what’s up guys welcome back I’m hanging again with my good friend Brian
again with my good friend Brian
again with my good friend Brian brushwood he is the modern Road hey man
brushwood he is the modern Road hey man
brushwood he is the modern Road hey man this is grant Thompson he’s the king of
this is grant Thompson he’s the king of
this is grant Thompson he’s the king of random and today we’re playing with some
random and today we’re playing with some
random and today we’re playing with some mad science we’ve got some drain cleaner
mad science we’ve got some drain cleaner
mad science we’ve got some drain cleaner we’ve got some aluminum foil what kind
we’ve got some aluminum foil what kind
we’ve got some aluminum foil what kind of a reaction will they produce if we
of a reaction will they produce if we
of a reaction will they produce if we mix the two together why do we have pink
mix the two together why do we have pink
mix the two together why do we have pink balloons now this chemical drain cleaner
balloons now this chemical drain cleaner
balloons now this chemical drain cleaner we picked up just came from the local
we picked up just came from the local
we picked up just came from the local hardware store and this is not liquid
hardware store and this is not liquid
hardware store and this is not liquid this is the crystal flakes and if you
this is the crystal flakes and if you
this is the crystal flakes and if you open it up you’ll see it’s actually dry
open it up you’ll see it’s actually dry
open it up you’ll see it’s actually dry says contain sodium hydroxide that’s a
says contain sodium hydroxide that’s a
says contain sodium hydroxide that’s a little terrifying all right so before we
little terrifying all right so before we
little terrifying all right so before we even began you shredded a bunch of this
even began you shredded a bunch of this
even began you shredded a bunch of this aluminum using a paper shredder what’s
aluminum using a paper shredder what’s
aluminum using a paper shredder what’s the point of doing that so we did we got
the point of doing that so we did we got
the point of doing that so we did we got a shredder we put a loom room foil
a shredder we put a loom room foil
a shredder we put a loom room foil through it and that’s treads it up into
through it and that’s treads it up into
through it and that’s treads it up into little tiny pieces the purpose of doing
little tiny pieces the purpose of doing
little tiny pieces the purpose of doing that is to increase the surface area of
that is to increase the surface area of
that is to increase the surface area of the aluminum it’s gonna make our
the aluminum it’s gonna make our
the aluminum it’s gonna make our reaction happen a little bit faster Oh
reaction happen a little bit faster Oh
reaction happen a little bit faster Oh commander Worf you look amazing that’s
commander Worf you look amazing that’s
commander Worf you look amazing that’s so cool we got our shredded aluminum
so cool we got our shredded aluminum
so cool we got our shredded aluminum we’ve got our drain cleaner all we need
we’ve got our drain cleaner all we need
we’ve got our drain cleaner all we need now is a little bit of water oh we got a
now is a little bit of water oh we got a
now is a little bit of water oh we got a little bit of water so we are ready to
little bit of water so we are ready to
little bit of water so we are ready to rock now when you’re dealing with
rock now when you’re dealing with
rock now when you’re dealing with chemical reactions it’s not a bad idea
chemical reactions it’s not a bad idea
chemical reactions it’s not a bad idea to start a little bit smaller and work
to start a little bit smaller and work
to start a little bit smaller and work our way up so we’re going to start off
our way up so we’re going to start off
our way up so we’re going to start off with this small glass bottle here and if
with this small glass bottle here and if
with this small glass bottle here and if everything goes to plan we can move our
everything goes to plan we can move our
everything goes to plan we can move our way up to one of these things all right
way up to one of these things all right
way up to one of these things all right so here’s what we want to do start off
so here’s what we want to do start off
so here’s what we want to do start off by putting a little bit of your drain
by putting a little bit of your drain
by putting a little bit of your drain cleaner here sodium hydroxide into a
cleaner here sodium hydroxide into a
cleaner here sodium hydroxide into a glass jar so now we can put in a little
glass jar so now we can put in a little
glass jar so now we can put in a little bit of our aluminum foil scraps on top
bit of our aluminum foil scraps on top
bit of our aluminum foil scraps on top and I don’t notice I’d say about four
