was not disappointed... YOU ARE THE MAN!
I think most of the appeal of drunken cooking, is your dealing with happy, silly, drunk people talking to you. And that's some thing a lot of people can relate to and enjoy.
I'm quite positive that Jagermeister will win in the end...
Oh, don't ship out your repaired projects before you double check them tomorrow...
“We’re going to see if this changes view count and subscribers at all.”
It did lmao.
My god, you sir are THE genius! This world needs more people like you. But not too many...
Bravo Louis...very entertaining and informative.
You drink alcohol and work, you got my like Louis. I subbed but I feel you deserve a lot more subs. Thanks.
I feel you . as a troubleshooter,I always had this issue
29:15 ever tried the “sending out a search party “ method ? You make sure the area’s well illuminated and drop a similar object from where you dropped / knocked the first one off but keep a close eye on it.
