I cant get used to those Dyson airblade urinals. Far too messy
I never use a Dyson hand dryer. I've always thought they were a nasty idea. If it's the only option my hands will air dry.

Matthew Wagner the point is that not many places do. I know for sure that where I work there is usually a puddle at the bottom of our Dyson ones
"Paper towel industry" Conspiring to demonise hand dryers. REALLY? HAHA
Explains the contamination problem through washing and drying. *Washes hands and dries them in contaminated dryer*
Tbh all this would not happen as bad as it is if people washed there hands properly

right, there's no germs being sprayed if the hands are clean.
1:58 Since Hand Dryers manufacturers can’t prove the research wrong, they said: “Research was funded by paper 📝 towel industry.” We don’t care who or what: just prove them wrong or remove ur product from the market.

A few stores that had originally get away with the paper towels actually brought them back but kept the dryer as well.
With that logic there should be bacteria on the edges if the Paper towel dispensers were they are touched and around sink faucets that don’t often get soap On them.

I thought this the very first time I saw a Dyson Airblade.
I wash my hands use my jeans to dry and open the door with a bit of toilet roll
It’s called growing my immune system!!
Now that's going to waste money on the paper towels especially when it's busy and will be overfill the bin as well.

Bullshit. Dyson are the ONLY hand dryer to have a British accreditation which is far better than some Sky reporter waving a blue bulb about. 😂
How do they not do a study like this before they put this garbage on the market?! It's disgusting 🤢
It’s crazy how I knew this before this vid came out
Is this the video that got TikTok going crazy or what
Those Dyson airblades cost lots of monies.
Good to know. I'll just chop my hands off next time. ~PROBLEM SOLVED~

More pwr to the ppr towels, actually handdryrs saving trees but spreading germs to humn hands, how bout sanitizer after a dry
And yet we are still alive...
0:10 I thought it was going to cut the hands off...
That's disgusting!
Regardless of who doing the fundings the facts are this is not new information it’s been out here for a long time at these dryers spread bacteria and germs. As for myself and one of my daughters we always travel with homemade sanitizer poured onto baby wipes which we keep in our bag and we personally still travel with our gloves