and I don’t notice I’d say about four
and I don’t notice I’d say about four times the volume of aluminum what
times the volume of aluminum what
times the volume of aluminum what chemical reaction are we hoping is about
chemical reaction are we hoping is about
chemical reaction are we hoping is about to happen because right now we got what
to happen because right now we got what
to happen because right now we got what lye and aluminum right so why is sodium
lye and aluminum right so why is sodium
lye and aluminum right so why is sodium hydroxide naoh and the aluminum is
hydroxide naoh and the aluminum is
hydroxide naoh and the aluminum is basically just aluminum metal al what
basically just aluminum metal al what
basically just aluminum metal al what we’re gonna do is mix in some water and
we’re gonna do is mix in some water and
we’re gonna do is mix in some water and as we do that the sodium hydroxide is
as we do that the sodium hydroxide is
as we do that the sodium hydroxide is gonna dissolve and it’s gonna react with
gonna dissolve and it’s gonna react with
gonna dissolve and it’s gonna react with the aluminum and release hydrogen gas
the aluminum and release hydrogen gas
the aluminum and release hydrogen gas right and that gas is being released is
right and that gas is being released is
right and that gas is being released is the stuff that we’re after all right dad
the stuff that we’re after all right dad
the stuff that we’re after all right dad all right we’ve got pink balloons I’m
all right we’ve got pink balloons I’m
all right we’ve got pink balloons I’m feeling yeah feel yo let’s start off
feeling yeah feel yo let’s start off
feeling yeah feel yo let’s start off trying to put a little bit of water in
trying to put a little bit of water in
trying to put a little bit of water in the balloon let’s stretch the mouth of
the balloon let’s stretch the mouth of
the balloon let’s stretch the mouth of your balloon over your water bottle got
your balloon over your water bottle got
your balloon over your water bottle got it turn it upside down yep and put a
it turn it upside down yep and put a
it turn it upside down yep and put a reasonable amount in there it’s not
reasonable amount in there it’s not
reasonable amount in there it’s not gonna hurt us to have more rather than
gonna hurt us to have more rather than
gonna hurt us to have more rather than less right around there that looks
less right around there that looks
less right around there that looks perfect we’re gonna fit that over top of
perfect we’re gonna fit that over top of
perfect we’re gonna fit that over top of the jar now
the jar now
the jar now and once that is secured you can enter
and once that is secured you can enter
and once that is secured you can enter the balloon are you ready yep and it’s
the balloon are you ready yep and it’s
the balloon are you ready yep and it’s gonna let the water in boom there goes
gonna let the water in boom there goes
gonna let the water in boom there goes the water now watch what happens
the water now watch what happens
the water now watch what happens wow that’s a lot of water but you see as
wow that’s a lot of water but you see as
wow that’s a lot of water but you see as the sodium hydroxide dissolves it reacts
the sodium hydroxide dissolves it reacts
the sodium hydroxide dissolves it reacts with the aluminum and releases hydrogen
with the aluminum and releases hydrogen
with the aluminum and releases hydrogen gas so all those little bubbles that
gas so all those little bubbles that
gas so all those little bubbles that you’re seeing right now are hydrogen and
you’re seeing right now are hydrogen and
you’re seeing right now are hydrogen and here’s the cool they give it a little
here’s the cool they give it a little
here’s the cool they give it a little shake and you’re to see my reaction
shake and you’re to see my reaction
shake and you’re to see my reaction accelerates dramatically oh this is my
accelerates dramatically oh this is my
accelerates dramatically oh this is my favorite part
favorite part
favorite part hey congratulation this up the cow holy
hey congratulation this up the cow holy
hey congratulation this up the cow holy cow it’s going crazy oh it’s like
cow it’s going crazy oh it’s like
cow it’s going crazy oh it’s like pumping up how does that bottle feel now
pumping up how does that bottle feel now
pumping up how does that bottle feel now it’s really hot it’s really really hot
it’s really hot it’s really really hot
it’s really hot it’s really really hot that balloon is getting huge how much
that balloon is getting huge how much
that balloon is getting huge how much pressure can take I don’t know I think
pressure can take I don’t know I think
pressure can take I don’t know I think my I think we’re hey we got a little bit
