- Scorpion heats things up with his new Chain Reaction finisher in Mortal Kombat 11, pulling a heated chain through his opponents, but could this be done in the real world? Kyle fires up the void on this episode of The Science of Mortal Kombat!

Thanks for watching super nerds! And thanks for sticking around for this whole series. If you liked it, let us know! *Just quickly addressing* what will surely be the biggest complaint: we didn't pull the chain because it really has little to do with that. If the chain can't burn material out of the way, you aren't going to be "cutting," you are just going to pull a body. That's why we wanted to test the burning more than the pulling. Also, the chain was heated consistently and thoroughly in a makeshift kiln off-camera. ALSO used a chain that looked closest to the game. FURTHERMORE in the temp regime we are in, superhuman pull force will only be testing pulling a chain through a person, and it’s obviously the heat that’s doing the work here. - kH
Lol this channel has been a Mortal Combat channel for a few weeks now.
You didn't make the chain yellow hot and that was probably for a good reason. What was it?
You definitely weren't anywhere near the upper range of the available temperatures, given that your chain was dull red, and much much colder than the clip you show which was more of a yellow hot (~1500 K). The only conclusion that you can draw is that at low temperatures you need something more flammable than a human for it to work, but not that the chain shown in the clip couldn't. I understand why you didn't go that hot, a chain is a large object and would radiate a lot of heat very fast, plus you'd need something more like a linear furnace or induction furnace to heat it rather than a torch, so safety and equipment issues.
Another thing is that Scorpion's chain is always (magically of course) heated evenly and stays that way throughout the move. It most likely regains the heat energy it passes on to the victim pretty much immedeatly, which means that it'd be able to melt things much faster and way more effectively. As said however, that would involve magic.
You guys got to get that chain hotter
Tfw an Aussie in a garage debunked this experiment done by a whole team of ppl
I did a thing

So in other words the answer is yes, Scorpion Can Cut a Person in Half with Heat.
"Can You Uppercut a Person Off the Ground?" Vid needs to get debunked next!
Embarrassing. Although, without this video his great video would have never been made. I like how he lays a saw on a piece of wood and says "this just isn't how you cut stuff".
Lmao
Who would win?

1. The chain is hot as hell (literally)
2. Scorpion hits really hard
3. The first part to hit is always the spike, causing a the initial tear
And they also didn’t even pull down they just laid the chain on and said that’s good enough
Thewa Tcher also made a retarded excuse of saying that force has nothing to do with it as it chain can’t burn though something it wouldn’t be able cut
I dont need to watch a video to know this would cut through some MEAT. I thought it was common knowledge that anything hot enough will get through most anything.
Your grammar is shit
Thewa Tcher you can tell that if they even laid it down it would cause a big fire so why move the chain around to cause a bigger fire?
Scorpion is incredibly strong. Applying strength and force in the fatality. U guys just layed it upon the dummy.
They said they were not testing the cutting but if the chain can burn through it, which is also stupid because they even addressed his chain could be over 1400 degrees, but they only managed to reach 500. This experiment was terrible all together
Bro if they applied force it would erupt a bigger fire this is real life did you see how it erupted from laying it down? Common sense bro
Devon malory I agree with you scorpion applies force
Your under arrest for saying something i was about to say
#FBI abuse
@@icyy_createz but that's what scorpion did.... if you are trying to find the answer you have to do the test as closely as the original claim
"The chain in the game is probably closer to 1400 degrees, but, eh, we'll do 500."
And he use force to cut the opponent
Jacob Friedman that would melt the chain
@@agishrimpton8807 Well, then, it's debunked, isn't it?
Jacob Friedman ye
@@agishrimpton8807 no it wouldn't the melting point is around 1800 K
Doesn’t Scorpion use force when he splits his opponents with his chain?
Wouldn't matter. It's not hot enough to damage it to the point where force will help too much.
Yeah, but adding force would help. If you put a hot knife on something, it isn't guaranteed that it will pass. Put force behind it and it will cut.
@@ericfellner2689 well one we have no idea how hot his fire is since he is magic, two hes super human with the strength to crush bones sith a single punch. The force in which hes pulling along with how crazy strong and hot his flames are together would indeed split a person in half.
If its hot enough itll cut through anything. If its strong enough itll break through anything.
its simliar to pulling a cold chain trough urself, just wont work, no matter the force( for the most part at least)
same here, if there is not enough heat to evaporate everything in its way pulling on the chain wont do u much good.
@@connorirons4542 s knife had an edge and will cut regardless of heat

Waiting to watch Scorpion gently lay a chain on his enemies in the next release of the game.
