education how to make acid
#tkor #thekingofrandom
Your Brother should join TKOR and continue your legacy...
That’s what Nate and Callie are doing
xXx_MlgTr1kSh00ter _Xx I dont think he can read this
Black Hawk no i mean Grant’s Biological Brother, the guy in this video...
xXx_MlgTr1kSh00ter _Xx yes I know! But Nate and Callie are continuing it they have been for months
@@blackhawk2788 it would be great if Grant's brother joins the tkor team
Rip thanks for showing me how to make cool stuff
Icewallowcomeatnight Jkn tf?
yea rip to the King

Surprised you didn't have safety glasses on sooner like your brother. That splashing can get you. A hacksaw does the best job. It cuts through the entire plastic housing cleanly, as well as any lead bars.
Dead car batteries actually only have PbSO4 in solution and really small amount of acid am I correct?
@@arty7122 no ...lol
Well, the acid wasnt what got him
I had battery acid splash in my eye. It burned so bad, my immediate 1st thought was, "I just lost my freaking eye!" Highly recommended if you enjoy excruciating pain.
Hope you are having as much fun as we had watching you,Rest In Peace. From everyone

I was a burn therapist at the Institute for Surgical Research, Burn Center and Extremity Trauma Center at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio Texas for years.
You cannot imagine the different ways people got themselves burned. I treated patients who made their own homemade canons, which subsequently exploded. Decided to take a radiator cap off while the engine was still hot (common). Tried to rescue a kite from power lines using a metal pole. Looked into a gas tank with a butane lighter' to see if it was empty. And every type of industrial accident you can imagine.
None of them ever thought they were going to get hurt, because they believed that it was never going to be them. I appreciate your attempt at educating people, but in the future I wish you would take better safety precautions, especially when working with sulfuric acid and the subsequent sulfuric gas.
Good luck in the future on not getting injured, I really really mean that.👍
did someone get burns from an AMD CPU?
Did the sulfuric acid fumes they were breathing for a brief moment damage their lungs in any way or was it negligible?
Murica
How people don't figure to use a rag to take the rad cap off while an engine is hot is beyond me.
Пётр Новосёлов lmao
what I learned today: Panasonic makes car batteries?
Panasonic makes a ton of stuff. Panasonic is an absolutely enormous company.
They make the best batteries
Panasonic is the major battery producer
I have the original OEM Panasonic battery in my 2007 FJ Cruiser. Unfortunately, they cannot be purchased in the US so when it starts to degrade, I will try desulfating it versus buying a domestically produced battery.
Especially for Tesla
RIP thanks for the awesome memories ♥️
"I just got a new car, and what better way to celebrate then to rip the battery out, crack it open, and see whats inside."
Only you would say that grant.
Well , *All Signs pointed to the What's inside*
+JustHaveFun Gaming how did you use a couple of asterisks and have it not bold text
oh...
The * is not attached to the "all"
I'll Fix that
I love how he's doing all of this inside his house
Ikr! He even put it in his sink 😂!
Yes of all the things to do outside I would say this is one of them. The fumes from Sulfuric acid can irritate the nose and throat and cause difficulties breathing if inhaled.
+MidNight Gaming and where is your basement located may I ask?
+MidNight Gaming you where dropped as a child I'm guessing
25% H2SO4 Make very little to no fumes. And its COMPLETLY SAFE to do this at home!!
6 years later and still helpful as always, truly The King
2:45 pours out battery acid without eye protection. Does not value eyesight.
I bet he regrets what he did ...
this erked me so much. PLEASE USE EYE PROTECTION WHEN HANDLING WITH ACID/ CAR BATTERIES
Also, I though sulfuric acid can’t be poured in glass because it will make hexafluorosilicic acid. Instead it should be stored in carbon steel containers.
@@ic9459 most acids can be stored in glass, but HDPE is a better solution for hydrochloric acid.
@@exogator I remember that in my wood shop class we had the choice to create HDPE into pens🖊
"I should wear some safety-glasses", puts on his sunglasses
Actually, there's safety glasses that have tint, so they do look like sunglasses.
I agree!
ichi _ haha yeah that would be me
5:02 You should've done this outside since you're releasing a ton of lead oxide/sulfate mist.
His workshop is in a separate garage and he probably has the door open.
