By doubling the cable you halved the force per side to pull the truck.
You should do the Anchor cable they claim up to 255 pounds
Try a vid with snatch blocks. I really like your vids with weight and tourqe.
You should have gotten your alter ego with the mullet to pull the truck 😂😂👌
Most of the time that metal message is in them
I, as a grown man, would not find entertainment in doing the things Tyler does..but for some reason it is very entertaining to watch another grown man do them lol.
yes
I feel that
its because we enjoy sitting on our ass while seeing something interesting without doing it ourselves.
and not having to think of ideas
Lol.. Rite same here how felt about him. But im still watching his videos
Other TH-camrs:"Im sorry if you can hear that cat in the backround that is ten miles away"
Tyler: INTENSIVE GARBAGE TRUCK NOISE
Or also often the trains passing in his area (which as a train enthousiast I love hearing)
@@mavadelo didnt notice any of that, but the cricket in his knife sharpener video the other day drove me crazy :0
@@blazer87bw If you watch him regular and know the sound you can not miss it. That said, I love US DMU's so I know an SD40-2 (for example) when I hear one lol. I am Dutch, we don't have no engines like that here, in the Netherlands they go zoom instead of vroam.
@@mavadelo I obviously hear it but I don't pay anywhere close attention to it like that damn cricket. Haha
Yeah it happens so much I actually thought he was adding them in for a minute.
To improve your test you should do a cut test / abrasion test as well as a fold test (fold the cable many time in the middle and at the end) to determinate which one is the most heavy duty when it comes to every days uses. A self defense test on Gary would be fun too. Great video as always keep the good work !
Unfortunately because who he is as a person he will not revisit this

@@caidenrandolph7257 let’s face it, I love the guy but even he has admitted he ain’t the brightest….and from the content, I can see that, but he presents it so well it’s impossible not to love lol. Again, no hate towards him, but some of the most obvious things on literally 90% of these videos could have worked better/lasted longer if he had a bit more common sense. But his videos are so good that personally, idc. This was only an answer to your question, so plz don’t be one of the butthurt people who thinks I’m trying to be hurtful
Agreed
Sadly those cables are never extremely strong, as long as they have all the other characteristics in common. To make that cable strong, you would have to put something in that makes it either more rigid, thicker or both. The amazon basics cable did most of the "bang for your buck" stuff right. Can't really ask for more.
Neighbor: Honey, the kid next door is training for the world's strongest man again pulling his truck with a phone cord.
Company: “let’s just claim that this cable can take loads of force and like pull cars and stuff, I mean no ones actually gonna try that lol”
Tyler: “hold my pickle jar”
even if it didn't hold up, they would just say that their claim was for a smart or something
I can’t wait till companies just start reaching out to you to see if their product would be consider “Tyler proof”
Nothing is Tyler proof
@@TylerTube Yet the unpoppable soccer ball was...
They say unbreakable, they say 1500 lbs of force, they also say lifetime warranty. But if they send you one to replace the cable that broke, that second one is NOT covered by the warranty LOL
Idk that feels fair to me. I mean no one’s expecting them to replace an infinite number of cables right? I thought that was fairly standard to not get a second lifetime warranty on a product replaced for free. I have even worse news for you though, you’re probably assuming when a manufacturer says lifetime warranty it means the warranty doesn’t expire due to time. But it does, lifetime warranty means the “life” of the product not yourself. So a lifetime warranty could be just 6 months if they define the product’s expected life as 6 months. It’s deceptive as hell, they do it intentionally just say the time period outright if it expires
I honestly love how in every video you can tell there is a pretty heavy biased before he does the tests and how most of his videos just prove that he is right. It just makes them so much more enjoyable.
10:45 the metal mesh removes electromagnetic interference from other cables nearby, or really anything else. they usually connect the metal bodies of the plugs on both ends together (which are usually grounded). The idea is that any EMI that hits the cable will be picked up by the shielding and then grounded out through the plug's ground. The USB standard requires shielded cabling, so you should always find it. some other types of cables, like an ethernet cable, use twisted pairs and don't need shielding
The reason the Amazon cable snapped clean is that the yellow fibers inside the cable are there to add strength and do not stretch before breaking, when they fail the tension on the cable is sufficient to snap the rest of the cable components.