I'm honestly surprised that no one has chimed in with "Well that would still be lethal" these past 3 years
@@keksidy well that would still be lethal
its called Because Science is a hipster fatality
Your test had 3 problems though.
1) Scorpion doesn't only use the heat, he's pulling on the chain adding a great deal of force to it. And as your previous video proved scorpion is significantly stronger than the average person.
2) You only had the chain on 1 side of the dummy. In the fatality Scorpion wraps the chain around you on both sides of your body at once, kind of like scissors going through cardboard. Since the damage is double sided it's effectiveness is much greater.
3) Your chain was red hot while Scorpions is clearly yellow hot.
While your video itself was fun and entertaining, your data was unfortunately inaccurate.
5h0ckblock it's as accurate as real life allow it to be
@@Collfuse Not really. While replicating Scorpions physical strength is impossible, they still could have pulled on it to get as close as humanly possible.
Additionally if they used a standing dummy they could have wrap the chain around the body like I said in point 2. Finally the temperature wasn't the hottest it could have been as mentioned in the beginning of this video.
@@Collfuse I agree with 5h0ckblock. The chain, as indicated in the beginning of the video, could have been more than two or even three times as hot without failing. That kind of heat could have done significantly more damage, especially if there were force applied to increase the level of contact and move the chain through the testing material. Even still, though, it wouldn't have been a very accurate test as they were only trying to get through a flesh stand-in. Bones are much more dense and would not 'melt' as easily as flesh.
5h0ckblock ok I'll give you that
🤣 🤣 BURN 🤣🤣
my favourite fatality in mortal kombat is when scorpion doesnt heat up his chain to the correct temperature and then lightly sets it on an opponent made out of silicon rubber, applying no pressure at all
A guy in his back garden did a better job of this test than you guys!! You need to try again
ua-cam.com/video/e0G1cDrCE2k/v-deo.html
@Daniel Kintigh seriously, I watched this video just to see how wrong they were, and they seemed to care more about "comedic timing" as if this were a comedy class, than the actual science in the video
Scorpion uses hellfire this could never work
Came here after watching
I did a thing's video. Big OOF getting debunked by one guy. After watching the test done here... you guys made no effort to simulate what scorpion did, double oof?
Yep their fucking trash
@@smol1211 *they're
Same
@@smol1211 Only for this episode, otherwise they're pretty good.
1. Doesn't pierce the body first with an edge attached to the end of the chain.
2. Doesn't maintain the temperature of the chain.
3. Lets part of the chain cool down to the point that it even stops glowing before they even put it on...
4. It STILL starts to burn fiercely around the hottest areas.
And lastly, Scorpions chain was clearly red/white hot. Red glow to the sides, white in the middle.
The 2nd point is however clearly the main issue. He clearly maintains the heat of the chain, and as we know: Iron transfers heat rather rapidly, so maintaining the heat of that chain would cause it to quickly transfer enormous amounts of heats, scorching the body way, way faster than the temperature of the chain would suggest.

*I should have checked the comments first*
btw Thank U
9 minutes of useless things. Wow
Thanks
Thank u my dude
well, one thing you guys are missing is that Scorpion is pulling that chain with the force of a Truck doing 0 to 60 in 3 seconds.
I mean to be completely fair they're doing their best without killing themselves or someone else
People are really hard to satisfy
@@sasquatchkidPS3Xx They could've bought some meat from a butcher shop?
You know, to simulate flesh.
But they didn't so they lose on that part.
@@aledrpepg Then everyone in the comments would be complaining about animals instead. As dude said, hard to satisfy people. :D
Netkos Ent Yeah, I forgot how up and arms people got over Mythbusters using pigs for their experiments. Just kidding, nobody gave a shit then and they still don’t care with shows like Forged in Fire.
@@aledrpepg Probably budget, and some people who don't enjoy science.
You really needed a dead pig, a plasma coil running through the chain to achieve the orange-yellow hot temp, and then yank the chain downward to split in two.
I agree so much with u, damn, just buying a dead pig would be even cheaper than those stupid silicone dummys.
Also, the chain in his test looked much colder than Scorpion's chain.
Not really, one australian dude did it in his backyard on the channel 'I did a thing', it didn't even take much force
@@filipeoscarclaresdesouza2924 everything about the test in this video was done for show, they put the actual science in the video behind making the video look interesting, and they might have done it on purpose just to make the video more than 10 minutes long and more interesting for a 10 year old.