+
Where tf did you see kids?
You can hear them
There's a bit of a difference between "well ventilated" for a workshop and the kind of ventilation you need when dealing with these sorts of materials. There's a reason why chemistry labs have contained spaces with powerful ventilation hoods.
As a chemist this was extremely stressful to watch... I'm surprised with how sloppy and careless they were with such hazardous chemicals?! Especially scary to think about the others that could be following this experiment and seriously injur themselves by not using proper PPE
When
cope
Ok Walter white
i open the car batteries. i drink the chemicals
Nerd
thank you random guy. awsome video. i tried the same experiment but with different results.
1. moms car won't start.
2. the cat is bald.
3.my brother burned his third nipple.
4. i ruined my new flip flops.
5. I'm grounded....
and not allowed on yalltube anymore....
P.s. moma said you probly ate paint chips when you was a kid.

Ur a legend that cracked me up so much (my cat is bold XD)
Buys new car - Breaks the Battery^^
Why?!?!? like WHAT WHYYYYYY
techrax?
More like buy new car/new car to him (aka used car) that probably needed a new battery anyway, or he wanted to upgrade the battery.
+TheOtherWhiteBread0 that's extremely doubtful 😂
#WHITERICH
make this video public, it was really good
yup
THIS IS PUBLIC NOW
? it was privet?
+Ibrahim Mahmood no it was on patreon
Yeah please!
"Because this is sulfuric acid, you want to put it in a glass container"
I am ded yes
@@IMightBeIris bit late, but most plastic is immune to most acid. I've got 98 percent sulfuric and 35(ish) percent hydrochloric and 68 percent nitric, 100 percent oxalic and 100 percent formic acid all in plastic containers.
The only iffy one there is the nitric acid.
The sulfuric acid will eat through the plastic container, but not in your lifetime. At room temperature the reaction is incredibly slow. At 200C (i.e. above the melting point of the plastic anyway) the long chain hydrocarbons get broken down into shorter ones and eventually into carbon tar.
Some very few plastics are vulnerable to sulfuric acid, mostly ones with OH groups like cellulose or PLA.
Lol
Thank you so much ❤️ you helped me in my studies as i was doing Batteries topic in electrochemistry by watching you video of secondary Batteries that is storage battery it makes me easy to understand thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ RIP
Stfu
I like unlisted videos, it makes me feel special :D
same
lol
lol same ar
you are special
+Dral Marev can't argue with that logic

lmfao
Guy:Hey what ya doin.
Another Guy:Just opening a spiluble battery with SULFIRIC ACID
Thank you for helping all the "young unns" figure out how to do acid attacks.
You can do acid attacks with literally anything, you can buy acid as well.
*Pours out acid* *Doesn't wear eye protection*
And?
You think sulfuric acid is something to put into your eye?
No, but its only 30% if you pour it right, it wont splash to your eye
It did splash though and you never know when a single drop might hit your eyes.
I literally had this happen two days ago. Pouring sulfuric acid to clean granite and a drop jumped up and hit my eyeball. Fortunately I was fine but it was extremely painful!
2:03 the dude eyes lol
lol
OHHHHHHHHHH mah goawd hahahhahahahhaha
My doctor looks like that too when he puts his gloves on.

Make this public it's a good video
xD I don't get people like you
+Secowe Gaming why not?
And now it is :-)
it is public?
public hahahahaha no its private. hahahahaha
Finally, a channel that does dangerous things and know what they're getting into and take necessary safety precautions. Thank you for not being morons and taking safety into account.
Sorry, full face shields and long sleeve shirts at a minimum, should have been used for the making of this video.
+javaking1000 better than the idiots who play with them for views. These guys knew what they were doing and getting them selves into at least.
+Food Critic James Are you sarcastic? Cause if not, you are not the most Intelligent person I've seen.
Really? Grant has no safety glasses on when they are pouting the acid. Acid is splashing on his brother's arms. They should be wearing full face protection. They should be wearing - at the very least - arm protection. They should be doing it outdoors or - at least - in a more open area.
Tell us again how delightfully safe they are being. Please; do go on!
