@@Ruktiet What? That's literally an accurate explanation (that the receipt paper gets marked because of heat not pressure). In what way is it not an explanation "at all"??
@@turntsnaco824 because he didn’t mention that heat causes the marking. There is no chain of causality in this explanation because he missed to explain the last, essential link. For people who don’t know that heat is involved, it remains completely unclear why rubbing a receipt causes black marks. Also, you used the word “literally” in a completely erroneous way. You used it to put some sort of force behind your writing by completely misusing it.
@@Ruktiet Most people know that friction causes heat. If you've ever used a rubber eraser, you would know this fact. There might be people who have never used an eraser but they may know other things like starting a fire or the smell of burning rubber tires, both of which involve friction.
I worked in retail way to long to fall for this one 👍 I can’t even imagine how much more angry retail customers would be if they crumpled the receipt up to throw at you to return their item only to realize they blanked it out themselves lol
Actually, some special receipts are pressure sensitive. I've been at a store once (I think Aldi) where the receipts are much more dark to begin with and you can draw blck lines on them with your fingernail
@@thecomedypilot5894 placing the thumb on the other side of the straw implies that the person is about to stab something like it's the potato, how can you possibly not understand the joke?
The receipt one is actually kinda correct. Old receipt used to be like that and the printer we use for an old computer in the army also still uses that paper. Means you can draw on your printout with your nail
working in retail for 5 years i could easily tell you that the receipt tape was heat sensitive. the reason you can "draw" on them with your nails is because the friction causes heat and THAT is what allows you to draw on them in that fashion.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 bc the car traps the heat in a bigger area it's more focused out then putting it on one area like a blow dryer could be room temp yet it's hotter then room temp you get it
2 AND 1 are BOTH fake. Here’s why: Pressing your thumb on the end of the straw applies pressure around the whole circumference of the straw to increase it’s strength, not to increase the internal air pressure. Also, wrapping your fingers around it like that will also increase its tensile strength. He also penetrates the potato faster with his thumb over it, no chance of it going through if you hit it so slowly. Air pressure doesn’t build by just putting a lid (your thumb) on the end, and even if the the pressure did increase at all, then it would push against the straw going into the potato, buckling it. So the ‘air pressure’ theory that has somehow got around is just a myth. Pass it on 😉 Also: scraping a receipt DOES leave marks, you’re essentially disturbing the coating of the paper such as the dye and chemical matrix.
@@taweasmr air pressure would increase when approaching a second object. However it has to be right next to the potato by the end of the swing for the air pressure to rise. I cant explain this well so im just going to compare it to having a room with windows. If the window is open and you close the door, said door will slam because of the exit allowing for air pressure to remain the same. However, if you close that window and try to slam the door, in the past second it will slow rapidly because it doesnt have the ability to push the air it has into the pressurized room.
The funny thing is the receipt paper at my store was pressure sensitive not to the extent in the video but scratching the receipt paper with anything would leave a mark.
The amount of times we've had to sign receipts for other colleagues and a pen not working so we just try and get some kind of mark on there..... Taught me well I'd say 😂😂 definitely can't scratch a mark on those darned things or my job would be easier.
Its 2. Reciepts are made of paper that needs to be heated up in order for black stuff to appear. So its 2. The 3rd one is true, the flame dorsnt cast a shadow cuz its the light source.
But i remember scratching a receipt that i got when my family ordered tacos at this place and it would become black or grey when i scratched it but also when i got receipt from other places that didnt happen
It’s weird because I always heard it was done by a “serial killer” and the clothes are from the victims and the hill bush place was where they were all buried…omg as I’m typing this you were saying the same thing!! But I never heard the one about the wife…it’s so interesting to hear about what stories come about
Alcohol will turn thermal receipt paper black. There is another kind of receipt paper, but its older. Its the duplicate style (canary color on back) that uses a dot matrix printer and the impact breaks the hidden ink. Also known as carbonless paper.
For anyone who doesnt know- receipt paper has an INSANE amount of BPA. Like 200x the *dangerous* level. You handle it daily. Your tupperware isnt the worst plastic plasticizer bad guy
Well you’re technically right but that’s cause more pressure equals more friction during fast movements. That’s why when you rub your nail across a receipt the harder you press down the darker the line will be
Right? I work retail and almost believed it knowing they're heat sensitive and smacking something repeatedly generates heat but when he revealed it, it was game over.
You can write on receipts like that. But they wont turn completely black from stomping on them 🤣I first noticed this at a McDonalds where the cashier circled my number on the receipt with her fingernail, and I was like, "WHAT KIND OF SORCERY...??"
