That $200 bidet I installed flooded my bathroom floor
Saw a deal on a fancy bidet attachment. Amazon, $200. Thought I was being smart. Watched a YouTube video, felt confident, installed it in 20 minutes. First use at midnight, the hose clamp popped off. Water everywhere. Had to call a plumber at 2am. $400 later my bathroom was dry. Anyone else trust a YouTube tutorial too much?

Man that "thought I was being smart" part hit close to home... My buddy tried the same thing with a smart thermostat he found on sale. He watched a 10 minute video, thought he was good. But he mixed up the wires somehow and the whole HVAC system just shut off in the middle of July. His wife was not happy with the surprise sauna situation. Ended up costing him like $300 for an emergency HVAC guy to come fix it. Now he just pays professionals for anything more complicated than changing a lightbulb.
