Can A Gumball Kill You? Ballistic Gel Test 

I love these guys. Even though their rig is basically exploding and dismantling itself with every run, they just calmly press on anyway.

“Speaking of 3 inches…” lmaooo rekt

I can't tell if Neil is playing a character or if he's actually a human meme

I love it when you guys make these alternative videos to your waterjet cutting videos!

3:18 I'm pretty sure everything in that vertical pipe is going to get spat right out. 9:00 A jacket, pork shoulder, oranges, and a high-tech fleece bullet stop.

Whoppers could be used as less lethal by law enforcement. Then they could be like we were just distributing candy at a parade. Very promptly.

This is the MOST ½ assed ballistic gel test I've ever seen...I LOVE IT!

I love how the whoopers hit the gel and stay intact but as soon as they are redirected they shatter.

This is one of my favorite videos. I really love the editing you've put into it, a nice touch that keeps me watching the whole time, whereas lead up to the slow mo can often just drag out. Nice work!

What I find cool is that even though most of the candy is shattered on impact, the gel physically holds it together until it bounces off.

many mythbuster vibes with this one lol

When we were kids in the early days of paintball guns, my friend Thomas put a Whopper (TM) malted milk ball into his paintball gun and it fit PERFECTLY. He then proceeded to shoot our friend Jeremy RIGHT in the forearm "rabbit" spot with a Whopper (tm) from about 5ft away. It was brutal. Poor ole Remy had a green and purple welt there for weeks. He bled a little but it didn't imbed in his skin or anything. But damn...savage. RIP Remy. Miss ya brother.

The line of balls almost disappearing at 6:50 had me cracking up. Beautiful.

The way the whoppers impacted and disintegrated was EPIC!

A lot more damage than I thought would happen. Great video guys!

I feel like the music is getting louder after every slow mo shot.

You'll be stepping on melted gum in the parking lot for the next 3 years

Echoes of Adam Savage's chagrined expression while all of the foam balls in his automatic nerf gun shot straight up out of the tube. 🤣

Now I'm curious, have you tried jaw breakers? Like, the ones that are 2+ inches across?

I love the gumball rapid fire where each on keeps slamming into the others until the last one then it spits it back out

A Gobstopper is nearly the same size as a paintball... and will dent a steel door. Do what you will with this information.

That was some surprising results the gumballs actually flew straight and in uniform.

The gum ball deforming was insane

I love to see variety on this channel. Waterjet stuff is obviously what we all came for but this stuff is just as good.

You guys can get much higher velocities if you replace that ball valve with a modified 1" sprinkler valve (available at Home Depot), all you have to do is unthread the solenoid coil from the top of the valve and fill the hole with epoxy, then once that cures drill a 7/16" hole in the center of the diaphragm cover plate (remove all the screws and separate the parts, then drill the cover plate separate from the valve body or you'll either drill through the diaphragm or get plastic drill shavings between the sealing edges). Once you drill the 7/16" hole tap 1/4"-NPT threads into it and then thread a pneumatic blow gun into the hole with Teflon tape. This will be your actuation valve, all you need to do to fire the system is charge the chamber with pressure (which is _WAAAAAAAY_ too big BTW, a 3" diameter piece of PVC about 4 feet long will give you the same results without wasting air) then press the blow gun trigger, the valve will open in a few hundredths of a second instead of the half second it takes that ball valve to open. It operates exactly like a Quick Exhaust Valve, or QEV for short, they're what you hear when a truck releases it's brakes, that rapid burst of air is vented from a QEV. If you try the system with just the solenoid electronic actuation it will open very _very_ slowly, most of the time it just makes a hysterical honking noise because the diaphragm flutters and can't decide whether to open or close. But if you do what I explained, the blowgun evacuates the pilot side of the valve nearly instantaneously and provides the maximum possible amount of pressure to the projectile in the least amount of time. And since the valve will only stay open as long as the blow gun is pressed, it shuts off airflow much sooner than you could close the ball valve. Just my 2 cents, I've only been building professional potato guns for two decades😉. For a much deeper look into the subject of pnuematically triggered valves and potato guns in general (these pneumatic guns this size are considered child's play BTW lol), check out the SpudTech forums at Spudtech .com.

Hi bro im India im tamil my age 15 I'm you big fan bro

Heck, is Mitchell going to build a log cabin and wear bib overalls? Really rocking the Grizzly Adams effect.

I seen enough science videos to know if you make anything go fast enough, it can kill you

“No officer I have no idea how that man was killed by a gumball” *puts gumball in mouth*

1:54 me after eating two crunch wrap supremes at taco bell.

Until I found out about clay ammo, i used to get gobstoppers to use as ammo for my slingshot practice xD

That guy Neil reminds me so much of me old roommate Emmett. Weird guy, but probably one of the coolest people I've ever lived with.

They show the E25 raycons, I suggest the E55 pro. Ive had both and like the battery life of the 55s much better. Sent them through the wash on accident, no damage. Edit: I just looked them up and they are now called the fitness earbuds. And they are also waterproof, which I did not know, so of course fine through the wash. Prices are definitely going up since a year ago (early 2021)

6:13 “I don’t care what Galaxy your from that’s gotta hurt”

Semi-Automatic gumballs might not kill you, but full auto gumballs can kill.

