Top Comments of this video!! :3
I canât like this video enough!!! I am now happy dancing (the Macarena) in my kitchen because my favorite hoodie is zipped and staying zipped after a year and several months of being swept aside. Just a couple squeezes with the pliers is all it took. Donât give up guys and please for the love of happiness, share this with everybody. The longing of this very moment could have been not so longingly long if someone out there shared it with me. But I am forever grateful the moment happened. God bless

Was looking for multiple hours for a new jacket because the zipper on mine broke and I was just going to buy a new one. Watched this video for 2 minutes and using the pliers to make sure the zipper caught the teeth fixed my issue (zipper was remaining open when I zipped up the jacket). Took me 5 seconds with the pliers, saved me $300 and saved the planet many materials. Thank you.

Thanks for a video that spared me a lot of panic, frustration, and probably damage. I used the graphite pencil hack and a rather gentle application of plyers on the stuck zipper on my kinda old, and unused for awhile briefcase. The zipper was really stuck. Now, I keep a couple of pencils on hand should I need to troubleshoot again.

Actually, to prevent damage to the zipper teeth, you put on a new slider at the BOTTOM, not the top. That requires that you do a little seam-ripping, place it on the bottom, pull it up, closing the zipper, and then SEW (or staple well) the bottom stopper closed again. Fabric glue at the bottom can work, too. Just make sure you have recreated the stopper at the bottom.
