If anyone has any other suggestions for the can opening with a piece of paper please let us know! Perhaps we could try card? We are determined to make it work.... also our house smelt of burnt coconut hair for days after this so don't try it unless you really have to and can open many windows! You can check all the other kitchen hack attempts to date on this playlist kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oMp7qcKBuquwaWQ.html please keep the hack ideas you've found coming, some of them are genuinely amazing!

you can just imagine Mrs B waking up in the middle of the night to the noise of Barry still trying to open a can with paper.

"It's actually on fire!" is Mrs.B's catchphrase at this point.

Firefighters: do you know how the kitchen fire started? Barry: 🤷🏻‍♂️

That potato bit is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Clearly authentic, you're both laughing, and a perfect punchline. I rewound it like five times. And Mrs. B catches them like a pro! So good.

I just need a compilation of Ms. B's face journeys during kitchen hack videos. This one had some all-time greats.

I love how Mrs. B got the jump scare on Barry for once, lol

1: Fold the paper four times 2: Wrap the paper around an old-fashioned, lever style can opener 3: Press the rounded end of the can opener (not the pointy side) against the can lid and open the can 4: Enjoy the Coke

Have you ever been in a situation where you need to chop a banana, but you don't own a knife, but you do own a fork and a pair of metal pliers? No, me neither 😂

We need a Tshirt with "its actually on fire!!!" on it lmao

Barry sliding into frame: "We only need one potato" 😂 I laughed so hard

The victory lift when she finally succeeded with the coconut 🥥 💃🏼😍

Allowing your husband to set coconuts on fire in the house = True love

Fold the paper until YOU CAN"T FOLD IT ANY MORE, then with a lever-like action from the middle of the can (to prevent cutting yourselves), press a corner end down on the pre-cut round drink hole. Works every time.

The polenta one I think could be used for.lots of other things as well! Rice for example! (That would avoid you having to burn the plastic the other hack required 😬)

I'm sure the emergency services are on Mrs B's speed-dial and on stand-by for each of these 'Barry tries' videos 😂 Thank goodness emergency services are free at the point of use... The potato scene, however, is a visual representation of how I feel at the till doing my grocery shop at Aldi 😂

My favorite cheese hack is to use a vegetable peeler to get long large slices for easier melting.

MrsB has the patience of a saint. No to encourage bad Barry behavior, if you have that many potatoe's to peel break out a mechanical apple peeler or for you Barry 1 cordless drill + small wood drill bit place drill bit in drill according to instructions, skewer potato on broad end of drill bit turn on drill and hold potatoe peeler at proper angle on potatoe and move as needed to remove skin.

My grandma used to bake the whole coconut in the oven at 400 degrees F for a few minutes to get it open. She made awesome coconut cakes she used the milk inside in the cake. Also I absolutely love you and Mrs B. Thank you for being so entertaining. ❤️

“Want to cut a banana slightly more quickly with less structural integrity? First, ruin a fork.”

The coconut one toss a cracked coconut in the freezer. It comes out much easier

I've snapped a few can pulls I always use a spoon and rub it on the edge to open mine hack you can always open tin can with a spoon if you don't have a tin opener

Mrs. B's catching skills are amazing.

Mrs. B is wonderful. Her skeptical glances ( see 2:51 ) give me life. You did good when you found that lady, Barry.

We are all so glad that you test these hacks so we don’t need to and for those that we can use thank you and for those that don’t work we can just ignore. Thank you Mr and Mrs B for your consumer advice

I absolutely love the way Mrs B laughs Makes me happy

Please try Egg slicer -> banana Love you guys!

My gosh mrs. B is good at catching those potatoes! 🤣 Also the coconut hack... you can pretty easily open a coconut by first puncturing one of the holes with a screwdriver, drain the coconut water, then use a hammer to beat round the shell until it cracks enough for you to pull it apart, and finally use a spoon to get the coconut meat out.

The can thing absolutely does work. You gotta push down harder, apply more pressure.

here's a hack i use all the time is if you don't have a clean knife and need to spread something on bread use the back of the tea or tablespoon.

The coke is easy, you place the folded paper on top then you hit it with a hammer, works every time

We just have a large rock outside our home where we break open the coconut. There is also a coconut opener with like a super hard substance in its center where you can hit the coconut and get it open. You get a hand held coconut grater and also a coconut "chipper", which is basically a steel rod with one end flattened to detach the coconut meat from the shell. These things are pretty readily available in India especially in the south where coconut is used in daily cooking.

