Turning paint thinner into cherry soda

This man is a magician…, also I like my browser just the way it is, so I’m ok…

Hi Nile Red

😭

hello

I’ve personally accidentally made multiple high grade explosives while trying to make soup🥱🤮

Hate when that happens 🙄

I've personally made soup

@@grug925 I just accidently turned water into wine at a party...

I mean truthfully everything in existence in relativity is close to being the same thing. The atomic structure of 78 protons gives you platinum. Add one more and now it's suddenly friggin gold. Suppose gold is "terrifyingly close" to platinum then right? Everything is just one proton, atom, or chemical link away from being somethjng completely different. The anatomy of our universe is really weird.

And it's amazing how our body has the mechanisms to tell us two of those are definitely bad and the other is perfectly fine when diluted. Evolution is amazing.

​@@alterapp8880 I think I main takeaway is how easily an one thing be turned into another. Platinum and gold are not that different, but it is not easy to transmute them.

@@wuguxiandi9413 It's not easy, but it can be done. We've done transmutation before, even into gold, but it's just not worth the cost.

Eh, that’s how matter works. Everything is “almost something else.”

CHEMISTRY!!

You can never be sure with Nile

You haven’t??

How do you think he got this idea?

When i was 15 i got the idea that drinking paint thinner was probably an easier way to unalive myself than medicine, took one drop of it and gave up the same moment, it doesn't just taste bad, it *burns*

@@sadbtch2976 reminds me of when I took like 7 pain killers a day for a few weeks because it’s useless trying to actually OD on them, so I was trying to just kill my liver lmao- Hope you’re doing alright 👍🏻

ha polar. like chemistry.

Not to mention trinitrotoluene (TNT) is very chemically similar, too.

@@pineapplequeen13 To be fair, you can add nitrogen to most things, and it makes those things want to blow up. It's rocket science.

@@Bennici Rocket science is easy, it's those rocket surgeons you gotta watch out for.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around paint thinner + blood red cancer juice + ozone hole puncher = yummy cherries. Like, what the hell?

It's like when all the characters are finally really happy but you're only halfway through the book.

I'm surprised he has any sense of smell left. Anytime he takes a whiff of something and says it faintly smells of something, I'm sure any normal person would be fainting. iirc He hardly reacted to the stuff from previous video, which stunk up everything for a mile.

​@@Dangermad Yeah but it's still ironic considering the hubub about those yellow dyes was because they were derived from benzene. Stuff that is reacted professionally vs a backyard chemist making cherry flavor from some really nasty stuff.

@@RotatingLocomotive 5 never let yourself down

That silly goose nile always committing war crimes 😊

It wasn’t the tasty, cherry flavor he was hoping for 😢

Maybe they made the same accident, back when they invented this war crime. It just turned out not to be flavour, but something with another use...

Only time will tell

Very reminiscent of the time he made an atomic bomb (NileGreen)

I like how "horrible tasting" and "toxic" also applies to cherry soda in the first place!

It’s like how they have to add bad tastes to certain medical substances cause if they didn’t people would drink them for their intoxicating effects. If it taste yummy humans would probably drink it

@@Roger__Wilco I think the joke was that he said paint thinner instead of soda

@@nightwxlk7058 I think he got the joke

​@@nightwxlk7058 no, the joke was literally in the beginning talking about paint thinner

Cherry-flavoured tear gas sounds like something Cave Johnson would force his top Aperture chemists to create

​@d00gz_ asked gpt Cave Johnson: "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Aperture Science, where we turn nightmares into reality and dreams into lawsuits! Now, let me tell you something, folks. We're always pushing the boundaries of science, exploring the unexplored, and exploiting the exploited! And today, I've got a little proposition for you all that'll make your eyes water - and not just from the tear gas!" Cave Johnson: "You see, we've been making strides in non-lethal crowd control technology, because apparently, just shooting folks with bullets is 'inhumane' or some nonsense like that. So, what do we do? We get creative! We think outside the box, or in our case, outside the cube! Introducing... Cherry Flavored Tear Gas!" (He gestures dramatically to a slide showing a cherry-shaped tear gas canister.) Cave Johnson: "That's right, folks. Picture this: you're at a protest, the tension is high, the air is thick with dissent, and suddenly, the authorities unleash a cloud of our patented Cherry Flavored Tear Gas! Not only does it incapacitate you, but it also leaves you with a delightful aftertaste! And who doesn't love cherries, right?" (He pauses, waiting for applause that doesn't come.) Cave Johnson: "But wait, there's more! We've even developed different flavors to cater to everyone's tastes! How about blueberry for the pacifists, or maybe habanero for those spicy revolutionaries? The possibilities are endless, folks!" (He leans in closer to the audience, his tone conspiratorial.) Cave Johnson: "Now, I know what you're thinking - 'Cave, isn't tear gas already controversial?' And to that, I say, 'Bah! Controversy is just another word for publicity!' Trust me, folks, once we start marketing this stuff, people will be lining up to get a taste - literally!" (He straightens up, his enthusiasm infectious.) Cave Johnson: "So, who's with me? Who's ready to revolutionize riot control and make a mint while doing it? Remember, at Aperture Science, the only limit is your imagination - and maybe a few pesky ethics committees, but we'll worry about those later! Thank you, and let's make tear gas great again!" (He exits the stage to a mix of confused murmurs and hesitant applause, leaving the audience wondering if they should be excited or deeply concerned.)