my I think we’re hey we got a little bit
my I think we’re hey we got a little bit more but I mean it’s it’s about to burst
more but I mean it’s it’s about to burst
more but I mean it’s it’s about to burst okay so update guys this reaction just
okay so update guys this reaction just
okay so update guys this reaction just took off after about two minutes – and
took off after about two minutes – and
took off after about two minutes – and crazy it’s hot so hot go ahead pull the
crazy it’s hot so hot go ahead pull the
crazy it’s hot so hot go ahead pull the balloon off still spell
balloon off still spell
balloon off still spell oh the shames know all that hydrogen
oh the shames know all that hydrogen
oh the shames know all that hydrogen that we just love the smell of
that we just love the smell of
that we just love the smell of burned my fingertips that was insanely
burned my fingertips that was insanely
burned my fingertips that was insanely hot okay well let’s take a look at that
hot okay well let’s take a look at that
hot okay well let’s take a look at that there feel that oh yeah that is that is
there feel that oh yeah that is that is
there feel that oh yeah that is that is really work so it took about two minutes
really work so it took about two minutes
really work so it took about two minutes too small bubbling and then that
too small bubbling and then that
too small bubbling and then that reaction just took off in an instant
reaction just took off in an instant
reaction just took off in an instant that balloon blew up really crazy so we
that balloon blew up really crazy so we
that balloon blew up really crazy so we got to do that again we’ll do the big
got to do that again we’ll do the big
got to do that again we’ll do the big one we’ll be careful well let’s let’s
one we’ll be careful well let’s let’s
one we’ll be careful well let’s let’s get a good first reaction with this one
that can’t be good that is awesome I
that can’t be good that is awesome I love it okay so when you stuff that down
love it okay so when you stuff that down
love it okay so when you stuff that down the reaction just went crazy right yeah
the reaction just went crazy right yeah
the reaction just went crazy right yeah cuz I put the aluminum back down in
cuz I put the aluminum back down in
cuz I put the aluminum back down in there there we go okay and then we want
there there we go okay and then we want
there there we go okay and then we want to get that reacting against we’re gonna
to get that reacting against we’re gonna
to get that reacting against we’re gonna need to push that back down here I think
need to push that back down here I think
need to push that back down here I think we can that it’s kind of washed like we
we can that it’s kind of washed like we
we can that it’s kind of washed like we can put it right into the balloon look
can put it right into the balloon look
can put it right into the balloon look at that
at that
at that there we go okay yeah look how fast that
there we go okay yeah look how fast that
there we go okay yeah look how fast that reacts wow dude always amazed ever going
reacts wow dude always amazed ever going
reacts wow dude always amazed ever going dude that’s fill up fast what we got in
dude that’s fill up fast what we got in
dude that’s fill up fast what we got in this balloon hopefully is hydrogen gas
this balloon hopefully is hydrogen gas
this balloon hopefully is hydrogen gas right and we can verify that just by
right and we can verify that just by
right and we can verify that just by dumping a little bit of dish soap to a
dumping a little bit of dish soap to a
dumping a little bit of dish soap to a bowl of water we don’t have as much to
bowl of water we don’t have as much to
bowl of water we don’t have as much to work with due to our alright previuos
work with due to our alright previuos
work with due to our alright previuos competent handling I agree and if we put
competent handling I agree and if we put
competent handling I agree and if we put the neck of the balloon in there and
the neck of the balloon in there and
the neck of the balloon in there and fill it up and slowly let go
fill it up and slowly let go
fill it up and slowly let go we should start to generate some bubbles
we should start to generate some bubbles
we should start to generate some bubbles whoa whoa so cool guys we are confirmed
whoa whoa so cool guys we are confirmed
whoa whoa so cool guys we are confirmed we have hydrogen gas okay let’s take
we have hydrogen gas okay let’s take
we have hydrogen gas okay let’s take this up to 11 let’s crank it up we are
this up to 11 let’s crank it up we are
this up to 11 let’s crank it up we are super stoked this idea works we got
super stoked this idea works we got
super stoked this idea works we got hydrogen’s we’re gonna supersize it now