@@olive6942 Maybe that's why Kyle left them
or a aussie in his backyard
Came here after watching ' I did thing '. Am not surprised..
Me to
1. They didn't use flesh.
2. Scorpion pulls the chain, it's not burning through solely by gravity.
3. Their chain was no where near as hot as it is in the game, some links were black.
We can Cross out 1, They cant Use human flesh
Tethys of the marches it’s not possible for it to be scorpion uses hellfire so It is literally impossible to do so
He basically explained the first 2 points away at about the 7:20 mark for the "pulling" and the 8:10 mark for not using flesh.
@@angeltheangel2088 he meant other type of flesh
@@angeltheangel2088 They can use pig flesh, it's very similar to human. He said in the video "we can use human or animal because Hey guys it's fake fire!" And didn't give a reason.
If this is what peak science communication is capable of, I'd rather be an aussie in a backyard
That feeling when an aussie with no shoes on and a 500$ budget(I did a thing) makes a better science video than a science channel named "because science"
His entire channel up until that video probably cost around $500 to produce lol.

Straight to the point, explains what he does and did it, that’s it
You be the judge
Why do you miss the point that Kyle points out that they do not have ye physical strength to yank it like scorpion
NIGHT WOLF Because you don’t need Scorpions strength to do that. Watch I did a things video on this. He proves that with just a little force put behind it, it could work.
@@HRG526 because they layed the chain on gently, so there is no force involved.
Don't forget about no shoes
One issue here would be that scorpion literally uses the chain as a sort of a whip, which deals enormous force and damage once the whipping hits an object. Also its always glowing yellow which is absolutely hot enough to melt human flesh. Scorpion's also a mortal kombat character, which obviously means it has ridiculous strength and power
Good video, but ripping a chain with the flames of literal hell through a person and lightly setting a normal, very hot chain on a person is not the same thing
Exactly, no force for the cutting was used
Yea this was weak
I mean comparing fire to hell-fire is like comparing captain marvel to Thor. I mean, can you believe that :P?
@@matttheradartechnician2342 captin marval has the power of the space stone
Thor is a GOD
Matt the Radar Technician what? That was a horrible analogy....you should’ve used vision compared to Thor or someone powerful compared to vision
Scorpion is strong enough to split through bricks with his hand.
Im pretty sure he uses as much force he needs
The metal would still start melting
Lee Calhoun he had the chain on him when quan chi turned him into a specter so the chain won't melt no matter what as it's used to the hallfire from quan chi's spell
Much like how scorpion doesn't get hurt by his flames
@@tgreen9774 In a world where a ninja who wields fire that removes his mask to reveal a skull, is it that implausible that the chain might be magic as well?

@@tgreen9774 the guy literally wields fire from hell and can crush a human with his hand, but the melting point is where you draw the line of suspension of disbelieve?
"Hey you know what would be an effective way of cutting something"
"by placing in on lightly"
Go watch the video on the channel "I did a thing". He's an Aussie in his backyard that debunked this experiment.
I would think that scorpion’s massive amount of strength pulling on the chain would have a major impact on it being able to slice through someone.
Well you do wanna include the sharp kinda pointed thing in the end of the chain could be one of the factor
Yes but it stays in the real of mortal kombat cause he's probably stronger than any human
@@crodova8 Well Scorpion wasn't a human, and yeah he does had superhuman ability, but what i wanna to say is, maybe Scorpion doesn't use the Chain to split people in half y'know, he maybe use the sharp kinda kunai figure to split them, if there's step by step how to, maybe it will become like this.
Throw the chain, make sure the sharp edge stab the opponent's body, then spin the chain around their body (doesn't matter if upside down or other, but i know different place had different result) then pull the chain, and the sharp edge will cut them in half.
Given the fact, his equal has ripped out spines in the past makes this even more evident.

Love your profile pic (˵ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°˵)(I love him)
“Replicate the conditions” *doesn’t come close to replicating conditions
This video is about recreating scorpions move
But they didn't do any of that and they say that they are testing if heat alone can cut trough a person
This contradicts this video because they didnt recreate the scorpion fatality and now they claim that they are testing a different theory all together
Then this video should be renamed can a hot chain cut through a person
Not recreating scorpions fatality
"Because Science"
*Scorpion didn't gently lay his chain on the combatant, he pulled it using force, and considering he is incredibly strong it seems more feasible. Could this give it more cutting/slicing momentum?*
Along with giving the chain a consistent heat and actually exploring the upper end of the "Pink Hot" he mentions...
