its called the Leidenfrost effect. your skin is warm enough that it makes the LN2 turns to gas before it hits your skin, creating a barrier of gas preventing your hand from freezing.
You don't dip your hands into LN2 and leave them there because your hands will cool down enough for the Leidenfrost effect to wear off and then freeze your hand. You need a big temperature differential for it to stay in place.
You really don't want to put your hand in LN2 for more than a couple seconds. It gets frosty quick. Quickly pulling a Gatorade from the bottom of a 5 gal water cooler full of nitrogen is about as far as I'd personally go. Same goes for liquid oxygen, btw.
You know, it's been really great watching Jay's LN2 initiation and apprenticeship. Watching this video again and then watching the latest RIP Steve Gamers Nexus, my respect for Jay increased exponentially. It's really satisfying to follow someone with a passion for something and watching them learn, growing in confidence, and eventually becoming proficient enough to take the leaderboards every time a new CPU or GPU comes out. Respect Jay. Total respect.
The reason why pouring nitrogen on yourself is safer than wearing fabric and holding nitrogen is because of "Leidenfrost effect". Essentially the basics is that because the temperature of a liquid is so low compared to your skin temperature, the liquid will form a vapor-like surface between you and itself to keep from boiling rapidly. This is why when you heat a pan on a high temperature then pour water, the water will slide instead of Boil immediately. When you wear fabric or somethign that can absorb the cold substance, it will burn you since it has nowhere to escape except to go through you.
@@StudleyDuderight its the differences in temperature. If you are colder than boiling liquid, you will absorb the heat and get burned. but if the liquid is extremely colder than your body temperature, then it will slide right off of you because of the vapor between you and the cold liquid.
The reason it's safer to have bare skin over gloves is because of the Leidenfrost effect. The liquid nitrogen boils on your skin creating a small barrier which stops the rest of the nitrogen from touching the surface. Gloves are an insulator so there's not as much heat boiling the nitrogen. it'll freeze quickly but slower than direct contact therefore, paradoxical freezing your hand quicker :)
Amazing to see how quick Vince is at setting up the board and stuff. Watching Jay or Stever from GN, who are reasonably familiar versus Vince makes me realize just how long Vince has been doing this. Just another day at the office for him haha.
AgtX999 what really surprises me is that some random person on you tube thinks they know more about working on computers than two professionals one jay is ocd and a perfectionist and the other a world record holder who has custom Gpu’s named after him , then some loser on UA-cam who probably buys a fucking Dell thanks that they don’t know how to disperse a little static Gtfoh
I mean it wasn't even fair that he posted that under his name, considering Vince brought all the equipment and did almost everything. When jay does his OC from scratch alone then you can say that actually he broke the world record.
Since Vince didn't give you a great explanation as to why gloves aren't a good idea to wear, I thought I'd have a crack with my limited knowledge of chemistry. What protects your hands when you pour liquid N2 over them is the Leidenfrost effect. Basically what happens is when there is a significant delta between the liquid and the surface it is coming into contact with, the liquid instantly vaporizes and forces away the rest of the liquid as the new formed gas expands. The danger with wearing gloves is when the density (in terms of molecules per volume) is less than that of your skin. The solid surface then loses that significant difference in temperature much quicker and then loses the Leidenfrost effect. This allows the liquid to directly contact the solid material resulting in accelerated cooling, which is further worsened if the material were to be porous (allowing the N2 to soak into it).
I just assumed that it caused it to remain in contact with the skin longer (by acting like a barrier between the N2 and the outside air) allowing a larger amount of heat to be leached away from the skin surface. Either way, there's a reason why there's a difference between safety-gear and proper-safety-gear. This is one of those cases where having the incorrect safety-gear can make things worse.
Btw, the reason why LN2 just boils off your bare skin is because of the Leidenfrost effect. When the temperature difference between a liquid and a surface is very high, it'll boil so fast, the vapour acts as an insulator and separates the surface from the liquid. tldr, the LN2 is boiling so fast, it doesn't have time to freeze your skin. Gloves/fabric interferes with that, so the LN2 actually does get to freeze you.
I Love watching this classic video! Seeing the (at this point) antique hardware putting out a TSX score of 6442... Now the world record numbers are in the 30K (3090 SLI)
Yes, that would be the safest way. The heat from your body creates a barrier that makes the liquid nitrogen just roll off your skin. Its called the Leidenfrost effect. But if you held on to the liquid or it got stuck in your balls, you are done dude...
With Jay's latest video on the EVGA pcb's he received today, I cant help going back to older videos they've done with Vince. Looks like you guys have a tight bond!
cold electronical lanes, are actually really usefull ! google superconductor ! :P the thing , they fight with the heaterplate is the condensation and freezing ( wich as we all know, is water .. and water and electricity is not good ) :P technically electricity loves frozen :P but dry frozen without condensation and actual freeze
While not literally correct, it's figuratively accurate. As temperatures go down, electrons slow down and electricity "flows" more slowly. It's not actually frozen, but for a six word explanation to someone who isn't Gordon Freeman, it's all you need to hear.
Krytern UK yep, but don't think they have a solid, liquid and gassous, they're not an element. If with "frozen" Jay meant a state of low mobility, the phrase have sense: current is moving electrons, obviously they don't like to be "slowed down"(?)
WOW KingpIn was my idol when i was little overclocker, i overclocked from air to dryice to ln2 also, great man, would love to hear about his professional life and what he does to continue overclocking everything and keep beating records

