Everyone’s favourite hydraulic press is back at it and making fruit salad

There are some YouTube channels that defy all media logic in terms of what’s good content on the Internet, and the Hydraulic Press Channel is one of them.

The channel has a simple concept and simple execution. It has only been around since October 2015, and has already amassed over 300,000 subscribers for its object-crushing-videos.

The always enthusiastic Finn behind it merely takes everyday objects and subjects them to crushing via a hydraulic press and films it. It sounds pretty basic, but the resulting mashing is oddly satisfying, and its appeal is similar to those ‘Will it Blend?’ clips.

Hydraulic Press Channel’s latest video tackles an assortment of fruit and crushes himself a nice salad, along with some whip cream to top it off.

“You won’t need any of that slice and dice shit here, just press,” the Finn explains after mashing a watermelon.

It really is true that happiness can be found in the simplest things in life, like crushing stuff.
