This was a crazy opportunity and one of best experiences of my life even though it was incredibly stressful. Thank you @MrBeast for letting me spend your money!
@@Ferrari255GTO Well, yeah but then it defeats the point of doing your job "the right" way, aka, on schedule, done properly and cost effective. That is what will make a once client come again for more. If I need to pay you twice the price to do something, I might as well go to someone else willing to do your job at the right price. Corporations have the annual revenue to not give a shit some times. A family business does not. That client got their money's worth and, as shown on the video, was satisfied, to say the least. Not to mention the money that family business earned because of the attitude of the corporation. If corporations did that, every smaller business would not have enough clients to run.
I want to thank all of you for your positive comments about my sister’s company, and my nephews, and my brother in law, they work day in and day out to make huge things happen. It’s so awesome to see Colorado PCB Assembly be recognized on UA-cam. Thank you all!! Thank you William!!
They earned every little bit of praise and more. If they keep the passion they showed in this video then they deserve all the new business that comes of it.
I’m a test engineer at an R&D facility in Colorado. Colorado PCB has been a LIFESAVER! They are the best. Shout out to them coming in clutch on one of the best UA-cam videos ever.

Colorado PCB Assembly is literally 2.5 minutes from my house. I see it everyday on my way to work. So cool to see a small family company play such a big role in a project like this.
I think you can sort of pay them to give a shit, or at least, value their workplace and doing a good job. Mostly by paying them a good wage and treating them decently.
The fact that despite being literally 24 hours from the start of a huge event and not having finished code or assembled any of the machines and still nailed it is an engineering marvel. It's really inspirational. Even in the most stressful situations they accepted what they had and laughed through the pain and didn't give up.
I work in embedded systems, it's unreal you were able to get that quantity of boards assembled in such a short time considering all of the circumstances. Props to Colorado PCB assembly for actually giving a crap and pushing through all of the hiccups with a smile! So glad they were featured in a positive light and I wish them the best!
Ik the older brother in the video he told me about this and it was awesome me and him use to go to middle school together their a great awesome nice family im surpised they took this and did it such little time
Putting aside the stress, it's amazing that you revolutionised the squibs in such a short time. Imagine going from that clunky setup before, to this lightweight and cheaper alternative.
so are you and mr beast now selling squibs for a similar price to production companies or what? i mean you could hire all the work done now that you know all the steps and process
I don't know much about squibs, but I'm pretty sure small explosive blood releasers already exist. The idea behind squibs is a continuous flow of a larg(er) amount of liquid not a short burst.
Even if you assume someone with those skills is making 100k+ a year there was about 5 people on the design creation, at rough math thats about $30k. Even if you assume higher, say $50k for the labor, and William said the 1 set of boards was 20k, and the other company probably charged similarly. Still rough math but maybe under $100k for everything? So half the price to a third to do it themself. They are smart people though and know what they are doing. I mean he mentioned in the video about needing something that anyone could handle. That original squid would have taken so much work to setup for that many people.
The way the the kid at 15:20 walks in and his face immediately lights up when he sees Will, someone he seems to look up to highly, must have been a huge confidence booster after Will's last video showing just how just awful it is to see negative comments and how he's been feeling.

First time watcher, I watched the video all the way through and was at the edge of my seat the entire time. This is captivating story telling at its finest. I was so stressed out watching that I can't imagine what it must've felt for everyone involved here. Props for accomplishing it.
This is MASTERCLASS. You assembled a team, prototyped, tested, sourced manufacturers, and deployed a multi-disciplinary product in massive quantity SUCCESSFULLY IN 3 WEEKS. Fucking god tier. Well done.
Much better than advanced Circuits. Never used Colorado pcb, but I spent a lot of Elon musks money on disappointment from advanced Circuits. Don't waste your time and money.
