content: "we cut things open so you don't have to" uhhhhh no. They destroy perfectly good things in the least effective way possible, then point out components and make slightly educated guesses at what things are or completely misstate what things are. For example "power banks". An example of their immense stupidity is their video "what's inside a shot put ball?". It's literally a solid chunk of metal, which they tried to cut in half using a chop saw. In this attempt, they dulled 2-3 blades and did not even succeed at cutting all the way through. I'm not against all of their videos, and some of the older ones (for example what's inside a golf ball) are interesting. I just hate when they ignorantly destroy something perfectly good and put the bare minimum of effort into educating their viewers.I guess it's just not for everyone.

content: That unfortunate trashed TV, assembled with pride in a Japanese tech assembly line, had a goldmine of good/top parts in it, and most were probably working,I STRONGLY suspect the'OLD as Lincoln'TV was working perfectly before that paid clownand his 'do as I say or else' kidabused it to oblivion.I have a similar or same model 65" Panasonic plasma, and 6+ years later it never misses a beat,with a clear NATURAL picture, not a dressy glass covered postcard with color overload shoved in your face, annoying your visionary senses.and I don't give a rats what it weighs, I didn't buy it to use as a portable traveling 'presentation monitor'.That smart mouth-product prostitute-wanker set a POOR example to the kid, his useless performance an outright INSULT to everyone interested or involved in electronics,the uncaring jar ass successfully contributed yet another piece of good kit to the landfill, whose salvaged parts could have saved MANY other useful devices.The neighbor should keep his kids away from such product slutskys in case they get injured or die on the next paid stunt,sell up and move out to another humble burb that has techs, EEs and electronics hobbyists etcI will NEVER be buying that LG OLED brand he was promoting, nor dealings with Dolby,**** them, haven't they got enough money to be resorting to bottom feeder product advertising marketing stupidity like this ?

content: Wow. People here have no sense of humor. Anyone bothered to look into why they created their channel? Apart from that, it's a freaking TV. You guys are acting like they burned down an orphanage or something.

content: Quote from: MarkS on June 07, 2017, 03:14:51 amWhen new that TV most likely cost $10000+. Even used and broken it has significant value in it. Even if you want to just show what's inside and destroy it, do it in a meaningful way.

content: Quote from: Mashpriborintorg on June 07, 2017, 06:48:35 pmIf we can trust YT view ratings, they seem to be promotingdumbass stupidity loaded with click bait videos, hosted by motormouth annoying f***tards,andback of the bustreatment for useful content by NORMAL PEOPLE withskills and talent.The younger generation are being 'encouraged' that -dumbed down- and -cool- are somehow related. They are not.The younger gen (who will soon be the next older gen) should realize (BY NOW!!!) that the current older gen are not the enemy in the war for their minds,and pockets.I've watched the 'EEVBlog teardown of a plasma TV' twice over a period,it's one of the vids that helped me pull the trigger on buying an ESR meter,which is a must have if you're in a multiple capacitor scenario and need fastgo /no go/ maybewithout pulling stuff out you may not need to.And yeah, pretty certain those plasmas cost a LOT of moola$ in their day, mine was one of the few left on clearance,the price and natural image quality was a no brainer, the salesperson insisted I bring it back if not happy!
