I feel like the glow sticks in the giant blender was a fantastic idea but needs another try with the bigger version of those glow sticks. Run another experiment with the chonky ones! (and put some kind of triangular things in the corners to help create a vortex.)
I second this!! Chonky glow sticks for the win 🎉
they need a round blender to get a vortex that doesnt get stuck in the corners
Yes. The glowing liquid would be cool to see it mixing. They would need almost 100,000. Go guys.
i agree@@bappyplays
I was just going to comment this
I'm surprised the deodorant cans didn't start the fire. With the flammable aerosol contents, and metal fan blades slicing up metal cans, there's so much potential for sparks to ignite
To be brutally honest, I don't think it would have. . . It would have more likely been an explosion. The oxygen to aerated fuel igniting would have caused a MASSIVE explosion in my mind if it caught and the metal to metal wouldn't have been an issue tbh Iron to Iron is spark, I haven't seen aluminum throw sparks because its too soft compared to iron, but the heat from the motor could've done it. (Quick edit) If Aluminum to Iron would throw sparks and anyone has proof I'd gladly be proven wrong!
@Shad0wLeviathan NO WAY THAT USED TO BE MY PROFILE PICTURE THATS COOL
@@demithevampireking4285iron and aluminum can definitely throw sparks, it's called thermite 😛
Aluminum sparks? I didn't think soft metals could create sparks upon impact
Thermite is a reaction of iron Oxide and Aluminum oxide. @@willowmoon7

In a real blender, the container is shaped in a way that ensures a vortex forms that sucks the material under the blades, back up through the blades as they spin. You need to have some sort of cup shaped thingy underneath the blades, and corner rounder-offers in the four corners.

first sentence: Bill Nye second sentence: Science with Gaunson
I think it is a much bigger issue that air is a much thinner fluid than anything you put in a blender.
What Scott says makes perfect sense. In heat transfer, there is a mechanism called forced convection. The heat transfer coefficient needed to calculate heat transfer by forced convection depends on the flow velocity of the fluid or gas relative to the object the heat is transferred to. In your case, the flow velocity is determined by the speed of the rotating blades. The faster they rotate, the more heat is transferred to the blades. P.S.: Your videos are awesome. Please keep up the good work. Greetings from Germany
Remember the propane in the balloons vs. the arrow with sparklers? The surface of the blades is probably where the flammable liquid mixes fastest and most completely with oxygen from the air. That should create the same effect as an oxy-acetylene torch.
In summery, new heat 😆 🤣 ❤️
It's also the fact that metal is conductive.
ty for saving me the typing lol
This is the first time that "Science with Scott" actually made sense. And if you want to test it. Redo the same flaming cans of deodorant, but use an optical thermometer to check the temp. of the tips of the blades compared to the center parts of the blades. If you had an optical camera, like on some cell phones you could even see the differences on screen.
The final slowy at the end was just magical, guys! It looked like a portal to another dimension
“May I just say”… One of the best things I enjoy about your videos is your affection for each other which is always evident. May God continue to bless you and your charitable cause for all of His children.

I think the blender has the potential for a wicked fire tornado if you added flammable gas at the corners that released slowly and continually. Would look insane
This would indeed be wicked.
The glow sticks were beautiful especially the above shot, but i think the fatter ones would blend better. The above shot of the fire was beautiful too, as soon as the advert passed by and I backed it up to watch it all at once. Excellent video! ❤️🔥
Gaunson science is truly one of my favorite things in this channel. The difference between liquids and solids, thermodynamics, it doesn't matter. I love how he "explains" it all.
We need more How ridiculous at night, totally different vibes!
Totally agree 😂
Yerrrrrrrp

