aluminum foil and some drain cleaner sodium hydroxide we’re going to mix

sodium hydroxide we’re going to mix

sodium hydroxide we’re going to mix these two together with some water and

these two together with some water and

these two together with some water and produce some hydrogen gas once that

produce some hydrogen gas once that

produce some hydrogen gas once that chemical reaction is started we’re gonna

chemical reaction is started we’re gonna

chemical reaction is started we’re gonna take this 36 inch balloon put it over

take this 36 inch balloon put it over

take this 36 inch balloon put it over the top capture that hydrogen gas tie it

the top capture that hydrogen gas tie it

the top capture that hydrogen gas tie it off and then we’re going to shoot it

off and then we’re going to shoot it

off and then we’re going to shoot it with this modified round as a sparkler

with this modified round as a sparkler

with this modified round as a sparkler in the end we’re gonna see what happens

in the end we’re gonna see what happens

in the end we’re gonna see what happens when we light this and stick it in the

when we light this and stick it in the

when we light this and stick it in the cannon we should be able to hit those

cannon we should be able to hit those

cannon we should be able to hit those hydrogen balloons and cause a big ball

hydrogen balloons and cause a big ball

hydrogen balloons and cause a big ball of fire at least that’s the idea

of fire at least that’s the idea

of fire at least that’s the idea now I got a request from tuna bug to

now I got a request from tuna bug to

now I got a request from tuna bug to make some kind of a flaming arrow so I

make some kind of a flaming arrow so I

make some kind of a flaming arrow so I thought with the sonic dad team there’s

thought with the sonic dad team there’s

thought with the sonic dad team there’s no more perfect opportunity than what

no more perfect opportunity than what

no more perfect opportunity than what we’re about to do today you guys

we’re about to do today you guys

we’re about to do today you guys remember how this works we’re gonna take

remember how this works we’re gonna take

remember how this works we’re gonna take some drain cleaner fill up a glass jar

some drain cleaner fill up a glass jar

some drain cleaner fill up a glass jar and then put in some aluminum and add a

and then put in some aluminum and add a

and then put in some aluminum and add a little bit of water this is going to

little bit of water this is going to

little bit of water this is going to create a reaction that generates

create a reaction that generates

create a reaction that generates hydrogen gas we’re gonna cap it with a

hydrogen gas we’re gonna cap it with a

hydrogen gas we’re gonna cap it with a balloon and collect all that gas in the

balloon and collect all that gas in the

balloon and collect all that gas in the balloon and I brought some thick welding

balloon and I brought some thick welding

balloon and I brought some thick welding gloves because this jar is gonna get

gloves because this jar is gonna get

gloves because this jar is gonna get extremely hot Jake why don’t you take

extremely hot Jake why don’t you take

extremely hot Jake why don’t you take this you can just go ahead and sprinkle

this you can just go ahead and sprinkle

this you can just go ahead and sprinkle in a bunch of sodium hydroxide intellij

[Applause]

[Applause] [Music]

[Music]

[Music] aluminum seems to be the limiting factor

aluminum seems to be the limiting factor

aluminum seems to be the limiting factor so we’re just going to put in more other

so we’re just going to put in more other

so we’re just going to put in more other than less that’s going to be enough to

than less that’s going to be enough to

than less that’s going to be enough to fill up our balloon airframe alright

fill up our balloon airframe alright

fill up our balloon airframe alright let’s add some water

let’s add some water

let’s add some water [Music]

[Music]

[Music] not going to be an immediate reaction

not going to be an immediate reaction

not going to be an immediate reaction that should take off here in about 30

that should take off here in about 30

that should take off here in about 30 seconds now we’ll just watch

seconds now we’ll just watch

seconds now we’ll just watch [Music]

look at that reaction that is amazing

look at that reaction that is amazing it’s bubbling at least 3/4 of the way up

it’s bubbling at least 3/4 of the way up

it’s bubbling at least 3/4 of the way up the jar and I’m sure that’s getting

the jar and I’m sure that’s getting

the jar and I’m sure that’s getting extremely hot right now okay let’s take

extremely hot right now okay let’s take

extremely hot right now okay let’s take it off whoo that’s hot it’s very hot

it off whoo that’s hot it’s very hot

it off whoo that’s hot it’s very hot [Music]

