If this is the "Apex Fart" then thioacetone is the "God fart". Thioacetone is absolutely nasty shit. Here's and excerpt on it's odor. "Thioacetone has an intensely foul odor. Like many low molecular weight organosulfur compounds, the smell is potent and can be detected even when highly diluted.[8] In 1889, an attempt to distill the chemical in the German city of Freiburg was followed by cases of vomiting, nausea and unconsciousness in an area with a radius of 0.75 kilometres (0.47 mi) around the laboratory due to the smell.[9] British chemists at the Whitehall Soap Works in Leeds noted in an 1890 report that dilution seemed to make the smell worse and described the smell as "fearful".[10] Thioacetone is considered a dangerous chemical due to its extremely foul odor and ability to render people unconscious, induce vomiting, and be detected over long distances.

They reported their experience as follows: Recently we found ourselves with an odour problem beyond our worst expectations. During early experiments, a stopper jumped from a bottle of residues, and, although replaced at once, resulted in an immediate complaint of nausea and sickness from colleagues working in a building two hundred yards [180 m] away. Two of our chemists who had done no more than investigate the cracking of minute amounts of trithioacetone found themselves the object of hostile stares in a restaurant and suffered the humiliation of having a waitress spray the area around them with a deodorant. The odours defied the expected effects of dilution since workers in the laboratory did not find the odours intolerable ... and genuinely denied responsibility since they were working in closed systems. To convince them otherwise, they were dispersed with other observers around the laboratory, at distances up to a quarter of a mile [0.40 km], and one drop of either acetone gem-dithiol or the mother liquors from crude trithioacetone crystallisations were placed on a watch glass in a fume cupboard. The odour was detected downwind in seconds.
@@richardcutler6254 This is what I immediately thought about. It's supposed to be so terrible it's even not reliable as a weapon, or for research purposes.
I think it's a matter of being around sulphuric smells. Chemists and stuff don't find the smell to be the same as actual poop smells. I think it's because artificial attempts at making biological waste matter will always smell different to us simply because they're chemical smells that we're used to identifying. I mean those old fart bombs don't even remotely smell like a fart to me, They smell like rotten eggs, So basically just sulphur.
You probably had a hard time smelling it due to nasal fatigue. Even though you were working with a fumehood it was clear that based on the reactions of your coworkers that you had been exposed too long to fully smell it. The fact alone that you and your cameraman could stick your noses into the jar and the others could hardly even open it illustrates this clearly. You should try revisiting it in a few days and see what it smells like to get the full experience.
The dipropylene glycol makes it very clear that this is intended to be vaporized. Put some in a fog machine or vape dispenser and try a whiff of that. I bet it will take your rating up to 46/10.
yeah, that was my immediate take away from this; it needed to be vapourized. That said, Nigel really does seem to have a deadened sense of smell when it comes to stinky things.
Depends on the chemical. I actually got really good at smelling impurities that our analytics (NMR, HPLC) couldn't detect. But the smells definitely stop bothering you so much. Worked a lot with Thioglycolic acid, it's really not that bad when the novelty has worn off.
There's a chemical my friends and I were laughing about called thioacetone because the wikipedia states "In 1889, an attempt to distill the chemical in the German city of Freiburg was followed by cases of vomiting, nausea and unconsciousness in an area with a radius of 0.75 kilometres (0.47 mi) around the laboratory due to the smell" which seems insane. The rest of the page is filled with more things like this. I'm not saying you SHOULD make this, but, yknow, it would be cool to see if wikipedia's right ;)
