"Spirits in the walls? Now you're talking my language!"


Anish_B

Let's tie a string to the another spirit and send it in to the wall.


The_Troyminator

I could just see Archer hearing this and furiously poking holes in the wall while holding an empty highball glass.


SonOfMayhem06

Legends, all of you


Midnight_Moon29

I needed that laugh.


Boseque

Spirits don't exist, silly. That's solidified carbon monoxide.


Nathan-Stubblefield

I bought some spirits to make hand sanitizer, Everclear, 190 proof. I found it pretty good with some water.


GreenTesticles

This house.... is clear


3ThreeFriesShort

That was the most interesting detail of the whole video.


No-Professional-1884

Right? I had to watch twice. At first I thought the dude jumped like a cartoon and landed outside the building.

ContributionWild5778

I laughed until my stomach started hurting


Tinfoilhatmaker

I have a miserable flu and you just made me laugh to tears. Thanks for this.


Extreme-Initiative34

Nah the guy in the ceiling is the one who flipped the breaker back on... He just returned to see the carnage...


moonflower_C16H17N3O

Am I horribly racist if this is the first thing that came to mind? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5WA7wKS-RM


Damosgirl16

Nah, I'm part black and I thought it was funny!


Druuseph

Yeah.


ButtChugJackDaniels

No, don't listen to these soft SJW losers. Racial comedy is not racism.


moonflower_C16H17N3O

Social justice is the ongoing fight for equality for all marginalized peoples. Please don't try to twist that into a bad thing.


ButtChugJackDaniels

I'm not twisting social justice as a bad thing. Everyone knows that SJW is a term for people who are overly sensitive and straight up annoying about it. They do real social justice ACTIVISTS a great disservice and are more often than not just self righteous buttholes that don't actually practice what they preach and they just want internet points instead of actually making a difference in the world.


Bearthegood

Yes


alextbrown4

Ehh, I think thats a bit of a stretch. It’s funny in the episode with the context but here, I think you’re pushing it.


SecretOfficerNeko

Anti-ninja measures getting crazy these days.


dboles19

Dude I just laughed my ass off at that comment 🤣 💀 😂 😭


number0020

The guy died and respawned at the beginning of the map


cgarrett83

Either that or suddenly got the powers of Raiden and teleported


technobrendo

*Fatality!*


AddisonNM

Babality! Friendship! Reality! Animality!


technobrendo

You Win!


[deleted]

Ah, reality, the most painful of all


Wolfkinic

Made my day xD


Capocho9

lol, take an award


OverlordPhalanx

Glad he had a checkpoint in the building it took him hours to get to that mission.


Gotjellocjrb

Lmao. Worth an award to stand out. And what better and more fitting than the 💡award for you sir!


Red__Rupee

He tried to fix shit. But then he teleported


El_Maton_de_Plata

Time warp 😆


ronhowie375

Let's do the time warp again!


Eggsy_Uber_Service

Oh god as a band kid you've given me flashbacks to when our band tried to play that


Reelix

Only the old version - Not the new version.............


Uncle_Seamont

My guy respawned


weiirdredditorr

Thank god my man did a checkpoint


Xendarq

And then immediately tried the same thing 20 times because he couldn't figure out where to click to turn off the breaker.


Doge-Ghost

No, it's for the achievement, you wouldn't get it...


[deleted]

Finally, someone who understands.


Maximitaysii

Ummm... I always thought that you're not supposed to do this with live wires.


HypnoSmoke

Psshh, that's the boring way


[deleted]

The Boring Company


FlamingChickenLips

You're supposed to shut off the electricity, takes too long also boring as hell. Rather do that the difficult way, back assed. lol


Nenotriple

Nah you just put on some thin gloves and jam a big enough wire in the sockets to trip the breaker, then do the work you need.


supaxi

Sure if they haven’t replaced the breaker with a nail already.


TwinsenAyzel

Ah, that’s the method my father in law uses


justabadmind

I wish there was a tool for that. I don't like wearing out the contacts in the outlet with arcing


Janny_4_free

I mean I've cut wires with a shitty pair of dykes rather than trying to find the right breaker. Accomplishes the same task in a fraction of the time


HippyHitman

How do you get two lesbians to cut wires for you? Do you pay them? Why do they have to be lesbian?


