Glowsticks In a Blender – So Satisfying


glow sticks have two chemicals into and
when you combine them they start putting
off some good light today we’re gonna
see if we can activate that in a
[Applause]
in the past we have done a few pretty
fun experiments with glowsticks and
we’re back at it today and we also have
what you may recognize as a very strong
industrial-strength blender we’re gonna
see what happens if we take a few
different types of glow sticks and throw
them into this blender I’m just curious
to see how well it activates hell it
chews through the plastic and what this
glowing liquid looks like as a swirling
around we’re gonna get some slow-mo
footage and it’s just gonna be a lot of
fun here’s what we’re gonna try we’re
gonna put some glow sticks in the
blender we’re gonna try heating up the
glow sticks in a microwave and putting
them in a blender and then we’re gonna
add a little bit of our secret
ingredient to see if we can get some
extra brilliance let’s start off with
just a single glow stick and see how
this works
I’m just gonna set that in there make
sure my lid is nice and well attached
and well I think the soup button looks
like the one to go for let’s try that
man that is hitting the side of the jar
with a lot of force it’s just like
flinging I’m just watching this level in
it it’s just like spraying and flinging
the glowing fluid out where it is now
most of the glow stick is still intact
just got hit and like did a triple
pirouette in the air I’m sure there’s a
skating move named for that but it’s
just fun to watch how exactly gets beat
up normal speed you can’t tell it’s just
lots of vibrating shaking and there’s
green on the walls but it’s cool
so after cleaning out our blender the
first blend our blender has now like
been stained green and I’m pretty sure
it’s actually even glowing a little bit
so it glows a little bit and then if I
hit it with a black light this thing is
just imbued with glowstick fluid at this
point it’s actually even brighter and
greener in real life than it is on
camera and it looks pretty bright on
camera we have tried several different
things to clean this off we’ve tried
alcohol
we’ve tried soap we’ve tried cleaning
oils and so far nothing has done
anything to it okay one worked pretty
good I want to try taking that up to
like three or four at once and see how
I get a kick out of that that’s a great
avatar looking blue right there
[Music]
oK we’ve got some of these glow
bracelets and I’m gonna try throwing
them in the microwave before I toss them
into the blender see if we can get a
little bit of extra brightness out of
them
so I accidentally bent this one and it
did break a little bit but it hasn’t
spread everywhere so I think we’re still
it’s cool like it activated them all
while they’re still like stick shaped
and then after it activated them it just
started tearing them apart okay the only
solution now is to just keep doing this
and see what kind of colors we can get
once you can’t see anything inside
oh that is right there’s like vapor
coming out it might just be atomized
glow stick or something new thing we’re
gonna try now as I’ve been washing out
the blender with hot water I’ve noticed
that sometimes the hot water is making
it glow a little bit more intensely so
now we’ve filled the blender with a
little bit of that hot water we’re gonna
try putting the glow sticks in that and
then just see what happens
one more thing we’re gonna try I’m gonna see what happens if we just drain all
see what happens if we just drain all the liquid out and so we just have the
the liquid out and so we just have the liquid and the glass vials in the
liquid and the glass vials in the blender rather than the whole glowstick
blender rather than the whole glowstick including the plastic will definitely
including the plastic will definitely break more easily but I don’t know if it
break more easily but I don’t know if it will look cooler
and I think that was in I think it shattered all of them instantly should
shattered all of them instantly should look good good in slow-mo though holy
look good good in slow-mo though holy moly
moly we’ve got a little bit more time right
we’ve got a little bit more time right now we’re gonna do some more Q&A you
now we’re gonna do some more Q&A you have asked some questions we’re gonna
have asked some questions we’re gonna try and answer some of them for you we
try and answer some of them for you we have a question from Josh Bailey at
have a question from Josh Bailey at Cornish boy saying would you ever do a
Cornish boy saying would you ever do a tour of your shop and video editing area
tour of your shop and video editing area yeah I’m doing a tour of our shop would
yeah I’m doing a tour of our shop would actually take very very little time
actually take very very little time we’ve got the main workbench area and
we’ve got the main workbench area and then we’ve got the kitchen area and
then we’ve got the kitchen area and those two areas are about 8 maybe 10
those two areas are about 8 maybe 10 feet apart from each other so it’s more
feet apart from each other so it’s more of just a swiveling the camera the
of just a swiveling the camera the editing is not done at the same place
editing is not done at the same place the editing we’ve got several editors
the editing we’ve got several editors our cameraman Mark he does the first
our cameraman Mark he does the first edits of most things he takes all of the
edits of most things he takes all of the many hours of footage that will send him
many hours of footage that will send him to get four video he’ll condense that
to get four video he’ll condense that down into just like a half hour version
down into just like a half hour version taking out all of the times where I
taking out all of the times where I messed up what I was trying to say or I
messed up what I was trying to say or I cut myself off camera and didn’t want to
cut myself off camera and didn’t want to show that and stuff like that so he’ll
show that and stuff like that so he’ll cut that down so you can follow the
cut that down so you can follow the storyline and then he’ll take that
storyline and then he’ll take that version and they’ll send it off to one
version and they’ll send it off to one of our other editors and we have like a
of our other editors and we have like a team of other editors we’ve got editors
team of other editors we’ve got editors in multiple parts of the United States
in multiple parts of the United States and we also have some editors in the
and we also have some editors in the Philippines and so there are several
Philippines and so there are several different editing stations and
different editing stations and workstations but yeah toward the studio
workstations but yeah toward the studio pretty pretty quick to show you all that
pretty pretty quick to show you all that does it take you long one room than the
does it take you long one room than the other all right we’ve got another
other all right we’ve got another question here and I’m very sorry I’m
question here and I’m very sorry I’m probably going to pronounce your name
probably going to pronounce your name wrong
wrong Gabrielle punched in at Gabe punch he
Gabrielle punched in at Gabe punch he asks how likely would you guys make a
asks how likely would you guys make a second channel of like bloopers during
second channel of like bloopers during the project because in your videos you
the project because in your videos you do small versions of bloopers at the end
do small versions of bloopers at the end but why not make a channel full of them
but why not make a channel full of them so like a behind the scenes or blooper
so like a behind the scenes or blooper Channel I don’t think that’s anything
Channel I don’t think that’s anything we’ve considered doing in the past but
we’ve considered doing in the past but it’s not a bad idea there are often
it’s not a bad idea there are often things that get cut out in the final
things that get cut out in the final videos because we feel like it would
videos because we feel like it would disrupt the flow it doesn’t really match
disrupt the flow it doesn’t really match the tone that we’re going
the tone that we’re going for or it’s just not helpful to the end
for or it’s just not helpful to the end of the project and I don’t think we’ve
of the project and I don’t think we’ve really looked into building a second
really looked into building a second channel one of the main problems is that
channel one of the main problems is that although we have several editors they’re
although we have several editors they’re pretty busy as it is we put out five
pretty busy as it is we put out five videos a week and so putting together
videos a week and so putting together enough videos to fill a second channel
enough videos to fill a second channel on top of that would we’d probably have
on top of that would we’d probably have to hire new editors just for that and so
to hire new editors just for that and so it’d be tricky so well I’m not gonna say
it’d be tricky so well I’m not gonna say no for sure it’s not on the top of our
no for sure it’s not on the top of our to-do list guys that’s it for today but
to-do list guys that’s it for today but there’s always more for you to see that
there’s always more for you to see that box at the top will take you directly to
box at the top will take you directly to our last video you should go check that
our last video you should go check that out the other box will show you what
out the other box will show you what YouTube thinks you should be watching
