This is about the funniest thing I've seen in a long time...

If anyone is stupid enough to use a vacuum cleaner to clean your computer in anyway you'll be lucky if your computer would start up. A computer and the components inside the computer are weak or can take serious damage from static electricity. A vacuum cleaner uses static electricity in order to capture and grab dust. So if your dumb enough to use this, good luck to your computer. Anyone reading this I highly suggest you don't use it..

Wow, you've got a lot of crap in your laptop

@jthmaster done this plenty of times with many laptops. A heat sink and a fan are not going to get damaged by static.

@jthmaster Yeah, but he vacuumed the components that cannot be damaged with a vacuum cleaner. Those components don't have some wires or anything that can be damaged easily, so it's safe. Don't try to be smart.

Ha ha ha! Very annoying loud music and really silly content. I am sure you put this video here to make fun of people who make videos like this.

Hello i got some other problems with my laptop. When ever i turn it on it just starts to make a fucked up noise and i dont know what to do. I've used an vaccum cleaner to get the dust away. What i did was that i made my laptop upside down and began to use the vaccum cleaner. After that nothing helped. I dare not to open the laptop cuz i'am probaly going to do something fucked up. Please help me!

@jthmaster Seriously thank you for telling me I was gonna do that but I found out that it's dangerous.

hey man is it a new laptop which you got in your video

@ao2579 I used to be scared to do it too, but when I couldn't play MW2 for more than 10 minutes without it crashing I got pissed and did it aniway. Now I've taken it apart twice already and put it back together, and it totally fixed the overheating issues that happen over time.