yeah so check this out

yeah so check this out it floats you got a boomerang balloon so

it floats you got a boomerang balloon so

it floats you got a boomerang balloon so there’s about 2 minutes after I’ve

there’s about 2 minutes after I’ve

there’s about 2 minutes after I’ve capped it off go ahead and feel that

capped it off go ahead and feel that

capped it off go ahead and feel that yeah that would be hot to the touch

yeah that would be hot to the touch

yeah that would be hot to the touch without gloves so if you don’t want to

without gloves so if you don’t want to

without gloves so if you don’t want to hold that it’s very hot right now come

hold that it’s very hot right now come

hold that it’s very hot right now come check it out Ritchie yeah that’s what

check it out Ritchie yeah that’s what

check it out Ritchie yeah that’s what 110 maybe mm-hmm it’s very warm right

110 maybe mm-hmm it’s very warm right

110 maybe mm-hmm it’s very warm right now so when the hydrogen is flowing into

now so when the hydrogen is flowing into

now so when the hydrogen is flowing into the balloon it’s actually very very hot

the balloon it’s actually very very hot

the balloon it’s actually very very hot and as we cap off the balloon and it

and as we cap off the balloon and it

and as we cap off the balloon and it cools down the gas drinks and so our

cools down the gas drinks and so our

cools down the gas drinks and so our balloon is quite a bit smaller than when

balloon is quite a bit smaller than when

balloon is quite a bit smaller than when we started

we started

we started it used to float as well and now it’s

it used to float as well and now it’s

it used to float as well and now it’s not floating as much and that’s because

not floating as much and that’s because

not floating as much and that’s because the density of the rubber is pulling it

the density of the rubber is pulling it

the density of the rubber is pulling it down but this will still work there’s

down but this will still work there’s

down but this will still work there’s still quite a bit of hydrogen in here at

still quite a bit of hydrogen in here at

still quite a bit of hydrogen in here at least enough to get a good reaction I

least enough to get a good reaction I

least enough to get a good reaction I think you hear that that’s all water

think you hear that that’s all water

think you hear that that’s all water splashing around inside there that’s the

splashing around inside there that’s the

splashing around inside there that’s the steam condensing and turning back into

steam condensing and turning back into

steam condensing and turning back into water inside the balloon listen to this

water inside the balloon listen to this

water inside the balloon listen to this [Music]

[Music]