Manufacture of certain chemicals within the mercaptan family is fairly hard to do without specialty equipment and atmosphere handlers specifically modified for the laboratory environment in which mercaptans like thioacetone are handled. In the case of thioacetone (or actually trithioacetone due to spontaneous self-polymerization) you will require the glove box/hood to have alkaline permanganate seals and you need to provide some way, even with the seals, to neutralize the mercaptans (such as free copper ions in a sufficient high solution of nitric acid being used as a filter). Finally, even with the Copper and Nitric Acid acting on contained release of thioacetone, to prevent releasing the stink through the building ventilation you need to run all exhaust through a pyrolitic decomposition before venting to any location outside of the sealed atmosphere.
@@Cutest-Bunny998 and I assume that's the only way to legally make the stuff, I'm no law expert but I imagine you could get in pretty big trouble releasing a biohazard into the environment that is capable of rendering everyone within a half mile radius unconscious or at the very least wishing they were unconscious
Hamilton Morris talked about Thioacetate in one of his podcasts. He made it because of that wikipedia article & said it wasn't that bad. But he was not sure whether it worked or not.
The worst malodor I experienced was in my youth. Fifty years ago, the vast majority of radios were using vacuum tubes. In that particular period, manufacturers were trying to save on costs, so they replaced the rectifier valve 6V4 with a single selenium rectifier. That rectifier, unlike the 6V4, didn't like any current above 50 mA; so they were failing regularly during lightings strikes. When they failed they overheated badly. Now selenium is in the same group of sulphur, but it was 100 times more stinky. Some radio owners replaced the carpets and repainted the walls and, after awhile, throw away the repaired radio. Selenium - when overheated - produce an odor that stick into the nose for days if not weeks. It has an unnatural stinkiness, which cannot be hold for long. People cannot sleep in a room where selenium compounds are in the air, nor they can stand for very long. I have experienced it first hand all its unpleasantness. Selenium rectifiers were also used in battery chargers in the '50s and the '60s, charging car batteries and forklifts. It was easy to tell if a mechanic shop or a warehouse had had a charger malfunction, as the smell was left lingering inside for months after the event. Selenium compounds must be the stinkiest thing after your military grade malodor formula. Thanks for the video...
I've only uncontrollably gagged/vomited from an odor once in my lifetime. My mom kept a 32 gal trash bin in her backyard to "collect" her dogs poop. Normally it wasn't very smelly since we lived in the desert. The poop would dry out and as long as the lid was on you couldn't smell anything. One weekend in August my mom called me up and asked me to come empty the bin for her. My cousin and I pull up to her house and go to grab the bin. She then tells us to be careful because it was filled with water. I asked her why it was filled with water and she told me that during the last rain storm, about three weeks prior, the lid had blown off and the bin filled with rain water. The same bin that was half full of dog poop. The same bin that had been sitting outside in direct sunlight, in August, in the desert. Reluctantly, my cousin and I went to lift the bin. The second we got it off the ground the lid popped off and we were immediately overtaken by the raw, boiling, stench of the poop soup. Both my cousin and I set the bin down and fell to our knees wrenching. I never experienced an uncontrollable reaction like that. I honestly thought I was going to vomit my organs up. The smell was absolutely volatile.
Honestly, psychopaths have a reduced reaction to bad smells. Not because they can't smell it, but because their mind doesn't register them as "bad". I honestly can't help but suspect that's what's going on here, lol.