Tyler we all know that plumbers like to tell us about how flushable wipes aren't flushable
we all know your love for leaving stuff in liquids
how about you leave flushable wipes in water for 30 days. You do a flushable wipe that is unfolded, folded, and crumpled. Plus whatever else you think of.
Flushable wipes. Flushable wipes !!!
This.
Sounds like a cool idea. I’d watch
This
Yes!
Nah
You should leave the cables in Drano for 30 days and see if they still work
No it would not work
@@buzzrunner4686 have you ran the test? Prolly not smart ass
Did a double-check: Drano’s main active ingredient is lye. Lye breaks down and corrodes metal and organics, but plastics are inert as long as the lye doesn’t get too hot (it’s a pretty reactive substance). The gold-plated bits of cable are fine, but anything with aluminum or stainless steel like maybe the cable head would be a problem; that’s probably where the Drano would attack. The nylon braid (and the plastic wire cover and pretty much anything plastic) would still be intact.
YES 🙌
Maybe dilute nitric acid too? 🤔
@@boomkruncher325zzshred5 having dealt with a lot of corroded electronics, I can guarantee if the end is left in lye, the copper will wick it up and it'll rot. Depending on the type of insulation (if it isn't PVC, especially) it *may* penetrate the outer or inner layers.
Only way to find out is to waste a month soaking wires in lye.
I just kept looking at Tyler's truck expecting it to roll down the driveway while he had his back towards it facing the camera forgetting the truck is in neutral.
He put some chalks down so it wouldn't
I so enjoy this easy going straight forward content, nothing fancy or showy. Just a bloke doing what ever he thinks up, and it’s mighty entertaining!
When pulling the truck, by doubling over the cable you are spreading the load across two lengths of cable. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's the case.
That would be true, yeah.
The entire load is still being met at one single point on each side of the scale without any bypass. So it doesn’t matter. The only thing that doubling up is doing is increasing the total strength of the cable. It will not offset the total load being pulled, it doesn’t make the truck lighter.
It isn't like he's using a snatch block.
@@Zanelander whats a snatch block
@@UrDadsFavouriteMaleEscort it's a type of single line quick attach pully for winching it doubles the winch power for same effort 4x4/off road owners and recovery tow truck drivers use the and can also angle the direction of a winch line so u could actually tow around a 90° corner
I used to work in wire manufacture for a few years. Amazon basics wire was easily a more quality cable. Not only because of the wire "mesh" (referred to as a braid in the industry) which is used for both interference and strength purposes. Also cloth material you were talking about is aramid Kevlar fibers which are used for strength and flexibility purposes for the cable. Interesting that the titan cable and all its hype was proven to be garbage vs the Amazon basics 🤔
As soon as a cable stretches, it’s dead. The copper cores will snap instantly.
Not true. I stretched my 10 foot cable into a 10 1/2 foot cable and it still works fine.
Always remember officer 401, he gave Tyler a shout out 4 years ago and that had a substantial impact on the instant growth of the channel, you are an amazing content creator Tyler, I wish you the best in life!
I mean this in the nicest way, you are the best TH-camr to watch while taking a dump.
I literally only watch him while I’m taking a dump😂
Agreed
I'm taking a dump noooowww lol
Why does Tyler look like the kinda guy that would drive a Tacoma?🤣
Me: of course he's got a Tacoma
I bet the titan cable was busted long before it actually fell apart.
It was definitely broken before the plastic sheath parted on the first test
I've got a few of these 90 degree cables. I love them. Easier to gold the phone while it's charging and if it falls off the side by accident it doesn't land in a dodgy way that it snaps or bends the port
These extra "Mesh" on the outside of the Amazon cable are for grounding and not considered for strength but it’s funny how poor this unbreakable cable performed
Imagine being so excited to be one of the names on the wall behind him and casually you are the one that you can't see any longer lmao!
I say this all the time. Its killing my OCD
It was clearly too strong that it produced false results that can be the only explanation. Advertisements are never wrong 🙂
That “cloth” inside the Amazon basics cable looks EXACTLY like Kevlar body armor material
There's a good chance it is. If I remember right Anker uses it in theirs.
