00:00:00 If you need to cross a river, always make sure it's in the best conditions.

00:00:05 Choose the narrowest point where the current is the least strong and try to avoid deep and fast currents.

00:00:12 If you have the opportunity, prepare robust boots and wear a walking stick.

00:00:17 This will prevent you from losing your feet.

00:00:20 When crossing, always face the current while maintaining a slight angle.

00:00:24 If you move in groups, hold on to each other by the arms, this will provide you with additional support.

00:00:30 And if the conditions are too difficult, turn around immediately.

00:00:35 Never try to cross a river at night, it's one of the most dangerous things you can try.

00:00:41 The rip currents are powerful and narrow currents that flow in the direction of the shore through the bathing area.

00:00:47 They represent a huge danger for swimmers.

00:00:50 If you are caught in a rip current, try to stay as calm as possible.

00:00:55 Move parallel to the shore until you escape the current.

00:00:59 After that, swim to the shore.

00:01:02 If you can't get out of this current, just float and call for help.

00:01:07 You can do it by raising an arm and waving your hand.

00:01:11 If you accidentally fall into rapids, immediately grab the first anchor point you see,

00:01:17 like a tree trunk or a bunch of branches, this could prevent you from being carried further.

00:01:23 Even if you feel that the water is not deep enough, don't get up to try to walk to the shore.

00:01:29 You could be carried away again by the current.

00:01:32 Try to swim along the river while approaching the shore.

00:01:37 Or you can float on your back with your feet pointed down.

00:01:41 This way, your head will be better protected.

00:01:44 Once you reach a quieter area, turn around and swim diagonally to the shore.

00:01:50 If you find yourself at sea and you see a whirlwind coming towards you, don't panic.

00:01:56 If you understand in which direction it is turning,

00:01:59 go along the edge and use the whirlwind's current to catapult yourself out of danger.

00:02:04 If you start resisting it, you risk being sucked into it.

00:02:08 But there is also a chance that a whirlwind will collapse or become weaker as it approaches the bottom.

00:02:13 So, if you are trapped, take a deep breath and wait for a chance to swim up and get away from it.

00:02:21 If you approach the edge of a waterfall and realize that the big dive is inevitable,

00:02:25 take a deep breath just before being pushed into the void and prepare for the fall.

00:02:31 Try to position your body in the same way as you were going down with your feet first.

00:02:36 Squeeze your head in your arms with your elbows pressed against your nose.

00:02:43 Then, contract your muscles and tighten your legs and feet together.

00:02:47 Don't forget to close your mouth and eyes.

00:02:50 Once you touch the water at the bottom of the waterfall,

00:02:53 start moving away from it before even going back to the surface.

00:02:58 If you fell into the water from a ship,

00:03:02 scrutinize the area around you to see if a floating object has also fallen.

00:03:06 It can be a pool ball or a plastic bottle.

00:03:10 Swim towards this object.

00:03:12 If you are lucky enough to wear a life jacket,

00:03:15 swim sideways or practice crawling backwards in brief intervals to save energy.

00:03:20 Once you reach the object, cramp and don't let go.

00:03:24 If you see something visible in the water, keep it.

00:03:28 Yellow, orange or red.

00:03:31 These colors are the most visible.

00:03:33 They can help the rescuers spot you.

00:03:36 You have to slow down the pace at which your body is cooling down.

00:03:39 You can do this by floating and not swimming.

00:03:42 In calm waters, you can float horizontally with your knees raised against your chest.

00:03:48 If the conditions are rough, it is better to float vertically,

00:03:51 focusing on not swallowing water.

00:03:54 If you start shaking a lot,

00:03:56 the air trapped in your clothes and shoes will spread,

00:03:59 reducing your ability to float.

00:04:02 So stay as still as possible.

00:04:05 Tsunamis often occur after severe earthquakes

00:04:09 in regions with large water areas.

00:04:12 The most dangerous thing about them is that they move extremely fast

00:04:16 and often flood areas without any warning.

00:04:20 The first thing you should do is to move as far away from the shore as possible

00:04:25 and find a higher ground.

00:04:27 The best would be to climb at least 30 meters above sea level.

00:04:32 Aim for large buildings and tall trees to use as shelter is not recommended,

00:04:36 but if you have no other option, climb as high as you can.

00:04:41 Finally, if you live in an area subject to tsunamis,

00:04:45 plan an evacuation route in advance.

00:04:48 This will help you to recover in a critical situation.

00:04:52 If you fell through the ice in icy water,

00:04:55 try to come back to the edge of the ice.

00:04:58 Do not try to get out by grabbing it.

00:05:01 The edge will continue to break and you will exhaust yourself in no time.

00:05:05 Beat your legs until your body is positioned horizontally in the water.

00:05:09 After that, pull yourself out of the water and climb on the ice like a seal.

00:05:14 Once you have reached it, do not get up.

00:05:17 Stay spread out on the ground.

00:05:19 This way, your weight will be distributed over a larger surface.

00:05:23 The ice will be less likely to break.

00:05:27 If you fall off a cliff, do your best to divide your fall into several stages.

00:05:32 The shorter they are, the better.

00:05:34 Each of these segments will absorb part of the impact of the fall

00:05:38 and you will have a much better chance of survival.

00:05:41 Try to hang on to a solid object, like a bush or a rock,

00:05:45 during your descent to slow down your fall.

00:05:49 There is a myth of survival that says you should drink salty water in small quantities.

00:05:55 But such a mistake can have dramatic consequences.

00:05:59 Drinking any amount of salty water will cause dehydration.

00:06:03 It is better to drink nothing than to drink this water.

00:06:08 If you are stuck in moving sand,

00:06:10 do everything you can to keep your head and arms above the surface at all times.

00:06:16 Start by moving your legs slowly.

00:06:19 The moving sand will fill the space previously occupied by your limbs.

00:06:23 Then, lie on your back.

00:06:25 This will increase the surface of your body.

00:06:27 Keep moving until your legs are free.

00:06:31 You can also do crawling back movements with your arms.

00:06:35 This will help you clear your legs.

00:06:37 Try to move your weight on your right leg

00:06:40 and gently shake your left foot by slowly bringing it closer to the surface.

00:06:44 Once you have succeeded,

00:06:46 place your knee on the surface of the sand so that it supports you.

00:06:50 By moving your weight on your left knee,

00:06:52 gently shake your right leg until you can completely kneel.

00:06:57 After that, move away from the sand.

00:07:00 Make sure not to pull on your legs too hard

00:07:03 because you could tear your ligaments.

00:07:06 A common idea would be that,

00:07:08 if you find yourself lost in the snow without drinking water at hand,

00:07:12 eating this snow would be the best way to rehydrate yourself.

00:07:16 Unfortunately, this is not true.

00:07:18 Eating snow can speed up your dehydration.

00:07:21 As soon as you put snow in your mouth,

00:07:24 your body must start a process to melt it and heat it up.

00:07:28 To do this, you will need to spend a lot of energy,

00:07:31 and this will make you lose fluids faster.

00:07:34 In addition, consuming snow can cause hypothermia.

00:07:38 This condition is twice as dangerous if you find yourself alone.

00:07:42 There are also chances that snow contains bacteria that can make you sick.

00:07:47 But if you have no other solution,

00:07:49 melt the snow you are going to consume in your hands beforehand,

00:07:52 and make sure to consume a snow that does not seem fresh and white.

00:07:58 If you are lost in nature,

00:08:00 find a stream or a small stream

00:08:02 and follow it until it spills into a larger river.

00:08:05 This should lead you to a more developed region and habitat where you can get help.

00:08:11 But do not succumb to the myth that you could drink water if you see animals drinking it.

00:08:17 If you manage to find a water source, you must first purify it.

00:08:22 Your body is very different from those of animals,

00:08:25 and if you do not purify this water before drinking it, you could get very sick.

00:08:32 Did you know that a robbery takes place every 15 seconds in the United States?

00:08:37 This means that about 4,800 robberies take place every day.

00:08:42 And the police can only find out 13% of all reported cases.

00:08:47 So yes, we are not kidding about home security.

00:08:51 I will not do it.

00:08:53 But still, do not worry.

00:08:55 You do not need to turn your house into a fortress to feel safe.

00:09:00 You can do a lot of things to prevent robbers from entering your home

00:09:04 and to protect your valuables without ruining them.

00:09:07 Each thing in its time.

00:09:09 Houses without a security system are 300% more likely to be robbed.

00:09:15 So you should consider installing one.

00:09:17 However, there are many different models.

00:09:21 So it can be difficult to choose the one that best suits your specific needs,

00:09:26 at the level of protection desired and at your budget.

00:09:29 But everything comes down to two solutions.

00:09:32 Professional installation and home installation.

00:09:35 We will examine both.

00:09:37 Systems installed by professionals require specialized supervision

00:09:42 and are generally the subject of a long-term contract.

00:09:45 These systems are paying.

00:09:47 However, the initial expense is generally relatively low

00:09:51 because suppliers scale the costs over the entire duration of the contract.

00:09:55 Once you have chosen a professional installation,

00:09:58 the company will first organize a meeting with one of its experienced technicians

00:10:04 who will conduct an evaluation and explain all the options available to you.

00:10:09 And as long as your contract is in order,

00:10:11 you can report all the problems you encounter with your system.

00:10:15 They will make sure that everything works properly.

00:10:18 In short, a professional security system will allow you to relax.

00:10:23 You won't have to spend hours watching tutorials or reading manuals.

00:10:28 However, professional security systems may not suit you,

00:10:33 especially if you are a tenant,

00:10:35 because the conditions of the contract can sometimes be restrictive.

00:10:38 Or maybe you are not a tenant and it is a question of budget.

00:10:43 In this case, a home installation is probably what you need.

00:10:47 The advantage is that if the average price is around 50 euros per month for a professional system,

00:10:53 it is only 30 euros for a home system.

00:10:56 In addition, you have nothing to pay for the installation itself.

00:11:00 However, you will have to wait for a higher initial cost if you choose this option.

00:11:05 And there is also the fact that a home installation may not be perfectly realized.

00:11:10 There may be flaws that a professional would have detected.

00:11:14 In the end, the most important thing before choosing a system

00:11:18 is to assess your needs according to where you live and your house itself.

00:11:23 Did you know that 34% of thieves go through the front door to enter people's homes?

00:11:30 If your door is not strong enough, it's a bit like inviting a burglar.

00:11:35 So you don't just have to install a security system.

00:11:38 You also have to inspect all your doors.

00:11:41 Make sure that their door hinges are strong and their hinges are well protected.

00:11:45 You can always use reinforcement kits.

00:11:48 If there is an opening for the mail in your door,

00:11:51 check that it is not possible to pass your hand through it.

00:11:54 When you move into a house or apartment where someone previously lived,

00:11:58 make sure to change the locks.

00:12:01 This will ensure that no one can enter your home using a single key.

00:12:06 Another way to secure your door is to install a connected camera.

00:12:11 This one, offered by Amazon, is extremely easy to use.

00:12:16 It is 100% wireless.

00:12:18 It has an integrated rechargeable battery that will last between 1 and 2 months.

00:12:23 So you won't have to recharge it too often.

00:12:25 You can monitor the battery's condition using the phone app.

00:12:29 It is also equipped with motion detection technology and night vision.

00:12:34 And you don't have to worry about the weather, because it is also waterproof.

00:12:39 By the way, don't forget about sliding doors.

00:12:42 You can use bars or put rails in the door to prevent them from being forced.

00:12:48 You can also install sensors that will let you know if someone is trying to open them to enter your home.

00:12:54 Now let's talk about the basics of home security.

00:12:59 The percentage of homeless people who enter a house through a window reaches 23%.

00:13:05 The main reason is that most of the time people forget to lock their doors.

00:13:10 And homeless people can always break a window.

00:13:13 If you don't want that to happen, you can try to reinforce your windows with a safety film,

00:13:19 add bars or install sensors.

00:13:22 If that's impossible for you, you can also plant spiky shrubs under the windows of your ground floor

00:13:28 to discourage thieves from breaking into your home.

00:13:32 What's the difference between an actor and a burglar?

00:13:37 Burglars don't like spotlights.

00:13:39 It's always good to have an outside light.

00:13:42 The lamps must be placed in front and behind your house, along the aisles and near the garage.

00:13:48 To make these lamps even more effective, you can use motion sensors.

00:13:53 For example, this one. It works on solar energy.

00:13:56 You can save money.

00:13:58 And that doesn't mean you won't have any more light the day the sky is cloudy.

00:14:03 It can work for five nights, no matter how rainy.

00:14:06 Burglars shouldn't be able to play hide and seek.

00:14:11 If trees and shrubs can steal your home, they can also be used as a thief's hideout.

00:14:16 That's why you have to cut down your trees and plants,

00:14:19 at least those that are near your walls.

00:14:22 Choose flowers and small bushes instead.

00:14:25 Burglars won't have any place to hide while you're gone.

00:14:30 The same goes for doors, windows, and other exterior constructions.

00:14:35 Make sure they're well locked.

00:14:37 Burglars also use stools and ladders to get in through the windows.

00:14:42 So don't try to get in through them.

00:14:45 It makes sense, but I'll say it anyway.

00:14:50 Lock your garage.

00:14:52 Even if you can't get in through there,

00:14:55 you'll probably keep some valuables that might interest the thieves.

00:14:59 You'll also be better off storing your garage door opener in your house

00:15:03 than in your car.

00:15:05 That way, burglars won't be able to get hold of it so easily.

00:15:09 If you use a security code to open your garage,

00:15:12 don't disclose it and avoid hitting it in front of strangers,

00:15:16 including your neighbors.

00:15:18 Because some neighbors are never known.

00:15:21 Setting an alarm in your driveway will also help secure your garage.

00:15:26 Burglars, but also package thieves, are a big problem today.

00:15:33 Last year, nearly one in seven Americans were victims.

00:15:37 That's when security cameras come in handy.

00:15:40 First, they have a dissuasive effect.

00:15:43 And secondly, if someone came to steal your package,

00:15:46 you'll be able to identify them with security footage.

00:15:51 If you can't afford a good security camera,

00:15:54 you can buy a fake one.

00:15:56 They're much cheaper and will make it look like your house is protected.

00:16:00 It's quite dissuasive.

00:16:02 This one is worth it if you're looking for one.

00:16:05 A little flashing light gives it a realistic look.

00:16:09 Finally, and most importantly, a safe is always useful.

00:16:14 And don't worry, it doesn't necessarily have to be

00:16:17 one of those giant, unbreakable, titanium safes you see in the movies.

00:16:21 Some burglars will always break into your house,

00:16:24 despite all your precautions.

00:16:26 So you always have to make sure your valuables are safe.

00:16:30 You can put everything you want in there.

00:16:33 Your jewelry, your most important files.

00:16:35 Everything will be well protected.

00:16:37 If you get one, make sure it's waterproof, waterproof,

00:16:41 and heavy enough so that a thief can't lift it and go with it.

00:16:46 Better safe than sorry.

00:16:48 Did you know that most burglaries happen in the middle of the day?

00:16:56 According to the FBI, burglaries happen in the middle of the day

00:16:59 because people are outside.

00:17:02 So don't let your house become an easy prey for thieves.

00:17:06 Here are 10 tips to protect your home

00:17:08 and a few security items you might need.

00:17:13 The first item on our list is the portable door lock.

00:17:16 They're not only designed for ordinary homes.

00:17:20 Let's say you live in a rental house where other guests come and go.

00:17:25 You can bring one of these portable locks with you.

00:17:28 Many rooms are equipped with secondary locking mechanisms

00:17:32 in addition to their usual locks,

00:17:34 like security chains attached to the door, for example.

00:17:37 But you shouldn't always trust them.

00:17:40 These mechanisms are held in place by screws,

00:17:43 which means they're easy to force.

00:17:46 There are many different types of portable locks.

00:17:49 So what do you need to look for?

00:17:51 The ease of use is the key to the installation and removal in case of emergency.

00:17:56 Most door locks are suitable for these items.

00:18:00 Adaloc is a good example, and these locks are available online.

00:18:04 They're relatively cheap, their design is versatile,

00:18:07 and they're delivered in one piece.

00:18:10 A few seconds is enough to increase your security.

