Giant Mouse Trap [Smashes Everything]

- Join the science discord! / discord Ive got a bit of a Raccoon problem at my house… I built something to fix the problem. It breaks multiple local ordinances and a few international treaties, but I give you THE GIANT MOUSETRAP! It took over 3 weeks to build and cost around $360 to build, with the main expenses being the winch, and the multiple pipe fittings to adapt the springs to the bar.

Every time I wound it up, something broke. Originally i built it to use garage door springs, but they were not strong enough. Once I switched to coil springs stuff started breaking.
First it was the bar, which bent, and needed corner enforcement's welded on.
Then the 'axel' running down the center of the springs bent, so I needed to add hardware to counteract the winch pulling on it.
Next, the springs themselves broke. I learned something about trying to weld tempered steel.. It just creates stresses and the weld was much more brittle (harder) than the spring steel. I had to re-weld it and heat up the spring up to about 3 inches from the weld, this created a more gradual slope of hardness, so the spring bent where i welded instead of snapping.
Then the bar bent in the middle, so I had to weld a 4' long 1" corner to it.
Finally, the arms of the bar are flexing when I tighten the springs too much, but I think this is okay, for now! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
He said he wasn't going to be smashing any raccoons today but he didn't say anything about tomorrow or the next day or the next day after!
James The Jamm lol soo true 😂😂
James The Jamm Or tonight.
James The Jamm or the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day or the next day
BalakeaTheBoss 1 And the next day, and the next day, and the next day, and the next day...
Sebastien Dean ...and the next day, and the next, and the next after that, and the day that's next after the next... o.o
Can you imagine if this dude was a kid in a "Home Alone" scenario? Holy bloodbath
god no
crap
His name is Kevin too lol
Maybe he could set traps throughout his house for a christmas special using things like this from previous videos
Sry Officer, I REALLY didnt mean to kill him!... just funily disfiguring him.. :)
The PETA guys had a roller coaster of anxiety watching this.
lmao
@SuperNinja's Personal Channel not even most animal rights activists like peta. they're so extreme they don't even think people should be able to own pets, most animal rights people disagree. they kill more healthy animals than a lot of farms
You guys are all idiots.
We found a PETA member☝☝
If you ask me, PETA should be banned from receiving federal funds, and classified as a non-profit permanently.
"Don't you think that's a bit overkill for a rat?"
"Nah"
Not in NY lol
Rats are hardy bastards
Not in Florida
that could have been a bear trap
I'll buy two, one for the front door and one for the back. That should take care of the taller rats.
We all know as soon as the video cuts, this guy launched about 30 raccoons.
Drake Varvaxtra dude you could turn it into a catapult
Solomon Tellez ikr 😂
lmao
Launched straight into the ground.
+Rick LeRoy splat
"florida man launches raccoon with huge mouse trap"
You seen graystillplays
Me too 😂
Halogod123 bentz He really has lol
Tomorrow's news
Flies into Calgary backyard
4:48 “I smashed everything smashable except that raccoon” 💀
This can be interpreted in 2 ways...
At least she was still all right at the end of the video
which I'm not allowed smash 💀
AYO 😳📸
@@tordiversen8611 no
Had a teacher mentioned they built catapults in college. A girl had one her dad helped with. All metal. She stood to close and it lobbed her jaw off. She was semi okay after, but this story is all I could think about after seeing this.
Glad you have your jaw man.
i lmao when you started explaining the oobleck part i mean i was like fuck no another time
bxerra Same
I've always wanted a human-sized mousetrap. For research.
Discombobulated Hamster yeaaaaaah... research...
I bet
If your in America put a hamburger on it
What type of research you talkin about their. Auhha. Uha. Uha Uha. Hmmmmm😳
@@jdthebomb secret research 😁
Sandra calls the fire department:" Yes, it happened again. I don't know how he keeps getting caught in his own human sized mouse trap"
3:36 I love how the head with the hard hat just gets goomba mashed and it pops back up like nothing happened
"Don't worry guys, were not gonna be smashing any raccoons today"
"Today"
Tomorrow?

Votix her girlfriend would like him cheat on her
Votix Talk to lunkers TV I'm sure he caught his raccoons.

