latodude/FacebookA good car repair hack can be worth its weight in gold. That's because paying an expert to fix your car can be a costly endeavor. Plus, learning how to repair something simple on your own can also make you feel good about yourself, since you're able to troubleshoot your car's problems that much quicker. However, not every hack is created equal, and some of those "quick fixes" can actually turn into expensive messes. That's why some online influencers create accounts where they test viral ideas, showing people how they really work. While those accounts are obviously a necessity for folks who want to know whether a DIY is a DI-don't, there's a subgenre of these accounts that turn these tests into hilarious content.AdvertisementAdvertisementTake Facebook user @Latodude, who opted to test the viral "glue stick" hack on a dent in his door, a decision that produced a hilarious response, both in the video and in the comments about the satirical clip.The Idea Seems Promising in TheoryThe video starts off with the poster watching a tutorial about the hack. If you've never heard about it before, it's pretty simple and involves heating the ends of a fistful of glue sticks up before applying them to the caved-in portion of your dent.Once they've cooled down a bit and firmly attached to the dent, you can begin phase two, which involves pulling on the glue sticks quickly to snap the dent back in place. The video example of the hack shows this part pretty clearly, and makes it look easy enough.The Actual Process of Fixing the Dent Is More Complicated for This GuyNot having a dent to work with, @Latodude must first kick a soccer ball into the side of his car to make one. After he does that, he comedically prepares his glue sticks and then follows the hack as it was shown in the original video. Once the time has come, he pulls on the sticks with a bit of comedic flair, showing that the car door hadn't been improved much in the process.AdvertisementAdvertisementThen, the camera pans out as he slams the door he was working on, and the rest of the car is revealed to be a wreck as the front passenger-side door falls off.Some People Missed the Satirical Nature of the VideoCritics were quick to hop into the comments to call @Latodude out for his missteps. "The glue sticks in the video he watched were used to pull a dent from a car bumper cover," one person wrote. "The covers are made from plastic. He was trying to pull a dent from a metal door. The glue stick trick works on the bumper covers. Results will vary.""Plastic and metal two different types of surfaces my friend lol," another person agreed.Meanwhile, a third person offered a bit of helpful advice, telling @Latodude that he could use different tools with better luck, writing, "You can buy a locking plunger exactly for that reason."AdvertisementAdvertisementWhile the glue stick pull may remain hotly debated in some circles, at least it's clear that some people are having fun with the idea.