00:18:13 Just insert the handles into the door's latch and close it.

00:18:17 The lock will be held in place by a handle.

00:18:20 And that's the job!

00:18:22 Homebodies rarely linger in your home

00:18:24 and don't bother to carry heavy objects like your TV.

00:18:28 They want to come in and out in less than 10 minutes.

00:18:31 So you need to take precautions to slow them down.

00:18:35 Le verre feuilleté is ideal for this purpose,

00:18:38 and it's a good investment.

00:18:41 Normal glass windows can break easily.

00:18:44 But glass windows act like shields.

00:18:48 They can crack, but not break.

00:18:51 Instead of getting in a hurry and drawing attention,

00:18:54 the burglar will most likely get away with it.

00:18:57 The structure of the glass is different from that of ordinary glass.

00:19:01 It keeps the glass intact even after a violent impact.

00:19:05 Le verre feuilleté windows are about 100 times more robust

00:19:08 and 5 times more durable than standard windows.

00:19:12 What makes this type of glass so special?

00:19:15 First of all, it's made up of several layers.

00:19:18 There are two layers of glass, and between the two,

00:19:20 a vinyl material that keeps the two layers intact.

00:19:25 In addition, the verre feuilleté is soundproof.

00:19:29 So you can make a stone in two hits,

00:19:35 since the middle layer absorbs some of the outside noise.

00:19:39 It's supposed to be a glass, after all.

00:19:41 Can't we see this vinyl layer?

00:19:43 That's probably the first question that comes to mind.

00:19:46 And no, the verre feuilleté is transparent,

00:19:48 just like other types of glass.

00:19:50 It allows you to enjoy a clear view like crystal,

00:19:52 while remaining safe.

00:19:54 Finally, we would all like, but alas,

00:19:56 to have our own anti-fraction glasses, specially designed for this.

00:19:59 However, you can ask professionals

00:20:01 to install a stratified glass window on your standard windows,

00:20:05 or even buy a safety glass window.

00:20:07 They all work the same way.

00:20:10 But it's obvious that such alternatives

00:20:12 can't be as robust as the verre feuilleté itself.

00:20:16 The following tips come from an old burglar,

00:20:19 Michael Fraser.

00:20:21 Today, he gives tips on how to protect yourself

00:20:23 against infractions, and his first tip is quite interesting.

00:20:27 "Don't hesitate to put a sticker

00:20:29 "Warning, bad dog" if you have one.

00:20:31 If a dog can walk around your house

00:20:33 without triggering any alarm,

00:20:35 it's obvious that a human being can too.

00:20:37 That's how burglars think.

00:20:39 In addition, many dogs can quickly become friendly,

00:20:42 unless they were specially trained to catch intruders.

00:20:45 If it's an ordinary dog,

00:20:47 you can easily lock it up in a room,

00:20:49 and you know what to do next.

00:20:51 "Say goodbye to your valuables"

00:20:53 Announcing the sale of your house online

00:20:55 is a standard procedure to attract potential buyers,

00:20:58 but also scammers.

00:21:00 With these pictures you took innocently,

00:21:02 burglars can set up floor plans.

00:21:04 Even worse, when there are virtual visits.

00:21:06 They can easily spot entrances and exits,

00:21:09 and it's the perfect tool to plan a burglary.

00:21:12 The fifth on our list

00:21:14 is buying a residential security system.

00:21:16 It allows you to prevent thefts and warn in the event of a breach.

00:21:20 According to some data,

00:21:22 houses without a security system

00:21:24 are almost three times more vulnerable to burglaries.

00:21:26 And there are many systems to choose from.

00:21:29 Some are expensive,

00:21:31 but fortunately there are more affordable options.

00:21:33 It's not even necessary to call professionals.

00:21:36 This self-assembling security system,

00:21:38 offered on the Internet,

00:21:40 is a perfect example of an economic gadget

00:21:42 with useful features.

00:21:44 These types of devices are designed to be easy to install.

00:21:47 An application will guide you through the software

00:21:49 and to configure the device itself.

00:21:51 In addition, you won't have to worry about screws, tools or drilling.

00:21:55 It also has a quick emergency service

00:21:58 that can warn authorities if you wish.

00:22:00 And as it is easy to install,

00:22:02 it is also perfect for short-term residents.

00:22:05 Do you remember that I said that if a dog could walk around your house,

00:22:08 a burglar could too?

00:22:10 Well, technology is not the ally of burglars.

00:22:12 These types of devices can now detect intruders

00:22:15 while tolerating your pet.

00:22:17 The sensors can be placed in windows, doors and corners,

00:22:21 while being adjusted to avoid false alarms

00:22:23 caused by pets.

00:22:25 Another device that can add a level of protection,

00:22:29 especially in shared homes like dorms,

00:22:32 is a door lock with alarm.

00:22:34 These devices are very compact,

00:22:36 so you can put them in your luggage

00:22:38 and even take them on holiday.

00:22:40 You can also use it in your daily life.

00:22:43 A lock can be used on any door,

00:22:46 provided it opens inwards.

00:22:48 It works like a regular lock,

00:22:50 keeping the door closed.

00:22:52 How does it work?

00:22:53 When the alarm is triggered,

00:22:55 it prevents the intruder from entering

00:22:57 and makes a loud noise.

00:22:58 This can wake the owner of the house

00:23:00 and the neighbours.

00:23:02 This product is also easy to find online.

00:23:04 Michael, the repentant burglar,

00:23:08 also recommends thinking like a burglar.

00:23:10 Ask yourself the question, "How can I get in here?"

00:23:12 It is an excellent exercise

00:23:14 to discover the vulnerable points of your house.

00:23:16 Take a look around.

00:23:18 Is there a window that can be easily opened?

00:23:20 Oh, wait, is it your laptop

00:23:22 on the desk that is visible from the street?

00:23:24 And speaking of the street,

00:23:26 if you buy a new electronic device

00:23:28 like a TV or a computer,

00:23:30 don't leave the empty boxes

00:23:32 exposed near the trash.

00:23:34 It is a real invitation for the thieves

00:23:36 who will immediately know

00:23:38 that you have expensive and new electronic devices inside.

00:23:40 Instead,

00:23:42 destroy these boxes and

00:23:44 put them in the recycling bin.

00:23:46 The windows on the ground floor

00:23:48 are unfortunately the entry points

00:23:50 of 23% of burglaries.

00:23:52 To counter this,

00:23:54 you can buy a wireless alarm kit.

00:23:56 As for the front door,

00:23:58 installing a sleeping pen

00:24:00 with a double cylinder can be a solution.

00:24:02 A motion detection lighting

00:24:04 can also work.

00:24:06 Are there blind spots in your house?

00:24:08 Choose a night vision security camera.

00:24:10 If you want to see what's going on

00:24:12 inside your house

00:24:14 rather than outside,

00:24:16 you can also get one of these high-tech security gadgets.

00:24:18 The Orbi robotized mobile sphere

00:24:20 looks like a ball

00:24:22 in which a camera is inserted.

00:24:24 Its vision is not limited.

00:24:26 Imagine that you are at the office

00:24:28 and you want to play with your dog.

00:24:30 Your furry companion can run after the dog

00:24:32 at home while you are absent

00:24:34 and you control the device.

00:24:36 Oh yes, that's right, we're here to save your house from burglars.

00:24:38 So let's leave these toys for funny animals

00:24:40 for another video.

00:24:42 And here is a shocking revelation about locks.

00:24:44 Most people think

00:24:46 they just have to protect their property.

00:24:48 Sorry to announce it to you,

00:24:50 but even the highest and strongest locks

00:24:52 are not as safe as you might think.

00:24:54 The number one rule of a burglar

00:24:56 is not to be caught.

00:24:58 And if he enters a locked house at night,

00:25:00 he is perfectly covered.

00:25:02 Your neighbors have no way

00:25:04 to see who this person is.

00:25:06 Unless you have a X-ray vision.

00:25:08 Locks must be difficult to climb.

00:25:10 One of their main reasons

00:25:12 is precisely privacy.

00:25:14 But metal locks, wire and pick,

00:25:16 are much more difficult to climb

00:25:18 for intruders.

00:25:20 Here we have played the projects of the burglar.

00:25:22 Applying the tips in this list

00:25:24 can help you discourage and prevent burglaries,

00:25:26 as well as ensure your own safety.

00:25:28 Have you ever experienced such incidents?

00:25:30 And if so, do you have other tips

00:25:32 to share with our nice viewers?

00:25:34 [Music]

00:25:37 You log in to your hotel room,

00:25:39 you connect to Wi-Fi,

00:25:41 you jump on the bed and publish 15 photos

00:25:43 of your new view from the window.

00:25:45 Once the initial excitement has passed,

00:25:47 you notice a flashing light

00:25:49 on your huge TV.

00:25:51 Could it be that someone is watching you

00:25:53 or have you just seen too many spy movies?

00:25:56 There are hidden cameras

00:25:59 of all shapes and sizes.

00:26:01 The big ones are easy to spot,

00:26:03 but the small ones can be as sneaky

00:26:05 as they are discreet.

00:26:07 They can be hidden behind furniture,

00:26:09 in decorations or ventilation nozzles,

00:26:11 and wherever you have trouble noticing them.

00:26:13 There are even special cameras

00:26:15 that can be hidden in everyday mobile objects

00:26:17 such as alarm clocks,

00:26:19 frames, vases and lamps.

00:26:21 Make sure that these objects

00:26:23 are not oriented at a strange angle

00:26:25 or that they are not placed in a way

00:26:27 that gives you the best view

00:26:29 of your bed or bathroom.

00:26:31 The easiest way to spot a hidden camera

00:26:33 is to look for the reflection of the lens

00:26:35 because all cameras are equipped with it.

00:26:37 Turn off the lights

00:26:39 and slowly scan the room

00:26:41 with a flashlight,

00:26:43 a laser pointer or a special wireless

00:26:45 spy camera detector.

00:26:47 These are equipped with infrared

00:26:49 and lighting scanning lights.

00:26:51 As soon as you discover a bright red dot,

00:26:53 you must turn on the flashlight

00:26:55 to check if there is a hidden camera.

00:26:57 Check the ventilation nozzles

00:26:59 as well as all other holes and interstices

00:27:01 in the walls or ceilings.

00:27:03 Some advanced detectors even show

00:27:05 what the camera sees,

00:27:07 which greatly facilitates tracking and deactivation.

00:27:09 However,

00:27:11 these detectors only work on

00:27:13 constantly on and off cameras.

00:27:15 Your mobile phone

00:27:17 can also help you

00:27:19 to detect these hidden threats.

00:27:21 Turn on Bluetooth and walk around.

00:27:23 Look if unknown devices

00:27:25 appear on the screen.

00:27:27 Another idea is to install

00:27:29 a network scanning application

00:27:31 that displays all devices connected

00:27:33 to the Wi-Fi network you use at the hotel.

00:27:35 Once the scanning is complete,

00:27:37 study the list to find devices

00:27:39 bearing a name such as "camera IP"

00:27:41 or "cam".

00:27:43 In addition,

00:27:45 you can put your phone in selfie mode,

00:27:47 turn off the light and close the curtains

00:27:49 and look slowly around the room

00:27:51 while focusing on the screen.

00:27:53 Keep your eyes open

00:27:55 to spot any white or purple light.

00:27:57 You can also play detective,

00:27:59 call a friend or a family member

00:28:01 and start looking around your room.

00:28:03 Hidden cameras should emit

00:28:05 a kind of radio frequency.

00:28:07 It is likely that this interferes

00:28:09 with the signal of your phone call.

00:28:11 If you start hearing

00:28:13 strange noises while you are on the phone

00:28:15 in a specific place in your room,

00:28:17 inspect it carefully.

00:28:19 Check for switches,

00:28:21 power outlets,

00:28:23 lamps and other objects

00:28:25 that you would normally not pay attention to.

00:28:27 If they look a bit out of place,

00:28:29 if they have a hole or seem badly placed,

00:28:31 it may be a sign that someone

00:28:33 has trafficked them.

00:28:35 Many espionage devices need wires

00:28:37 and the person who installed them

00:28:39 must have hidden the wires,

00:28:41 often behind a vinyl board.

00:28:43 This is why the place where the floor

00:28:45 and the wall meet is another area to inspect.

00:28:47 Crests, bumps

00:28:49 or discoloration

00:28:51 may be a sign that a microphone is hiding.

00:28:53 The same goes for the spots

00:28:55 on the ceilings and walls,

00:28:57 even if they are not bigger than a coin.

00:28:59 If you find a hidden camera

00:29:01 or something suspicious,

00:29:03 do not hesitate to inform the hotel's reception

00:29:05 or the booking service.

00:29:07 Do not try to touch

00:29:09 or move the device yourself.

00:29:11 If the hotel is not at all,

00:29:13 you can contact the police.

00:29:15 After checking that there is no camera

00:29:17 in the room,

00:29:19 check the mirrors.

00:29:21 The mirror can be seen from the other side.

00:29:23 Start by checking if the mirror

00:29:25 is embedded in the wall

00:29:27 or if it can be adjusted.

00:29:29 If it is a tinted mirror,

00:29:31 it will be embedded in the wall.

00:29:33 You can do a simple test to inspect your mirror.

00:29:35 Press the tip of your finger

00:29:37 on the glass and push firmly

00:29:39 to leave a fingerprint

00:29:41 when you remove your finger.

00:29:43 Study the fingerprint.

00:29:45 If there is a small space between the fingerprint

00:29:47 and the mirror,

00:29:49 it is a mirror.

00:29:51 On a tinted mirror,

00:29:53 there is no such space.

00:29:55 Another way to check

00:29:57 if your mirror is semi-transparent

00:29:59 is to tap the glass.

00:30:01 If someone is watching you from the other side,

00:30:03 the mirror will emit a hollow sound.

00:30:05 A tinted mirror should look brighter

00:30:07 on the other side than yours.

00:30:09 Come closer to the mirror

00:30:11 and put your hands in a visor around your eyes.

00:30:13 Do you see light behind the mirror?

00:30:15 If so,

00:30:17 you are in the right place.

00:30:19 Before leaving your room or going to bed,

00:30:21 make sure all the doors are closed.

00:30:23 Through each door,

00:30:25 you can hear not only the door opening

00:30:27 but also the door leading to the balcony

00:30:29 if you have one.

00:30:31 You can bring a portable lock

00:30:33 for more security if you are about to go to bed.

00:30:35 You can also start

00:30:37 a little DIY project

00:30:39 and wrap a belt or strap

00:30:41 around the handle that closes the door.

00:30:43 Lock it and wrap it several times

00:30:45 for extra protection.

00:30:47 Another idea for a serene nap

00:30:49 is to wrap your personal belongings

00:30:51 around the door.

00:30:53 Glasses and cups will do the trick.

00:30:55 If someone tries to enter

00:30:57 while you are sleeping,

00:30:59 there will be noise.

00:31:01 Intruders prefer to stay discreet.

00:31:03 It is therefore highly likely

00:31:05 that they will immediately give up on you.

00:31:07 If you are traveling with valuables

00:31:09 and you don't feel comfortable

00:31:11 leaving them unattended,

00:31:13 you can put them in the safe in your room.

00:31:15 But since these safes use

00:31:17 access codes instead of physical locks,

00:31:19 someone in the hotel

00:31:21 must know the code to unlock them,

00:31:23 just in case.

00:31:25 You can bring your own safe.

00:31:27 Some are even sold like books on the Internet.

00:31:29 They are made of solid metal

00:31:31 and textured paper

00:31:33 and are equipped with a lock.

00:31:35 They usually have enough space

00:31:37 to contain your passports,

00:31:39 your cash and jewellery.

00:31:41 If you want to make sure

00:31:43 that no one uses a USB key

00:31:45 to steal your data,

00:31:47 here is what you can do.

00:31:49 Leave a bottle of water

00:31:51 or another object next to the USB port.

00:31:53 Measure the distance.

00:31:55 Let's say it is 1 or 2 cm.

00:31:57 In order for someone to plug

00:31:59 their gadget into the laptop,

00:32:01 they will necessarily have to move the bottle.

00:32:03 You can go further and place a pen

00:32:05 parallel to the laptop

00:32:07 at a certain angle.