[Music] that’s why it’s not floating it’s got

that’s why it’s not floating it’s got

that’s why it’s not floating it’s got all that water in it well it’s spilling

all that water in it well it’s spilling

all that water in it well it’s spilling down my gloves is probably not good and

down my gloves is probably not good and

down my gloves is probably not good and it smells like hydrogen

it smells like hydrogen

it smells like hydrogen it smells like success it smells like

it smells like success it smells like

it smells like success it smells like we’re about to have victory out here in

we’re about to have victory out here in

we’re about to have victory out here in the Arizona desert if I open the neck of

the Arizona desert if I open the neck of

the Arizona desert if I open the neck of the bottle a little bit you can see

the bottle a little bit you can see

the bottle a little bit you can see already the condensed water starting to

already the condensed water starting to

already the condensed water starting to drip out it’s cool all right update our

drip out it’s cool all right update our

drip out it’s cool all right update our hydrogen balloon is set all we have to

hydrogen balloon is set all we have to

hydrogen balloon is set all we have to do now is light off one of our sparkler

do now is light off one of our sparkler

do now is light off one of our sparkler darts shove it in the barrel and send it

darts shove it in the barrel and send it

darts shove it in the barrel and send it flying let’s see if this actually works

flying let’s see if this actually works

flying let’s see if this actually works my slow-mo is rolling Ritchie’s gonna

my slow-mo is rolling Ritchie’s gonna

my slow-mo is rolling Ritchie’s gonna let me take the first shot here yeah

let me take the first shot here yeah

let me take the first shot here yeah fire in the hole three two one oh that

fire in the hole three two one oh that

fire in the hole three two one oh that was perfect nice yes that was amazing

was perfect nice yes that was amazing

was perfect nice yes that was amazing nice shot I couldn’t have asked for

nice shot I couldn’t have asked for

nice shot I couldn’t have asked for anything better

anything better

anything better you hear that won’t all that hydrogen

you hear that won’t all that hydrogen

you hear that won’t all that hydrogen just coming out it wasn’t explosion it

just coming out it wasn’t explosion it

just coming out it wasn’t explosion it was a pump it was a big ball of fire but

was a pump it was a big ball of fire but

was a pump it was a big ball of fire but I still felt the compression wave did

I still felt the compression wave did

I still felt the compression wave did you feel that hit your chest oh I was

you feel that hit your chest oh I was

you feel that hit your chest oh I was like a deep bassy thud

that’s cool now this is hho gasps that

that’s cool now this is hho gasps that would have been an explosion it would

would have been an explosion it would

would have been an explosion it would have been ear piercing but because this

have been ear piercing but because this

have been ear piercing but because this is hydrogen it had to diffuse with the

is hydrogen it had to diffuse with the

is hydrogen it had to diffuse with the oxygen as it burned and so it probably

oxygen as it burned and so it probably

oxygen as it burned and so it probably took about 10 times longer for that burn

took about 10 times longer for that burn

took about 10 times longer for that burn than if we use HHO so apparently

than if we use HHO so apparently

than if we use HHO so apparently hydrogen exploding targets are now our

hydrogen exploding targets are now our

hydrogen exploding targets are now our thing we’re going to make them again and

thing we’re going to make them again and

thing we’re going to make them again and again and again we’re also adding a

again and again we’re also adding a

again and again we’re also adding a little bit of string here because as the

little bit of string here because as the

little bit of string here because as the balloon inflates the hydrogen’s lighter

balloon inflates the hydrogen’s lighter

balloon inflates the hydrogen’s lighter than air and so it may want to flow it

than air and so it may want to flow it

than air and so it may want to flow it away

okay let’s get these things lit up I

okay let’s get these things lit up I don’t think we have a lot of time to

don’t think we have a lot of time to

don’t think we have a lot of time to work with here we go

work with here we go

work with here we go we got him with Lock and Load fire did

we got him with Lock and Load fire did

we got him with Lock and Load fire did his ignite he did I don’t know if that

his ignite he did I don’t know if that

his ignite he did I don’t know if that blew up or not now here’s the thing guys

blew up or not now here’s the thing guys

blew up or not now here’s the thing guys our theory on why that last one didn’t

our theory on why that last one didn’t

our theory on why that last one didn’t make a big fireball is because the

make a big fireball is because the

make a big fireball is because the hydrogen was mixed with steam so when

hydrogen was mixed with steam so when

hydrogen was mixed with steam so when the sparkler went in there was a lot

the sparkler went in there was a lot

the sparkler went in there was a lot more heat energy that had to dissipate

more heat energy that had to dissipate

more heat energy that had to dissipate through the steam and so it didn’t make

through the steam and so it didn’t make

through the steam and so it didn’t make the big fireball wow that was actually a

the big fireball wow that was actually a

the big fireball wow that was actually a lot there like bless it back toward my

lot there like bless it back toward my

lot there like bless it back toward my face and I think it caught me on fire

face and I think it caught me on fire

face and I think it caught me on fire for a second so that we’re all good that

for a second so that we’re all good that

for a second so that we’re all good that was hot I felt that on my knuckles it

was hot I felt that on my knuckles it

was hot I felt that on my knuckles it looks hot that’s awesome

we’re all good no damage here guys let’s

we’re all good no damage here guys let’s roll

[Music]

[Music] rise look at that reaction

rise look at that reaction

rise look at that reaction bueno bueno indeed this way we can watch

bueno bueno indeed this way we can watch

bueno bueno indeed this way we can watch it from a distance and my hands are

it from a distance and my hands are

it from a distance and my hands are burning now if this explodes there’s a

burning now if this explodes there’s a

burning now if this explodes there’s a whole lot of steam in my face a lot of

whole lot of steam in my face a lot of

whole lot of steam in my face a lot of hot gas starting to get a little bit

hot gas starting to get a little bit

hot gas starting to get a little bit tighter I think I’m going to go ahead

tighter I think I’m going to go ahead

tighter I think I’m going to go ahead and release it release the Kraken ready

and release it release the Kraken ready

and release it release the Kraken ready the cannons okay here we go on three two

the cannons okay here we go on three two

the cannons okay here we go on three two one fire three two one fire a little bit

one fire three two one fire a little bit

one fire three two one fire a little bit of a delayed reaction there but I heard

of a delayed reaction there but I heard

of a delayed reaction there but I heard the whoop and I saw that flame come

the whoop and I saw that flame come

the whoop and I saw that flame come through that camera miticide real close
