  • how do I remove the ear buds from the iPod? duh

  • My earbuds are in my ears every month xD

  • Man lastnight I was drunk and called bullshit on this. Then I found out this worked by performing the maneuver tonight.. Hahahahha.. Maneuver. .. my earphones work as well as they ever did.

  • You would think that cleaning your earbuds is common sense. I guess not.

  • less that 15%???

    that too extreme keeping them at 40-50% percent will not make you deff

  • i once met a "friend" who said:"Ey what you listening to?" He picked my earbuds put em in his ears and after they looked like orange/yellow grape-things

  • Less than 50 percent, yeahhhhh not gonna happen...........

  • i love how the whole sink scene was fake xD

  • Rofl the hearing loss thing is soo true. I almost failed my hearing test at school from too much music

  • Your not sopposed to stick qtips in your ears, only on the outside.

    Someone auctally died from that .

  • @gta1172 lmfao idk y but i coulndt stop laughing when i read that!!!

  • That guy is scary. D:

  • that guy is ugly as shit

  • iPod has its maximum volume, and it has been proved that if you listen to you iPod at 100db for one hour, then your ears need to rest for ten hours! Apple can`t damage your ears, don`t be fooled!

  • If it's too Loud you're too Old.

  • hey did any one catch the last fact about hearing loss?

  • i dont listen to my ipod EVERY day

  • @YourWiseSage i know i just plug it in to my stario and turn it on

  • @YourWiseSage then you should start

  • NEVER, EVER, SHARE HEADPHONES!

  • @johannisco you'll be cooler

  • @FromThe3PointLine oh shit shoulda told me that earlier.....

  • i always hear music loud not at 50% i wish the ipod doesn't have a limit for volume

  • @alexnaruzoom you'll regret it when you get older....

  • Why is people saying Howcast is out of ideas? You know, they are requested by their fans from their website.

  • this advice is applicable to nearly any kind of earbuds. not just the ones that come with your ipod. what are you a bunch of apple fanboys?

  • wearing replacible pad on the earbuds helps as well

  • Any doctor will tell you not to stick Q-tips in your ears, it packs down the wax, which gets against your eardrum, huh?

  • 50% is too loud i have the songs on itunes set to 100%

  • Lol I listen to it at between 3- maybe 10%. Unless outside. Then 40%.

  • buy one...........

  • oo well i guess im going deaf when i grow up cuz wtf is listening to music under 50 %,,..u cant hear shit...u can hear a lil above 75% and the words at 82% or so

  • You must have terrible hearing (probably caused by the loud listening) or terrible earbuds. Either that or you illegally download your music and get shitty versions.

  • You must be listening to that crappy screamo stuff, 'cause any DECENT kind of music won't need to be above 50% to be enjoyed. Either that, or you're hearing is bad probably from ALL THE LOUD MUSIC!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

    You're probably the kind of person who's gonna drive down the street and break everyone's eardrums for 5 miles from the stereo being on FULL BLAST!! If you hadn't turned it so loud, you wouldn't need to turn it so loud. Why have it so loud? What's the point of turning it up so loud?

  • @thegamerguy Why does everybody think that screamo is loud music? Its really just a personal problem. If it is too loud, turn the voleume down. Anybody with ANY common sence would know that. :]

  • the louder it is the more tones you can hear. if you listen to your songs at 30% good luck hearing bass. it makes the subwoofers pound

  • True, but bass is bassically (Yes, that was a joke, just because I know SOMEONE is gonna call me on that one) just for more of a feel, like vibrations, so if it's lower it's just less vibrating feel. But yes, I do understand what you're saying, and you're mostly right.

  • yeah it is bad for you but apparently i have until 2012 :P haha

  • @Thegamerguy101 calm down dear

  • @fracktar

    What do you mean by that?

    I'm totally calm...

  • your origional comment looked like you needed to calm

  • Ohhh

    I see

    I just hate ppl who break my eardrums while I have my windiws up a mile away from the stereo

  • @Thegamerguy101 Yeah my ears hurt if I go past 39! But what I have heard from my cousin. Kids today put the volume so high because of 2 reasons. 1. So they won't hear what's going on around them like people's conversations. 2. To hear the hq music that you get from putting the volume to low and pushing the earbuds in your ears...I tested it and they're right! Higher sound quality and I can hear just the music nothing else! That's what they want. But they can't find a product that does that!

