SEAT a TIRE with FIRE - How to Break a Bead with a Hi-Lift too

[@grimwolf1981]

perfect example of how to do a non-professional thing in a professional way. well done!

[@Momeykid78]

How about the other way around bucko

[@NJDRJ]

Thank you. Clear, concise & straight to the point. Great video

[@wayalife]

Glad you enjoyed the video 😎

[@teawrld5976]

@@wayalife Is there any danger in doing. I really wanna try this out.

[@wayalife]

@@teawrld5976 LOL - well sure. You are playing with fire and things can always go wrong.

[@wunderkind56]

That's the guy you want to have on your trail runs.

[@edsselflearnedmechanics257]

I am him lol

[@tonypizzoferrato6977]

Thanks, it worked just as the video shows. Never new this.

[@wayalife]

Great to hear!

[@ridemfast7625]

When you hit the tire with the hammer it allowed air to enter into the tire. Fire/explosions need oxygen. Good vid!

[@TrevorDennis100]

Thanks. I was going to ask what the hammer hit did.

[@spencerwalker3698]

As a M.D. B.S. PhD comedian/nuclear physicist, I am qualified to make the following claims regarding the hammer. Oxygen was already able to enter the tire through the gaps between the rubber and the rim. However, this steady flow caused a near-laminar reaction, therefore the fire was burning at a proportionately slow rate. When the hammer struck, the enlarged oxygen inlet caused a disproportionate rate of combustion on one side, causing immense turbulence and igniting the remaining fuel nearly instantly. Another factor is the bounce that allowed ambient air through the bottom at a greater flow rate than when the tire was flush on the ground. The moral of the story is this: laminar flow allows for predictability, but turbulence is the greatest catalyst we can create without a match.

Bro is onto absolutely nothing

[@anthonymorrison2167]

I bet when you were in school you wore thick black plastic glasses and wore a pen and pencil holder on your shirt pocket if you did it was probably worth it. well explained.

[@JeepingNet]

Good reminder to remove the valve stem

[@teel6060]

Removing the valve stem does nothing.

[@JeepingNet]

@@teel6060 It allows the tire to equalize after it sets. If you leave the valve stem in the tire can suck in on itself as it consumes all the oxygan. Leaving the stem in does allow it to set a tad easier but you also risk the tire popping off again when it compresses. Ideally you are putting air into the tire right away and even with the stem in sometimes you can't keep up with it. I've seen twice tires suck themselves back off the bead.

[@mikekorn6506]

I love it .... "you guys wanna try it", "uuh noo"

[@lawrencekonis8099]

Yeah, glad i saw this. The hammer trick was key.

[@ivancauchi3652]

Yes indeed I tried this multiple times with butane and WD40, and it never worked until I used a hammer

[@brettdubbeld9042]

Note taken, thank you for the tips guys

[@wayalife]

Glad you found it useful :)

[@bayg421]

I thought it would go boom? Is that due to fluid/air ratio rich or lean?

[@DONTCALLMETHAT]

Old truckers trick. They used this method to get off the side of the highway

[@adam0bt]

brake cleaner i had wasn't combustible enough, starting fluid popped in on there though

[@stithis]

When is it safe to refill with air from a compressor after resetting the bead

[@wayalife]

Right away

[@Ramon-du7jv]

New subscriber dude! Super cool

[@wayalife]

Awesome thank you!

[@NewRoad]

Nice hacks - thanks for sharing

[@xavierasuncion7258]

Can i also use butane gas? Just like the lighter fluid?

[@wayalife]

I would imagine you could. You just need something that's combustible.

[@chevvyloverr]

Very good way to blow up the tire.

[@jakemccoy]

But he took out the valve stem.

[@blkdavid]

Sweet

[@MrAndysk1]

AMAZING!!

[@pl9742]

What was sprayed into the tire?

[@wayalife]

Brake cleaner

[@seabeaner]

What are u spraying into the tire?

[@pickles9195]

Starter Fluid

[@drefhill]

use water with dishes soap to help unmounting it.

[@wayalife]

LOL - not real easy to find dish soap out on the trail or in a parking lot. However, WD40 works well too.

[@kaleibob]

what about using a strap ?

[@wayalife]

What about it?

[@1joshbelanger]

i have seen people use a ratcheting try down strap around the center of the tire tread and just keep tightening it down until it pops the bead back into place. i think that is what he is meaning by using a strap

[@wayalife]

Yeah, that is one way of doing it but the whole point of this video is to show how you can do this trick without one.

[@martyturpen4535]

Strap seems to work best for me on small tires for, lets say the front tire on my zero turn. Passenger tires say 14,15 or 16" not so much, would take a.lil explosion. Have used starter fluid on a 15" ranger 4 -5 times today with no luck, its almost like its not combustible anymore but IK it is at least when it's compressed it will start a engine

[@gotmilk91]

Cool! But I want to use all-nitrogen fill for max tire performance.

[@karguy1720]

Should have been wearing more protection, (hands, eyes, hair), but I'm very impressed with the way he created a trail of spray to use as a fuse. I did this today, and I lit the gas by putting my Bic right next to the bead. Stressful! Good idea to remove the valve stem. If you don''t the rapidly cooling explosive gas will create a powerful vacuum and possibly pull the tire off of the bead.

[@donkeyballs7860]

Shut up you puss

[@claydermanjuarezramirez3769]

Como se llama el líquido q le hechaste al neumáticos en español🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@eloysaenz4382]

Liquido de arranque lo encuentras en autozone.

[@Daniel-pv8jl]

whats the fluid

[@wayalife]

Starter fluid

[@dritetinator6057]

I guess these must be HOT wheels cars then???

[@wayalife]

LOL

[@jakejohnson9712]

won't this put a bulge in the tire?

[@williamwaite4806]

Infuckingcredible!