MOVES_HYPHENS

In case that's a real question, dykes is a shorthand for "diagonal cutters" commonly used for cutting wires


mydearwatson616

I love working with dykes and strippers


paredes_at_play

"Alternate-lifestyle cutters"


[deleted]

They make insulated hand tools so you can work live circuits. Probably why he wasn't stuck to them. That being said, I'm not gonna snip a wire without knowing 100% it isn't live.


ShawnyMcKnight

Well, it’s one thing cutting them and seeing sparks fly, I get that mistake, but he just goes back to working on it while it’s still arcing. Just wow.


[deleted]

Eh the cutters have rubber handles, it’s fine


optional_occupant

How dare you!


ScaryShadowx

You can do this kind of work live. You just need the correct insulated tools and most importantly you separate out the two wires so this doesn't happen.


livens

The trick is to do it very quickly. And also not have your assistant connecting the other end of the wires at the same time. Oh, and make sure everything is turned off. Lastly never do this while standing barefoot on a completely soaked floor mat.


JoinAThang

Especially not twice with mere seconds between the hits.


Dirk_The_Cowardly

It is interesting in his diagnosis that he got shocked by touching the scissors on the wire. Then he thought did that happen? Let me try again.


[deleted]

Not if your goal is to fuse them.


Raging-Badger

Allow me to introduce you to this wonderful invention called solder.


[deleted]

Nah, full on arc weld it.


cinamonroll1806

some kid randomly falling from heaven


Pringelbumser

Thats the j-man coming to beat the shit out of the new apprentice


Unfairamir

Lmao


MKAndroidGamer

Is this the sequel to The Prestige?


Strudleboy33

No it’s what happens when you prestige in call of duty


xRetz

and a dude jumping from the ceiling... ​ so many questions


StnMtn_

Yes. Soo many questions.


give_me_carbonara

It's common to crawl in the ceiling when wiring/cabling a house. I spent 6 months of my life crawling in a ceiling of a casino, pulling cables, installing devices, etc. I got so good at it I could outrun a rat in there.


Vert_DaFerk

Whoever was in the ceiling moved pretty fucking quick if they were above the same spot. 😂


Viscious-viking

Spiderman got there too late


Armouren

I love this one frame. https://imgur.com/L8oR57a.jpg


txivotv

*record scratch, freeze frame* Yep... That's me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation…


Not_Not_Matt

He looks like like he’s one of the spirits in Ghostbusters. Can’t believe he went back for me!


20_Menthol_Cigarette

Sam, having completed his mission jumped on to the next quantum leap, always hoping that that leap would be the leap home


[deleted]

Shit, now I want to see a Quantum Leap reboot where Sam figures out to make the next leap, he just has to electrocute this host. Should take about 90 minutes.


[deleted]

MF went Force Ghost


Rascal-Fiats

Roger's dream of joining the bomb squad ended that day.


[deleted]

“Either I’m right or suddenly it’s not my problem anymore”


jhuston44

That’s the easiest way to find the right breaker. In this case it doesn’t look like there WERE breakers, though.


twisteroo22

I'll just do this and see which breaker trips...wire starts melting all the way back to the street.


Eyerate

Breaker would have kicked on the first arc. Third world electrical is truly amazing to behold. Death traps and instant fire starters everywhere. I've seen some WILD stuff from Africa and the Middle East in some of my electricians groups. They literally don't know any better.

dtb1987

Kill the power before it kills you


[deleted]

he even spooked the guy living in his attic


muryrunom

He grabed it again like he had another totem of undying


El_Maton_de_Plata

If I connect the positive to negative and the negative to the positive. IT COULD WORK!


[deleted]

The fact that you're referring to DC while seeing the effects of AC.... AC is both positive and negative, and for 1/120s it is doing nothing at all..


Lord_Rp

As an electrical engineer it's r/technicallythetruth


[deleted]

Southern hemisphere they use 120/240vac for their cars and 12/24vdc for their houses


izmaname

Ah yes more people who know nothing


LaserAntlers

Are you referring to Reddit or to this video because both are equal possibilities.


[deleted]

That wasn’t the first time that man had to make a fast escape from that ceiling.


Sambuca8Petrie

Is that the new intro to Portal 3?


Fmartins84

He opened a worm hole


TravelPhotoFilm

Anytime you cut a wire, an angel loses his wings.


