As an elevator mechanic, I will say that the door close button definitely WORKS if there is one and if it is not broken. If the elevator has a large load capacity, then the time that the algorithm will keep the doors open longer. The button is needed to reduce the wait. There are special operating algorithms where this button is necessary.

Glass just like plastic is recyclable but there is one issue, and that is coloring of the container. Both plastic and glass come in colored containers. Granted sodas are more typically shipped in clear glass making it the best for recycling, there are containers of other colors that must be separated because the colorings won't burn away in the crushing and melting processes. Plastics are even worse which is why recycling plastic is generally like the faux buttons in this video, placebo. Just like glass, plastics have to be separated by color, and that becomes a considerable chore that only increases the cost of recycling. And since the return on the majority of recycling is minimal or nonexistent, it's just not as cost effective to do so anymore. Sad as it is.
We used a mix of Coke and concentrated Kool-Aid in the Navy to remove oxidation and corrosion from brass drains and fixtures. The substance was colloquially referred to as "bug juice" (because green Kool-Aid is thought to be stronger, though we used it because it was vile) and was so acidic, it bubbled away the nasty stuff quickly. This made shining brass a breeze!
I don't know when you were in the Navy.. But, in my experience in the mid 90s there was powered drink and it wasn't kool-aid. We called it bug juice when when mixed and drank it. We did use the powered form to clean pipes and metal. It could also burn skin if left too long on bare hands. At some point after 2000 they got rid of it. I know my ship in 2011 didn't have it.
The plastic layer on the inside of the can is not to protect the can from the beverage, it is to protect the beverage from the can. All canned drinks have a plastic layer on the inside,this is not to avoid them to corroding the can, but to avoid aluminium to change the taste of the beverage, even wine, beer and canned coffee this almost not acidic (if it is good) has it (canned coffee is very popular in Japan). Coca-cola has phosphoric acid the very same ingredient used in rust removers, but not in a quantity that would corrode the metal (it would take years), although it reacts with rust and it is good to clean chromium coated surfaces as oxides are far more reactive with acids. In Coca-cola site there is a list of myths about Coke: they say there are better products to clean rust, but they don't deny it works. I prefer vinegar small things it takes a little time but it works perfectly (that has about 5% of acetic acid much much more acidic than Coke) and...it is cheaper.
Yeah, I am not sure which elevators are ones where the door close button does not do anything, I think this is a big urban myth or those elevators were reprogrammed specifically for that button not to work. The ones in my building, and pretty much every building I have worked in, do close the door quicker than just waiting after a floor button was pushed. Many elevators do not close the doors immediately after pushing a floor button, and I know this might shock people, that is because there might be other people still getting on the elevator after the first person on pushes a floor button. While the doors have a delay, which in my elevator's case is the same after pushing a floor button and not pushing a floor button, the doors close immediately upon pushing the close button. I have yet to be on an elevator where the doors close immediately after a floor button is pushed, or where the doors do not close if a floor button is not pushed.
@@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440Other than old freight elevators, I've never seen an elevator door that doesn't close itself but like the OP said, it takes 10x longer when i wait for the elevator to do it instead of pushing the close door button.

Here in Perth Australia the traffic buttons are almost all real and DO WORK! The sound it makes when its man turns green is a sound that lets blind people know it is safe to cross the road also the small circular button shaped lumps on the ground where the button is indicates to the blind people where to cross a road safely without kerbs tripping them up. Additionally, that sound I already mentioned was sampled by a musician named Billie Eilish for one of her songs.
I heard one of those with a damaged speaker that sounded like a tight fart. Like if someone glued their butt shut, and the air forced itself out through a tiny pinhole sized gap in the cheeks, this real high pitched FRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrttt....
Not only in Australia, same in Germany. In busy roads we also have timed/synchronized traffic lights. When you push the button, you may have to wait for your time slot before the light becomes green. If the button is not pushed, the pedestrian light will stay red in the corresponding time slot, so cars can turn easier (no yellow pedestrian warning light).
I once tested the timing on the "close door" button in the elevator at my local clinic. It turned out, it DOES make the door close faster, but only if you'd selected the floor first. Otherwise, it doesn't make a difference.
@@TheLastMemenator_Of_Existence Wow, that's messed up that people would close the door on someone! I'm not litigious, but if that happened to me, I'd sue them!
@@kentworchYes, that's why I mentioned the location. There aren't many elevators in my town, so I haven't tested it elsewhere (I always forget, when I'm visiting somewhere.)
@@DravenGal It depends on how the elevator is set up, but that button is there for a reason, and there's always a way to make it work. There is also usually a lock cylinder that uses a key that often has 2 or 3 different positions. Not sure how much has changed but the old ones used to stop and run on the key switch. Back in the days before computer modules, everything used to work on relays, limit switches, and floor switches. The floor switches would not only illuminate the light above as you pass each floor, but would also trip the relay corresponding to the button you pressed powering the motor to stop the elevator at the floor you selected. There is a way to bypass the floor switches but it takes more than one button. The door call button actually activated the same relay to send the elevator to that as if you'd pressed that floors button inside the elevator. By holding the door close button and pressing other buttons you could manually operate the elevator and even stop between floors if you need to. This is a function that emergency personnel and elevator mechanical technicians alike use. I'm not sure if that's changed anytime more recently with the computerized controls, but that's how the old ones used to work.