It's insane that Mr. Beast spent so much money on production and personell, and left the entire engineering that is the core of the entire project to one dude with a tight budget and deadline. That's what it's like to be an engineer....
considering that was just the first game. And how he also needed to have a set, uniforms, cameras, custom props and editing for the whole thing - it was pretty reasonable of him to delegate the sub-projects to other people and give them a portion of the budget to use. And its a bit disingenuous to say he gave the project to "one dude", since he also gave the one dude the budget to hire more people to further split the workload.
he could have, but to be fair it would have been unnecessary *especially* if the big company did their job with the pcbs n stuff. if things worked how they should have then william would have had plenty of time to spare, plus he got paid plenty which is probably why he was fine with spending money if not just spent mr beasts money anyways@@TheRadiolarianKobold
@@TheRadiolarianKobold whats the point of wasting so much money when it could go towards videos? If they couldve just bought them they would have not needed to hire anyone. This way they not only got content and work for other people as well as supporting small businesses.
@@SheIITear Because pulling this off in 3 weeks is ridiculously unrealistic (also he should have just done his original idea and used a regulator instead of piercing the cans instead of pretending that designing, working out the kinks, and then assembling a custom board in under 3 weeks was going to happen). I know it's hard to know how much of a mess it really was because he's exaggerating for content, but this video also paints a picture of somebody who really, really, really shouldn't have been put in charge of this. Expecting a supplier to do anything that isn't putting parts in a box and shipping it to be done in under a month is just a mistake. At work I've spent a hell of a lot more than $20k just for it to take 3 weeks to actually talk to a human when things go wrong. It's just life when you're not a Walmart. You're their 200th priority.
Way to make it happen! Colorado pcb assembly seems like a really cool place. I used to work somewhere similar, except the pick and place machine was me
There's something weirdly addictive about this video, I've watched it 6 or 7 times. It's the editing, or the way the jokes land, or the hero's journey.... Incredible storytelling, one of my favorite vids.
Same,, I honestly want to cry with him at points, like you really feel that intensity just building building building until the last 20 seconds of the video. It’s crazy how rewarding it feels when I’m not even there. Super relieving, and just an enjoyable watch regardless.
I just rewatched it for the 10th time probably, and I think the reason why is that this is such a validating experience to see as an engineer. I think there have been times in the career of every engineer where they have felt like this, but it’s not something that’s often mentioned I feel. So to see Will go through this makes me feel validated for having moments like this
What that company did to you is fucking insane. I.. genuinely am at a loss for how they are even able to function if that's how they treat their customers. Colorado PCB truly deserves all the love they can get.
@15:40 I realized the PCB came from 4pcb And I can also confirmed that I had a terrible experience with them. Completely busted their delivery timeline. They promise you the world, take your payment and then underdeliver
@@njuta Unfortunately, thoses compagnies know that they are the only or part of the only compagnies that can deliver that many boards in such a short time. So they don't care bc they know people will come back anyways. It's like when we complain abt youtube or twitch basically
As someone who works in the Electronics industry, this is absolutely insane. Half of these problems are things that CONSTANTLY happen to HUGE companies, but I cannot imagine how stressful that must have been, as I wouldnt care about disappointing my boss.....id care about disappointing Mr. Beast though. Many props to you my man
i actually thought the video was just gonna end after they started REINVENTING AND INNOVATING A INTEGRAL PART OF THE FILM INDUSTRY. actual madlad glad he's back
This is actually a batshit insanely short timeframe to design, test and manufacture a product like this from scratch. It took me 20 minutes to even realize that you weren't joking. Holy shit.
Same thing I was thinking 3 weeks to do all that for almost 500 boards that’s ridiculous and if they had more time for testing and bug fixes I bet that 2 percent fail would have been 0. Like you said they better have been paid well for what they went through.
@@TryPuttingItInRice This is the kind of job where you can't be paid well enough for IMO the amount of stress this causes a person is more than what it takes for some people to end up in a psychiatric hospital on suicide watch.
