Don't you know that a refrigerator is way too harmful to the environment for a REAL mustachian?!

Wow, that is seriously bad-ass.

I carried a sweet potato cake cheesecake (in a 10" springform pan) in my backpack this morning to work in 15 degree weather on my bike.  Does that count?

 He is bad ass. It's a damn shame he apparently doesn't know that turning a fridge on its side like that will ruin it forever.

That guy is an idiot. Not a bad ass. He's taking really stupid risks:
 - Injuring himself
 - Damaging the fridge
 - And, worst of all, spilling nasty refrigerant all over the place.

 I should've said "may ruin it," not "will ruin it," but the problem is that the lubricant oil flows out of the compressor when it's tipped. Sometimes it will settle back in if you leave the refrigerator off and upright  for a while after moving, but I have personally had one die on me from this problem at even after leaving it off for a week after moving. So the danger is particularly salient to me - living six weeks without refrigeration will do that!

Ahh. Yeah, I've never had one die after letting it drain back to the compressor, so that's why I asked.

Regardless, you missed the point of the post.

I just tried to load the video, and it said the account has been deleted. This guy is so mustachian, he is even able to cut Youtube out of his life. A true paragon!