+Wood 'n' Stuff w/ Steve French
You feel for some delicious b8 my friend ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
he taught us how to do things the right way.
tip: drill a hole in the battery to drain it.
tip2: keep your freaking glasses on!! I have seen horrible burns from that stuff. as well as battery explosions. once you see one of explode -- respect becomes the new word of the day.
good luck fellas...
Bare arms and no face shields? You two are just warming up for the Darwin Awards.
The acid isn't that bad. The lead maybe, but the acid just tingles.
Leads really more deadly if ingested or over long period of contact to the skins (like wearing it as make-up or hats). Ow ya and the acid actually isnt that bad long as you start washing it off within the first minute
hopefully they put safety measures on the kid u hear let out a gaa after they take the 6 ports off the top
hopefully they put safety measures on the kid u hear let out a gaa after they take the 6 ports off the top
The worst that sulphuric acid will do is cause minor irritation if they get it off of their bare skin same with their eyes
I feel so acomplished for being able to watch this before it was public :D
Me too =)
It is public.. I think
+Ramen Noodles It is.
Same
+Ramen Noodles he was talking about before cause he put a link in the comments and if you clicked on it it takes you to this video
R.I.P it’s been fun brother sad to see you go
Those Panasonic car batteries are (or at least used to be) awesome. My old Mazda came with one from the factory. That battery lasted 12 years before it had to be replaced. Didn't show any symptoms of weakness either. Just one morning everything was dead.
*It was a really nice video :)*
:)
lol wazup
+Austin BeCraft wazup
How did you do that?
+The Black Johny Cat You add asterisks that look like this * around your text so it looks like this in the end. *Asterisks are awesome!*
If sulfuric acid gets on your clothes, it will eat holes in them. Not bleach them.
+mooe1965 that's the best you could come up with? guess you better hide in your safe place before some offends your feelings with words.
Not if there is polyester in the clothing.
If you get sulfuric acid alone, make crystal meth.
its diluted sulfuric acid.. 70% water.
02:39 - no arm protection, no eye protection... and just few seconds before I heard child in background. Really great stuff guys, really ...
No one :
King of random:buys new car “what’s better then hacking it removing its engine
Cool! The lead is soft and spongy for maximum surface area. Id like to see you take apart a deep cycle battery and look at the comparison between the plates. Also the pool store near me sells very pure 30% sulfuric acid by the gallon, have you seen it in stores near you? Maybe its just Florida thing, but it might be worth letting people know instead of dealing with yucky lead filled acid!
Hi
Your bro looks like a more husky version of you
Oh it is heavy.. Bro grabs battery and gives a dirty look.. no it is not.
who?
Who....?
Is that you Tupac!?
Who?
Definitely need LOTS more videos with Mark in them, WOOF! ;-)
Forget about watching how things are made, there is something very satisfying about watching hi take things apart.
I like how you used " it was in my car battery" that made me laugh
You are the best btw i always watch your vids
I need to see the rest of this!!!!
I'll be waiting for it
Same :D
how much lead are you able to get from those plates? mine give 1/2 an oz and I end up with a pile of what looks to be sulfur chunks mixed with other chemicals. the posts and ground bars gave me 2 pounds or so.
i kept on thinking i had two tabs open at the same time, your music !! REALLy !!
The acid honestly would've been pretty refreshing on a hot summers day
yeah mate
Absolutely
i drink bleach not acid
Your profile pic is when the acid finally kicks in lmao
Tay Keith Fanpage n
In germany you need to pay additional 7,50€ if you buy a new car battery but don't give the old back, so peopole wont throw them away.
Same in America, but here at auto zone they give you $50 off a new battery for the old one.
They probably have a deal for reselling the lead and acid.
Sounds also nice :D
same here we pay a core price or get discounts to take the old ones back
Ja ist echt so in Amerika kriegt man aber viel mehr Geld zurück
I feel like it's not the first time he said"should be ready to pull out"😂
I thought a car battery had a million AA batteries, a gameboy, and a red horse
How many batteries would it take to melt a body. I'm asking for a friend. >_>
you need to watch his next video on concentrating the acid.
jacob mitchell
If you mean in electricity melt about 64 mega joules
Are you asking for the friend your melting?
