This is the video thousands of you have been waiting for. After the success of my previous apple-in-water time lapse (What if you left an apple in water for 202 days?), I've listened to your feedback and taken the experiment to the next level. This time, the apple is fully submerged for an entire year using a gooseneck from a pop filter to keep it down.

Fun fact:
Apples are made up of 25% air, which is why they float in water.

1st UPDATE: The last version of this video received 400K likes. If this one gets 450K likes, I'll begin a 5-year time lapse of an apple in water. Let's make this happen! It would be longer than the "Whole watermelon" one :D 2nd UPDATE: A lot of you asked for microscope video of the apple. It's already up on my channel! Read the following if you don't know what this video is about, and you need some context: Following the feedback on my last apple-in-water time lapse, (Title: What if you left an apple in water for 202 days?- 16M views, 400k likes, 17K comments) from nearly 2 years ago, many of you wanted the apple to be submerged for the entire experiment. In that video, the stubborn apple resurfaced after a 38 days. I didn't want to interfere with the time lapse, so I continued filming it like that. I pinned a comment under it to gauge interest in a new experiment, and the response was amazing! With 76,000 likes on that comment, it was clear that you wanted to see this happen. Thanks to your input, I've now kept the apple underwater for a full year using a gooseneck from a pop filter. Even with this setup the apple wanted to escape once, but I put it back into the water. :) Enjoy my new attempt at the apple-in-water time lapse, and I appreciate your continued support! If you shared this video with someone that would be a huge boost, thank you!

So for anyone wondering, the two layers on the top are the pectin from apple (to really oversimplify it, it's a sugar acid that lines the walls of terrestrial fruits and this is what becomes the jam part of fruit jam) and the layer on top of it is a thick colony of algae, which are just tiny cells that form these green colonies, basically. If you have a freshwater aquarium you have to clean them out, like, all the time. This is also the reason why it didn't smell bad or rotten, nothing here was rotting - the algae were probably feeding off pectin and with a film THAT thick, no air and no bacteria were making it to pectin, so the only smell you get is the smell of algae, and they smell of, well, pond.
❤❤❤
Thank you winjin
Soo is it safe to eat since eats not rotten?
yeah sure, pectin... F*ck Isaac Newton and his laws. In an apple the amount of pectin is roughly 1% of its weight. And since it's not a living thing and cannot reproduce itself and grow you can't yield so freaking much of it. So both layers of film are some kind of fungi or, simply put, wild yeast. They are anaerobic and are found widely on fruits and in atmosphere itself. They also had eaten all of the sugars from an apple and by sugars I mean complex one as cellulose and pectin as well.
Sounds like it becomes just apple plus algae jam?
Finally someone who captured the essence of apple products.

Interesting fact: The gelatinous substance that raised to the top of the water is called pectin. Traditionally, apple peels were added to fruit jams, marmalade and compotes during the cooking to make them thicker and give them a jelly consistency.

This is fascinating! I am interested in the other variables in this experiment. For example, was this tap water, purified water, spring water, distilled water, and what about the lighting or the temperature of the water, etc.? Thanks!
It’s like it is turning color as the days go by.
I didn't expect it to be so much less rotten. Judging by the gunk on top, the sugars probably fermented into vinegar and that slowed down further rot. That, plus the gunk preventing oxygen from reaching the apple. Now I really want to see an apple in CO2 or pure nitrogen. Or at least an airtight container.
There is a reason we have fermented food to preserve it for so long.
If I remember correctly, just having it submerged in water also prevents oxygen from reaching it no? I mean it kinda looked fully edible until day 8, in regular conditions that wouldn't happen Also is it just me every byproduct of that apple after the year felt really edible for some reason
@@ghetoknight7801 yes and no, it does prevent aerobic bacteria to work because that needs oxygen to work which helps to delay rotting and oxidation (that's why you put cut apple into water with lemon for it to not change color as quickly as it would normally). Problem is that water itself is a solvent it will react with stuff that apple is made of in a different way alone not to mention anaerobic bacteria. Also idk what apples you know but apples are fairly stable hell those thing can be stored for months with correct conditions and even normally when you buy an apple it takes a while to start changing.