  • My ipod volume NEVER goes above 50% as it is... any higher, and my ears hurt within 10 seconds of doing so, and I have to take them out from the pain that's happening to my ears... Doesn't that happen to anyone else?!?!

  • we just have good hearing and sensitive ears

  • is it safe to use ipod earbuds on other objects like a laptop? because my bro has been using my earbuds on his computer and im kinda uncomfortable.

  • Of course it's safe! Why wouldn't it be?

  • Yeah it's fine. Just make sure he doesn't turn up the volume too much.

  • They're pretty cheap, so don't keep the ipod earbuds.

  • lol mine r YELLOW!!!!

  • They get stinky after a while too! LOL

  • full volume no stop my ears are fine after 4 years of hardcore music!!!!!!!

  • WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?!

  • @INITTYLER You most likely don't notice your hearing loss, and you probably speak louder than you used to. Quite funny that you have to scream your comment with all those !!!!!s.

  • @darkmatter88 lol

  • @INITTYLER lol..... justin bieber? XD

  • @INITTYLER ud think your ears are fine. from full volume music 

  • @INITTYLER 4 years is definitley not a long time, bro. Wait till you're old.

  • @INITTYLER Looks like your level of coherency has suffered a substantial blow though.

  • Just buy better ear buds. The ones that come with the ipod suck.

  • I agree)))

  • no mames shes mamadas eso asta al mas pendejo se le ocurre ¬¬

  • seriously?

  • Maybe we were expecting something that required more common sense to think of. We all know how to wipe something off, but, for example, getting the shit out of the cracks would have been a little more helpful.

    Asshole.

  • Fuck hearing loss. By the time I'm 40 years old, I'm sure technology will be advanced enough for hearing aids that you can't feel to be around.

  • I believe this video may have revolutionized our planet.

  • totally

  • Comment removed

  • How the hell was this helpful at all? We all know how to clean something (Soap and Water)

  • I was hoping for explosives tho.. =[

  • 50%, lol imma be def as hell when i get old

  • I know! I'm only 17 and I'm suffering from very minor hearing loss already. It's just that when I'm listening to my iPod, I can't hear it at less that 50% because I'm in louder places like sidewalks or buses.

  • @emotive1591

    Most earbuds or anything that comes with them would suggest listening only loud enough to where you can still hear a person talking to you, and if outside noise is still bothersome you could get earbuds that are designed to block out the noise. But you should still keep the volume down depending on how long you keep them in for.

  • Next Episode: How to wipe your ass clean

  • Exactly! I was thinking the same thing. I can't decide if this video "How-to" was a joke or if it's serious. I can't imagine there are people who are so stupid that they need a public service announcement like this, but then again, we did just elect Obama ...

  • whoa for all this trouble just wear out of the ear headphones!

  • holy shit, thanks so much. i've been looking for a video that can teach me how to rub a cloth on ipod headphones for almost all my life

  • seriously howcast is fucking gay they tell you how to do things that people should know the only people that wouldnt know are total idiots..oh and by the way the hearing loos bit at the end its not "linked" its one of the MAIN FUCKING CAUSES BECAUSE ITS GOING RIGHT INTO YOUR FUCKING EAR after 2 minutes of the lowest possibe that you can hear it ,it still can cause damage fucking howcast is dumb

  • emzx, calm down it's just a video god ... and your still to young to use those words :D

  • Hey! That's the beatbox guy!

  • yes you could keep your ears clean. but dont use q-tips! it could damage the ear drums and lead to deafness

  • are you serious? you made a video telling people to just wipe clean the earbuds with a cloth? how stupid do you think we are? are you gunna tell us how to turn on the ipod next? or maybe how to charge it? wow... that would be deep

  • well, obviously, some stupid people requested it

  • umm are you supposed to touch the gray part or no? because that part is messed up with me, i go through about 2 ear buds a month

  • OMG thank you!!!! i always wanted to know how to do that.

  • im so glad this shit is in hq

  • if they know you'll get hearing loss then why do they put so much volume on them?! LMAO!!!

  • i fucking hate earbuds.

  • that guy looks like athene with short hair
