hey what’s up guys we were back today with another explosive project now last
with another explosive project now last
with another explosive project now last night I had an idea come to me for an
night I had an idea come to me for an
night I had an idea come to me for an improvised desktop weapon so today we’re
improvised desktop weapon so today we’re
improvised desktop weapon so today we’re going to be making alka-seltzer grenades
going to be making alka-seltzer grenades
going to be making alka-seltzer grenades now the materials for this project are
now the materials for this project are
now the materials for this project are really about as simple as they can get
really about as simple as they can get
really about as simple as they can get you’re just going to need a box of
you’re just going to need a box of
you’re just going to need a box of alka-seltzer and some of these little
alka-seltzer and some of these little
alka-seltzer and some of these little plastic film canisters that used to be
plastic film canisters that used to be
plastic film canisters that used to be able to find at photo centers now I got
able to find at photo centers now I got
able to find at photo centers now I got these ones at Walmart but because
these ones at Walmart but because
these ones at Walmart but because everything’s going digital now they’re
everything’s going digital now they’re
everything’s going digital now they’re getting a lot harder to find however you
getting a lot harder to find however you
getting a lot harder to find however you can find them all over Amazon for about
can find them all over Amazon for about
can find them all over Amazon for about 50 cents each so I’ll put a link in the
50 cents each so I’ll put a link in the
50 cents each so I’ll put a link in the description to where you can find some
description to where you can find some
description to where you can find some now the reason I like film canisters is
now the reason I like film canisters is
now the reason I like film canisters is because they’re a really good size and
because they’re a really good size and
because they’re a really good size and they have a lid that just presses down
they have a lid that just presses down
they have a lid that just presses down into place nice and snug like that but
into place nice and snug like that but
into place nice and snug like that but if you can’t find any film canisters
if you can’t find any film canisters
if you can’t find any film canisters like this and don’t feel like buying
like this and don’t feel like buying
like this and don’t feel like buying them online then just try and find some
them online then just try and find some
them online then just try and find some other comparable sized container with a
other comparable sized container with a
other comparable sized container with a snap-on lid like this all right now the
snap-on lid like this all right now the
snap-on lid like this all right now the first step to making your Seltzer
first step to making your Seltzer
first step to making your Seltzer grenade is to find yourself a roll of
grenade is to find yourself a roll of
grenade is to find yourself a roll of duct tape I have a few camouflage rolls
duct tape I have a few camouflage rolls
duct tape I have a few camouflage rolls left over so I’ll be using that and the
left over so I’ll be using that and the
left over so I’ll be using that and the nice thing about a roll of duct tape is
nice thing about a roll of duct tape is
nice thing about a roll of duct tape is the tape is the exact width of the film
the tape is the exact width of the film
the tape is the exact width of the film canister so we’re just gonna need to
canister so we’re just gonna need to
canister so we’re just gonna need to wrap this around a couple times and just
wrap this around a couple times and just
wrap this around a couple times and just like that our grenade casings got a
like that our grenade casings got a
like that our grenade casings got a really cool texture
[Music]
[Music] quick update guys I actually took the
quick update guys I actually took the
quick update guys I actually took the last tape off of the roll it was just
last tape off of the roll it was just
last tape off of the roll it was just enough to wrap around the container then
enough to wrap around the container then
enough to wrap around the container then I pressed the lid of the container into
I pressed the lid of the container into
I pressed the lid of the container into another piece of duct tape and use a
another piece of duct tape and use a
another piece of duct tape and use a pair of scissors to cut around the edges
pair of scissors to cut around the edges
pair of scissors to cut around the edges and did the same with the bottom of the
and did the same with the bottom of the
and did the same with the bottom of the container as well and here’s what we’ve
container as well and here’s what we’ve
container as well and here’s what we’ve got now these white round alka-seltzer
got now these white round alka-seltzer
got now these white round alka-seltzer tablets are really what make all the
tablets are really what make all the
tablets are really what make all the magic happen and priming your Seltzer
magic happen and priming your Seltzer
magic happen and priming your Seltzer grenade is very simple start by filling
grenade is very simple start by filling
grenade is very simple start by filling your container about a quarter of the
your container about a quarter of the
your container about a quarter of the way full with warm water drop in one
way full with warm water drop in one
way full with warm water drop in one single tablet pop the lid on tight give
single tablet pop the lid on tight give
single tablet pop the lid on tight give it a shake throw it and run awesome the
it a shake throw it and run awesome the
it a shake throw it and run awesome the Seltzer grenade goes off with a bang
Seltzer grenade goes off with a bang
Seltzer grenade goes off with a bang makes a pop that’ll make anyone jump and
makes a pop that’ll make anyone jump and
makes a pop that’ll make anyone jump and the coolest thing it’s completely
the coolest thing it’s completely
the coolest thing it’s completely reusable not only that but if you catch
reusable not only that but if you catch
reusable not only that but if you catch it in time most of your Seltzer tablet
it in time most of your Seltzer tablet
it in time most of your Seltzer tablet will be salvageable as well you can use
will be salvageable as well you can use
will be salvageable as well you can use it again now this Seltzer grenade was
it again now this Seltzer grenade was
it again now this Seltzer grenade was inspired by the idea of the alka-seltzer
inspired by the idea of the alka-seltzer
inspired by the idea of the alka-seltzer rocket which pretty much works on the
rocket which pretty much works on the
rocket which pretty much works on the same principle add some water drop in an
same principle add some water drop in an

explosively separates and gets thrown
explosively separates and gets thrown into the air let’s do that one more time
into the air let’s do that one more time
into the air let’s do that one more time in real time we fill it up about a
in real time we fill it up about a

alka-seltzer tablet press on the lid give it a shake set it down and run away
give it a shake set it down and run away
give it a shake set it down and run away [Music]
and you can see just like a real grenade
and you can see just like a real grenade you get about five to six second delay
you get about five to six second delay
you get about five to six second delay alright so let’s talk for a second about
