This Guy’s ‘Skin a Watermelon’ Party Trick Totally Rocks!

Watermelons are one of my all-time favorite fruits. It’s delicious, and it’s a natural laxative that can help cleanse our digestive system. However, one of the downsides of eating watermelons is that it can be messy, particularly if you have to deal with its rind.

Remember that video posted by former NASA engineer Mark Rober in his YouTube channel, where he made a watermelon smoothie using a drill and a coat hanger? It’s really a cool trick, although I agree that it appeared a bit creepy when he placed the eyes and the tongue on the fruit like that.

So when I saw him post another video about a new watermelon how-to guide, I immediately clicked the button to see it. This time, Rober shares with us his technique on how to skin the gigantic fruit so it would come out neat and smooth while making the rind look like a capsule.

It’s not rocket science; it really is just a trick. But, if you want to amaze your friends or guests, this will probably work.
