Bryan's answer: "That's a good question... (thinking)... I used to stare out the window a lot at the maintenance guys and wish I could be out and work. Honestly, I'd always look out the window and wish I could go out there with those guys and cut down the trees, drive the tractor. Stuff like that.

Bryan answered: "A Ziplock bag. They had an old piece of furniture bought from a second hand store, and they installed it in the wall, like a custom thing. So we're pulling it all apart and we pull the drawers out, and we find a Ziplock bag. In it (the Ziplock bag) is a giant bra, a tube of lube, two $100 US bills, condoms and a paper towel. That was on one of our <em>Disaster DIY</em> shows, and we were like, 'Is this yours?' And she grabs the two $100 bills and stuffs them in her pocket. (laughs). It was pretty funny. So if you're buying used hotel furniture, look behind the drawers!"Bryan Baeumler12 Things You Didn't Know About Bryan BaeumlerWhat's the most shocking thing found in a client's home?

Bryan's answer: "I'm actually, surprisingly, a pretty good singer. I received a Karaoke machine for Christmas one year, and I've been practicing (laughs). Believe it or not, I'm pretty good at the flute. I went up to Grade 10 conservatory on the flute. At the music festivals, all the guys would make fun of me for playing the flute. All the guys, sitting together playing their oboes and clarinets would sit there and go, 'What a loser playing the flute.' And I'd be sitting there with 20 girls, going 'Oh ya? I'm a loser?'"Bryan Baeumler12 Things You Didn't Know About Bryan BaeumlerHidden talent?

Bryan's answer: "Actually the farmer behind us hired me to drive the tractor in bailing season. I was too short to reach the peddles on the tractor, so he'd get it in gear and I would be on the tractor, and just be going real slow. He'd point to the bales and the older kids would put it on the trailer. Every now and then, they wouldn't get to one, and I would run over a bale, (laughs), I didn't know how to stop or anything. I just knew how to steer (laughs).Bryan Baeumler12 Things You Didn't Know About Bryan BaeumlerWhat was your very first job?