Plus... While Silicone has an ingnition point similar to animal flesh, it doesn't char or melt like flesh and fat does
That would be a way funnier/more gruesome fatality, though. Just carefully putting the chain on top and drinking a cup of tea while it slowly burns through the body, before realizing it won't make it and then just stomping on their head or something.
Um he went to hell and back
Yeah and I mean those aren't hell flames
There are _many_ things about their experiment that sort of fell short of an actual conclusion. The temperature of the chain, the uniformity of heat distribution on the chain, the material used in place of flesh (and the entire human rig for that matter), the amount of force applied to the heated chain, and application of that force (as the clip they showed was more of a cinching motion which is _FAR_ better at cutting through things than trying to push straight through it) were all factors they failed to address properly. That had the idea right on paper, but failed to address the nitty gritty aspects of reality that would make or break whether it's actually possible or not. It is _entirely_ feasible that under a properly done experiment this is an entirely possible action, but the lack of a proper rig just makes this a weird thought experiment instead.
There's a reason your silicon oven pans and mitts don't suddenly fall apart in the oven...just because silicon _burns_ similarly to flesh doesn't mean it distributes heat the same way ESPECIALLY when you consider flesh is only a _very_ small portion of the body the chain would have to get through, yet this rig had it going through nothing but flesh allegory.
Points you’re missing:
+Scorpion pulls on the chain.
+The chain is hot as “Hell”
I'm sorry, Because Science.
I have to agree with I Did A Thing.
You've probably had a thousand and one comments about it already, and I understand your focus is on the heat aspect - but your focus on one particular aspect is absolutely not scientific.
When packing snow into snowballs, the imparted force applies heat - which you may see as negligible in this test - as well as pressure.
You saw damage from the heat.
You saw obvious burns and an entire small trench made from the chain.
And instead of stopping and saying, "huh, I wonder why this didn't sink any further in. We should try to remedy that," you decided it was best to simply fake it, and make a scientific call off of almost no data.
One test, no trend built, no alterations to the original test (heat of chain, whether or not pressure makes a difference, anything involving the chain), and immediate assumption thereafter.
Because SCIENCE. You have officially flopped on your own namesake.
My suggestion?
If you're gonna make this little effort to actually be scientific about the circumstance, at least end it how the mythbusters would:
1. C4, or
2. Thermite.
Thanks for reading, anyone that made it this far.
I gotta agree with your last two points. If it's not scientifically possibly with the real thing, ramp it up to see what it would actually take for something like this to be feasible. (I particularly like the Thermite idea.)
This segment felt a bit too rushed and not well thought through with.
@@volksdude1970
Absolutely.
Thermite is always fun.
Though it would be fun to watch someone hit tannerite with a long hammer. Or, if they wanted to keep to the chain thing - why not a "chain" of Det Cord?
Do keep in mind Kyle isn't an actual scientist. Hes just a guy with a UA-cam channel, an interest in a topic, and way too much time
@@hydrainfernos9081
You do have a good point. However, scientific method isn't hard to understand - for enthusiast's sake.
Fightre Flighte good point, I was kore just clarify in that nerdy Thor is just a guy
You missed the part where you go to hell and come back up
Lmaoo they can't
Why you didn't force the chain through his body? I'm pretty sure that that would do the trick.
Update :
Take a needle and raise the temperature until it hit the limit (it can be any other metal object, with or without a sharp surface). Then just put it in a upside down plastic cup and see how many holes you can do by the force of gravity. Now, repeat the process, but apply force to it and tell me how many holes you'll be able to make... Don't tell me that if you pull the chain it doesn't have anything to do with it. Pardon me, but that's a HUGE mistake. Also the chain is around the subject, reducing the trace that it needs to take through the body.
Subscribe To PewDiePie rename yourself, the movement is over
Would make no difference
F gottem, I actually used to have the exact same getup. F
I mean a force would have something to do with it I’m pretty sure
@F but he is pulling it, we see the victim bending backwards and it doesn't go through them until he explodes out of the ground
So basically this is just 1000 degree knife challenge but with a chain
Something like that
Yeah
yup
But with human :)
Its way hotter then that
The fact that it is even possible to be this completely devoid of effort is almost impressive.
Im amazed this is a science channel based on the lack of effort you guys put into anything.
Someone put in effort ua-cam.com/video/e0G1cDrCE2k/v-deo.html
Totally accurate because Scorpion says let me lay this on you and wait lol
kingandrew 14 fr
Lol 😂😂
Stay over there!
Scorpion :
Relax. Let it happen. It'll be over sooner.
