Dont put gallium on pressurized stuff it could explode. Also, water is wet.
Be careful out there man. Anything pressurized could possibly kill you. Stay safe
I beg to differ. (About the water part duh) water is NOT wet. A single molecule of water has the properties to MAKE things wet. 2 molecules of water are wet, beacuse they make each other wet. Does that make sesne?
Bro I love your videos, but the one thing is you gotta be careful with yourself. YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL!!!
Exploding a full bottle of cO2=not a good idea!! (Unless you wanna get hurt)
get some cheap engine with an aluminum block and melt it with gallium while its running :)
I can imagine gallium bullets being used in the future against robots when they take over
TheBigSpicy Great idea xD
that might be good to shoot at enemy submarines or planes. Obviously I'd rather not have war, people causing each others deaths is SO sad!
War machines are made of steel, not aluminum
As soon as you shot it it would melt, ultimate shotgun rounds vs a somehow uncoated aluminium robot
Been attempted already. Didn't work

Sir, are you aware that you are leaking coolant at an alarming rate?

That’s actually insane. I expected the place where the gallium soaked in to be weak but not the WHOLE THING
thats because it actually infiltrates the aluminum structure and weakens the entire object, obviously bigger objects will need more gallium but still its pretty cool
Evil gallium😈
His scooter just couldent handle the neutron style/
@@nitroxylictv bigger objects will just need more time.
This is why I like UA-cam. I knew what gallium could do to aluminum but never even considered this as an option for content
Picking up a compressed gas cylinder that's being slowly eroded by gallium...... Is this a new form of Russian Roulette?
definetly
I agree, this guy doesnt know what he is doing!
Probably the only reason it didn't explode is because the cold of the gas escaping likely stiffened the weak metal. But brittle metal is worse because that makes dangerous shrapnel.
Folks DON'T do what this knuclehead did with the CO2 canister! The bottom of that tank could have unzipped and removed his head from his body at 800 psig. I speak from experience as I had to drive a friend to hospital after a mere garden sprayer unzipped at the bottom at 60 psig and the canister jetted into his face. He was lucky to survive as the metal handle took out his teeth, his nose and missed his eye by millimeters.
This is extreme hot potato.
That razor scooter deserved what it got for all of our ankles.

NO
I broke my leg from one once
Not even my ankle
This is so cool! I work with a focused ion beam that uses a Gallium source to produce ions, and I must say: between that and this video, Ga is my new fav element
My fav elememt is also gallium . I got a 100g sample ( 2 50g bottles )when i was 8 and i can say a few things : it is a strange feeling to have it in your hand , it will oxidize if near water , if u have aluminum - you wont anymore if you get this near , and you can melt if in your hand but not as easealy as you think
Deliberately weakening a 900 PSI pressure tank in shorts and a short-sleeved shirt: "Safety goggles on..." God I laughed.

This is actually amazing. Even the places that don't come in contact with gallium become brittle and weak.
Basically the gallium is creeping through the aluminium creating an alloy, as far as I understand it the aluminium then can be oxidized and since the gallium can not form an alloy with aluminium oxide it is pushed further into the unoxidized aluminium, repeating the process.
@@HiltownJoe yup
6:55 you can watch it spread through the aluminum plates here, I wasn't expecting it to behave almost like a catalyst.
@VFT - WHAT?? It only effects aluminum if I remember correctly, like he said it's none toxic to humans.
@VFT - WHAT?? because he isn't made of aluminum. Gallium atoms penetrate the crystal lattice, introducing imperfections and mechanical stress
For once a liquid that understandably is BANNED on planes...
Ha, right on! 😅
This would make a great addition to anti aircraft rounds
You get a few of these to hit an airframe, sometime later in it's flight it will crack or break apart at least permanently grounding the aircraft if not causing it to crash
“This is a new scooter we’re going to test it every hour”