My favorite part of all this is that Nile, himself, said he enjoys making stinky things. It's in one of the perfume-based videos he made years ago, he said he prefers making stuff that smells rather than the nicer smelling things. He has like, three separate videos of different horrible smells he's made, LMAO
I’ve heard of this chemical, which was dubbed, “The worst smell in the world” It’s called Thioacetone. I think you should make some of that too and see which one smells worse. Edit: Who else first heard of this from the second episode of Distractable?
I mean, the government said it smells so bad it couldn't even be used as a weapon, so... Maybe just look it up? Joe Scott did a really great video on the topic.
I like how when Nile opens the stinky chemicals the cameraman almost dies from a few feet away while Nile himself almost sticks the jars into his nostrils and says like "It is not that bad!!😁"
Everytime u see this man on nile red he is some what professional and here he is an absolute toddler but I like this side of him. Smashing stuff, destroying stuff and messing up is what we want to see
Yeah way back in Chemistry class we were taught not to directly stick the container to our noses but move our hands over the top to get a waft of the odor. I suspect what happened to this guy is the reason why. haha
as someone working in wastewater treatment, ive had people ask me how do you deal with this horrible smell whilst i was not smelling anything at all XD
Most entertaining part is seeing how Nile clearly has lost a lot of his sense of smell just like my chemistry professor. Badge of honor. Nile will repeatedly nose dive into something before sharing an opinion while his cameraman has much more to say immediately from several feet away. Good stuff. Thank you Nile!
He smelt all of the ingredients through their containers from a good foot or two away, I think he just has a super strong tolerance for everything for some reason.
Nile Red - “I am not obsessed with stinky things” Also Nile Red - “I am going to effortlessly and succinctly describe the complex nuances of stinky smells”
All those years as a chemist have honed not only Nile's spellcraft but also his smellcraft. We have unleashed a devastating power on the world by letting this man know that his sense of smell can find something worse than US standard bathroom malodor.
Also Also Nigel: "I don't think it's nearly as bad as they said it would be. I am disappoint." Everyone else: "Oh... Oh man... HUUUURGGEHH HLEEAAHHHurkurkBLLEAAHH!"
From all of the “stinky chemical” videos I’ve seen, it seems like Nile actually enjoys horrible smells. Most of the time he’s straight faced and smiling, and usually tries to convince us that it’s “not *that* bad”
As a longtime heavy equipment operator at a landfill in Southern Maryland, I can unequivocally attest to the worst smell in human history is...the day after the 4th of July, the first trash truck to the pile was a gentleman who would pickup from all the local crab houses, and it would sit and ferment for a couple of days, rendering the absolute worst smell imaginable. That load would slide out the back of the truck, hit the ground, and you could watch the steam rise from the odor. I say all this because the first year I was there, I rushed to disperse this pile and spread it out to be compacted. The other operators just sat and grinned at me, knowing the impending result. I then made the mistake of coming out of the cab only to inhale a direct whiff of the ghastly gas, and promptly barfed. Apparently the usual ritual was to wait for a few more loads and promptly bury this slimy load under a few tons of fresh smelling garbage. No one warned the new guy. Needless to say, this was literally THE worst smell I ever had the opportunity to smell in my life. The second worst was always the dumpster from the food court at the mall.
Being that he is a chemist, I can imagine that Nile has destroyed his ability to smell anything. He could barely pick up smells from literally putting his nose on something, and yet everybody else could smell the same stuff from several feet away.
I used to work in a chemistry lab. One time, I accidentally got a nose full of sulphuric acid fumes. I couldn’t smell or taste anything for a few days.
I used to smoke a lot and snort pulverized tabacc "snuff" that was awesome. But my nose got messed. Sense of smell is pretty minimal at this point lol.
As janky as it is, i love the production style in this one. Getting to see where everything is in the lab is so oddly pleasing. Also the little hiccups in the process are funny :D
Nile: "I'm not sure why people think my favorite past-time is making stinky things" also Nile: "I was so focused on the stinky things, I didn't order the *main* ingredient" 7:26
I'd honestly be as eager to make it as Nigel. I feel like once they start tasking you with the weird stuff, that's when you can say you've made it to the top.
..and you finally come up with the winning formula for fart juice, then some chemist guy on the interwebs reviews your lifes work and his reaction is 'meh'.
"During early experiments, a stopper jumped from a bottle of residues, and, although replaced at once, resulted in an immediate complaint of nausea and sickness from colleagues working in a building two hundred yards [180 m] away" Lol he'd still sniff it straight from a jar
It's also pretty unstable and readily polymerizes to trithioacetone in room conditions. Nevertheless, I assume It's not a great idea to synthesize semi-weapon-grade stinky chemical in general laboratories lol
I had a stint as a crime scene cleaner, which unfortunately wasn't just crime scenes, but just anywhere you can imagine malodors. And a couple of my co-workers had this as well, but whenever we'd deal with putrefaction, it would actually trigger anxiety and a fight or fight response. Goosebumps would go up my arms, my scalp would feel prickly, and I'd feel like I had to go to the bathroom. Have always wondered if there was something about that chemical composition that maybe not everyone can smell, like the infamous bitter almond scent.