I had the same experience at work when the cashiers needed to mark the receipt to indicate a promotion had been used and my jaw literally dropped. Couldn't believe I didn't know that could be done for so many years of my life 🤣
@@PHANTOM-kt3cd yeah because it's heat sensitive not pressure sensitive. So that makes sense but pressure sensitive would make it turn black every time it creased
That third one is so logical, and yet feels so wrong... Like, yeah, of course the flame will not have a shadow! It's a light source itself! And yet, when you see it, it feels so, wrong...

@@jeremysmith9694Hes right though. I used to sit when I was bored at an old job and doodle on the receipt paper with my fingernail. Some receipt paper is just pressure.
Finally, someone else knows that they ARE pressure sensitive, but what you don’t know is that pretty much every single piece of receipt paper out there is going to be pressure sensitive as well. But why do I know? I’ve only worked retail for many many tiring years.
Except for fire. A flame will give off a lot of air and soot which results in the flame having a shadow when a stronger source of light than the fire itself is shined on it, A phones flashlight is barely not strong enough to cause this effect
@@excision3409 The flame isn’t the thing with the shadow, it’s the smoke around it from the burnt up particles. The flame itself will never create a shadow!
I get it but I wanted to say, if you heated up any paper would it turn black (because it's burning) I mean the high concentration of heat over a flame, paper will obviously burn the paper if held long enough over the flame, but say I have it just far enough away that the paper burns without actually catching fire would it turn black. Idk I'm not like an expert in this type of stuff. Also this has nothing to do with the video but is like a legitimate question. Can any piece of paper turn black? *under certain conditions* (without the use of writing utensils)
@@kennethmalloy3437 thermal paper is just different from normal paper. Like if you tried to laminate thermal paper it would just come out completely black. Its extremely sensitive to heat.
Me. Chicken patties. The precooked breaded ones. I microwave them, then pop them in the toaster to make them crispy. I'm eating mine, nice and crispy, before the average person's oven is even preheated for theirs, or their oil gets hot enough to deep fry.
@@zoppletee5400 I wasn't being sarcastic. I had plenty of stupid accidents as a child. Such accidents are usually hilarious (apart from fatal ones of course). Children are geniuses at using the most inappropriate tool for a task and I was wondering what you'd been trying to do.
@@zacmumblethunder7466 oh, I thought it was a sarcastic grammar shot, which wouldn't have been wrong. I remember one time pressing a straw against my arm repeatedly and fast because I found the bending funny, I guess. (Kids find anything funny.) Accidentally put my thumb over the end and the straw didn't bend on contact and I remember a prickly pain. I was a relatively boring child
Paper is not pressure sensitive . Its temp sensitive. But hitting or scratching it will make temp increase and show on it. You can actually cook meat if you slap it the same way. It just takes quite a few hours and slaps to reach some sensible temp. If two objects collide, energy is released as heat.
Thermal paper is in fact able to get marked up by pressure, but that was done with an iron or hair straightener to get that look. Source: worked at a place that had thermal paper and learned all the dumb things about it out of curiosity
I had the thought “doesn’t pressure like that cause heat as well or am I confusing that with a different thing?” I found out by accident when I tried to return something…apparently I can no longer keep my receipts laying on top of the fridge. Lol I got my return with an explanation turned into a self deprecating joke but lesson learned. Heat sensitive.
Receipts are absolutely color changing with pressure, maybe not to that extent but that is the old school way of using your credit card. Receipts would print with a blank space for the cashier to place on top of the credit card and then you'd rub a pen or pencil over it sideways creating a relief of the raised numbers on the credit card, on the receipt. Maybe its just specific reciept paper that Target stores use though.
@@_LizardKing_ Yes, that's what I'm saying. When you scratch the receipt, it makes a line of a colour similar to graphite, rather than the full black colour shown in the video.
@@_LizardKing_ the object which he was stepping on didn't seem as flat as uniform the black area of the receipt was either. It would have had darker and lighter lines if it was correct.
I knew the second was wrong because I used to be a cashier. I used to use my nails to draw lines on them. And I keep relevant ones in my wallet. They would’ve turned black by now if it were pressure lol
And for good reason, thermal printers are cheap, compact, and repairs are easy, the only downside is the paper as it requires chemical treatment which in turn, jacks up the price.
I could be wrong, but I swore that some are pressure sensitive like this. Like they get smacked by the machine and it causes a chemical reaction that darkens it. I’m still finding it hard to believe that you can put a straw through a potato.
@@heelercs the printer head inside thermal printer heats up and strikes the paper, it may seem as the pressure is what does it but really it's the heated head.
Won’t work, cause the potato seals the other end of the straw causing it to become stronger. But that won’t happen on a fountain soda. Never tested just my guess.
@@HaroTulu When you stab a potato with a straw, the straw pushes into your thumb and makes a large circle in place where the hole of the straw originally was.
