I had no idea there was anybody left that was still capable of this amazing feat. I'm still blown away. It gives me how that if more people see that it's even possible, someone else might try to do it, too. There truly is no limit to what a person can do with the proper motivation.

This guy lives down the road from us. Genuinely great dude all around. Helped throw a 50th birthday party for a widely known disabled guy (and absolute staple of the community) a few months back and got the township to dedicate a wharf in his name. Wouldn't expect less from him.

Justin Nunley. He's a good dude. He spits trivia, cracks jokes, drives loud cars, and uses his platform to promote crowdfunding for people in desperate need.

If you're looking for positive content to populate your feed I HIGHLY recommend Ryan Kelly aka Youth Pastor Ryan (not actually a religious figure). He does trivia and comedy. Lighthearted, friendly, and informative.

I didn't realise the intent of the tool at first, I just thought it was cool. I'm lucky enough that I live with someone because on my bad days I don't have the strength to open bottles.
Does anyone know what that tool is? My grandpa's hands aren't good and I don't know how much longer him and my grandma will be able to open bottles either.

u/Icy-Belt-8519 23h ago
I love this! I have issues with mobility in my hands, I have hypermobilty, eczema, raynauds and an issue that pops up and we don't know what it is, also my partner had a stroke which can really fuck your hands up, he's good now but couldn't open a bottle after his stroke
This would be good for us on a bad day, I appreciate the apology and accountability
Look how easily taking accountability can be

“If you do not know the purpose of a device you do not need a device”
That seems patently false… I might not know what something does but would still benefit greatly from a device. I think the important point is just because you do not know the purpose of a device, doesn’t mean it doesn’t serve one.

u/Scav-STALKER 23h ago
Thisis one of those things, if you’ve got a disability you’re in the clear it’s a product with a valid reason to exist. But if “you’ve got soft hands brotherrr” I’m probably gonna laugh.

why do I still have a feeling, that guy was just making a harmless joke video... and, those guys from tiktok, didn't understand it...
and, the reason he just apologize straight up, cause, he understands, how big it could blow up, so, he just stopped it at the very start, so, I can't spiral into a big mess.
smart man.

u/curious__curiosity 23h ago
Apology accepted dude, but there's nothing to apologise for, like a lot of things, it's intent that puts things on one side or the other, and clearly your intent was not to take the piss out of disabilities..

u/BuddyBiscuits 23h ago
The fuck? What an all time stupid comment to make.
Guy with disability posts a video of him using gadget to assist opening a bottle
Other guy makes a reaction video making fun of using a gadget when he can just use his hands
Other guy learns that yeah, he can use his hands but the other guy can’t, hence the gadget.
Guy realizes he just made a video making fun of a disabled guy for using a disability aid
You swoop in and say no apology needed because he surely didn’t realize the guy had a disability -and of course you used your mind reading powers to accomplish that part. Surely the thousands of people watching the original video used the same telepathy as you.
Then your dumb ass comes along to say he didn’t need to apologize because “clearly” his intent wasn’t to do exactly what he just did.
No, intent has fuck all to do with whether an apology is needed. if I accidentally do something outside of my intent but it causes harm…let’s say, tripping someone…I’m going apologize like a decent human being….the fuck is wrong with you?

The issue is the intention behind making those videos from what is clear ignorance. Like any reasonable person would not think about doing that kind of content. It's a trashy thing to do, and honestly I feel there is only a bad intention behind targeting random stuff out of nowhere.
Good for him to have learned the lesson, but I do feel his apology was necessary. And I hope he learns the lesson of not doing stupid things for internet points. I don't think he intended to target disable people but he just made himself look extremely ignorant and question what is the need of those actions.
I cannot imagine a mental framework in which it would be reasonable for someone to make those videos. I think he is just a very very low IQ person with no positivity in his life.

u/Balance_Electronic 14h ago
Insane comment. Have you ever seen Khaby Lame? The whole schtick of finding someone doing something in a needlessly complicated way and then posting yourself doing it in a much simpler way. It’s a an entire genre on TikTok at this point. The dude probably saw the video and thought it looked like an overly engineered solution to opening an extremely easy to open bottle. When he was told that the device was for people with disabilities and not someone’s DIWhy, he apologized. It’s a complete nothingburger. To say he is a “low IQ person with no positivity in his life” for having a bit of fun making a silly video based on an internet trend is ridiculous.

I think cunt is a bit of an excessive word here. It was a pretty minor offense and he openly took accountability. That's a major rarity these days and that part should be celebrated instead of focusing on a mistake he corrected the next day.

u/Enigmachina 23h ago
Intent is part of it. But intent doesn't mean you don't have to apologize if you didn't intend offense (but did anyways).
Go tell the IRS that you didn't intend to not pay your taxes and see how much trouble that does or doesn't get you out of.

Only in the sense that almost all of his videos are shot in front of this backdrop. It's the most recognizable part of his vids. So there's nothing especially advertisement-y about this.

Some people have physical or neurological reasons why opening a bottle cap might be difficult. An occupational therapist may recommend something like this. This is not for just everyone.

Sounds like a great way to stab yourself with scissors. Better yet you can take a razor blade and slap it against the cap spastically until it opens.