apparently this “concoction” is a “standard malodor” because its the universally accepted smell of military bathrooms, and its meant to test different cleaning product’s effectiveness against the smell.
I think we can all conclude that NileRed needs to do a thioacetone synthesis...I've wanted to try it myself for a while now, but without a fumehood, it sounds like a deathwish...maybe it will be stinky enough for Nigel's 10/10 rating! Update: both me and NileRed made it a while ago and it was honestly no big deal, lol
With Thioacetone a fumehood would most likely not be sufficiant for protection. Given the (alleged) properties of that stuff, I guess a completely sealed safety cabinet is the least you need to handle it.
i love how nile has a slightly unhinged nature that slips through sometimes "Why are you breaking that table?" "Were on break!" "Lets see if this breaks when i drop it" *shatters* Then he gives off a super genuine happy smile hahaha
Nilered: I don't know why people think I like making stinky things Also Nilered: sniffs various stinky things multiple times after finding out first-hand that it smells bad, forgets to buy the solvent because he was too focused on the stinky things, dedicates a 22 minute video on making the stinkiest thing, and wants to make a stinkier thing
Everyone forgets about the worst parts of a truly bad smell. It's the feeling you get walking into an outdoor bathroom (no A/C) on a hot summers day being bombarded by the humid scent of drying piss, so thick it feels like it's condensating on your skin. Tasting the urine in the air as you hopelessly hold your breath, simply seeking relief. THAT, is what makes a horrid smell.
My wife used to work at a PhotoMat years ago. Her sense of smell has been warped by the exposure to chemicals. She can't smell mold or certain other things at all. I believe you have achieved such levels of olfactory glory. 😆
I quit developing film myself cause Black and white developer is brutally toxic, My go to has Metol which is fucking toxic. E6 is not that bad, only the bleach is bad.
Seeing the way he just shoves his nose into every chemical instead of wafting any of them, I mean... I'm not surprised he can barely smell it. He probably can't smell much of anything.
up, you can also infer how far from the chemicals each person is by how bad they find the smell to be, I'm pretty sure the cameraman's sense of smell is pretty shot too
You're not a true chemist if you waft the chemical. Sticking your nose into the bottle and having your head recoil reflexively from the smell is the true way to do it.
Science teachers are also more concerned about your safety from splash hazards or inhalation of actually toxic fumes and solvents. Nile has the experience to know which chemicals will melt his flesh.
I think in one the Episodes for the Safety Third, I do not remember with episode, but he mentioned that he might of damaged his sense of smell by smelling a chemical he was not suppose to, so the 4.6/10 makes sense for him
I'm just guessing that this was made as a standard for "smelly bathroom" for some project which needed consistently smelly bathrooms for testings. Maybe for testing vent/extraction systems and preventing bathroom odors from permeating unintended areas. Or might have been some CD stuff and seeing how much bucket-toilet odor could be tolerated in a fallout shelter.
Honestly that's the most military thing ever. Spend resources to perfectly simulate a WC odors to make the ventilation better. Then when it's actually time to put people on the field, you give them this cheap commercial porta potty and... burn the feces, yeah sure, just burn it. I'm not joking with the last part.
Rather unamusingly, the Standard Bathroom Malodor was created for cleaning agent testing. In other words, it's the Standard Smell for unclean bathroom.
Having made it yourself, you likely desensitized your smell receptors to each ingredient as you worked through the process. That would explain why everyone else reacted more negatively *and* why the people outside of the lab reacted the worst out of anyone. Prolonged exposure to smells causes our bodies to gradually turn down our reaction to them, and this can progress so far as to make us totally oblivious to a smell that someone else finds very distressing.
@@phantom_isle Yeah but he smelt each ingredient before he actually started mixing them together. I think that’s what the OG commenter was referring too. He desensitized himself to each individual ingredient so it didn’t smell as bad to him when it was mixed together
Background info for anyone interested, text is from an article I found: "In 1998, Pamela Dalton, a cognitive psychologist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, was tasked with developing a stink bomb for the Defense Department. Her experiments found that people from different backgrounds and different parts of the world, who grew up smelling and eating different things, often completely disagreed about which smells were good or bad. The best candidate she found for a universally distasteful smell was something called "U.S. Government Standard Bathroom Malodor," a substance that was designed to mimic the scent of military field latrines in order to test cleaning products. She chose the aromatic liquid as the base of her stink-bomb recipe. The resulting formula, which she called Stench Soup, may well be the worst smell ever created."
I'm with Nile on this one. On a scale of 0 to Thioacetone, if you're able to simply replace the lid and say it smells bad, then it's trash. For comparison, if that were Thioacetone, the moment you removed the lid everyone within a 1kM radius would be vomiting and evacuating. ...please make Thioacetone.