If it can't burn through from the heat alone, adding force by pulling will not change that.
The conclusion is definitely flawed here, given that the chain was MUCH cooler than the white hot you show in the game footage. You used an acetylene torch to heat the chain, which while effective at limited areas, failed to bring the entire chain to temperature over a consistent percentage of the length.
Properly, this test should have had the chain in an oven, first to make the heating equal over the entire length, and second to bring the temperature up MUCH higher and hold it there more consistently.
@@zootopiaondvd8081 they could use a sword forge
Also, they didnt apply any friction or pressure.
they should have heated it with high current
also also, I failed science class back in high... and wouldn't be more accurate to like PULL on the chain (at least downward) to burn faster or cut faster ? like scorpion pulls on it. they just let it rest on top of it and wait.
Michael Phillips yeah plus scorpion pulls the chain through
Meantime in Australia, real meat acts like real meat. What meat have, that ruber fake material don't:
Water
Fat
Individual layers of muscle cells.
Im kinda annoyed that they used silicone which is more resilient to heat than a flesh that is less resilient
Is this trash? Clearly in the game the chain is white hot and gets pulled by scorpion as he dives underground.
But naw, you guys are doing this for the money, not real science.

You failed to mention that in game two other very important factors in play. First the chain wraps around the opponent rather than cutting through like a blade would. Second scorpion uses the wrapped chain like a reverse saw of sorts in that it's the rotational Force plus the heat of the chain that actually does the lethal blow.
Oh look it's Thork, Thor and Loki's dorky unheard brother.

Scorpion's chain starts glowing white hot right when Scorpion sinks into the ground. Nice effort but inaccurate test.
An Aussie in his back yard debunked this channel; a geoup of scientists
Ah yes G E O U P
Something they didn’t take into account was that the chain stays at a constant temperature as scorpion pulls it through someone
The chain was inconsistently heated. Should have used a forge to heat the entire chain at max temperature
Definitely should have used a bit of pulling force from the chain. It doesn't cut through the person until he pulls it back up.

Easy example
Adding pressure to an ice cube to melt it
(no heat source at all).
Scorpion doesn't just lay his chain on his victim during the fatality. He also pulls on it. That probably helps the chain burn through flesh.
Yes, like a scissor.
If I'm remembering correctly he uses his entire body weight to pull on the chains via hell portal.
Yes and the chain is most likely stronger than a normal chain (it comes from inside scorpions body) so it can get way hotter using his hell flames and then he uses his imence amount of strength to pull the chain
@@wowguy1243 what ya talking about, wait is hat not normal. Oh that probably explains the screaming
Not to mention that chain was nowhere near as hot. They should have used a forge not a torch
Yeah but you guys didnt actually pull the chain you just laid it on the dummy so its really too accurate because theres no actual pressure applied.
You should have used an blacksmiths oven to really really heat the chain
oven?

@@jordanfriederichs8698 lol In all fairness, that goes for all of us responding and/or reacting to him. :D
Two major flaws here, guys.
1: the chain wasn't nearly hot enough.
2: You clearly are forgetting a major point of the fatality: the chain isn't just falling through the target on its own. Scorpion is *yanking it* through them. If you just let gravity do the work then yeah, it will not work. But if you pull it through, you'd actually get results.
Other comments have said the same thing as me but with a lot more detail and knowledge on the subject matter, but that doesn't change the massive mistake you made with it.
Also isn't scorpion from hell the fire there is so hot and he has super human strength.
Read his disclaimer...
The chain may have been hot enough due to most cameras having a colour correction and light correction built in they often render the colour temperatures of heated steel down making them look cooler than they are.
@@MTParnell The look isnt the problem. Scorpion's chain comes from his body and is stronger and wont melt. And then scorpion uses his hell fire summoned strait from hell to heat it so it is way more hotter than we humans can make stuff. although i dont blame the people trying to test it but i dont like the fact that they are trying to say scorpion cant do his fatality because they think the only factor about scorpions fatality was a chain and a little bit of heat. ( Scorpions chain is heated by Hell Fire directly from hell which means it is definatly way more hotter than the chain they used
The fire is from the Netherrealm (Hell basically). It's hot, with mystical properties, and his strength is super human.

@@leeks5750 "Hi, I would like to speak with you"
LMAO if that was a Fatality
Doesn't matter, heat does the work here. Pulling doesn't change anything. And before the argument with a heated knife comes up: a knife has a blade. That's totally different from a blunt chain, the force helps the knife because you can put this force in a very small area of effect (the edge of the blade), you can't do that with a chain.
