- Today, we're testing Tik Tok's car hacks
to see if they're real or bogus.
We're using the scientific method
so I brought the most scientific guy I know Jeremiah
Sheesh I'm James, and this is "The D-List".
A big thanks to auto insurance comparison site

The Zebra to help me find the best policy and rates
that are right for me.
As far as animal wrangling goes
I totally trust this lady to lead me around

to get this zebra to our office

Jeremiah you know expensive window tinting can be.
But what if I told you that you could tint your windows
with maple syrup and charcoal toothpaste.
(both laughing) - Preposterous.
- Apparently you can.
- That's a nice paintbrush.
- Yeah you put maple syrup all over it
and then you wrap it in cellophane.
- Okay. Okay then he cleans it with...
So for this hack, in order, we're gonna need paint brushes,
maple syrup, charcoal toothpaste, and saran wrap.
In this case, cling wrap. - Cling wrap.
(both laughing) - This is how
the professionals apply paint.
(all laughing) - Yeah. Oh yeah.
- So maple syrup. This poor car.
- [Jeremiah] I think you're doing great James.
- Thank you. Thank you.
I painted some closets in my youth home this weekend.
I tell you what this smells really good.
This is the best smelling glue I've ever used.
- You're probably da Vinci.
- This reminds me of my famous mid waffles.
- This is a nice coat, we've got.
- It's great. - It looks great, right?
Okay. That's good.
- And then in the video,
we're just gonna cut. - Yeah. Do you want me to?
- So you can do that? You can just cut to an hour
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah - from now in the video?
Okay. So the video is not going to be an hour?
- Probably not. - Okay.
Okay. So it has been one hour, the toothpaste
and the maple syrup have been sitting in the sun
but let's see if our windows are any darker.
- All right. I see it.
(water splashing) - This is a mess.
- We're gonna get ants. (laughing)
- No. It's not darker at all.
- Yeah, no way. That didn't work.
- As much as we wanted it to work,
as you can see this didn't make our window darker at all.
It's just an easy way to make your car smell minty
and sticky. (tape scratching)
- [Narrator] This is Tik Tok car hack: Is Busted!
- Body work. It's tough.
You get a dent in your car
all of a sudden people think you're poor.
So how do I get the dents out of my car?
Jeremiah, what if I told you you could do it with hot glue?
- Oh yeah. I've seen this before.
- Hot glue sticks. - Hot glue sticks.
And you just pull on them. - Mm hmm.
- Dang. - This is a hack
but it's also a technique that actual body shops use.
These are professional body shop panel pulling glue sticks
that we got an Amazon for five bucks.
So we got a nice dent over there on the Jetta
that we're gonna try and pull.
So now I'm heating up the stick.
- You know what we need?
We need torches like big torches.
(torch sizzling) (James laughing)
Okay. That one got pretty good heat.
- I mean, even if you don't pull the dent out,
this looks sick. - Uh yeah.
I was saying it's like Medusa. - Mm hmm.
- And really the very good hand-feel.
- (Giggling) Mm hmm. It is. Spaghetti car.
- Yeah. (all laughing)
I think you need one big yank dude.
The biggest yank you've ever done.
(air whooshing) (metal clanking)
(all laughing)
Oh, what the heck?
(laughing continues)
- Now she's got boogers on it.
So we think the Tik TOK version was a little bit of bridge.
There might've been some steps to prep the surface
that they didn't quite cover.
- We didn't even wipe the car clean . (laughing)
- Yeah. - I would say,
we just did a bad job. - Agreed.
- [Narrator] This Tik Tok car hack, car hack: Is plausible.
- As you guys saw during the window tinting portion
of this episode, Jeremiah and I are artists.
That means our heads are a little bit in the clouds
and we forget stuff a lot like keys,
but according to Tik Tok,
there is a way to start any car without a key.
Don't let any thieves know this.
(both laughing)
- [Mike] Turn the hazards on,
then push the radio button twice
and then pick any two of the windows
and hold them upwards for about three seconds.
And then you're set to just wait.
(clock ticking) - Oh my God. She worked.
(laughing) It actually worked. (laughing hysterically)
- There is no possible way. - No way.
- Why would they make keys? (all laughing)
- Yeah. That's funny, he does say, "Any car."
The Jetta is a race car.
So it doesn't have heavy things like power windows
because that would slow it down
and defeat the purpose of the said race car.
So we're going to use Jeremiah's Lexus.
So I'm gonna hold the keys up the whole time.
- Yeah. - So just so you know
we're not cheating.
- And I don't have an auto key, like an auto start anyways.
- Mm mm. - All right, here we go.
First step hazards on one, two, these two windows
one Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi.
(clock ticking)
- Yeah. Ima have to say
that hack didn't work. (Jeremiah laughing)
So no surprise there. That hack does not work.
You can't start every car by pushing a very simple series
of buttons. (Jeremiah laughing)
I think that guys just chasing clout.
(tape scratching) - This is Tik Tok car hack:
Is busted. - Jeremiah,
What's your favorite beverage?
Old timey sodas. Everybody knows that.
You talk about it all the time.
You want one that screws off? Heck no!
He doesn't want those sharp grooves cutting
up his beautiful mouth. - Yeah. Aluminum and me
don't go well together.
- Let's say that you want to enjoy a nice cold sody pop