"Primal instinct" is probably right. The only reason we became the dominant species is our ability to share knowledge, so "bad stink is bad! Smell bad stink!" Is a beneficial instinct
In perfumery, the distance at which you can smell it, the strength of it, is called "scent throw" or "fragrance throw", often just "throw", and the trail left behind as you (or the thing you are smelling) move is called the "sillage". I kept thinking about these two facts with increasing dread throughout this video.
NileBlue: "I don't know why people think I like making stinky stuff" Also NileBlue: "Oh Hexanoic Acid. The stuff I made before that smells like stinky cheese vomit."

So yeah, this scent wasn’t developed as a weapon, but to simulate the smell of a military latrine for the purpose of having a standard to test cleaning products against. Anyways, maybe look into the stench soup Pamela Dalton developed with the bathroom malodor as a base, or seeing what you can get out of thioacetone, which apparently got into some reaction in 1889 that caused an entire city to panic and evacuate from the smell.

Manufacture of certain chemicals within the mercaptan family is fairly hard to do without specialty equipment and atmosphere handlers specifically modified for the laboratory environment in which mercaptans like thioacetone are handled. In the case of thioacetone (or actually trithioacetone due to spontaneous self-polymerization) you will require the glove box/hood to have alkaline permanganate seals and you need to provide some way, even with the seals, to neutralize the mercaptans (such as free copper ions in a sufficient high solution of nitric acid being used as a filter). Finally, even with the Copper and Nitric Acid acting on contained release of thioacetone, to prevent releasing the stink through the building ventilation you need to run all exhaust through a pyrolitic decomposition before venting to any location outside of the sealed atmosphere.
@@Cutest-Bunny998 holy shit that's an intense chemical lol
@@Cutest-Bunny998 and I assume that's the only way to legally make the stuff, I'm no law expert but I imagine you could get in pretty big trouble releasing a biohazard into the environment that is capable of rendering everyone within a half mile radius unconscious or at the very least wishing they were unconscious
Hamilton Morris talked about Thioacetate in one of his podcasts.
He made it because of that wikipedia article & said it wasn't that bad. But he was not sure whether it worked or not.

The worst malodor I experienced was in my youth.
Fifty years ago, the vast majority of radios were using vacuum tubes. In that particular period, manufacturers were trying to save on costs, so they replaced the rectifier valve 6V4 with a single selenium rectifier. That rectifier, unlike the 6V4, didn't like any current above 50 mA; so they were failing regularly during lightings strikes. When they failed they overheated badly. Now selenium is in the same group of sulphur, but it was 100 times more stinky.
Some radio owners replaced the carpets and repainted the walls and, after awhile, throw away the repaired radio.
Selenium - when overheated - produce an odor that stick into the nose for days if not weeks. It has an unnatural stinkiness, which cannot be hold for long. People cannot sleep in a room where selenium compounds are in the air, nor they can stand for very long. I have experienced it first hand all its unpleasantness.
Selenium rectifiers were also used in battery chargers in the '50s and the '60s, charging car batteries and forklifts. It was easy to tell if a mechanic shop or a warehouse had had a charger malfunction, as the smell was left lingering inside for months after the event.
Selenium compounds must be the stinkiest thing after your military grade malodor formula.
Thanks for the video...
This could be an interesting component of Nile's 10/10 stink concoction!
From a quick google search, selenophenol sounds like a good candidate. A few dashes of cadaverine and putrescine wouldn't hurt either.

@@ArruVision I read that it's a pretty stinky one too.
@@AlldaylongRock Based on Periodic Videos, tellurium is..... well.... out of this world stink-wise.
I've only uncontrollably gagged/vomited from an odor once in my lifetime. My mom kept a 32 gal trash bin in her backyard to "collect" her dogs poop. Normally it wasn't very smelly since we lived in the desert. The poop would dry out and as long as the lid was on you couldn't smell anything. One weekend in August my mom called me up and asked me to come empty the bin for her. My cousin and I pull up to her house and go to grab the bin. She then tells us to be careful because it was filled with water. I asked her why it was filled with water and she told me that during the last rain storm, about three weeks prior, the lid had blown off and the bin filled with rain water. The same bin that was half full of dog poop. The same bin that had been sitting outside in direct sunlight, in August, in the desert. Reluctantly, my cousin and I went to lift the bin. The second we got it off the ground the lid popped off and we were immediately overtaken by the raw, boiling, stench of the poop soup. Both my cousin and I set the bin down and fell to our knees wrenching. I never experienced an uncontrollable reaction like that. I honestly thought I was going to vomit my organs up. The smell was absolutely volatile.
i’m sorry but this made me laugh poop soup

My thoughts exactly.
I cant believe that's not the first thing everyone else told him.
I think that he can still smell it like everyone else but his reaction is just very different.
My favorite part of all this is that Nile, himself, said he enjoys making stinky things. It's in one of the perfume-based videos he made years ago, he said he prefers making stuff that smells rather than the nicer smelling things. He has like, three separate videos of different horrible smells he's made, LMAO
"People say I love making smelly things. I disagree. Hi, today we are making a military-grade cloud of stank."
"And next time I'm going to attempt to make something even worse because this was a letdown"
"I don't know where they got the Idea that I like smelly things..." Proceeds to sniff all the ingredients voraciously.