Totaly
@Editor Jack, I am really sad that when Gaunson started explaining why he thought the blades got hot was because they hit new flames, there was no “Science with Gaunson” bubble 😢
Because he was right for the first time.
He’s so almost completely right rather than just mostly. The blades spinning generates friction heat against the atmosphere, hitting particulates. The bursting cans are throwing more particulates into the air, making the atmosphere denser. Denser atmosphere, more particulates for the blades to hit, more heat. Just how a prove or space craft does during re-entry. I love it.
I get the distinct feeling gaunson is a secret genius and just playing a goofy clown. I know a thinker when I see one.
Rexy looking on from the bunker is priceless. “THANK GOODNESS I’m not in there!”
Love you guys' channel. I noticed that it is colder weather down under. A lower ambient temperature will slow the reaction in the glowsticks and they will produce less light than they would if they were warmed first. You could try soaking them in warm water first, or wait until the weather gets hotter to have your best chance at brighter glowsticks.
The blades are heating up really fast from metal on metal friction. I remember, someone dropped a lock from a shipping container, under the container. We happened to be moving the container that day, the lock got dragged maybe 5 feet by the container, the guy without thinking picked it up, and got immediate 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his hand.
That not nearly enough friction to heat up the blades that much. You could throw in 100 empty cans and it wouldn’t change the temp of the blades by even a fraction of a degree. It’s the fire and the blades moving would only make it less hot.
@@LC-sh6wd Air can totally cause friction or rather, an effect similar to friction which is compression. An object moving through the air at high speed does have wind resistance, yes, but that doesn't actually cause much friction, it causes the air to compress, compressing things heats it up so the blades are compressing the air in front of them which causes the blades to absorb that heat. It isn't significant, the fire is defiantly doing more to heat the blades than the heat caused by the compression along such relatively small surface areas, but it is there. Occam's Razor, though, says the blades are mostly just hot because you lit them on fire.
What metal on metal friction? You mean the cans? They blend thicker metal than that all the time and the blades never heated up before. Mr newheat is kinda correct. that is a factor. that's how convection ovens work. But the real issue you can see in the videos. When the cans explode they burn up all the air in the blender, and the only places that keep burning are where the flames are meeting new air that still has unburnt O2 in it. and one of these places you will notice is the corners of the blender, as it isnt air tight. So that means the spinning blade was sucking in all the air through the corners and it was combusting right on top of the blades with a high volume of air flowing by. If you know anything about combustion or blacksmithing, you will know that if you blow on a flame, it gets hotter, and that blender blade is basically a really powerful fan.
those blades arent going mach 2... @@ShiningDarknes
Nice discussion guys. As for it not being fast enough, or enough metal... The example I gave was for a reason... a pad lock.. approximately 1.5 inches by 3 inches by 1/2 an inch... was dragged by a shipping container, for approximately 3 seconds, at a pace of about 1 foot per second. That padlock reached temperatures in excess of 1000F, and held that temperature for several minutes. While we laughed at the guy who grabbed it, the truth is he held it for a fraction of a second and took over a month to recover from the burns. And that is because of something that one of you touched on... Temperature is not really associated with friction, it is associated with pressure. As pressure increases, volume decreases and temperature increases. The pressure caused by the blades is very high, that high pressure needs one of the other two parts of the triangle to be controlled for the third to change. If the container was open, volume was able to change on it's own, the force of the blades dissipating into the air, then it would balance out the pressure and temperature would not change. But... it isn't open, at