    We do know that flour can explode with tremendous force. Not just burn quickly but create a supersonic shockwave. Flour mills have been completely blown to piece by explosions throughout history. Sugar is even more powerful than non-dairy creamer and can burn so hot that it can melt through steel. An explosion at the imperial sugar factory in 1990 was able to throw machinery weighing tons over 400 feet.
    It's important to remember that our body uses oxidation to create energy. So high caloric food like fat and sugar burns with a lot of energy.

      In combat demolitions of a structure like a house, to save explosives, you place a small charge surrounded by a few bags of flour with an ignition source across the room. The small charge distributes the flour and once it reaches the other side of the room it all ignites and levels the house.

    That's interesting cause usually with rockets they are very finicky and go out of control if they are not very finely tuned. Maybe it's related to water's incompressibility or something that it's so much more forgiving. Though the weight and stiffness of the hoses themselves does help.

    • @nicholascrow8133
      @nicholascrow8133 6 місяців тому +5

      I think the hoses themselves might be providing some stability, but also consider rockets have a lot more power to balance out, combined with a smaller footprint. The car frame has a relatively larger spacing between nozzles and a smaller thrust to weight ratio (Hence it maxing out in height)
      There's probably more to it also but I think these factors go a long way to it's stability.
      There might be a reverse pendulum effect at play with the water column constantly being in contact with the ground.

Like so it nearly keeps a cycle as the water hits the ground but stable is a no. I'm pegging its just the hoses holding the rig in place as the hose is putting out energy back where you holding it as well what comes out the nozel.

    Regarding flour vs. non-dairy coffee creamer:
    "On the evening of May 2, 1878, the Washburn A Mill exploded in a fireball, hurling debris hundreds of feet into the air. In a matter of seconds, a series of thunderous explosions-heard ten miles away in St. Paul-destroyed what had been Minneapolis' largest industrial building, and the largest mill in the world, along with several adjacent flour mills. [...] Fourteen men who made up the night crew arrived. An hour later, three deafening explosions echoed out, reverberating in waves all over town. All fourteen workers were killed. Within minutes, the fire had spread to the adjacent Diamond and Humboldt mills. They also exploded, killing four more workers. The city's fire department worked all night to contain the fire. Their efforts were futile. The intense heat prevented firefighters from setting up rigs and hoses close enough to the site to have much impact."
    Beat that, coffee creamer!

    • @MrMarinus18
      @MrMarinus18 6 місяців тому

      Fluor is indeed very powerful but coffee creamer is even more powerful. The difference is volume.
      There was an explosion in the imperial sugar factory in 1990 that was even stronger.

    Regarding umbrellas and fainting goats:
    To scare animals with an umbrella, you need to trust that the umbrella will do the job, and refrain from hopping and dancing around like a lunatic, in an attempt to "help" the umbrella be more scary. It's the completely innocuous, commonplace opening of the umbrella, from fully folded to fully spread, in a single, smooth motion, while the umbrella is pointed towards them, that animals find terrifying.
    The psychology is exactly the same as with the panic in the very first movie theaters, when they showed a train coming straight at the camera, and the audience reflexively fled for fear of being run over; they knew it was an illusion, but still couldn't keep from panicking. What they actually saw, was a small, two dimensional figure that grew rapidly sideways, giving the impression that it was a huge, three dimensional object hurtling towards them. An umbrella opening in your direction is very much like that, especially if you've never before seen an umbrella being opened, and have no realization that it's not a regular stick, but a mechanical device.
    I've never found a video of it, not even on UA-cam, but, word has it, even wild lions can be scared off with an umbrella.

    • @nicholascrow8133
      @nicholascrow8133 6 місяців тому +1

      But they do show a clip of the farmer waving the umbrella around in the air causing the goats to faint.
      It's much simpler than you're thinking, it's just a case of not all goats fainting all the time, as they state in the conclusion.

    25:22 That's actually wrong. Sound travels faster through denser media. Which is why you first see an explosion (speed of light), then sense the ground rumbling and shortly after that hear it. The correct explanation is that due to the lighter than air helium, your vocal cords are able to vibrate faster, thus generating a higher pitched sound and vice versa with the very dense sulfur hexafluoride.
    And concerning the topic of viral videos, these days, almost all of them are fake these days... Or just stupid... Videos with real facts already got posted and even if new, they sadly get almost no views and therefore punished by the algorithm...
