Thioacetone is something that I've been wanting to make for a while, and now, I finally get to experience its horror. Will it be as horrendously stinky as it is claimed to be? Will it make me pass out and vomit?

Renting an island to test a bio weapon is but the first step into supervillainhood

True villains set up their most dangerous labs in "satellite countries" on different continent, and test stuff on unsuspecting public. Or start a war and test on enemy personnel.

No joke!!😂
I think the reason that Nile wasn’t as phased by the smell as the camera man is because he’s already really used to smelling foul odors. As he mentioned in the intro, he’s made a lot of incredibly stinky substances over the years, and just before smelling the thioacetone he had already caught a massive whiff of the trithioacetone that had gotten on his glove. Thus, he’d more or less had developed a tolerance, similar to how people who eat spicy foods develop a spice tolerance.
I concur. It is similiar to spicy foods - If you know you can take it, it becomes fare less dreadful.
Also how most nurses over 50 are completely noseblind
4/4 marks
no he's actually smell blind and it will put him into danger one day in this field. He should be very aware of it and consider his setback in science more to prevent accidents he can't smell in time.
Nile really read multiple credible sources about the horrors of thioacetone and thought "nah these guys were just weak, I'm built different"
And he was right lol
Yea he is.
I'll admit, when I hear a story about something that smells so bad it cleared out an entire town, part of me wants to know what it smells like.
Dude got built-in gas masks.
To be fair, azidoazide azide turned to be overblown, for example.
Nile: *deep sniff* yeah i mean, it smells not so bad
cameraman: *literally dies*
Nigel's olfactory sensors just got blasted into oblivion with all of these stinky chemicals lmao
The day Nile think's the chemical he made smells bad we all die
his nose internals has been burned off from the experiments.
His nostrils have declined from the frequent inhalation of noxious gasses. I bet he barely knows when someone farts!
and it's not the first time he's made something and had this same reaction
the scientists originally did it with 100g... that was 0.25g, and it covered the entire island and then some more.
imagine someone doing 100g in middle of manhattan. i wonder if that would trigger a state of emergency.
Next time I'm in New York, I'll watch this video and follow along.

I literally just discovered Nigel but his “totally not” mad scientist ways have me enthralled.
Also he’s totally on a list.
*on many lists
Have worked in Occupational medicine, and not surprised that people had different reactions, or that a sudden strong smell could cause vomiting or a panic. Some people are very sensitive to chemical smells, and we would get reports along the lines that 5 people went to the ER (and were fine) in a workplace if the cleaners used a different cleaning solution with a new smell, even though harmless.
Not surprisingly, when some people smell strong chemicals that are irritating, they believe they may be poisoned, which causes them to panic, which causes them to have more symptoms, then they panic more, etc. Then add in seeing another person feeling affected too, and it happens.
Humans seem to have evolved the ability to become sick by just observing someone else who is sick. It's why watching someone throw up makes you want to throw up, there's a chance that the whole community could have been poisoned. Of course, that kind of sympathetic reaction is a double-edged sword, but it must have worked for us to be alive to experience it!
It might not be panic. Just a very strong sense of smell. I'm always first to notice, if something in the fridge has gone bad. I can't stand spicy foods or anything rancid. What to most people smells slightly off and tastes fine, to me is several magnitudes worse. I have, after tasting a duck, that was shot out of season, and might have smelled a bit muddy to the rest of the family, actually washed my mouth out with a bar of soap. I've never even liked balloons, because they smell awful.

Oh his nose is definitely broken. I bet it's not that uncommon among experimental chemists.
He reminds me of a chemistry teacher sub we had at school, who'd destroyed most of his sense of smell. It was worryingly easy to egg him on to use *way* too much ingredients. He also gave us (7th graders) any chemical we wanted to take home, he didn't gaf. Just wanted to do his weird expetiments.
He once painted the whole classroom and some of the slower students purple with iodine gas and got a talking to from the principal. The following week we heard a muffled boom from the direction of the class. No one was allowed in to that wing of the building and chemistry classes were canceled for a month. We didn't see him after that.

Yes
I once worked in a chemical plant that made acrylic acid and downstream products of ethyl acrylate and butyl acrylate. The odor was so strong that we had to enclose the entire process pump system in a vacuum enclosure. We burned all of the air and water from the unit at 1500 F. The chemicals desensitized the operators in the unit. They tended to absorb into leather and we carried it out in our belts and wallets. I could empty a checkout lane in the grocery. Married people had to change clothes in the garage and bathe before entering their homes.
What exactly did it smell like? Or how would you describe it? Other than bad breath, farts, and dead animals, I can’t think of anything that smells fouler
Every step of this was like a cosmic horror story.