00:32:09 You can also use your phone

00:32:11 or your watch to help the app.

00:32:13 Again, if someone moves it,

00:32:15 you will know immediately.

00:32:17 Even something as simple as a panel

00:32:19 not being disturbed can help you

00:32:21 know if someone has entered your room

00:32:23 while you were away.

00:32:25 Pretend you left in a hurry

00:32:27 and the panel accidentally got stuck

00:32:29 between the door and its frame.

00:32:31 If you come back and the panel

00:32:33 is free, it means someone ignored it

00:32:35 and tried to disturb you.

00:32:37 You can also ask for someone to come

00:32:39 into the room with you to ensure your safety.

00:32:41 If you care as much about

00:32:43 the cleanliness of your room

00:32:45 as you do about your personal safety,

00:32:47 this advice is for you.

00:32:49 Hotel employees

00:32:51 normally have to take care of

00:32:53 20 rooms per 8-hour work shift.

00:32:55 This means they won't have

00:32:57 more than 30 minutes to take care

00:32:59 of your room.

00:33:01 This gives them enough time to make the bed,

00:33:03 clean the floor of the room and the bathroom,

00:33:05 empty the trash and dust off

00:33:07 all surfaces.

00:33:09 But they rarely have time to take care

00:33:11 of small objects like switches,

00:33:13 door handles and drawers or remote controls.

00:33:15 Yes, these are precisely

00:33:17 the objects you will be in contact with the most.

00:33:19 They can even receive

00:33:21 more germs than the toilets.

00:33:23 So, if you want to be sure

00:33:25 that these germs won't land on your hands,

00:33:27 take enough antibacterial

00:33:29 wipes to clean all these objects

00:33:31 before touching them.

00:33:33 This is a phenomenon that occurs

00:33:35 every 43.8 seconds.

00:33:37 What is car theft in the United States?

00:33:39 Yes, every minute someone gets his precious car

00:33:41 stolen by thieves.

00:33:43 If you want to know more

00:33:45 about these disappointing statistics,

00:33:47 here is the list.

00:33:49 More than 800,000 car thefts

00:33:51 were reported in the United States

00:33:53 only in 2020.

00:33:55 And Ford pick-ups win the palm

00:33:57 of the choice of thieves,

00:33:59 because it is the one that has been

00:34:01 the most stolen.

00:34:03 It seems that we should all

00:34:05 keep an eye on our cars.

00:34:07 First of all, it is very unlikely

00:34:09 that someone steals your car while you are on the move.

00:34:11 But once you have parked it,

00:34:13 it is much easier.

00:34:15 So you have to park it carefully.

00:34:17 Yes, sometimes you will have to

00:34:19 walk a little, but it is worth it

00:34:21 if it means leaving your car

00:34:23 in a well-lit place.

00:34:25 Cars that are badly parked

00:34:27 are often removed by car dealers.

00:34:29 It turns out that they are not all

00:34:31 authentic.

00:34:33 If you see one near your car,

00:34:35 make sure it is a real or a fake one.

00:34:37 A real car dealer

00:34:39 should at least have a company logo

00:34:41 and his staff should wear a uniform.

00:34:43 Do you remember that I told you

00:34:47 that it was not so easy to steal your car

00:34:49 while you were driving?

00:34:51 Sorry, but it is only partially true.

00:34:53 Car thieves are quite concerned

00:34:55 that you are sitting in your car.

00:34:57 It's simple. Even if you are inside

00:34:59 your car, always make sure to lock

00:35:01 the doors.

00:35:03 Car thieves generally have clever strategies

00:35:05 to get car dealers out of their cars.

00:35:07 They can even set a trap

00:35:09 and set up a car accident.

00:35:11 So, even if you see

00:35:13 that your car has been hit from behind,

00:35:15 do not rush out of your car

00:35:17 to see what it is. Wait a little

00:35:19 before parking. Make sure that the place

00:35:21 where you are going to stop is safe

00:35:23 and that there are people around you.

00:35:25 If you have any doubts, it is better

00:35:27 to call the police.

00:35:29 If you are ready to invest a little

00:35:31 to protect your car,

00:35:33 here are some tips.

00:35:35 You can install a remote starter.

00:35:37 It is not only a great idea for those

00:35:39 who live in cold regions

00:35:41 and need to start their car in advance.

00:35:43 Its main advantage is that you cannot

00:35:45 run away with a car started this way

00:35:47 because this mode does not allow

00:35:49 to pass the speed limits.

00:35:51 Every car has a vehicle identification number

00:35:53 VIN.

00:35:55 It may seem like a gadget,

00:35:57 but here is a good thing.

00:35:59 When thieves sell a stolen car,

00:36:01 they change the vehicle's identification number.

00:36:03 This practice allows to hide a stolen car

00:36:05 and to use another

00:36:07 identification number from a similar car.

00:36:09 But if, on the contrary, you engrave your

00:36:11 identification number on each window of your car,

00:36:13 thieves will immediately see that your car

00:36:15 is well protected.

00:36:17 In addition, such a vehicle will seem complicated to them.

00:36:19 After all, they will have to

00:36:21 change the vehicle's identification number

00:36:23 and find a way to modify the windows

00:36:25 on which the vehicle's identification number is engraved.

00:36:27 They will probably have to

00:36:29 completely change the windows,

00:36:31 which is very expensive.

00:36:33 The resale of such a car would therefore

00:36:35 take too much time for the thieves.

00:36:37 And they are not ready to make so much effort.

00:36:39 These people do not even want to work.

00:36:41 They are too lazy to take care

00:36:43 of this window thing.

00:36:45 By the way, some specialists can do this engraving work

00:36:47 for you, which prevents you from

00:36:49 having to take care of it yourself.

00:36:51 In addition, if you want to buy a used car,

00:36:55 the car's identification number

00:36:57 can be very useful.

00:36:59 Some cars are in a way cloned,

00:37:01 which means that their identification number is not real

00:37:03 but has simply been added manually to the plate.

00:37:05 So check all the documents

00:37:07 before buying a used car.

00:37:09 Pay special attention to the document

00:37:11 D V L A V 5

00:37:13 and make sure that the number of identification

00:37:15 that appears there matches the vehicle's

00:37:17 identification number.

00:37:19 Here is another protection device.

00:37:21 It is called the smart car alarm.

00:37:23 And the sound it makes is even more unpleasant

00:37:25 than the sound of a wake-up call.

00:37:27 It can perform the following functions.

00:37:29 First, it emits a very loud noise

00:37:31 that can scare off intruders and alert passers-by.

00:37:33 Secondly, it can send you a warning message

00:37:35 in case you have not heard

00:37:37 the deafening honk that it emits.

00:37:39 Another secret mechanism

00:37:43 that can protect your car.

00:37:45 You can install an emergency stop button

00:37:47 that you can connect to the ignition,

00:37:49 the battery, the fuel line, etc.

00:37:51 When you get out of the car,

00:37:53 you just have to press a button.

00:37:55 Even if the car's driver steals your keys

00:37:57 in some way or another,

00:37:59 it will be of no use to them.

00:38:01 They will first have to find the switch

00:38:03 to start the car, and it's up to you

00:38:05 to decide where you're going to hide it.

00:38:07 We all know that the safer our car is,

00:38:09 the better. Criminals don't like

00:38:11 to mess with new technology,

00:38:13 and that's a fact.

00:38:15 Tesla cars, as well as other high-tech vehicles,

00:38:17 have been the least stolen in recent years.

00:38:19 However, "modern" doesn't mean "no danger"

00:38:21 and "safe from thieves."

00:38:23 Many recent models

00:38:25 have onboard OBD ports

00:38:27 for engine management.

00:38:29 It seems very practical,

00:38:31 but there is a drawback.

00:38:33 These ports can help you unlock

00:38:35 and even start the car.

00:38:37 So if your car has such a device,

00:38:39 think about getting yourself a lockable cover.

00:38:41 Always check if you've closed the windows

00:38:43 before leaving your car.

00:38:45 Any gap is enough

00:38:47 to open the door and steal the car.

00:38:49 Yes, don't tell me

00:38:51 it's obvious.

00:38:53 I see cars every day with open windows.

00:38:55 If a thief really wants it,

00:38:57 he can simply break a window

00:38:59 with a heavy object,

00:39:01 or even a rock.

00:39:03 You see where I'm coming from?

00:39:05 So try not to make the thief want to open your car.

00:39:07 That means that no valuables

00:39:09 should be visible.

00:39:11 So, please, no laptop

00:39:13 or handbag on the front seat.

00:39:15 Hide them in the trunk or take them with you.

00:39:17 There are plenty of options.

00:39:19 Don't show the thief that there is something

00:39:21 they can steal from you.

00:39:23 Keeping a double set of keys

00:39:25 in the glove box is not the best idea either.

00:39:27 The bad guys know where to look for it.

00:39:29 It's very simple.

00:39:31 After opening the door,

00:39:33 which is not very complicated,

00:39:35 they just have to look in the glove box

00:39:37 and leave you alone.

00:39:39 Let's say you always keep

00:39:41 your valuables in the car

00:39:43 and a double set of keys in the glove box.

00:39:45 It's your choice.

00:39:47 So try to at least

00:39:49 install a steering wheel anti-theft device.

00:39:51 It's probably not very functional,

00:39:53 but experts believe it's

00:39:55 a visually effective means of dissuasion.

00:39:57 Do you remember that thieves are a bit lazy

00:39:59 and don't want to get their hands on gadgets?

00:40:01 Experts say that thieves

00:40:03 are more inclined to ignore a car

00:40:05 than to get a steering wheel anti-theft device.

00:40:07 Some of them are very functional.

00:40:09 So even if a thief

00:40:11 wants to steal your car,

00:40:13 he won't be able to do it

00:40:15 because it's not easy to get rid of it.

00:40:17 Here is the most obvious advice.

00:40:19 It's video surveillance.

00:40:21 There are a wide variety of cameras

00:40:23 of this type.

00:40:25 They have night vision modes,

00:40:27 detection functions and a very high resolution.

00:40:29 Literally everything you might need.

00:40:31 A real camera can help you

00:40:33 to get a good shot of the car.

00:40:35 It's a 24/7 system.

00:40:37 But if you don't want to spend money on it,

00:40:39 you can install a fake one

00:40:41 hoping that thieves won't notice it.

00:40:43 Let's imagine the worst.

00:40:45 Someone ignored all these tips

00:40:47 and got his car stolen.

00:40:49 What should he do?

00:40:51 First of all, he should provide

00:40:53 a bunch of information to the police.

00:40:55 So make sure you know the color.

00:40:57 I know, it seems easy.

00:40:59 But don't use complicated terms

00:41:01 like "mousse" or "dark green".

00:41:03 You should also know the year,

00:41:05 the brand and the model.

00:41:07 Make sure you remember all these elements.

00:41:09 The police should also know

00:41:11 the license plate number

00:41:13 and the car's ID number.

00:41:15 If you don't remember the ID number,

00:41:17 note it down on your phone, just in case.

00:41:19 Oops!

00:41:21 Another robbery just happened in the US.

00:41:23 22.6 seconds left

00:41:25 and there will be another one.

00:41:27 And this is the kind of thing

00:41:29 that happens everywhere.

00:41:31 But if you're prepared, everything will be fine.

00:41:33 Here are some tips to protect your home.

00:41:35 A simple sticker can greatly contribute

00:41:39 to the safety of your home.

00:41:41 You can, for example, use one

00:41:43 that indicates that you have a security system

00:41:45 at home, even if it's not the case.

00:41:47 It may seem like a small thing,

00:41:49 but know that robbers

00:41:51 don't like to complicate their lives.

00:41:53 Another tip, make sure

00:41:55 your sticker is realistic.

00:41:57 A simple sticker won't do the trick.

00:41:59 It's better to spend a little money

00:42:01 for something convincing.

00:42:03 Another tip is to leave

00:42:07 a large pair of boots on your Porsche

00:42:09 and make sure that the robbers see them.

00:42:11 They will think that there is

00:42:13 someone potentially dangerous in your house

00:42:15 and they won't want to come in.

00:42:17 Now, let's inspect your door.

00:42:23 I hope you don't leave your keys

00:42:25 in the lockbox.

00:42:27 The only things you should put

00:42:29 are biscuits or crisps.

00:42:31 It's a way to know if someone

00:42:33 has visited you during your absence.

00:42:35 But this tip is not 100% reliable.

00:42:37 It may be just the deliveryman

00:42:39 or the deliveryman who passed by.

00:42:41 Or even a dog that came to sniff

00:42:43 the doorstep.

00:42:45 Yes, biscuits have a place in your stomach,

00:42:47 not in your lockbox.

00:42:49 You come home from work,

00:42:51 your day was hard and you're tired.

00:42:53 You leave your key in the lockbox

00:42:55 and you don't think about it anymore.

00:42:57 The main thing is that you have locked your door

00:42:59 and that the key is inside.

00:43:01 But maybe a robber is hiding in the bushes,

00:43:03 ready to take action.

00:43:05 Technically, it should be impossible

00:43:07 to use a copy and enter

00:43:09 if there is a key in the lockbox.

00:43:11 But these guys are well equipped

00:43:13 and have a whole bunch of hooks

00:43:15 to drop your key.

00:43:17 And you know the rest.

00:43:19 They can enter your house as discreetly

00:43:21 as you can get hold of all your valuables

00:43:23 while you sleep.

00:43:25 A lock that can only be locked from the inside

00:43:27 and cannot be opened from the outside

00:43:29 should be a good solution.

00:43:31 When you move into a new house,

00:43:33 even if you are only the tenant,

00:43:35 make sure to change the locks.

00:43:37 Who knows how many people

00:43:39 have a copy of your keys?

00:43:41 As a tenant, you won't necessarily know

00:43:43 who lived there before you.

00:43:45 And if for one reason or another

00:43:47 you accidentally forgot your keys

00:43:49 at the front door for a while,

00:43:51 you absolutely need to change your lock.

00:43:53 Nothing serious will probably happen,

00:43:55 but who knows,

00:43:57 it's always better to be careful.

00:43:59 You should not only make sure

00:44:03 not to forget your keys

00:44:05 on the wrong side of your door,

00:44:07 but don't let them hang anywhere either.

00:44:09 Bring them to your living room

00:44:11 instead of putting them on this piece of furniture

00:44:13 at the front door.

00:44:15 Robbers can pass through your door

00:44:17 and steal your keys.

00:44:19 Be careful of your trash,

00:44:21 especially if you throw expensive objects

00:44:23 in your trash.

00:44:25 Don't tell the robbers about your purchases

00:44:27 and their prices.

00:44:29 And your trash can contain important information

00:44:31 about your life,

00:44:33 your credit card address,

00:44:35 and much more.

00:44:37 Watch your mailbox.

00:44:39 Make sure it is locked.

00:44:41 Robbers might be interested

00:44:43 in its contents.

00:44:45 It's simple, lock your mailbox

00:44:47 and make sure to tear off all the documents

00:44:49 containing your personal data.

00:44:51 Now, let's examine

00:44:55 your lawn.

00:44:57 I can see something is wrong.

00:44:59 I'm talking about these big bushes.

00:45:01 Yes, I know you don't have time to detail them,

00:45:03 but the bigger they are,

00:45:05 the better the robbers can hide.

00:45:07 In addition, if your bushes and trees

00:45:09 are badly cut,

00:45:11 you might think there's no one at home.

00:45:13 I see where I'm going.

00:45:15 Well, let's say you ignored my advice

00:45:19 and the robbers

00:45:21 broke into your house.

00:45:23 First, they will try to find species.

00:45:25 If you don't have any at home,

00:45:27 you can pass this advice.

00:45:29 But if you have any,

00:45:31 show some creativity.

00:45:33 You can hide your species in a plastic bag

00:45:35 and in a container with leftovers.

00:45:37 You can also place this plastic bag

00:45:39 in an empty bottle of detergent

00:45:41 and store it in a cupboard

00:45:43 or in the kitchen.

00:45:45 The robbers probably won't put their nose in there.

00:45:47 There are two things you shouldn't do.

00:45:49 Hiding money or jewels

00:45:51 in a medicine box

00:45:53 is not very smart.