@@HaroTulu have you ever pressed a cylindrical object hard enough to leave a heavy indentation or puncture skin deep enough to draw blood? This is what FREDDY is referring to.
I remember when I found out about the potato thing. It was a science fair for school. There was a stand where a boy was challenging people to poke a hole into the potato with a straw. If they failed he would reveal the trick. I went up and tried, and I stabbed it without putting my thumb over the top. I thought I was some kind of genius, but it turns out I accidentally poked it exactly on top of another hole he made earlier. Thanks for the likes! It was definitely an Arthur sword in the stone moment for me, even if it was short-lived 😂
The straw thing I know from experience, the candle is common sense to me, so this one was easy for me. I also knew previously about the temperature part.

@@zacmumblethunder7466 okay Mr Sarcastic, the world I should have said was "braced."
@@zoppletee5400 I wasn't being sarcastic. I had plenty of stupid accidents as a child. Such accidents are usually hilarious (apart from fatal ones of course).
Children are geniuses at using the most inappropriate tool for a task and I was wondering what you'd been trying to do.
@@zacmumblethunder7466 oh, I thought it was a sarcastic grammar shot, which wouldn't have been wrong.
I remember one time pressing a straw against my arm repeatedly and fast because I found the bending funny, I guess. (Kids find anything funny.) Accidentally put my thumb over the end and the straw didn't bend on contact and I remember a prickly pain. I was a relatively boring child
Paper is not pressure sensitive . Its temp sensitive. But hitting or scratching it will make temp increase and show on it. You can actually cook meat if you slap it the same way. It just takes quite a few hours and slaps to reach some sensible temp. If two objects collide, energy is released as heat.
Receipt printers are thermal paper not pressure. You can work on them somewhat by scratching simply because you are generating heat with friction.
I saw the second one and went “that’s absolute bs”
Same
It's not though
NO NO NO ITS TRUE THO
It is true. I always do it with receipts
3 of these comments must be joking but if they're not...i will just ignore
I've always played with receipts and scribble on them, so that's how I knew it was fake lmao
Same lol
I was confused because I thought the repeated smacks from the wood would heat up the receipt
Its a common misconception that flames have no shadows they actauly have very fant shadows
The thing that gave away the paper trick is that a piece of wood stepped on will never give you such a flawless black square
"Stepped on"? My dude, he was slamming a shoe on it, not stepping on it. Like, literally had the shoe in his hand and was hitting it.. Repeatedly.
@@angelousmortis8041 still, trust me i slam on wood enough to know that planks will at least print their wood grain, and not a nice flat square
@@jeanladoire4141 Lol, I just wanted to point out that, that was a bit more than 'stepping on'.
@@jeanladoire4141 That said, I'd imagine that it would depend on how well sealed/treated the wood in question is, to be honest.
@@angelousmortis8041 nah there's no way, wood is too soft and irregular to print like that
2, that receipt is burnt with a hair dryer, also I just know.
No you don't know
u dont know, ive seen ppl at kfc do this countless times w their finger nails
@@esthetiqueBae I do that all the time to play tic tac toe😂
Thermal paper is in fact able to get marked up by pressure, but that was done with an iron or hair straightener to get that look. Source: worked at a place that had thermal paper and learned all the dumb things about it out of curiosity
no you don't I know the trick too but no one knew till people did it
I love having brain damage because I can hear a story several times before I've really HEARD it and it gets old for me, you know?
that noise in the second-
Having worked in a grocery store and knowing that the printers are called "thermal printers", I definitely had an edge here.
I had the thought “doesn’t pressure like that cause heat as well or am I confusing that with a different thing?”
I found out by accident when I tried to return something…apparently I can no longer keep my receipts laying on top of the fridge. Lol I got my return with an explanation turned into a self deprecating joke but lesson learned. Heat sensitive.
You can literally see the cut in the video 😂
As a person who loves to burn everything I also had a advantage here
@@thedonutseye8359same here
@@theredraider3860the pressure of 2 things colliding creates heat thats why it reacts with the receipt

I mean, it looked like he drew on the receipt with a sharpie.
Ye
Pretty sure he used heat, but yeah
At the end he showed he used a hair straightener iron to black out the receipt
I was Abt to say the fire
Not sharpie, thermal paper responds to heat primarily but friction caused by applying pressure can cause colour change.
Receipts are absolutely color changing with pressure, maybe not to that extent but that is the old school way of using your credit card. Receipts would print with a blank space for the cashier to place on top of the credit card and then you'd rub a pen or pencil over it sideways creating a relief of the raised numbers on the credit card, on the receipt. Maybe its just specific reciept paper that Target stores use though.
Receipt printers are thermal printers, so they don't need ink.
