the first person to figure that one out buzzing time you're faced with a problem surely you've racked a few stupid ideas through your mind before you found a practical solution but once in a while it seems those outlandish solutions might just actually be solutions here's 15 times those crazy ideas actually work number 15 tallest man saves dolphins what do you do when you're faced with two dolphins who accidentally ingested plastic if you thought perhaps there should be animal experts or surgery involved it seems none of that was necessary how would you guys do i'd give them something that's gonna make them throw up intentionally i'd give them like well if you have nothing it's just you and the dolphins bear bear [ __ ] [ __ ] in his mouth yeah [ __ ] in his mouth [Laughter] i'm afraid that i never i never swallowed a plastic bro near bog not just in general just nearby bro if i swallow it near you like you've probably got the ability to save me well simon might be able to because we're all about to find out what he does why me because you're tall you've got long arms bro i put my arm down reaching down my throat i put my arm down and started making it throw up not [ __ ] in its mouth yeah but i ain't got the long arms bro i got a lot of my arms oh my god you're [ __ ] i can't believe it bro it's life all day if it dies [ __ ] in a dead dolphin's mouth well at least i tried all right absolutely a mongolian herdsman by the name of bao came to the rescue of the dolphins the 54 year old stands at a height of seven foot eight point nine five inches or two point three six using his incredibly long arms which measure at 1.06 meters he reached down the throats of the dolphins and fished out the pieces of plastic out of him the dolphins were able to fully recover synchronized flushing the city of bulawayo zimbabwe had a constant problem of backed up sewage over the years of severe drought to solve the problem everyone had to flush at the same time according to the mayor this simultaneous flush would help keep all the pipes wet at the same time letting the waste flow easily to where it was intended to go these synced flushes would begin to take place in the year 2012 with the first one set at a time of 7 30 at night there's at least one million so i'll take a steam and [ __ ] your weight and i've gotta leave it all day until 7 30. yeah oh no [ __ ] didn't you do that before you left the [ __ ] in the toilet and got another day for a week harry left his [ __ ] in a toilet for a week bro that is disgusting but i had no choice my flight was leaving i did a [ __ ] before i was running out the door the the flush broke i was like right it's i'll either figure this out where i get my flight i've got my flight residence the city and all together they flush their toilets which apparently was a success number 13 pet rocks some of you might be too young to have been around for the consumerism phenomenon known as the pet rocks and it's exactly what it sounds like back in 1975 the late gary who was in advertising this is an idea though really good idea to sell it's a rock bro like that rock bro it's a fat rock come on the type of thing i got to have for a bit this wasn't ideas that like sold this is ideas that actually worked it's a it's a rock it didn't work rocking them yeah but it's a rock and a happy meal box how did this work bro look you saw two people that's not crazy ideas that sold it's crazy ideas that worked it was like it was what's a word it was a product that worked well it didn't work but like you're the type of guy rock bro i'd get a rock bro if you told me if it was a cheap price and you're gonna get his pet rock i'll get i'd find my own pet rock i think look at this pets look at this the pet rock was born well interracial family is lovely little air holes for your pet rock this sounds right your pedigree cute little head that didn't need to be fed trained or groomed and it totally worked in a matter of less than a year and right on time for the winter holiday season would be a million it's become a tradition for two people to break apart a turkey's wishbone after extracting said bone from a cooked turkey dinner sometimes our units break out trying to figure out which two people get the chance to maybe have their wishes granted in order to solve the conundrum of all the rest of the people at the party who feel left out a man named ken aroni decided everyone should get the chance to make a wish so he came up with the plastic wishbone that could be sold with a handful in a package now dolphins are choking amazing plastic wish bones are manufactured each humans sales are reaching over two minutes i don't think you can blame the people making them i think you have to blame the number one millions of snowy winters when you think of skeletons and when the summer months hit in 2013 it made sense that the male train workers in stockholm sweden would feel more comfortable wearing shorts instead of stuffy black pants to work they all however were then prohibited from wearing shorts so the male train drivers had to come up with a solution to feeling breezy without breaking the rules that's why they then showed up to work wearing skirts [Music] were allowed to wear skirts to work it seems no one minds the slight wardrobe change in the lease number 10 mirror catches the sun some places in the world do not get as much sunlight as they need or as much as the residents of these towns would like in order to solve this dilemma giant mirrors were placed on the mountain sides of towns like vignette in italy and another in norway the giant mirrors reflect the sun that's kind of done it's the land it wouldn't matter in your way the town you see just huddled yeah that happens at mine though like the sun will sort of reflect on a building and it lights my the balcony up so it is effective effectively that's cool man yeah it sounded cool so three giant mirrors were installed in 2013 so that the sun could reach the lower parts of the valley a few years prior a similar installation took place in the italian town of veganea which is located in the intronah valley here the sun used to not shine from november until february which has been fixed thanks to the mirror number nine square watermelons oh no people usually have no the implementation of square watermelons why because we wouldn't chase one unless we're all wrong about this i don't i don't know why but that is more attractive than a normal watermelon i don't know why i i it's really you don't like you know like curves you like more like a box it's radiating more attractive energy and i don't know why it might have a strong jawline that's what it is it might be my ocd it might be my ocd that like that it's radiating attractiveness watermelon but humans are interesting creatures and i don't like my women looking at those spending their money why not square watermelons too and you don't need to be a super scientific genius to figure out how these were made the watermelons are grown in boxes and the fruit just molds to