@@TerrenceCallahan Your strong and manly and cool way of thinking is what leads to an ever rising statistic of burn outs and the mental health epidemics and a fundamentally unhealthy work life balance. You may be all strong but if your heart gives out by 50, what was it all for?
this has always been one of my favorite videos because it features a ton of cool, genuine people, but finding out these time constraints and stress levels are the norm for these productions after the dogpack vids is kinda wild, really do wish the best for everybody who's had to go through anything like this on the regular
"You can pay people to do a job, but you can't pay people to give a shit." -William Osman There is so much wisdom in this video, but this is my favorite takeaway! Glad you're doing so much better, my dude!
"The small family owned company stepped in when a giant corporation failed us" [21:10] You can buy service, but you can't buy passion _And when you're too big to fail. The warmth of your heart seeps out while the cold draws near_
Can we take a moment to appreciate the very first words this man said? "You can't get rid of me that easily". After watching his last vid it's a relief to hear those words. Thank you William
I'm glad he's back, but it's very funny to hear "Were you wondering why my video is 4 months late?" Like...no dude, you said you were done UA-cam. Pretty sure everyone just thought....that you were done UA-cam.
anyone else get an unsettling feeling regarding mrbeast when they first saw this? i didn't know much about the guy and reserved judgement bc eh, but i didn't really love how he put these incredibly talented people into an insanely high stakes situation practically last minute to make content and basically treated this stress fever dream like a favor bc it's always a favor to be complimented by youtube's golden goose. felt terrible for osman & co when i watched this, i remember it made me not wanna watch the beast video bc the treatment was just upsetting. never enjoy the "i always knew" type comments when bad stuff comes out abt people. i didn't "always know" anything. but i vividly remember being unnerved by the treatment here
At least the part where they were called to do a test run but were instead given a long tour because the production was not ready left a bad taste in my mouth.
Exactly my experience too. This video left a bad taste in my mouth about Mr. Beast to the point I wasn't surprised once stuff really started coming out about him. I did still try to be on his side at the beginning, but now it's bad. But of course, this isn't going to end the Mr. Beast channel. He's too big at this point, nothing can really stop him unless his money from youtube and wherever the heck else he gets money gets cut off. Which it never will.
MrBeast really wanted a machine that really shoot people paintball. lol It's good that William didn't do it, but made the squib instead as it is safer.
I see a trend where bigger companies don't care about "small" orders and almost neglect them. At the same time, these orders are huge for less known companies and they see it as opportunity to grow, so they're passionate about it
Everyone give "Colorado pcb assembly" some love, the amount of stress and work that mr.breast just shugged off for these pcbs is just laughable, what a job William glad your relaxing.
Having heard bits and pieces of this third hand from Allen, it was awesome seeing the whole story unfold. Great video Billy! Not nearly as exciting, lengthy, or stressful, but I too almost ruined a Mr. Beast video last week... Who would of thought giving him lightsabers was a bad idea!
As someone who works for CircuitHub, which is also a rapid prototyping company that builds boards, I knew *exactly* the kind of pain William was going through. Every single detail. Even the parts with Digikey individually packing parts in individual bags when they need to be on a strip. Absolute nightmare. Kudos to Colorado PCB for being ontop of building the boards!
Colorado has a lot of aerospace industry, a lot of these are under ITAR restrictions meaning that they can't have anything built outside of the US. There also is just a lot of need for small custom prototyping as well.
@@michaelmolter8828 even in school they do. I once finished such a project 15 seconds before the deadline. That was... stressful. I would have almost thrown up afterwards. Just like William.
I was so happy to see everything that went wrong actually in the video it shows how usually everything does go wrong in any engendering project and keep in mind that he had over 7 hours of footage there were probable so many other things that happened and went wrong but they could fit it all
This video is so funny and inspirational, I've rewatched this every day for the past 4 days. Your tenacity and perseverance in the face of this crazy challenge is something special. William Osman is a treasure and deserves everything good in the world.
