I'm all for leaving the door open but this is next level stuff right here. I'm not even mad. I kinda wanna have a drink with this guy.

Hopefully those windows open for some exhaust. Doesn't look like a fun sit on a hot summer day!

Aren't we talking about @Fred19Flintstone's magic poo?

Why do the administrators allow posts in the wrong forums?  For example, there are many off-topic posts in the EggHead Forum instead of the Off Topic Forum.

Quit your sniveling and get used to it. EGG on newbie.

Thanks to fishlessman and 4Runner for answering my question. It’s too bad the Big Green Egg company sullies its reputation by allowing posts in the wrong forums.

Lol!  Ok, who is this.  Sullies.  Only Nola talks like that.

Agreed.  Not sure how they'll ever recover...

Seriously? Do you really have nothing better to worry about? Lighten up, Francis.

Tweev's first post was similar to this. Let the hilarity ensue.

How would you know that?

SemolinaPilchard

Because I saw it when it was posted.

This is offensive to me, give credit where it is due.  Many people have worked countless late hours to sully this so called reputation.  BGE hasn't contributed at all.

This is actually a clever invention. The cause of most deaths in a fire is smoke inhalation, not the fire itself. Putting the tube in the toilet allows the user to breath "fresh" air while the water in the toilet blocks the smoke from going into the toilet pipe. This would be useful for people trapped on the floors above a fire where all of the smoke has risen. You could just use any rubber hose. Science

@MaC122. You know the rules. Pics or it didn't happen.

I was thinking great for when the popo shoots tear gas into your house.

Or for when the crystal meth fumes get a little too strong.

The siphon effects actually draws the bowl water level much lower (as well as the capillary action of thirsty cats) - we've all seen that.  The fill valve mechanism has a diversion of a fraction of the fill water into the bowl to bring it up to the highest level, which like stike said, is the top of the siphon arch.  (troll troll troll)

One of the two main reasons snorkeling tubes are so short is that when exhaling one is not forcing all the CO2 out of the tube. Eventually the CO2 builds up and breathing becomes very difficult if not impossible.

Not sure how much time a rig like that affords one. Likely better than nothing tho.

Hypercapnia is a real issue for snorkelers, but in this case you can exhale through your schnowz

I don't know how many of you have replaced a toilet, but that air is anything but fresh...

Lends credence to the "I'd rather die than..." expression.

Doh! Of course.

I think it would be better tho if that device included a check valve so that folks could inhale/exhale thru the tube mouthpiece with the exhale gasses being vented outside the tube not far from the mouthpiece. 

Having to use one of those you would already be in a rather panic-y situation and some folks might be too stressed to try and keep inhaling thru the mouth and remembering to ONLY exhale thru the nose.

MaC122

@HeavyG you could exhale through your nose and I agree with you that people would not think calmly enough during a fire to do that. I probably would have died but now Ill know "in through the mouth, out through the nose". Dont flush the toilet.