"We wont smash any raccoons today" 4:53 *thinks about it*
Azar Uchiha cool
With all this TH-cam drama I'm glad to know I can count on backyard scientist to always bring the entertainment. Thanks dude
That's right. Quality scientific content, very entertaining.
I'd send bitcoins if I had some lol
Isaac Chavez and idubbztv
Isaac Chavez how do you get a rat confused with a raccoon
Dr. StickFigure- If you find some, just sayin...

TheBackyardScientist I tried once to get bitcoins on Reddit to pay for my medical school loans. People weren't so nice 😭
4:00 Ironically, this reminds me of those videos where they give cotton candy to raccoons.
I like how he is so comfortable sitting on it while it’s armed
He’d be launched into Georgia if it went off.
Not smashing any raccoons today, but tomorrow is a different story.
Wear protection :v
3:17 "This guy doesn't even-"
*Falls apart*
Died.
I've seen home alone, don't ever break into this mans house...Unless you want your kneecaps turned inside out
2:02 *Intense, extremely pained screams of men everywhere*
if one more person tries linking to their fidget spinner channel in the comments im banning you, and/or catapulting you from the mousetrap.
Lookin at you Tom Bannon ༼ つ ͠° ͟ ͟ʖ ͡° ༽つ
TheBackyardScientist Lol
TheBackyardScientist lmao
+TheBackyardScientist what if I link ur channel 😏
Fidget Spinner channels are a thing? Why are these a thing?
4:48 *Me after leaving the club*
BrUh
StOp
PlEaSe
Smash the racoon
lol
5:26 the way she holds that cup gives me anxiety. 😢
I remember doing mouse trap cars in school. A huge one would be awesome!
4:50 : ive smashed everything thats smashable...
Except for that racoon..
*NI99A WAT*
have you seen my dog?
french croissant no
What he doesn't know is that I already smashed that racoon
Fler Games yES
lol
0:20 raccoon jumps out of bush and triggers the trap...
OUCHHHHHHHHHHHHH that must hurt oh wait woulnt it kill it
OWWWCHHHahHahHHahHahahhahahahahajjajahajajajajajajajhahahahahah
Ahahahahah
Thats what u get u dirty bastard
The metalic booming, crushing, and reverberating sound it makes whenever it goes off is prime sound design material for movies or stuff.
I would like to know the actual speed of this on impact. An average speed is given of 42mph. However because the springs are exerting a force at all positions the trap bar is accelerating along its travelled circumference. It looks like it is cruising.
If it has constant acceleration you can work out its final velocity.
This channel honestly has the best experiment videos ever!
hahahah
yes absolutely
he will be one of the best ppl to be with in a zombie a
pocalypse
Ever seen Primitive Survival channel?
SkullGamer my,
5:43
"Back to the drawing board."
"H-"
Is it wrong I imagined it splattering the raccoon and couldn't stop laughing?
"Back to the drawing board" "Okay that's all for this video"
dude you made me laugh so hard when the balloon fell apart
That balloon fell apart just like my juice over me when I saw that 😂
3:59 NAAAUGHW!
Same
*NOOO*
Cheez, the foam head being completely smashed under the hard hat was so unexpectedly hilarious. jajajaja
Everybody gansta till Kevin pulls up with the giant mousetrap catapult
Protection glasses should be your "number one priority" man...
Mario I/O Keep your voice down or else the Crazy Russian Hacker will sue him.
Mario I/O lol
Is nobody gonna talk about how he’s literally sitting in the mouse trap
Marc rodriguez it’s not tightened down it wouldn’t matter
exactly
Marc rodriguez thank you that’s what I was thinking
He showed you its not armed until the winch is turned on though.
You can tell by the curve of the arms if the trap is fully tensioned or not. When he's playing with that balloon, it's clearly not.
My first video of the backyard scientist when I was 5 years old 😢 nostalgia 😢
3:23 BOING!
4:00 i lost it when she called him retarted 😂😂😂😂
Oro probably got demonetized for saying that lmao
AND YET, IT IS TRUTH !
Lol what that's not what she said 😂 u deaf
YureHiiro what did she say then??
Same 🤣🤣
Shawn woods needs to review this
Hentai.
I just sent him a link before I came across your comment! LOL!
I labeled it Gallagher meets Shawn! LOL!
Today for mousetrap monday…
Same
let's test it in the barn and see if we can catch some mice...
Libor Tinka - More like: Let's test it in the barn and see if we can catch some capybara.
This is awesome! I've been making a mini series in slow motion with mousetraps! You're doing the macro version! Cool work, keep it up.
I laughed so hard when the mousetrap hit the first guy’s head twice in a row 😂
We're not going to be smashing any raccoons "today"...
You forgot to smash that like button
:/ really...
That's so punny😂😂
Mooza Morth omg yes huge missed opportunity :) this comment made my day
Mooza Morth hahaha 😂😂😂
Mooza Mort
"dont worry guys we are not gonna be smashing any raccoons today"
*woah hol up partner*
The raccoon screaming in the end killed me
The all new human trap! Money works as a great bait!
Nomadic Cheese
That would be a great way to catch Hillary, or Obozo!!!
[sigh] I was smiling and laughing over this video, innocently enjoying the creativity of humanity, momentarily oblivious to the bitterness of humanity. Then BAM -- one of those sad people who obsesses on politics with every waking moment comes along to ruin it. :-( Please, please, please go someplace where your boring comments are at least relevant. Thank you.
So it's just a comment -- mine was just a comment. Chill? I was enjoying a giant mouse trap! (see: "smiling and laughing"). :-D That's pretty chill. But really, no matter what the topic -- it could be cars, computers, or kittens -- someone has to give us their political two cents, no matter how awkwardly forced and hackneyed. I'm not angry, just *weary* of it. It doesn't even make enough sense to be funny.
How to catch Mr. Krabs
