Very Heavy Cube 

All of our human interaction was filmed before THE OUTBREAK... I've just been living in a cave by myself eating bugs waiting for this whole thing to blow over. Also your mother says hi, and to wash your hands, and to stay away from people, and to change your underwear once in a while for cryin out loud.

I found his review on this an amazon it reads “*heavy boi* Almost impossible to pick up with one hand. It came well packaged in a wooden crate and lots of foam. I’m gonna smash stuff with it.” -So I love that and felt the need to share

"Hey, we'll sponsor your video! What do you want?" "Cube." "You know we'll give you quite a bit of money for this, right? And you just want a cube?" "Expensive cube" "Well alright, you're the boss"

As a wise man once said in an Amazon review, "All the people here who bought this wireless tungsten cube to admire its surreal heft have precisely the wrong mindset. I, in my exalted wisdom and unbridled ambition, bought this cube to become fully accustomed to the intensity of its density, to make its weight bearable and in fact normal to me, so that all the world around me may fade into a fluffy arena of gravitational inconsequence. And it has worked, to profound success. I have carried the tungsten with me, have grown attached to the downward pull of its small form, its desire to be one with the floor. This force has become so normal to me that lifting any other object now feels like lifting cotton candy, or a fluffy pillow. Big burly manly men who pump iron now seem to me as little children who raise mere aluminum. I can hardly remember the days before I became a man of tungsten. How distant those days seem now, how burdened by the apparent heaviness of everyday objects. I laugh at the philistines who still operate in a world devoid of tungsten, their shoulders thin and unempowered by the experience of bearing tungsten. Ha, what fools, blissful in their ignorance, anesthetized by their lack of meaningful struggle, devoid of passion. Nietzsche once said that a man who has a why can bear almost any how. But a man who has a tungsten cube can bear any object less dense, and all this talk of why and how becomes unnecessary. Schopenhauer once said that every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. Tungsten expands the limits of a man’s field of vision by showing him an example of increased density, in comparison to which the everyday objects to which he was formerly accustomed gain a light and airy quality. Who can lament the tragedy of life, when surrounded by such lightweight objects? Who can cry in a world of styrofoam and cushions? Have you yet understood? This is no ordinary metal. In this metal is the alchemical potential to transform your world, by transforming your expectations. Those who have not yet held the cube in their hands and mouths will not understand, for they still live in a world of normal density, like Plato’s cave dwellers. Those who have opened their mind to the density of tungsten will shift their expectations of weight and density accordingly. To give this cube a rating of anything less than five stars would be to condemn life itself. Who am I, as a mere mortal, to judge the most compact of all affordable materials? No. I say gratefully to whichever grand being may have created this universe: good job on the tungsten. It sure is dense. I sit here with my tungsten cube, transcendent above death itself. For insofar as this tungsten cube will last forever, I am in the presence of immortality." -the fucking demigod that made this review

You know, the idea that dropping a cube of tungsten onto somebodys head from the top of a skyscraper would hurt them is actually a myth.

"if someone throws a tungsten cube at you" Will, if someone has the strength to throw a tungsten cube at you so it has enough force to reach you, then I would be far more afraid of that person.

Me: can we get Slow Mo Guys Mom: We have Slow Mo Guys at home *Slow Mo Guys at home:*

You know you’re gonna have a good time when a pianist, a failed myth buster, and a dumb scientist happen to be in the same backyard

Fun fact about tungsten: tung in Swedish is heavy, and sten is rock, so tungsten is literally just named *heavy rock*

“I don’t have a fat cousin any more” “He was so fat he went through the trampoline?” “No, heart disease”

Fun fact: When they were developing crazy high frame rate slow motion cameras, this is *exactly* the kind of content that they hoped someone would someday make. Scientists everywhere thank you for your doing the experiments that their bosses won't allow at work. The bosses also won't let you take home a $2000 high precision high purity tungsten cube, just to play with.