Respect to this man for waiting a year to upload this
Thank you so much! I finally know how our schools prepare their “pears”.
I am SO interested in seeing what some of these things look like under a microscope after the whole process. I'm sure the water is absolutely teeming with microbes, and I wonder what the sludge on the surface is mostly composed of (a bacterial mat, possibly?). I bet the cellular structure of the apple would also be visibly broken down. If you see this comment, I'd love if you took the microscope idea into consideration!
Yeah that would be the most amazing thing
thats a great idea!! i think it would add a lot to the videos in a scientific sense
The stuff on top kinda looked like mother of vinegar
The pectin of the apple, I'd say. As well as bacterial matting. Apples have a ton of pectin, and it leeches out and makes a jelly.
@@zellafae ahh that's what i thought too. It's really resemble the layer from natural apple vinegar
I may be a little late to this but this is really cool! The reason that the apple is so soft and falls apart is not because of the water but because the bacteria that is present everywhere no matter what, was able to multiply by eating away at the cellulose and cellulose is just block chains of glucose. Which is why NileRed does the stuff he does.
Thanks genius

HOW
This made me laugh more than I like to admit
@@sub_toLennonprobably flood
@@sub_toLennonHe's British
I almost drowned (asphyxiated from lack of air not from inhaling water) in the rain once. I was skating home only 2.5 miles because the nice clear sky had the most ominous incoming cloud Ive ever seen in person and halfway home I got caught in it. It was a derecho with 80-100mph gusts. Half my town didnt even get any rain while one line of neighborhoods had trees ripped up and walls knocked down. It was raining so much so fast that I had to hug a tree and look straight down to get an air pocket and was on the verge of passing out. The water level on the sidewalk in areas was at the top of my foot on top of my skateboard so like 4-6 inches in spots within a span of less than 5 minutes. I collapsed on my kitchen floor when I got home and saw the sun coming out. I swear I was more wet than jumping in a swimming pool fully clothed
This video is so creepy but I liked it 😊 The experiment is very nice🤩
the seeds just act like pimples now
It would be cool to examine some of that water and moss under the microscope after the 365 days to see what kind of stuff was growing there.

As someone who owned an aquarium, it's probably just a very thick colony of your normal everyday algae, feeding off the nutrient-rich water that is this diluted apple juice.
Had a similar idea, imagine making a whole ecosystme based on well, an apple underwater.
The fact that it near instantly withered after being left out of the water is insane! Pretty cool!

@@artemdorin R.I.P Apple.
To be fair that apple was in effect an aborted apple tree child who was unceremoniously murdered horrifically for our amusement. Kinda sucks to be a sessile organism doesn't it.
I wonder what difference it would make with lower oxygen concentration in the water, like it sometimes happens at the bottom of a lake.
I think the oxygen concentration dropped pretty quickly... bacteria and fungi that grew there at first used up most of the oxygen, and the container was (not perfectly but) sealed
Tbh I'm surprised no one here (of the comments I've read so far) actually knows what happened here! People have been brewing apple cider (the British alcoholic beverage) for centuries this way. There is natural yeast on all fruit skins that feeds on the sugars of the apple releasing alcohol and carbon dioxide (original carbonation before modern times). It's nothing to do with the oxygen in the water. At some point the yeast converted all the fructose sugars into alcohol and died off or created an environment for itself that has an alcohol volume that it can't survive in (whichever came first). Eventually the apple cider would have soured into apple cider vinegar. That's all that happened.
@@ekaterinastacey3132I believe the second layer of goop on top is an acetobacter colony, which are the bacteria that convert alcohol into acetic acid "souring" the cider.
Well My friend has a apple tree over a pond so let Me enlighten you, Algae forms at the top, and rotton plant matter (Apples) create methane, at the bottom, plants at the top live in and around the water.
@@ekaterinastacey3132 Yes however alcohol creation is done with the removal of mold and other life, and that is why the container is air tight and CO2 is released by a tap valve.

i really don't think it's gonna be beneficial. this stuff has been examined for years in all sorts of mediums, that's how fermentation (and rotting, which is the same exept not beneficial) produced penicillin in the first place. that's also how the mother of vinegar was discovered, that first layer, dark and hardened jello, is most likely a bunch of bacteria that conglomerated and produced a biofilm, is a similar process that the vinegar-making bacteria produce which you can take and put in a new container with apple juice. at the end, mother of vinegar is just bacteria.rar