Somebody showcased a system with FOUR Kingpins recently! As for the Vaseline; when it dries, its properties work similar to a wax, which is why the liquid can't get to components. On a side note, I definitely don't recommend mime-drinking Liquid Nitrogen again in a video - there are some people out there who might try it for real and that's not great PR if they get hurt... In any case, congratulations - according to the site, you are still the top record holder.
Its the Lidenfrost Effect: Your skin is warm enough to boil the LN2 faster than it can stick, creating a vapor barrier between your skin and the liquid. A cloth like a glove would allow the LN2 to soak in and freeze, putting all of that cold right onto you with no barrier.
I'd like to see a vacuum build.. Like, actually put the computer into a vacuum chamber. 6:00 "because electricity doesnt like to be frozen?" Dude........... The lower the temps, the BETTER, even reaching as far as absolute zero, because electrons arent affected by that, they can still move at the speed of light. The resistance decreases, which leads to superconductivity. The ONLY reason its "bad" to go too cold HERE is because we're inside an atmosphere with water vapor that will freeze and condense on the chip. If you're seriously talking about real preformance, as in Type 3 civilizations building huge matrioshka brains around their home sun, you want as LOW temps as possible, as close as possible to absolute zero. Your processing power per watt rises exponentially the colder it is, Isaac Arthur has a great video on this on his channel. THATS why i want to see a vacuum build, where you can chill the card as much as possible without any frozen ice or water vapor fucking things up. But it would be very hard to ensure that all water molecules were sucked out with the air.. You'd need to first drown the entire thing in some hydrophobic oil.
You can't just put a motherboard in a vacuum, because out-gassing is a thing. Also, if you do, heating of normal components becomes a huge problem because there is nothing to carry any heat away. What is really need is just chamber with zero humidity.
Computers aren't made out of electrons. Plus, at really low temperatures, undesirable phenomenons like quantic tunneling happen more frequently and it can affect perf
There's a lower and upper limit temperature for every electronic components. It's indicated in their datasheets. Also, electrolytic capacitors will blow up from the moment you sucked the all the air inside the container where the mobo resides.
Defined Edits no you can overclock a tesla style electric car, copper conducts waaaay better when cooled.. so you could get way more speed out with LN2
This is really cool. Jaystwocents got me into overclocking and vince guided me through my first couple ln2 attempts. No video can do justice for the amount of work, knowledge, and skill required for getting that world record. Good job Vince, and jay I guess...
Newb question....I suppose this is one of those things you have to stand there and keep pouring, right? No possibility of a closed loop? (or whatever it's called)
Yes, its simple, you create a fully enclosed environment that forces the nitrogen to stay in liquid form, by way of very slow system cycling, with periodically placed phase change filters.... Its simple really.
So rather than having to constantly pour the LN2 in is there some way you can connect a tank and pump it through in the same manner as your liquid systems?
I work at an air Separation plant, I fill cryo semis with LOX and LIN so i saw liquid nitrogen and was interested. Cool stuff but boy do the pipes we use to transfer it to the trailers get chilly.

So it's a similar principle to putting your hand in molten lead, only the gas barrier is the LN2 itself instead of the water vapor from your hand?
Rodrigo Fonyat Yeah I guess you could put it like that

Since Vince didn't give you a great explanation as to why gloves aren't a good idea to wear, I thought I'd have a crack with my limited knowledge of chemistry.
What protects your hands when you pour liquid N2 over them is the Leidenfrost effect. Basically what happens is when there is a significant delta between the liquid and the surface it is coming into contact with, the liquid instantly vaporizes and forces away the rest of the liquid as the new formed gas expands.

I mean you could potentially build a closed loop but the liquid n2 generating part of the loop would be the size of a garden shed at least
malachai6669 actually vince is working on a closed loop system
Yes, its simple, you create a fully enclosed environment that forces the nitrogen to stay in liquid form, by way of very slow system cycling, with periodically placed phase change filters.... Its simple really.
this is no.1 video from all videos u ever made! I could watch that for a week without any break
The Derrick rose jacket looks dope tho.
Seeing all those graphics cards behind em makes my eyes water
So rather than having to constantly pour the LN2 in is there some way you can connect a tank and pump it through in the same manner as your liquid systems?
There probably is but someone has to engineer it.
I played with LOX in the military. That's one of those substances you have to have extreme respect for. Ever see a frog shatter into a hundred pieces?
What about LH2 though?
@@whiplash7400 Never messed with it. We put LOX in our aircraft for crew emergency breathing oxygen.
@@dmsdmullins aircrew member here, It's always fascinating watching maintainers refill the lox.
I work at an air Separation plant, I fill cryo semis with LOX and LIN so i saw liquid nitrogen and was interested. Cool stuff but boy do the pipes we use to transfer it to the trailers get chilly.
Byron Cowan “Air separation” sounds like a made up subject. What is it? Just two fans facing opposite directions?
