Welp they have to put these warnings just incase for anyone that does then gets injured and tries to sue them as a result better to be safe then sorry and get sued for something that wasnt exactly ur fault
Diamonds may be the hardest but there is a reason there isn't armor made out of them, it's because it doesn't take pressure well and breaks like glass under a lot of it
@@SuperTroll2003 it makes sense, I know that diamonds are used to be the tip of a drill to dig very deeply into the earth, I think that for this job diamonds are the best but now for armor, no one has ever used it... that must be why
As you pressed the titanium I wondered what the hell the plates on the press are made of that they don't get deformed by some of these things. Lo and behold, immediately afterward the tungsten gave as good as it got.
Plain titanium isn't actually all that strong, it's actually weaker than most steels in most areas, not by a lit but it is a noticeable difference, main benefit of it is that weighs a lot less and handles thermal loads better, which makes it ideal for aerospace but its high price means steel is better for most applications
Titanium isn’t indestructibly that strong. Steel is cheaper, easier to make and is as strong. Titanium doesn’t have much use case outside of the airframe of high performance aircraft and submersible hull due to its high strength under high pressure loads. It doesn’t have as much use outside of this. Even steel is better as armor and for projectiles, steel cores are common and sometimes heavier metals like tungsten and uranium are used.
@@battleoid2411 More accurately, it's compressive strength is *terrible* compared to steel. The tensile strength is good, but that isn't going to help atop of a press.
if you want to make a rupert's drop that is more durable than any hydraulic press make it as small as possible. The smaller the drop, the stronger it is.
@@gameofdesigns7476 I know, that's not my point at all. It's just a waste to destroy a diamond worth thousands when a cristal substitute would do the same effect.
Everyone talking about how strong the press is, but no one asking if the press wants a hug. No one asking if the press ever wanted to be strong. Smh. Heartless.
Honestly that was probably not a real diamond, it would be such a waste to destroy a diamond this size when a cristal substitute would do almost the same job and no one would tell the difference.
Does anything come to mind as the substance that has generated the most heat while under stress? I'm sure at least some of these elements have been hot enough to burn bare skin coming off the press.
I suspect It’s not so much the pressure but the impact that breaks things. When I was younger I seen a guy on tv with his leg trapped between a concrete pillar. He actually made it out with minor injuries because the pillar slowly trapped his leg instead of just falling on it
@commentermr9222 I could be misunderstanding you, but if what you're trying to say is that the OceanGate submarine was less than the concrete pillar, that's incorrect because the submarine impoded at the speed of SOUND under tons of pressure per square inch
@@rustic_dwellerweirdly enough, it was. Real diamonds refract light so much that you *cannot* see right through them. That diamond was doing the same thing. It was real
@LzillaDaBes when a glass maker wants to make a Prince Rupert he allows super-heated, to the point of liquid, glass to flow into cold water from the staff the glass is wrapped around. Imagine honey or maple syrup coming out of a bottle into a glass of water. In this case the "honey" is so hot it looks like lava
From what I can tell the force is being transferred to the tail little bit by little bit until its enough to cause it to break leading to the classic Rupert's drop explosion. Seems like the explosion starts at the tail.
Whoever created the warning at the beginning was like “Ah yes I believe that everyone on earth has a 100,000 grand hydraulic press just sitting in their basement”😂
@@mrseriousv1 you missed my point,, I am inferring to the fact that, nuclear explosions occur when a radioactive material is brought under extremely high pressure in very small amounts of time.
At time stamp: 6:40. The Prince Rupert Drop sandwiched between the two titanium plates, if you look, you can see the air inclusions, the air bubbles, actually deforming under the pressure. Amazing! So, the drops didn't just go unaffected to the breaking point. It was actually deforming BEFORE the failure point! It's hard to see, but like the moving minute hand of a clock, the drop was moving, that is deforming the whole time. I find that fascinating! The world isn't always at it seems at first glance.
This video is pure gold! The hydraulic press vs. Rupert's Drop and titanium had me on the edge of my seat. Talk about a clash of titans! 💥 Can't wait to see what else you'll crush next! Keep those heavy hits coming, love it! 😂🔥
