yo excellent job dude.... samurai mike has a challenge.... check out samurai mike 27 phone book rip... he challenges anyone on youtube to top him.... he has more vids and will be posting more challenges soon... samurai mike rock and roll!!
I ripped a phone book in half the hard way the first time i tryied, last time i faild, and ppl at work make fun of me, now im gonna use this style to show em. LOL. but really i was alot stronger before.
Thanks a lot, it worked. I don't know why I'd need this skill but damn, thanks anyway.
I used a thick "Yellow Pages" book. I didn't bother with the front covers, they were too slippy for me. Once I'd done the t-shape and cracked it there was still a lot of effort needed. Cracking it was the easy part.
Still, I'm proud. I'm only 15 and can't lift a weight to save my life.
If you can tear up a bit and it stops means that you are on the right track in managing to rip it open. Sometimes you just need to regrip to be able to continue the ripping. ONe important thing when trying to initiagte the rip is to hold hands tight until the rip on the book is completely through top down.
Don't forget to use the increased leverage you got with thicker books. The rounded slope you get is wher you put this leverage onto with your knuckles/fingers when rotating the palms inwards.
I just watched this video literally 5 minutes ago. I went and found an old phonebook lying around here and I was able to tear it in half! I'm a chick and I'm not that strong! It can totally be done by anyone!!
I seriously just did this. It took me like 10 minutes. I also used gloves with grip on them. But I did it. And I am satisfied. And I am fatigued. And I am parched. I am a soldier.
Maybe you should rest a little bit and watch the movie again. You arent supposed to force it too much, if you have to use lots of force there is a chance that you do something wrong.
this is really cool i waited when we got a new phone book with the maikl and when we had a new one i ripped it and i was like : jippy but then my mom searched for it and i said look at this here it is cool he i can rip a phone bookj but now im grounded i have to stay inside the house for a week and we can call people cause we have no phonebook
i wanna challenge all of my powerlifting guy friends to this and then watch them be like ughh! how do you do it? i guess im not strong enough....and then i will do it and they will become humiliated....
I guess I answered my own question about practicing, but...
I tried my first one not too long ago, and i got it. now I bet i can rip just about any phonebook, and i DO know I can show my friends and not make myself look stupid! (like i did before:) Well, that's it! After many hours of practice I gave it a shot with "The Challenge" , and i beat it! yeah!
Practice, practice, practice! I didn't get it my first try, so I practiced this technique with a 300 page book. Soon after, I finally got it to work. I even re-ripped it, so really I ripped a 600 page book! Now, when I get a good-sized (but not too big of a) phonebook, I think I'll be ready for the challenge! Thanks for the techniqoue-clarification video!
how do u twist it once you have the T shape in the pages??? I can pinch it like youve got it but when i try to rip it, the first page rips and then i lose my grip. Do u rip out to the left and right or down towards you while holding the other part away from you? im gonna try again after my hands stop burning =P
Yes, that noise was something I couldnt do anything about. I tried both in linux and windows still same noise. Now i got another computer ant its alol fine now.

after bending and pinching and getting the T shape, how do you twist it? towards you or to the sides?
powerpc1227 4 years ago
how do u twist it once you have the T shape in the pages??? I can pinch it like youve got it but when i try to rip it, the first page rips and then i lose my grip. Do u rip out to the left and right or down towards you while holding the other part away from you? im gonna try again after my hands stop burning =P
powerpc1227 4 years ago
Twist it, your index fingers knuckles go upwards and sometimes forward a bit and the pinkies go down and in.
Regrip if it opened up but dont opens up more, make sure that the pages are tightened all the time you regrip. That is easier
