It's wonderful that your son is involved in what you do. Teaching him a valuable skill. Please don't take this the wrong way, but you don't look old enough to have a child that age. Anyway, great video. Amazing the power packed in such a tiny package. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.
usually when people have kids young the dad/mom leaves or they get rid of the kid via foster or abortion Its nice to know you guys kept the kid and took good care of them! Not to pry into personal lives or anything gsbhnj im bad at compliments
Problem: Microwaves do not have a consistent field inside when running, hence why the turntable is there. It sweeps the contents through the field that has high and low intensity areas. This may be why one of the kernels in the solid block didn't do anything. Second problem: air expands when heated. This may be why the second sample with a void cracked. The pressure goes up until it cracks, with the sudden pressure change making the kernels pop. There are street vendors in some parts of the world that basically have popcorn cannons that use this principle to make shopping bag sized amounts of popcorn by filling the receptacle, closing the valve, heating the entire chamber, then opening the chamber once the pressure gets high enough. There's videos of it on youtube. Kinda cool. Keep up that experimental mindset, though! It's great to discover how this world works with your own two hands.
Never ever microwave anything without the glass plate. It's there for a reason. The microwave oven works by creating electromagnetic standing waves. This results in "hot-spots and cold-spots", or high concentration and low concentration of EM radiation. The plate rotating is causing your food item (or corn-filled resin in your case) to go through both periodically, heating it somewhat evenly. If you place something stationary inside a microwave oven, some points of the object will receive hi doses of EM and other almost zero, causing it to heat up unevenly. The corn not popping but the resin breaking was caused exactly by this.
Yeah, I was wondering about this also. Most likely the same would have happend without the popcorn at all. Just the air expanding by heating up could enough to crack the resin.
What about old microwaves that didn't have the rotating glass plate? Or commercial ones that still don't. I get your reasonings but the plate is really there so the microwave does what it does best and avoid salmonella contamination in food because the plates is easy to clean up.
There is a lot of water trapped in those Kernels. When you heat them it turns that trapped water to steam and that's what gives it the explosive power.
I wonder if the first one would have done the same if it was froze. Either way the first one is still really cool with the crack. Cast it and shape it and it would be pretty neat.
Wonder if it would be different attempting to pop them with a magnifying glass focused in on a kernel? As opposed to heating the entire block in the microwave? I am just curious if the microwaves themselves effect the structural integrity making it more susceptible to fracturing?
Well if you've ever tried to pop corn with a focused beam of light it tends to just burn it without ever popping it. However in this case I dont think heating the resin had anything to do with the outcome. The reason they exploded just came down to steam pressure. Corn holds a ton of water so when you seal it in something like this water will make it explode no matter what
@@youtubeSuckssNow having not tried to pop popcorn in such a manner and not being privy to the chemical components of resin and how microwaves would effect them, I don't feel as if my questions were out of the realm of possibility.
@@Little_Red_Riding_Hoodlum microwaves work by exciting water molecules specifically, so i’d doubt that it affected the resin at all. that said, i’m not sure what else could be affected by those wavelengths of microwaves, so it’s not impossible
Yes, bring son back more! And, this was crazy!!! Very surprised with both but mostly with 2nd one. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie
Was awesome seeing your son in the video with you. I hope he likes and respects what you do. You're entertaining, educational and inspiring, and from the looks of it, a great father. Hats off to you sir.
Jake in every episode. It would be interesting to hear someone else’s point of view on the experiments and bring in different perspectives and ideas. You should be a proud papa
Yea that was great to see you include your son in a video! Definitely want to see more of him in the future! My wife thinks it was very cute to see dad and son working together on a project.
Well of course we want Jake in another video!! It was nice to see him in this one, and he looked like he was really enjoying himself. That was a very cool popcorn experiment! I'm really surprised it cracked the resin.
Very good idea to include your kiddo. I loved the "Proud Dad Moment" caption. Definitely would like to see him in more of your videos, especially if they are kind of newbie tutorials like why you chose what tools and resins you did, as well as basic tips. All this while you are working on a project with him.
I didn't know these videos can get even more wholesome !:D I love watching your videos man I never missed one since I found your channel they are always so calming and fun You guys are awesome
Holy cow that was wild! Who knew a simple little thing like popcorn could bust open resin!! I'd definitely love to see you and your son in more videos!! It's the Dynamic Resin Duo!!
Yay...I look forward to your videos every week. Having taken the lid off a pan where popcorn had not finished popping, I'm not surprised about the forces :D There's no hiding that Jake is your son, he's a younger clone of you!
As a father I fully support Jake being on every future episode. Awesome to see a father and son working together and being happy doing so. Super inspiring. Bless yall and your futures.
That was awesome. I didn't realise how much force a corn kernel has. Great to see your son is carrying on the craft. Could always change your name to Ben and Son's Worx.
I'd like twice if I could. As a father of two who thankfully share some of my interests, I love the inclusion of Jake into your channel to share in the fun. He's a natural as well and came off like a youtube pro already. Well done both :)
It would be cool if you casted something small with a piece of magnifying glass 🔎 so when you turn it it gets bigger and smaller by view! Just an idea 💡 that I think would make a good video!
It's great to see father and son working together and it's also nice to see your boy taking an interest in your work too. Most kids run a mile when asked if they want to help dad work. It's good exposure for him too incase he wants to do his own channel in the future so there's that too. Anyway good luck to you both.
So great having your son with you! I hope to see more of him in future episodes! Popcorn is fascinating. I loved how it was able to take on the resin and win!
That was so much fun! With two creative parents, nice to see Jake joining in! I love creating with my kids: it would be interesting to see what cool ideas he has, so yes please bring him back!
When I mentioned this suggestion...I was picturing a air pocket💭💭💭 like you did with the matches to allow room and air for the kernel to pop.🍿🍿🍿And your laser...the big guy!😎😎😎Wow! I was not expecting a split like that...so much force! Thank you for sharing!💥💥💥
Loved seeing your son in the video. So glad he is interested! That was a crazy experiment. Can believe that popcorn generated so much force! Thanks Ben and Jake!
WOW I've been waiting for this experiment!! Turned out pretty much like I thought it would! And Ben, you have a handsome son!! It's always nice to see children following in their parents footsteps!! I can't wait to see what else you two can create!!
I really loved getting to see you working with your son! You have a great boy there and must be so proud. The dynamic was great. The experiment was fun! Thanks for the cool content as always.
That was wild, I never would have thought popcorn could break apart resin. Thanks for introducing you son to us, it's good to see a father and son work well together. Hope he helps you with another experiment soon.
Very surprising results for sure, and it was really awesome seeing you with your son, that is one thing I built my car themed channel off of, was family interactions. I vote to involve him more if he wants to be apart of it
Lol Can't wait to see what you come up with next. I too was surprised how the resin broke like that. Great to see your son, he is definitely your mini me!💖💖
I think, and this is digging a memory from years ago, that popcorn pops at around 100-130 psi. That was so fun to see! Very cool to see your son working alongside you, it's always great to watch the younger generation working with their hands and getting crafty.
This was grouse, loved the work you two put in it and the way you played off each other was fun! Definitely love to see more with you guys working together!
I gotta say, mate, I've been watching your videos for a little while now and they're all so interesting and fun. Thank you so much for the hours of entertainment I've already accumulated lol! Also, It's so lovely to see Jake involved! Have an amazing weekend, lads!

