Yeah a single contact point object like ball can penetrate faster then any flat / multiple contact point object, also the reason why bullets are pointed.
I've worked at a steel plant where they made railway wheels from ingots using a 6400 ton forging press. It's a sight to see, a heavy red-hot ingot being flattened like a pancake.
I received an MS in structural engineering in the late 80s. My research included using a hydraulic press like this. We used to crush all sorts of things when the professor was gone. Too bad RU-vid hadn’t been invented or this could have been my channel.
@@TheCdubbleyoo AFV never showed anything like this. It’s not exactly funny. He means a platform like RU-vid where you can post random things that people will watch. Whether it be funny, interesting or just plain weird. I’d never turn on my tv to just watch a scheduled channel where people just crush things with a hydraulic press. But I would on RU-vid .
I knew several fellows that worked in a shipyard where of course they had access to lots of really big, powerful tools. On a perhaps boring day when a boss was away, a wrecked car was noticed in a parking lot. They picked it up, sandblasted it, etched it, then chromeplated it and carefully placed it back in its space. Needless to say the boss who had been absent was not pleased.
The background soundtrack can only be a reference to the terminator film where Sarah Connor crushes the T800 with a hydraulic press at the end of the film, right?
@@prod.flashbeam no, it's because it's a legal preface. They don't want to be held liable to be sued if someone somehow actually does this and hurts or kills themselves doing it. Every stunt and experiment has to be legally prefaced with that statement.
@@Codeman785 Shouldn't every thing with stealth sacrifice Every other quality than their main purpose/objective? Like a stealth bomber should be designed for rather being fast and destructive, instead of being so heavily armored right?
The test is getting to 100 tons of pressure, once they get to that point they passed, but anyway this guy doesn't surrender, so destroys anything by any means anyway like using the metal balls, more pressure or the metal plates.
Do you need some super re-enforced floor for a machine like this, or does the machine itself contain all the pressure its creating, so that the floor bears no force? Or maybe all of the force is getting spread across a large area at the bottom of the press? I just wonder if it can break through the ground it's on top of lol.
He was likely far more proud that a stranger of his mentioned him and alluded to his trivial pursuits on a platform owned by plutocrats that HAYTE him. :P :P :P
@@somethingthisway imagine calling Google plutocrats when you're literally watch a video on their platform, probably on an android phone which the OS is made by Google, or on an iPhone which Apple is still a major corporation like Google therefore enabling the said plutocrats
I wasn't expecting the rail to withstand 90 tons. A passenger train wagon is about 30 tons loaded, on 8 wheels, it's about 3-4 tons of pressure. Also considering the thickness of the rail, I was expecting it to max out at 30-40 tons.
The rail would probably have a large margin of error to work with due to the engineers accounting for wear and tear along with variable train weights, I think
@Firer is right. Why dont u consider the loaded freight trains? And the big heavy locos also. They are much heavier than a normal passenger coach. And the rail is supposed to withstand them all. Also consider the speed of the train. A train running fast gets its weight increased due to complex addition of force vectors. So high speed rail lines are engineered to bear that extra weight during running. So it is not surprising that the rail line would be the toughest one to crumble.
the wagon may weigh 30 tons, but that weight is evenly distributed across all of its wheels. The piece of rail in the video had all 90 tons applied to one point. Those rails can take full engines that weigh into the hundreds of tons just as long as the mass is spread out.
ya i knew instantly that solid steel ball bearing would take immense force to smash. just look at the heat that was released making sparks. man thats incredible force
The ruperts drop and the railway rail was impressive. A coal rail car ways around 250,000 lbs loaded. It structurally shows just how strong a coal car is and that the frame and wheels absorb a lot of the weight before it penetrates the tracks. I would like to see a triangle cut out or welded with high gauge steel and see how it pairs up to the press. This was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for the video.
Who else while watching these feels like they need to put on some safety goggles because those metal and glass shards are going to come right through the screen? I get a little squinty and want to look away for safety 😂.
@@darkplayer2557 mate you are a legend i had no idea they made a game of that movie i found it thanks to you that was going to drive me crazy cheers. i will be adding it to my atmospheric game playlist.
How it started: there's no way I'm watching another 9 minute hydrolic press video How it's going: that was awesome. Let's watch the next one about filling in cracks with cement.
I'm always impressed by the strength of glass, commercial applications like windows and cups give the impression that it's a very fragile material. Industrial applications demonstrate otherwise.
90 tons is impressive. That's over two max loaded (40 tons) tractor trailers. Two of those massive trucks hanging by this little chain would look unreal.
Exactly what i was thinking. I'm not sure everyone understands how much 90 tons really is. I was imagining 45 of my trucks sitting on top of a weightless plate that was pressing down on the chain. How can ANY material withstand such force within just a square foot or so? Blows my mind.

The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different stream of income that doesn't depend on the govt especially with the current economic crisis around the world.
The global pandemic shut many financial institutions from functioning thereby rendering most people jobless & investors lost more than they ever thought of losing.
