- Today we test out thermite grenades against different targets like mail box, gaming computer, tank barrel and propane tank! Don't try this at home! Thermite is hot and too bright to watch at bare eyes so you are going to get hurt if you try this at home!
- บันเทิง
Omg the frantic sprint away with the giggling is hysterical. Optimal vibes.
It's like an Edwin Sarkissian video. lol
And the roar from the bottle!
9:00 - I see the Finish space program is progressing nicely and developed a first stage methane-based thruster…
🤣
Propane-based!
So if the FBI comes calling I can quickly light a thermite grenade 😂 sitting on my PC
That's what I do!
Old school, thermite on the drives saves hackers lives
FBI won't go where they are, no authority there.
It would probably be more reliable to mount your harddrives besides the pc and place the thermite directly on them.
Friction igniter. That way you only have to pull a cord to light it. Saves fumbling around with matches or lighters.
30 years ago USA government: NO you cant download and read the anarchists cookbook!
Today: welcome to beyond the press channel today we are making thermite grenades!
The cookbook would tell you its 3 parts iron oxide red to 1 part granular aluminum and you'll need something really hot to start it like sparklers.
@@Nefvillethat and a lot of now obsolete phone hacking tools.
Most of the 'recipes' were flawed, or missing steps.
@@pirobot668beta Man, I still haven't dried and smoked the banana peels 😅
@@pirobot668beta Exactly. If you want to learn that sort of stuff, the US military wrote their own manuals for it which is available for free and has all the correct info.
Fun fact: its common practice to use thermite to burn a tank if you have to abandon it during a battle so that when the enemy claim the tank, all they actually get is some partially melted scrap metal
Yep, and the difference between a thermite grenade and a thermate grenade is thermite is designed primarily for antimateriel purposes as you said, while thermate is better used for incendiary munitions due to its explosive properties.
Matter of fact, that's what their grenades were made of...thermate. Not thermite. Thermate contains an oxidizer.
Edit: The bucket is even labeled "Thermate."
@@adamb89the oxidizer is often Barium nitrate "Ba(NO3)2" at least in the military stuff
I imagine it's way more thermite then used in this video, i wonder how much is needed and what components they target. crazy though.
It's also one of the main non war crime uses of White Phosphorous, scuttling your own equipment to prevent capture.
@@adamb89 Termite also contains oxidiser. In case of classic Al-FeO* termite iron oxide is an oxidiser. Reduced iron is a byproduct of oxidation of aluminium.
The gas cylinder was EPICALLY AMAZING. You have to do more like that. Maybe a row of them going off in sequence. Thanks for the show,you have a nice day also. 🏴🤔😃🏴
Can't say I expected the heat pipes to explode. neat
The propane tank was suitably epic. I can appreciate the sentiment. Still alive and would prefer to stay that way.
Right heat pipes... I though it was a capacittor but on motherboard there are not so big ones.
“I went slightly bigger, because, why not?
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just to be sure!
@@Beyondthepress You really need to be sure when it comes to explosions and fire.
@@albert_vds
Obviously from the “If a little is good, more is better, and too much is almost enough” school of thought!!!
Science isn't about "why?". It's about "why not?".
For someone who works with explosives, I always find strange when he lights a fuse with a match when we have perfectly good jet flame lighters in this modern age
Usually we use electric ignition but we wanted to have some fun and went old school :D
@@Beyondthepress Ha ha fair enough. Great video as always!
Nostalgia is hitting hard sometimes 😂
I was thinking the same thing.
Next time I want to see one of those pecking bird things with a match in its mouth...
Oh yes! The music during the propane tank burn is so cool! It really adds to the stupid epicness.
I missed those moments. ^^
Hope we'll get more.
I start to understand why some say "it's all in the edit".
Love the data recovery guy bonus clip edited in there! You should do stuff like that more often where you send the results of your shenanigans to professionals to see if they can save/recover anything.
I love that “run for cover” is a key part of the Finnish incendiary safety protocol 😂
8:53 sounds like music to my ears 🔥
Russia: "We will invade Finland." Finns: "We play with thermite for fun."
They are just reminding Putin of who stands between him and the Baltic!
Also Finns invented Molotov cocktail. And first tested it on soviet tanks.
They seem to be a soft constantly bit grogged up teddy bears at first glance.
But actually, better don't screw with Finns, might not end well.
why russia bruh
@@GlebanBaraban-uy3qe who else would invade Finland?
@GlebanBaraban-uy3qe History: In the winter of 1938, the Russian foreign minister Molotov ordered the invasion of Finland. It did not go well for the Russians.
"Dont be where the interesting physics happens" -I think XKCD said this once. Words to live by.
A flower pot and thermite is a better combination if you want to burn a hole in metal and a larger amount will better result :)
Machine-translated the first and last of the letters in Finnish out of curiosity.
"Electricity bill past due 15,000 euros"
"District court fine"
I guess you could say that the SSD was.... FINNISHED
:slow clap:
If you put those thermite grenades insulated with a larger tube filled silica sand. Could really direct the heat to where you want it to go.