Thanks Mate 😊 we had him young 👍
I came here to say the same thing!
Agree. They look like brothers
@@BensWorx had him young. Were you 12?
usually when people have kids young the dad/mom leaves or they get rid of the kid via foster or abortion
Its nice to know you guys kept the kid and took good care of them! Not to pry into personal lives or anything gsbhnj im bad at compliments
Fun to meet the son! I vote for more episodes with the both of you. :)
I agree.
They’ve got my vote too!
Lucky thing he's better looking than his dad.
I agree with you it looks very fun
Always love to see parents and kids working together on fun projects like this!
Thankyou 😊
@@BensWorx hey little kid. Go watch paw patrol or SpongeBob there instead of making fake videos there
Loved this Ben, lovely to see a young man interested in crafting and tools! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Mand, it did put a smile on my face 😊
Ben and Jake's worx - can see it happening already.
Your proud dad moment really made me smile :) good job guys
Thanks Will 😊
Wow! That was really impressive 👍🏼 I really enjoyed your son’s participation and would like to see him again.
Thankyou 😊
Of course we wanna see Jake again, he's got the same engaging personality as his old man!
Plus there's nothing better then exploiting family for free labor!
This was so wholesome! Would love to see more father-son projects!

Great video, Ben and Jake! Nice Father, Son teamwork!
I loved watching every minute of this. It’s so wholesome seeing a father son duo video. It really made my night 🌟🌟
Great to have Jake!

Dads doing experimental / maker type stuff with their kids is the best video content around I reckon. Good man.
Thanks Mate
There is a lot of water trapped in those Kernels. When you heat them it turns that trapped water to steam and that's what gives it the explosive power.
Second one could have been from air expansion as well :)
Expansion ration of water to steam is around 1 to 1600
I wonder if the first one would have done the same if it was froze. Either way the first one is still really cool with the crack. Cast it and shape it and it would be pretty neat.
Tiny edible steam explosions.
I love seeing you and your son do stuff like this. More father/son videos, please!