Not that bad, not that bad........ ALLAHU AKBARRR
I’ve heard of this chemical, which was dubbed, “The worst smell in the world” It’s called Thioacetone. I think you should make some of that too and see which one smells worse. Edit: Who else first heard of this from the second episode of Distractable?

Pretty sure thioacetone is worse cause apparently a small quantity of it Can Make people faint from 0.5 km away so
Y'all might want to concoct it in a sealed room instead of a fume hood, so you're not venting the diabolical smell into the world

As a longtime heavy equipment operator at a landfill in Southern Maryland, I can unequivocally attest to the worst smell in human history is...the day after the 4th of July, the first trash truck to the pile was a gentleman who would pickup from all the local crab houses, and it would sit and ferment for a couple of days, rendering the absolute worst smell imaginable. That load would slide out the back of the truck, hit the ground, and you could watch the steam rise from the odor.
I say all this because the first year I was there, I rushed to disperse this pile and spread it out to be compacted. The other operators just sat and grinned at me, knowing the impending result. I then made the mistake of coming out of the cab only to inhale a direct whiff of the ghastly gas, and promptly barfed.
Apparently the usual ritual was to wait for a few more loads and promptly bury this slimy load under a few tons of fresh smelling garbage. No one warned the new guy.
Needless to say, this was literally THE worst smell I ever had the opportunity to smell in my life. The second worst was always the dumpster from the food court at the mall.

The worst smelling substance in the world is apparently Thioacetone. I'd imagine it'd be fairly simple for you to synthesize, but you would regret it.
"During early experiments, a stopper jumped from a bottle of residues, and, although replaced at once, resulted in an immediate complaint of nausea and sickness from colleagues working in a building two hundred yards [180 m] away" Lol he'd still sniff it straight from a jar
There's no way he'd actually make it... right?
Nile will huff it
It's also pretty unstable and readily polymerizes to trithioacetone in room conditions. Nevertheless, I assume It's not a great idea to synthesize semi-weapon-grade stinky chemical in general laboratories lol
It has -thio- in it so I can imagine the stench
I had a stint as a crime scene cleaner, which unfortunately wasn't just crime scenes, but just anywhere you can imagine malodors. And a couple of my co-workers had this as well, but whenever we'd deal with putrefaction, it would actually trigger anxiety and a fight or fight response. Goosebumps would go up my arms, my scalp would feel prickly, and I'd feel like I had to go to the bathroom. Have always wondered if there was something about that chemical composition that maybe not everyone can smell, like the infamous bitter almond scent.

Maybe for testing vent/extraction systems and preventing bathroom odors from permeating unintended areas. Or might have been some CD stuff and seeing how much bucket-toilet odor could be tolerated in a fallout shelter.
Honestly that's the most military thing ever. Spend resources to perfectly simulate a WC odors to make the ventilation better.

Having made it yourself, you likely desensitized your smell receptors to each ingredient as you worked through the process.
That would explain why everyone else reacted more negatively *and* why the people outside of the lab reacted the worst out of anyone.
Prolonged exposure to smells causes our bodies to gradually turn down our reaction to them, and this can progress so far as to make us totally oblivious to a smell that someone else finds very distressing.
Just like cooking
they made it in the fume hood though, so he shouldn't have smelled anything while making it

@@phantom_isle Yeah but he smelt each ingredient before he actually started mixing them together. I think that’s what the OG commenter was referring too. He desensitized himself to each individual ingredient so it didn’t smell as bad to him when it was mixed together

Background info for anyone interested, text is from an article I found:
"In 1998, Pamela Dalton, a cognitive psychologist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, was tasked with developing a stink bomb for the Defense Department. Her experiments found that people from different backgrounds and different parts of the world, who grew up smelling and eating different things, often completely disagreed about which smells were good or bad.
The best candidate she found for a universally distasteful smell was something called "U.S. Government Standard Bathroom Malodor," a substance that was designed to mimic the scent of military field latrines in order to test cleaning products. She chose the aromatic liquid as the base of her stink-bomb recipe. The resulting formula, which she called Stench Soup, may well be the worst smell ever created."