Becky's face when you finished the banana hack... LOL

With the can opening do what u were doing but hold the paper nearer to the folded edge...you are keeping your fingers well out the way but you need them closer to the edge you are using to open it. This works...i have done it myself 👍

The coconut one. You just put the coconut, cut side down on a tray in the oven, about 180-200° for like 15 min. Then it comes away from the shell.

OMG YES BECKY!!! That sound is like the dentist!! He was killing me too!

Thinking of a hack, can't recall if you've already done it cos I learned it off youtube, if you are missing a tin opener, and have a tin with no ring-pull top, rub it on a flat stone surface (E.G. paving slab, brick, recently poured and cured concrete for a studio kitchen, etc.) to grind the top ridge of the rolled seam down, and then with a few gentle squeezes of the sides, the top will pop off, can also be done with sandpaper and metal files... :D

this might seem like a dumb point but when it comes to slicing the banana why not just use a knife interesting coconut hack though 😃 looking forward to next episode

you need to fold the paper more so it's more a solid mass, doesn't need to be sharp you not trying to cut through the can top, you trying to put pressure onto it to break the seal, so the more folds in the paper the better. Use the thickest corner and rub along where the seal should break, put some pressure into it

Can we just appreciate how awesome Barry is. He's grown so much since the first video in 2010.

With the bag in the bottle neck hack, you could use an elastic band to help hold the plastic bag in place - a thick one like the ones that hold together broccoli stalks at the grocery store - that would make pouring easier and more secure! Might try that myself.

Mrs Barry getting bombarded with potatoes made my day. :D

We cook with coconut often in our home. We just poke out the eyes, drain the water and throw it in an oven on a baking sheet until it cracks. Remove from oven, wait till it cools and the meat pops right out of the shell.

Love the music. That’s an ornament now! Hard hats for cats. And not giving up on the soda can 😂

3:39 I feel like Mrs. B’s joke went under the radar, I thought it was great!

Too much fun! One potato, Two potato! Bake the coconut in medium oven - no smell.

I love watching you guys together! The way you interact is fun to watch!

Me and my daughter were in absolute stitches at you guys! As always enjoyable viewing 😂

The damp cloth thing is the first thing I was ever taught in the kitchen :D!

Poor Mrs. B needs a drink after these when it’s your turn to pick the hacks! Hehe truly true love! ❤️❤️hugs from Texas! 🇨🇱

Those potato holders have always been available here in Germany, with longer handles and with three prongs Mainly used for peeling spuds boiled in their skin which are too hot to hold in the hand.

Barry tries so hard to make these hacks work, but it ends up being twice as much work as the original way LOL

Mrs. B trying to get the coconut out and it cutting to Barry rubbing the coke can was peak comedy.

“Are you ready for hack 3? You’ll need a banana” “we don’t have any” 😂😂😂 so funny

Love this Barry

Fun fact: a screw driver also works to open up the can if the pulltab breaks off. Lol. Just wack down with the screw driver tip and it will open it up. Lol

I really like the corn holder one for carrots and potatoes. My 4 yr old loves peeling carrots but I'm always afraid he's gonna catch his fingers..that will keep them away from the peeler!

At that point just grab a cheap teaspoon and smack the handle into the opening of the can hold it by the spoon end and your safe as for the coconut one, thats just a bad idea segment it with a knife or if your trying to show off hit it with a hammer

This was absolutely hilarious. I'd hate to break the news, but I watch for that more than improving my kitchen game.

I always love Mrs Barry look of baffled terror

The throwing of the potatoes at mrs B made me feel like I was at the checkout in Aldi

"I need to go away" immediately entering my vocab

Barry, your next kitchen gadget needs to be a fire extinguisher! For Mrs B's sake lol 🤣

Favourite part of this video was Mrs B getting potatoes continuously thrown to her 😂😂😂

Thank you for the hacks and entertainment :-)

15:23 talking of old drinks, I still have a small bottle of cola in the shape of a football (unopened) manufactured as a promotional item for the 2006 FIFA Football World Cup in Germany and it’s still pretty fizzy when u shake it

You are a hilarious pair, love watching your hack testing videos! 💕

When your going to the trouble of bending all of the tines on your fork you might as well just gaffa tape four thin knifes together. It might even work ☺️🤞

Love the video!

