I crush an obsidian sphere in my hydraulic press See the full video here: • Obsidian Crystal Ball ... Subscribe to my main channel here: / @theactionlab #shorts
For sure when flintlock muskets became common the workshops where men knapped the replaceable flints were death traps. Many men died in there 30s from lung disease only a few years into working there.
He was trying to show us how sharp obsidian was but cut himself in the process. Stopped shooting, went to put on a blue bandage, and proceeded filming. Classic.
Guy: mom my fingers are sore and my tongue is bleeding. Mom: how many times do i have to tell you not to mess with atomically sharp volcanic glass fragments? Mom: you didnt eat any did you? Guy: just wanted to see what it tases like. Mom: *shakes head* tell your father we are going to hospital again. Later. Doctor in ER: he put obsidian dust in his mouth. WTF. Nurse: should i get paperwork for Darwin Award?
@@RomrotMechanikos dangerous for a different reason, fiberglass splinters can get in your skin, and you CAN NOT pull them out, you basically have to shed the skin where the fibers are. Asbestos is dangerous to you because it can cause asbestosis if it manages to get in your lungs (with how brittle those fibers are, if you play with it, you will inhale it if you are not protected).
I actually did cut my finger in the scene before with the exact piece trying to show how sharp it was. I tried to wedge it in a stick to make a blade...see the full video in the description
Hmm, almost like he made that mistake and got cut, y’know like that large cut on his finger?? He just edited the warning in before him making the mistake so nobody clicked off the video before the warning after him making a mistake…
@@dardhadard837 i mean our pistons can't simulate minecraft physics with 100 percent accuracy.. imagine how many terrabytes of ram we'd need for that Video to happen lol
@@silencio579 i mean, maybe he did steal it. And? And now what? World will be gone? I think he will just get some likes and you dont even get paid for comments so its just your free will. I dont understand writing "u stole com dud" cos its just dumb.
@@LumenFox777 funny enough obsidian is even worse since it’s edges are even sharper than broken glass. Obsidian being one of the sharpest natural material is why people used to use hundreds of years ago
I have a piece permanently lodged in the side of my hand from flint knapping. Occasionally it causes the muscles to seize, or migrates a little and hits a nerve. It sucks.
@@BadBunnyBoy Yes, if the game has exp share and/or you use it, but the fainted pokemon won't gain any exp as far as i know. I saw once a video where someone purposely softlocked himself in pokemon league with only electrode that only had self destruct or explosion in red or blue.
@@slpguy6026 Thank you, yes. I should have made it clear that there ARE exceptions to that rule: For extremely delicate and shallow surgeries where sideways pressure isn't an issue, obsidian blades are still effective. I believe eye surgeries qualify when they are working on the lenses. After doing a quick google search, seems "steel allergies" are another reason they might change to an obsidian blade.
@Nubbdz v2 yo chill bro! He knew that he could hold that piece of obsidian, that's y he took it to show us what can happen to us if we be careless when we pick up obsidian 🤷♂️
Him: “Don’t crush obsidian” Also him: *Crushes obsidian* Him again: “Don’t play with shards of obsidian” Also him again: *Picks up obsidian and plays with it*
@@MrNiker I'm so 💀 from laughing. You sir, are a genius! Still, I prefer the strange looks I get when I put on my PPE just to watch this guy's videos.
I cringed so hard I barely saw what happened. I know it's a video, but it's gonna explode, and I could get an exploded ball of obsidian in my eyes if I just watch like a madman!
Obsidian is actually sharper than steel. There is an experiment currently ongoing to test it's use as a scalpel edge since there is a link between the raggedness of a wound edge and how badly it heals. Sharper blade, cleaner cut, better healing, smaller scars. Only thing getting in the way is the cost of a proper obsidian scalpel and the fact it would be hard to reuse since you can't exactly put it in an autoclave.
No. The reason they don't use it is because obsidian is very brittle. Sure it's far sharper than common steel scalpel, but you can't risk having a broken piece of obsidian left on patient during surgery
@@slkjvlkfsvnlsdfhgdght5447 Materials differ in how sharp they can be made. Try making a paring knife from a marshmallow and tell me it's as sharp as steel.
@@wizardsuth that's only half-true, and it's not what the OP said anyways: the OP said that obsidian is *sharper* than steel, not that it *can* be made sharper than steel. secondly: theoretically, you can make any material as sharp as you want: down to the width of one atom/molecule. what you said is only true in the practical sense. also, you need to remember that appearances can be deceiving: you may *think* that a marshmallow knife is less sharp, but it could just be that it lost its edge much more quickly than a steel knife, not that it was less sharp to begin with
Its about how you hold it if you mean the bigger shard he uses to cut with, and obsidian isnt that much different than handling broken glass, and how many of us have done that cleaning up or something without gloves?
@lalli8152 I was an event cleaner, and thought this dust pile was just dust. It was shards of glass DECORATED around the table. I got some tiny cuts on my hand, and it hurt like papercuts. No gloves. Bare hands. It didn't look like glass at all.
@@PorcupineTheOneandOnly ... They used glass powder as a decoration? In what country exactly? Because most of the civilized world knows powdered silica can cause severe lung cancer if inhaled. It's not "toxic", but it damn sure doesn't belong in your airways.
