Workshop_Shorts pulls a four-dollar wall anchor to breaking point
The fischer DuoHM gives way near 379 pounds in a steel test rig, not a household wall.

$4 Anchor Rated 132 lbs Tested to Failure

The anchor folds open behind a transparent plate before the chains and digital scale take over. Workshop_Shorts' only new upload, "$4 Anchor Rated 132 lbs Tested to Failure", turns a small piece of hardware into a brief, wordless strength test.
The display climbs until the anchor tears through the frame at roughly 379 pounds. That is well beyond the package rating, but the setting matters: this is a controlled pull from a steel profile. The description explicitly says drywall, hollow block and brick will produce different results, and directs real installations back to the package rating. One viewer asks for a vertical test, a useful reminder that how you load an anchor is part of the question.
The Short has drawn about 40,000 views. An older anchor comparison is carrying more daily momentum: "8¢ Steel vs $1.70 Hybrid Anchor Test" pits all-steel hardware against a plastic-and-steel design in aerated concrete. Close behind is "Why a Dead Blow Hammer Never Bounces", whose cut-open hammer reveals steel shot inside. The description supplies a wonderfully workshop-specific complication: the clear window breaks during testing and spills the shot.
Across the channel, daily viewing is close to its usual pace, while subscribers increased modestly over the week. Workshop_Shorts recorded the largest weekly view gain among the nearby DIY channels listed, with Heart and Home Crew also drawing a substantial audience. Here, the recurring attraction is hardware made visible: an anchor unfolding, a hammer opened up, and a scale climbing until something gives.
