Irish People Try The Weirdest Infomercial Products 2

[@danielwells5678]

"That's not a deal...that's just math"...BEST COMMENT OF THE VIDEO!

[@susanh6877]

Kudos to Lolsy for recognizing that the jar opener would be beneficial for people with mobility issues, at 6:15 plus time. I'm a quadriplegic from Canada, car accident in 1981 going to a sport event at age 15. Devices like this deserve recognition from "able bodied' people. Love your videos!

[@astridbirgittevern1877]

My late mother suffered from arthritis, and I bought a battery-operated lid opener for her. She used it often, and was very happy with it.

[@Procrastinator1948]

I picked up one at a yard sale many years ago. First time I tried it, it broke.

[@brians48now]

They work well when they work. I'm on my 6th one in just over 7 years.

[@sarahwithanhyouheathen3210]

I have a similar one for severe carpal tunnel syndrome. Works great!

[@Procrastinator1948]

@@brians48now I have a simple jar wrench that works great and doesn't need batteries. Have had it for years and hasn't broken yet. But I can see where this would be a must have for the folks with arthuritis or carpral tunnel.

[@Kelnx]

That Artic Hat is silly, but wetting a rag and wrapping it around your head is an old trick to cool off and it absolutely does work. It's really only useful in drier heat, so forget it in high humidity.

[@LindaC616]

I bought a kerchief in Arizona because it was only about 2000 and I hadn't seen things like that anywhere before. Someone above is saying that they wore stuff like that in Costa rica, but I can't imagine that helped with that humidity

[@Kagome6691]

The Veggetti, I used in the Thai restaurant I used to work at that swapped sugar for healther options. We used it to make zucchini "noodles" for our gluten free option. We genuinely had a large clientele who had food sensitivities and allergies. So any gadget like that that made food prep easier and faster was a God send.

[@Grizazzle]

"These people are so sweaty..." Welcome to the US during summer. The heat is real.

[@krystenpowers2492]

[@darlenelipuma7769]

This was such a FUN video today!! I personally may actually buy the jar opener. But the rest are just silly. Great laugh with the limp cucumber!!

[@bradkirchhoff5703]

The hat isnt silly. Its ygly but it absolutely will keep you from getting heat stroke ehen working in heat. I almost had heat stroke doing concrete. I couldnt keep my head cool even by pouring water in my hat. It just dried up too fast. That hat could literalky save a persons life from heat stroke.

[@lynbaker]

I haven’t laughed that hard during a video in a long time! Thanks folks!

[@thegingergyrl455]

Migraines are not the same as regular headaches. Source, I’ve had chronic migraine with aura since I was 4yrs old. Compression, cooling caps are helpful. That wrap around thing does not help. I giggled over this video way too much. Love you guys! Also, Paddy AND Dermot in the same video? Thank you! ✌🏻👩🏻‍🦰👍🏻

[@lumina1104]

I haven't used the Artic-Cool hat, but some items made from evaporative cooling fabric really do work. Granted, they have to be wet. As the moisture evaporates it absorbs heat, in the case of the hat, from your head. When it's +35C, being a bit damp is a fair trade for the cooling such items provide. I have a towel, a hat, and a T-shirt. I don't use them that often now, but when I was living in Central America they were great. In that heat, I was going to be damp from sweat, if not from clothing that I wet for evaporative cooling.

[@JustinHamsley]

I can't speak for this hat, either, but I completely agree to the efficacy of some items using that technology. I can live with the slight dampness for an hour in exchange for how much cooler I feel. Sincerely, from Tennessee.

[@williamriley-le9zo]

Basically it's called, wait for it now kids,........ EVAPORATION. Any cloth hat will do this. Any cloth will do this. You don't need a special, expensive, material to achieve this. Jeez, some people will throw money at anything.

[@justicegaming1412]

@@williamriley-le9zo Different materials will, of course, hold different amounts of water. You already know this, which is why you have puffy towels that can absorb lots of water and thin exercise clothing that doesn't. The trick is to find a material that absorbs water quite well while also not being a particularly thick and heat-retaining surface the way a towel is. Don't know anything about this particular hat (and why isn't the funny fabric all the way around?) but in principle using a specialized material can absolutely be better at serving this purpose than a regular hat is.

[@encourageandrepeat8375]

@@justicegaming1412 I think it's a polymer gel similar to what they make diapers with, so it would hold a lot more water than the average fabric, and thus last longer as advertised.

[@CortexNewsService]

I actually can speak to the hat. It does actually work to keep you from overheating. I wear mine when I'm doing yard work. It doesn't keep me comfortable but it does help protect against heatstroke. Here in the Midwest US it does regularly get to 35C and you can notice a big difference when you put it on when you're doing outside work.

[@mdf3530]

Years ago, there used to be a store at a mall in the Chicago area called TV Land. They sold a lot of pop culture merchandise (think wrestling, South Park, Ren and Stimpy, Adult Swim, etc.). They also sold a lot of “as seen on TV” products like the George Foreman grill, Chia Pet, Snuggie, etc. Unrelated but funny: on the window of the store, they listed their “other locations”: Bedrock (“The Flintstones”), Hooterville (“Petticoat Junction” and “Green Acres”) and Beverly Hills (“The Beverly Hillbillies” and “Beverly Hills, 90210”).