EXACTLY!!! He obviously pulls his chain cutting his opponents in half
Why didn't you use a forge or foundry to EVENLY heat the chain and actually bring it up to the correct temperature? I think this test needs a redo...
Agreed. If not that, they could have summoned up fires from hell to assist with it so that we could have a real depiction of something that's fictional in a video game. I just don't get it. It's almost like they did this video just for fun; they need to take things more seriously like you and I.

These guys really got debunked by a guy at home wearing no shoes
imagine having a whole bunch of money and equipment but still getting debunked by some guy in his backyard
Correction of the entire experiment and its results. Please read.
Hello Kyle,
I have found the results of your latest Mortal Kombat video problematic in its findings. The issues that I have with your experiment revolves primarily around the chains and the test subject. I'll start with the chains and the method in which you chose to prepare them for the experiment. An acetylene torch may be a great way to heat a localized or small steel object, but for a chain it is very inefficient and ineffective. Within the promotional trailers for Scorpions Chain Fatality, it is shown to be a yellowish white. The temperature at these colors ranges from 982 - 1315 degrees Celsius (1800 - 2400 degrees Fahrenheit). From the speckled coloration of scarlet to bright scarlet, you at the most reached 760 - 871 degrees Celsius (1400 - 1600 degrees Fahrenheit). However, you only reached such temperatures on specific locations; nine chain links were cold in forging terms. The areas in which no coloration could be found were at least 640 degrees Celsius or below (1200 Fahrenheit). In this experiment, you never reached the temperatures of that of Scorpions chain thus nullified any result you may have found. An acetylene torch was the incorrect method of heating such a chain. You should have placed its entirety into a medium to large sized propane forging furnace and waited till it reached a white/yellow hue before removal.
Now as for your flesh analogs, they are both severely inadequate to test the resilience of flesh to such temperatures. The tissue is primarily comprised of fluid-filled cells the rupture in the presence of extreme heats. The fluids within converting into steam while the remaining bio-matter burning. Such bio-matter will vaporize between 750 - 1150 degrees Celsius (1382 - 2102 degrees Fahrenheit). Another discrepancy deals with the omission of bones, tendons, and cartilage. Bones, on the other hand, will fracture and begin disintegration at 1500 degrees Celsius (2732 degrees Fahrenheit). Instead of silicone or foam, animal tissue should have been used if this was to be an accurate test. There are two ways in which this could have been performed. The first would revolve around a lean and deceased pig, and the chain lay on either side of its torso. The result may have shown the metal eating away at the soft flesh while expelling steam and burning away the remains. However, the bones should have halted it fall unless enough heat was applied to fracture said structures. Another method is to systematically test the chain against raw pig organs, muscle tissue, tendons, cartilage, and bones individually to see how far the chains would eat their way through each analog. Despite such a thorough test, you must also inspect as to whether or not the amount of pressure applied to the chain effects the result.
Either way, neither the chain or the analog were performed adequately in your experiment. At the most, you merely proved that an 871 centigrade chain could burn/melt silicone as well as a foam. You never answered the question as to if you can theoretically slice an individual in half with a heated chain. If you would like to dispute my claim or discuss it further. I would be more than happy to. If you would like to perform the experiment accurately, I can inform you as to how you can create a reasonably small forge furnace that would be adequate for the experiment.
Love your comment
This is why i love this channel. Theres always a bigger supernerd out there. Love the analysis
Would make no difference
im not reading that 😂 Thx 4 da like
Ironman and Thor dies in endgame
I'm a little lost on the tempering of the the chain, it should have been placed in a forge, and brought to 1420° f(just befor loosing magnetism), to get the proper temperature across the entire set of links in the chain, and prevent vaporization of the steel, being able to hold its structure.
All of those analogs wouldn't respond properly, compared to pig/boar(as you stated), so even the ideal test, wasnt with in the testing parameters.
And the velocity factory was negated in the testing, it would add additional force/pressure to the validity of the heat, being applied to the subject.
But I enjoyed the hell out of this kyle.
They did it this way for safety I'm sure but in doing so they completely destroy their chances of success
Or maybe a high electric current
Also the exerted no force in the game he ties it around and pulls causein the chains to be propelled and cause a quite a bit more damage than just simply placing it down
michael fridman in the game you can see throws the spear into them, jumps over their head and teleports into hell, going under and in front of them. This deteriorates a good bit of the flesh and material on the persons head and backside, so when he comes back up where he started and yanks the chain, cutting them in half, you can see that extra bit of force pulls the chain through the already deteriorated tissue, which sounds highly plausible to me. There’s no way this test can be done accurately if it’s done completely safe
I have to agree because there a lot of factors in the experiment that they didn't use in order to make the fatality more plausible and using a blow torch to heat up the chain will immediately lose all of the heat as soon a section has been heated up and transferred to the testing area. Not using a forge and pulling it afterwards made the experiment null and void.
