I'm watching it and trying to figure out if it's like a parody video or a serious recommendation?

The comments on the video are super weird as well. Can someone please tell me I'm not going crazy and that the majority of the people in the YT comments have been huffing solvents / aren't real?

Also fishing for any good 'best way to clean your drivetrain' videos that are less weird and potentially wrong

Indeed, it just keeps things clean! “Magical” was meant ironically, this video shows a similar approach with another product. Oversimplification (where it’s not needed, as cleaning, degreasing and lubricating are quite straightforward things…)