As a persoon who has had skin cancer , just being informative 😊, there IS a difference in normal clothing ( hats) and UV blocking clothing....UV blocking clothing is mostly synthetic with filters in it with titanium dioxide, and sink dioxide... normal cotton, silk or wool doesn't do the trick as much, even if they are hats. Australia and New Sealand with high UV rates very often where these UV blocking clothes... as well as I am... be careful in the sun.. cheers Erik 🙏🏻😊🙌☀️

[@kaitybug-mf6hc]

In America it can get up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit in some places. That hat would help if you have to be outside

I need one of those twister things now. I have arthritis and a jar of pickles I got from the store (instead of my own). Cannot get the dang thing open. Dermot nailed that head wrap. The appliance was not heated or cold, and nothing to distinguish if it helped or not. OMG, Colin--sorry to interrupt, but aren't they describing a hat? Nearly spit out my drink. Too funny. I bet that is a fashion must-have--someone call Ciara. Oh, Lolsy--too funny. Call it the damp hat. Maybe do more of this kind of series--I have always wondered about some of these late-night infomercials--if they work or not.

[@RedMenace71]

You may have already tried this, but: insert a flat-head screwdriver between the lid and jar, and twist screwdriver gently until you hear a pop. Unscrew lid. Depending on how bad your arthritis is, may not be viable.

[@Skye_Writer]

Idk if we have THE Robo Twist, but we do have one. My aunt has diabetes and has using feeling her fingers, so it has gotten harder for her to open jars. And as Mom and I get older, we are having difficulty, as well. We even have those rubber grip pads that are supposed to make opening jars easier, Mom used to be able to do it by hitting the bottom of the jar with the heel of her hand (you have to do it _just right_), and my go to has always been to run the jar lid under hot water to help it expand. But the motorized one has been a game changer for us, and as three older ladies with health problems, I have to say I'm thankful for it.

[@TrixterG]

We loved this episode, thanks for the laughs!

Even better for a migraine: An extremely hot foot bath. It sounds stupid, but it really works.

[@thomasbecker9676]

Expands the blood vessels, so in theory takes some of the pressure off the blood vessels in the head.

[@313gwar]

I suffer from migraines often and I usually dip my feet on mildly hot water and put an ice pack on my head at the same time for instant relief.

[@sortaamy3003]

The idea is to expand the blood vessels, drawing the blood away from the head. It does work sometimes. Ice also works as does pressure point near the thumb....sometimes. Also, the suggestion the dr gave my Dr was to drink Gatorade or the like as soon as pain hits. Works if it's because of dehydration. That said, sometimes nothing really works. I say this as someone who does botox and takes migraines meds and still has at least a headache more than half the month.

[@themustar601]

There are some decent migraine tips from The Dizzy Cook. Not all, but some. The pink migraine glasses really help me a lot.

[@midniteillusion3]

@@sortaamy3003I’m with you on the migraines. The Gatorade or electrolytes work best for me ahead of time. But the hot water and ice packs never worked. Botox has been the best so far in the 20+ years of having them.

Normal summer days here is SE Alabama are 100F+ and so humid (>75%) that sweat doesn't evaporate. Wetting your cap or wearing a wet hand towel around your neck isn't uncommon, esp. if you're doing yardwork or playing sports or anything like that.

I didn't expect to laugh this much at (dumb) Weird [what the title says. i'm not repeating it for you.] lol

[@CortexNewsService]

I actually own the Arctic hat. I wear it when I mow the lawn. It actually does help. The reflective top actually reflects a lot of the heat from sunlight and the holes on the side allow for airflow. It doesn't make you feel cold on a summer day, but it does help avoid heatstroke when you're doing work outside

[@CortexNewsService]

Also, I don't wear it anywhere but my yard, because I have some fashion sense

Ok but the flashing lights party with the twirling of the zucchini leftovers was my favorite part haha

[@ahill209]

The hat works on the same principal as industrial air conditioning coolers. When worn in a breeze, water evaporates, leaving behind cooler damp water in the mesh. At Disney World, they sell cooling towels that use the same principal. And they do work - but yes, they remain damp and you have to recharge the towel / hat with water when most of the moisture has evaporated away.

[@Heru3005]

Taran is an absolute treasure.

[@lindaboggess7634]

The hat would be great for Houston,TX June thru August. Come visit during those months and you will see why. 98° and 70% humidity and go mow the yard. Oh and that is at 8 in the morning!

[@silverlobo2135]

The Veggetti Pro actually does work for those who are more vegans / vegetarians. The carrot needs to be steamed to make it more pliable (softer) to be able to turn it into a pasta. Then lightly fried with extra virgin olive oil and then preferred pasta sauced and seasoned. Have a few friends and neighbors who use it frequently.

[@pembreyfritts.6378]

That hat literally saved me whilst working as a landscaper years ago cold water in the hat was amazing

[@helenemalenfant5435]

Re: migraine pack. As someone who suffers migraines from neck injuries in a car accident and who, ironically, works in the field as well, ice packs can be incredibly helpful. But you need a good one. And, for me, it’s because inflammation in my neck causes vasodilation and triggers the migraine. So a long strip of cooling material in a tube with Velcro that goes at the critical spot has been a lifesaver. But the one they showed is just junk. There are proper medical ones that stay soft and pliable when frozen, the key feature. The majority of the ones out there are just a waste of money. But it was fun to watch everyone trying to put this over their face with supposed ‘eye slits’… just laughable.

[@Stevarooni]

After decades of opening biscuit peel'n'pop containers? They're used to that kind of culinary jack-in-the-boxes. 😉

[@Eldenaro]

The trick is to set it and go about the other aspects of meal prep. If it's pickles for a burger, set it to open, then get the buns/condiments while it 'works its magic!'. Why waste time watching it? Just in case it breaks the jar? That will happen with or without your observation.

[@jinetjimenezpenalopez1855]

They all had me dying with their responses to each product. I am so glad they tried these products before I bought one or two of them.