Lmao I love y’all but a channel called “I did a thing” debunked your test completely lol without shoes on or any gear
Scorpion also used super human strength to cut the person in half, you guys just placed it on top of it, this was very disappointing. Someone did it better with actual meat on youtube.
Unless you get the fires from hell, your test will be inaccurate every time 🤔😂
They forgot to add force
You are so right these guys are trying to be smart but they are dumm as fuck
@@turtle7219 The reasoning for not heating to higher temperatures is addressed in the video. Even with sufficient force action the chain still isn't going to be feasibly hot enough to safely work with and to be successful. If the chain can't penetrate a cm from heat alone no amount of force energy is going to change that; if it did the heat energy then becomes redundant in relation to the thousands of newtons of force that becomes the main penetrative factor. At that point you may aswell not bother with heating the chain. At the end of the day you are also trying to justify fiction and need to chill. They have the necessary science degrees and are working with what they can.
@@Dracoriax nah "I did a thing" channel showed how to do it right
@It took the wheel Fair enough I was wrong.
The pork was probably a more flammable/realistic analogue too.
Even when the heated chain was simply lying on the pork it seemed to also penetrate better; it would interesting to see just how effective the heated chain in that video penetrated without force too
But there was pulling on the execution you just set it on the dummy
that is true and i do think it would probably go in further but it would take a longer time and probably lose heat in the mean time so it wouldnt be that much greater. plus more flames and the way they set it up could be a hazardous.
I mean they did say at 7:30 that pulling it won't do any good unless the chain was thinner and was physically burning the material away
xExileDx META yeah i take back my earlier comment, but i think they didn't pull it for safety reasons
@@Gacho39 It _would_ do good though as the better surface contact would let the heat spread to the dummy better.
@@Gacho39 They say that but should've have shown it as well.
Me: Watches for entertainment
Serial killer: Thanks for the tip
Maybe Scorpions chain is a special kind of metal that can hold even MORE heat
No, they just didn't heat it up enough
You have heat, but no force. Scorpion swings his superheated chain with extreme force.
yeah and he pulls which i think will go deeper then just resting but i dont think think that much better.
@@dannyg.4421 Probably still wouldn't work but it would at least be a way better test. There's no way anyone seeing the fatality would think it's only the heat doing it, there's very obviously force behind it as well.
yeah testing this was extremely difficult, you have to calculate that Scorpion heat is probably optiman too, which means he has the entire chain at the maximum possible temperature for that material, so this was for sure not as hot and, like you said, there was no movement as well, but that was not doable without taking tisks xd
the knife blade barely pierces the body (about 4-5 inches), and the chain doesn't even pull the target off of their feet. with how little the silicon was even charred, i'd say the force is negligible at this temperature
DannyTilted when Scorpion is in hell his power increases more than 10 percent
To be fair Scorpion Yanks it through the target and not let it sit on the person. Plus it's HELL HEAT so obviously just regular red heat isnt gonna do the job.
Hellfire would most likely obliterate anything it touches. Also I don't think is can ever go out, unless commanded by a demon.
Beat me to it, he's also using force while going underground and coming up, not just putting the chain on them.
true it does melt the ground lol
And inconsistent, kinda almost red but not really glowing heat.
thats not how u cut stuff, in elementary school did u cut paper by laying a pair of scissors very gently on it?
Well, yeah?
Wow, you really laid the hot chain down gently on this one
They didn’t do the fatality right. If you were to get the whole thing ignited, place it down and then yank on it with enough force as scorpion, It would work (mind you scorpion is hella strong too)
Escanor
exactly
Escanor Exactly
Yep
Exactly
Nigga is also from fucking HELL itself his shit is hotter than this
Doesn't Scorpion have hellfire, which is even more hot than casual fire?
And also he uses force. I mean, he like just uses his weight to split the enemy too
hellfire is stated to be 70 times hotter than the sun... and hes he yanks the chain pretty damn hard, as seen by the victim leaning back before getting cut in half
Señor Lechuga well when you think about it scorpion can actually teleport to hell and back
Plus he’s applying constant heat to the chain
“All I see is some charring” well yeah that happens when you use the fire extinguisher after 3 seconds
When an Australian outbacker is better suited to science than a community of "scientists"
I feel unsatisfied! Because they didn't use brute force to cut them in half!😐
ua-cam.com/video/e0G1cDrCE2k/v-deo.html
I am disappointed. The chain you heated was of significantly lower temperature then the chain in the game.