00:45:55 And your freezer is not a good option either.

00:45:57 It's a well-known hideout for the bad guys.

00:45:59 Now, let's see how you keep your keys.

00:46:05 Your car and house keys are on the same game.

00:46:07 This might not be a great idea.

00:46:09 First, imagine you lose them

00:46:11 and the robbers know where you live.

00:46:13 Not only will they take your luggage,

00:46:15 but they will also have a vehicle

00:46:17 to transport all your valuables.

00:46:19 Also, be careful with your garage key,

00:46:25 especially if it's possible to get in

00:46:27 through this room.

00:46:29 And even if it's not,

00:46:31 there are certainly things that will interest

00:46:33 the robbers in your garage.

00:46:35 The robbers are full of resources.

00:46:37 They can sneak into houses,

00:46:39 even through the smallest windows.

00:46:41 If they prefer to go through the door,

00:46:45 it's because it's safe.

00:46:47 If they go through the window,

00:46:49 they can get hurt or tear their clothes.

00:46:51 If they leave traces of DNA,

00:46:53 they can be found.

00:46:55 But the robbers make sure

00:46:57 they don't leave any traces.

00:46:59 According to an English study,

00:47:01 only about 3% of the robbers

00:47:03 would leave such clues on their way in.

00:47:05 To protect yourself at night,

00:47:07 there are several options.

00:47:09 The first one,

00:47:11 insert a big trombone

00:47:13 or a hair clip inside your lock.

00:47:15 You can also use a spare key

00:47:17 if you have one.

00:47:19 This way,

00:47:21 you will make it extremely difficult,

00:47:23 if not impossible,

00:47:25 to use the doubles by the robbers.

00:47:27 Second option,

00:47:29 barricade yourself.

00:47:31 You can use a heavy chair,

00:47:33 but it's not safe.

00:47:35 If your door opens outward,

00:47:39 a lock could be a good idea.

00:47:41 A chair can be very useful.

00:47:43 Lock it under the handle of your door.

00:47:45 It's not the most powerful security system,

00:47:47 but it can work.

00:47:49 Attaching the handles with a cable

00:47:51 or a rope is also a solution.

00:47:53 A fake security camera

00:47:59 can protect you day and night.

00:48:01 But the robbers are not as brave

00:48:03 as you might think.

00:48:05 If you have a real security system,

00:48:07 make sure the robbers don't deactivate it.

00:48:09 Put it in a hard to reach place.

00:48:11 If you don't spend money

00:48:15 to protect yourself,

00:48:17 motion sensors are exactly what you need.

00:48:19 The robbers like dark places

00:48:21 and when they approach your house,

00:48:23 all this light will scare them.

00:48:25 This solution works

00:48:27 if the robbers don't know you're home.

00:48:29 If they know you're not there,

00:48:31 it's less effective.

00:48:33 Television and radio

00:48:35 are another solution.

00:48:37 Thanks to them,

00:48:39 you can make people believe

00:48:41 you're home at any time.

00:48:43 With motion sensors,

00:48:45 it's the perfect combination.

00:48:47 This trick will protect you

00:48:49 from most burglaries,

00:48:51 but it's not a 100% guarantee.

00:48:53 Some robbers don't hesitate

00:48:55 to come in even if the TV is on.

00:48:57 I'm talking about dogs, of course.

00:48:59 Remember the boot trick?

00:49:01 You can do the same thing

00:49:03 with a dog if you don't have one.

00:49:05 Put a big bowl on your porch

00:49:07 but make sure it's realistic.

00:49:09 The bowl can't be brand new,

00:49:11 it has to be a little bit crooked.

00:49:13 Do you know all your neighbours?

00:49:17 If not,

00:49:19 it's high time you make cookies

00:49:21 and show them around.

00:49:23 First of all,

00:49:25 we don't like working in neighbourhoods

00:49:27 where people know each other

00:49:29 and support each other.

00:49:31 They have more chances

00:49:33 to be spotted and caught.

00:49:35 Getting organised with your neighbours

00:49:37 is a great way to stay safe

00:49:39 and, who knows,

00:49:41 make new friends.

00:49:43 There are more and more burglaries

00:49:45 in your neighbourhood.

00:49:47 You're wondering if your house

00:49:49 could be targeted.

00:49:51 You don't have a surveillance system.

00:49:53 Put some aluminium foil

00:49:55 on the door handle

00:49:57 before going to bed.

00:49:59 It will tell you if someone

00:50:01 tried to break in

00:50:03 while you were sleeping.

00:50:05 You wake up the next morning

00:50:07 and see the foil is slightly torn.

00:50:09 Someone has been here

00:50:11 and is sure they'll come back.

00:50:13 Another option is to put a cup

00:50:15 on the door handle.

00:50:17 When the handle turns,

00:50:19 the cup will fall.

00:50:21 You'll probably be the intruder.

00:50:23 You should be careful

00:50:27 if a worker has been to your house.

00:50:29 He told you he worked nearby

00:50:31 and asked you to use the toilet.

00:50:33 You refused

00:50:35 and regretted being impolite

00:50:37 at the time.

00:50:39 But you did the right thing.

00:50:41 About 60% of burglaries

00:50:43 in the US are caused by someone

00:50:45 you know or have met.

00:50:47 This worker,

00:50:49 who went to the toilet,

00:50:51 could have adjusted something

00:50:53 in your house to make it easier.

00:50:55 He may have wanted to check

00:50:57 your security system,

00:50:59 check for different ways

00:51:01 to get in,

00:51:03 or see if you keep valuables at home.

00:51:05 Today, you're finally going on holiday.

00:51:09 You must prepare your house

00:51:11 so it's not the target of burglars.

00:51:13 A full mailbox will immediately

00:51:17 show you their potential.

00:51:19 Ask your neighbor to empty it

00:51:21 while you're away.

00:51:23 A well-kept property

00:51:25 means its owners are always there.

00:51:27 Your lawn is always taut

00:51:29 and well-cut.

00:51:31 You should ask someone

00:51:33 to do it during your holidays.

00:51:35 It's winter.

00:51:37 The snow around your house

00:51:39 could tell burglars

00:51:41 you're not home.

00:51:43 Asking a neighbor to make footsteps

00:51:45 could be a good idea.

00:51:47 Some types of hedges

00:51:49 are very useful to prevent people

00:51:51 from entering your home.

00:51:53 Pointed-leaf shrubs are a good idea.

00:51:55 If someone jumps into your garden

00:51:59 and lands on a bush full of thorns,

00:52:01 they'll immediately scream in pain.

00:52:03 Your neighbors will know

00:52:05 there's an intruder.

00:52:07 Thorns will also hang

00:52:09 pieces of fabric

00:52:11 that can later serve as evidence.

00:52:13 In preparation for your trip

00:52:15 last week,

00:52:17 you opened and closed

00:52:19 your curtains at different times.

00:52:21 You made sure

00:52:23 to do it regularly.

00:52:25 It doesn't matter

00:52:27 if it's open or closed.

00:52:29 This is in case someone

00:52:31 is watching your property.

00:52:33 Burglars always take the time

00:52:35 to observe houses in certain neighborhoods

00:52:37 before detecting vulnerable homes.

00:52:41 And they hate

00:52:43 vigilant neighbors.

00:52:45 They check before taking action

00:52:47 and avoid areas

00:52:49 where patrols are carried out.

00:52:51 Why not organize one with your neighbors?

00:52:53 Keep all expensive electronic devices

00:52:57 away from the windows

00:52:59 so that they can't be seen from the outside.

00:53:01 Put them in a closet

00:53:03 or in a closed room.

00:53:05 Don't worry about your TV.

00:53:07 It's too bulky

00:53:09 and difficult to use.

00:53:11 Criminals are more interested

00:53:13 in your iPad and your game console.

00:53:15 Put your jewelry and other valuables

00:53:19 in boxes and hide them

00:53:21 in a secret place.

00:53:23 Children's rooms are usually

00:53:25 a good hiding place.

00:53:27 Burglars have recognized

00:53:29 never to enter because toys

00:53:31 are cheap.

00:53:33 Take pictures of all the serial numbers

00:53:35 of your electronic devices

00:53:37 and put them in a safe place.

00:53:39 95% of burglaries

00:53:43 are done by force.

00:53:45 You should consolidate your windows

00:53:47 and doors.

00:53:49 You can make the task

00:53:51 even more difficult with a mallet.

00:53:53 Remove all the stools, chairs

00:53:55 and ladders from your garden

00:53:57 and put them in your garage.

00:53:59 It could help thieves

00:54:01 to access the highest entry points

00:54:03 like the air conditioning openings.

00:54:05 They often go through there

00:54:07 because they can't be reinforced

00:54:09 and are easy to tear to enter your home.

00:54:11 Don't make the task easier

00:54:13 by providing them with a ladder.

00:54:15 Burglars can smash

00:54:17 a fragile door in a minute.

00:54:19 A metal frame

00:54:21 will provide you with more protection

00:54:23 than a wooden frame.

00:54:25 The hinges and the lock

00:54:27 must be strong enough

00:54:29 to resist the kick.

00:54:31 After a while, they will drop.

00:54:33 But don't worry,

00:54:35 they can be easily picked up

00:54:37 by an experienced thief.

00:54:39 With a simple lock,

00:54:41 you can be sure

00:54:43 that no one will go through.

00:54:45 The hinges of your garage door

00:54:47 rotate outward,

00:54:49 which makes it vulnerable.

00:54:51 You can access it

00:54:53 by simply removing the pins.

00:54:55 Replace them with secured pins

00:54:57 that can't be removed.

00:54:59 Finally, the doors of the garage

00:55:01 are the first access point for burglars.

00:55:03 They don't have locks

00:55:05 and can be easily opened.

00:55:07 Attach a lock on the locket

00:55:09 that connects it to the slide.

00:55:11 It won't move.

00:55:13 If your garage door

00:55:15 doesn't allow you to do so,

00:55:17 drill a hole in the slide

00:55:19 just above the metal curtain

00:55:21 and place a lock.

00:55:23 Thieves are afraid of dogs.

00:55:25 They watch and guard your house.

00:55:27 According to a study,

00:55:29 most burglars didn't have dogs.

00:55:31 Remember that

00:55:33 a burglar can wake up a whole neighborhood.

00:55:35 But you don't have a dog at home.

00:55:37 You just need to place a lock

00:55:39 in front of your door

00:55:41 to discourage thieves.

00:55:43 Burglars have adapted

00:55:45 to modern technology.

00:55:47 4 criminals out of 5

00:55:49 use social networks

00:55:51 like Facebook, Twitter

00:55:53 and Google Maps to choose their target.

00:55:55 If you share a photo

00:55:57 where you can see the keys

00:55:59 of your house,

00:56:01 a burglar can zoom in

00:56:03 and take the exact measurements

00:56:05 to create a double.

00:56:07 Make sure your network

00:56:09 is secure

00:56:11 and use a password

00:56:13 during your absence.

00:56:15 Thieves don't only care

00:56:17 about the objects you own.

00:56:19 Your passwords and access codes

00:56:21 are vulnerable to an insecure network.

00:56:23 And beware of surveillance software

00:56:25 and other harmful viruses.

00:56:27 You can also block

00:56:31 your house's view

00:56:33 on Google Maps.

00:56:35 Type your address,

00:56:37 look for your residence

00:56:39 in the image,

00:56:41 press "option" and select "report a problem".

00:56:43 A page with a picture of your house will appear.

00:56:47 You can then place a red square

00:56:49 to cover your property.

00:56:53 Ask for the picture to be blurred

00:56:55 under the "My house" option

00:56:57 and select your exact address.

00:56:59 The processing of your request

00:57:01 will take a few days.

00:57:03 Don't let the radio on

00:57:05 during your absence.

00:57:07 It's useless.

00:57:09 When they watch your house,

00:57:11 thieves pay attention to the radio

00:57:13 and television.

00:57:15 If they notice that your devices

00:57:17 are never off,

00:57:19 they will know that they can enter

00:57:21 your house.

00:57:23 A better way to protect yourself

00:57:25 is to create your own audio recording.

00:57:27 Ambient sounds

00:57:29 are played irregularly

00:57:31 throughout the day.

00:57:33 With footsteps, conversations

00:57:35 and a barking dog.

00:57:37 Leaving your lights on

00:57:39 is not a good idea either.

00:57:41 Thieves will notice your house

00:57:43 more easily, especially at night.

00:57:45 And you will receive

00:57:47 a very high electricity bill.

00:57:49 You are about to go on holiday

00:57:51 and you have to take out the trash.

00:57:53 If you have large boxes,

00:57:55 fold them so that they fit

00:57:57 in your trash.

00:57:59 Hide everything that could indicate

00:58:01 that you have valuables at home.

00:58:03 One last look,

00:58:07 all doors are locked

00:58:09 and windows are closed.

00:58:11 You will finally be able to enjoy your trip.

00:58:13 But while you have fun

00:58:15 in your holiday home,

00:58:17 keep photos on your phone

00:58:19 until you return.

00:58:21 You will have time to share them with your friends.

00:58:23 If you share your photos

00:58:27 during your absence,

00:58:29 all these preparations will be useless.

00:58:31 All the criminals in the region

00:58:33 will know that you have left.

00:58:35 With 2.5 million houses

00:58:39 robbed each year in the United States,

00:58:41 know that a property without a security system

00:58:43 has 300% more chances

00:58:45 of being targeted.

00:58:47 When you return,

00:58:49 think of installing one.

00:58:51 It will be very useful to you.

00:58:53 Hey look, it's your friend George

00:58:55 and he has a dog that you've never seen with him.

00:58:57 Ah, it's his sister's new puppy.

00:58:59 And he's so cute!

00:59:01 You desperately want to pet him,

00:59:03 but before you act,

00:59:05 here are some points to consider.

00:59:07 First of all, contact your friend

00:59:09 and ask him if you can pet the dog.

00:59:11 From what you know,

00:59:13 he may be afraid of strangers

00:59:15 or even be a little nervous in their presence.

00:59:17 Who knows,

00:59:19 he may be ill-lucky today.

00:59:21 Maybe this time the dog

00:59:23 didn't bring him the cookie

00:59:25 by sending the mail.

00:59:27 By looking at the dog,

00:59:29 you can start to approach him carefully.

00:59:31 Or even better,

00:59:33 you can let the dog get close to you.

00:59:35 Look at how he reacts.

00:59:37 Don't rush,

00:59:39 arms open as if you were looking for a hug.

00:59:41 Don't make a sudden gesture

00:59:43 and don't look scary,

00:59:45 otherwise it could give him the signal

00:59:47 to get into a defensive position

00:59:49 and to get back on his feet.

00:59:51 It's not what you want.

00:59:53 The final goal is for him to become your friend,

00:59:55 isn't it?

00:59:57 If you really want to be sure

00:59:59 that he's ready to interact with you,

01:00:01 ignore him.

01:00:03 Okay, it sounds counterproductive,

01:00:05 but imagine the scene.

01:00:07 You're outside talking to your friend

01:00:09 and you're not paying attention.

01:00:11 The rest is easy.

01:00:13 If you decide to approach him first,

01:00:15 let him take the last steps.

01:00:17 Oh, and don't look him directly in the eyes.

01:00:19 You probably already know

01:00:21 that it's more polite to look someone in the eyes

01:00:23 when you talk to him.

01:00:25 It's a matter of common sense.

01:00:27 Well, in the world of dogs,

01:00:29 it means the opposite.

01:00:31 He may not like you too much

01:00:33 if you look him in the eyes.

01:00:35 He might even think you're rude.

01:00:37 Now let him sniff you.

01:00:39 Show him a relaxed posture,

01:00:41 but do it slowly,

01:00:43 because you still don't want to scare your new friend.

01:00:45 You can now stretch your hand,

01:00:47 but always slowly.

01:00:49 Do it with your palm down

01:00:51 and your fingers slightly bent down

01:00:53 for safety reasons.

01:00:55 A small bite can still hurt.

01:00:57 Let the dog feel comfortable with you.

01:00:59 If you notice that he's sniffing your hand

01:01:01 for a long time, let him do it.

01:01:03 Dogs also need to feel comfortable

01:01:05 with strangers.

