About

Cyril Schreiner's Orbeez Flood Video is a viral video by YouTuber and TikTok video maker Cyril Schreiner in which he fills his bathtub with Orbeez, a type of bead that expands in water, and floods his house and neighborhood's plumbing system when he attempts to drain the tub.

Origin

On February 21st, 2020, TikTok user Cyril Schreiner posted a series of videos in which he fills his bathtub with Orbeez. When he attempts to drain the tub by pulling the stopper, the beads begin coming out of his toilet and sink. In an attempt to force the beads down the drain, he pours salt in the sink, which causes the bathroom to flood. Later, when Schreiner goes outside, he discovers beads coming out of the neighborhood system (clips below). The initial post received more than 25 million views, 2.3 million hearts and 6,600 comments in less than two weeks.