@@Nirrrina that’s pretty sweet! Bullet proof charger lol
@@petermelby9624 no, but very abrasion resistant.
Think chainsaw chaps, not bullet vests.
The meal foil is for shielding, and sometimes grounding. The yellow fabric on the inside actually is Kevlar. Im surprised its in phone cables, usually its in fiber optic 4 strand and larger, and its used for pulling in a fiber cable for installation underground. Kind of neat its in a phone cable.
My favorite thing is when something doesn't do what it promises tyler absolutely grills it for like a minute straight
The yellow (fabric) stuff in the Amazon cable is Aramid fibers (Kevlar). We have it in our fiber optic main cables in the ground where I work.
Yup, the aramid or Kevlar is really why this was so much stronger in the knotted pull test
ok but using the "rocking method", youre essentially using the momentum of the truck and its weight including the 116lbs of force to move said truck.
Those amazon basics cables are surprisingly durable, for a "basic" cable I rate them really highly. 👌
I ordered four of these a few months ago.
I'm not sure what you received but, they certainly don't feel the same as other cheap ones. The ones I got are much harder/stiffer, and the braiding doesn't take damage from rubbing rough surfaces like a lot of cheap braided cables.
There does seem to be a difference in feel between the different types though. I got one USB-C, two micro USB, and one Lightning cable. The three types have a mildly different look and feel to the braided outside.
The connectors are also much, much more secure than any other cable I've had. Even more so than a new device with its factory cable. Never had a Titan cable come loose from the cord being pulled or the device being dropped. And the connector doesn't bend like most others when dropped.
They've also survived a housecat determined to chew on anything that she thinks she hasn't chewed before. You wouldn't even see where it was chewed, even if you knew exactly where.
The only problem I've had is the lights on them. They're so insanely bright that it's like have an emergency glowstick on your side table at night. And they don't turn off when there's nothing connected to them.
Then again, I didn't go into the purchase believing that they're quite strong enough for half the claims, just that they'll be much better than the average cable, which they have been in my experience.
the "metal mesh" (metallic braid shield) is there to shield the wire from outside interference (power frequency and radio frequency interference), "raw wire" is called a drain wire, it's for grounding purposes and the "cloth" (fabric) is there to protect the wires from rubbing against the metal shielding.
I wish this was In podcast form or something. It’s so peaceful to just listen to before I actually sleep.
Umm he had a podcast at one point I believe? I swear I saw something like that from Tyler but it might’ve been abandoned by now
In the amazon cable, the component are a woven mesh around the outside to protect the components, rubber to protect as well, the wire mesh is likely for interference, as is the foil, and the string in the middle is a nylon strand, they usually use that for easier winding of the wires in manufacturing. The other cables have some of those components but not all, which seems cheap. For context, I'm an electrical engineering student.
the "raw" wire is likely ground.
Tyler has good taste with that truck
I can just about guarantee that the yellow fibrous material is Kevlar or a similar aramid. I used to see it all the time in fiber optic cables. It’s used to prevent the cable from stretching, fiber optics are very susceptible to breaking under very little tension. The copper in these would be less prone to breaking, but I suspect that if a wire stretched, it could develop hot spots at higher wattages some modern devices use.
The amazon cable is what we refer to as shielded cable and the shielding is actually more than I expected. the metal braid is akin to the chinese finger trap, mening if you pull it it tightens, but if you push it towards the other end it loosens off and scrunches up. The foil is another part of the shielding but also to protect the cables from damage. You would use the braided shield as an earth like cable and is the main interference protection. This style of shielding is mostly used were even slight interference can cause the equipment to go nuts.
That cloth string on that Amazon cable is Kevlar, they put it inside of a lot of data cable to improve strength of the entire cable for when they have to pull wire.
Great video Tyler!!!
yes that is mostly correct, but the "strength" really means that it cant be bent as easily. without the cloth, the copper wires would bend and eventually break, but with it, the cloth would take "soak up" some of the bending damage.
With how much it stretched. I doubt it would work after pulling anything with it. would be interesting to see in future tests if the Cords still work after the test. (to check that the internal wires have not broken)
Company: "If you have a problem with our product, let us know so we can make our product better for you!"