the shape the cubic form is supposed to make it easier to fit into the fridge it was a practice that started in japan in the late 70s and isn't super popular since it does cost more money to purchase a square watermelon but it seems the storage and aesthetic was good enough for some people number eight selling bags of are you not okay what's that what you're cracking up out here what's happening you descended to chaos anyone who is an expat of any place might be able to relate even if you're home in a new land there's some things didn't uh cards against humanity sell bits of [ __ ] uh yeah yeah you'll know yeah they sold bits of cows did you get some like legit [ __ ] or was it one of them like because i got sent like a service where you can send [ __ ] no it was like one of those i got no it was it wasn't it was a web it was a home homemade tubberware like it wasn't like all the actual [ __ ] you got actually yeah bro someone sent me horse manure and i didn't open it for like three years well i remember that video of harry's bro but he's he's unwrapping this tupperware box right hey [ __ ] and then i shot my p.o box after that for some irish expats one of those things is the good old irish dirt also known as old sod it seemed one man found a way to capitalize on this and started bagging what's said to be official irish dirt to those who wanted or needed it actually ireland is known for its famous soil and there's a lot of nostalgia attached to it so alan jenkins decided he'd give his irish compatriots a piece of home and in collaboration with agricultural scientist pat burke who is also irish american they came up with old sod which is packaged dirt from ireland and thus far the companies made britney spears scares away pirates okay britney personally she actually seems quite nice and personable now that she's older and knows how to handle fame one tactic the british royal navy have used to deter somali pirates out on the waters is apparently playing some britney spears songs and by playing we mean they blast hits like all right now time and oops i did it again while on the coast of africa it's a method that's said to have been more effective than that sorry how does this one could you blame them for being pirates kryptonite bro they're here they scurry they scurry back you are the captain now you'd be sick of the songs if you worked on the ship though imagine that just 24 7 just britney spears blaster captain captain played play toxic the pirates hate western music and it's a memphis that seems to work an additional plus they have a bazooka less violent confrontations goggles for dogs do dogs really need an accessory surely all the cutesy clothes and even collars we place on them however as ridiculous as the phrase dog goggles seems for anyone it's a business venture that's worked out in the double goggle manufacturer the inventor of the product known as the goggles is jill doyle and while most would quip that these no these ridiculous the goggles protect your dog's eyes from the uv rays of the sun since dogs need to run around outside as much as possible the company that sells doggles makes around five million dollars in revenue every year and also includes products that are prescribed lenses for dogs with visual impairments you have a price to make up with my dog that's a bit weird bro i don't know why you're paying money to see that i'm gonna make a joke i was gonna say is harry kissing his mum there oh oh wow that's a good one you should have made the joke then you should have made it with your chest no you started talking about how much to kiss a dog on it i mean you still made the joke i just want you to know that what i saw was you kissing your mouth which one's my mom the dog the dog you know what you know what that's a good joke that's a good joke even and i respect you owners in the madrid suburb of brunette spain were said to have a bad habit of not picking up after their dogs this problem was becoming such an issue that efforts were made to stop this problem and instead of just issuing fines officials found a better way to deal with the unsanitary problem a group of volunteers would look out for the dogs and their owners bag the poop themselves and then send it in the mail back to the owners the practice is said to be highly effective with the number of dog droppings around burnett being considerably fueled what do they know number four fishermen wearing masks fishermen in the ganges delta were dealing with bengal tigers sneaking up on them as they tried to do their job and it was becoming a dangerous problem instead of hurting the tigers moving to a different location it seemed all that was needed was a prop to scare away tigers approaching them from behind the fishermen were instructed to wear these masks which seemed to trick most tigers into thinking a human being had spotted them or the face of the mask is just that displeasing that it scares them off number three you've probably heard about people complaining about bottled water how it's all a sham and that clean drinking water should come free anyways so then think about the concept of bottled air now that you've thought about it for a bit just know you can buy said product vitality air was created by a canadian startup company fans of what is said to be you can buy london or like london for about thirty two dollars yeah that's crosstalk that's crazy but the little novelty underground smug smog yeah i love you yeah no you can actually that's actually a thing though a jar of fresh air product has made for itself west london air pollution are the locations of the biggest oh my god number two shade balls the phrase shade balls probably means something different to a lot of people if you weren't aware what they actually refer to are the millions of plastic balls that were dumped into the ivanhoe reservoir in los angeles about two years ago the reason stems down to the continuing drought that the state of california has been going through placing the four inch thick plastic balls in the water would help shade the water from the hot spot reducing gravity this is an idea that actually works this is cool and certain chemical substances wouldn't be able to be produced number one pigs with munchies stigma against legalizing marijuana has slowly been falling away especially now that places like washington state have implemented all right marijuana come on the screen oh instead cannabis has been incorporated into the pig feed and it's said to eat oh that's that's rude for them to keep your mom in a [ __ ] cage well done increase the weight which only means good things for the farming trade in washington wow which one impressed you the most out of all them would you say the mirrors probably i think i like the shade balls i like the pig munchies that's my favorite one of course it's quite an inevitable one britney spears the britney spears the britney spears has to be the best one yeah the most absurd all right well cheers right boys hope you enjoyed see you guys next time [Music] you
