Hi Nile Red

hello
Ah yes chemistry: the only field in which one mistake could turn your cherry flavor into tear gas
Next time, on Nile Red: "Making crystal meth out of pig feces and composted tangerines!"

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.

Awesome how paint thinner, cancer vapor juice and ozone depletor juice combined to make either tear gas or cherry flavor, depending on the mood of the chemicals apparently.

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

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...

It's genuinely terrifying how close paint thinner, cherry flavor, and tear gas can be chemically
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.”
Nile can really go from accidentally creating tear gas, making cherry-flavored tear gas, to making benzaldehyde
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.)

I love these videos to either sleep to, or do something simple like crochet.

I love that you also put all your failed attempts in there, and how you continued from there. My science teacher said that if you always 100% something, you’ve never learnt anything, and it’s one of the truest things…failing shows you’re challenging yourself. I hope you’re having a good day and that you have fun evading the government while ordering a bunch of HCL and drain cleaner each month, along with many different restricted chemicals.

0:24 "Just like how horrible tasting and toxic paint thinner is." This guy is out there tasting paint thinner for us. Respect.
the fact that nile truly believed he had done everything perfectly, and it was only after he took a whiff that he realized he made tear gas instead of cherry flavour is exactly the reason why id be terrified of doing anything like this even if i knew it was theoretically safe.
"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.

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
If that tear gas was enough to cause trouble to Nile's smell system for hours, it would pretty much instantly kill us all in a single whiff
maybe this is secretly an origin story for Nigel's smell
@@brobeckskazooremixes8703 He did mention it's been 2 years since that ill fated first attempt
Imagine the British, French and Russian soldiers who experienced that first hand in WW1 or the Jews in WW2.

i feel like some chemists' definition of "explosive" is more along the lines of "i personally don't like working with this chemical" or "this chemical is liable to offgas enough to blow out joints in glassware"
chemistry teachers: "dont you dare come into proximity of salt water without protective glasses" nile red: *takes a deep sniff of a possible ww 1 tier gas*
Tear*
Nile's videos are like a movie. Everything seems to be working out fine, but then you realize that you're not even halfway through the plot yet
ok
@@vantruongthi9105 great job, best possible way anyone could claim the first reply, bravo
i like how nile narrates every sentence as if the next step ended in a catastrophy
lmfao it keeps us on our toes
The only time I ever wonder *if* something bad is going to happen is watching these videos. Every other time I'm just like okay, you say that like there's gonna be a "but".
thanks, Space Reptile!
Tbf it usually does
he be hypin' up the explosive fun times very much this time, his disappointment at the lack of such was fun too.
Me: How many times do you say 'in theor.. NileRed: Yes.
Thanks so much for this tutorial, as I am in a sticky situation where I need to make cherry soda and I only have paint thinner. 😊
Accidentally creating a WWI chemical weapon instead of Cherry flavor is such a NileRed thing to do
What if the "cherry story" is only to cover it from YT ?! HE IS EVIL ! lol
Between him and Tom (E&F) they're a walking war crime together lol
NileRed’s lawyer at the ICC: You see, my client was just trying to make cherry soda. Breaking the Geneva convention was just an accident.
Your honor my client claims "oopsy daisies"
The rules of war only apply to warzones, thats why i carry hollowpoints in my pistol and my wife carries pepper spray. Both are banned in war.
Love when nigel tells random people how to make tear gas!
Nilered: has finished with the benzaldehyde distillation already somehow Looks at timestamp "30 minutes left" *Something's wrong, I can feel it*
This man is the definition of quality over quantity.
Very true, I wish he uploaded more frequently but I know some of these videos take forever to produce. Always worth the wait.
yes