This would actually be cool at like a kids birthday party like imagine destroying a bike with your bare hands all the kids would be amazed
Everybody’s favorite science teacher, that’s for sure!
Meanwhile the birthday boy looking at his brand new bike melting away and crying.
Oh, and they like hire you to destroy the old bike when the kid gets a new one. You wear like a muscle suit to make you seem like a macho man.
I bet every time he watches this video, he regrets that. There was still a load of pressure in that tank that was getting more and more brittle as he was holding it. Wow!
I'm fairly certain that clip at the end was with a different CO2 container or if it was the same one it was recorded before because when he drops it on the ground there is no output at the base which there would be if it was the same canister at a later point in time compared to the first clip when he put gallium on it. So no I don't think he does regret it because honestly I don't see anything that dangerous in this video apart from that clip at the very end where the CO2 caster starts spinning around but that's probably all it's going to do is just spin until it has no more pressure in it to drive the spinning. Does pressurized canisters are designed to take some amount of abuse before they fail completely because you don't want what would otherwise be a relatively minor accident having several fatalities because you were shipping pressurized canisters that failed in a situation where our otherwise there wouldn't have been any harmed humans.
@@the_undead edit: I just rewatched at .25x speed at full resolution for a frame or 2 at 12:05 you can see the frost line where the crack is. Also the tank, it's noticably scratched and dented and the tank he is holding after had the same dents and scratches.
CO2 is liquid in the container and flashes over to gas as it comes out, when this happens it also makes frost or really dry ice. It's possible the ice clogged the crack. You may be right and it's a different tank but I don't think lack of gas coming out the bottom is proof.
Also CO2 expands around 500 to 1 so I think that tank should have sprayed for a lot longer if it was a new one. But we don't know how much it started with or what was edited out.
@@libtrs838 dry ice is not strong enough to hold back the pressure of a pressurized CO2 canister. At least not If it's out of pressure where it can spin the canister or send it flying or similar. Maybe if it's a mostly depleted and at two atmospheres of pressure but definitely not at 500 plus PSI, You need steel, titanium or carbon composites to reliably hold back such pressures in an affordable and man portable container
@@the_undead dry ice and/or ice absolutely are strong enough to plug a crack in a high pressure container. The majority of strain on a pressure vessel is tensile force. Imagine any given cross section of the tank as a rubber band, and the gas inside trying to stretch it out in every direction. In the case of filling a crack, all you need is enough compressive strength to hold against the pressure. Dry ice has a compressive strength of ~30Mpa (4351 psi). The ice is more than capable of stopping flow from the crack, but does little to nothing for the overall structural integrity of the pressure vessel. This was quite possibly the most dangerous thing I've witnessed on this channel... but I'm gonna keep watching to see if he takes things even farther!
On a sidenote, Florida has a sizable cave diving community and scuba shops catering to those individuals are more than happy to do "cave fills" on scuba tanks. Should be able to find a shop pretty easily that'll pump a 3000psi rated aluminum tank up to 3600psi. Should make for a much more interesting video than CO2. Bonus points for pure oxygen and throwing the tank in a pool while there's ignition source(s) nearby. Oxygen from the tank plus hydrogen from the al/h2o reaction... should be interesting.
7:45 you’re telling me he made hydrogen gas and DIDNT SET IT ON FIRE?🤣
Uhhh yeah it is combustible and if he did he would probably be seriously injured
@@dilonatron1164uhm... no, he wont get injured and the hydrogen gas isnt confined

@@dilonatron1164 he usually would
I was thinking the same thing... this makes me doubt the hydrogen claims... Sometimes I think this dude loves fire more than his own life. Except I must confess, of all gasses I loathe hydrogen and propane. well at least for fun . those are not exactly fun . nor funny . =more like peeing your pants. not even enough time to poo ur pants.
I almost saw the headline: “Florida Man blows arm off”
Found the arm, no man. Just a strange pink mist.

Is it possible to stay sane in Florida?
I used to think this guy was sane but this video convinced me otherwise.
@@ddegn Pressurized containers are not to be messed with. They can be lethal if they are tampered with. Whatever is in the container is highly compressed. That is what can cause an explosion. It says on certain labels of products that are pressurized. Contents under pressure. Do not puncture or incinerate the container.
@@dwaynewladyka577 "Pressurized containers are not to be messed with."
I completely agree.That's why I implied this guy was insane in my earlier comment.
What was most amazing to me was the way it spread (diffused?) to “rot” parts of the bike and scooter so far away from where it initially came in contact :-0
I spilt gallium on my school bleachers without knowing it did this to aluminum, good thing they had a plastic covering
Add gallium to aluminum engine while it is running.
had that Q floating in my head for some time too 😁
Oh Jesus that be fun to watch
mechanic here.....
YOU MONSTER!!!!!!
Even better buy an aluminum usps car with aluminum body and aluminum motor put galinstan alloy everywhere and later go through a car wash.
@@GD15555 This actually amazing! If you manage to get a spark in there - the entire car wash would be gone xD
I could imagine the nerdy kid in school getting ahold of this and just destroying all of the bullies bikes.
But with the galinstan! Nothing happens until it starts raining XDDD
Good idea
Samuel Schurman that would be me putting gallium on the bikes
we have discovered a secret
If you tell your bike will be dust
I know this is three years old, but you are lucky to still be making videos and not having a time out in the forever box, for picking up that C02 tank. An efficient way of turning a UA-cam video into a LiveLeak video.
Imagine putting this on the head of someone engine that's pissed you off.
"We're gonna be testing it every hour"
"Okay so it's been 2, maybe 2 and a half hours later..."
lol
this is the same guy who said it had only felt like 2 hours playing video games when it had really been 5 haha I'm guessing they were having fun on an Xbox
_Shane_Anigans_ your profile picture is... something.
well he _did_ already say he was playing video games with his brother
I'm sure they checked it after an hour, noticed it wasn't brittle enough yet, and then waited another hour or so.
12:04 : if that cylinder still has that much pressure inside, you should definitely NOT hold it against your body after you compromised its structural integrity with gallium. Or stand anywhere near it...
Metal shrapnel is no fun.
All the more fun!
12:10 - I'm really kind of surprised you would handle the tank in your hands, knowing that it's compromised and could explode at any moment. Yikes!
Worse, his *bare* hands.
That was either a different tank or the same tank before he exposed it to gallium. I'm really surprised by the amount of people who aren't giving any thought to the fact that a lot of the safety procedures would be going on behind the scenes. When you see a rated PSI on a canister that is the manufacturer of that canister saying you can go up to this pressure and the container can still withstand some amount of force being applied to it without any explosions happening, and dropping a canister like that on dirt wouldn't be that much energy being exerted on the walls so the chances of it breaking would be practically nil especially because it definitely was not at full pressure by that point
I literally just bought 15 grams of gallium because of this video. Thanks for letting me know about a shiny new and reasonably safe toy to play with!
If you keep this up you'll be Florida Man rather than TheBackyardScientist
Florida man explodes himself with pressurized cannister while doing a UA-cam "science experiment". I can already see the news channels blaming the internet
The backward man!
and the media is going to put the blame on video games because he mentioned it once
Trump.
man's created a contamination nightmare
Gallium all over his property that's going to react with aluminum objects put there
“That’s as tall as it goes, Sandra. These aren’t made for big kids!” Lol
Watching you hit a pressure vessel with a hammer that was structurally compromised is perhaps the stupidest thing I've ever seen a smart person do
Don't worry he's a pro he knows what he is doing
Also getting up close and handling/tossing around a high pressure CO2 canister that has been compromised as well.
Florida man dont care!
It really was something a "pro" would not have done.. Pros also don't throw venting canisters that can potentially spin up and break an ankle or something. Also: no.
He hit the fire extinguisher after the pressure had been released. Hence the hissing noise you heard.
"Gallium isn't toxic or poisonous"
Me: so drink it
ok
Not a good idea. If you have ulcers, gallium could get in the bloodstream, which would cause kidney failure.

