Fullbladder Alchemist.
Lmao this deserves way more likes
God damnit 🤣
Simon has a work ethic we should all strive for. Well played, Sir.
@slam zamillion I can say, he is also not big headed. I reached out to him years ago to work together and he accepted. This man goes above and beyond.I had maybe 30k subs at the time and I was sooo hyped he said yes! Dude is a real YT legend.

Don't do it like Karl Marx, disappoint the in laws after you revived the dauery.
Jenny of Westphalia was worth more alive tho, she was very productive in writing.
does this still works in the modern world? lmao
Masterofplay7 only one way to find out lol
@@dlarson7977 the sad part is there're sugar daddies but no sugar mommies xD
@MasterofPlay7 hahaha, too true. But I’m still not sure I’d want one. Maybe I need to be more shallow. They’d find out I’m in it for the cash when I don’t wanna talk and can’t perform lol.
They used to make gunpowder from guano in a cave? That is bat shit crazy!
Also from old barnyard manure piles.
yeah and if they mixed it with soap, they cound get tnt... Learned that from a manga where the fight over one of these caves....
please stop this crap
Fun fact, the material components for a fireball spell are a pinch of sulfur and some bat guano.
@@lordjaraxxus5418 soap... lol You mean Glycerin. Which is a main component is soap. IF you mixed soap directly... you will end up with a nasty mess.
Brand was a wee bit obsessed.
underrated
Bunker Sieben And he was always looking out for number one.
Quite the Whiz Kid actually.
If you like alchemy, urine luck!
Ha
Now I'm not saying that this gentleman was a gold digger, but he was not messing with no broke lady.
Yeah --- > She give me money / When I'm in need. // Ain't messin' with no broke, broke.
I think it's by Mr Ye. Kan Ye.
Harry Potter and the Kidney's Stone
Cat's Meow You “passed” a good pun there.
Slow clap 👏
"Kidney's stone" 😂
@Bunker Sieben lol
Bunker Sieben chamber pot of urine lol
"Its linked to below" Simons famous last words.
"Urine trouble now."
So underrated
R Kelly has entered the chat...
Now that shit is funny
I wouldn’t call business blaze actually about business, I would call it “what is up with Danny’s life? How has he done so much?”
He was right in that It is generally entertaining. I don't see how its good for Simon's brand though, he generally comes off like an idiot on that channel.
Plus it’s structured more like fact fiend. Ya we get facts after a langthy possibly incoherent conversation on something that popped into their mind when doing the video
Will Stikken I love the channel. I don’t think he comes off an idiot in the slightest. It is like Saturday Night Live, it’s fun to watch the guest do silly sketches, and it’s fun to watch the cast go off script. I throughly enjoy the unstuffy side of Simon, lots of coffee and a little personal asides. It’s a nice light hearted change of pace and the whole world needs a laugh right now.
Love your show guys. Excellent job as always.
Simon provides info for all our poop, pee, and farts education...
I call it my favorite interesting sh!t channel. I actually recommended this channel to someone to settle an f-bomb debate. This channel is good for that.
Is it legal to say im a doctor as long as I start it with “self proclaimed”
Self proclaimed lawyer here, absolutely.
@@roguepiranha Self proclaimed regulator here. Not against the law.
You can say, but it doesn't mean anyone will "play doctor" with you.
Self proclaimed presidents are just dictators
Dr Phil been doing it forever
Too bad the Mythbusters quit. I'd love to see them test this!
Awesome detail as always! Thanks for sharing
I have a suggestion for a video: Did cowboys really shoot at the ground to make people "dance" or is it just a movie thing if so how did it start.
That’s actually a good question, hope they make a video on it before too long (if they don’t already have one)
Marko Blažević Yes, the story was told of a cowboy named Curly who did drink too much and was shot by Wyatt Earp. Curly did not dance. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Brocius
@slam zamillion Would bullets of that age really ricochet off packed sand and dirt though? Or non hardwood floors? And wouldn't it be a very costly intiative? Surely munitions were relatively expensive back then.
@slam zamillion Some interesting and enticing viewpoints. I do concur about the round bulleta and muskets. They would be very unlikely to be fit for this purpose, as AFAIK they were single shot muzzle loaders. So even if you had 5-6 of them preloaded and by your side, it would be such a slow dance that even I could keep up 😅 I am curious as to whether or not the relatively soft and/or loose nature of just-by-foot-traffic packed dirt/sand, soil or even basic soft wood flooring, would not cause most projectiles to penetrate the surface, and absorb most if not all their kinetic energy by dispersion and some deformation (at least as far as "ground" goes, with wood it might continue on beyond penetration).