did you smash your wife, and you don't need a trap for that
4:00 Best part. 😂
You never fail to make me laugh.
4:01 since I was a kid, I watched this for the first time and when he accidentally pops the balloon and he yells “no” it makes me laugh.
“NO!” - The backyard science
I instantly changed my mind about smashing the volcano when it actually happened, it was still so beautiful though
Is this what humanity has become...
blowing away pieces of watermelon with a leaf blower?
The Batman I'm currently on the moon right now.
CaptainKerbal you mean the mün
Put blades on the metal bar that swings so it can chop things
Put a knife on it, attach rockets to the trap arm; and then superheat the whole thing.
Patrick Hector haha, yeah😂
-wonders what he can do to get rid of the racoons.
-places a full course meal outside for them.
1:45 - that assumes the speed is linear for the second half; I wouldn't have trouble believing it were still accelerating. Using the displacement from acceleration formula, I get 84mph
Nerd
SMASH the like button if you saw the cute raccoon at the end!
TheBackyardScientist 3.14 is pi right I saw it in the video
WHO LIKES TOUHOU
i luv him!
TheBackyardScientist hoi
test a human body :D
It turned out amazing!
+Grant Thompson - "The King of Random" thank you!
Grant Thompson - "The King of Random" Hey you two, The channels you host respectively are quite interesting and bring a lot to this site. Please continue to do good work. I would be inexplicably exited but I talk with major TH-camrs so often now it's almost lost it's fun. Auf Wiedersehen
OMG GRANT I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL
you guys should do some.vids together
Grant Thompson - "The King of Random" hi I am a subscriber to both you and the backyard scientist
Yea that will obliterate raccoons like a charm... In a not so charming way
My anxiety when sat right in front of the trap: 📈📈📈📈📈📈
Do you think it'll work on the Kardashians ? 🤔
mrbostonian93 too much plastic
No. Silicon is too rubbery to break :D
*No Fruit was Harmed in the making of this video*
VerySwag Commenter Save the fruit, smash the raccoons
4:02. Her reaction may be my favorite part of any BYS video lmao
Imagine trying to breaking into his house and setting that thing off its an alarm and a home security system
When he pops the balloon by accident.😂
The Gaming Keith You're*
BricksForDays he was quoting the guy's wife
I know, it was still wrong though.
I had a raccoon problem a few years back. Those suckers are super smart and hard to catch. Had to smoke them out from my attic, then close the entrance so they don't re-enter. The male ended up killing the baby raccoon because it thought the poison trap was from it. This ended with the mother fighting the male. She pooped herself in my pool (that was emptied to be painted). I could almost hear the John Cena music during their fight.
thanks I enjoyed your story. Raccoons are famous for washing all their food in water before eating it, and pooping in water. Ps they love nilla wafers, its their favorite.
Gotta develop a trap in the shape of a nilla wafer then...
same but a home made land mine did the job quick....no it didnt blow it to smithereans it was for airsoft so it scared the crap out of it
u must be from pom poco lol are u really human?
that story wouldv won an award
Everybody gangsta tells something literally goes bang in the night
5:30 When you buy your traps from the same place Wile E does
I respected you up until the catapult comment. Everyone knows the trebuchet is the superior siege weapon. Capable of launching a 90kg object over 300m.
Imagine how rightly you could end opponents if you loaded it with a pommel!
Kain Yusanagi #skallagrim
Chad Worthy well it's not a Trebuchet it is a catapult. And I think both both would deal with raccoon and or watermelons
Chad Worthy War robots reference?
Alok, it can't be a war robots reference, that trebuchet has a range of 1500m I believe. No details on the weight of the plasma fired.
3:59 Congratulations, you played yourself
hahaha😅😅😅
Take this W
4:47 " i wanna keep smashing stuff, but I already smashed everything that's smashable"
I accidentally thought of the word “slammering-“ slamming and hammering, and I believe it fits with this absolute monster of a mousetrap.
I'm pretty sure that can kill a human
Yes
You are 100% right
Rahul Acharya a coconut is apparently as durable as a human skull.your head would be obliterated.
Rahul Acharya pretty sure😂
Do u kno de wae it will decimate your organs
0:20 oh thank god, I was worried for a second
haha
I love how Kevin smacked it once again even after the balloon had split and even took him a second to realize his balloon had popped 😆😆
Giant mouse: (Roars like a lion)
The Backyard Scientist: BRING IT ON!
i enjoyed more the part when the racoon was eating
Zaho fettah same it was cute
I wanna keep smashing stuff but I've already smashed everything that's smashable
TheBackyardScientist2017
BunnyMouse Mommy Lemme smash
BunnyMouse Mommy "except for my girlfriend, she wont let me smash ;_;
I don't know what I was expecting but I was shocked at how much power this had
This is awesome. I need a few of these around my property to keep unwanted visitors out lol
"Smashed everything that's smashable" ? Damn son! tell me your secrets!!!
lel I get it
Im Coyote Peterson and im about to enter the smash zone with a racoon trap.
*EDIT:WEW that amount of likes*
this killed me
WindBladeYT the funny part is that he would somehow survive it
xDRE4MC4TCHERx then mark would go "did it get ya"
"Does it hurt?"
Be brave, stay wild
Such a wholesome ending😄😄
You put the whole some
That first smash was awesome
2:44 so good he turned French
OH HON HON HON
Lizard813 det iz rascisisi8sisisiisiistszt.
I think I copied your spelling pretty well.
Put a blade on it
Guillotine OuO
Then it's a monster

