Yes I have tried it, but with smaller bowls and with less success than the bloke in the video.

I've never cooked anything that needs a whole garlic or even close to a whole one  :)

Well, once it's peeled you don't have to use it all at once. Put it in a jar full of olive oil and, not only will it keep for ages, but it'll also give you some garlic flavoured oil for cooking or dressings.

It did remind me of a video I saw for a single garlic clove peeler - these cost about a quid on those Hong Kong sites like dealxtreeme:

I used an whole head of garlic once to make a garlic dip for a New Years Eve Party, I had misread the recipe, I only needed one clove. Nobody went in for a second dip!!!! And the kisses at midnight were a bit wiffy. :(
