Boiling Hand Sanitizer Because You Said We Should


today’s video is sponsored by world of
warships what’s it like to have over a
gallon of hand sanitizer at once and
what happens if you heat it up to the
point of boiling today we’re gonna find
out guys most people only use hand
sanitizer in small quantities
fortunately they sell these refill packs
that are pretty big we want to see what
happens to hand sanitizer
if it heats up and not just a little bit
at a time a lot a bit at a time
it does say on the bottle flammable keep
away from fire or flame we’re not gonna
do that we’re gonna play around with
this we’re gonna try a few different
things with it
and in the end I think we’re gonna end
up with over a gallon of hand sanitizer
in this pot on a stove here’s the basic
idea we have about a gallon and a half
of hand sanitizer we’re gonna put that
in a pot put that pot on the stove turn
it on and see what happens so this is
hand sanitizer it’s usually used for
killing germs on your hands you just
need like a little drop about that size
it is way too cold to be doing that yeah
it does evaporate quickly there’s
actually steam there is now I feel like
I have superpowers so as it does that
this is 63% ethyl alcohol and that kills
the germs on your hands and that’s a
really good use for it but we’re gonna
be using it for some other stuff today
because alcohol is flammable before we
do the whole gallon at once let’s do a
few smaller scale things I want to see
just how flammable this is flammable
[Music]
so it doesn’t burn super quickly it
doesn’t burn super hot as you can see
we’re able to leave it on our hands for
a few seconds without causing any real
problems we just burned off some of the
alcohol so it’s now a higher percentage
of water and glycerin less percent of
alcohol
[Music]
you know those those happy birthday
candles the trick candles that keep
relighting this is worse ha
now the the alcohol is burned off this
smells amazing it’s kind of perfume me
now like I knew some hand sanitizers had
perfumes in them this is about as bland
as you can get but I think we might be
smelling the what the aloe vera and baby
well we’ve played with small amounts of
it at a time now I think we need more
[Music]
don’t cross the streams crossed don’t
cross this universe is broken now adds
chili does look cool though it looks
like my hand is just like in paste Wow
yeah it looks like you uh you resin to
your hand yeah when things evaporate off
of our skin they take heat with them and
if something evaporates faster it’s
taking more heat away alcohol will
evaporate faster than water will so
leave your skin feeling cold very
quickly even more so for instance
acetone will do that because acetone
evaporates even faster than this diluted
[Music]
all right there’s adding Heat cool and
now we run that’s over a gallon so it’s
gonna take a while before I think we see
anything but I don’t think it’s a good
idea to be in here with that just in
case so we’re gonna skedaddle and let
the cameras do their thing while we’re
waiting for that to boil let’s talk
about our sponsor for today’s video
world of warships guys this game is
freaking fun we’ve all downloaded it
onto our computers we kind of been
at all morning I kicked his butt no you
guys should play it too the game is
free-to-play it’s a great balance of
action and strategy you’ve got a naval
fleet that you’re commanding you’re
driving those around fighting other
people and they’re all based on like
real iconic historical warships which is
pretty cool as you play you unlock new
ships and just grow your fleet start
taking over dominate the seven seas the
gameplay is pretty detailed one of the
things I think is the coolest that
weather will affect the game if you’ve
got wind blowing towards you then it’s
harder to move through the water
your maneuverability has changed where
your shots land is gonna move with the
wind as well usually you have to learn
to take those things into account that’s
not just point-and-shoot like some games

eight kick in your butt we’re on the
same team we are you actually shooting
me yeah I was actively shooting at you I
know what a fire don’t like shoot me let
[Music]
it caught that sounded neat and you can
still see okay so now with the fire it’s
boiled off all of the steam so you can
just see like bubbling boiling gel
inside that pot yeah it’s now shooting
bits of flame out of the pot the ground
around it is lighting this looks amazing
also we’re lighting multiple things on
fire right now and so far at least the
fire is sparse enough that I’m not
worried about like the propane tanks
heating up or anything
[Music]
[Applause]
but as it’s boiling it is the fumes that
are actually catching fire the the
liquid itself isn’t on fire you can see
it’s just kind of resting on the top of
the pot that’s amazing
well we succeeded in Auto igniting the
hand sanitizer and nothing is spinning
out quite so far as we thought it might
so we feel pretty safe standing where we
are but now we need to do something with
all that and you guys saw how difficult
it was for us to blow out just a small
cup of this stuff
it started steaming really quickly and I
think that just so much heat from the
bottom was causing the water in this to
boil or the alcohol to boil whatever was
turning into a vapor and that was
raising up through the rest of that
gallon plus of hand sanitizer we started
seeing steam come up with these cool a
little like bubbly I know it looked like
a special effect of a swamp if the swamp
were clear kind of thing just because
it’s so thick and viscous and then once
it really got going I especially like I
noticed it because of the sound first
because you just heard this there’s like
a cartoon bubbling boiling noise I think
at this point as Callie was saying it’s
time to do something else with it so
we’re gonna try and turn off the burner
carefully lift that pot off using some
tools sit it down and then knock it over
and hopefully just have like a flood of
burning alcohol it’s right across the
dirt I love my job carrying it’s still
shooting alcohol that’s just gonna keep
what is that noise they get the bubbling
bubble bubble toil and trouble the
wait I didn’t mean very delay paint with
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
we do save things that’s a really cool
color like blue to purple to orange and
the sparks the sparks that are coming
out of this is just look at that that’s