Great to see your son involved. Good bonding time and teaching him good skills.
So cute to see father and son doing mad science experiments. Hope you both take over the world. 👍
Watching your video's on Saturday mornings is always a treat!
Never underestimate the power of expanding water into steam. That’s how popcorn gets its pop.
Yes, bring son back more! And, this was crazy!!! Very surprised with both but mostly with 2nd one. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie
Thanks Vickie
That was a fun Dad and son popcorn experiment. I was completely surprised at the force of the popcorn and what it did to the resin.
Awesome experiment! And so Wonderful to see your son working with you bring back for more!
Steam is an amazingly powerful tool... great video! Grats to your assistant on a job well done!
Thankyou 😊
Nice to have your son involved. Family that works together stay together
it always amazes me how much resin you can shear off. Its like a resin massacre
Soooooo cool to meet your son and see him doin what you are that's so awesome!!!! He's doin a great job really loved seeing you two work together
Hi Ben! Hi Jake! Do we want to see Jake again? Are you kidding?!? I love him already! Plus he debuted in an experiment episode. A great one too!
Thanks Tracy 😊 I’ll let him know
It is so good to see a father and son doing something together. My son works with me and I enjoy it. Thank you for sharing your video.
Great experiment, Ben. It's always great that a son takes interest in what his dad does. Bring him back for more!
Bill
Thanks Bill 😊
It was great for you two to work together. Unbelievable pressure with the popcorn, awesome!
I'm loving the personalized matching shirts! 👍🏼
Thankyou 😊
The experiment was super fun, it rocks to see you working with your son and it looks like you both had a blast doing this video!
Thanks William 😊
Instead of doing 2 halves, what about doing one full piece with the void and then just adding a top, that way there wouldn't be a seam in the middle.
Hi Jake! Loved seeing you two working together... So cool to see
Wasn't expecting the 3 encased fully to do anything. Very cool having your son in the video! 👍
Thanks Mark 😊
Was awesome seeing your son in the video with you. I hope he likes and respects what you do. You're entertaining, educational and inspiring, and from the looks of it, a great father. Hats off to you sir.

Great video Ben. Great to meet your son, Jake, and look forward to seeing him again on future projects.
That was awesome. I didn't realise how much force a corn kernel has. Great to see your son is carrying on the craft. Could always change your name to Ben and Son's Worx.
Thanks Mate 😊👍
Mate that was epic, seeing your lad taking part is totally awesome as well.
Thanks Mike 😊
Ben the mad scientist and his sidekick as they say. Haha.
Ben with Igor, his trusted lab assistant.
always good to see a father and son team doing stuff together and having fun.
Now we'll look forward to the second channel, "Jake'z Works"
I’ll let him know 👍
I'd like twice if I could. As a father of two who thankfully share some of my interests, I love the inclusion of Jake into your channel to share in the fun. He's a natural as well and came off like a youtube pro already. Well done both :)

So great having your son with you! I hope to see more of him in future episodes!
Popcorn is fascinating. I loved how it was able to take on the resin and win!
Jake was a treat, have him on more and maybe eventually he can grow into his own channel.
You should do more videos with your son, its awesome and wholesome to see a father and son working together on a project
Ummm, Ben…how are you old enough to have a son with a beard?! I figured you were around 26 or so. You guys look like you could be brothers!
Awww Thanks Kate 😊 we had him young
This is awesome Jake is a natural hope to see him do some creative stuff with you!
Popcorn contains about 14% water. Water expands 1700 times to become steam.
Proud dad in 3...2...1... They both looked like they had fun and the son seems to have his dad's charisma and smile. Awesome video!
That was so much fun! With two creative parents, nice to see Jake joining in! I love creating with my kids: it would be interesting to see what cool ideas he has, so yes please bring him back!
I would love to see more of your son! The two of you have a great chemistry and you can ell how proud you are of him
Hey a chip off the old acrylic block, good to see your boy in on the action; you guys make a good team.
It was awesome to see your son in the video! I vote he comes back in future episodes!!

Thanks Linda 😊
It’s great to have your son in your videos 👍😃
Loved Jake! Please bring him more often
Definitely want to see more father/son videos. Such a proud papa..can see it in your face
that was awesome ben as always what next i wonder and it would be awesome to see you both experimenting again
Great experiment. And yes, Jake is an awesome assistant! A team bumps up the entertainment value.
The steam that is produced when it pops is really the powerful part
Again, such wild ideas and so much fun to watch!
Have a great day/night!
Brilliant video. Jake certainly takes after his dad. Keep them coming with him. What a brilliant legacy for the future.
Thankyou
WOW I've been waiting for this experiment!! Turned out pretty much like I thought it would!
And Ben, you have a handsome son!! It's always nice to see children following in their parents footsteps!! I can't wait to see what else you two can create!!
I really loved getting to see you working with your son! You have a great boy there and must be so proud. The dynamic was great. The experiment was fun! Thanks for the cool content as always.

That was insane!!! Watching the popcorn just explode in the resin was pretty cool!
Absolutely need more with you both, especially the teaching side of it. Fantastic video as always, thank you guys.
Thanks Brad
Thank you for doing that! It was amazing to watch. Meeting Jake was fun & would love to see you two working together again!
Lol Can't wait to see what you come up with next. I too was surprised how the resin broke like that. Great to see your son, he is definitely your mini me!💖💖
Thanks Connie 😊
I would have never thought to do this myself but am very interested in the outcome. Thanks for posting.
awh I loved this! definitely more Jake!
Cool experiment Dad and Jake, hopefully we see your helper again in the future!
