People are just realising there’s a hidden button on windows that makes chore so much easier & it’s blowing their minds

However, cleaning whizz Danielle, who often shares useful cleaning tips to her 1.9 million followers, took to TikTok to reveal that there’s a simple trick which can make the task so much easier.

“At the bottom and the top of the windows, you will notice these button that say push”, she said, sharing a clip of her window frame.

 “Push the buttons down together and pull the window over to the left.

“This extends the window more open so it leaves a lovely big gap for you to fit your arm out and clean the outside of your upstairs windows.”

Danielle demonstrated how, when the window was fully opened, she could reach her arm right through, and scrub the outside of the window with ease.

However, she warned people to be extra careful not to fall out of the window.

Once she had finished cleaning, she simply closed the window as normal, and said that this will lock the window back in place, as normal.

Danielle revealed that her fool proof method for cleaning windows without any streaks is to use a mixture of washing up liquid and white vinegar.

Then, she recommended using a window vac to suck up all of the suds on the glass.

“Tidy up the window frames with a super absorbent cloth”, she advised.

Sharing another tip, Danielle said that you should clean the outside of your windows really early in the morning, or late in the day.

“The sun will dry the products onto your windows too quickly”, and this will leave them streaky”, she said.

Danielle’s (@cleaningwithdanielled) video has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 134.000 views on the video sharing platform.

World’s longest-serving death row inmate Iwao Hakamada, 88, is ACQUITTED after spending 56 years facing execution

THE world’s longest-serving death row inmate has been acquitted more than 50 years after he was sentenced.

Former boxer Iwao Hakamada, 88, was jailed in 1968 for quadruple murder and has spent 56 year waiting to be executed.

But today, a Japanese court has ruled Hakamada was not guilty in a retrial – reversing an earlier wrongful conviction after decades on death row.

His acquittal by the Shizuoka District Court makes him the fifth death-row convict to be found not guilty in a retrial in postwar Japanese criminal justice.

Hakamada was convicted of murder in the 1966 killing of a company manager and three of his family members, and setting a fire to their central Japan home.

He was sentenced to death in 1968, but was not executed due to lengthy appeals and the retrial process.