Stretch Reality _>
I feel like a secret agent when watching a "secret video." Grant you should put annotations in your public videos that flashes by really quickly and have it take people to a secret video. It'd be a fun little challenge for your subscribers.
xD same bro
except mobile wouldn't be able to participate
Yea
+Alexander Kusik on some videos annotations can be clicked on even on mobile. Most notably ign
+Xpyto Its a beta feature only for huge channels
Love ya man, RIP brother
Looking for a bit of advice/help. I have scrapped two batteries and ended up with about 6 pounds of clean lead. Where is the rest? I just can't find it. Have melted entire content and ended up with a coffee can full of not lead. Please, any advice.
Playing with sulfuric acid.... Not A Good Idea (:-/
especially with exposed skin...
keep it out of your eyes and you're fine, takes a long time to burn you skin and you'll feel it itch. Just rinse it off. Not a big deal.
screwyluie it's just bad safety procedure in general not to mention an older battery might have a higher concentrated acid mixture in it due to evaporated water. Better to be safe doing this stuff than get hurt because you didn't take precautions.
go watch nile red it took over 30 seconds with highly concentrated sulfuric acid.
It's okay, he's a professional shenaniganist
Title made me think there was a live creature in his battery xD
Me too lol
me too 😂
"IT" lol
clickbait
*pictures a frog just chilling in sulfuric acid and lead like its no big deal*
the look on his brother face at the end had me weak lol he looking like really? this what you do with your free time? lmaO
Got to change the music. It sounds like music you would play during credits. Feels like the video is about to end at any second
Where is your eye protection while splashing and pouring black t-shirt guy?
bad scientists
They aren't scientists. Get over it. He's fine.
+Brendan Stanford (Peteledete) "they aren't professionals, so protection doesn't matter." Lmao okay
Caresser You're seriously going to go to a video that tries to help people and critique it for your own pleasure? Just so you appear superior because you paid some attention in like 9th grade Biology? Must make you feel big.
Caresser You're the one coming in here trying to patronize me with elementary level science
"put a wooden spoon over it" lmao
You said something about "absorbent glass" at the beginning. Any chance you could make a video explain what this means, showing us some of this absorbent glass from a car battery, and maybe doing some experiments with it?
I love how his brother had gloves on and they were shredded from the beginning
The safety protocols in this video are scary. I'm seriously surprised neither of you were seriously injured.
Also, you should've been wearing respirators to prevent any type of damage to your lungs.
hi i have a baterry with a small hole on the bottom of one of the cell and it drain all the fluid, i wish to know if is possible to seal this hole? thanks a lot. sorry for my english
RIP GRAND THOMPSON LETS YOU LIVE A HEAVENLY LIFE
Make lead cups. The Romans used them... I think...
Lead plates*
Romans didn't use them.
Fuedals did. About 100 years after the Romans demise. I'm sure there were lease plates in Roman times though, not much, but it was there.
Blue Behemoth Hm ok... If it wasn't lead cups than it must have been lead plumbing the Romans used. Read something about this ages ago so its pretty vague
really? theyre idiots
+simontay1984 I think the people of Somerset may disagree with where you state the location of the city of Bath.
+william bui I don't think they knew it was toxic.
When I was little I use to eat lead paint chips off the walls and it made me feel funny
um, you might want to get tested. getting high off of lead or paint can cause serious brain damage.
+Joshua Tice I still do it. I did it the other day but I can't remember anything before that lol yolo
lel
I love how everyone on UA-cam has advice for how everyone publishing anything on UA-cam could do it better.
I love the video... but I can’t handle the way you said “shredded”. Shrayyydid. 😂😂😂
You guys are having so much fun ...now show us what's inside you heads?
Is anyone getting alot of recommendations to watch these vids
Ulises yes
Tons
I actually looked it up lol
Sulphuric*
Protip - next time you need to get the clips out to take off your decorative panels just push them down if they are the oem ones. They all push down then you can lift the whole panel at once. To reset them just push them into a hard surface and they will pop open.
Not once have I ever thought "What's in a car battery?" But this was still a pretty interesting video. Made for a neat way of killing about 7 minutes
I like how he gives safety tips like someone was insane enough to try this at home.
It’s really not a big deal have you never worked on a car 💀💀💀
5:00 frying lead plates!
What better way to celebrate by new car than making it completely unusable. I freaking loved this guy no homo . The dude made it so that he had to get a whole new battery for his car for the love of science. May his soul rest in peace
When he said "that's 70% of water right there." I was like " wow that's the whole world right there!"