I could feel myself getting stressed just watching this. Although, sometimes a looming deadline is the magic you need to get a project done, even if it's bad for your long-term health. Colorado PCB assembly were definitely the real MVPs. Leave it to small, family-owned businesses to actually give a shit about their customers.
I love this video on a higher level. - it showed passion for small family businesses - it showed how 'improbable' things can be achieved if the motivation and incentive are high enough - it made the 'get it done' cascade so realistic. From 1 Guy a la mr beast to the contractor Willima to supporting parties (co-engineers) and printing corps. All for like 5% of a massive production xD love it.
It also showed that having a very large budget and a workforce of unpaid interns can get most tasks accomplished with varying degrees of success and only slight psychological damage.
5% OF A MASSIVE number, and his own revenue for this video. Im also usually the last guy to count exposure as payment but even AK guy became the "Demo Guy" for Mrbeast. Like anybody who works with him gets a larger following. This is the rare case where exposure acted as partial payment.
Came from Trash Taste after hearing about this video on there. This video is an experience! The amount of planning and production that went into making so many of the squibs is awe inspiring. I knew the squid game video was big but never knew so much went into everything. Shoutout to that family coming in clutch and helping make the boards
Comparing that larger company to Colorado PCB Assembly is proof that you can pay people to do a job but you can't pay them to give a shit. Colorado PCB Assembly deserves all the love in the world!
@@rambosandman4088 Yep I visited their website and I wanted to see if I could leave a free 5 star review [because they clearly give that quality] and sadly I didnt see an option. I assume many other probably did the same thing! Have a nice day!
23:13 That is probably one of the most accurate depictions of a young programmer I have ever seen. Being blamed for his buggy code, saying "I warned you!" in a voice somewhere in between sobbing and laughing his ass off. Truly beautiful.
I feel that the signs were there, the overworking of the scientists not being rewarded enough. evidenced by the fact William needed another sponsorship with skillshare.
When it got to the part where the fan came in clutch with his families company I honestly started to tear up a bit it was like a one in a million chance that would happen. Amazing video will.
Me in engineering school: "I can't wait to finish school so that I can get a normal day job and stop pulling all nighters to finish projects..." William Osman, a real engineer: 💀
Tbh after all the drama, this video is pretty telling. He wanted 456 squibs in 3 weeks, and just left the science people to work nearly 24 hrs a day for those 3 weeks like Christ. He could’ve easily delayed the event or even scheduled it to where everything could’ve been done and ready before the event.
One of the best and most anxiety inducing videos that I've ever watched, I didn't even noticed that it's 30 minutes long, way to go William, you guys did an amazing job and put a huge effort. Really impressive.
Having been in a situation where I had a week to get a really big project done and slept like 2 hours every other day, I could feel the stress you were feeling through the screen. Really good fucking work. Not everyone will fully appreciate how much cortisol and adrenaline you have to burn through to get this kind of project done.
So happy to have you back! I hope you and the science boyz keep up with Safety Third, the first and only podcast I've ever looked forward to every episode. signed, fanboi.
Colorado PCB Assembly is truly a testament to good work ethic, review bomb these guys with 5 stars, leave some nice words, it's the LEAST they deserve.
Not that the work wasn't great. William and his friends/colleagues did a great job considering how fast they had to figure things out. But Mr.Beast definitefely hoped to pay in exposure, rather than hiring an actual company to build such a specific (and potentially costly) product.
they are SO getting, or going to get so much more work simply because I am pretty sure a lot of people of this channel, watch inspired of osmans wacky stuff, and also some do their own things as well, like, this is just GREAT advertisement technically, imo XD! literally saying they saved the day, because THEY DID, and then obviously a bunch of people are gonna want to, if they can, go through this family for some things XD!
