  • Anyone who says anything negative about this video can "zip it" because this is the most useful video I've ever seen in my entire life.

    Bless you, your entire family and all your pets. I broke my mother’s favorite jacket zipper and I was panicking all day, I can’t believe it was that freaking simple!
  • I’ve been sewing for over 50 years and think nothing of replacing a zipper, but wow, the hours and agonies I could have saved if I’d known how to fix them like this! I want to go op shopping tomorrow to find some clothes with faulty zips just so I can fix them! Great video.

    This guy deserves an Award for making this video! I've had a broken front pocket zipper on my suitcase for about 10 years. Just watched this 5 minute video and fixed it in 10 seconds! No joke...unbelievable! Don't cut out the teeth and sew it back up, like other videos suggest. Try this 1st! 💯 🏆 👏🏻

    By far, the most valuable 5 minutes I've spent on YouTube.

    Just saved me from taking my purse to The Cobbler. He looked at it and said I would need to replace the zipper pull and he would charge me $45 and have my purse for a week. This is so simple I couldn't believe it! Fixed it myself inside a 5 minutes. Thank you so much!

    This is the best video in the universe 😭 I absolutely cannot believe it is so simple. How many hours I have waisted sewing in new zippers. Incredible.
  • @heddagranli3013
    I literally love you for this, I’ve sat here for 30 minutes trying to fix a jacket (fairly expensive one as well) that’s been broken for a couple of weeks, I found your video and it took me about 3 secondes to fix it. Thank you so much

    this is what we should learn at school.
  • @rohitvaidya4690
    I love the detailed camera work, and the fact that you explained the parts and functions of such a small and seemingly simple object! Understanding the zipper and then explaining how to fix it is really a great approach to these problems 👍🏽👍🏽

    I just had my face palm🤦🏻‍♀️ moment and my jaws are still open 😲. I was just about to throw away a very cherished purse which is in excellent condition except for the zipper that wouldn’t zip. Now thanks to a kind and thoughtful soul, I fixed the zipper in under a minute and can use and cherish it for a few more years to come. Thank you very much ‘Science Sir’!! Sending you loads of blessings and a virtual hug your way. 🥰🤗🤗
  • Thank you so much!! I didnt know what to do when my school uniform's zipper broke, but i already fixed it! You saved my life! ❤
  • @hamafr555
    Moment of silence for the people who threw away all the clothes due to zipper problems
  • Tried this technique with a separated zipper on one of my bags - worked perfectly!! Thanks so much for the demonstration:)
  • @rajeshwari26911
    I immediately experimented on my sling bag chain and woohoo it worked 💯😊 I really appreciate how you explained the functioning of the runner and then accurately showed how to fix the problem 👍🏻 Thanks a lot for sharing this 🙏🏻🙏🏻
  • You just saved me from buying a whole new camera bag which can range to an easy $300-400… THANK YOU!!! Worked so effortlessly 🙌🏼
  • @Shr00ms30
    Not gonna lie I was peeved there was no audio but this has been one of the most life changing information I have gotten all day. Cheers good sir, and here I was contemplating on buying a new bag.
  • @danmcallen8902
    Started watching as a final attempt to salvage my favourite backpack, expecting it to not work. Worked first time. Took me no more than 30 seconds. Thanks for the guide 😊
  • @ivoryesther5576
    Can't thank you enough. I just fixed ny bag in 2 minutes. I'm 70 years old and never heard this tip in my life before. Blessings on you!
  • This was extremely helpful. I bought a pair of beautiful, expensive leather boots from the thrift store, one of them had a zipper separation. I decided to pick them up for really cheap due to the issue and fix them using these tips! Now I have a beautiful pair of working, functional boots that I picked up very inexpensively!