Should of hit up a youtube blacksmith and used a forge to get it consistantly heated throughout the entire chain. This oxy-acetylene proxy was just sad and lazy.
i agree, a tourch wasnt enough, they could have hit up one of many blacksmiths so they could have gottwn even heating on the chain
Lyulf nothing new look at the CM Punk episode lol
I believe the chain is losing temperature very rapidly. I believe they shouldve used a resistance heater to heat the chain and keep it at 500-600 Degrees. That wouldve been a true test.
Yeah lots of parts on the chain werent even red hot. The entire chain is supposed to be nearly white hot. Using a forge is a good idea. And there needs to be SOME force. He quickly squeezes the chain around the entire target in the fatality.
Three things:
- Photonicinduction,
- Electricity,
- Make the entire chain red hot.
Dude lol you can easy have done this. Use Force to pull it through
Like the Aussie in the backyard said, "you need to apply pressure along with the heated chain."
his chain does not need to be magical it just needs to be made of tungsten.
Its not magical.. Its virtual.
Let’s see if the experiment this week is incredibly fundamentally flawed. One out of six wouldn’t be too bad.
EDIT: Ah well, it was a nice thought.
bruv, that's like laying a saw on wood and expecting it to cut it in half.
Aussie in his backyard did it better than this, jesus.
UA-cam recommended “I did a thing” and I saw how he debunked your video. Damn I think he did a fatality
Well an alternative idea is that scorpion isn't using just heat to cut the target in half. We already know he's a lot stronger than an actual person can be. And we also know that a hot knife will go through butter faster if you push on it, but also that it's easier to push a knife through butter if one of the two is hot. I don't think this is a good enough test.
Knives have sharp edges to cut stuff, a chain does not.
Tensai knives are sharpened because it focuses all of the force, the MK characters already have superhuman strength and can punch through someone’s chest if the want. Add that force to a whipping motion and an upwards pul and it’ll Cut pretty damn easy.
@@matheusjezini "sharp" is relative to what you're trying to cut and how much force you're using. Your finger is "sharp" enough to pierce jello, after all.
Said another way, for an object of a given size and material being pressed against another material, there is an amount of force that will cause one or the other of them to break, bend, split, etc.
@@stranger6822 it would rather launch him into the air than cut through then I think, the heat wouldn't realy make a difference
that chain didn't look nearly as hot as the game and no force was put on the body. Weaksauce
*closing in on silicone dummy*
*gently whispers "hot chain"*
No effect
"Well now apparently there is no way for a hot chain to rip through a body"
1. You didn't apply force when Scorpion very clearly does
2. The chain's red hot instead of the yellow hot depicted ingame
3. Silicone rubber doesn't react to heat the same way flesh does
Brought to you by all of those 1000 degree knife channels. (◔_◔)
1000 degree knife chalenge 3 am *GONE SEXUAL* featuring FUCKING SCORPION *CLICK FOR FUCK SAKE*
Maybe the chain was not cut the body the first time because i guess you needed more pressure on it.
13:34 hey!! Is Jacqui Briggs :O
Ezequiel Avila nope thats just a black girl
Oh :'(
"DUUUUDE I got a super great idea for a video!" "What?" "Let's heat up a chain with a simple torch and gently lay it on a fake corpse and disprove the fatality on MK and hype the shit out of it all video, if we're good enough we can get it over 15 minutes!"
Edit: a word.
I think you forgot something important.
Scorpion pulls the chain, resulting in cutting the body.
BoomYa he also forgot to pull Thru hell
Good to see that you invited Liu Kang.
Wow (^U^)
Your a fool🤣
GEX Bot I think he just lost weight
GEX Bot LMAO
Kyle, _bruh_ ...
This whole video is so high production but for a science related vid and sponsor from warner bros games, this felt SO underwhelming. none of this felt real, just fluff and camera work to increase the viewership rather than actually test something within any measure of having it come out as the game intends it would. this wasnt because science, it was because WB
Obe Qwaet **waits for a response**
J Jonah you’re the “one guy”
Fasin no, he’s not lol. pretty obviously you.
Jalen Moudy ur obviously the “second guy” peon
Can I be the third guy
Scorpion had momentum and applied force actually PULLING on the chain when he split him