@@JK8 Did you even watch the video? It wasn't the Colorado company that screwed that up...they stepped up and helped fix the issues after the big company f-ed up.
Us hardware and software engineers could relate to this and actually got second-hand stress from this video. You won't believe how happy I am seeing William smiling at the end
It says what a great guy he must be for people to want to step up and assist an insane project like this. Like you don't do stuff like this for someone unless they're your bro.
After watching many of Michael Reeves and William’s videos , I’m starting to think I was right not choosing the engineering career So I decided to choose something easy like Architecture
lol this video is the most incredible real true example of how frc goes normally, can't imagine how actual engineering is but it's a lot like 30 highschoolers and mentors making a competition robot in a month
This was a crazy opportunity and one of best experiences of my life even though it was incredibly stressful. Thank you @MrBeast for letting me spend your money!

And its a bit disingenuous to say he gave the project to "one dude", since he also gave the one dude the budget to hire more people to further split the workload.
@@freddy4603 pretty sure mr beast would've been able to give william the money to buy all of the premade squibs
he could have, but to be fair it would have been unnecessary *especially* if the big company did their job with the pcbs n stuff. if things worked how they should have then william would have had plenty of time to spare, plus he got paid plenty which is probably why he was fine with spending money if not just spent mr beasts money anyways@@TheRadiolarianKobold
@@TheRadiolarianKobold whats the point of wasting so much money when it could go towards videos? If they couldve just bought them they would have not needed to hire anyone. This way they not only got content and work for other people as well as supporting small businesses.
@@SheIITear Because pulling this off in 3 weeks is ridiculously unrealistic (also he should have just done his original idea and used a regulator instead of piercing the cans instead of pretending that designing, working out the kinks, and then assembling a custom board in under 3 weeks was going to happen).
I know it's hard to know how much of a mess it really was because he's exaggerating for content, but this video also paints a picture of somebody who really, really, really shouldn't have been put in charge of this. Expecting a supplier to do anything that isn't putting parts in a box and shipping it to be done in under a month is just a mistake. At work I've spent a hell of a lot more than $20k just for it to take 3 weeks to actually talk to a human when things go wrong. It's just life when you're not a Walmart. You're their 200th priority.

There's something weirdly addictive about this video, I've watched it 6 or 7 times. It's the editing, or the way the jokes land, or the hero's journey.... Incredible storytelling, one of my favorite vids.
Just rewatched it for probably the 5th time. It's great.
Right? Seeing Will super stressed but still completing the project in time never stops being satisfying for some reason
Same,, I honestly want to cry with him at points, like you really feel that intensity just building building building until the last 20 seconds of the video. It’s crazy how rewarding it feels when I’m not even there. Super relieving, and just an enjoyable watch regardless.
I just rewatched it for the 10th time probably, and I think the reason why is that this is such a validating experience to see as an engineer. I think there have been times in the career of every engineer where they have felt like this, but it’s not something that’s often mentioned I feel. So to see Will go through this makes me feel validated for having moments like this
This is quite possibly one of the best story videos on UA-cam. Mr Beast needs to give you guys a fucking bonus.
Needs to give that shop a bonus lol

I'm glad he's back, but it's very funny to hear "Were you wondering why my video is 4 months late?"
Like...no dude, you said you were done UA-cam. Pretty sure everyone just thought....that you were done UA-cam.
So glad hes back.
anyone else get an unsettling feeling regarding mrbeast when they first saw this? i didn't know much about the guy and reserved judgement bc eh, but i didn't really love how he put these incredibly talented people into an insanely high stakes situation practically last minute to make content and basically treated this stress fever dream like a favor bc it's always a favor to be complimented by youtube's golden goose. felt terrible for osman & co when i watched this, i remember it made me not wanna watch the beast video bc the treatment was just upsetting.
never enjoy the "i always knew" type comments when bad stuff comes out abt people. i didn't "always know" anything. but i vividly remember being unnerved by the treatment here
At least the part where they were called to do a test run but were instead given a long tour because the production was not ready left a bad taste in my mouth.