I love how Daniel Thrasher appears out of absolutely no where and is just shown casually being held

I love how dry William's humor is. "He was too fat" "Fell right through the trampoline?" "No, heart disease." so golden

“If you can dodge a tungsten cube, you can dodge a ball” -Rip Torn, “Dodgeball”

“This tungsten cube cured my mortality”

11:09 if someone throws a cube of tungsten at you, you should first get out of the way, and second, you should reconsider fighting someone that can throw a cube of tungsten

I love how the cube just straight up doesn’t even slow down when it hits anything. It just keeps bloody going.

"Mom Can we get The Slomo guys?" "We already have The Slomo guys at home" The Slomo guys at home:

Its fascinating that at no point during the video, especially after the human skull vs coconut test, did anyone seem to question why they aren't wearing life saving hard hats. That being said, coconut in a hard hat would have been a pretty good test.

i love that the ballistic gel model human head is just sitting there in the background like an obvious next step, a Chekhov's gun that is never fired

Imagine being google and sponsoring him and he buys a giant metal cube

"Right fast, isn't it?" "Rather rapid." 10/10 reactions

It's funny how 45lb really isn't that heavy, but the density of it being in a 4x4in cube makes it suddenly feel like it "weighs a ton" and "will smash anything"

Allen, Jabrils, and Daniel Thrasher appearing in this video is amazing. William, you make the most legendary video collabs ever.

"The only difference between science and messing around is writing it down" -Adam Savage

at this point WIlliam is just trying to see how many times he can get evicted by a landlord

okay, seeing Daniel Thrasher was wild and random lmao. always awesome when multiple people u watch collaborate together or even cameo.

Tungsten makes for really great fishing weights. Being harder than lead, it transmits vibration much better, while keeping a much smaller profile with the same amount of weight

Typical youtuber title: "I SPENT 2000 DOLLARS ON WHAT?" Will: "very heavy cube"

Fun fact: In Danish, "Tung" means heavy, and "Sten" means rock, therefore, "Tungsten" literally means, Heavyrock, a very fitting name.

its impossible to be sad when it comes to Allen. his happiness is so contagious and I just love his energy.

I love how the Microwave at the end actually gets pressed down into the sand so that the glass plate & chicken are floating in mid-air when they get annihilated by the Cube™

William Osman in 2017: I built a mechanical TV! William Osman in 2020: *HEAVY CUBE*

Daniel Thrasher on William Osman? The crossover I didn't know I needed.

respect for whoever carried it back up every time

Fun fact you guys didn't know, Osmium is the densest metal in periodic table !

The most unexpected thing in this video honestly is a wild Daniel Thrasher appearing out of nowhere

Man, I hate it when my microwave can’t stop a falling tungsten cube from ruining my rotisserie chicken

When I eat the entire Taco Bell menu. The toilet: 9:15

This makes tungsten rods dropped from space even more scary.

" i had a fat cousin " " Fell through the trampoline? " " No, heart disease. " Holy shit i lost it

"If someone throws a tungsten cube at you, you need to get out of the way." Wise Words of William

I just remember watching this when it first came out at the very start of the pandemic and feeling so comforted by it. Like, “hey everything is going to shit, but at least we still have William Osman”

Good job on the Tungsten, it sure is dense

I love how they get really uncomfortable to the fact that they realize how dangerous the dropping was mid way to the video

“Closed toed shoes for everyone, except Will” “I’m wearing cro-“ Cue toilet being demolished

I love how Daniel is featured but never mentioned in the title but I came back to watch this I was really surprised that he actually made an appearance. Of course this is before I knew him soo-

ive literally seen this video 10 times, it never ever gets old

Is no one gonna talk about how Daniel Thrasher was just *there*

i love that after toilet smashing there is a cut and next time we see them everything is just smeared with blood and nobody acknowledges it

William osman, Allen pan, Jabrils, and Daniel thrasher is a group I didn’t know I needed content for until now

the way the toilet tank just drops back and breaks after The Cube obliterates the bowl is further proof that a dying toilet has more comedic timing than me

Imagine the guy at google that’s looking at their expenses and just being like who the fu@k bought a 2k cube.

9:52 I was hoping for _"Is It A Good Idea To Microwave A Tungsten Cube?"_ but I guess _"Is It A Good Idea To Tungsten Cube A Microwave?"_ works

"Wow, that is very flat." -William Osman 2020

"It's a good thing we aerosolized it so we can breathe more."