01:01:07 But if he's too excited,

01:01:09 he could become the one who invades your private space

01:01:11 by jumping everywhere and licking you.

01:01:13 Don't worry, though.

01:01:15 Stay calm.

01:01:17 If you start to feel uncomfortable,

01:01:19 you can get out of this situation

01:01:21 by turning your arms across.

01:01:23 This way, you'll get boring for the dog

01:01:25 and he'll start to get disinterested in you.

01:01:27 His master will then have the possibility

01:01:29 to calm him down or even take him elsewhere.

01:01:31 If you talk to the dog,

01:01:33 make sure you speak in German

01:01:35 because it's the most common language among dogs.

01:01:37 No, that's wrong.

01:01:39 Try to use a calm and reassuring tone.

01:01:41 And now, here's the part you've been waiting for.

01:01:45 You can let him pet you,

01:01:47 but don't jump on him

01:01:49 and don't start to take him in your arms.

01:01:51 Keep the rhythm you've had with him so far.

01:01:53 Don't pet him on the head.

01:01:55 Your hand won't be in his field of vision

01:01:57 if you do that, and you have to admit

01:01:59 that a hand coming out of nowhere

01:02:01 is a bit too much.

01:02:03 You can start by petting his ears and neck.

01:02:05 They also like to be rubbed on the back and shoulders.

01:02:07 While petting the dog,

01:02:09 keep paying attention to his body language

01:02:11 because if his body is slightly curved,

01:02:13 if he's wagging his tail

01:02:15 and if he's turning around you with excitement,

01:02:17 it's a good sign,

01:02:19 and it means he wants to get to know you better.

01:02:21 One thing we like about dogs

01:02:23 when they play is when they stretch

01:02:25 their front paws on the floor while prostrating.

01:02:27 If he does that, it's a win.

01:02:29 He clearly wants to play.

01:02:31 But be careful of his behavior

01:02:33 which indicates he doesn't really like being with you.

01:02:35 If he shows his teeth

01:02:37 or growls at you,

01:02:39 it's a sign you need to step back.

01:02:41 A stiff and straight tail can also mean

01:02:43 he feels threatened.

01:02:45 There's also another way for dogs

01:02:47 to show they're stressed or anxious.

01:02:49 To lick their paws or even bark.

01:02:51 During your little interaction,

01:02:53 always respect the dog

01:02:55 and don't forget he has his limits too.

01:02:57 You go home and your dog,

01:02:59 Ricky, waits for you at your door.

01:03:01 Excited as ever,

01:03:03 he licks your face and jumps around you.

01:03:05 His best friend is at home.

01:03:07 To make your dog love you even more,

01:03:09 go to his level from time to time

01:03:11 and lie on the floor with your best friend.

01:03:13 When you do that,

01:03:15 give him lots of kisses and affection.

01:03:17 They love that and won't miss

01:03:19 giving it to you a hundredfold.

01:03:21 Well, you might have a little bit of a sniff on your face,

01:03:23 but it's for a good cause.

01:03:25 Look how happy he is to see you!

01:03:27 It's important to keep him happy

01:03:31 and one thing you can do is

01:03:33 take a tennis ball and play with him.

01:03:35 It's not necessary to have a tennis ball.

01:03:37 A plastic bottle of water

01:03:39 will probably do just as well.

01:03:41 Let's say you're walking in the woods

01:03:43 with your four-legged companion

01:03:45 and he brings you a huge stick.

01:03:47 He wags his tail and you know he's proud of his find.

01:03:49 If he tries to give you the stick,

01:03:51 chances are he'll want to play with it.

01:03:53 So, grab the stick and throw it far away.

01:03:55 Your dog will come back with it

01:03:57 faster than you think.

01:03:59 But wait, he has two sticks now!

01:04:01 It's certainly more fun!

01:04:03 At the bottom of the woods,

01:04:05 there's a little lake.

01:04:07 Some dogs love water.

01:04:09 If yours is one of them,

01:04:11 it's very likely that at the beach

01:04:13 or on the edge of a lake,

01:04:15 he spends more time in the water

01:04:17 than sitting next to you.

01:04:19 But before taking him there,

01:04:21 if he can't swim,

01:04:23 there's a way to make the most of the water.

01:04:25 It's a rescue vest for dogs.

01:04:27 Just make sure you tie it up

01:04:29 before you both dive.

01:04:31 Remember the time

01:04:33 when you spent all afternoon

01:04:35 playing hide and seek with your friends?

01:04:37 Well, guess what?

01:04:39 You can do it with your dog too!

01:04:41 Dogs' sense of smell is impressive

01:04:43 and they love to prove it.

01:04:45 You've probably noticed

01:04:47 how much time they spend walking around.

01:04:49 They love to look at the scenery

01:04:51 and to sniff things.

01:04:53 Choose a good hideout in your house

01:04:55 and call your dog.

01:04:57 He'll come and get you.

01:04:59 It's likely that he'll be suspicious at first,

01:05:01 but once he's used to the game,

01:05:03 you'll both have a good time.

01:05:05 It's important to make sure

01:05:07 your dog is sociable.

01:05:09 Make game dates whenever you can,

01:05:11 especially when he's still a puppy

01:05:13 so he learns that other dogs are sociable.

01:05:15 Spending time with your friends

01:05:17 is a great thing for your dog.

01:05:19 He'll be very excited

01:05:21 if he meets someone new

01:05:23 and if he has all afternoon

01:05:25 to get to know them.

01:05:27 You can even organize a dog party

01:05:29 if you want.

01:05:31 They'll have lots of fun

01:05:33 and lots to share.

01:05:35 At the end of the day,

01:05:37 before going to bed,

01:05:39 you can both enjoy

01:05:41 a bit of quiet time together.

01:05:43 My dog loves my knees.

01:05:45 He doesn't seem to understand

01:05:47 what it means to pay his bills,

01:05:49 but I can't say no to his cute little muzzle.

01:05:51 So sometimes I put the work

01:05:53 aside for a few minutes

01:05:55 and I scratch his belly as he deserves.

01:05:57 There are a lot of other things

01:05:59 you can do,

01:06:01 like taking your dog for a walk.

01:06:03 No matter his age,

01:06:05 what matters is that he likes to learn.

01:06:07 If he doesn't know how to ride himself,

01:06:09 take a bag of treats and get to work.

01:06:11 He'll love it as much as you do

01:06:13 and it might even be something cool

01:06:15 to show your friends when they come.

01:06:17 Good dog, Ricky!

01:06:19 That's a good dog!

01:06:21 "Be careful and be safe"

01:06:23 is a saying that's always better

01:06:25 to keep in mind.

01:06:27 Here's a list of things to know.

01:06:29 If an electric line falls near you,

01:06:31 you should run away.

01:06:33 The electric current now passes

01:06:35 everywhere on the ground.

01:06:37 When it comes in contact with a leg,

01:06:39 it crosses the person's body

01:06:41 and hits the body with a powerful discharge.

01:06:43 If you get lost in the forest,

01:06:45 listen carefully to the sounds

01:06:47 around you.

01:06:49 Maybe you'll hear the sound

01:06:51 of a river running.

01:06:53 Head towards the sound

01:06:55 and then go downstream.

01:06:57 People often build houses

01:06:59 near water sources,

01:07:01 lakes or ponds.

01:07:03 Sooner or later, the river will lead you

01:07:05 to a place where people can help you.

01:07:07 Never eat snow.

01:07:09 If you get lost in an icy place

01:07:11 and you're thirsty,

01:07:13 the cold snow inside your body

01:07:15 will cause hypothermia.

01:07:17 You'll quickly lose your heat

01:07:19 and then freeze on your feet.

01:07:21 It's better to melt some snow

01:07:23 over a campfire and then drink it.

01:07:25 You see these green potatoes

01:07:27 in the supermarket.

01:07:29 Don't eat them,

01:07:31 because they're toxic.

01:07:33 Potatoes produce solanine,

01:07:35 a toxin that protects them from insects.

01:07:37 The production of this poison increases

01:07:39 under the hot rays of the sun.

01:07:41 Of course, to be intoxicated by solanine,

01:07:43 you have to eat a lot of green potatoes.

01:07:45 But even if it's just one potato,

01:07:47 it won't be good for your body.

01:07:49 So why eat it?

01:07:51 The pepper spray is perfect

01:07:53 for self-defense.

01:07:55 But if you're afraid to use one,

01:07:57 you can keep a powerful flashlight

01:07:59 in your bag.

01:08:01 Point its light towards the eyes of your attacker

01:08:03 to dazzle them.

01:08:05 This will hurt no one

01:08:07 and you'll avoid a lot of trouble

01:08:09 in case of contempt.

01:08:11 If you leave a pan with oil

01:08:13 on a stove,

01:08:15 the oil can catch fire.

01:08:17 In this situation,

01:08:19 extinguishing the flames with water

01:08:21 will be out of the question.

01:08:23 The water particles will descend

01:08:25 to the bottom of the pan, evaporate

01:08:27 and push the oil upwards,

01:08:29 which will lead to more flames.

01:08:31 The best way to extinguish

01:08:33 the flames is to remove the oxygen.

01:08:35 Cover the pan with a lid

01:08:37 and remove it from the burner.

01:08:39 Flames are not the most frightening

01:08:41 thing about fires.

01:08:43 Smoke is much more dangerous

01:08:45 because you can get poisoned very quickly

01:08:47 by inhaling carbon monoxide.

01:08:49 Therefore, always try to stay

01:08:51 as close as possible to the ground

01:08:53 and cover your mouth and mouth

01:08:55 with a damp cloth to filter the oxygen.

01:08:57 Always put a small mirror

01:08:59 or a whistle in your pocket

01:09:01 when you go camping.

01:09:03 These two objects will help you

01:09:05 find your group if you get lost.

01:09:07 The whistle will attract the attention

01:09:09 of others by the sound,

01:09:11 and the mirror will do so by reflecting

01:09:13 the sunlight.

01:09:15 When you swim in the sea near the shore,

01:09:17 there is a risk of getting caught

01:09:19 in a current of ripples.

01:09:21 This underwater current will lead you

01:09:23 further and further offshore.

01:09:25 Do not try to swim towards the beach

01:09:27 against the current.

01:09:29 Always swim in parallel to the

01:09:31 riverbed of such a ripple.

01:09:33 Once you escape this current,

01:09:35 you can safely return to the sand.

01:09:37 Imagine that your car is stuck

01:09:39 on a different route.

01:09:41 Do not panic.

01:09:43 First, get all the passengers out of the vehicle.

01:09:45 Then you can call 112

01:09:47 and report the incident.

01:09:49 There is a special number

01:09:51 at each level crossing.

01:09:53 Give this number to the police

01:09:55 and they will warn the train driver

01:09:57 about the specified action.

01:09:59 If you are caught in the middle of the crowd,

01:10:01 do not ask all the people

01:10:03 around you to help you.

01:10:05 Most likely,

01:10:07 no one will help you.

01:10:09 Not because people are mean,

01:10:11 but because each passing person

01:10:13 will think that someone else can help you.

01:10:15 But if you choose a person

01:10:17 and ask for help,

01:10:19 you will have a better chance of getting it.

01:10:21 Each car has a thermometer,

01:10:23 a device that indicates

01:10:25 the temperature of the outside air.

01:10:27 Sometimes manufacturers place these sensors

01:10:29 behind the front bumper, near the engine.

01:10:31 During driving,

01:10:33 the thermometer is heated by the engine

01:10:35 and indicates a higher temperature.

01:10:37 Even if it freezes outside,

01:10:39 the device can tell you that it is hot.

01:10:41 Therefore, do not trust

01:10:43 this thermometer if it is installed this way.

01:10:45 What happens if the road is frozen

01:10:47 and you drive while being

01:10:49 completely sure that the asphalt is dry?

01:10:51 Do you smell that?

01:10:53 The sound spreading suddenly in your house

01:10:55 can mean that an electric fire

01:10:57 has started in a certain room.

01:10:59 Your socket or adapter

01:11:01 is burning, emitting

01:11:03 this unpleasant smell.

01:11:05 Using ordinary baking soda

01:11:07 is a good way to put out a fire.

01:11:09 If you do not have an extinguisher or access to water,

01:11:11 sprinkle the fire with this powder.

01:11:13 In addition, this substance can

01:11:15 hide your smell from potential predators.

01:11:17 It is useful if you are lost

01:11:19 in the forest and you do not want

01:11:21 wolves or bears to smell you.

01:11:23 Use ordinary

01:11:25 charcoal and a plastic bottle

01:11:27 to filter dirty water.

01:11:29 Cut the bottom of the bottle

01:11:31 and slightly close the cap of its cap

01:11:33 so that the liquid spills

01:11:35 in a thin net.

01:11:37 Put the charcoal in it and add water.

01:11:39 Let it pass several times through the charcoal.

01:11:41 Then boil this water.

01:11:43 You can now

01:11:45 quench your thirst.

01:11:47 Always bring a chewing gum

01:11:49 with you when you walk in nature.

01:11:51 If you get lost,

01:11:53 the chewing gum will help you relieve stress.

01:11:55 You can also use this material

01:11:57 as a fortune collar.

01:11:59 Always keep your car keys

01:12:01 next to your bed.

01:12:03 If a thief breaks into your house,

01:12:05 you can use it to

01:12:07 alarm the car and scare this rascal.

01:12:09 But installing a good security system

01:12:11 in your house would be even better.

01:12:13 When you go skiing,

01:12:15 there is always a risk of being caught

01:12:17 in an avalanche.

01:12:19 If you find yourself under a thick layer of snow,

01:12:21 do not try to get out immediately.

01:12:23 Your thoughts are confused

01:12:25 and you must know where the top is

01:12:27 and where the bottom is.

01:12:29 Spit and see where your saliva flows.

01:12:31 Then start digging

01:12:33 in the opposite direction.

01:12:35 When your plane

01:12:37 makes an emergency landing on the water,

01:12:39 your instinct can push you

01:12:41 to put on your life jacket immediately.

01:12:43 But do not do this

01:12:45 before you are in the water.

01:12:47 If you put on your life jacket

01:12:49 and the water starts to fill the cabin,

01:12:51 it will be difficult for you to move.

01:12:53 First reach the emergency exit

01:12:55 and then put on your life jacket.

01:12:57 When you feel that someone is following your car,

01:12:59 make four right turns.

01:13:01 This way,

01:13:03 you will make a complete tour of the house.

01:13:05 And if the car is still following you after that,

01:13:07 go to the nearest police station.

01:13:09 When walking outside,

01:13:13 you can notice or feel

01:13:15 the hair on your head that starts to stand up.

01:13:17 Quickly look for shelter.

01:13:19 The lightning is about to strike you.

01:13:21 The assistance dogs

01:13:23 wear special jackets

01:13:25 that reflect their status.

01:13:27 If such a dog approaches you,

01:13:29 you might do well to follow it.

01:13:31 Maybe you will save someone's life.

01:13:33 If a person is in trouble

01:13:35 and there is no one nearby to help,

01:13:37 the dogs may worry about someone

01:13:39 to let them run.

01:13:41 When there is a fire,

01:13:43 flames spread more slowly

01:13:45 if the doors of the room are closed.

01:13:47 So when you go to bed,

01:13:49 close the door of the room.

01:13:51 It will hold the flames for a moment.

01:13:53 But do not forget that it is always preferable

01:13:55 to have a good fire alarm.

01:13:57 Tornadoes move quickly.

01:13:59 So if you notice a whirlwind

01:14:01 that seems to be happening on the spot,

01:14:03 you have to take your legs at your neck.

01:14:05 This means that the tornado is heading straight at you.

01:14:07 A smell of gas in the room

01:14:09 indicates a leak.

01:14:11 Therefore, do not turn on the light.

01:14:13 The smallest spark could reduce the house to ashes.

01:14:15 When you scratch a person,

01:14:19 his DNA remains under your nails.

01:14:21 This can be useful in case of attack,

01:14:23 especially when your attacker has fled

01:14:25 and you want to file a complaint

01:14:27 with the police.

01:14:29 If you have disturbed a nest of frogs

01:14:31 or a roach,

01:14:33 run in any direction as fast as possible.

01:14:35 Sooner or later,

01:14:37 the frogs will stop chasing you.

