Toilets don't get their air from the sewers. There's actually an air hole at the top of the house to let air into the pipes so that they don't produce negative pressure.

Learned that from a plumbing guy who told me that it's actually a noob mistake diy guys often make to forget that hole.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Yeah but the pipes still have poop smear on them

If I were in a fire and suffocating and somehow had a long tube in a bathroom, I think I’d stick the hose out the window and breathe that air instead.

And if I found myself:

  • trapped in a bathroom
  • suffocating due to smoke from a fire
  • i have a long flexible tube
  • no windows in the bathroom AND
  • I’m somehow not going to burn to death

Then I’ll just fucking die. It’s fine. That’s such an edge case I’m not gonna worry about it.

How about going outside/touching grass

Define fresh.

That scene bothered me so much! If there's a path to air from the plumbing vent, then those toilets would've been draining water from that room really quickly. If they were overwhelmed by the water, then the hoses wouldn't be useful for breathing

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Exactly. Getting rid of a suddenly huge influx of water is literally what toilets are made to do.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Oh fuck now I will never unsee that.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago

I'll just die, thanks.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I wonder if this actually happened to someone or this is the a case of armchair survivalism.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

What do you mean internet chud? You didnt use the toilet air gap? I expected that with my VAST knowlage, (ajusts monocle) see as for me i live on the interwebs to expand my VAST knowlage of things (400 year old roman throne squeaks ($5 ikea office chair)) its rather arbitrary that you have never seen this in action? Whats next your gonna to say you dont shoot yourself with pellets to gain bullet immunity or take showers? /S

^THIS IS SATIRE^

To be legit, im kinda intreasted aswell to know if this has actually been used!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Someone else posted firefighters working in high rises are trained on this. I haven't seen anything more plausible.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You'll likely die before you: a) remember where you put this thing, b) manage to successfully thread it far enough so you're not inhaling toilet water, c) survive the sewer gases. If the window is big enough get through, better to jump.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Regular people, sure. But some firefighters that work in cities with a lot of highrise apartments will keep tubing in their turnouts for this. Super low odds of needing it, but a couple feet of rolled up tubing is lightweight and doesn't take up much space.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Just grab your toilet tube! Keep it next to your poop knife for easy access.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Don’t forget your poop plug so the devil can’t turn you gay

Bringing a little piece of Reddit with ya.

The air would be straight carbon monoxide at best

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

Methane flavored.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

also you can drink the water in the bowl when you get thirsty

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

My dog taught me that years ago!