Having been in the bread business for 37 years, I can tell you for a fact that your bread tab info is incorrect. Hasn't been that way for years. Most companies dropped the different color tabs when the pandemic started in 2019 & there was a plastic shortage. That said, they use whatever color they have on hand. The company I work for have one color all days. Best bet is to look on the bag for the date & go back 12-14 days & that will tell you the bake date
If they haven't already, Be Amazed should do an episode on packaging that rips off the customer. Liquid soap in pump bottles is my current annoyance. The way the bottle is designed, 2-3 ounces of the product is regularly left at the bottom of the bottle. And I understand that they make that little convex area on the bottom to help the bottle stand up. But inside, it's wasting product. The only way to get it out is to unscrew the pump top and WAIT for the small amount to descend. Or, add water to it, which makes the product less effective. I'm sure most people throw out those few ounces but, honestly, it's so annoying. Why don't they flatten or even make the bottom (interior only) concave so you get all the product? I'm sure if you thought about it, you'd find many other items that are badly packaged.
I just bought some long, thin spatulas for that reason. I cut off the bottom of my bottle of face lotion and scooped out several ounces of leftover lotion into a small container. I tried it on my toothpaste tube, but when I cut the tube open there was no paste left over.
@@Carolmaizy I usually scrape without cutting the tube open before rolling and clipping it. Lasts a bit longer and there's going to be some when you can't squeeze anymore.
In 2nd grade, uh, so 1995/96, my teacher had us students crush up different cereals and put magnets in them so see how much crumbs would stick. I forget the other contenders, but Cap'n crunch had the most. She explained it was because of the iron in it
The traffic signals around me have buttons, but they won't stop traffic in intersections. We have timed traffic lights, but if you don't press the button, they will skip the green man. At regular crossings, the light will stay green until someone presses the button. I have also never seen any coloured bread tags, as we only ever use white tags here. We have labels with the dates on them instead, so none will lay there for over a week and have someone think it was just put out
Same about tags. I've only seen two colors of tags, white and yellow, but as far as I know, there's no difference between the breads. They also print out the bake date on a tag. And our bread doesn't really live for more than 5 days
Cool video, but apple pie goes back at least 7000 years to ancient Greek 'plakous'. For the more familiar spiced and sweetened pie of recent times, that started at least as far back as 1381 in England. 😉
7:00 A 1.5 volt cell is not a battery but a single cell. A 3V; 4.5V; 6V; 9V; 12V is a battery made up of individual cells. The term battery comes from the military and describes the combination of several units.
We have an intersection right by my house where the light will stay green forever for cars crossing from one direction, and only change for the other direction of any cars actually show up. I can confirm though that the pedestrian button in that cross actually does something. You see for one direction of pedestrians the light will never turn green unless the button is pushed, even if the light turns green for the cars.
The loops embedded in the road to detect cars waiting for an advanced turn green light can be set up to detect a bicycle. Decades ago I had a light like that near my home but my 460 lb motorcycle wouldn't set it off. I ended up calling the city traffic control every time the signal didn't work and they reluctantly reset the sensitivity of the loop so it worked. It was a frustrating 6 weeks to get that fixed. Parking my bike in the turn lane and running to hit the cross walk button then running back to my bike wore thin fast!
With the cross buttons, NYC may be different and most may in fact be disabled, but what I've noticed in my area is pressing it doesn't seem to make the light change any faster, but it DOES extend the red for the road being crossed to be longer than it would be if the button wasn't pressed. In NYC, they are arguably pointless because if they did make the light change, like pointed out, it would exasperate already horrible traffic, and you figure probably 95% of the time, there are people waiting to cross nearly every street.
Seniors and people with disabilities may take longer to cross the road, so... perhaps, the reason. But most others are able to cross in much less time. And some better jurisdictions have changed laws to allow you to cross as long as you can within the countdown time, rather than forbid starting your crossing once the hand turns on.
In the U.K. it depends on the crossing if it’s pelican (men across the road) some in busy areas flash Amber and the green man flashes which makes the crossing act as a zebra (no lights) wile puffin (men same side of the road) they use sensors to detect if someone’s there, on the crossing, or absent before changing the signal if someone is on the crossing after the man goes red the lights will stay red till they cross, if a button is pressed and no one is detected the sensors will not sense anything and the button press is ignored, once the crossing is clear after the green man went red then the lights will turn green
Mr Tabane, you are our professor and I believe that we can rely only on YOU to use your power to sort all these guilty corrupt polititions and get them into prison.
Speed bumps are useless anyway. So what that you drive *a bit* slower? If I wanna run over a pedestrian, I'd still have time to accelerate while on the speed bump or after it.
The trafic light button is real (atleast in europe) you press it and in 5-60 seconds (depending on how much time has passed since last button press) the light turns green
Well In high traffic crosswalks they are usually timer set and there isn't a button to push while others have only sensors that sense when a pedestrian is nearby. Hope you understand now
@@ghostali8351where in Europe are you from? I'm UK and that's certainly not the case for us. I've never heard of this system you describe but Europe is pretty big 🤷🏻♀️😊
Not only do soft drink cans have more recycling... but plastic bottles, even when recycled, often actually aren't. One UA-camr who did recycling challenges was even surprised that they just shift that plastic recycling to the garbage, despite recycling yet not actually recyclable.
Here in FINLAND we have intelligent traffic lights. They have buttons which really work so cars don’t have to stop when there are no pedestrians. In the case the pedestrian cannot push the button, the lights change but you have to wait for some time. My Canadian uncle was thrilled because green lights were changed automatically when I was driving.
We have some now in my state of Massachusetts in the U.S. I appreciate them when occasionally driving home at 2:00 a. m- green lights all the way home.
Since the USB connector is universally mocked for being hard to determine which side is up, couldn’t they be cast with a ridge on one side or the other? Trying to see the tiny symbol is way insufficient.
The "power" button, is actually the standby symbol. On a switch, the 0 represents no power, and 1 represents power. If its a single button for power on/off, it's a 1 inside of a 0 (no break), indicating the button cycles from power off to power on. If the 1 is breaking the 0, it represents that you switch between power on and power mostly off, or standby, meaning there is still some power running through the device. For example, if you pressed the power button on your TV remote and it actually turned the power off, you wouldn't be able to turn it back on with your remote.

