      POSTING AGAIN AS YOU DELETED MY COMMENT TWICE:
      Upset that you've partnered with BetterHelp, they are a complete scam, barely any of the "therapists" are real registered professionals, and they have been found out for selling all their user data to third party websites (facebook, insta, snapchat etc) so they can sell these people, that actually NEED help, products directed towards them. Keep in mind they state in app that all information from VERY VERY personal questionnaires would be kept between you and your "therapist" which is a complete lie. DO NOT use BetterHelp and do your research Jesse!

    Hey Jesse! Mechanical engineer here! Glad that bar didnt snap. Yall were definitely not taking the right safety precautions.
    In the future if you're going to snap this. Please do so behind a blast shield and wear hearing protection. When steel snaps its gonna be LOUD af. And it will cause hearing damage. Those steel chips that fragment off will fly at the speed of sound. Could cause some serious damage.

    • @allylilith5605
      @allylilith5605 Рік тому +4

      not a mechanical engineer here, but wouldnt it need to be more hardened steel than this to risk snapping? it plastically deformed as a failing point, I assumed that means it will keep doing that rather than risking to snap

      @@allylilith5605 Steel will snap. If you want to know more just pull up the stress-strain graph for the typical steel used in barbells. They just didn't hit that point on the graph where they would get the steel to fracture but these material properties are all known.

    I think the bar is rated for cantilever bending (fix it on one side and apply load on the other). What they are doing is a 4 Pct bending test - the lever is much shorter and so bending moment much smaller.

    I wanted to see Hooper lift it bent with over 1000lbs on it. He would have only needed to lift 1".
