I almost have to think that was a joke, at least I hope it was. Who would go thru the trouble to film such an inept worker screwing in a ceramic lampholder without even using the proper screws- not to mention no box.

I wonder if they stopped it before he put the light bulb in and turned it on for a reason.

Thumbs down Expert Village

How can Expert Village put this garbage on line for others to think it is safe and end up starting a fire. I have seen some of their other cuts and they are just as bad.

I call it personal responsibility.

If someone decides they can learn how to be an electrician from an Internet video that is their own bad decision.

I think that these video buffoons are going to be one of the next big target for hungry ambulance chasers (and rightly so).

Doubtful. They're looking for low-hanging fruit that actually have money.

I see that all of the regulars posted a comment on that video. I just don't get it, why would you post this?...On top of being wrong, it's not that hard to just put a lampholder back up.

No, that would be 2:30, not 230 (or 14:30 if you're the military type).
