hey guys we are here at the dome with
Brian brushwood from the YouTube channel
the modern Road hey man this is the king
of random Channel which means I need to
see something melt or blow up
immediately how about both you make a
today we are going to follow up our
aluminum in clear ice experiment and see
what happens if we do the same thing
using molten copper rather than molten
aluminum so what’s the difference with
copper versus aluminum so aluminum melts
at a lower temperature than copper
copper melts at almost 2000 degrees
Fahrenheit so it may call down and just
start to harden in a way that aluminum
didn’t if that does happen there are a
couple other things that may occur we
might just passed copper inside the
tunnel that we drilled into the ice that
wouldn’t be the coolest reaction but it
would still be fairly neat it’s also
possible that there will be some steam
but not the explosive amount of steam
that we saw before and it could launch
our molten copper up out of the top of
the block of ice man there are no wrong
answers in science something cool is
gonna happen it’s time to find out what
all right so where did we begin we got
to melt down to the copper right yes
we’ve got our foundry we’ve got propane
we’ve got a bunch of copper ingots and
we’re just gonna get those going
in the foundry it’ll probably take 30
ish minutes for those to get nice and
melted down we want a nice thin horrible
copper liquid which at that point it’s
gonna be glowing beautifully and while
we do that we can get a hole drilled in
our ice and get it set up under our
pouring device awesome let’s I think we
can’t start fast enough let’s go there
so the flames coming out the top they
have a green issue yeah so the cup were
melting this in has been used for
melting copper before and as it gets hit
with the high heat some of the copper
starts oxidizing oxidizing copper has a
tendency to turn green it’s not because
it’s haunted it’s also haunt okay there
that big sense yeah
[Music]
all right so how deep do we want to go
in here you want to go 2/3 to almost
three-quarters the way down through the
ice we want to make sure there’s like a
really good nest down in the ice where
the copper can stone and do we want it
to be wide at the top or thin all the
way down
we’ll go thin all the way down and then
after we have the tunnel carved into it
will widen the top just so we’re better
able to pour the copper in we don’t have
to aim quite so precisely not in its
snow I protects us I’m easily amused I
[Music]
and this block of ice which when I
picked it up it was completely clear is
now full of these little micro cracks or
tubes or something like that and I don’t
really know what they are but it looks
cool is have some hazing well it’s open
I’m just gonna drop some copper pipes
down in there well that’s wild
oh look at that there that’s amazing
very very heat conductive yeah dude the
heat goes from the liquid into the solid
copper just that passed really quickly
this is really gonna be impressive oh it
looks amazing
it’s pretty heavy copper oh that was
scary does that mean out the bottom nope
oh yeah part of the ground is made of
sawdust I got it
hopefully I can carry this with these
tongs stay close to the ground oh look
out it’s very close this rock can work
as a wedge hold our cup in all right
let’s go three two one that looked
awesome well it still does look awesome
but it’s not exploding oh I think we
just cast something is glad you’re
melting down through that block of ice
that is amazing do you see how fast it
traveled through the block Oh Steve
now it’s melted all the way down through
the bottom and it’s pouring the boiling
water out that’s that’s extraordinary if
we’re probably safe to go in at this
point are you sure no I’m pretty sure
that copper is not that hot anymore Wow
look at this that poured straight
through geez that just destroyed that
block not in the same way we were
expecting but that is nuts
oh it’s still encased in a block of ice
like I can see what we cast in the ice
is just down at the bottom we made art
[Music]
is a weird little copper ingot so wicked
copper worm
I’m just gonna set this on top of our
block of ice so hot it’s tunneling
that’s amazing
I did not expect there to be so much of
a heat reservoir yeah I still get it
melting his way through what a
surprising result that just tore through
that block of ice Luis come see on the
bottom of it yeah you can see that it
fell down and then went sideways and
just pop right out so Brian the result
you were expecting I mean there’s no
wrong answers in science but now I have
a better question all I want to know is
how far down cook with it tunnel through
so just a stack of ice I mean all the
way down that would be interesting to
test and this clear ice I have actually
comes in a block about three to four
feet high spell a follow-up I smell a
follow up would be a very good thing to
test I said that there were three
possibilities that I could think of this
is sort of one of them but even even the
one where I said we would cast copper in
the ice it’s not really what it did it
cast the copper and then it just decided
not I’m out of here and drilled its way
all the way through it’s interesting the
little hints of what was happening as it
was bubbling and cooling as it went
through but I can’t believe what a
reservoir of heat it remained even after
it tunnel through that block of ice
Brian our block of ice didn’t explode
and I actually have a little bit of
extra and what should we do with it
good question go golfing oh yeah three
that was awesome
three two one oh yeah well great
definitely feel a shock up to about your
elbows very satisfying
wow that felt great art Brian what do
you guys working on over on the modern
row we just made a perfect copy of my
co-host Jason Murphy’s face we’re making
a ballistics-gel version of his head and
we’re gonna fire projectiles point-blank
at it is going to be amazing I bet he’s
really happy that you’re using an
analogue of his head and not his real
head I mean there’s a reason I insisted
he have the fun experience of getting
his face copy very cool guys go check
out Brian’s channel the modern rogue
they update new videos every Friday it’s
a ton of fun hey guys grant jumping back
in for just a second to remind you we’re
giving away a Nintendo switch and Mario
Kart 8 there’s a link down in the
description right now we can click and
get your name on the list we’re doing a
random drawing for subscriber
appreciation and we’re also sending you
the gift receipt because if you don’t
want the Nintendo you can take it back
and get the cash instead [Music]