The cable has never been the problem it's the plugs that always give up
I found one called Fuse Chicken Titan cable that looks like it might hold up to the claims better. One of the thumbnails has a chainsaw trying to cut it, haha, but the housing looks to be metal.
I like those 90° ports they fit hands better when you watch videos or game
I'm so happy that you take these cocky manufacturers and drag them down in the mud
The yellow fiber material in the Amazon cord is Kevlar. Used for strength.
It will add strength but not really. It would break at the ends before breaking in the middle for sure. However, that is NOT the purpose of the string. When the outer insulation is being cooked onto the wires they line up several large spools of wire and a spool of string. they pull them all into a twisting device the preps the cable for insulation process. the string is connected to the new reel that will now carry the combination of all colored wires and the string.
The next process they line the new reel into a machine that feeds the rubber. The string is fed through the machine and connected to its final reel. Now the reel pulls the string instead of stressing any of the several wires that make up the cable. The reel is set to wind at a slow speed as the wire is fed through a rubber coating that coats the finalized cable (and also feeds it through the outer braiding where applicable). Its pulled through several tubs of water that cools the insulated coating before being wound onto the final reel.
Long story short the string is used to pull the cable during processing so as to not stretch the cable itself.
If u notice at 3:22 the scale stopped counting at 85 but the cord started to stretch more for another 7 seconds that’s why the claim it’s the strongest phone charger cord
Dude. I love your content. After a long day at work. I’ll come home, kick up my feet, crack open a cold one, and put on one of your videos. It’s a highlight of the day.
Anker makes the best cables and you can't change my mind, also the portable chargers are top notch
Anker Gang
Best part about this cable is that the end still frays.
*Tylers Neighbours* : "Linda! Come see this..he's at it again! Looks like he's pulling his truck around with a rope this time."
"Do you think we should call someone, Frank? I'm worried about him."
I personally caved a few months ago and bought the Titan charger. It has lasted longer than any charger I’ve ever bought which is probably because the 90 degree angle of the charging head keeps me from putting continuous pressure on the cord itself. As for the faster charging I only attribute that to my charging block not the cord. Not surprised it’s weak as hell but at least it’s gonna last me a while.
The cheapo wires have 4 cables for regular USB. USB c is higher bandwidth and requires 5 cables. As goes for the Amazon cable, the mesh is for cut resistance against rubbing up against surfaces, the foil for interference and the yellow fibre should be kevlar ( it is in the high end cables) for pulling force resistance. Hence why it performed better. *Flies away*
that laugh at the start of the test, you can feel the dissapointment lmaoo
Useless information. Great entertainment! That’s Tyler!👌
Outer jacket is the rubber. Then the braiding which is what will help stop interference and so will the shielding which is the foil. The ends are called fittings
Who?
The 90° connectors can be really handy depending on the situation... if you need to place the phone for example in your cars armrest storage but it's too long with a cable sticking out straight.
Honestly your one of the few youtubers that can keep me intrested and also when is are you gonna finish "A Way Out"
you should try the titanokobspider cable. Could be good in your experiments. Its made with a gold core to conduct electricity, a plutonium-aluminium foil to protect it from parasit, an electonV-Ti confirmation cable to avoid virus backup, and for resistance and solidity titanium-SW (Spider Web) coating. This cable can transmit at 2 billions miles and can handle 600 tons.
Try the test with the Dewalt cables from Home Depot, I've abused those cables and have yet to have an issue, but I'd love to see Tyler run them through his torture tests
Dude 90 degree heads are a game changer, especially while laying in bed. It's all I'd buy!

@@623jrs then you can just unplug it & plug it the other way around. I do it all the time man its not that serious lol.
@@ironbutt1834 how it only fits one way
There is a company that makes phone chargers and they claim that you can cut the charger and then reattach the head of it onto the piece you cut and it will still work, I think that would be an interesting video to watch
it actually works, sssniperwolf tested it and it ACTUALLY worked.
why would any normal human being worry about your phone cable being pulled apart, be like trying to sell a refrigerator by doing a drop test
of all the trucks i would’ve seen former-diesel-mechanic tyler driving, none of those trucks were a tacoma😭
I haven't watched the video all the way, but I have used an Anchor charger to pull a Chevy 1500 up my drive way and it still worked it was maybe 50-60 feet but 2 years later I'm using the same charger.