Most food safe cans have plastic liners, to prevent food tasting metallic. Been this way for years. One thing I always wondered.... Why have BRAILLE on the bank drive-through? 😮

As an elevator mechanic and very late to this video, you are mostly correct about the door close button. It is there for emergency personnel, but it also works for everyday use on certain controls. It can also be turned on or off on newer controls. Just push the floor you want, though. If anyone walks in after you push the floor button, it will reset a timer typically, so there is that, too. They aren't just a magic box that goes up and down
What most people don't know is that a battery is not what you put in a flashlight but, cells instead. That AA that has 1.5 volts is not a battery but a cell, but when you combine 2 or more of them then it becomes a battery.

If the elevator has a large load capacity, then the time that the algorithm will keep the doors open longer. The button is needed to reduce the wait.

We have labels with the dates on them instead, so none will lay there for over a week and have someone think it was just put out
Bread in stores near me have freshness dates on the bags, tags are irrelevant.
Same about tags. I've only seen two colors of tags, white and yellow, but as far as I know, there's no difference between the breads. They also print out the bake date on a tag. And our bread doesn't really live for more than 5 days
Where I am in Aus we've gone to just brown cardboard bread tags.
I love learning new things when I watch your videos. Thank you for the great work work you do for us to enjoy. 👍
Just in time I Can't sleep thank God you posted ❤❤❤
i watched be amazed videos last night for like 7 hours due to the same thing i never ended up getting to sleep
wow! how didn’t i realise that u have 12mil now?
been here since 900k and I’m so proud of how much you’ve grown :D
keep rocking as always!
Cool video, but apple pie goes back at least 7000 years to ancient Greek 'plakous'. For the more familiar spiced and sweetened pie of recent times, that started at least as far back as 1381 in England. 😉
Happy new year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I wonder how many people out there don't realize that we are also made of many different kinds of metals ...not just flesh in blood
love the channel good job
keep up the work
I said "I had no idea" to all of these. I am truly amazed every day by the channel!
7:00 A 1.5 volt cell is not a battery but a single cell.
A 3V; 4.5V; 6V; 9V; 12V is a battery made up of individual cells.
The term battery comes from the military and describes the combination of several units.
I love your videos
We have an intersection right by my house where the light will stay green forever for cars crossing from one direction, and only change for the other direction of any cars actually show up. I can confirm though that the pedestrian button in that cross actually does something. You see for one direction of pedestrians the light will never turn green unless the button is pushed, even if the light turns green for the cars.
The loops embedded in the road to detect cars waiting for an advanced turn green light can be set up to detect a bicycle. Decades ago I had a light like that near my home but my 460 lb motorcycle wouldn't set it off. I ended up calling the city traffic control every time the signal didn't work and they reluctantly reset the sensitivity of the loop so it worked. It was a frustrating 6 weeks to get that fixed. Parking my bike in the turn lane and running to hit the cross walk button then running back to my bike wore thin fast!
@@AutoCrete Damn... sounds super inconvenient.
There was a side-street on the south side of Chicago, which would never change the signal, unless one ran out and pushed the cross button.
I'm always amazed by this channel ❤❤