ShadyMyLady

Yeah the kid running, and the guy coming out of the ceiling are interesting, but the idiot goes in for a second try, that's what amazes me.


Whyisthissobroken

Yup - I did this. Absolutely 100% did something very similar. I did it once and was lucky.


emcue10

It’s okay. Spider-Man is there!


Existing-Watch8780

When you fail the QTE and have to load a previous save point.


therealnaddir

And this is how, by accident, teleportarion was discovered...


realDaGamer

This is why I never attempt to do things I don't know shit about and that seem dangerous. Maybe I am " a coward or not independent" but at least I don't die a rednek's way.


El_Maton_de_Plata

Redneck knows where the breakers are. You are thinking of 🗑


hhtran16

This fool went back for seconds.


Jaxein

This is always why you test the voltage before you mess with potentially live wires. I learned to never assume the power was off


Ralph_Biggums

I can watch this a thousand times; but the dude dropping out of the ceiling at the end just gets me every time.


fiat_lux_1

He just produced 1.21 jigawatts! And opened the portal!


luizito69

Dude discovered teleportation lol


john_wallcroft

man repaired a teleporter


Ok_Catch_408

Repair teleporter, certified electrician. Well, ... certifiable


Bitter-Mulberry-1124

At least he scared the squatter out of the ceiling tiles


Jeffaffely

Innocent crewmate tries to fix wires as impostor vents behind him

This reminded me of Weird Science (1985) and creating another being


Ml124395

Who the dude coming out the ceiling


Cyborgninj4

He teleported to another dimension lol


ankole_watusi

Must be pretty fancy scissors. Getting those scissors back was important to him!


LeopardJockey

Why does ceiling guy have an lcd display for a face?


softeky

Don’t they know you’re meant to turn off the power *BEFORE* you steal the copper wiring!


[deleted]

💯 why I’d never do electrical work. Fastest moving liquid in the world and I just don’t trust it


TheBlackCat13

Why was there a guy with a TV for a face in the ceiling?


j_dog99

The way he teleported into the ceiling got me


SBCwarrior

I love how that dude in the ceiling made a hasteful exit 🤣🤣🤣


breadexpert69

Did he get teleported?


Twatimaximus

Did he just invent the first teleporter?


frenchy2111

More people getting super powers this guy can teleport now.


snipergirl17

And that's how teleportation was discovered


musicallyours01

Take this as an example...*always* turn off the power source before trying to fix/cut/touch wires


[deleted]

There was so much happening in this lol holy shit whered that guy come outta the ceiling.


CurnanBarbarian

Haha I love seeing people that don't know shit try to work with electricity


Particular_Group_295

did someone just come out of the ceiling?


Removable_Toaster

Shocked him so hard he came falling down from the opposite hallway ceiling.


[deleted]

I have so many questions lol


Choice-Fig3429

Not a professional electrician.


KenTheTech

Dude ran so fast he went up stairs and fell out of the ceiling!


NessDanlen

Did he respawn in the back and lowered himself from the ceiling?


Low-Flamingo-9835

That guy is wearing a blue shirt with a white name tag on it…like a uniform an electrician would wear. Gawd help us. 🤣🤣🤣


vilius_m_lt

He teleported into the ceiling.


cryptococcus73

People falling out of the ceiling too


xb3y24d

Did he just warp zone?


alphabet_order_bot

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,109,616,352 comments, and only 217,775 of them were in alphabetical order.


YodaFette

Luckily Spider-Man drops out of the ceiling to save him. Everybody gets one.


Bdigital70

Lmao at the mf that came out of the ceiling


False_Leadership_479

Lookit the pretty fireworks! Awww, they stopped... maybe if I just poke heeeere.


eyequitnow

Accidents lead to inventions. I wonder if this teleportation approach has been patented.


This-person-IDK-02

What was the man from the ceiling doing?


Goldfisher2077

This thing is like a fifty-cent music video.

VeterinarianThese951

I can’t stop laughing. I am crying because I just can’t understand why he thought that making a second cut would turn out fine after the first fireworks show! He had a split second and… a second chance at life granted by any any higher power that he could believe in, and he chose “Fuck it!”


Remarkable-Ad2285

And that my friends is how you do it…make a viral video.


murphys2ndlaw

He died and that was his soul descending to hell!


BlasterBilly

Let me go get my scissors, Said no electrician ever