least not enough. So the blades build pressure, the enclosed environment limits volume, the only other part that must change is temperature. And this is the basis of every cooling system we make, just in reverse. Without the metal, the blades and the air, will still get hot. But with the metal, you have an added conductive material. That material is making very short contact, but is doing it a lot, at a very high speed. In this case, the metal on metal is greatly increasing the pressure back against the blades. Where normally the pressure does push out, this pushes a lot of it back, and concentrates the pressure, thus concentrating the heat, near and inside of the blades. Now... for the fire... fire works by combustion and convection. Heat will transfer to objects that are either combustible or in proximity to the convection. As stated, the blades are basically a big fan. So they very effectively move air away from themselves, which greatly reduces convection, and being metal they have no combustion at this level, not until you get much, much hotter. So no matter how hot the flame gets, it is in a terrible position to actually heat of the blades. In fact, I would challenge you, in a safe environment, place a fan, above a fire, and test how long it takes to heat up the fan while it is running. You may find that the fire is extinguished by the fan moving air away from it, long before it is able to heat up from any form of combustion or convection. Conclusion, the heat from the fire is negligible, the heat caused by the pressure increase and transmitted by the high conductivity of metal is greater. To test, check the temperature of the blades before and after experiments with similar amounts of conductive and non-conductive materials. I will not be testing this large scale, but I have tested it small scale.
Night shoots always just have a totally different vibe that I love, but these ones especially are just phenomenal. The fire, sparks, and glowsticks just look absolutely stunning
Why are the chips in the fridge?
Asking the real questions here
From my experience australians put everything in the fridge.
12:00 You guys captured some incredible reference footage for properly tuning the light exposure of your CGI explosions and the following fire.
You should not have activated the glow sticks before! I feel like the blender would do that once its starts hitting them, that would surely give a nice effect seeing them turning on bit by bit!
To be fair, the reaction of the glow sticks lighting up requires them to be tightly packed together which is why if u hadn’t activated them it would have simply done some glow in the dark splatter which would be quite dim or just not glowing at all. The light comes from the reaction of the two chemicals inside mixing, and the blades would just split them up before they could mix and create light
@@ethandoyle4522I'm not convinced. Perhaps a scale test in a regular blender. 🤔
@@robertthompson3447 perhaps you should be less rude and just look it up for yourself 🫤
@@robertthompson3447 and I don’t want to make my blender toxic…
@@ethandoyle4522 Sounds more like youve explained away your own science.
Maybe you should try making the blender and the enclosure waterproof and hold water. Blending items like paint cans in a whirlpool would look amazing
I was thinking the same thing
@@therealdeal-uh4zhabsolutely impossible with this blender
@@noni9pr33 then they should make a separate blender and have a water buffalo on standby. It's not impossible, just more intricate
@@therealdeal-uh4zh yes, a different could maybe do it 😁
And where would they put all the waste paint, that lender would hold an tonne if it was full. Great idea, I do like the thought of seeing paint creating a marble cake type effect but I don't think it would be practical, unless they sell the blended mix on the website?
Thanks for doing what you do, guys. I love watching your videos, especially when my anxiety plays up they help me zone out and relax. Much love 😄👍🏻
If you did it with like 20x as many glow sticks and positioned the slow mo cam just right above the blender it would make for a really good screensaver ngl.
In my opinion the glowstick slow motion from above is probably one of the best slow motion captures on this channel
Not a chance.
You must be new to this channel xD
That was my favorite shot of this video. But I do feel like the footage in this video is some well done stuff.