hydrogen’s we’re gonna supersize it now
hydrogen’s we’re gonna supersize it now with a one gallon juice container a lot
with a one gallon juice container a lot
with a one gallon juice container a lot more lye and these balloons I got at a
more lye and these balloons I got at a
more lye and these balloons I got at a truck stop you’re talking about these
truck stop you’re talking about these
truck stop you’re talking about these things right here rook stops they have
things right here rook stops they have
things right here rook stops they have balloons all right here we go so I’m
balloons all right here we go so I’m
balloons all right here we go so I’m gonna start off by just pouring a lot
gonna start off by just pouring a lot
gonna start off by just pouring a lot more ly in there it seems like you
more ly in there it seems like you
more ly in there it seems like you really can’t have too much I would think
really can’t have too much I would think
really can’t have too much I would think you could it’s going to throw a few
you could it’s going to throw a few
you could it’s going to throw a few handfuls
handfuls
handfuls and we’ve got our truckstop balloons
and we’ve got our truckstop balloons
and we’ve got our truckstop balloons standing by I have to find a way to hold
standing by I have to find a way to hold
standing by I have to find a way to hold that on tightly though I don’t know why
that on tightly though I don’t know why
that on tightly though I don’t know why they’d roll these balloons up that’s a
they’d roll these balloons up that’s a
they’d roll these balloons up that’s a little bit slippery so it looks from our
little bit slippery so it looks from our
little bit slippery so it looks from our last reaction like we’ve got about two
last reaction like we’ve got about two
last reaction like we’ve got about two minutes before it starts going crazy
minutes before it starts going crazy
minutes before it starts going crazy yeah but you could tell it’s already at
yeah but you could tell it’s already at
yeah but you could tell it’s already at least starting right now you see a
least starting right now you see a
least starting right now you see a goblin yeah now this is awesome guys
goblin yeah now this is awesome guys
goblin yeah now this is awesome guys it’s only about thirty seconds and I
it’s only about thirty seconds and I
it’s only about thirty seconds and I already filled the bottom of the glass
already filled the bottom of the glass
already filled the bottom of the glass container starting to warm up you can
container starting to warm up you can
container starting to warm up you can see the waters gone completely cloudy
see the waters gone completely cloudy
see the waters gone completely cloudy with bubbles I was starting to get a
with bubbles I was starting to get a
with bubbles I was starting to get a slight indication in our balloon that
slight indication in our balloon that
slight indication in our balloon that we’re collecting some gas so I guess
we’re collecting some gas so I guess
we’re collecting some gas so I guess really it’s just a matter of time
really it’s just a matter of time
really it’s just a matter of time because it really did it took two full
because it really did it took two full
because it really did it took two full minutes before the reaction went in the
minutes before the reaction went in the
minutes before the reaction went in the high gear yeah then it just went crazy
high gear yeah then it just went crazy
high gear yeah then it just went crazy at that point so here we’re definitely
at that point so here we’re definitely
at that point so here we’re definitely collecting some gas as you can see our
collecting some gas as you can see our
collecting some gas as you can see our balloons filling up you know what I bet
balloons filling up you know what I bet
balloons filling up you know what I bet we filled this one up and I bet we could
we filled this one up and I bet we could
we filled this one up and I bet we could tie it off and then get another one
tie it off and then get another one
tie it off and then get another one going oh my gosh oh my gosh guys check
going oh my gosh oh my gosh guys check
going oh my gosh oh my gosh guys check this out it’s going crazy it’s actually
this out it’s going crazy it’s actually

wow that’s dead tell me this is eight
wow that’s dead tell me this is eight that is amazing here let me get another
that is amazing here let me get another
that is amazing here let me get another I’m getting another balloon alright so
I’m getting another balloon alright so
I’m getting another balloon alright so this reaction is going crazy all already
this reaction is going crazy all already
this reaction is going crazy all already filled up one balloon and we have a
filled up one balloon and we have a
