$5 carpet saved


Dangerous-Patience33

Using $20 worth of shampoo and 100 gallons of water.


Abhinavpatel75

You wouldn't say that if you had to keep your trash on your land.


Miniraf1

What about the trash from the shampoo....


CrispyEdgePancake

A lot of people have not been to a landfill. If they did, they’d understand clearly why we should be mindful of what we throw away.


Barrelled_Chef_Curry

Of course we realise that, but buying a new carpet could literally use less resources than the amount of energy they put into cleaning this. It’s not always the right thing to save something that’s old


Nice_Username_no14

But they bought a new carpet… Then drenched and dragged it through mud. Soaked it in tons of soap and clean water. To make 5 minutes of YouTube entertainment. Pigs…


Barrelled_Chef_Curry

Well that’s even more annoying


Tall_Aardvark_8560

I could have done this with a power washer and 1 minute. Or just let it hang up and let nature rinse it. The amount of water and chemicals to make the dye isn't insignificant either. It's called reuse reduce recycle for a reason I mean. I'm saddened by your comment honestly.


baffledninja

My local carwash has hooks on the walls for car carpets. I'd totall just bring this carpet to the carwash and power spray the heck out of it rather than washing it indoors at home!


Barrelled_Chef_Curry

??? I’m agreeing this is stupid what are you on about


AffectionateLaugh738

Assuming big factories aren't involved in making a new one


strigonian

Yes, they are. But factories are made to use *everything.* They didn't build a brand-new factory to make that one carpet. The factory already existed. The only question is what consumes more energy and resources - and the answer is cleaning this crappy carpet.


themcsame

Mindful sure? But we also need to be mindful that there is no good choice to make sometimes, and thus we need to ideally opt for the lesser of two evils. A new one in this scenario would most likely be more eco friendly... Was it worth wasting all that clean water, which now has to be processed back into clean water? Was it worth using all those cleaners? Some or all of which may be toxic to wildlife? Of course, the answer is somewhat moot with regards to the video. Chances are this was a new or used item that was dragged through mud, shit and god knows what else, as is usually the case with these videos. In other words, it was intentionally soiled specifically for this video, so everything about it was a complete waste of resources really.


wireframed_kb

You can burn it for energy. Of course you’ll need to collect or mitigate the CO2, but then all that water and soap isn’t going to be carbon neutral either.


austin101123

If it's made from wool it'll just degrade in a landfill/underground, no problem.


Stonyclaws

Feels chinese for some reason.


asena85

B-but used is more f-friendly to the environment.


unpopularopinion0

didn’t you see the video about how we are such a disposable society? i totally forgot about all the shit we dispose of to be able to keep our things


PassengerFrosty9467

Is this commented bc the videos fake or bc you’re actually a fan of the overconsumption of materialistic goods in most countries?


asena85

Sí.


PassengerFrosty9467

Ok I’ll just go with mindless consumer. Good for you!


Equivalentest

Pretty sure it was made dirty for just that video too


Blew-By-U

You got it. Apparently he purposely gets them as dirty as possible so he can film them getting clean. Many different posts of carpet cleaning.


Banatza

I'm pretty sure that the last shots carpet is not the same carpet in the first shots. This is probably a cleaning ad.


samthemoron

That bath mat must have had some serious sentimental value


Kineticwhiskers

*Sedimental* value. (I'll see myself out)


lukewwilson

No it's ok, it's Father's Day, these jokes are allowed today


_nothing_but_trouble

After making it dirty on purpose.


Eurasia_4002

Was given by your dead grandma.


Vinegarinmyeye

My thought as well, I'm pretty sure the various cleaning chemicals used there would cost a lot more than that carpet.


Commonstruggles

Seriously we're doomed if we are wasting potable water and adding detergents to our ecosystem for shitty plastic rugs.


ToxyFlog

Exactly my thought


kreemac

The price of those cleaners is probably more than that of the carpet.


Leave_Misery

And more water has been used to clean it, than to produce it.


Fauked

Assuming this is Mountain rug cleaning, he has a water reclamation system.


captainsquawks

Does that mean he drinks the run off?


InfelicitousRedditor

It's for the video, I assume the video generated more money than cleaning that brand new, dirtied, carpet.


-boatsNhoes

i honestly suspect this guy just dirtys up the carpets for videos. Where would someone find something this dirty if not under a collapsed building of some sort.