William: *spends 2000 on a metal cube that does nothing by itself* Also William: *doesn't want to spend 60 on a functional food disposal*

Normal RU-vid: pay me for this sponsorship William: buy me this dense cube

Platinum, iridium, osmium all have much higher densities. And are easily purchased. Although they would be MUCH more expensive then tungsten.

"No, heart disease." Fricken kek will. I love all you guys and your vids and brilliant mind.

This was litterally a concept for a military weapon. The idea was to drop tungsten rods the size of a telephone pole from space resulting in a force equivalent to a nuclear weapon but without the effects of radiation fallout. Look up the "Rods from God. "

Other elements: "If you put me in a beaker with another element I will set the beaker on fire and then explode." Tungsten: "Lawd I am 🅷🅴🅵🆃🆈."

A...wild...DANIEL THRASHER!? Great job sir, this is very beautiful

I, in my exalted wisdom and unbridled ambition, bought this cube to become fully accustomed to the intensity of its density, to make its weight bearable and in fact normal to me, so that all the world around me may fade into a fluffy arena of gravitational inconsequence.

“ this means if it crushes this coconut this cube could kill you” *atomizes the coconut*

Are we gonna ignore the fact that Google Play sponsored this dude He was sponsored by Google Play. Which is the property of Google. Google sponsored this dude. And he bough a very heavy cube.

I would watch an Hour of this!!

Fun fact: In 1928 General Electric tried to patent Tungsten

They actually execute criminals with Tungsten cubes like this in the future.

Okay but dying by getting a Tungsten cube dropped directly onto your head seems weirdly comical. I, too, desire heavy cube

Just imagine the precision if you attached a scope to the dropping device

Cube: gets a scratch after obliterating the toilet. Cube: "All that for a drop of blood."

0:35 William: blurs the ford logo Also William: “My 1998 *Ford* Taurus station wagon”

Three of my favorite RU-vidrs… Beautiful…

William Osman is a man who brings technical RU-vidrs together

“If you look closely here, you can see that the microwave is *completely* destroyed.” “Are you sure?”

FUN FACT: tungsten literally translates to ''heavy rock'' in Swedish

This cube cured my mortality.

6:14 that is a very graphic image when you take into account the fact Allan had just said its as hard as a human skill

It is so weird to see Daniel hanging out with people who are not himself.

Fun fact: "Tung sten" directly translates into "Heavy rock" in Swedish (and probably Norwegian and Danish)

Assuming that the stories of the house are about the normal 14ft (and it look to be falling from the third story see 4:31) the cube would be traveling at ~15.8 m/s by the time is lands. This gives the cube about 2360 joules of energy, which is almost 4 1/2 times the muzzle energy of a 45 ACP round.

I didn't know Daniel Thrasher when this came out. Now I do and I'm happy!

"I don't have a fat cousin anymore" "He died of heart disease" *Allen proceeds to laugh*

William: has a multi-floor modern house and 2,000 dollar cube but still drives a car he probably found in a junk yard

Definitely needed a pirate-y, "ARE YOU READY KIDS?!?!" for the kumquat imo. Quality content.

williams videos make me feel so warm and comfortable even when destroying various objects with a large cube of tungsten. cheers

My brain can't even comprehend that it's actually that heavy and they aren't faking it.

When you find out your favourite characters are a part of the same universe

10:27 the chicken and the plate are like frozen in time for a few frames after impact. magical

This cube cured my mortality

Fun fact: “tung sten” in Danish is “heavy rock”

Daniel thrasher being in a different channel other than his: *IT AIN’T FAMILIAH*

Wait, I passed over this video so many times, I had NO idea there were THIS many guests on it!

Nice to see Allen pan finally living out his dream as a myth buster

Fun fact: “tungsten” is Swedish for literally “heavy rock”

Why does everyone live with you? Like wtf now Daniel Thrasher?

Tungsten literally translates from Swedish to "heavy stone"

My dream is to have a big tungsten cube. I don't know why I just LOVE heavy dense small things. I'd have so much fun with a simple cube.

William Osman - "Lets drop a hunk of Tungsten from 3 stories!" Jerry Pournelle - "Lets drop a 20ft long rod of Tungsten from space!"