I’m loving Mrs. B’s flowery top ! I realise this is not hack related but I had to say it !

I think you completely misunderstood the can opening hack. The paper is folded to make it tough. Then the paper is used to just push the can open with force. The rubbing is simply a misunderstanding, because the paper doesn't really have any grip on the metal. So while pushing it with force it slides around a bit, which looks like rubbing I guess. (At least that's how I understood it.)

If you use a handle of a wooden spoon on the can and rub it hard and fast it will open this actually does work as I’ve done it in the past 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Mrs. B is a great catch!! That was an amazing scene 🥰

For peeling, I always peel away from me and I do 1 half at time. Peel half, rotating all the way around, then flip and peel the other side. I've never nicked my fingers. I like the idea of the corn holder though. could make it faster :)

Should try this hack with a balloon whisk if you don't have an electric whisk. Hold the handle between both palms and run them back and forth (motion like you're trying to to start a fire using sticks) I find it works so much easier and more quickly than beating normally.... especially if you're trying to whip cream

You two make a lovely couple although I think Mrs B needs a medal putting up with Barry lol.

Mrs. B's face at the 8:03 minute mark juxtaposed with Homer's face in the background cracks me up!

Mrs. B is great.

I love these videos

You 2 are so funny it's nice to learn about the hacks

You guys are my fav couple on the internet :)

She was so funny doing the jump cut , bring the family on cam more do much fun

If I don't see Stuart making a video with this cherry coke in 20 years I will be very upset with you Barry. Such a good one though.

I can see why the paper can opening thing might work. Some paper is mildly abrasive so you're essentially sanding/polishing your way through, however not all paper is the same, a lot of paper is waxed which will go against it in this regard (and sucks for starting fires as it doesn't burn readily) and some papers are more coarse than others. If it was a drinks can I'd just find something to push the opening in with (your thumb will work but cuts are likely unless you've got tough skin) or if it was a soup can I'd rub it on a rock/concrete (something actually abrasive) until the rim split and I could get the contents out, you'd want to be careful of metal shavings though as these could cause all sorts of issues if you ate them.

With the paper and the can, you do not just rub it. You have to push on the pre cut lines with a bit of pressure and eventyally you weaken it. You can just do it with your finger but you risk getting cut, hence the protective paper barrier between your finger and the can. Honestly though, you can do it with anything stiff, the back of a wooden spoon is what I use if this happens to me at home.

Very good

The can thing also works with a wooden stick, but maybe it is card in the video. It needs to be strong and thick and it needs to be the corner and constantly rubbing where you drink from around the rim

You can open and separate coconut flesh from its shell by piercing, draining and oven baking it at 200 °C for 35min. Take it out, wrap it in a thick tea towel then hammer it a few times. The coconut will separate from the shell easily 😊

IDEA FOR THE CAN OPENER HACK: Is the paper to a can hack being used to cause heat and expand the gas inside? that's similar to how sometimes a blowtorch is used to heat the air in a wine bottle so as not to contaminate the wine by having a corkscrew put cork into the wine, the pressure as a result of the heat pushes the cork out, perhaps the same applies here in the coke can, therefore maybe a gas lighter applied to the top of the can in a localised area might open it the same way (cans are plastic coated inside so there is some potential for the drink to be tainted this way but may prove an interesting party trick)

Barry try using a soup style can opener on your soda/beer can if your missing the tab. Bottle openers work well if you tap with a bit of force.

This is my FAVOURITE video of you two :D! I especially loved the tater tossing xD

Barry- We need a banana. Mrs. Barry- Looks around… we haven’t got any.

On the soda pop…they are not rubbing the paper they are pushing the seam with the edge of the Firmly folded paper

Stay safe💕

Really cool video!

“This cheddar has lovely wooden notes”

10/10 for the editing 👌

Drain out the coconut water by poking 3holes on the bottom/top of the coconut. Then put it in the over for 15 minutes , temperature oven at 350. The shell will break right off.

I've seen the can trick done with chopsticks, but folded paper is basically the same thing. With them though, they span it around the entire rim of the can, instead of going back and forth in one spot.

"Are you proud of me? Are you proud of me?" "…okay."