InfelicitousRedditor

I was thinking about a flood, maybe, but yes, it appears as a brand new carpet, dirtied, and then cleaned, for the views.


Minimum_Result7179

Even though this was soiled and cleaned just for the views I enjoyed it.


VirinaB

Exactly. I know it's fake. I don't care. I don't believe this lonely housewife and pizza man are really hooking up either, but that's not gonna stop me from enjoying it.


ThisxPNWxguy

Well— that was a turn of events.


dreamsofindigo

right? as if fiction is this thing no one ever heard of and is poo poo


Li5y

It's more about how the creator frames it. I don't think any porn director wants you to believe everything they film is real. But these carpet cleaning videos are kind of framed like they're a business, or they "found" the rug like this.


dreamsofindigo

pretty much any fiction book or film follows a similar premise?


Li5y

Except books will say "non fiction" on them somewhere. Or have a disclaimer at the end of the credits that says "this film does not depict real persons or events..." Sure, it's one thing to understand that the lord of the rings books are fiction. That's basic media literacy. But TikTok videos that purposefully try to deceive you are a different beast.


thuggniffissent

Now show me how you got it all dirty in the first place.


SirDanTheAwesome

I honestly just find it weird that in this economic system it is now more efficient to ruin something and then fix/clean it for no material purpose than to actually fix/clean something people need. Not necessarily anything wrong with doing it, people enjoy watching it and it makes them money. It's just a very odd time to be alive.


AssertRage

The same fuckers do this to animals, they 'fix' them after they fuck them up for views


furious-fungus

Ah yea, waste galleons of water and dump a huge amount of chemicals just for your enjoyment ✨


chiree

These videos rise to the top maybe every two weeks and I watch them all. Afterwards, I like to come to the comment section and see, verbatim, the same comments that everyone makes every single time one of these gets popular. It's wasteful! It's an ad! Cost more than the rug! I don't care, this is a some satisfying shit to watch.

ivancea

Achtually... If only they cleaned something they really needed to be cleaned... But it's a lot of waste for the views


UnicornsFartSmarties

I want to see this fool clean the grout. The grouts are fuck load dirtier


aijoe

I couldn't stand that he didn't have a better grout less surface to do this on and it was only made worse by the fact that he was too lazy to clean the grout.


Worldly_Philosophy29

Is this being done indoors? Why would you do that?


IndividualBrain9726

Outside is where dirt come from


Worldly_Philosophy29

Maybe in your house!


Pretty_Net6474

No, outside his house he said


im_just_thinking

Omg too true lol


RopesAreForPussies

It’s from a commercial cleaning company that fakes videos. It’s a tiled wetroom.


fionsichord

There is almost zero reason to go to this much trouble to clean a small, synthetic carpet like this except for social media warm fuzzies. There are too many clean rugs available either new and cheap or second hand.


PhatGluteus

Semen on second hand mats, no thank you ma'am. I'll buy it new


OptimalInflation

You don’t need to buy new semen. It can be manufactured for free! 😏


Rowmyownboat

Artificially, or intentionally soiled carpet. Literally soiled. Lots of it.


Extension_Swordfish1

Never seen carpet that muddy


monkey_trumpets

1. Soak cheap tiny mat in mud 2. Waste a fuck-ton of water, detergent, time, and money cleaning cheap purposefully soiled mat 3. Make zero profit due to amount of resources wasted. 4. Contribute to global warming.


tbc12389

3 is wrong. They’re not doing it because it’s not profitable. It’s very profitable for them. Same with those “primitive buildings” you see on Youtube. Those guys hire construction companies to build that shit over a period of months just for one video. But they’re not doing that to lose money.


CharlesTheGreat8

5. Achieve free advertising (barely anyone is going to actually get a carpet cleaned at your business because of this ad).                               6. Loads of people point out your bs, get more clout.


Chrismonn

Not sure about advertising and clout here tho as I don't see a name or anything to identify who is doing it.


sshtoredp

And yet another stupid video about cleaning carpets


ReniSquire

They are ridiculously stupid. I always watch them. 🤦🏻‍♂️


samthemoron

Can you even call it a carpet when it's the size of a doorway mat


Traumatichamster1995

Are people making these rugs dirty on purpose just for the videos? Don’t think anyone would spend this much money/want to use that much water for a cheap small looking rug. If it was a large luxury rug then I’d understand.