Exactly my experience too. This video left a bad taste in my mouth about Mr. Beast to the point I wasn't surprised once stuff really started coming out about him. I did still try to be on his side at the beginning, but now it's bad. But of course, this isn't going to end the Mr. Beast channel. He's too big at this point, nothing can really stop him unless his money from youtube and wherever the heck else he gets money gets cut off. Which it never will.
MrBeast really wanted a machine that really shoot people paintball. lol It's good that William didn't do it, but made the squib instead as it is safer.
I still can't believe a company as large as Advanced Circuits couldn't make an order like that. Good on Colorado PCB!
I see a trend where bigger companies don't care about "small" orders and almost neglect them.
At the same time, these orders are huge for less known companies and they see it as opportunity to grow, so they're passionate about it

As someone who works for CircuitHub, which is also a rapid prototyping company that builds boards, I knew *exactly* the kind of pain William was going through. Every single detail. Even the parts with Digikey individually packing parts in individual bags when they need to be on a strip. Absolute nightmare. Kudos to Colorado PCB for being ontop of building the boards!
I didn't even realize there are small PCB assembly companies out there, let alone family-owned ones. Very very cool! Way to go Colorado PCB Assembly!
@mikea hiooi what?
Colorado has a lot of aerospace industry, a lot of these are under ITAR restrictions meaning that they can't have anything built outside of the US. There also is just a lot of need for small custom prototyping as well.
I’ve never seen something so perfectly portray the engineering process, amazing job guys
That is exactly what I was thinking lol... every major group engineering project I've been on has went like this
Outside of school, they all go like this too lol.
@@michaelmolter8828 even in school they do. I once finished such a project 15 seconds before the deadline. That was... stressful. I would have almost thrown up afterwards. Just like William.
Being so stressed you want to throw up, but once it's finished you're like "Good job team! Let's never do that again." Until next week.
I was so happy to see everything that went wrong actually in the video it shows how usually everything does go wrong in any engendering project and keep in mind that he had over 7 hours of footage there were probable so many other things that happened and went wrong but they could fit it all
Wow… I hope Colorado PCB Assembly gets soooo much business from this. They literally saved the day
This video is so funny and inspirational, I've rewatched this every day for the past 4 days. Your tenacity and perseverance in the face of this crazy challenge is something special. William Osman is a treasure and deserves everything good in the world.
I could feel myself getting stressed just watching this. Although, sometimes a looming deadline is the magic you need to get a project done, even if it's bad for your long-term health. Colorado PCB assembly were definitely the real MVPs. Leave it to small, family-owned businesses to actually give a shit about their customers.

Nice miata
Really, everyone was an MVP

I love this video on a higher level.
- it showed passion for small family businesses
- it showed how 'improbable' things can be achieved if the motivation and incentive are high enough
- it made the 'get it done' cascade so realistic. From 1 Guy a la mr beast to the contractor Willima to supporting parties (co-engineers) and printing corps.
All for like 5% of a massive production xD love it.
It also showed that having a very large budget and a workforce of unpaid interns can get most tasks accomplished with varying degrees of success and only slight psychological damage.
it was also funny
5% OF A MASSIVE number, and his own revenue for this video. Im also usually the last guy to count exposure as payment but even AK guy became the "Demo Guy" for Mrbeast. Like anybody who works with him gets a larger following. This is the rare case where exposure acted as partial payment.
Came from Trash Taste after hearing about this video on there. This video is an experience! The amount of planning and production that went into making so many of the squibs is awe inspiring. I knew the squid game video was big but never knew so much went into everything. Shoutout to that family coming in clutch and helping make the boards
Comparing that larger company to Colorado PCB Assembly is proof that you can pay people to do a job but you can't pay them to give a shit. Colorado PCB Assembly deserves all the love in the world!
