- Great film of how a gasoline engine works.
Cartoon showing what happens to a drop of gasoline from the time it flows into the gas tank to when it is exploded in the engine cylinder. This "fantastic voyage" through a glisteningly clean Chevrolet engine is an excellent example of the soft-sell industrial, where the product that's promoted is hardly ever mentioned by name. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
"No drops of actual gasoline were harmed during the production of this film."
LOL
this comment defines the age that we live in
@@erdemozturk4585hey you are gr8 on all aooern .

Better than Emoji Movie.

Truely
By far.
Anything is better than that movie
I'm sorry, are you attempting to compare two opposites, one of hard work and dedication and the other of voilent mistakes.
I can't believe they killed just for this movie that poor little droplet of gasoline.
Oh, he'll get his revenge. It's name is global warming.
😂😢
@@Bloodgod40 oh shut it
They just followed it... But yeah
So the sound a car makes is just the gasoline screaming while it’s dying, that’s why electric cars don’t create sound.
Exactly gasoline has a soul in it is sad that we think electric cars are ever guna be......
Electric cars run on the already dead bodies of millions of tiny coal particles that were already killed at an electricity generating plant miles away. So you cant hear the screams.
Lol
@@roysterfutrell8889 EXACTY
Love the fact that the pump is set for less than 20 cents a gallon. I recall needing to buy new gears for our pumps during the 1973-4 fuel crunch, because they would not go higher than 49.9 cents.
USA should have nuked them. Showed the arabs who is boss. Imagine how good life would be if arabs still lived in tents
Just seeing such a shiny new motor from an old car makes me happy
That drop was killed after he exhausted all possibilities.
Bill Bright 💀👻👍
BA-DA-BA-DOOOMP *TSHHH*
it really ignited his personality
Lmao
that drop of gasoline gave his life so you could go to the liquor store to buy more beer!
The droplet didn't just drive the car engine but also the idea of how things work into our brains easily & with a smile. More films like this ? We are waiting for every little drop of such content rich videos.
A drop of gasoline swimming in a river of gasoline :-p
#RIP drop of gasoline. You will be missed
The bastards!
It was swimming in it’s friends
spoiler alert!
Oh my god, they killed Drop of Gasoline!
it was murder!
The bastards!
Gasoline Lives Matter
OMG! THEY KILLED GASSY! YOU BASTARDS!!! ;-)
They always kill off the best characters.
Gasoline -12c per gallon was expensive in the 30's.
RIP little buddy!
Another classic from the Jam Handy Organization
A lot of commenters are mentioning leaded gas. It was added to the gas as an octane booster to prevent engine knocking, same thing is done today but with different chemicals (Knocking is when the gas in the cylinder ignites just from the compression of the fuel/air mixture. Octane boosters make the ignition temperature higher.)
You ever get a chill down your spine seeing a cute drop of American gas get killed in a 30's cartoon for doing his job, only because soon after this message could get lost in German translation?
This is the way I think of gasoline whenever I fill up.
"yess, get in there bitches... pour into your demise and death"
Especially that 1 single drop out of 12 gallons.
This looks like an apprentice training film. Back then apprentices could be very young hence the cartoon format.
Man, cartoons in those times were intented for adult viewer....
Best show i seen in a while 😌
he's loaded...with Pb(lead)...l remember in those good old days scrapping burnt lead deposits off top of pistons and repolishing cylinder heads.
Wait... Didn't leaded gas became more common after the war? You know, there were so many flathead engines with low compressions, rendering them suitable to lower octane ratings.
The really old flatheads like the Model T had such low compression that they could run on anything. Gasoline, kerosene, diesel if you could find it.
But by the time of the flathead V8 compression ratios had risen from 4:1 to well over 6:1 requiring higher grade gasoline. It was still difficult (and expensive) to make high octane fuel so lead was used even in gasoline well below 87 back in the day.
Of course it’s not the good old days for me. Aviation fuel still has lead. It’s 100 octane but even 80/87 until it was discontinued was leaded. Lots of time spent digging lead deposits out of spark plugs with a dental pick.

beautiful educational film. well done jam handy
Interesting video. I feel sorry for that little drop of gasoline though, he got burned up so the car could run.
Kristina The Mountain Traveler, My exact thoughts as well.
I wish life was still simple
Superb explanation and animation. Thanks for uploading.
God speed little fella! 😢
Mankind owes you a great debt, for your work helped us build our world, and allows it to function effectively.
0:50 so we just gonna ignore the fact that the gasoline drop just wasted a crapload of other droplets?
lol
@@aryansaklani7347 No, that bothered me as well.
Imagine having that old car brand new today
He got angel wings!
@ 6:52 You were good son. Real good. Maybe even the best.

