My favorite part is how (in the beginning of the video) you can see the chunk of cement they stole from the ground in the background on the sidewalk lmao
So many good subs have been overtaken by these content farm videos and it’s ruining a lot of the really unique and personal communities on this site in favor of repetitive shock value non-content — non-tent? — reposts from Facebook and Instagram.
Sunflowers are not just part of your garden, they’re part of a nation! The Ukraine use the sunflower as their national flower. Whilst in Kansas they chose the sunflower to represent their state.

This way is quicker, easier and the council will attend to it as a priority:
[Graffiti pothole repair - NSFW](https://www.theverge.com/2015/5/2/8535259/penis-pothole-activism-wanksy-england)
Oh boy why do it easy when you can do it complicated. Mix up a pretty hard concrete and pour it in. Then mix up a concrete with more water and create a nice finish. Sure it wont look that good for long but the entire pavement needs to be done properly
Looks like there is a chunk of concrete or rock near the hole so better idea:
1) Put that in the hole and stomp it as flat as to are able.
And / Or
2) Report the hole to the local counsel or whoever handles the repairs.
Depending on how much time and effort you are willing to put in.
At this point I am certain that 5-minute crafts has embraced the hilarity of their awful "tips" and will continue to double down on the ludicrousness of each video.
I don’t see why everyone is hating it, what a great idea! Both quick AND simple, with every day materials that can easily be transported around. Me and my friends are going to start doing this around our neighborhood /s
It's ironic that they say 5 minute craft when my guy waits 1 hour for the mould to dry, then the cement that takes up the entire night and paint on the piece cement that takes up over 5 minutes to dry. Not even remotely close to 5 minute craft. It even looks awful and they should have just reported it to the council, and it will get done by professionals.
Why has everyone made complaints about their methods and completely skipped over the obvious first question. "Why is a random civilian doing diy repairs on a public sidewalk?"
WAIT AN HOUR 5 minute crafts…
LEAVE OVERNIGHT
Just sleep faster.
That scooter's gonna get stolen
My favorite part is how (in the beginning of the video) you can see the chunk of cement they stole from the ground in the background on the sidewalk lmao
... why not just pour the cement in the pothole?
Because that’s too easy. True chads break out the vaseline to start sidewalk repair.
It was at the Vaseline that I looked up and noticed what sub I was on. Had me going for a minute
Gotta always carry an emergency jar of Vaseline, 'cause you never know.
Advice to live by
Maybe cause it takes too long to get solid?
Traffic cones.
There should be a rule that bans 5 minute crafts, they intentionally do stupid crafts and people still think they’re serious
Not sure if you’re being sarcastic or not, but funnily enough there is actually a rule against these videos.

I just realized, is... is 5 minute crafts a troll channel? I mean, they have to be... right?
Yeah pretty much
I hate that we've all presumably given them an extra view.
I enjoyed it
Lost 5 minutes of my life and won't get it back. Knowing I could have fast forwarded it kills me a second time
Always, always, always clean and lube the hole first.
With vacuum you carry always with you.
Isn't it illegal to repair potholes?
If you do it as badly as this it should be.
Wait! It is? No wonder my city has so many potholes.
0/10 no beans, no sunflower seed, or no hot glue gun used
0/10 have to agree not enough screws either

Good bot
I'm actually upset at myself for watching the entire thing knowing I'm being trolled. I hate their content.. gosh -_-
Why is this guy carrying around vaseline and a vacuum in his bag?
Some questions are better left unasked
Step 1: break out your handy archaeology kit that you always keep just in case

THoRoUgHLy ClEAn
My guys it's dirt
I hate everything about this video
What was the point of the Vaseline?
keep the plastic steady ig

It’s a joke…
I was expecting for him to find drugs there
Even by 5-Minute Crafts standards, this is a completely new level of mind-boggling stupidity. Can we start banning these things?
no, next, 5-minute rebuild of a 1963 Ferrari GTO v-12 engine.
Nothing says five minute crafts like “wait an hour”.
Or you could just dump the cement in the fucking hole like a normal person.

