Looks good, but you got to use more expansive thinset next time (Mapei Kerabond Keralastic or Customs Megabond). It will not come out that easy.
-
Its is if you have an unexposed edge to lever the tile off, unlikely to see that example in real life

Loved the video. I have to replace a tile and your instruction make it look easy. Thanks for posting!

Also just to clarify my post below - On top of the mesh was in some parts grout, but in others what I think is cement. The tile that cracked had way too much space in the center of it (it was the tile in the most walked on spot in the kitchen). Do I need to use enormous amount of the glue, do I need to do multiple layers? do I need layers of different materials to make sure those tiles don't crack again?

Hello, I got the tile out, but then when I looked inside it wasn't just grout. There was grout put on top of a metal mesh-like thing (which I believe is there from how things were done few decades ago). From what I see I think I understand why my tiles cracked. Question is what do I do when the space between the mesh-like thing and where I need my tile is about 1.5 cm?

he doesnt say what the tool is that he uses to scrape the sub floor...what is that?

step 1. remove grout
step 2. chip a corner off tile (rather than smash the middle with a hammer)
step 3. chisel out remaining tile and adhesive
step 4. set new tile
step 5. grout and clean

Just replaced 3 tiles after watching this vid. I had to hit them with the hammer more than once but it was easy.

You didn't mention that grouting should wait until AFTER the original thinset has dried & hardened...at least overnight.