Mad respect to whoever was responsible for closing and securing the door, during the night shots. When the door pin didn't go in right away on the 1000 sparklers blend I was genuinely scared for whoever was doing that job.
it cant be that hard to shut the door 💀
@@AidanMcDowell-ez1ny i mean, have you ever tried to shut a door that big within a small time margin? its easier when you have more time. but when youre against the clock, things seem to be harder to do
Super awesome vidoe gents! Loved the glow sticks the most
The blades heated so quickly because most flammable liquids like gasoline or most solvents burn hotter than a regular flame from wood. The jet fuel burning from 9/11 is what took the towers down. It melted the frame of the building because it burned so hot.
Nighttime fire-blending, the new best thing I didn't know I needed until now :D
You should try powdered coffee creamer and sparklers in the blender. You can get some really impressive fireballs with it.
i’ve seen the creamer episode on myth busters. it would be fantastic to see in the blender!
Fuel air bombs are not to be played with. They are the second most explosive type of explosives after nukes...

Loved the night filming. I don’t think we have seen that since you stayed overnight at the tower in a little house where you pranked Heron for being late. You dropped glow sticks from the top and it looked awesome.
Agree
I think that newheat is potentially a small factor in the heating of the blades, since it does technically get closer to more hot particles. but I doubt it did much, steel( as all metals) is a pretty good conductor, so it absorbs heat quite quick. also, it being 4 cm thick doesn’t matter too much, because you were only feeling the heat on the surface, it was probably a little cooler inside. Those flames will have easily got to over 1000 degrees C , for about 5 seconds, that’s quite a lot of heat they’re baking in. Awesome
I had an idea, attach four flamethrowers to the four corners of the blender to create a fire tornado, so you guys could put whatever you want to burn on top of the blender. please do this ❤❤❤ love u guys.
The heating of the blades was most likely just due to exposure to flames. Friction may have some effect, but there isn't a lot of mass to the cans of hairspray so there isn't a great deal of energy to be transferred to the blades. The blades rotate, so the return to their original positions frequently and therefore don't really get exposed to flame it hasn't seen recently. One way to test this is to burn the hairspray with the blades off and see how hot they get compared with when the blades are on.
Those shots from the top of the blender were everything - especially the glow sticks!
Is it me or was the camera work on another level in this video? The walking from out of focus to in focus, night shots, etc seemed extra good. Not sure if there's new cameras or what but it was excellent 👌
The glow sticks look cool but nothing beats the glow sticks from the tower on the tiny house! Oh man. Derek's reaction to getting stuff thrown on him in the middle of the night was almost as funny as the boys laughing at the top. Oh the old days! 🤣🤣🤣
I love your guys content. You always make me laugh and your content is always so interesting! God Bless y'all. Keep making content!
That top down view of the glow sticks might be a top 3 or 5 for me of all time. It was amazing honestly.
Convection is the quickest form of heat transfer, it's why stirring things as they cook helps heat them up. By constantly cycling the fluid (air, water, etc), you are always replacing the colder boundary layer fluid with warmer fluid.
So...what you're saying is...team New Heat were kind of right?
They were exactly right :)
@@jackdavis756 What a turn up for the books! 😂
the movement of air and material can contribute to heat factors, think of a convectional oven moving around hot air vs just placing food in a hot environment. The movement of air allows heat to transfer quicker to the object its exposed to.
You guys continue to amaze and entertain me. Love your videos, your reactions, and your crazy antics.

So as a photographer I’d be very interested in doing or seeing some long exposure still shots of the sparklers or glow sticks. I think it could cause some cool effects kinda like a fire work sort of look, being able to track specific sparklers and glow sticks as they move through the blender.
That GoPro footage of the fire from above is amazing
Dry Ice is the solid form of C02. It sublimates directly from a solid to gaseous form which is why it's called dry ice. It only takes it's liquid form under pressure like when it's in a tank.
The glowsticks might be one of the coolest things I've ever seen on this channel. That was soooo mesmerizing!!

BLEND IDEA! Blend a whole bunch of magnesium, once it’s blended leave it in there and quick drop a fiery source into there while it blends and watch the magic as it makes a whole bunch of sparkles in a (hopefully) swirling glory
8:22 44 sparklers with 44 cans of shaving cream would be insane!
It looks like a giant lantern! (8:08)
You’ll want to take a look at the discipline of heat transfer. My hypothesis is that the dominating mechanism of heat transfer here was convection of the hot air over the fast-moving fan blades that caused them to heat up quickly. Imagine you are a very tiny person able to stand on the blades as they are rotating. All you would feel is a bunch of hot air moving by you really fast. It is the same reason why wind chill makes it feel colder than the ambient temperature, and the faster the wind, the colder it feels.
rockin the look Stanford and as always another fantastic video.
For me out of this whole entire blender series we seem to be getting, nothing will beat blending that fridge man I laughed for days after seeing that man well done lads

the fuel is oxygen starved in the center of the vortex. As more air is pulled in from the corners and sides it allows for a continual combustion. IF you had holes in the bottom to allow airflow upwards, it would have been ONE MASSIVE FLASH and over or a series of flashes as each can burst upon impact with the blades.
and steel heats rather rapidly under continuous flame. think of your sauté pan

You need a remote triggered compressed air cannon on the bottom\floor so you can blast the stuff stuck under the blades upwards.

Just when I thought the 5x fire blender was the best visual in this video, the glowstick ocean pleasantly surprised me! Great vid as always boys!
hey i absolutely love this video i just wanted to comment to make sure this was taken into account, dry ice being used all at once like that produces massive clouds of gas that will kill anything in it for too long due to the lack of oxygen. it looks like this was done in a big open field which is great! but i dont know if there is any forest near by where any animals could potentially get harmed, or how long it actually takes these clouds to dissipate or how far they potentially could travel before dissipating to a safe degree. im not sure if you already have, but i highly recommend consulting someone who WOULD know these things.
The top down view of the glow sticks looks like the visuals from an ahayusca/DMT journey. Really cool image!, perhaps try it with more sticks for an even mor insane effect?, 1 stick for every 1000 of your veiwers is 19,200 sticks :)