filled up one balloon and we have a little bit actually we saw have quite a
little bit actually we saw have quite a
little bit actually we saw have quite a bit of gas but it looks like the
bit of gas but it looks like the
bit of gas but it looks like the reaction settling down well that’s real
reaction settling down well that’s real
reaction settling down well that’s real good
good
good look at that that is crazy fast this
look at that that is crazy fast this
look at that that is crazy fast this reaction is exothermic it releases heat
reaction is exothermic it releases heat
reaction is exothermic it releases heat as it reacts with the aluminum and you
as it reacts with the aluminum and you
as it reacts with the aluminum and you can definitely feel that this glass is
can definitely feel that this glass is
can definitely feel that this glass is so ridiculously warm right now how does
so ridiculously warm right now how does
so ridiculously warm right now how does that feel right now bra Oh much better
that feel right now bra Oh much better
that feel right now bra Oh much better now
now
now it feels tolerable I was afraid that
it feels tolerable I was afraid that
it feels tolerable I was afraid that thing was gonna bust open yeah second
thing was gonna bust open yeah second
thing was gonna bust open yeah second there I was amazing so here’s the next
there I was amazing so here’s the next
there I was amazing so here’s the next question if I put a straw into this
question if I put a straw into this
question if I put a straw into this balloon it’ll slowly let the gas out if
balloon it’ll slowly let the gas out if
balloon it’ll slowly let the gas out if I light the tip will it keep burning
I light the tip will it keep burning
I light the tip will it keep burning like a torch or the whole thing blow up
like a torch or the whole thing blow up
like a torch or the whole thing blow up in my face whoa
in my face whoa
in my face whoa hydrogen torch guys it smelly gonna try
hydrogen torch guys it smelly gonna try
hydrogen torch guys it smelly gonna try this first
this first
this first hazing look at that whoa like a little
hazing look at that whoa like a little
hazing look at that whoa like a little sodium hydroxide in the morning oh that
sodium hydroxide in the morning oh that
sodium hydroxide in the morning oh that was amazing it was incredible that was a
was amazing it was incredible that was a
was amazing it was incredible that was a fun experiment I’m really glad that we
fun experiment I’m really glad that we
fun experiment I’m really glad that we tried that today now we had another cool
tried that today now we had another cool
tried that today now we had another cool idea what if we took this inside where
idea what if we took this inside where
idea what if we took this inside where you can see the flames a little bit
you can see the flames a little bit
you can see the flames a little bit better oh it’s warm
better oh it’s warm
better oh it’s warm I might be staying that was super fast
dude that’s amazing Wow
dude that’s amazing Wow [Applause]
[Applause]
[Applause] [Music]
supercool guys so now you know what
supercool guys so now you know what happens if you mix Cristal drain cleaner
happens if you mix Cristal drain cleaner
happens if you mix Cristal drain cleaner with aluminum foil and water yeah you
with aluminum foil and water yeah you
with aluminum foil and water yeah you get an awesome torch and you get some
get an awesome torch and you get some
get an awesome torch and you get some nasty slurry how do you dispose of this
nasty slurry how do you dispose of this
nasty slurry how do you dispose of this stuff so what we’re gonna do is dump
stuff so what we’re gonna do is dump
stuff so what we’re gonna do is dump this in a solution of vinegar because
this in a solution of vinegar because
this in a solution of vinegar because that’s going to help neutralize the base
that’s going to help neutralize the base
that’s going to help neutralize the base but remember guys you are playing with
but remember guys you are playing with
but remember guys you are playing with very caustic chemicals these are very
very caustic chemicals these are very
very caustic chemicals these are very dangerous they have very strong warning
dangerous they have very strong warning
dangerous they have very strong warning labels so if you think about doing any
labels so if you think about doing any
labels so if you think about doing any kind of experiments like this make sure
kind of experiments like this make sure
kind of experiments like this make sure you read the warning labels they’re
you read the warning labels they’re
you read the warning labels they’re there for a reason so guys if you
there for a reason so guys if you
there for a reason so guys if you haven’t already go check out my friend