Dude held a grudge against that receipt
Cause it’s bla-? (btw one month without a comment along with 333 likes wow)
Great comment?
@@VabieTha-ds6vlCause it's black?
Why no one is talking about how that straw become a weapon.
They're phasing out plastic straws, so if we've got any potatoes that need stabbing, we'd better do it now.
Haha lol true
I've already upped the arms race with my stainless steel straws.
I just drink my potato without a straw
So what your saying is a straw works like a knife
Mans got something personal with that receipt
Since pressure and temperature have a direct relationship, they're actually all true
John wick - kill with pencil
2024 - kills with thin plastic straw
THE TURTLES!!
@@matthewboyd8689 NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
If the straw was strong enough to actually puncture human tissue, it would be deadlier than a pencil because it could speed up blood loss.
@@inventiveowl395 really?!
@@JustAnalila.. oh don't mind me. Just voicing out shower thoughts
The receipt one was obvious. It would've been more convincing if it turned a more graphite colour like it does normally when you strike it
But you can actually scratch it to make a line
@@_LizardKing_ Yes, that's what I'm saying. When you scratch the receipt, it makes a line of a colour similar to graphite, rather than the full black colour shown in the video.
@@_LizardKing_ the object which he was stepping on didn't seem as flat as uniform the black area of the receipt was either. It would have had darker and lighter lines if it was correct.
Ye that’s why it looked so fake
theres also the jumpcut that i immediately noticed
Nice thumb-around with the straw
I knew the second was wrong because I used to be a cashier. I used to use my nails to draw lines on them. And I keep relevant ones in my wallet. They would’ve turned black by now if it were pressure lol
#2 most receipts are heat sensitive
And for good reason, thermal printers are cheap, compact, and repairs are easy, the only downside is the paper as it requires chemical treatment which in turn, jacks up the price.
Yh
Yh
I could be wrong, but I swore that some are pressure sensitive like this. Like they get smacked by the machine and it causes a chemical reaction that darkens it.
I’m still finding it hard to believe that you can put a straw through a potato.
@@heelercs the printer head inside thermal printer heats up and strikes the paper, it may seem as the pressure is what does it but really it's the heated head.
Now I know how to get my straw through the fountain drink lids!

@@bandaidcheerios2309 spelling bee runner-up
Auto correct
@@adriantomo5688 spelling bee: B-E-E
Won’t work, cause the potato seals the other end of the straw causing it to become stronger. But that won’t happen on a fountain soda. Never tested just my guess.
You can gain hints easily this way. The one that he fully explains and elaborates on is a truth.
"And then an extra bonus hole on your finger yayy!"
What?
@@HaroTulu When you stab a potato with a straw, the straw pushes into your thumb and makes a large circle in place where the hole of the straw originally was.
Yyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy A hole on anyone's finger if they do it yyyyaaaaayyyy
@@HaroTulu have you ever pressed a cylindrical object hard enough to leave a heavy indentation or puncture skin deep enough to draw blood?
This is what FREDDY is referring to.
This isn't mentioned enough
The 2nd was so weird, i knew something was off, for the others, the explanation was clear and simple
It's not that weird. There is carbon paper which works the way he's describing. That's not how receipts work, but it does exist
@@SirPhysics well, if it doesnt apply for receipts, then its odd to see such.. sight, right? If you know what i mean
@@BALLIST1C it’s actually true, receipts will do that
@@TheBobaBunny1 what??? He just said that its fake, wdym lol
@@BALLIST1C The receipt one isn't really that weird. You only thought it was weird because you thought it was ink.
So there's not a shadow behind the flame...
Got it I knew because I do way too much shorts. Thanks man
I actually guessed the receipt was wrong as soon as he said with pressure
Same, the idea that pressure can change the colour of paper is ridiculous
"heat" receipt paper.
@@robosnipercat6960 clearly you e never used blueprints
There’s a trend last year I think where people take iron to the hear u would get blacked from melting
I meant the amount of pressure used causing that much colour change :P
I remember when I found out about the potato thing. It was a science fair for school. There was a stand where a boy was challenging people to poke a hole into the potato with a straw. If they failed he would reveal the trick. I went up and tried, and I stabbed it without putting my thumb over the top. I thought I was some kind of genius, but it turns out I accidentally poked it exactly on top of another hole he made earlier.
Thanks for the likes! It was definitely an Arthur sword in the stone moment for me, even if it was short-lived 😂
That's hilarious
"I'm a genius?!"
"No, you just have the luck of the devil!"
"Even better!"
I don't believe that. You obviously have super-human strength!
The straw thing I know from experience, the candle is common sense to me, so this one was easy for me. I also knew previously about the temperature part.
the only reason i thought the 2nd was wrong is because i play with straws and i saw it in a vsauce short
