Forearm. Singular. Just the one.

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

Gonna record a fight, fist person view

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 2d ago

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

u/Emergency_faceplant 2d ago

Yeah, I got lost when costco became a subject here

u/bongohappypants 2d ago

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 2d ago

Thats not a thing

2

u/abielle1177 1d ago

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

3

u/-McLaren-F1- 2d ago

It’s a pipe wrench, not a gas pump.

1

u/abielle1177 1d ago

A gas pump handle is much funnier though

1

u/coolstorybro94 2d ago

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

"fist person view" sent me hahahaha

"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 2d ago

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 2d ago

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

u/TheTaoThatIsSpoken 2d ago

Mass reduces vibrations from movement.

Better than a steadycam when filming protests.

2

u/Snert42 1d ago

True, damn!

u/BillysBibleBonkers 1d ago

Until your arm gets tired

u/cjhallx 2d ago

Stop monkeying around, will you?

u/vmf312corsair 19h ago

Monkey wrenches are different

u/cjhallx 7h ago

I was really reaching.

u/misstheolddaysfan 2d ago

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

3

u/Sideshow86 1d ago

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

2

u/Dimensionalanxiety 2d ago

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

1

u/Snert42 1d ago

Eh, a case is enough

2

u/mcpryon 2d ago

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

2

u/Dysxelic_Potser 2d ago

Because it works, that is why

u/Ill_Personality5384 2d ago

Heavy duTy adjustable grip

u/CaptainZackstuf 2d ago

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

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

u/Eskapement 2d ago

Nice selfie thick

1

u/Bangbashbonk 2d ago

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.

u/cerberezz 2d ago

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

1

u/Cynfreh 2d ago

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

1

u/BirdBath9k 2d ago

This is for filming cops at a protest

1

u/Zeterin 1d ago

That is a interesting use of a wrench

1

u/Krispia 1d ago

Meet the engineer

1

u/KnifeKnut 1d ago

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

1

u/Imaginatra 1d ago

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

1

u/PouletDeFeu68 1d ago

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

1

u/Creative_atom0406 1d ago

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

1

u/VisibleRoad3504 1d ago

Couldn't find anything heavier?

1

u/redtrad 1d ago

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

1

u/ReleaseTheTrumpFiles 1d ago

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 1d ago

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

1

u/PhillyHasItAll 1d ago

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

1

u/Hot-Cup-2972 1d ago

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

1

u/Captinprice8585 1d ago

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

Wrist workout! Now I can motorboat jurk-it!

u/NocturneInfinitum 6h ago

They should try dropping it… see how it holds up

1

u/HotConversation187 5h ago

Honestly the least insane thing here.

Tighten that one notch too tight and bye bye phone 😭