“Some of you may have noticed the Neil is kind of a sad looking person” I really thought it was gonna be a dating site add

The way that ballistics gell kept the mass of the crumbs together and shot it almost directly back was insain.

watch out the ATF just might classify the Gumball canon as a machine gun and issue a cease & desist order on you... LMAO good job

Imagine walking into the emergency room and having to explain why there's chocolate dust in your wounds. Or an ENTIRE GOBSTOPPER for that matter.

We did the same thing working at Claiborne Bombing Range in LA but with a full CO2 tank and regulator. The holding tank was 2" heavy wall tube with a 3/4 copper pipe 12' long. But we used 20 penny nails ground to a fine point and used time cards to make a cone. It would blow a hole through an engine block! Things you do when your bored..... Come on guys ramp it up!

You should have weighted the items and calculated the joules, +80 joules is likely lethal

Speaking of 3 inches, Neil...😂😂😂

You should cut the ballistic gel along the part where the rapid fire gumballs penetrated. I would love to see a cross section of the damages

This is actually really cool ngl my therapist said gumball waterson couldn't hurt me but life has proved him wrong

This channel never ceases to entertain.

Would Raycons be lethal shot out of an air canon?

I love how you guys go straight to the point with your content.

I can tell you guys really upped the production values on this one

It’s like myth busters with less insurance mandated safety

Wow you can use those earbuds to mow the lawn? Who knew it can cut grass?

Funny. You guys shot the Chocolate ball and half a second later, I’m watching an add for Linndor chocolate.

I never knew I needed to watch a chocolate hit something and then bounce back and explode.

Dubble Bubble? Missed opportunity to shoot a Bazooka

You guys should get a steel pipe and weld it to the valve.

The slow mo shots of the little chocolates were pretty awesome...

The best part is that a ballistic gel company sent a water jet channel a block of gel. A water jet channel

nobody: guy at taco bell toilet stalls : 1:53

i randomly thought of the 'definitely a buy' kid just yesterday, and here it is in your video.

Awesome video. I'm glad someone thinks this stuff up.

1:54 exact representation on every time I go to the bathroom after taco bell.

The gum balls going in looked like the meme from Tom and jerry with the cats marching in and it had me dead

The hits on the ribs proved it’s deadly.

That slowmo on the Maltballs and gumballs is mesmerizing. 🤯👏👏

im so glad i stopped shooting my friends with high velocity candy i never knew how dangerous it was

they are slowly becoming the new myth busters

I definetely without a doubt would never ever want to be hit by a gumball going that damn fast ever 🤣🤣

Imagine getting kidnapped by a group of people and all you hear is "put him in front of the water jet"

2:02 the pipe is like: I WANT TO PLAY TOO, WHEEEEEEEE!!!

2:30 "In kilometers you'll just have to make that up"

I see the abandoned LS swapped snowcat in the background

1:54 Blink 182 - Enema of The State

I love neil, he is so damn cringy , its funny af

Thank God for RU-vid and cheep cameras. Now everyone can be a myth buster

raycons, they honestly are that good. i may buy another pair and i never go anywhere without them. they were a life changer over my beats and sony earbuds. ratcon is the way to go for me.

I'm gonna need some phantom slow motion footage of the whoppers hitting that gel

lmaooo, that was epic! Cheers for the share :D

You need a one way valve on the top pipe. That way the pressure is directed through the main barrel

They weren't lying when they say sweets will kill you🤣🤣

I thought you were gonna say you needed a gf for Neil. I was MORE than ready to step up.

That just warms my heart

they went through all this trouble to see if the gum ball would kill you when they could’ve just choked on it and gotten the job over with

"These are raycon's" its not a present, BUY YOUR OWN lol you have the pressure

Neil with his pineapple covered shirt hahahah

As if the broken ribs weren't bad enough, the carnage inside the box is the icing on the cake.

Ive removed the buckshot from a 20 ga. shotgun shell and crammed two starbursts into the wad. I shot a concrete block with it for the starburst to shatter. There was some real fine stringy stickyness in a few places about as fine as a spiderweb but for the most part it shattered. Temperature's in the 80s outside but it acted like the taffy like material was frozen or that it was colder outside.

Dude that fully auto gumball shot looked so cool lol

Such beautifully coloured death! :)

That first one is exactly what I'm doing to the toilet right now.

Best use of a Harbor Freight bucket I’ve seen.

1:55 when the Taco Bell hits your lower intenstine

The Lindor chocolate seems more like a paintball where it’ll break on the skin and leave a welt

Neil is fucking hilarious. "IM HIT"

With most of them, they don’t even have to be that fast. You just need to shove it down someone’s airway!

Mitchell's beard is MAGNIFICENT! dysentery is no bueno

You could make some barriers to stop de wind. Maybe you could put some plates with just a hole in the middle so the objete can pass and the air cone is stopped.

Goddamn Mitchell has put on some weight in the last year!

The water jet channel, where sometimes it's an air jet! Fun

Killing people with candy.... Replacing Willy Wonka's job since 1971

I had to take a brief pause when I heard the man in charge of the scienceing say they were going to shoot the rack or ribs and try to break the skin

Neil looks like a good Mormon boy.