the "standard" word is in its name because there must exist upgraded version.
Farts gang
@@proosee pretty sure the entire list is to mislead US' enemies trying to make farts
i can make my smart smell worse than that one kid who ran a lap and forgor his deodrant
You know he's a stinky smell connoisseur when he call the end product “It's not that bad”.
or his receptors are destroyed for staying too much in the lab xd
>military grade stink
>"I think I need to come up with something worse"
I'm with Nile on this one. On a scale of 0 to Thioacetone, if you're able to simply replace the lid and say it smells bad, then it's trash.
For comparison, if that were Thioacetone, the moment you removed the lid everyone within a 1kM radius would be vomiting and evacuating.
...please make Thioacetone.
You gave him every reason he shouldn't in your comment.
Good chance he still might.
Tell him in an email.
@@dagda1180 Why don't we all email him :)
@@tabletoparcade4203 that would be spamming. Not regarded as a cool move.
@@mrcakeday1439 No no no.
If one person were to send multiple then that would be spam. Or, if multiple people were to send the same message with the sole intent to grief, then that too could be called spam.
But if multiple people, each under their own volition, were to make the same legitimate request, then that would be a petition; even when coordinated, it's still not spam.
22:05 I loved this. It's so simple and innocent, but this really is what science is all about. He had a question, based on everything he knew about the construction of the floor and bottle (aka research), he constructed a hypotheis, conducted an experiment, and collected the data while communicating the results via video recording. Proper science.
such a thorough experiment, one to make a report of
@@populationme I'm actually writing 700 papers on this experiment, inspiring.
@@rautamies2305 bro i exhaled so hard at that
That was a scientific breakthrough he deserves 10000,00000000 awards
You forgot, we have to repeat it many times, and replicate it in another part of the world.
"This is hexanoic acid."
"Dear god."
"There's more."
"No..."
"It is in the fridge"
And that fridge was never used again
MY SANDVICH!
something the medic would actually keep in his fridge
Had some shrimp based fish-sauce flavored kimchi that I brought to work and put in the work site fridge on site... I was the only person who used that fridge for the duration of the job after that. I had ensured that NOBODY would ever steal my lunch.
@@megastoejoe disgusting dude.
@@megastoejoe Friend of mine did the same thing to their own fridge accidentally with squid. They bullshitted the landlord - "food keeps spoiling" - and got their fridge replaced. I wonder if they could have just peroxided it or something.

nileblue: fart jar
Nile: "I don't know why people think I like making stinky stuff"
Guy in the office: "No, I don't wanna smell it."
Yeah but they probably new what he was doing
@Russell White yupp
Reminder for everyone surprised Nile was underwhelmed... this is the man that distilled his own urine.
Exactly! This man is amazing enough to make Diamond water
If him being underwhelmed does not speak to his level of "I will make malodorous chemicals for fun" I don't know what can
This is the same man that smelled CYANIDE just to see if it really smelled like almonds
It’s so fun how when humans smell something bad there’s an intense primal instinct to make all your friends smell it
"Primal instinct" is probably right. The only reason we became the dominant species is our ability to share knowledge, so "bad stink is bad! Smell bad stink!" Is a beneficial instinct
The same instinct that makes us pick earwax out our ears then smell it ;)
😅 It's so true!!!
@@Aspire198 In my 43 years of life I have never pulled my finger out of my ear and smelled it.
Until just now.
@@Flint-Dibble-the-Don ayo this shit kinda smell good? Yo this straight BUSSIN
In perfumery, the distance at which you can smell it, the strength of it, is called "scent throw" or "fragrance throw", often just "throw", and the trail left behind as you (or the thing you are smelling) move is called the "sillage".
I kept thinking about these two facts with increasing dread throughout this video.
NileBlue: "I don't know why people think I like making stinky stuff"
Also NileBlue: "Oh Hexanoic Acid. The stuff I made before that smells like stinky cheese vomit."
omg the bots are here too 🤣
Of all the comments this bot could reply to, it replies to the one about stinky cheese vomit.. 🤣
Butanoic is bad enough when it comes to ‘stinky cheese vomit’, as it’s present in all three (and faeces)! I can’t imagine Hexanoic being any better? No one has touched on Putrescine and Cadaverine yet 😱

Can't wait for the NileGreen parody.
I love that Nile is consistently the only person in the building that can tolerate the weird potions that Nile makes
So yeah, this scent wasn’t developed as a weapon, but to simulate the smell of a military latrine for the purpose of having a standard to test cleaning products against. Anyways, maybe look into the stench soup Pamela Dalton developed with the bathroom malodor as a base, or seeing what you can get out of thioacetone, which apparently got into some reaction in 1889 that caused an entire city to panic and evacuate from the smell.
Thioacetone is definitely the gold standard of smell but it also desensitize you to the smell if you are exposed to high concentrations.
We have developed dangerous bomb containing deadliest virus but dont worry its purpose is to test cleaning products against
Have you smelled it?
It was actually developed as a weapon! As a crowd control measure, more specifically.
“Military grade stink” is probably the most hilarious thing I have ever heard lmfao
Military grade? Our hard earned tax dollars at work folks! It is hilarious tho!
@thomas truong yeah, because you're spending them on developing stink bombs.
The big terms / names Ley and ash and don cannot be misused in names, and the misused names Ashley and Donald must be changed - I am the only being reflecting nature related terms and special names like Ley / Leya etc!

