Melting Stuff With the Sun!Added:
What a nice time to be gummy bears and just be sunbathing and having a fun time and all that. It's very It's way too hot to sunbathe today.
Oh my gosh. Oh no. Oh no.
Oh yo, Tip, what happened, bro?
>> Oh, >> is it hot?
>> Yeah, it's hot and it's just completely melted. A really bad day to be a gummy bear sunbathing. Those guys like mix together.
>> A >> Oh, dude.
>> That's what's left of the gummy bear family.
Now my hands all sticky.
>> I mean, there's some remnants.
>> So, today is science experiment day. We made something. Hold on. You need your your special, but they make it so you're like not blinded.
>> What does that even mean? I think it's just like a you just everything is just green.
>> Yeah. So you don't blind yourself. This thing will literally blind you.
>> Solar death ray. I proof.
>> Oh, you can't say solar Day because YouTube doesn't like >> It's a solar ray.
>> It's a solar fun ray.
>> This here is the solar funray. I don't really know how it works. I know. Like the glass is like special. It's like a magnifying glass. It like concentrates the sun on something and it gets really hot and it melts stuff. Yeah. It's called Fresno glass and it's like this like mega magnifying glass. You can find the the Fresno glass in like those old school big giant TVs, but this thing is like a mega magnifying glass and it will melt anything today. We got a bunch of crap here stuff here. We're going to see what it does. So, we got a a regular magnifying glass. Let's see what it does to a leaf. Starts to burn the leaf a little.
>> Solar funray. I don't know if the leaf is going to be so all right after this if it stays.
>> Dude, this is Dude, >> so it's a little more powerful.
>> A little. Next, we got popcorn. I want to see if this works. Do you think we'll have some nice popcorn to eat?
>> I don't know. You think it's going to pop it?
>> I feel like it'll pop it, but I don't think you're going to eat it. I feel like it's just going to be like destroyed.
>> Dude, I'm like doing not so good.
>> Come on now. Get it right.
>> I'm trying.
>> There you go.
Did it just catch it on fire? Is it going to pop? No, >> it's just on fire. I was expecting some popcorn. It's It's I'm pretty sure it's just catching it on fire. Bro, >> it's supposed to pop the popcorn.
Have to like >> There you go.
Come on. Popcorn. Maybe it just needs to get really hot for it to pop.
>> Dude, I I don't think it's going to do it.
It just turned it black.
>> Next, we got some some water to see if it'll boil.
>> And I think that's all.
>> Oh, it might not hit the water.
>> I don't think it's like It's going straight through. I think it's definitely melting the bottom of the cup.
>> Melt the side of the cup. The water is like putting out the the heat so it won't go through.
>> There's like a big leak, though.
>> Watch this. Let's boil the water. So, here.
>> It's burning the brick.
>> Yo, it melts the brick.
>> How is that even possible, bro?
>> What could we melt? No batteries.
Nothing with a battery.
>> We could try and melt the pencil.
>> Pencil. Next. Next on the on the chopping block. Your glasses. You look like a >> Do I look tough?
>> You look like you're going to like drive a NASCAR or something.
That should be our next video.
>> Oh, the pencil just catch right on fire.
Dude, the lead in there. I don't know what it's going to do to it. See if you can cut it in half. It smells like burning pencil. We'll move. I don't want to stick my hand in here. Melt the other side. Right there.
>> No. It's probably pretty easy to snap in half though.
>> That it is. I try the eraser.
It stinks like rubber. I mean, it burned it, that's for sure.
>> What do you think would happen if your shoulder death rate the glass on the magnifying glass?
>> Yeah, maybe it the magnifying glass will like triple in strength. That >> it's definitely just going right through.
>> Yeah, it's going right through. It doesn't do nothing. All right, we got to find two more things. Two more things.
That's it. What if >> we try a Nerf dart?
>> Nerf dart? That's next.
>> Should we try this? I I feel like it's not going to stick.
>> Oh, dang.
>> Instantly on fire. Oh, instantly melted.
Do the the front.
It just turned. Dude, that Nerf dart is like >> I mean I feel like that went well.
>> Sand. We could make glass.
>> Do you know that when I like used to uh hike out in the woods, I would find a chunk of glass every once in a while like just on the ground like buried kind of. It's where lightning strikes it.
Lightning would hit it and it would like create glass. You know what? We'll do a lemon >> and then sand.
>> And then sand. Seeing the lemons on the tree are like, "I hope we're not."
>> Lemons don't have brains, dude. I don't think they think.
>> What? This one does. You're ready for the amount of fun. What's about to happen?
>> See, it hits the lemon, like the liquid in the lemon, and it like kind of makes it not as >> It's like boiling it. Do you hear that?
>> Yeah. Keep it on there. It looks like the lemon is glowing.
>> You can see the inside. Is there a hole in it? There's definitely a hole in it.
Can you see? It's like it's burning its way through. I think if it just sat there, it would just burn.
>> Is there a burn on the other side?
>> No, it didn't go through yet. Cuz I think the the lemon the liquid like really cools it off.
>> All right. So, these are the fun fun glasses. It's time to burn Oreo. All right. Is everyone ready?
>> Everyone's ready.
>> Okay.
>> And it's immediately on fire. It's probably just melting the stuff. It could be cuz it's not a real Oreo. It's It's a Trader Joe's Oreo. I think it's still on fire.
>> Is it?
>> Yeah. I don't know. It's smoking.
>> I know. You eat it.
>> It's like toasted Oreo.
>> Ah, it's hot.
>> Well, yeah. It's going to be hot.
>> Mm- >> hot.
>> Wa. Oh, yeah.
>> Toasted Oreo is disgusting. Can you >> It tastes like I'm eating charcoal, >> dude. I could smell that from here.
>> It's the bad piece of bread.
>> Not the good piece.
>> We don't really care about them then.
>> No. See if we can toast bread.
>> See, it's nice and crispy.
>> I want a big toasted spot right in the middle.
>> Like a really burned like Yeah, just like that.
>> Why are you sending it to me?
>> I'm inhaling bread smoke.
your yummy toast.
>> It toasted it.
Did it go? It didn't go through. So, we don't have sand, unfortunately. But, we got a lot of dirt. Is it doing anything?
>> Should I take it off?
>> Take it off.
>> Definitely burnt it.
>> Wow. It did burn it.
Ow. It's like burning the dirt.
I think it's little pieces of glass for what? Like, there is pieces of sand in the dirt. So, what's the conclusion of the solar death ray? Is it an awesome scientist?
>> The pope, >> dude. I mean, like, it's awesome, but it'd be pretty scary like you put your hand right there.
>> Well, yeah. Don't put your hand in front of the solar funray.
>> That would not be fun.
>> The solar pane ray at that point.
>> No, don't cut it off. I just want a hole right in the middle of these holes.
>> All three of them.
>> Yep.
>> N blaster fixture of all time. Did you know that, sir?
Obviously, >> dude. Sir, I don't think it's going to work, sir. Ah, >> sir, it blew up, sir.
>> Now it looks like battle damage.