01:14:39 But if you jump into the water,

01:14:41 they will just wait for you to get out.

01:14:43 You park your car in a dark alley.

01:14:45 You lock it with a key

01:14:47 and you leave it just a few minutes

01:14:49 to go get a coffee.

01:14:51 When you come back,

01:14:53 your beloved vehicle is no longer there.

01:14:55 A rattle alarm.

01:14:57 Oh wait, it was just the alarm.

01:14:59 Phew!

01:15:01 Fortunately, it was all just a dream

01:15:03 and you can still make sure

01:15:05 that your car is safe.

01:15:07 First of all,

01:15:09 you can install a steering wheel anti-theft device

01:15:11 in your car.

01:15:13 It can be a long metal rod

01:15:15 that goes over the steering wheel

01:15:17 or a chain lock

01:15:19 that is connected to the safety belt loop.

01:15:21 These two options are effective

01:15:23 to slow down the thieves

01:15:25 who could get into your vehicle.

01:15:27 But they do not protect it 100%

01:15:29 against attacks.

01:15:31 The robbers can simply

01:15:33 use devices that detect signals

01:15:35 and help them steal cars without a key.

01:15:37 For example,

01:15:39 if the car is parked in the garage

01:15:41 of a private house

01:15:43 or under the windows of a several-story building,

01:15:45 the keys remain accessible

01:15:47 thanks to a radio.

01:15:49 The robbers can easily

01:15:51 intercept the signal

01:15:53 and the car owner

01:15:55 will never notice anything.

01:15:57 To protect your keys from attacks by relay

01:15:59 when they are stored at home,

01:16:01 you can use something metallic.

01:16:03 Simply wrap the keys in an aluminum sheet

01:16:05 to block the radio signals

01:16:07 or keep them in a secure metal box.

01:16:09 Park in well-lit places

01:16:11 and equipped with security cameras.

01:16:13 Entrances to buildings

01:16:15 and parking lots are always the best option.

01:16:17 An isolated garage, however,

01:16:19 is not always a good idea

01:16:21 because it can be risky

01:16:23 from a security point of view for you.

01:16:25 If you park in one of these places,

01:16:27 stay near the guard post

01:16:29 so that the security cameras can see you.

01:16:31 Always keep the wheels turned

01:16:33 to the side of the sidewalk or wherever.

01:16:35 This will make the task much more difficult

01:16:37 for the robber who would try to steal the car

01:16:39 with a car wash.

01:16:41 To steal your car,

01:16:43 a criminal will have to perform

01:16:45 several additional maneuvers.

01:16:47 This requires time and effort

01:16:49 and should therefore demotivate the offenders.

01:16:51 In many cases,

01:16:53 it is not your car that the criminals are looking for to steal.

01:16:55 It is rather the new portable computer

01:16:57 that you left on the front seat

01:16:59 or your handbag that seems to be full of valuables.

01:17:01 It is difficult to resist

01:17:03 this kind of temptation

01:17:05 and it often leads to a robbery.

01:17:07 So take an additional moment

01:17:09 to hide your things in the trunk

01:17:11 and your vehicle will be less attractive to the criminals.

01:17:13 Never leave your car open

01:17:15 without supervision,

01:17:17 even if it is to buy something for a second.

01:17:19 If you have to get out,

01:17:21 always start by stopping the engine,

01:17:23 closing the windows and locking the doors.

01:17:25 Always.

01:17:27 Keeping the grey card in the car

01:17:29 is an excellent way to facilitate the work of the robbers.

01:17:31 They can present it to the police

01:17:33 if they are arrested.

01:17:35 The data of your insurance

01:17:37 and the vehicle identification number

01:17:39 can then help them get new keys

01:17:41 to unlock the car without any problem.

01:17:43 If you are not the only person

01:17:45 to use your car,

01:17:47 look for a secret place to hide the papers

01:17:49 and only tell the people you trust.

01:17:51 You can also take a picture

01:17:53 of the grey card

01:17:55 and the information about the insurance

01:17:57 and store it on your smartphone.

01:17:59 Another option is to make copies

01:18:01 of these important documents

01:18:03 and keep them with you.

01:18:05 You can also engrave on your windshield,

01:18:07 your windows and your mirrors

01:18:09 the vehicle identification number,

01:18:11 VIN.

01:18:13 This service is not expensive,

01:18:15 but it will demotivate the robbers.

01:18:17 Indeed, they will have to spend money

01:18:19 to change the green mark

01:18:21 before they attack your vehicle.

01:18:23 You can also play spies

01:18:25 and leave marks on different parts

01:18:27 of the car with an invisible pen

01:18:29 or cover it with micro dots

01:18:31 with its identification coordinates.

01:18:33 This will not stop the robbers,

01:18:35 but it will be much easier

01:18:37 to find the car if it is stolen.

01:18:39 If you know you will have to

01:18:41 leave your car in a new place

01:18:43 and you think it is not a safe place,

01:18:45 hide an old phone

01:18:47 or a tablet.

01:18:49 This will allow you to locate it.

01:18:51 The "Find my phone" function

01:18:53 will allow you to locate the phone

01:18:55 and the car in a few seconds.

01:18:57 You can either get an economic data plan

01:18:59 for real-time tracking

01:19:01 or rely on GPS.

01:19:03 It should work even without a SIM card.

01:19:05 Protect your side mirrors

01:19:07 from thieves with special covers.

01:19:09 There are models with locks

01:19:11 made of non-cut materials.

01:19:13 The cover will also protect

01:19:15 the side mirrors from scratches

01:19:17 and scratches and will extend

01:19:19 their lifespan.

01:19:21 In addition, you can show creativity

01:19:23 and choose covers with the logo

01:19:25 of your favorite team or another

01:19:27 important element for yourself.

01:19:29 It's pretty cool to customize your vehicle

01:19:31 with a small budget, isn't it?

01:19:33 Car thieves use different strategies

01:19:35 to divert our attention.

01:19:37 A piece of paper stuck on the rear window,

01:19:39 a plastic bottle on the steering wheel

01:19:41 or a T-shirt on the trunk of the car.

01:19:43 These little things, among other things,

01:19:45 give you the chance to get the driver

01:19:47 out of his car.

01:19:49 Thieves can also pretend to be nice

01:19:51 and helpful and tell you to park

01:19:53 because there is something under your car.

01:19:55 The idea is, again, to get you out

01:19:57 of your car and let them steal it

01:19:59 quietly.

01:20:01 So instead of getting out,

01:20:03 lock the windows and doors

01:20:05 and never get out if there is someone

01:20:07 suspicious in the parking lot.

01:20:09 Criminals are not the only ones

01:20:11 who can harm a vehicle.

01:20:13 Winter weather conditions

01:20:15 can also be a problem.

01:20:17 If you don't want to find your ice-cream

01:20:19 stuck to the windshield and scratch it

01:20:21 every morning, let them pick it up

01:20:23 when you're not driving.

01:20:25 You've probably heard that it's a bad idea

01:20:27 because it damages the arm spring

01:20:29 and can make someone steal your ice-cream.

01:20:31 Don't worry,

01:20:33 springs don't lose their elasticity

01:20:35 and there aren't really many people

01:20:37 who have them after your ice-cream sweep.

01:20:39 If you forget to pick up the ice-cream

01:20:41 and find them stuck to your windshield,

01:20:43 try to get the air conditioning working.

01:20:45 The cold air will

01:20:47 make the windows crack like hot air.

01:20:49 It works by dehumidifying the air.

01:20:51 If the lock is frozen

01:20:53 and you can't get into your own car,

01:20:55 use disinfectant gel for your hands.

01:20:57 This substance can melt the ice

01:20:59 without any problem.

01:21:01 To prevent the windshield from freezing,

01:21:03 mix three volumes of vinegar

01:21:05 and one volume of water

01:21:07 and spray this solution

01:21:09 on the windows during the night.

01:21:11 This should save you time

01:21:13 the next morning.

01:21:15 In cold weather,

01:21:17 the gas tank should always be

01:21:19 more than half full.

01:21:21 The moist air will make it easier

01:21:23 to fill any empty space

01:21:25 above the fuel in your tank.

01:21:27 And this air will condense

01:21:29 into water with the cold.

01:21:31 The water being denser than the gas,

01:21:33 it settles at the bottom of the tank.

01:21:35 When it accumulates in sufficient quantities,

01:21:37 it passes through the fuel line

01:21:39 to the engine,

01:21:41 which is not a good thing.

01:21:43 To protect your beloved car from rust,

01:21:45 wash it regularly.

01:21:47 A simple thing like this

01:21:49 can make all the difference.

01:21:51 Because dirt damages

01:21:53 the transparent protective film

01:21:55 of the paint and allows the rust

01:21:57 to infiltrate more easily.

01:21:59 Don't forget to wash

01:22:01 the car's chassis and wheel arches.

01:22:03 Make sure the paint

01:22:05 doesn't crack or peel off.

01:22:07 This layer must protect

01:22:09 the vehicle from the cold.

01:22:11 During the cold season,

01:22:13 the road's salt can also

01:22:15 cause rust stains.

01:22:17 To avoid this,

01:22:19 you should at least wash the car

01:22:21 every week, even in winter.

01:22:23 And above all, don't forget

01:22:25 to polish it at least twice a year.

01:22:27 It's another good way to preserve

01:22:29 the new look of the paint

01:22:31 and protect it from UV rays.

01:22:33 One last important thing.

01:22:35 Always keep your car's interior clean.

01:22:37 If you spill something inside,

01:22:39 you must immediately

01:22:41 sponge the liquid.

01:22:43 It shouldn't infiltrate further

01:22:45 and touch the metal parts

01:22:47 because that's how rust is formed.

01:22:49 A simple sponge and baking soda

01:22:53 can remove small grease stains,

01:22:55 fingerprints and marks

01:22:57 on the walls or on any other

01:22:59 painted surface, such as furniture

01:23:01 or wooden door.

01:23:03 Just sprinkle a little baking soda

01:23:05 on a dry sponge and rub the

01:23:07 mucous membrane in a circular motion.

01:23:09 Then use a clean and dry cloth

01:23:11 to wipe the baking soda

01:23:13 to remove any residual grease.

01:23:15 If you're worried that this technique

01:23:17 won't damage your paint,

01:23:19 try a little bit of baking soda

01:23:21 and see how the surface reacts.

01:23:23 If you want to extract as much

01:23:25 juice as possible from your lemon,

01:23:27 put it in the microwave for 15 seconds.

01:23:29 Then roll it on a hard surface.

01:23:31 Now all you have to do

01:23:33 is use your manual grommet.

01:23:35 When you break glass or pottery

01:23:37 on the floor,

01:23:39 it can be difficult to tell

01:23:41 and pick up all these tiny fragments,

01:23:43 especially if the glass is transparent.

01:23:45 Guess what can help you?

01:23:47 A slice of bread!

01:23:49 After removing all the big pieces,

01:23:51 carefully pass a thick slice of bread

01:23:53 on the floor to pick up these small splinters.

01:23:55 It should stay stuck in the bread,

01:23:57 but be careful to do it very carefully

01:23:59 or wear protective gloves.

01:24:01 And don't make a sandwich right after!

01:24:03 I'm just saying, I'm not saying anything.

01:24:05 If you're a big fan of garlic,

01:24:07 here's a tip for you.

01:24:09 Cut a bulb of garlic in half

01:24:11 and rub it in an empty bowl

01:24:13 to give it a nice flavor.

01:24:15 You can then put your pasta,

01:24:17 risotto or salad in it

01:24:19 and enjoy a good meal.

01:24:21 Pringles tubes are made of a mixture

01:24:23 of paper, plastic and metal,

01:24:25 which is a good way to organize

01:24:27 your condiments.

01:24:29 You can paint the tubes a single color

01:24:31 to match the minimalist style of your kitchen

01:24:33 and then stick labels on the sides.

01:24:35 Have you ever had trouble putting on a needle?

01:24:37 Here's a good solution.

01:24:39 Place your toothbrush on the table

01:24:41 and pass your thread through these hairs.

01:24:43 Then gently push the needle down.

01:24:45 The stiff hairs will help you

01:24:47 pass the thread through the cat

01:24:49 of the needle effortlessly.

01:24:51 Once you've reached your goal,

01:24:53 you just have to finish the job

01:24:55 by pulling with your fingers.

01:24:57 If the tea has left stains

01:24:59 that don't go away when you wash it

01:25:01 on your favorite cup,

01:25:03 try applying a little toothpaste

01:25:05 on your sponge.

01:25:07 This also applies when you have

01:25:09 to make your dirty cutlery shine.

01:25:11 It's better to use a slightly abrasive sponge.

01:25:13 They are very useful to eliminate

01:25:15 the dark traces on the dish.

01:25:17 Let's say you've recently received

01:25:19 a very nice bouquet,

01:25:21 you can give it a wink.

01:25:23 You can extend their life very easily

01:25:25 and almost for free.

01:25:27 First, fill a vase with fresh water

01:25:29 and add a few teaspoons of sugar.

01:25:31 This will help feed your flowers.

01:25:33 Before putting them back in the vase,

01:25:35 cut about 1 cm from the stem.

01:25:37 Make sure to cut it in half like this.

01:25:39 This trick will increase

01:25:41 the surface of the water absorption.

01:25:43 Repeat this operation with all the stems,

01:25:45 especially those that are rigid.

01:25:47 Put the bouquet back in the vase.

01:25:49 The flowers should be ready

01:25:51 in the next 12 hours.

01:25:53 If you have cold feet,

01:25:55 put them in a vase.

01:25:57 No, wait, I'm getting my brushes dirty.

01:25:59 Use a hair dryer to warm up

01:26:01 your slippers before using them.

01:26:03 This trick also applies to

01:26:05 your winter outdoor shoes.

01:26:07 Speaking of feet,

01:26:09 there is a good way to get rid

01:26:11 of unpleasant smells.

01:26:13 Apply about 10 drops of your favorite essential oil

01:26:15 on two cotton balls.

01:26:17 Then place the balls in your shoes

01:26:19 and let them rest overnight.

01:26:21 In the morning, remove them

01:26:23 and enjoy this exotic fragrance.

01:26:25 You can also mix several of your favorite perfumes

01:26:27 to personalize the smell of your shoes even more.

01:26:29 If your evacuation pipe

01:26:31 is a bit dirty and smelly,

01:26:33 there is a great trick

01:26:35 to solve this problem.

01:26:37 Put 2 tablespoons of baking soda

01:26:39 and pour a little vinegar.

01:26:41 All you have to do is relax

01:26:43 and enjoy the show.

01:26:45 If you have a cold,

01:26:47 you can use a hair dryer

01:26:49 to cool down your shoes.

01:26:51 If you have a cold,

01:26:53 you can use a hair dryer

01:26:55 to cool down your shoes.

01:26:57 If you have a cold,

01:26:59 you can use a hair dryer

01:27:01 to cool down your shoes.

01:27:03 If you have a cold,

01:27:05 you can use a hair dryer

01:27:07 to cool down your shoes.

01:27:09 If you have a cold,

01:27:11 you can use a hair dryer

01:27:13 to cool down your shoes.

01:27:15 If you have a small wardrobe

01:27:17 with little space to hang new clothes,

01:27:19 remove some metal pins

01:27:21 from the top of your old cans.

01:27:23 They can be perfect suspension loops

01:27:25 to fix a second belt.

01:27:27 Just place the ring on the hook

01:27:29 and you can double

01:27:31 or triple the storage space

01:27:33 on a single strap.

01:27:35 If you urgently need to make a candle,

01:27:37 you can use an element

01:27:39 that is frequently found

01:27:41 in a grocery store.

01:27:43 Cut a piece of butter,

01:27:45 cool it down,

01:27:47 and place it in a dish

01:27:49 that can withstand the heat.

01:27:51 Make a hole in the center

01:27:53 with a toothpick

01:27:55 or a wooden stick.

01:27:57 Now we need a wick.

01:27:59 You can use a string

01:28:01 or an ordinary cotton thread.

01:28:03 Cut the corresponding length

01:28:05 and pass it through the hole

01:28:07 so that it goes

01:28:09 through the hole.

01:28:11 Or let's say you work in a store

01:28:13 and you have to count a liquid silver bill.

