DIY Perks (YouTube)

The further I watched into this video, the more I felt like a) I have achieved nothing with my life and am a bumbling fool who can barely tie his own shoelaces, and b) Matthew Perks is an actual wizard.

Just listen to the way he says things like, “I discovered that the original PS5 requires an ancient diamond found only on the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro,” and then responds to himself with, “But I realized I could replace this with a bottle cap that I’ve transmogrified into gold using alchemy and this plastic tube.” And does it while being so ridiculously likeable.

Seriously, this video is a whole emotional roller coaster, and while I won’t spoil anything, it’s a joy to realize that the two-month-long project didn’t check things off-camera before filming.

For goodness sake, unless you too are an actual wizard, please don’t attempt anything like this yourself. You will definitely die, and possibly kill others around you as you do.

Also, make sure to check out other videos on DIY Perks, because they’re just fantastic.