most entertaining and informative channel to exist😊
With the cross buttons, NYC may be different and most may in fact be disabled, but what I've noticed in my area is pressing it doesn't seem to make the light change any faster, but it DOES extend the red for the road being crossed to be longer than it would be if the button wasn't pressed. In NYC, they are arguably pointless because if they did make the light change, like pointed out, it would exasperate already horrible traffic, and you figure probably 95% of the time, there are people waiting to cross nearly every street.
Seniors and people with disabilities may take longer to cross the road, so... perhaps, the reason. But most others are able to cross in much less time. And some better jurisdictions have changed laws to allow you to cross as long as you can within the countdown time, rather than forbid starting your crossing once the hand turns on.
In California they turn the walk sign on, without a press, the walk sign does not come on so the sensors for cars can change the lights faster.
In the U.K. it depends on the crossing if it’s pelican (men across the road) some in busy areas flash Amber and the green man flashes which makes the crossing act as a zebra (no lights) wile puffin (men same side of the road) they use sensors to detect if someone’s there, on the crossing, or absent before changing the signal if someone is on the crossing after the man goes red the lights will stay red till they cross, if a button is pressed and no one is detected the sensors will not sense anything and the button press is ignored, once the crossing is clear after the green man went red then the lights will turn green
My town's buttons have never really affected the lights. They just let you know when the light changes.
Amazing facts, love it, thanks🤩🥰👍
Who wouldn’t be amazed of what videos makes
That's when you know it's time to change your brush ya filthy animal!😂😂😂 4:05
In the UK we tend to go for bread or milk at the back of the shelves as it's fresher and has a longer life

15:44 This takes Road Rage to a whole other level!
Speed bumps are useless anyway. So what that you drive *a bit* slower? If I wanna run over a pedestrian, I'd still have time to accelerate while on the speed bump or after it.
Plus, once you clear it and realize it's fake I know a lot of people are just going to slam the gas anyways cause they're pissed off lol 😂
SUUUUUUUUUPER COOOOOOOOOOOOOL Stuffs!!! 😎🤙❤
*HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!*
Switzerland
The trafic light button is real (atleast in europe) you press it and in 5-60 seconds (depending on how much time has passed since last button press) the light turns green
Well In high traffic crosswalks they are usually timer set and there isn't a button to push while others have only sensors that sense when a pedestrian is nearby.
Hope you understand now
@@ghostali8351 ??? I can't understand anything
@@ghostali8351where in Europe are you from? I'm UK and that's certainly not the case for us. I've never heard of this system you describe but Europe is pretty big 🤷🏻♀️😊
@@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliarsI'm aware of sensors... but where is there none... I can't think of a place.
@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars Yeah I live in Sweden and we have different systems all around the city
Best channel on UA-cam 🎉
Not only do soft drink cans have more recycling... but plastic bottles, even when recycled, often actually aren't. One UA-camr who did recycling challenges was even surprised that they just shift that plastic recycling to the garbage, despite recycling yet not actually recyclable.
Plus plastic is only recyclable a few times before its chemical bonds break down. Metals are infinitely recyclable.
takes a lot of extra amounts energy to collect them as well
Very nice detailed information I didn't think I needed.😊😊😊
Love your video Be Amazed and keep up the great work
Thanks 🙏🏻
All plastic tags on bread are white in Sweden, so we don't have that color system, but we do have date stamps on the plastic instead.
In Canada they are paper now
Same here in South Africa
Amazing,be amazed 😎
Here in FINLAND we have intelligent traffic lights. They have buttons which really work so cars don’t have to stop when there are no pedestrians. In the case the pedestrian cannot push the button, the lights change but you have to wait for some time. My Canadian uncle was thrilled because green lights were changed automatically when I was driving.
We have some now in my state of Massachusetts in the U.S. I appreciate them when occasionally driving home at 2:00 a. m- green lights all the way home.
That’s actually how it is in the USA too.
Since the USB connector is universally mocked for being hard to determine which side is up, couldn’t they be cast with a ridge on one side or the other? Trying to see the tiny symbol is way insufficient.
The "power" button, is actually the standby symbol. On a switch, the 0 represents no power, and 1 represents power. If its a single button for power on/off, it's a 1 inside of a 0 (no break), indicating the button cycles from power off to power on. If the 1 is breaking the 0, it represents that you switch between power on and power mostly off, or standby, meaning there is still some power running through the device. For example, if you pressed the power button on your TV remote and it actually turned the power off, you wouldn't be able to turn it back on with your remote.
I knew you posted a video my be amazed senses were tingling
HAPPY NEW YEARS BEAMAZED 🎉🎉🥰
wow you are relly amazing
Congratulations Be Amazed UA-cam channel team now having 12 million UA-cam channel subscribers.
It's no secret that be amazed made me smarter.
12 Million Subscribers! Real nice.
No wonder as kids we used to clean pennies in coke to brighten them up, that stuff seems to dissolve everything!! 😮😮 Loved this video, so much to learn.... Then forget again now I'm 50 😂😂😂
Who are we? I never did that. Because I never knew you could do that. Because I only ever used coke for its intended purpose: to drink.

