Today, I learned that it doesn't matter how good you've screwed a satellite dish onto the side of your house, it won't stop the wind the ripping it off and taking half the wall with it. FML

Yeah I don't think the satellite dish is the worst of your problems right now

Even the wind was like "I've warned you countless times to get cable but you just didn't listen. Oh it's on now" haha.

You are all as dumb as he is if u can't realize it's his own fault with the install he screwed it into the siding and plywood of the house not to the actual framing of the house Which easily would have held up to the wind

Not sure why people thumbed down, I think OP completely deserved it. You don't just put shit wherever you want.

It wouldn't rip framing out if it was that easy to pull framing out the house would fall apart. If its that strong of wind the satellites mounting would bend not rip framing out

That sure would crumble your good mood.

I don't think it's how good you screwed it, or the wind it's your wall that screwed up, since half of your wall was gone with the satellite dish.

No it means it wasn't secured to the framing properly him or his satellite provider whatever genius installed it screwed into the siding and plywood sheeting around the home not the the framing of the home

Read a book, do something else until you can get a new dish...as for the wall, good luck.

Maybe it's time you start building BRICK walls.

Well, it could be a brick wall with loose cement. It's not always noticable to the untrained eye.

That's what you get for not going with cable, a massive hole on the side of your house.

Who in the name of Kim Kardashian's ass still has cable?

Idk what rock you have been under, but cable tv owns.

Cable is a JOKE DirecTV is where it's at.

You should have mounted it to the frame, now the outer paneling/stucco of your house. or just installed in on the roof. next time just have it professionally installed.

I hope you have insurance, otherwise, you'd end up with a pretty fat bill. Next time, a attach the satellite dish to a large tile and have it installed in your backyard, they never move and if they do, they're pretty cheap to replace.