It's hilarious how resistant you are to this stuff. Birds could've been falling from the trees and you'd still be going "it's actually not thaat baad" :D
Imagine had he not just made .1% of the original amount
It’s not that he’s resistant, it’s that he’s probably had lots of close calls with taking random whiffs of acid fumes, and they’ve burned his nostrils, personally I have the same issue, when I was growing up I found a unlabeled jug sitting outside and my childlike curiosity got the better of me, and come to find out it was muriatic acid, I can barely smell unless it’s potent in the air, or it’s a sulfur compound like sulfer dioxide, my sniffer still works good for that in warning me of my inevitable death to get away
The trees start to droop. The birds fall from the sky. Arboreal animals drop. Bugs fall, and terrestrial bugs writhe on the ground. Worms emerge, writhing. Mammals vomit. Turtles drown themselves avoiding the stench. The fish are fine tho.
Nile: It’s not so bad.
Lol ya.. Im the same way as him .. really resistant to bad smells
The trees could be the one falling and he'd be like "not that bad"

Exactly
Also, Long Covid is a bitch, speaking from experience. I can no longer smell smoke, detect the acridness of alcohol, or (god help me) my cat's litter box. I can no longer trust my nose to tell me if there's something burning, if that glass on the counter is vodka or water, or if the litter is starting to stink. That last one just means being MORE clean, but the other two are really friggin disturbing.
If Nile's suffering from LC, it might drastically change how he's gotta do things in the lab. He might not be able to trust his nose for scents that provide basic, practical input for every day work there.

In small quantities, H2S is VERY detectable (some sources cite 8 ppb as the odour threshold), but in higher concentrations (above 100 ppm), it has an anaesthetic effect on the olfactory system, which is worrisome because at just a bit higher levels than those at which anosmia is induced (500+ ppm), it can be fatal. My high school chemistry teacher put it this way - when you can smell H2S, you're fine...it's when you CAN'T smell it that you're in trouble. So that would suggest that nose-blindness, as it were, is a temporary thing in this case (I know of no research that shows permanence, although exposure to H2S can have other permanent neurological effects), only occurring when there is a serious failure of safety protocols to protect against exposure to high concentrations of H2S.
My own experience bears this out. I also worked a lot with H2S in my research days, doing environmental chemistry. Every once in awhile I'd run a process called CRS (chromium-reducible sulphur), wherein chromium (III) chloride hexahydrate (a green chemical) is reduced to chromium (II) chloride tetrahydrate (blue) in a mercury-amalgamated zinc column, and then the chromium (II) is used (with the application of heat) to react with sulphur minerals (particularly pyrite...I was using sediment samples and trying to find the sulphide mineral content therein), resulting in the evolution of H2S gas, which is collected in NaOH traps. The whole system is continuously flushed with nitrogen, to drive the evolved H2S from sealed flasks into the hydroxide traps, and then when the reaction is done, a spectrophotometric technique (Cline's reagent) is used to measure the concentration of sulphide in the trap. A little stoichiometry, and you can calculate how much sulphide minerals (or pyrite-equivalent thereof) were in your sample. When doing this procedure, most of the H2S gets trapped, but because the odour threshold is so low, even a little bit escaping will be noticed. I never became less sensitive to the smell though, even though I rarely ran the reaction in a fume hood, so I was getting exposed to extremely low levels of H2S on a regular basis.
You wouldn’t happen to have a spare gallon would you? (asking for a friend)
Im sure he does
Why is this comment so low
Package thieves get ready for chemical warfare
OH LORD YES!!!
we gotta get macaulay culkin to get a whiff of this
Nile: 11:03 I thought that it was just a waste of my time
The liquid: how dare you… fine I’ll give u the reaction u wanted 🙄
This experiment was like a suspense thriller movie...
When his friend goes "shut it down" I just imagine him laughing manically and eventually going "there IS no way to shut it down "
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