Sami Alhalabi yes
This is awesome
Best example ever.
Great film!
beautiful video
I cried like a little bitch...thank you for your service 'lil drop!😭..#neverforget
My grandfather said that Steam was the best power source for cars. He owned a 1912 Stanley Steamer and predicted in the 70s Steamers would come back.
Strictly functionally, steam engines still actually work better for certain uses (like drilling oil wells) but are never used because of the cost. Reciprocating steam engines are extremely simple and eady to troubleshoot when they have a problem. They are enormously powerfully with 100% torque even at zero rpms. They need no transmition. But again, they cost too much to operate.
Yeah. And steam airplanes too!
You need a better energy source to make them viable. Even so, you would want an energy source that can be activated almost instantly and then the steam can take over.
They managed to make an educational video entertaining
Death is never easy, especially of one so young, but I take comfort in knowing that at least you had a relatively peaceful journey. No high pressure fuel pump squishing you and whipping you around, no injector nozzle blasting you out at high velocity. You didn't have to suffer taking the EGR path where you'd see all your buddies in their last throws of life just to be burned some more, and then you peacefully lofted out into the air without being incinerated in one of those evil catalytic converters. Had you lived to a ripe old age you would have suffered much more.
RIP Drop.
Lmaooooooooo
Should of never got rid of the glass bowl, so u can visually see whats in your gas!
You realize how extremely dangerous that was having a glass bowl under your fuel pump?
Someguy6571 welll ... it’s technically before the fuel pump ... and honestly... it’s really not that dangerous
@@Someguy6571Asking out of curiosity, How is it dangerous ?
@@ohchord9573 well you know glass. it sometimes breaks. so engineers made it preventable to not break open if the oil were leaking a fire would break out on the automobil
cool video thanks
That was so cool.
“There goes the ghost of our drop of gasoline. Thanks to the engineers he has given perfect account of himself. He has lived a fortunate life than other drops” is this gasoline communism?
Gasoline communism means that you have to wait in line for your monthly ration of 20 liters or so, to burn it into an obsolete engine that's underpowered and wasteful. And yes, the gasoline is leaded and there's a lot of dirt and water in it too.
I can’t believe they just killed off our favorite character like that,
At least he went out with a bang
this is so sad he died im crying
My tear drops weren't gas so I couldn't relate.
So Nice
They killed him, brutal . Also that has to be the most vintage thing Iv ever seen
Wowww! The Chevrolet fleetmaster my fav car!
Vídeo maravilhoso
What a fucking show. EXCELLENT
Cool, I want one.
Me encantó este video . aunque no entiendo el ingles es muy explicativo hasta un niño lo entendería. ..
No fuel filters in those days. Just a class jar class. If it gets dirty just open up the bottom and let it dump on the ground
Bravo
Better than some crap animations!
The Gas pump say's 17¢ a gallon at 0:24. 17¢!
In the early 60s gas wars between stations was common and for a short while I bought gas as low as 14 cents a gallon. Then they wised up, got their heads together and agreed on a price whereby they could all sell gas and make money. It's been uphill ever since.
After inflation in today’s worth that about $3.12 so it’s still really expensive gas
@@paulduffey7975 isn't that illegal?
I have no idea. There were no news accounts that I know of. It was probably a gentleman's agreement. It just happened. There hasn't been a gas war since that I know of though during a crises some stations gouge the public.
I'm not sad that drop of gasoline got exploded. He contained lead.
It’s funny people say that old cars are bed for the environment but I’ll bet making cars from the 30s didn’t produce anywhere near the same co2 as c today does and then you have the fact that they don’t last as long and people just scrap them rather then rebuild them back then if you had a car you drove it and once it was warm out you rebuilt it and drive it again what we need to do to save the environment is stop over production

un sentimiento 💙
These videos are funny. 🤣
@6:52 "i dont feel so good"
yeah the death of the drop can be seen as sad but i started crying the 18c/gal, where i live it's 1,7€/L (~2$/(~1/4 gallon)) which is about 8$/gallon and that is not counting the robbery going on in pump meters
Every time a Chevy starts, gas droplets get their wings...
A part of me feels bad for that gas droplet, but another part of me is glad he died doing what he loves and didn't go all depressed like that cat Felix did 14 years ago, man, some toons had it rough in the early 20th century.
se murio la pobre gotita :(
Amazing 1930's technology.
0:50 if u stop for think, the last drop of gasoline will be crushed by a piston and fired to hell when the combuston of the motor come in.
Let's sit back and watch it happen!
Back in the day where car manufacturers educate people of how their vehicles work they were simple, plain, efficient. Now days we have some much in a car "vehicles are smarter" and people becoming stupid by the day.
Welp no warning. Might as well try and swim through a gasoline system myself 😀
this video predates safety warnings for people trying to commit natural selection
Wer'nt enough lawyers chasing deep pockets back then.
6:50 best part
Funny explain!
No gas was harmed in the making of this video...
Jam Handy sizzled it, learn more from his toons than modern attempts.
rip gasoline drop 🪦
God speed little doodle
Hrm... I'm gonna say this was Fleischer who did the animation. Things there that are pretty reminiscent of Popeye and Betty Boop but then again, certain tropes were common across studios in those days.
Was this meant for junior high school students? Its sophistication level would seem to indicate that.
5:35 sounds like he actually hurt his self microphone pop and then he says Ouch
I’m not crying you’re crying!
Am I the only one who thought it was weird the gas drop not only dried himself off, but he did it before jumping into liquid. He even took the towel with him. He gave it up to fit through the filter.
And why was he so spooked by the fuel coming into the filter. Thinking the whole sequence was to show him getting 'cleaned' by the filter.

Omg! The ending is so sad 😞😥😢😔😪😭
and this my son is how you were born
Pobrecita gota de gasolina , se murió 😭
Now I know how a carburetor works
feel bad for the droplet
Damn i like this anime season 2 when?
It was about 2.5 cents a litre of gas back then...120 cents per litre is common, now. In Canada, anyway.
You know there's something called inflation, right?
The source I used accounted for inflation...I think.
In Japan in 2007 it was 400yen (close to 400 cents) per liter!
and that Chev cost $700
inflation = the owners need a little more profit.
You are a genius 👏🙌✨❤👌🏻😍👏 @usautoindustry
7:32 where is the black leaded smoke?
Oh no😵 the spark plugs killed the little drop and became an gasoline Angel 😝😂🤣
I come from the future. That drop of gas' great grandson sneaks into Thanos' ass and immolates itself, defeating him painfully.
Better than fast and furious.
Gasoline drop dies in infinity war
Press f to pay respects to the drop of fuel.
how much gasoline was consumed in the last hundred years?
'carburator'.... even though it's spelled correctly in the graphic. The word clearly has an 'e' in it, people. :P
Rip gasoline drop🙄