Guillotines would be so much Cooler!
≧﹏≦
I wanna see a hacksmith, backyard scienteist, and mark rober collaboration
I love humour of this men.
"We will not squeeze any racoon TODAY" XD
We all know he smashed the raccoon
lmaoooo 😂
And he smashed his girl too
...with his penis!
We need a collab with Cody's Lab.
YES! I watch him too!
ᅚᅚ YES
you are so right.
I just like Cody's Lab a lot more because it's more scientific and not geared towards little kids
Yes please do it! :D
When I was 11 I was OBSESSED with mousetraps. Why? I don't f*cking know.
12345 67890 look up worlds strongest mouse on yt
Damn, the Racoons were going to have a feast the night after this....^^ Sugary fruit and soda everywhere :P
5:26 who holds a coffee mug like that LOL
'MURICAAAA
Add859 TankiOnline I
well, appearently she does :P
This comment got a lot of likes, so I think it is important for me to say that I did not try and convey an insulting manner to her but for this comment to be merely a simple joke.
Soz...
*"THEY'RE RACCOONS! YOU CAN'T SMASH RACCOONS!"*
I love you guys xDDD
"we're not gonna be smashing any raccoons today" *checks date* whelp
I can hear Tim Allen grunting when that actuates lol 😁
Can it smash Becky?
Bryson Watson I can 😂
Bryson Watson leemeeshaash XD
nice
Remy , BRUH
No, not enough sticks.

Andre Cortez And this is the top comment. Expected
The company that made that hard hat should sponsor this video