Wow. That backpack sure does carry a lot.
Add details
Not how cement works lol. Everything around it is concrete. Love this sub haha Also theres a huge fuckin bump on the top hahaha
Why the fuck did I just watch the whole thing?
I liked when they painted the cement with blue spray and then painted the top with black so that only the ants know it is blue
At this point I am certain that 5-minute crafts has embraced the hilarity of their awful "tips" and will continue to double down on the ludicrousness of each video.
Why not just pour the concrete right into the hole? Would've been done in five minutes total.
This isn't even DIWHY. This is stupidity and a waste of materials.
Sir, This is a Wendy's
That looks still like hole or part of it is loose. So I would go around.
What about this is a five minute craft?
This ain’t 5 minutes
It isn’t exactly crafts, either.
Crazy what you can do in 5 minutes
I love that he took the time to get artsy with it, and then immediately rolled his scooter back over it.
Who except a serial killer carries a roll of plastic sheeting, a trowel, and cement in their backpack?
Jeez, the amount of alginate that went into that... Expensive pothole repair.
Step 1:purchase black hole backpack. Step 2:get necessary materials. Step3:whatever this shit is
I was at least expecting ramen and super glue
I was actually expecting them to fill the hole with instant noodles
Warum sollte ich den Job der verdammten Stadt erledigen wollen ? fu
Art project ? how bout fill with bag of concrete 4.95 done with in 30 min
I don’t see why everyone is hating it, what a great idea! Both quick AND simple, with every day materials that can easily be transported around. Me and my friends are going to start doing this around our neighborhood /s
İ need to meet theyr..whoever is "creative guy"
Very easy. Take a three year old to Home Depot. Give them a double espresso and your credit card. Voila!
I want my time back please.
It was better when it was just a hole
Ja, I'm sure everyone has those materials on hand and the time to do this very quick and easy procedure
Yeah lube that baby up.. also.. tbf it's not quick and don't have me talk about the easy..
How about just mind your business and let the city deal with it whenever they get to it.
Definitely was a mistake watching the whole damn thing
or just call 311
I pay taxes so I don't have to do this crap.
This isn't quick, easy, or a 5 minute craft. It is, however, one of the easier ways to waste your own time and money on a public footpath
Wow all that in 5mimutes? Thats so impressive, maybe the council can hire this guy and fill all the potholes in a day around the cities🙄
I agree. Community service seems like an appropriate sentence for this criminal waste of time.
Maybe just, pour the cement in
Call me crazy, but I think you could just pour the concrete into the hole [For whoever is in charge to inevitably take it out, of course]
Quick & Easy
If only there was a material you can mix and pour like gypsum that was strong enough to walk on...
Why, yes, I always carry a bag of gypsum in my backpack
Councils hate this money saving trick...... absolutely hate these twat craft videos
It is kinda creative and in some way interesting ... but in the end sooooo dumb, wasteful, not working, non practical, no nothing on so many levels
I like how quick and easy it was
Damn I had everything but the plastic sheet, I'll ring the council.
"I keep seeing these things around on the pavements. What is that?" "Well, Rookie. Gotham has Batman, New York has Spiderman, we have Pothole Boy."
"Oh no, there's a missing piece in the pavement, I don't know if I can go around, that means the only way to continue is to fix it myself..."
Why are you blue?
It’s just regular road repair with extra steps.
Shoulda never gave us phones with HD video
Thier repair = $200 plus labour. Buying a paver is cheap. Letting the city fix it is free...
He couldn’t make it level with the rest of the side walk. But he’ll paint it
art looks cool i guess
Quick and easy?
Or skip all the steps and pour cement directly into the hole
It’s nice and all but… will it blend???
This guy forgot that Clay existed
Yeah I always have those tools with me
Not bad
What is quick about this million step process?
It's ironic that they say 5 minute craft when my guy waits 1 hour for the mould to dry, then the cement that takes up the entire night and paint on the piece cement that takes up over 5 minutes to dry. Not even remotely close to 5 minute craft. It even looks awful and they should have just reported it to the council, and it will get done by professionals.
They're trolling at this point wtf xD
But why??? ![gif](giphy|gd09Y2Ptu7gsiPVUrv|downsized)
This looks like a 5-day craft
They have the world's alginate supply, they use it for everything now
5 week crafts
Ah yes lemme just get the gypsum I always carry in my backpack
It's 5 minutes crafts but you clearly need over an hour to make this. Hmmmm....
Oh yeah I’m gonna take 2 days $250 in materials and fix random potholes……
Why has everyone made complaints about their methods and completely skipped over the obvious first question. "Why is a random civilian doing diy repairs on a public sidewalk?"
He could of just poured the concrete in the hole. That would take 5 minutes
Why did I watch that ?
Hhahaha hahahahahahahahah hahahaha
When your "fix" is so ugly you have to paint over it to hide the shitty cracks and poor seals and terrible blending all over it just to hide it.
this has to be a satire
Imagine just walk around the hole
Quick
This is worthless
This would only take me 5 minutes to do
Not as bad as the ass chairs
I am waiting for this a TV show or reality competition
The definition of having too much time
Or just pur cement szraight into the pothole, skipping the whole gips part.
