It would kinda be the same as amputation, the needles are too small to cause any real damage. An atom thick graphene cut (if possible) most likely wouldn't be painful, noticable, and the cut would leave no opening in the skin.

Graphene : strongest substance ever. Even stronger than diamond.
It's kept in a plastic box for protection.
Huh
It’s one atom thick. You would lose it pretty quickly
Yeah its strong material... So is tungsten which is used for lightbulb filaments... A very small amount of a strong material is still weak. It is simply stronger than the same object made of other materials. A lot of graphene will however be very strong.
Btw diamond is actually pretty weak. It is hard, not strong. It can be easily crushed or shattered from strong impacts but due to its hardness makes great drills or other friction based tools that wear things down.
Graphene is a different material with different uses. primarily electrical uses i would think due to its low electrical resistance.
@@oceanbytez847 it's just a joke mate I understand what you are saying
@@oceanbytez847 you see Graphene as a single atom thick sheet is very strong I quote " it is so strong that it can withstand an elephant standing on a pencil " end quote a scientist ( i dont remember his name, I am very forgetful when it comes to names ).
Graphene is pretty strong as well, but not hard as in case of dimond as you have said, it has multiple implication out side the electricals industry due do is strength it can be used elsewhere also.
When you stack up Graphene it just becomes graphite and loses its abilities, so if in your endavour to make it stronger you are stacking more Graphene sheets and doing just the opposite.

It should be noted that diamond is significantly hard, which doesn’t equal durable.
This means that if you distribute the diamond thinly (such as in the form of a sheet) it will be extremely brittle, and therefore less durable than something like steel, which is softer and will bend rather than break when under force.
Exacly nothing is harder than a dimond only a dimin can cut a dimon
diamonds can take hits from hammers, he did it on this show.

Why didn't you put the real one layer of graphite under the microscope for comparison?
I think you would have seen just darkness.
Graphene is carbon atoms. You can't even see relatively large molecules with powerful microscopes, let alone the 6th smallest element of periodic table
at the edge so we would see the color change
Dark Mage makes no sense since you can already see the layer with the naked eye.
@@theotherarmand You would still just see a slightly darker tint and no detail since the atoms are to small.

Could you use multiple layers of graphene to create an indestructible material?
Edit: When talking about graphite sheets you mentioned the graphene were very small flakes, so if you use actual squares of graphene could you create an even *stronger* material?
Batteries😱
Impossible brother. Graphene on molecular level is just fused benzene rings and the height you'll see in sheets is held by weak Van Der Waals forces.
Oh and by fused benzene rings I mean of course no hydrogens will be available
But I guess you can use it just like steel but it'll wear off pretty soon
@@DarkMage2k correct
Graphene is hard, but is not that resistant against impacts (toughness). So I guess the phone's graphene screen is gonna break if you drop it really high.

I hate how people keep talking about how strong it is without actually showing how strong it is. Yeah what can you do about it? Slam a hammer and it won't break?
I've actually touched a graphene from my laboratory and it is very brittle, every graphene sample we had are taken with care because it is very brittle. Transfering a small area of graphene from 1 place to another is very challenging and some of them breaks just because some water are on it. So yeah, I don't get it why most people call it "strongest material in the world".

Did you know, diamonds, although they ARE the hardest mineral on earth, they’re NOT the *strongest* mineral on earth? In fact diamonds are actually one of the weakest minerals on earth!! It’s because they’re so hard!!! Let me explain: Glass is a pretty hard substance, harder than plastic, and sure it would feel pretty painful if someone hit you with a glass bottle where is a plastic bottle wouldn’t hurt as much. That’s hardness. However if you were to throw the two bottles at the wall the glass bottle would shatter instantly and the plastic bottle would survive just fine! That is strength!

That sheet of graphene is when we start our internet history that graphite sheet is our current history
my all time fav channel 😍😍
I was wondering
A 1 atom thick graphene cannot be strong, it has to be stacked.
But if it is stacked, it would become graphite which is definitely not the strongest, then how is graphene the strongest?
Please tell me
As you said, graphite is multiple layers of graphene, however these layers are not connected as strongly as the carbon atoms in each particular layer (which is what gives graphene its great strength), so they are able to "slide" against one another, making it much easier to break a piece of graphite than just one layer of strongly bound carbon atoms