and you forgot a bottle opener.
- Arg. - Well, if you have a car
with doors, (Jeremiah laughing)
you can do this hack.
- [Oscar] Bet you didn't know this
but the side door of your car is actually a bottle opener.
(gas hissing) I told you,
try it out yourself. (Jeremiah laughing)
- Okay. - I also want to point out
that this guy called it the side door of your car.
- Well, is that a rear door on my Lexus?
- That's the trunk.
All you need is two ice cold bottles of sody pop.
This episode is not sponsored by Coca Cola
but I think it would be really cool
if Coca-Cola sponsored us, so hit us up.
It could be D-List brought to you by Coca-Cola.
- We'd get polar bears in there on the mix.
- Yeah and we can get a polar bear
and keep him in the office. - Gosh.
- All right. So you got to get up under there.
Got a nice little area for leverage.
(air whooshing) - Oh.
- Whoa. - Oh. So easy.
It worked so good.
You wanna try? - Yeah. Okay.
I'll do a J big get up underneath there.
Oh yeah. - Oh dude. Satisfying.
What is satisfying, here, is in here.
This things are ice cold. - (laughing) Ice cold.
- [Narrator] Dang! That's word to Tik Tok car hack!
- It's so cold (voice muffled) (both laughing).
- I think that so far the side door bottle opener
hack is the most hack hack we've done.
- For sure. I didn't know about it.
- Mm mm. - It's functional
- Mm hmm. - and it's pretty cool.
- Yeah. It'll blow your friend's minds.
(Jeremiah laughing) 10 out of 10.
Speaking of hacks, go ahead and hit that like button
so we can hack the algorithm and get more views. Thank you.
We have tested all kinds of cleaning goops on this show.
Oh baby.
But what if you don't have time to wait for your goop
to show up from Wish or Amazon?
You need the goop. Now you need the goop right away.
You got some dirty nooks and crannies
that really need to be gooped.
Well, I got news for you my friend, you can make your own
and you don't even need a bowl.
You just need to get right in your car.
Some white glue.
What that is so sketchy goop.
For this hack all you need is children's glue, baking soda
(glass breaking) and contact solution.
Now they didn't tell us the ratio.
So we're just going to have to wing it.
- The recipes seemed pretty easy. So we'll see.
I think three things it's gotta be simple.
We do it just like in the Tik Tok.
Oh we have old slime. You can put this in MoMA, dude.
This is modern art.
- So we're going right in. - Yeah Okay.
We're mixing in the cup. Okay.
- It's like guacamole at the table.
- Okay. I don't think he put that much in there though.
- I don't know how much of this did he put in there?
- A splash? - Just a little splash?
- Sprinkles.
Okay. - Okay.
- Is that good? - Yeah. That's good.
- What?
- ♪ We cooking in the kitchen ♪
♪ We cooking in the kitchen. ♪ (both laughing)
- It's like more spidery - Yeah.
- but I think that's probably like based on our recipe.
- I mean- - That's pretty good.
- Yeah. - Look at that.
That's pretty good. - That's some good slime.
(both slapping) - Good slap factor.
- Look how dirty my hands are. (all laughing)
- [Jeremiah] Take a look at James' hands.
(wind howling) - They're not super sticky.
I mean, it definitely works,
but I think our recipes a little bit off.
- Definitely works though.
Look at that. - Yeah.
You can also use a paper towel.
- (laughing) Yeah.
- I think that the homemade goop is definitely dependent
on the ratios and the recipe.
But you saw just from our first batch to our second batch.
Well improved. - Yeah.
- So I don't know how much you need slime
but that's definitely that makes slime.
This should be a fun craft.
All in all I think that this is the hack that Big Slime
does not want you to see.
(tape scratching) - Damn. D-List.
My car just got absolutely hacked.
- This next one is a hack that you shouldn't do
unless you wanna break your window.
So maybe if like your dog is trapped inside or something
or your grandpa fell asleep and the doors are locked
you needed to get him out.
Maybe you do that in an emergency.
Maybe rescue workers will find this helpful.
And because it is so dangerous
this is our last hack of the day.
- All right guys, here's the Gatorade, you look.
- You drink it, proved it. - Then the Monster, see.
- See? Yep. Proved it. - Now I'm perfectly
shown right here, two hands. - Perfectly shown.
- After I just pour the Monster, and watch.
(glass breaking) - Whoa!
Did just someone inside, just like shoot a gun?
(both laughing)
- I guess the thought is
that chemical reaction is creating so much heat
it causes the glass shatter. - Yeah.
- That's the only thing I can think of,
but I drink Gatorade and Monster in my belly,
all the time. (both laughing)
- That guy could just be willing to chug chemicals.
That guy could just be like willing to be like...
Bleach. - See? Yeah.
Gasoline got it. Guy does bleach white.
- For this hack all you need is a Monster energy drink
and the Gatorade. - They're both ice cold.
- Both ice cold. (Jeremiah laughing)
I don't think this is gonna work, but let's try it out.
Okay. So Gatorade, see. (air hissing)
- Hmm Monster. See.
- (laughing) As you can see, we're perfectly shown.
Watch what happens when we put the Monster on.
As soon as it hits, okay. - Okay.
- Gatorade. (sinister music)
(drink trickling) (air whooshing)
- (in muffled voiced) Oh shit it's gonna hurt.
Didn't work. It did not work.
So monster and Gatorade does not make your window shatter.
It's not even the stickiest thing we put on the car today.
I think that's a big old fat fail.