There are no brakes on the stink train!
Nigel stands in a room full of mustard gas he's created. Paint peels from walls as his cameraman wails in agony, even through his gas mask his eyes and throat burn.
Nigel: come on, its not that bad.
He DID just accidentally make and inhale WWI era tear gas and burn his sinuses really badly when trying to make the cherry flavoring from paint thinner. So, pretty on the mark
"This is unpleasant but it really can't be more than a 6/10"
*cameraman vomits and passes out*
the cameraman never dies
He holds a vial of neurotoxin vapor to his nose. Everyone in the surrounding province is dead. The cameraman is a smoldering husk on the lab floor.
"It's not thaaat baad."
this is the only case someone is stronger than the guy behind the camera
Dude, I am like this as well. People will say something is absolutely horrendous smelly but to me its just a new smell.
In fact some "bad" smell i actually consider quite plesant like fresh hot asphalt or even skunks.
They smell so weird i kinda like smelling them
In the shop I once worked, the company handed out a turkey to each employee at Christmas time. Fast forward to August. One turkey had been left in the freezer... but someone had moved the freezer and evidently the plug had come out of the wall... that meant the power had been disconnected for up to eight months. Someone opened the lid, and well, I was about 100 feet away. Never smelled anything worse in my life!
Friend of mine went catfishing with another friend on a friday night. He forgot about the bait and ended up leaving a tub of chicken livers under his seat over the weekend.
August. Southwest Ohio. Black El Camino. Windows up.
He cleaned that car 3x. He had to drive that car with his head hanging out the window like a dog taking a ride for a month.
I was ready for Nile to just casually say 'so I decided to resurrect Baumann and Fromm to ask them about thioacetone'
Same XD
same lol
ah, yes. what every smart scientist should do when they have a question to ask
...but it turns out they only speak German so I need to use Google translate 😂😂😂
same omgg 💀💀
I love that you were alerted to a smell, at night with no one around, that your brother had never smelled before, and assumed it had nothing to do with you making one of the stinkiest things ever concocted.
Right??? I got such second hand anxiety when he just went right back to the experiment lol
Nilered: looks like no one has made it in 60 years 🤔
Also nilered: lets just cook some up real quick 😃
Talk about dedication, renting an island🙂 well done!!👍👍
Every time you do not post for a longer while, I always expect that I'll find a headline along the lines of: "UA-camr chemist arrested for creating a chemical that stunk up the whole town, causing x amount of casualties"
Wait let me see if it's in the list on what's gonna happen
Or even worse "UA-camr chemist found dead after creating deadly chemical"
@@EternalTheMandarinGoddess Nile Red's spirit: after seeing my dead body, i kinda thought i should not do this anymore, but i decided to continue anyway
Nilegreen moment
Anybody else see the writing in the mix at 6:22 ?
the fact that he rented an island makes it feel like a crazy holiday special episode of nilered
anime beach episode
Maybe it was Halloween belated special!
Made an island unfit for birds, you mean!!!
Its the nilered beach episode lmao
He went all out on the budget.
The most stinky chemicals are my farts at 3:00 am in the morning
Lol
NileRed:
Likes the way Red Bull tastes
Huffs cyanide
Doesn't think literal US military weaponized poop fumes smells that bad
Nile torturing his cameraman with the smell of the chemical while he's desensitized to the smell is pure evil 😂
Isn't his cameraman also his friend? Wow, some friend Nigel is.
When he's just like, zooming in, probably thinking, "this'll make for great content"... he really is an evil scientist hahahha
To be fair, I'd occasionally eat eggs and lettuce before going to a friend's place when I was a teenager
I like how Nile's first reaction to reading that this chemical is hellish and has the worst smell in the world is to try and make it
And then act like it’s nothing much when he first made it.
@@CausingChaos. I was scared he was gonna try to drink it
100% will be responsible for the future zombie outbreak
This isn't true. His first reaction was to buy it.
@@adamkares7549 and you can smell if a horde is within 500km
Any life in the area around the island he has exposed the chemicals to: Henry what the hell is that smell?
Henry the bird: *Unconcious*
Brasileiro aqui, muito obrigado por ter traduzido seus vídeos! Seu canal é demais
Agradecemos!

"I rented an entire island" is going to be a god tier Out Of Context soundbite for the next wave of NileRed parody videos
Also “So I asked my friend behind the camera for one final sacrifice”
NikeGreen doesn't use soundbites, he uses an AI voice generator, he can make Nigel say quite literally anything he wants🤣.
@@TheExplosiveGuy NileGreen isn't the only parody channel
@@RubyRoks he's the only one that matters😉.
@@TheExplosiveGuy Not really, but okay
He made the smelliest chemical Known to Man, and only smelt 'Something'.
This means things.
Pure acetic acid probably
I was thinking the same. Maybe he smelled too much hydrogen sulfide ?
@@psirvent8 uh oh
Wouldnt that fk up his taste too? Damn
@@psirvent8 That's temporary
I am a chemist, and I am so glad we have people as crazy as Nigel so I don't have to do any of this 😅
Bro rented an ISLAND for this. He's like, the Coyote of the chemistry world LOL
Oh my words... I can't stop watching.... time to binge the channel!!! ☆ 😁😁