01:28:15 The wicks will help you

01:28:17 quickly pass your money

01:28:19 through the smaller bill

01:28:21 that you can then put in your pocket

01:28:23 or in your backpack.

01:28:25 Wait, no, that's broken.

01:28:27 Wow, this candle closure is tough!

01:28:29 Why doesn't it slide like all the others?

01:28:31 But don't rush to throw your coat.

01:28:33 So take a soap and gently rub it

01:28:35 from top to bottom

01:28:37 and repeat the operation on both sides.

01:28:39 Can you see the difference?

01:28:41 Cut a leg of an old glue

01:28:43 and put two long cardboard tubes in it.

01:28:45 Then put it under the door

01:28:47 of your room with a tube on each side.

01:28:49 This way you'll be protected

01:28:51 from the air currents

01:28:53 because the glue will block the gap

01:28:55 under the door.

01:28:57 You can also use this trick

01:28:59 when you need to completely hide a room.

01:29:01 Be careful to use thick black glue.

01:29:03 Let's say you're going to a conference

01:29:05 in another city and your schedule

01:29:07 is very busy.

01:29:09 You can prepare your clothes for each day

01:29:11 in advance and put them in different compartments

01:29:13 of your foldable storage organizer.

01:29:15 You can then put it in your suitcase,

01:29:17 close it, and you're ready to go.

01:29:19 When you arrive at the hotel,

01:29:21 you just need to carefully take out

01:29:23 this organizer and hang it

01:29:25 in the closet in two or three steps.

01:29:27 But don't forget to take your shoes

01:29:29 with you.

01:29:31 Is there a way to stick a nail

01:29:33 in a wall without hitting your fingers?

01:29:35 The answer is yes.

01:29:37 Take a comb and stick the nail

01:29:39 between your teeth.

01:29:41 This way your delicate fingers

01:29:43 will stay apart and won't be hurt.

01:29:45 Once you've stuck the nail in,

01:29:47 you can gently remove the comb

01:29:49 and finish the job.

01:29:51 If you urgently need a metal sponge

01:29:53 to wash your pan or your pan

01:29:55 without your faucet, use a piece of aluminum foil.

01:29:57 Crush it to make a ball.

01:29:59 Apply a little dish soap

01:30:01 and your new sponge is ready.

01:30:03 Now start rubbing

01:30:05 and get ready to be surprised.

01:30:07 It works really well, doesn't it?

01:30:09 By the way, the aluminum foil doesn't need to be new.

01:30:11 You can reuse a piece

01:30:13 that you've already used to cook.

01:30:15 The last tip is for perfectionists.

01:30:17 If your shower head has

01:30:19 a accumulation of limestone deposits,

01:30:21 the water won't flow directly down.

01:30:23 To fix this, fill a plastic bag

01:30:25 with white vinegar.

01:30:27 Then place the shower head in the bag,

01:30:29 tie it with an elastic band

01:30:31 and leave it to rest overnight.

01:30:33 In the morning, you can brush your hair

01:30:35 with an old toothbrush or even a cloth brush.

01:30:37 This should eliminate

01:30:39 the last residue of tartar.

01:30:41 This tip also applies

01:30:43 to your shower head.

01:30:45 Here's how to protect

01:30:47 your credit card from potential scams.

01:30:49 Take a marker

01:30:51 and mask the last four digits.

01:30:53 You can also use a sticker

01:30:55 that's easy to remove and place on the security code.

01:30:57 Have you ever had a guest

01:30:59 who unfortunately

01:31:01 didn't use their underglass?

01:31:03 Take a dry hair and hold it

01:31:05 a few centimeters from the stain.

01:31:07 Plug it in over medium heat

01:31:09 for a few minutes to evaporate the residue.

01:31:11 If a discolored residue

01:31:13 remains, mix the same amount

01:31:15 of vinegar and olive oil

01:31:17 in a bowl, apply it to the marked area

01:31:19 and rub until the stain

01:31:21 disappears, then wipe.

01:31:23 Don't waste time

01:31:25 and carefully remove the burn marks

01:31:27 on the bottom of a saucepan.

01:31:29 Instead, fill it with water

01:31:31 and add three tablespoons of salt.

01:31:33 Let it sit overnight

01:31:35 so the salt dissolves the kitchen residue

01:31:37 and in the morning, empty the water

01:31:39 from the saucepan.

01:31:41 This way, it will be much easier

01:31:43 to remove all this grease.

01:31:45 Imagine the scene.

01:31:47 You're on vacation and your shirt is all wrinkled

01:31:49 in your suitcase. You need it tonight,

01:31:51 but the hotel doesn't have iron to iron.

01:31:53 Don't panic. Hang the shirt

01:31:55 in the bathroom and while you're

01:31:57 taking a hot shower,

01:31:59 the heat and humidity will

01:32:01 cool your shirt.

01:32:03 OK, it won't be perfect, but it will

01:32:05 be much better, and all without

01:32:07 any effort.

01:32:09 The football game will start

01:32:11 from one moment to the next and it turns out

01:32:13 that you don't have a battery for your remote.

01:32:15 You can use a smaller battery

01:32:17 instead, which will easily

01:32:19 fit inside.

01:32:21 Now, take some aluminum foil and

01:32:23 cool it. Place the aluminum ball

01:32:25 in the space at the negative

01:32:27 or flat end of the battery.

01:32:29 There you go. You can turn on

01:32:31 the TV now.

01:32:33 When your tongs break

01:32:35 and the piece of plastic escapes

01:32:37 from its hole, it's probably a sign

01:32:39 that you need a new pair.

01:32:41 But there is a way to extend

01:32:43 their lifespan. Put the piece back

01:32:45 in its hole and then attach

01:32:47 these kind of pliers that you find

01:32:49 in any grocery store.

01:32:51 The pliers will provide enough support

01:32:53 for the sandal to stay in place.

01:32:55 You received a package

01:32:57 and the invoice is taped on it.

01:32:59 You managed to detach it from the box,

01:33:01 but then how do you take off the tape

01:33:03 without tearing the paper?

01:33:05 Grab the two ends of the adhesive tape.

01:33:07 If you pull slowly,

01:33:09 the tape will stretch and

01:33:11 separate from the paper without tearing it.

01:33:13 Fresh bags are perfect

01:33:15 to keep things dry,

01:33:17 but it would be great if they were bigger,

01:33:19 wouldn't it?

01:33:21 Take two and turn one of them over.

01:33:23 They can now stick to each other

01:33:25 and form a large bag,

01:33:27 large enough to protect a keyboard, for example.

01:33:29 No need to carry your keys

01:33:31 in your hand during your next jog.

01:33:33 But it's rather in your pocket.

01:33:35 Take an elastic and tie it

01:33:37 around the pocket inside.

01:33:39 This way your keys won't fall.

01:33:41 You broke your key

01:33:43 in the door. It's stuck in there.

01:33:45 Great!

01:33:47 Calling a locksmith

01:33:49 could cost you over 100 euros.

01:33:51 For a cheaper and faster solution,

01:33:53 try using a hot glue stick.

01:33:55 Heat the end of the stick

01:33:57 with a lighter.

01:33:59 Once it's hot enough to melt,

01:34:01 insert the glue into the lock hole.

01:34:03 The melted glue will enter

01:34:05 the available space,

01:34:07 covering part of the key.

01:34:09 Once cooled, it will combine

01:34:11 and firmly attach to the end of the key

01:34:13 so you can easily remove it.

01:34:15 If you need to siphon liquid

01:34:19 through a pipe and you want to

01:34:21 avoid putting it in your mouth,

01:34:23 dip one end into the liquid

01:34:25 and hold the other end up

01:34:27 with your thumb.

01:34:29 Now shake from top to bottom.

01:34:31 This movement will push the liquid

01:34:33 up a little more each time.

01:34:35 Once it's reached the top,

01:34:37 lower the pipe

01:34:39 and let gravity do the rest.

01:34:41 You forgot your car keys

01:34:43 in your locked car.

01:34:45 It's an old model with a mechanical window.

01:34:47 You could take a belt

01:34:49 and try to unlock the lock,

01:34:51 but it's long and complicated.

01:34:53 Or you can use an adhesive tape.

01:34:55 Make about 20 strips

01:34:57 60 cm long,

01:34:59 stick them on the window,

01:35:01 leaving enough space

01:35:03 for the tape to stick to the bottom.

01:35:05 Then, with a friend,

01:35:07 take the ends of the adhesive tape

01:35:09 and pull the tape down.

01:35:11 The force applied will allow

01:35:13 the window to lower enough

01:35:15 for you to unlock the door.

01:35:17 When you put

01:35:19 large screws in hard wood,

01:35:21 your old drill may not be

01:35:23 strong enough,

01:35:25 so you can leave them half-dug

01:35:27 before it's too late.

01:35:29 Take a block of wax and

01:35:31 rub the edges of your screws with it.

01:35:33 The wax acts like a lubricant,

01:35:35 it melts when it's hot

01:35:37 and it's a great lubricant.

01:35:39 You're out camping,

01:35:41 but you don't have anything to wear

01:35:43 to light the barbecue.

01:35:45 Take a small plastic bag,

01:35:47 fill it with water

01:35:49 and close it carefully

01:35:51 to form a round ball.

01:35:53 Hold it above where you want

01:35:55 to capture the sun's light.

01:35:57 The water bag will work like a magnifying glass

01:35:59 lighting the barbecue.

01:36:01 Of course, it has to be a sunny day.

01:36:03 You also forgot your lighter

01:36:05 and your table.

01:36:07 Heat the top of the bottle with a lighter.

01:36:09 The heat will slightly dilate the glass,

01:36:11 which will eject the cap from the top.

01:36:13 You've put superglue on your fingers again?

01:36:17 Take some salt and pour it

01:36:19 on your glued fingers.

01:36:21 Put your fingers under the water

01:36:23 and rub gently.

01:36:25 The mixture will dissolve the glue

01:36:27 and free you in no time.

01:36:29 When you hang a painting,

01:36:31 it may be impossible to find

01:36:33 the right place to hang it.

01:36:35 Put a fork upside down

01:36:37 and insert it so that the nail

01:36:39 can slide between the central teeth

01:36:41 of the fork.

01:36:43 The fork has a long handle

01:36:45 separated from the wall,

01:36:47 which makes it easier

01:36:49 to slide the string of the painting

01:36:51 onto the nail.

01:36:53 Once the painting is perfectly balanced,

01:36:55 just remove the fork.

01:36:57 You have to put a cake in a box,

01:36:59 but if you want to take it out later,

01:37:01 you can do it directly on the lid.

01:37:03 This one is now used as a base

01:37:05 for the container, which will greatly

01:37:07 simplify the access to the cake,

01:37:09 piece by piece.

01:37:11 You can quickly empty the water

01:37:13 from the large containers and bottles

01:37:15 by forming a whirl.

01:37:17 By shaking it in a circle,

01:37:19 you will create a kind of vortex

01:37:21 that will allow the air to infuse

01:37:23 into the container as the water flows.

01:37:25 It's much faster than the usual method.

01:37:27 There is an easier and less dirty way

01:37:29 to remove the shells from a hard-boiled egg.

01:37:31 Once the egg is cooked,

01:37:33 break the shell at both ends by tapping it.

01:37:35 On one side,

01:37:37 remove the shell by scratching it.

01:37:39 Then blow directly with your mouth

01:37:41 on the open end.

01:37:43 The force of the air will push the egg

01:37:45 and spread the shell,

01:37:47 which will allow it to come out without damage.

01:37:49 If the hinges of your laptop

01:37:51 break,

01:37:53 you know that their repair

01:37:55 can cost several hundred euros.

01:37:57 A much cheaper way

01:37:59 is to buy a photo frame

01:38:01 and stick it to the back of the screen.

01:38:03 You dropped a small jewel

01:38:05 on the floor and you think

01:38:07 you'll never find it again.

01:38:09 Take a sock and place it

01:38:11 on the end of the hose of your vacuum cleaner.

01:38:13 Suck the area well

01:38:15 and check the hose regularly.

01:38:17 You will end up finding your jewel

01:38:19 at the end of this one.

01:38:21 You drilled a hole in the wall,

01:38:23 but the hole is now too big.

01:38:25 Take a screw and find a slightly shorter

01:38:27 and thinner object.

01:38:29 If you don't have a pin,

01:38:31 small pieces of plastic,

01:38:33 small wires, trombones or even toothpicks

01:38:35 will fit perfectly.

01:38:37 Slide this object inside the hole.

01:38:39 It will fill the space enough

01:38:41 for the screw to be reintroduced

01:38:43 safely.

01:38:45 When you take out the garbage,

01:38:47 you may end up with garbage on you.

01:38:49 A good way to avoid this

01:38:51 is to place old paper

01:38:53 in a plastic bag.

01:38:55 This will not only absorb

01:38:57 all the liquids from food

01:38:59 and other elements,

01:39:01 but also prevent the formation

01:39:03 of bad odors in the trash.

01:39:05 Nobody likes mosquitoes

01:39:07 and insecticides are expensive.

01:39:09 A good alternative is to take

01:39:11 a plastic bottle and cut

01:39:13 the top, where it takes

01:39:15 a funnel shape.

01:39:17 After removing it,

01:39:19 turn it over and put it

01:39:21 in a bucket of hot water

01:39:23 with 2 tablespoons of sugar.

01:39:25 The insects will be attracted

01:39:27 by the preparation inside

01:39:29 and will be trapped inside.

01:39:31 All you have to do is sit down

01:39:33 and relax without fear of being stung.

01:39:35 Let's go!

01:39:37 Accompanied by your best friends,

01:39:39 you rush on the highway.

01:39:41 Suddenly, one of them turns off the air conditioning

01:39:43 and lowers the windows.

01:39:45 No!

01:39:47 He wanted to help you reduce your fuel costs

01:39:49 Turning off the air conditioning

01:39:51 to let in the wind is a good thing

01:39:53 when you are stuck in traffic jams.

01:39:55 But when you drive on the highway,

01:39:57 it creates a resistance that you would be fine with.

01:39:59 Your car will need

01:40:01 more energy

01:40:03 and you therefore consume more fuel.

01:40:05 However,

01:40:07 when you drive through traffic jams,

01:40:09 turning off the air conditioning

01:40:11 is not a bad idea.

01:40:13 Yes, I know, it's hot

01:40:15 and it's not nice,

01:40:17 but you can't use money, can you?

01:40:19 Let's see if you can

01:40:21 be sensible.

01:40:23 You have the choice between two routes.

01:40:25 One seems short

01:40:27 and the other long on your map.

01:40:29 Which one will you choose?

01:40:31 The first one, of course,

01:40:33 but in fact,

01:40:35 the shortest route is not always the most

01:40:37 fair in terms of fuel consumption.

01:40:39 You have to choose the one with

01:40:41 the least stop signs, red lights and traffic jams.

01:40:43 You will then not have to accelerate

01:40:45 every two minutes and you will save money.

01:40:47 So, prepare your route wisely.

01:40:49 Some apps will give you

01:40:51 information about traffic in real time,

01:40:53 others will tell you where the traffic lights are.

01:40:55 You also have a sandbag,

01:40:59 your old inflatable bed,

01:41:01 a pair of shoes and five water bottles in your trunk.

01:41:03 It's better to get rid of all that

01:41:07 if you want to save money.

01:41:09 By eliminating 45 kilos of useless load,

01:41:11 you reduce your fuel consumption

01:41:13 by about 1% for 4 liters

01:41:15 depending on the weight of your vehicle.

01:41:17 The heavier you are, the more fuel you need.

01:41:19 The calculation is simple.

01:41:21 Brake and accelerate less.

01:41:23 Driving at a constant speed

01:41:25 of over 80 km/h

01:41:27 allows you to save fuel.

01:41:29 Every time you brake

01:41:31 or accelerate at red light,

01:41:33 you make your engine work

01:41:35 and it is fed with fuel.

01:41:37 In addition,

01:41:39 aggressive driving is generally not well seen.

01:41:41 Accelerate slowly

01:41:43 and brake gently until the stop.

01:41:45 Do not go from 0 to 100 km/h at once

01:41:49 and do not brake abruptly.