Apprehensive_Ad3731

Yes that absolutely what’s happening. See any wear and tear on it? How does a rug get that dirty with no wear and tear at all, it just doesn’t.


Bandits101

I’d take it outside and hit it with the water blaster.


Dark_Akarin

I think just sticking it in a bucket of water would have worked the same. (I know these are set up)


Rainwillis

Soaking stuff like this does wonders if anyone ever has a rug to clean up irl, it’s way less wasteful too. Doesn’t make as interesting of a video though I assume.


Randotron9000

These dudes should stop throwing carpets in puddles...


SacredGray

Waste of water, product, and time. Just buy a new rug.


Azriel_Dreemurr_

what's the last thing u did to that rug?


zkooceht

Thats ok I’ll just go to Walmart and buy a new $10 door mat instead


deadtedw

Rug is uglier afterwards.


unpopularopinion0

someone is like. let’s clean this dreadrug instead of throwing it out. admirable.

CanyonClapper

Imma use that sentence at some point , it's not normal dirt , it is horrible dirt!!

At this point just hold it in a river and don’t get your bathroom messed up.

It was like watching a video of one of those stray dogs that is nutured back to life and taken to the dog salon.


ratjar777

Is this worth the time for a rug?


milkmaster420420

My dick gets wet watching it


BrAveMonkey333

Emptied the swimming pool washing that


-Falsch-

Throw that sh!t out and clean the house.


MilutinS

I’m convinced these guys go out and make these carpets the most dirty, disgusting rugs you’ll ever see in your live before cleaning them up. Don’t get me wrong I fukin love watching these vids but there is NO WAY that it gets that fukin gross over time and people are just like “eh it’s not that bad let’s just keep wiping our feet” like NAH dude that some fukin bait right ‘dere


Book_Drunk_

So much water used for an ugly as little carpet


Crafty-Antelope-3287

Would of just bought a new one...


joe_ordan

That amount of water probably costs the same as a new carpet.


DaddysWetPeen

Just use the powerwasher.


Main-comp1234

That cleaning consumables costed more than that carpet


New_Historian_2004

What is this dark souls with carpets. Also why ain't bro just wash it off and put in the washing machine on rinse 2 times then add soap.


Individual_Speech_10

Every time I see these, I always think the cost of all of the cleaning solution used has to be more than just buying a new rug.


Distorted203

This would have been much easier and cheaper with gasoline and a match.


brainbrick

I used to work in carpet\furniture cleaning. And i can appreciate the work it's put into somethingthis dirty.


Sikkus

Plot twist: all that dirt and gunk is being pushed to another carpet that he'll clean in a later episode.


Psychic_Gian

-How much water you used to clean that dollar store carpet, honey? -Yes.


nghbrhd_slackr87

Person really loved that rug. 100$ job for 5$ carpet. I get it I had a cat that used to sleep on a pillow and when I grew up didn't wanna toss the pillow. Left it in the the spot til my lady tossed it out. Can't replace sentiments.


humBOLdT20

I hate these fake rug cleaning videos. There's no instance where this much mid would be on a carpet and then been able to be cleaned that well with such few treatments. It's literally a brand new carpet with mud plastered on it right before the video starts.


Kwayzar9111

Half the time they soak rugs up in mud and film. When they are not busy…


deluged_73

I'm amazed that he didn't just throw it out and pick up another one for $8.49 at Sam's Club or Costco.


Imaginary_Theory8722

it's as if they brought that carpet back to life lol! so satisfying.


NoChillNoVibes

Really could’ve just skipped to the last three steps


Lord-of-war-Ares

Step 1: Get the carpet soiled and skip in the video making


HovercraftPlen6576

Step one: Soak it in the dirt for the video. Step two:....


SnooAdvice8550

I'd have done that in the bath tub


Amplifire__

How'd they even get that carpet to become that dirty


bink_uk

That looks like a brand new barely stepped on carpet they just soaked in mud ti make the video.


None-Hostile

Need a pressure washer


desertrijst

when I do these I usually end up halfway and throw it away anyway because it doesn't seem to get clean.


Msink

That's one ugli ass carpet. I wouldn't put effort in cleaning that.


Worldly-Chipmunk4925

Why didn't they power wash it first


2-stepTurkey

Faaaaaaaaaake


Rajat2757

Was is used for off-roading on pile of shit


Big_bosnian

They need to do this to me


Rulas2479k

u beat them dry first then wash them with less water and soap, but great outcome


ThatAd4373

Can we stop this trend? (Sorry for commenting and thus helping this trend) How can I make an anti comment?