I hope I don't "accidentally" drop some in my buddy's aluminum boat before he leaves the dock to go fishing...
if he's a real fisherman that bad boy will have a protective layer of blood, scales, salt, and fish goo that should insulate it from the gallium and it's harmful science

When the kid with the horrible mic joins the discord chat
Gallium looks like a great thing to play practical jokes on someone with.
i know this video is old but, if you could do a close up on how gallium reacts with aluminum under a midroscope and see how it "infiltrates" into the aluminum

@@blargh6143 ...and a charcoaled one at that.
Pure liquid mercury is not so bad, its only once its bonded with certain organic compounds that it becomes super toxic.
Unfortunately, your stomach acids form an environment where such bonding can happen.
And you only need minute traces of those mercury compounds to get very sick.
Mercury mouthwash is a *baaaaaad* idea.
Ok so the way the galinstan contaminated aluminum reacted to water was awesome!
the ungodly desire to take a bite of a piece of metal post gallium
Playing with a pressurized tank which has had its structural integrity reduced to almost nothing is a great way to get a Darwin award.
Except that the pressure was already let out. What are you on about?
@Robert Nelson LMAO, you're clueless if you think a crack lets out SOME pressure and stops.
@Robert Nelson LMAO! Did you watch the video? He clearly did exactly that.
@@Nevir202 bro you brain dead?? He opened the valve and the tank flew around, how could you possibly believe that there was no pressure in the tank??
Doesn’t he already have a kid though? I think that precludes a Darwin Award?
12:03 who knows how much CO2 is left in this mechanically weakened high pressure vessel. Let's play with it and drop it on the floor.

@@satan1189 *Safety*
Don't worry, the self-healing property of CO2 gas leaks will hide the danger until the very last second when *complete* structural integrity is lost and the tank explodes.
and he "chained" it down with what looks like paracord and stakes! backyard greatly underestimates how much damage that cylinder can cause
Jeroen Feher that’s what pressure gauges are for
wow! its crazy that it soaked up the whole thing. i was expecting it to crumble in a small area around the gallium
The bit about (galinstan+aluminum)×h20=aluminum oxide+hydrogen is the best part in my opinion. Would love to see a separate video on this reaction!

I didn't think that he'd do it with a pressurised vessel, but he's showing us just how complacent he's become.
That was wildly dangerous!
Yeah. The CO2 freezes as it starts leaking, plugging the hole. There was a lot of pressure still in that (rapidly weakening) tank when he was holding it. He's lucky he didn't get injured.

This. 100% this. My cousin's friend had a hole punched through his hand in a workshop because of this.
I was also concerned about the fact that he picked up the tank while there was STILL LIQUID inside it. He should have waited until it was fully depressurized before even going near it.

I rapidly respect them from about 100 yards away with 556
Why would it explode? It was losing pressure. They explode if they pressurize beyond their capacity
@@bobbyrayofthefamilysmith24 They explode when the cylinder structure is compromised past the point of being able to hold back the pressure differential between what is inside and ambient atmosphere. For it to leak, it has to be still pressurised.
@@electricsnut it had a small hole in it caused by the gallium the rest of the structure wasn't compromised not to mention the pressure started dropping once the hole appeared. The stored energy began to drop off at that point meaning that strain on the tank was only decreasing.

I went looking for more galinstan, aluminium and water reactions, and... I can't find any of note, I'd love to see more... Are things structurally OK more or less until they get wet? Eg: if it was on a scooter, and you then rode it in the rain would it instantly turn into aluminium oxide like that?
