In one of his latest videos, he put to bed a video, which claimed we've been using the wrong side of a measuring jug completely.

Reacting to the original video, which claimed '[we've] all been doing it wrong', the TikTok user was stunned.
He said: "You're telling me for 40 years I used a measuring cup and spilt stuff everywhere I could have been doing this.
"Ain't no way!
"Alright let's give this a shot - you can clearly see whenever I mix stuff up in my backpack sprayer, I tend to spill - so let's try this out."
After demonstrating the hack successfully, the TikTok used laughed and shook his head in disbelief.

"I learn more from you than anyone I've ever met," someone else said.
A different user gushed: "You're a hero."
