12 Surprising things that glow under UV light | A blacklight experiment  

Your bathroom, paper, your toothpaste, clothes especially white tshirts. Your fingernails. Uranium glass. Certain cd and dvd cases. Construction paper. Book bindings. LED light filaments. And many more!

There are some oddball white fluorescent lamps that have weird phosphor formulas that causes it to light up weird green or reddish pink. And if you got some synthetic ruby (some smoke shops obviously got terpene pearls there that are ruby and much easier to get), put it under the blacklight, they glow red - fake ruby don't glow. There was one thing that actually surprised me, the Osram Powerball ceramic metal halide bulb, that I decided to check to see if it got UV block dopants added to the quartz envelope - I didn't expect the salts to glow hot pink within when I shine blacklight straight at the ceramic arc tube. Also, don't forget, my favorite; peanut butter, they have persistent phosphorescence effects that lasts for a second or two, you need to be in a dark room to see it. I have a filtered Nichia NVSU233A blacklight flashlight I put together years ago, so I had too much fun with it. 🤷

Dried urine will glow under a blacklight. Useful in detecting pet accidents as well as mice or rats activity. You can use the blacklight to see how well you cleaned your toilet.

Ok olive glows red

I didn't think my crumpet would glow. Yet here we are 😂

The music is very annoying.

They played this kind of music in the Hanoi hilton...

not all of these things are fluorescent. only those things that glow BRIGHTLY like white or neon colors are actually fluorescent. the things that glow dimly are either not very or are just reflecting the UV light because some of the light emitted is visible.

My dude forgot credit and debit cards

Some halogen bulbs also glow under a blacklight by the way.

It’s ok if you turnoff-the background noise.

GH, good video. Do you mind if I use just a few seconds, for an educational video i'm currently shooting? I'm happy to give credit

I really wanna get this lol but I need help, terpene pearls are being used as synthetic ruby and they actually light up under UV but fake ones don’t light up? Something like that, I’m close… I can feel it lol.

This was pretty boring just seeing if random shit glows or not.

Do the people who make these videos think we have 5 hours to watch their crap? Maybe you have nothing better to do but these videos are too long and slow, just not worth it