How do you do that😂
4:56 it looks like he pulled out a grey cat from that can for a second
This killed me lmao
He did thats his cat patches
I think what we've learned from this is that, if Nile says something doesn't smell too bad, it most definitely smells too bad
"So why are you destroying the table?"
"we're on break"
I felt this on a spiritual level.
17:09
You can't be on break if you're not breaking things, it is just how words work, yes?
This should go straight to nile out of context
That was surreal, lol.
Friends and i cleaned out a barn for his grandma on a farm in IL. She left a huge side of beef (400lb) in a sealed, forgotten, non-working freezer in a barn for about 30 years. Turned to gray sludge that leaked and killed all grass and vegetation it touched for 40 feet - Bare ground to this day. Entire neighborhood smelled for miles causing panic, and emergency crews had to attend. The stench was absolutely unfathomable - words just fail.
Of all the horrific things I’ve read in this thread I have to imagine that has to be one of the worst. Good god.
This reads like an excerpt from a Lovecraft book detailing the creation of a corrosive eldritch sludge deity
@brainkrieg1423 No judgement, I'm just amazed that you couldn't find a chuck roast for 3 days in an apartment. Was it a big apartment, small chuck roast, lots of reorganizing going on, what?
LOL oh shit! ahahah. Sometime after my grandpa jumped into the shadow realm. We cleaned out all of his refidgerators...first of all we didn't know he had 4 of them. One of them in the kitchen another 2 in the the garage. He had left one of the refrigerators some small bites of random stuff, and a some empty ben an jerry ice-cream containers. The last bites had turned into sludge...and were dated from 15ish years before hand. The stench was...unique, and in the top 30 of the more unfathanobly awful stenches ever created. The poorly sealed plastic bags: because had the attention span of of spoilt brat at 9. of one was a we didn't know what other than: Sulphur something for medication medication, and guessed at old sandwitches only because the shape. Then had found in the very very back of a yet another yet another broken and turned out to be plugged and baaairly function freezer...was a bunch of cans of decaying sprays....including, but not limited to: a ton of of bug sprays (that had eaten through the plastic) hair sprays...from the 80s (he was a pack rat)...and an exploded can of soda's an beer....al formed a frozen sludge...and shen defrosted, unleashed the newly crowned champion of god awful stenches.
I can confirm: dead things in refrigerators stink to hell and back.
Why would decomposing flesh kill vegetation? Shouldn’t it act as a fertilizer?
It is actually interesting that Nile doesn't really get bothered by bad smells, saw it in "making the slinkiest chemical known to man". He has an insane smell tolerance.
Nile: an extremely smart chemist, very careful
Also Nile: sniffs chemicals directly
yeah xD
As a Nanoplasmonics Physicist [even] I'm aware of the gravity associated with sniffing compounds. I respect all realms of science. Tipped Hat. New subscriber.
Also Nile: Wonders why he lost his sense of smell.
you can only (safely) act like a stupid chemist once you know how to smart chemist
He forgot what “wafting” is from high school.
Nile: “It is stated that the smell induces fear or a fight-or-flight response.”
Also Nile: *singular gag*
His insides chose flight
@@HaveANiceDayLol. fight*
To be fair, with how desensitized his olfactory senses are, it takes a lot to make him gag
@@why_oh_elle the smell of a rotting human corpse is incredibly identifiable. It most cases it strikes fear in it’s smeller.😊
I think the people who they tested it on were like.. really really sheltered or something.
So he's a pee chemist and now he's a fart chemist. He's actually trying to create a homunculus with all bodily functions.
So he is going become a poop chemist in the future? 😳
Then there's poop essence

@@physicsisawesome696 pretty sure he already made skatole which is a chemical that contributes to the smell of poop

Watching Nile sample all the horrible smells like a kid in a candy makes me believe he does actually like to make stinky things
his face every single time he smells it is just of pure wonder.
@@citrufruit It's that morbid curiosity; everybody has it. I've done similar when I smell something bad, even if I know it's bad.