​@@thomascoleman594 what other banned substances has he used

"Theoretically safe" is also a very relative term because the theory your work is based on might be more or less reliable as the papers in the end were still written by humans. Also, you thinking you did everything correctly doesn't mean you actually did. So "theoretically safe" assumes a perfect theory and practice without any mistakes, in which case it would indeed be completely safe. That's why you double and triple check absolutely everything if you're doing something potentially harmful or dangerous. Even if you get the reaction right, just a little bit of side product that didn't get washed out can seriously harm you, depending on what it is. But hey, that's why papers are published and why science has to be reproducible. The community can check your process and everything and correct any mistakes. The more brains there are that think about your ideas and practices, the closer we get from "theoretically safe" to "actually safe."

Yes that's why I love chemistry especially organic chemistry. Because you can do everything in the paper you're supposed to do and do it as precisely as possible and yet you can get something absolutely different. Man I love chemistry

@@Nitidus I study chemistry, just so my words have some merit here. The HNMR, basically makes any impurities show up right away, since its super sensitive equipment (and also really fucking expensive), so after the HNMR graph looked good, (which it did, like literally textbook perfect), there was basically no risk at that point, and is just as safe as the stuff you buy in stores.

That’s exactly why I really want to do it. I’m just scared of having problems and not knowing how to fix them :(

​@ihaveboneitis8259 When i was TA'ing during my PhD I had to write weekly quizzes for my students. I would just take a similar procedure to what I was teaching and minorly screw them up, bad math, wrong amount, wrong order, wrong solvent, wrong technique, etc. The students had the entire 4 hour lab class to collectively try to figure out where the mistakes were made. But they were also physically doing related but not identical procedures at the same time. It taught multitasking, attention to detail, teamwork, and problem solving. And most importantly, just because someone wrote it down doesn't mean it's right. And it was super easy to grade for me since I didnt have to write new quizzes every other night. Just ctrl+c, backspace, and screw it all up

wait till nile blue tries this

Math checks out

bruh

I seriously could not stop laughing at the tear gas. Definitely one of the funniest channels on youtube. 🤣

@@clintonbehrends4659 Sounds more like extractions and ire ;)

It is shockingly easy to accidentally create ww1 chemical weapons. People make mustard gas all the time when they mix bleach with other cleaners to make a "super cleaner". (Don't do this!)

He's probably the only RU-vidr to do either individually, much less together. Probably the only one ever for the latter.

Not even the first to do it smh. Vault had carcinogens in their Red Blitz flavor apparently Seriously though, it's always awesome watching him do stuff like this

​@QuintanaCS o.o i drank that as a child. Oh shit

not just toxic and carcinogenic, but flammable, corrosive, caustic, and explosive. he used CHROMYL FUCKING CHLORIDE to make CHERRY SODA.

@@tortadedisrespect Same o.o

Still toxic and cancer causing lmao

@@hardcoreholman303 then you should go off eating many baked goods, as almond extract (a common ingredient in a lot of baking) tends to contain benzaldehyde... also consider refraining from eating salt, because salt is made from sodium and chloride, both very toxic on their own. We must refrain from consuming anything that is a product of toxic chemistry ingredients (dies from lack of sodium intake)

Again ... Our "chef" is on the loose! In fact, Nile is making me hungry right now, not only for explosions, hehehe:)

He is anxious about explosions I am more anxious about the toxic fumes he's working with and fact he directly smelled a chemical weapon. Usually to check chemical smells you wave some fumes over to you and not directly sniff.

It’s a secondary explosive meaning it requires pressure and heat to go off Primary explosives go off with either pressure or heat. Common primary explosives are blasting caps Common secondary explosives are like c4