Probly should have used a fume hood.
WHY?
Dont be stupid.
TheGuerrCZ Well ik that now...
No need. The sulfuric acid is not very concentrated, and the only reaction occurring significantly enough to possible harm you is the acid-base, but it won't because the only gas produced is CO2.
It actually is necessary to wear protection because acid emits vapours. I sell this stuff and I use this stuff. It's part of my training to know how to safely use it.
Three things,
1. pouring out the contents shouldn't be done in the way you did it, you should have tackled one cell at a time, that is the safest way.
2. you should have poured the neutralizing solution into the cells until the reaction ceased before you tried hacking the case open.
3. once neutralized and safe, you could drain the battery of the solution and then use a cutting tool like a hand drill (Dremel type) and cut the top off to extract the lead plates.
If you neutralize the solution then how do you harvest the sulfuric acid?
antiswattt3 To clarify... 1. Undo one cell at a time and then pour out contents.
2. Pour in neutralizing solution in to cell to ensure it is neutralized when empty, as in all cells have been emptied.
3. then you can safely open and take apart the battery without fear of shorting out plates.
antiswattt3 Not childish, just wise.
They could have also charged the cell to ensure that any displaced lead was returned to the plate
King of Random: the king of being told "don't do this at home" and doing it anyways circa 2000-something.
It's nice to have a brother like that :D
When will this video be released?
it's a secret

Today
Herman Plank shh
sneaky Grant is sneaky XD
"could spit acid on your face"
*Puts on glasses*
Once you mentioned wet cell batteries I instantly got flashbacks of physical science class.
When he put the players on the terminal you can hear a zap
What is so special in this vid, ppl? You had to learn all of this at school many years ago...
It's the small things
learning vs doing
school is theory. this is practise. practise > theory :P think about it...
They sure didnt teach us anything about car batteries or any other kind at my schools and i went to a few different ones because we moved alot, maybe you shouldnt assume everyone knows what you do, just like i dont assume you know everything i do, Its "special" because they show you something that most people wouldnt feel safe enough to do themself, For example i had no idea if it was pressurized or under vacuum which could lead to instant evaporation and dispersion when opened.
"daddy?"- one of their kids at 2:21 lol
Wierd
I love how quick people are to point out unsafe behavior in a lab setting; thanks comment section for always looking out for others!
What do you mean by "lab setting"?

Why did you dopes ruin a perfectly good car battery?
I thought he explained that. FOR SCIENCE!
"Do it for the science!" -No one
And a Panasonic at that, those are good/expensive batt's
he just killed a car battery and got a million views... why NOT ruin a perfectly good battery. ;)
Did you see the cells bud ? Didn't look that good to me.
Crackin' a cold one with the boys
As an auto parts store employee, I don't get tearing apart a perfectly good battery. You can buy acid by the quart at most parts stores. As a veteran mechanic (35 years ) I have never had a battery explode on a vehicle that I was working on, but I have seen others explode .Hydrogen Sulfide is the gas produced by a charging battery, and it WILL explode. The gas you attempted to light was carbon dioxide, the result of most acid + baking soda reactions. Including the vinegar + baking soda that makes so many science fair volcanoes work. Vinegar contains approx. 5% acetic acid.
Nice! I’m actually a student at Universal Technical Institute and currently in the intro to electrical theory, so we’ve been reading and building circuits, as well as testing voltage, various battery types and so on.
A couple things...
1. You really gotta have splash-proof goggles when you're working with sulfuric acid. The consequence in the end being complete blindness.
2. This seems like a waste to do all this work to get maybe %30 by weight sulfuric acid, when you can get at most hardware stores, drain cleaner that is anywhere from 80-98% azeotropic sulfuric acid for like $5.
I guess if you're gonna use the metal bits and stuff, nevermind.
+Don't Even Bother no, I agree. this was a waste and too dangerous for what they got in the end. I'm very surprised this guy went to all that trouble to do this.. I think it was just to make a video for views.
Ryan W There are definitely better ways of getting these materials.
Pouring sulfuric acid from the battery to begin without safety glasses was a dee da dee maneuver.
Lmao! Those gloves look like they are working wonderfully!
Marc is like "I am least least interested!!! why do you even pull me here"