With modern high powered / high velocity rifles and ammunition, might not possibly the projectile disintegrate on impact (if hitting ground, not wooden flooring)? Or, given typical projectile penetrative properties for such munitions, might it penetrate too far into the medium to realistically make it back out again by ricochet? - I guess my (loosely) speculations center around whether the relatively soft nature of typical indoor and outdoor surfaces would actually be conducive to ricochet at all 🤔
pr0xZen A test run on the “Mythbusters” show demonstrated that modern high velocity sniper rounds disintegrate with a few feet after entering WATER at a low angle. Civil War Minie balls went much farther.
Simon, I love all your channels and I really enjoy Business Blaze since you let it all hang out on that channel. Keep up the good work.
Listen people, it's time to get real here.
The fact that this generous and knowledgeable man has to sell a channel as good as BUSINESS BLAZE is a travesty ! Get your arses over and watch Simon's most entertaining and still informative productions yet 👍
It’s my favorite! I think he was building up a health backlist, and making sure it was popular enough to brag about.
Imagine how that conversation went with his wife and her friends!
"I need your urine!"
"Whatever for?"
"... Science...?"
Although I have already heard the story, I like your delivery better than the one of the others.
Hey I learned about this guy years ago. It's a pretty cool story.
Business blaze is awesome content. Simon swears like a sailor and I love it .
Trivia bit: Dalmation dogs have an unfortunate gene that makes them pass high levels of uric acid in their pee, and have a high likelihood of bladder stones as a result, requiring surgical removal.
Wait, I thought I read that dalmatians are unique for having urea in their urine (like humans) _instead_ of the uric acid that other dogs have. Was that a lie?
When you want to make the philosopher's stone out of pee, urine for disappointment.
I know what I'm doing during quarantine
Hahaha, well ill send u my piss for ur supply lol
Yes
DrMossydog u have no idea
Ah yes the liquid gold - phosphorus man
Edit: I learned about this 10yrs ago
*You’re watching a mini documentary about piss*
Let that sink in
Now the pee is sinking
baerleon lol
Now this is really taking the p!ss 🤣
Having been someone who watches a lot of anime, my first thought of the obtaining saltpeter (potassium nitrate) for gunpowder section of the video was, ooo, perhaps these are ways Senku from Dr. Stone could make more saltpeter for gunpowder now that he’s lost his access to the nitric acid in the bat cave. I’ve never been big into chemistry but that anime certainly has made me think about it a lot.
Playing with pee has its own section of certain sites...
I was gonna ask you if the link was a Rick Roll but of course our BB legend didn’t put the link there. Love your hard work Simon and I have been catching up on the new podcast. Happy that you and much of your staff works remotely!💜🎙🔥
Hahah, I love this story. I remember reading about it about 18 years ago in Mendeleyev's Dream. Imagine being one of his suffering neighbours putting up with that insanity!
'Potassium manufactured in the French method' sounds like the original description of French Fries.
That's "Potatium"
I need to see people try that experiment in youtube
This makes me feel both smart and like I need a break from the internet.
You found out my secret. Guess I should be smarter about my secret past lives.
No one is thinking you don't make enough videos each week, surely? You've gotta be one of the most prolific UA-camrs!
Me: *reads title
my brain: "Phosphorus"
That was a wee bit fascinating.
“Business blaze...it’s about business” 😂
Ah yes, hennig brand: the golden shower alchemist.
"Sir, you know you are useless when dehydrated."
(一_一)
There's a joke to be made here about golden showers... 😏
When half of the comments are just pee puns 😂😂
As soon as you said "he was convinced that this liquid held the key to a very different scientific breakthrough" I said "ohhhh Lord no, he thought it was going to make gold didn't he?"
Loving that Business Blaze seems to be encouraging Simon to bring out more personality in all the other channels. Next step for sure is to mention his frustration about Samsung users attitudes towards iPhones.
Never would've thought that the shiny stuff on my watch dial started with a guy messing around with huge amounts of pee for finding the Philosopher's Stone... really cool story! :)
His first wife died so "coincidently." I believe there more to the story than meet the eyes.
Lmao no that's bullshit
That was an incredibly long process to find an accidental benefit. How bizarre.
4:16 how did he know that the lower layer is salty? 🤨🤔
Andrei
🤢 😷
*Business Blaze* sounds like some *fire* 🔥 ass *marijuana* 🍃
baerleon nigga that’s the slogan 😭
Please do a video on the Great Emu War in Australia from 1932
Uuhhmmm YEAH!!!
... "How one man playing with urine"... Simon ... you have my attention 😀 ...
😏🤣
I guess someone was taking the piss with this one... :P
You're the first comment that actually made me laugh. Good job.
@@angelheart5584 You're welcome... :D
That's really does sound like a golden opportunity we should shower this man with praise
Well played, sir.
"but it's about business" HAHAHAHA that didn't age well
I've always thought it was cool that the concept of alchemy (being able to change one element into another) was valid, it's just that it's not via "magic", it's just science that they couldn't comprehend yet.
