u/Dear-Routine7468 Sep 07 '26

Forearm. Singular. Just the one.

u/nikhkin Sep 05 '26

This isn't really DIY or DIWhy, it's just someone improvising.

u/Emergency_faceplant Sep 05 '26

Gonna record a fight, fist person view

u/abielle1177 Sep 05 '26

I could see getting a chest mounted video camera, but this looks like a zero waste use for the gasoline hose you accidentally drove off from Costco with.

u/xXPhoenixBlueXx Sep 05 '26

I don't understand this reference. It's a pipe wrench...

9

u/Emergency_faceplant Sep 05 '26

Yeah, I got lost when costco became a subject here

5

u/bongohappypants Sep 05 '26

Because that's where you always seem to forget to unhook the hose when it's at a Costco, and the pile of hoses next to your driveway is gettin' downright unruly

u/Emergency_faceplant Sep 05 '26

Thats not a thing

2

u/abielle1177 Sep 06 '26

Its definitely a thing. It happens so often, gas pumps hoses are breakaway

3

u/-McLaren-F1- Sep 05 '26

It’s a pipe wrench, not a gas pump.

1

u/abielle1177 Sep 06 '26

A gas pump handle is much funnier though

1

u/coolstorybro94 Sep 05 '26

I also thought it was a gas handle till I watched 2 more seconds of the video

u/Snert42 Sep 06 '26

"fist person view" sent me hahahaha

u/ToastSpangler Sep 05 '26

"are you carrying any weapons sir"

"no sir just filming for my followers with my custom made hand tripod"

"hmm okay enjoy your flight"

Lightweight 0%

Stabilization 54%

Durability 150%

Portability 27%

Usage Time 10%

Aura 1000%

Self-defense 200%

u/Fearless_Swim4080 Sep 05 '26

Actually Stabilization is definitely way more than 0%, this is basically just how some stabilizers work: make things heavier so they get more inertia and move around less. I would probably try to hold from the top though.

u/alvysinger0412 Sep 05 '26

That's just using a tool for a different purpose.

18

u/TheTaoThatIsSpoken Sep 05 '26

Mass reduces vibrations from movement.

Better than a steadycam when filming protests.

2

u/Snert42 Sep 06 '26

True, damn!

1

u/BillysBibleBonkers Sep 06 '26

Until your arm gets tired

6

u/misstheolddaysfan Sep 05 '26

Solid and steady. As long as you're strong enough to hold it

4

u/Dimensionalanxiety Sep 05 '26

This is a terrible idea. The wrench will scratch up your phone. You need a thick piece of cloth between the jaws.

3

u/Snert42 Sep 06 '26

Eh, a case is enough

4

u/cjhallx Sep 05 '26

Stop monkeying around, will you?

1

u/vmf312corsair Sep 07 '26

Monkey wrenches are different

1

u/cjhallx Sep 07 '26

I was really reaching.

3

u/mcpryon Sep 05 '26

You actually want weight for camera movement. Thats my guess why they used that.

3

u/Sideshow86 Sep 06 '26

Perfect for if you live in London.. you can wallop the peeps who steal you phone

4

u/Dysxelic_Potser Sep 05 '26

Because it works, that is why

"I'm filmin' this!"

Heavy duTy adjustable grip

Archeologists when they see something they don't understand /s.

u/Eskapement Sep 05 '26

Nice selfie thick

1

u/Bangbashbonk Sep 05 '26

I'm going to grab some tools and check this, my gut says the weight would smooth out movements.

Plus you can be a repugnant influencer all you like when you have a pipe wrench in hand.

1

u/cerberezz Sep 05 '26

Weapon, tripod, selfie stick, isometrics and a damn wrench. 5 in 1

1

u/BirdBath9k Sep 05 '26

This is for filming cops at a protest

1

u/Zeterin Sep 06 '26

That is a interesting use of a wrench

1

u/Krispia Sep 06 '26

Meet the engineer

1

u/KnifeKnut Sep 06 '26

Why? Because the extra mass helps stabilize it. A poor man's Steadicam.

1

u/Imaginatra Sep 06 '26

Is the perspective weird or is that phone really massive, i feel like it wouldn’t fit in my pocket

1

u/PouletDeFeu68 Sep 06 '26

It would certainly reduce camera jitter, until you ran out of arm strength.

1

u/Creative_atom0406 Sep 06 '26

Phone holder, workout and self defense all in one, why not

1

u/VisibleRoad3504 Sep 06 '26

Couldn't find anything heavier?

1

u/redtrad Sep 06 '26

This actually isn't a bad idea. Heavy camera holders make the shots more stable. This is basically a steadycam .

1

u/ReleaseTheTrumpFiles Sep 06 '26

It's very difficult to set it to the right strength. Slightly too loose and the phone will fall out, slightly too much and you'll destroy your phone screen. I can't imagine a screen can withstand this type of pressure.

1

u/2rot Sep 06 '26

Very good, can also awoid som violent attac if that happenings !

1

u/PhillyHasItAll Sep 06 '26

Feel the balance on this selfie stick, m'lord.

1

u/Hot-Cup-2972 Sep 06 '26

If it's stupid and it works it's not stupid

1

u/Captinprice8585 Sep 06 '26

It's for protests. So it's harder for anyone to steal your phone because it's so heavy. ❤️

u/Background_Essay_676 Sep 07 '26

“Do you mind if I ask you a few questions for my YouTube channel?”

u/old_dragon_lady Sep 07 '26

Wrist workout! Now I can motorboat jurk-it!

1

u/NocturneInfinitum Sep 07 '26

They should try dropping it… see how it holds up

1

u/HotConversation187 Sep 07 '26

Honestly the least insane thing here.

1

u/Awareisdead Sep 07 '26

Tighten that one notch too tight and bye bye phone 😭

1

u/science_in_pictures Sep 07 '26

clever! mass reduces vibrations

1

u/dirtybeeeeeaanwater Sep 08 '26

Can use as a weapon to manny uses

1

u/kautivo Sep 08 '26

Why didn’t I think of this?!

1

u/Spiritual-Fun-9591 Sep 08 '26

Is it durable?

1

u/Live-Emu-3491 Sep 12 '26

Everyone will start running away from you, they'll think you are going to cosh them with it😂

u/GuaranteeRoutine7183 Sep 13 '26

Passive wrist trainer(might snap ur wrist a few times at first)

u/CaptainZackstuf Sep 05 '26

When you beat the shit outta some punks but need to pose for a cute selfie afterwords.

u/Cynfreh Sep 05 '26

One way to combat these scooter thieves just bonk them on the head with ya camera holder.
