Gummy Bears vs Molten Salt


our volcano God is angry there must be a

sacrifice yes a sacrifice no sacrifice

no yeah no hey guys I’m Nate welcome

back to the workshop today we’re going

to be trying out another comment request

the idea for this video comes from Hans

versed who says that he wants to see us

put some candy gummy bears into some

molten salt so we’ve got a crucible

we’ve got some salt we’ve got our

furnace in we’ve have some gummy bears

and some gummy worms so we’re gonna see

what happens if we drop these into hot

molten liquid salt alright we’ve got our

salt let’s pour it into the crucible to

get it melting we have this baking glass

which is designed for fairly high

temperatures and it would be nice if we

could have our molten salt in it so we

can really see what’s going on through

the side of the container

however this container is designed to

withstand being put in the oven but

that’s not the same as pouring 2,000

degree molten salt onto it now as a

first test we are going to see if we can

pour our salt into this glass container

and it’s been in the oven heating up so

it’s about 550 degrees right now but I

still suspect that when I pour this in

it’s just gonna shatter there goes just

a little bit of time

[Music]

yep that’s about what I thought would

happen well now we need to refill our

all right we’ve got our molten hot salt

now let’s see what happens if we

[Music]

well it burns quickly I’m just going to

drop it in oh it caught on fire

it wasn’t even in the salt it just being

that near the cob fire hmm smells

delightful hint of burnt marshmallow

maybe beautiful let’s try a worm see

what happens it’s interesting that as it

is burning up it also cools down the

surface salt right near it and does

cause it to solidify a little bit in

places it is burning just smells like

burning sugar gross oh I’ve had like a

an outer crust and a burnt oh and the

blaming ball of burning salty sugar down

here it’s still hot enough that it’s

boiling away that’s our blob of like

five gummi bears it’s not giving up

without a fight and our salt has now

turned to this weird slush completely

liquid not completely solid take our

salt crucible put it back in the furnace

and let this melt back down three two

one that is a lot of thick smoke yellowy

gross looking smoke gross it’s like the

worst looking thing I’ve ever seen that

is so gross you want to use my tongs

it’s gonna ruin my tongs I need like

something more disposable than tongs a

small stick perfect so now the salt has

cooled down to the point where it’s

solidified but the gummy bears and gummi

worms of course are just liquefied from

the heat this is super disgusting that’s

just burning and turning black in truly

vile and they never get this painful

just smells like burned sugar really for

the most part it’s got my worst tongs

yeah this is just something that’s

straight out of a horror film that does

look pretty fantastically gross I don’t

know how well we’re gonna be able to

as this cools down it is still kind of a

gummy texture it hasn’t solidified into

something solid and maybe that’s just

because it’s still warm

it’s not hot just warm and it’s still

pretty squishy just pull melted three

solidified salt chunks though there you

have it that is what happens if you

combine gummy bears and gummi worms with

molten salt

it’s a gooey burned disgusting mess but

it is interesting to see how these

things react the sugar did light on fire

in the salt that was kind of cool to see

we would get sort of a black burnt crust

and then there would still be a little

bit of unburned gummy bear or gummy worm

down inside it but there you have it
