TikTok cleaning hack disaster: My cautionary tale
A TikTok user attempted a cleaning hack to scrub her sink drain but accidentally flooded her kitchen. In a video that gained over 5 million views, she unscrewed the drain and poured cleaning powder onto it, unknowingly disconnecting the pipe from the sink. When she ran the water, her kitchen began to flood. The incident serves as a warning to not believe everything seen on the internet, and a plumber recommended using gloves to remove grime instead of running water to prevent clogs.
