Followed instructions adding oil extremely slowly but mayonnaise didn't emulsify

I tried 3 times to make the mayo and followed the recipe exactly but had the same issue - it didn't emulsify. I used rice bran oil and wondered if this might have caused the problem?

Turns out very thick, how do you get it thinner and creamier? Also how long will it last in the fridge?

are you using olive oil it works best with veg/sunflower oil

Followed recipe and only substituted sunflower oil with vegetable oil. It did not emulsify and was way too runny. Watched online videos and transferred contents into spare empty jar, added separated egg whites and continued mixing with handheld blender. It immediately thickened and tastes amazingly fresh. So the key is as whole egg with whites.

I tried it and it was like water and then I tried it with vinegar and it worked beautifully