I fully expected to see the cable snap and the truck roll down the driveway right over that tiny block. Glad it didn’t go that way!
That cloth is Kevlar, and it is for strength and protection of the conductors in the middle.
I think Tyler Tube should have a colab with Project Farm
have you seen the magnet cables, there a small bit you put into the phone and the magnet will connect to it by itself. It can also come with a swivel end attached to the magnet end.
Theres one more test you should have done at the end, connect them up to a charger and see if they still work. A lot of times when you stretch cable too much, the wire itself can break within the insulation and no longer work or it can break were it gets connected to at each end.
Nylon string on the amazon cable is where the strength comes from, the steel shielding is the electrical ground
You should do a test on different phones with different size cords because shorter cords are supposed to charge faster but you should test that on different phones and different brand chargers
You're right there Tyler, "you can't feel it on camera!" Haha!
I'm liking this video for that thumbnail alone.
Had me laughing a bit
can you make a potato cannon that's really strong for no reason
I don't know what people are doing with their phone cables that manufacturers think we need bomb proof phone cables...
My experience with usb cable quality is the strength and rigidity of the connecter. Micro usb is a good example. Have you had a usb cable that you have to wiggle into a specific position just to get it to work? That's the only difference between them to me. Some of them just last longer before you have that problem.
I one time used this phone charger as a leash for my dog at a rest area and then I plugged it back in my car and it still charged my phone
I got a good idea for a video. Are snap-on tools better than Mac tools? I.e screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, pry bars, hammers, etc
Please file a lawsuit for false advertising, evil corporations
9:54 im assuming that's to activate O.T.G on a smartphone so it can transfer data if you didn't have that 5th wire it probably wouldn't work im just assuming though..
Is it just me or overtime in every video I watch are the names in the back falling down xD
Tyler fix the names haha
Well not all USB-C cable's will support like 100w charging so it may be able to charge a phone faster if the phone supports the higher wattage, but if you charge a regular phone with both cords it's not going to be any different
The outer metal mesh on the inner part of the wire is part of the circuitry for the Amazon wire. And the yellow fibers are kevlar strands
3:21 am i the only one who notices his scale stopped working?
Also I can talk because I'm a mil-spec certified electromechanical build technician building cables was one of my specialties
The thing about the test is that the wires inside Breakaway before the outside insulation breaks regardless of which cable it is so obviously the Amazon one was way stronger than the black plastic the Amazon when had a steel mesh outside which is a pretty good Gable actually way better than the plastic ones but like I said that filaments inside the copper and the steel mesh inside broke way before the plastic part or even the outside mesh of the Amazon cable so those cables with junk as soon as they stretch just a little bit way before 75 lb
The yellow cloth in the Amazon cable looks like Kevlar
They're on aliexpress under the mcdodo brand, they made a new company for North America so they could charge more lol
The connector heads are more durable, but you want to go to the higher watt cables for faster charging.
Forget about the MacGyver . People learning so much from you lol
My cords always break the connection where the end piece meets the cord.
It breaks from bending back and forth.
The cord itself has never ended up in 2 pieces. Just the wires inside break or disconnect.
I don't see the point of your test at all in my circumstances.
We shittin on Titan Cables over here...
😂😂🤣👌
About half way thru the titan cable strength test the meter stopped moving
I could be absolutely wrong here, but I think the reason it stopped was because he was just stretching the cable and it wasn’t lifting anymore weight
Because he it was stretching and not pulling
If he was using an audioquest diamond usb-c cable, that would hold at least 3.6million tons.
The video we all needed, I'm Happy with this result, would be good to see comparison with iPhone and various android cables (if brands all ha e different types like they used to)
Wow that was entertaining specially when you tried to move the vehicle
Oh thank god Tyler did this. I've been looking at the Titan range for awhile but keep putting it off. I definitely won't be getting it now
“We got a clean pull out of the head of that one.”

Titan claims their cables takes 1500 lbs of force to break btw