Am I the only one that just puts on Simon and falls asleep? Like not because it's boring, I just hate trying to sleep in silence.
Super interesting. I enjoyed it although I did have to put down my soup for awhile. 💯 True! I have a wonderful picture of archaic alchemists in my study. The irony of my very scientific, pragmatic, logical mind. (Just love the art of the time period)
I haven't found your vids is awhile although I wonder why they haven't been popping up. Good to be back.
Simon: I hope you don't mind me saying, I liked your beard before when I think it was less hirsute, more manicured or tended to. (I can't think of the word I mean. Sorry brain fog from disabilities.) Although you are still quite the looker! 🐺😙 (Wolf whistles)
How did he know the salty part was salty....hmmm smh
Oh ok, I’m not a chemist and was hoping there was a simple answer other than tasting rancid urine. Thank u for clearing that up. Sincerely
This video held the interest of every student in my class.
Simon, How many channels do you have? Can't seem to find a direct answer lol gotta be round 10 right? I gotta know lol
Who would ever have thought that the subject of pee could be so interesting!! Great to learn new things no matter how wee they are 😉
Very cool topic and to answer your question on how they got the pee.
In his time, urine was collected for the leather industry and washing clothes. Urine has a lot of tannin in it and the fullers would stomp around in vats of it, to soften leather and linen cloth. Getting tonnes of Urine can't have been that difficult, but probably quite expensive as it takes quite a wee to fill a ton (type of wooden vat). Medical doctors would look at patients piss to discern illness that had no visible cause. It still is being used today for that very reason, though we process it with spectroscopy. Just looking at the colour will tell a lot though.
I hear Chop Suey in all of these vids. I love it!
Where is link for new channel?
Haha this whole thing must've smelled HORRIBLE! Edit: Why would you leave it out for weeks if you're just gonna boil it down anyways haha!? Unless you want it to be all funky.
The master of the golden shower.
This is HUGE ! Very big stuff. Very scientific stuff. Alot of great people were involved in this. This story makes me want to put up a building with big golden letters on it.
Dang seriously this must have been a magical moment back then
Simon you may very well be hardest working man on UA-cam
I looked up the channel called “relatively new channel called business blaze” but couldn’t find it.
First his colleagues said " Urine Luck", soon afterwards they would say "Urine Control" . Ultimately they stated " Urine the Poor House!"
What is the music in the background of this video
Where's the blaze link?
seriously how many videos do you do a week it has to be well over 20 at this point
There have been a few others that made gold one was high electricity for months and the other a nuclear reactor for a 24 hour period. Both small amounts of gold and one had radioactivity. I think they did it with a special isotope of Mercury.
Hm, so you’re saying somehow I will find a way to make a scientific outbreak if I just play with massive amounts of poopoo.
What, no "Don't try this at home," warning? ...wait a minute...
I'm guessing gunpowder?
Years ago, there was a scientist who actually made a silk purse from a sow’s ear. You should do a bit on that in some future segment.
Ok, now the algorithm is just scary....
After watching the previous video, I scroll down the videofeed for the newly loaded feed and while scrolling down I feel the need to pee. While it's loading, it takes a bit longer than usual, the urge intensifies... the video's finally pop up and this is the first one that shows up .....
They know my bladder routine o_o;
Climax or urine jokes 3:50 😂
Do poop next.
"No, pointed sticks!!"
Poop.
This guy got married... twice... 🤨🤨
Women were more desperate back then, since their toys had splinters
The mystical substance that could turn based metal into "gold" may have been referring to tin or zinc. Adding either metal to copper will result in bronze or brass respectively. Being gold colored would have been considered enough for early civilizations, especially since copper, tin, and zinc weren't typically found near each other during antiquity; getting both of the necessary components of either meant trading with a far-off kingdom. The Bronze Age was a period of unprecedented exploration and trade, and it's around this time that the idea of turning common metals into gold first came about.
Business Blaze is 🔥!
watching serious Simon after watching Business Blaze Simon will never be the same :D
Kinda pissed it all away!
I clicked on this just to watch Simon crack up talking about Pee.
Dr. Brand wanted to find the ultimate golden shower....
6:46 I actually heard him say "...had not created the phosphorus stone..."
You should do the one about the crazy scientist, the dog urine, the camera and the sunglasses!! Great story.
...'but Percy! It's green!'
Please oh please cover jenkem.
Don't know what made me watch this but I guess I'm glad I did XD
I'd be quite pissed off.
So I guess this is the origin of putting ‘salt’ on your margarita.
I liked, because Simon you don't make enough videos every week.
swat1229 He has several different channels.
Thank god..whew. My email notification for this video cut the name off...to me it said "How One Man Playing with Human Urine .... Led to a Hug" I was pretty worried what the story was gonna be, not gonna lie. lmao