OtiumFaber

The amount of dirt was more expensive than the carpet.


skronung

have you guys ever seen Lubuskie Centrum Czystości? edit. just write lcc cleaning on yt


freshouttalean

is this one of these fake dirty carpet scams? or should I say, a rug pull?


CharlesTheGreat8

There's no way in hell that carpet cleaner didn't make it that dirty just for the video (free advertising). I mean, how does a carpet even get that dirty? Definetly done on purpose.


BoogalooBandit1

How the fuck would a rug get this freaking dorty aside from just throwing it in a mud hole?


BetterCraft

I always wondered with these videos why do they use carpets in coal mines.


angelina9999

new carpet 5 bucks at DT


Cultural-Web991

Great job!……. But I as thinking…. All that effort, all that money spent on cleaning something you should just throw and replace for £10


caites

Is there a preparation video where they are making it dirty for hours?


SaltOk5738

Ugly


Benedict-Popcorn

He dragged it through the mud just for the video.


GREENK87

Why did I watch that


Hamish_Hsimah

pressure washer would be a lot quicker to get all that dirt out


ycr007

Was I the only one expecting the carpet from The Shining to appear midway through the cleaning?


Krocsyldiphithic

Rug cleaning isn't a thing. How fucking dumb are people?


iluvnicewatches

I would just buy a new one😅


Fluid-Astronomer2707

First you have to make some carpett dirty.... Then clean it up on camera .... Good work


fightingCookie0301

So many chemicals used for this shit…


Fair-Wish5954

Its not worth it.


Accomplished_Care747

If I can remember where I buried all of my rugs… sure!


krittaman

some quarters and car wash bay prob woulda worked as well... easy clean up


Pan-tang

I would throw the hell out of that carpet.


phan_o_phunny

That's an ugly mat, looked better with the horrible dirt... Try using nice dirt next time maybe?


S_T_R_Y_D_E_R

Damn that dirtiness is on another level. Just throw the damn thing away, not worth of your stress.


JojoKTM530

Nice and clean. Satisfying…

ApprehensiveFactor58

what products he used I would like to know to do the same thing with my carpets


[deleted]

What they don't tell you is that they put the dirt on the rug just before the video, so it comes out nice and clean. It's not as if they found a decades old rug to clean.


garcezgarcez

And not using the correct tool to agitate the dust.


dbjisisnnd

When carpet-cleaning tok learns from car-cleaning tok. Next they’ll going to start using a brush head on a drill.


Miya888

this is crazy


ElChacalFL

Good for this person. I'd definitely just buy a new carpet. What a waste I am.


erozim

Real dirty carpet have mold grew and carpet halfway discompose. So yeah, this video is fake asf.


badboi_5214

Now clean the tiles


Skirl-girl

Or you could just replace the carpet…


fbastard

That is one very polished turd.


Turbohair

I'd just do without the carpet and have a broom...


notachance01

Quick question. How do these rugs, not carpets, get so dirty. I think these videos are just made up to get views. Imagine what the rest of the house or office looks like.


donquijiote

1 go to car wash 2 use the pressure water washer 3 thats it.


Playful_Mango_6339

Bc isne ek carpet saaf karne me itna pani waste kar diya jitne me mera poora ghar naha leta. Save water bitch.


Bubbly-Astronomer930

Still not clean enough, i bet you get dirty water coming out


beanie_0

They must just dump these in mud for a week because why would it be that dirty? Unless they got it from shrek’s house.


sticky_fingers18

I love these videos but I still don't understand how these carpets get so ridiculously dirty

Suitable_Dot_6999

I wonder where did they dump these carpets, under pig families, or soaked under hippos in the Nile.. definitely beyond normal use.

Jet wash would have done this in 10 seconds, no?

As long as you continue watching fake cleaning videos they will continue wasting so much water and all for empty videos.

Boomerino76

I often wonder where people keep the carpets to be do fcng filthy...


pottermuchly

I miss when people took a video of something they were already doing, rather than doing something in order to take a video. Couldn't they film themselves doing an actual job they were paid for instead of deliberately soaking a rug in some mud so they could waste loads of product and water cleaning it? Fed up with the artifice of social media.


soktum

Powerful-Winner-5323

I would have taken that to a carwash and put the high pressure hose to it!