I think you can do those push-ups! When I was a little kid my dad would give me these big trivia books every once in a while just to read,and the books were just full of fun facts. Your videos are like that! I've had them on in the background as I'm doing other stuff around the the home today and just wanted to leave this comment and share this video with others!
Most food safe cans have plastic liners, to prevent food tasting metallic. Been this way for years.
One thing I always wondered.... Why have BRAILLE on the bank drive-through? 😮
As an Uber driver, sometimes I have taken a blind customer to a bank drive-through. The Braille allows them to conduct their business themselves without needing me to get involved in any capacity other than as a driver, so they retain their privacy.
I read that ATMs are standard, and normally have Braille, since the same machines were used for walk-up ATMs.
So the country that invented the _Sleeping Policeman_ has „upgraded“ the concept with what can only be termed a *_Virtual_*_ Sleeping Policeman._ Given the increasing costs and cutbacks to Police forces all across the UK, I suppose we'll try _anything_ to save a quid or two! 💷🃏😉
And USB rechargeable foot/soccer balls? Surely the obvious approach to use would've been a QI charger? ⚽⚡😋
Finally: *Congratulations* on reaching 12mln subscribers! You guys are one of the best educational channels there is! 😊💯👍

That’s amazing
Another advantage to conical cups is that it looks like "only a little less" than a cylindrical one, but in fact their volume is only one *_third_* as much. So the employees will finish up faster and... _get back to work!_
Re. Tennis courts and the sun, why do you think that players change ends regularly? It is to ensure that each player has the same disadvantage, including sunshine.
I love be amazed❤❤❤❤❤❤
For the crosswalk buttons... I know for a fact that the few here in town that we have actually work. The walking man and countdown will never appear unless you press the button. So, that might only be a US thing or big cities thing. Because of course it is.
I love the way you weave the slick way of asking to like and subscribe in your repertoire. You have good content, so for me, it is an automatic like since I already subscribed a while back.
15:54 fake bumps would work ONCE 😂 once it's known they're fake, they're useless
I live here in London for 8 years now and ngl as I’ve realised everyone knows them they’re fake 🤣 for me personally it doesn’t really matter coz even when I’m on bike i just can pass between them, here’s very unlikely that they would make a full width of road, there are some but in higher percentage is the one u see like the fake ones that one on each side and one on the middle with little long humps
Exactly!! I don't know why anyone would think would work
Congrats on 12 million

Glass is 100 percent recyclable though? You can literally recycle it over and over and over again without loss of integrity
however the amount of energy it takes to collect these recyclables isn't necessarily recyclable
Interesting stories 😊

It's illegal to be this early
@DontDelete-fp8oy What meme? And no thanks I don't wanna be old.
As an elevator mechanic and very late to this video, you are mostly correct about the door close button. It is there for emergency personnel, but it also works for everyday use on certain controls. It can also be turned on or off on newer controls. Just push the floor you want, though. If anyone walks in after you push the floor button, it will reset a timer typically, so there is that, too. They aren't just a magic box that goes up and down

What most people don't know is that a battery is not what you put in a flashlight but, cells instead. That AA that has 1.5 volts is not a battery but a cell, but when you combine 2 or more of them then it becomes a battery.