01:41:51 Your speed regulator

01:41:53 will help you drive quietly

01:41:55 on a highway or another flat terrain.

01:41:57 As soon as you approach a hill

01:41:59 or a mountain,

01:42:01 this same speed regulator

01:42:03 makes you consume too much fuel for no reason.

01:42:05 So disable it and slow down as you go up.

01:42:07 Then accelerate again slowly

01:42:09 when you go down.

01:42:11 Your engine will thank you.

01:42:13 Park your vehicle

01:42:15 on some streets of your destination.

01:42:17 The next time you go crazy

01:42:19 driving around your house

01:42:21 looking for a parking space,

01:42:23 you will understand better why.

01:42:25 If we take into account the frustration,

01:42:27 the time spent looking for it

01:42:29 and, of course, the costs of fuel,

01:42:31 we realize that we can park

01:42:33 a few miles from shops, offices

01:42:35 or restaurants, depending on the occasion.

01:42:37 Do not wait until the last minute

01:42:39 to fill up.

01:42:41 Fill it up when your tank is empty

01:42:43 or when it is simply convenient for you.

01:42:45 This way, you will not have to rush

01:42:47 to the nearest gas station

01:42:49 in fear of suddenly crashing.

01:42:51 And you will have time

01:42:53 to do some research.

01:42:55 There are apps that tell you

01:42:57 the best prices for gas in the area

01:42:59 where you are.

01:43:01 Sometimes it will be a bit far

01:43:03 away from your usual routes,

01:43:05 but you will find it worth it.

01:43:07 Once you have chosen the right situation,

01:43:09 do not hesitate to ask for something.

01:43:11 Sign up for their loyalty program,

01:43:13 download an app,

01:43:15 take a map,

01:43:17 everything that will allow you

01:43:19 to get a reduction in points and advantages.

01:43:21 Some shops are associated

01:43:23 with gas stations and allow you,

01:43:25 when filling up,

01:43:27 to use the points you earned

01:43:29 while shopping.

01:43:31 Even a few cents per liter

01:43:33 will be enough for you.

01:43:35 Do you have a hybrid car?

01:43:37 Then pay close attention.

01:43:39 Turn on your ACLIM when your car

01:43:41 is still plugged into the charger.

01:43:43 This will allow you to extend

01:43:45 the autonomy of your car,

01:43:47 which means you will spend less money.

01:43:49 If you own one of the latest models,

01:43:51 your engine will automatically stop

01:43:53 when you wait for a fire.

01:43:55 If this is not the case,

01:43:57 avoid letting it run.

01:43:59 You will save fuel.

01:44:01 Start your car in less than 10 seconds.

01:44:03 If you have to wait longer than 10 seconds,

01:44:05 stop your car.

01:44:07 By running it,

01:44:09 it will consume up to 2 liters

01:44:11 of extra fuel per hour.

01:44:13 If safety is not one of your main concerns,

01:44:15 at least take care of your car

01:44:17 for economic reasons.

01:44:19 Check that your tires are well inflated

01:44:21 at least once a month.

01:44:23 Without this,

01:44:25 they will be inflated

01:44:27 every 10 seconds.

01:44:29 Without this,

01:44:31 they will wear out faster

01:44:33 and you risk wasting fuel.

01:44:35 Your manual will tell you

01:44:37 how often you have to start your engine.

01:44:39 This depends on the age and model.

01:44:41 Clean the filters so that your car

01:44:43 consumes as little fuel as possible.

01:44:45 Use appropriate oil.

01:44:47 This will prevent your engine

01:44:49 from working too much and consuming too much fuel.

01:44:51 It is useless to fill up

01:44:53 with super fuel

01:44:55 unless you have a very efficient engine

01:44:57 that works with this type of fuel.

01:44:59 This will cost you more

01:45:01 and will not allow your car to go faster,

01:45:03 to be cleaner or to get a better performance.

01:45:05 If your manual recommends

01:45:07 using super fuel but does not require it,

01:45:09 choose a fuel of lower quality.

01:45:11 You will save money.

01:45:13 We have made progress

01:45:15 over the last few decades.

01:45:17 So don't worry about the quality of ordinary fuel.

01:45:19 It is very good.

01:45:21 If your car is a little old,

01:45:23 check the seal of your fuel cap.

01:45:25 If it is damaged, it will let oxygen

01:45:27 through your tank.

01:45:29 Then the fuel will burn much faster.

01:45:31 It is possible to replace this cap,

01:45:33 but the sensors in your car

01:45:35 may not recognize it.

01:45:37 Unless it comes from the manufacturer

01:45:39 or a good supplier.

01:45:41 If you have a manual gearbox,

01:45:43 you are lucky.

01:45:45 You have total control over your speed,

01:45:47 i.e. the number of revolutions per minute.

01:45:49 A lower speed

01:45:51 is translated by a higher speed.

01:45:53 The higher the speed,

01:45:55 the more fuel the engine consumes.

01:45:57 So you have to switch

01:45:59 to a higher speed quickly.

01:46:01 This varies from car to car,

01:46:03 but an optimal solution would be

01:46:05 to switch to second gear

01:46:07 at about 24 km/h

01:46:09 and to switch to higher speed

01:46:11 between 48 and 56 km/h.

01:46:13 The roof box and the bicycle rack

01:46:15 you have installed must disappear.

01:46:17 They increase the wind resistance

01:46:19 of your car and your engine must therefore

01:46:21 consume more fuel to maintain its speed.

01:46:23 This can be translated by

01:46:25 an overconsumption of 20%

01:46:27 on the highway and 8% in the city.

01:46:29 If you need

01:46:31 additional storage space,

01:46:33 opt for the roof box.

01:46:35 If you are about

01:46:37 to buy a car,

01:46:39 opt for an electric hybrid,

01:46:41 a rechargeable hybrid or all-electric.

01:46:43 With an all-electric car,

01:46:45 you will undoubtedly reduce your fuel costs.

01:46:47 But let's assume

01:46:49 you are not ready for such a change.

01:46:51 In this case,

01:46:53 there are many models in hybrid version.

01:46:55 The Toyota RAV4,

01:46:57 the Hyundai Sonata

01:46:59 and the Volvo XC90.

01:47:01 And here is a tip

01:47:05 that will reduce your costs by 100%.

01:47:07 Ready?

01:47:09 Don't take your car!

01:47:11 I'll explain.

01:47:13 Do it whenever possible.

01:47:15 Go to work on foot or by bike

01:47:17 or use public transport.

01:47:19 If it's too much for you,

01:47:21 at least share the road and fuel costs

01:47:23 with colleagues who live in the same area.

01:47:25 Do you know

01:47:27 other tips to save fuel?

01:47:29 Which one do you prefer?

01:47:31 Do not hesitate to share it

01:47:33 in the comments below.

01:47:35 A door that keeps closing

01:47:37 while you are moving

01:47:39 can be very annoying.

01:47:41 To solve the problem,

01:47:43 attach an elastic band

01:47:45 around the handle on each side of the door

01:47:47 so that it meets

01:47:49 at the level of the latch.

01:47:51 The latch will not be able to come out

01:47:53 and the door will not open.

01:47:55 To know if your sheets are completely dry

01:47:57 after spreading them,

01:47:59 place a mirror underneath,

01:48:01 leave it there for about 5 minutes

01:48:03 and if it's still wet,

01:48:05 place a damp bed

01:48:07 or a dirty ground

01:48:09 and other unpleasant mushrooms.

01:48:11 You can paint the edge of your keys

01:48:13 with nail polish of different colors

01:48:15 to easily differentiate them.

01:48:17 To pour the perfect amount of oil

01:48:19 or salad sauce,

01:48:21 make holes in the lid

01:48:23 rather than removing it completely.

01:48:25 This will prevent

01:48:27 too much oil

01:48:29 from quickly coming out of the bottle.

01:48:31 To prevent the bands

01:48:33 from slipping off your finger,

01:48:35 cut a line on each side.

01:48:37 This will create 4 small adhesive strips

01:48:39 rather than a large one

01:48:41 and it will be much easier to fix them.

01:48:43 If you enter public toilets

01:48:45 and you see that someone

01:48:47 has put a red toilet paper under the glasses,

01:48:49 it is better to choose another cabin.

01:48:51 This means that there is no toilet paper

01:48:53 in this one.

01:48:55 The red toilet paper often replaces

01:48:57 the toilet paper roll

01:48:59 in the other cabins.

01:49:01 Speaking of toilets,

01:49:03 public toilets often have a space

01:49:05 between the floor and the door.

01:49:07 The reason for such a lack of privacy

01:49:09 is precisely to minimize it

01:49:11 as well as the level of comfort

01:49:13 so that people do not stay too long

01:49:15 and that there is no queue.

01:49:17 It is also easier to clean like this

01:49:19 and safer if an emergency occurs.

01:49:21 You forgot to put your drink

01:49:23 in the refrigerator?

01:49:25 Roll a wet paper towel around it

01:49:27 and in just 15 minutes

01:49:29 your drink will be frozen.

01:49:31 Instead of filling your handbag

01:49:33 or your portfolio of loyalty cards

01:49:35 from different stores,

01:49:37 you can take a picture of them.

01:49:39 Just take a picture of the barcode

01:49:41 as well as a picture of the front

01:49:43 to know which card it is.

01:49:45 Then, when you go to your store,

01:49:47 you just need to scan the barcode

01:49:49 directly on your phone

01:49:51 to collect your points.

01:49:53 If you use your phone to watch something

01:49:55 and you want to put it back

01:49:57 because it keeps falling,

01:49:59 try to use your sunglasses.

01:50:01 Just put them upside down

01:50:03 and use the branches

01:50:05 to hold your phone in place.

01:50:07 If you don't have a coin coin

01:50:09 of the right size to put in a cash register

01:50:11 the next time you go to the supermarket,

01:50:13 you can use a key instead.

01:50:15 If you have a key with a rounded end,

01:50:17 you can insert it in the slot

01:50:19 and the register should unlock.

01:50:21 If you have trouble holding

01:50:23 your phone in place,

01:50:25 use a muffin tray,

01:50:27 turn the tray over,

01:50:29 spray it with oil

01:50:31 and place your cookies in the slots

01:50:33 and bake them for about 10 minutes

01:50:35 at 180 degrees to get the perfect

01:50:37 crispy cookie.

01:50:39 You can use a bottle of water

01:50:41 to separate the egg yolks.

01:50:43 Hold the bottle over the yolk

01:50:45 and press it to suck it.

01:50:47 Then, just drop it

01:50:49 into a separate bowl.

01:50:51 Slide the earpick

01:50:53 over each egg to wipe off the dust.

01:50:55 This way, the excess dust

01:50:57 will be trapped inside the earpick

01:50:59 and won't fall on you.

01:51:01 To clean your blender,

01:51:03 fill it with soap and hot water.

01:51:05 Turn it on for about 10 seconds

01:51:07 and let the bubbling water

01:51:09 do the rest of the work.

01:51:11 Then, just rinse it

01:51:13 to make it clean.

01:51:15 Put a strip of masking tape

01:51:17 before drilling a plaster wall.

01:51:19 The tape should prevent the plaster

01:51:21 from crumbling or spreading dust

01:51:23 all over the floor.

01:51:25 If your shoes smell bad,

01:51:27 put a few bags of dry tea inside.

01:51:29 They will absorb the bad smells.

01:51:31 Try using toothpaste

01:51:33 to remove the small scratches

01:51:35 on the furniture,

01:51:37 rubbing a small amount of a small weight

01:51:39 on your scratch,

01:51:41 making circular movements

01:51:43 until it disappears.

01:51:45 Then, wipe it off with a damp cloth

01:51:47 and let it dry.

01:51:49 Drill two small holes

01:51:51 in the bottom of your bin

01:51:53 to prevent the bag from getting stuck

01:51:55 when you take it out.

01:51:57 The holes prevent the vacuum

01:51:59 that traps the bag inside.

01:52:01 You can easily remove the residue

01:52:03 from the Boko labels

01:52:05 by using cooking oil.

01:52:07 Soak a cotton pad in a little oil

01:52:09 and rub it on the sticky area.

01:52:11 Let it sit for a few minutes

01:52:13 and the residue should come off easily.

01:52:15 If you don't have a shampoo,

01:52:17 soak your new woolen pad

01:52:19 in water that comes with a few tablespoons

01:52:21 of shampoo and leave it for 15 minutes.

01:52:23 Then, dry it

01:52:25 and your pad will be much more silky.

01:52:27 A smell on your fingers

01:52:29 can be removed

01:52:31 by rubbing it together with toothpaste.

01:52:33 Then, rinse it well.

01:52:35 This will help you get rid of the smell

01:52:37 and will also act as a slight eraser.

01:52:39 Before throwing away your old shoes,

01:52:41 get a toothbrush and a pair of gloves

01:52:43 to clean your shoes.

01:52:45 Insert the toothbrush in the dirty areas

01:52:47 and let it act for at least 10 minutes.

01:52:49 Wipe it with a damp cloth

01:52:51 and start over if it didn't work

01:52:53 the first time.

01:52:55 Be careful of the colored toothbrushes

01:52:57 as they can leave stains.

01:52:59 By washing your clothes at low temperature

01:53:01 or even better, by washing them

01:53:03 in cold water,

01:53:05 you will make them last twice as long.

01:53:07 By drying them outside on a rope,

01:53:09 they will last as long as if you used

01:53:11 a dry cloth.

01:53:13 Metal zippers are very durable,

01:53:15 but they get stuck more easily

01:53:17 than other types of zippers.

01:53:19 Just gently rub a soap

01:53:21 on the teeth on both sides

01:53:23 of the zipper.

01:53:25 The residue will help lubricate it,

01:53:27 making it easier to open and close.

01:53:29 When you can no longer

01:53:31 remove toothpaste from your tube,

01:53:33 simply cut the end.

01:53:35 This will allow you to put

01:53:37 what is left inside on your toothbrush

01:53:39 in case you need it.

01:53:41 If there is enough for more than one use,

01:53:43 put it in a plastic bag for later.

01:53:45 Freezing candles before using them

01:53:47 can make them burn

01:53:49 much more slowly.

01:53:51 This will cool the wax

01:53:53 and prolong the time of the melt.

01:53:55 The strings on your cotton bag

01:53:57 will hang it somewhere.

01:53:59 And no, you don't need to

01:54:01 detach and tighten the bag.

01:54:03 Look at the bottom of the bag.

01:54:05 There is a perforated slit.

01:54:07 You can now take out the cotton one by one.

01:54:09 If you have already tasted

01:54:11 a Nintendo cartridge,

01:54:13 you can confirm it.

01:54:15 They have a repulsive taste

01:54:17 and leave a bitter aftertaste in your mouth.

01:54:19 It's because they are covered

01:54:21 in Benzoate 2D Natonium,

01:54:23 one of the most atrocious tastes

01:54:25 known to man.

01:54:27 In fact, manufacturers add it on purpose

01:54:29 to prevent children from swallowing

01:54:31 these cartridges.

01:54:33 In a car, the headrests are there

01:54:35 for safety.

01:54:37 If you remove the headrest from the seat,

01:54:39 you will see two fairly solid bars.

01:54:41 If you ever find yourself locked in a car,

01:54:43 you can get out of it

01:54:45 by breaking the window with these bars.

01:54:47 The rugged edges of the parts

01:54:49 are not just a matter of design.

01:54:51 In the past, the parts were made of precious metals

01:54:53 to show their real value.

01:54:55 But people denied the edges,

01:54:57 spent the parts denied

01:54:59 with the same value and melted the edges

01:55:01 to make new parts.

01:55:03 To avoid this, this design was added

01:55:05 so that we could know if someone

01:55:07 had denied the part.

01:55:09 The black grid on the microwave door

01:55:11 is not just decorative.

01:55:13 It is called a "air-headlight cage"

01:55:15 and it prevents the rays from escaping

01:55:17 from the microwave.

01:55:19 It also accelerates heating,

01:55:21 which allows you to enjoy the leftovers

01:55:23 of the day before more quickly.

01:55:25 The triple handle of a gas can

01:55:27 is there to allow two people

01:55:29 to carry it more easily

01:55:31 and in a uniform way.

01:55:33 The cans often have a second hole