Out the base of the grenade.
Ahh didnt get to the later part of the video, where this was done with propane tank!
Good shit!
She is so cute! I love her facial expressions as he talks. 😀😃
There is something inside every man that makes destruction so interesting.
"Make noise and break things"
Why do you think demolition worker is one of the most rewarding job ? Destroying things is fun, and, you are paid to do it.
Thermite Grenades: "Nothing burns like we do."
Propane Tank: "Hold my beer."
He does it, so we never ever have to!
Finally some decent music in a youtube video. Thanks
Perfect soundtrack to the propane tank burning.🤘🏻
With every video you guys post on the channel, the more I come to realize that Finland is the "South Carolina" of Europe. (As a native SC boy, that's a compliment.)
I was thinking Texas, but hey 🤷🏻♂️
The big difference is that Finland has a far better education system, so instead of ignorant crazy fun they have educated crazy fun.
@@Rennrogue And a health system for all the people. Happiest population in Europe possibly the World.
@@Rennroguethe highest concentration of NASA workers is in Charleston, SC.
@@Ole_CornPopMote a function of the size of the country. Space is expensive, yo
Hopefully, TH-cam doesn't give you a community strike about this like they did with us. They removed our video on thermite grenades this past week because they define thermite as an explosive.
Loved that propane tank going up! People don't appreciate just how much is actually in those things. Something like this is a pretty impressive demonstration of just how much energy is there. Honestly, this reminded me of images from 1991 when Saddam Hussein lit the southern Iraqi oilfields on fire to prevent their capture during the Gulf War. Those runaway oil wells shot flames into the sky just like this. Those ones had to be carefully extinguished and capped with huge amounts of concrete. This one, fortunately, will just burn itself out.
Can you test thermite grenade vs Russian oil refinery?
Why stop at one?
The Last one looks like a Rocket-Engine Test for the finnish Space Program. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Note for future tests: Point the flame towards the planet Earth.
@@acada6594 They got bigger goals in mind. Who needs a space ship when you can just push the entire planet around with some big rockets?
It would be very interesting if you did the propane tank again, version (2.0), but next time put a scale underneath it to see how much thrust it produces.
The molten steel left in the end of the tank barrel probably wouldn't cause the barrel to rupture. However, that intense heat inside the barrel kills the metal's heat treatment and weakens it to the point it MAY fail. When it comes to disabling artillery and big guns, troops usually go for the transverse mechanism or the breach. Thermite grenades do wonders on those. Getting one on a tank's engine deck can kill a tank, too.
I'm glad everyone got through that uninjured - propane tanks are dangerous! But, if you want the big boom, put the therm. under it. ;)
More Thermite, more gas, please!!🚀
When I was a little brat, me and my friends did similar with mailboxes. But we did not have termite, so we used potasium nitrate, sugar and instant coffee. The coffee is for an added smoke (it smokes a LOT). We got som real "effcient" smell effect as a bonus.
wow, very nice finale! it would've been cool to have a pressure transducer under the tank because it looked like a bloody rocket 🤯
Now I know why Finns are happiest people on the planet. I would be happy too if I could casually play thermite.
You guys running away from the grenades is my favorite part of the video!
Lauri, you still got it! That was intense. And the jams. I wrote some lyrics while I watched it burn.
The 'mail' was just as funny as the rest of the experiment. 👍👍
Very entertaining! Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely loved this video! Only thing that I could wish for would be seeing the copper thermite in a mailbox as well for comparison. Great job as always!
One thing Noita taught me is to never trust a propane tank. Great thing you chained it down
They run and giggle like little kids lighting a Black Cat every…single…time…
I love it.
Love your channel, awesome slow motion footage 👍👍...OLD SCHOOL
Reminded me of being a kid. The metal and running on the slow mo brought a tear to my eye. Paljon rakkautta!
Nice to see slow motion with proper music. I miss the old intro with Thor's Hammer :)
Great Job!!! That was Awesome!!!
The mailbox was history. The Computer case (and motherboard), it had a trick up it's sleeve: A capacitor grenade. BOOM! Had enough force (thrust) to knock it over!
The propane tank was THE most spectacular! What a huge amount of thrust, it would've easily flown a kilometer or two into the air!
The steel pipe? Should've sealed the end with a longer fuse! BANG!
8:38 For a second there - you actually made a mushroom cloud! :-D Good job.
The Propane Tank was the best, good Music!🤘🏻👍🏻
It's actually worse if the tank barrel doesn't melt through, that means all the molten iron is now welded to the inside and blocking the barrel.
I came here to say this; also, if the Bad Guys don't know you did that, when they try to use it again, first shot they try to fire hits that lump welded to the inside - if the design is intelligent, there would be a plug outside the turret to blow off first & relieve the pressure if the barrel is obstructed.
Otherwise, all those propellant gasses will blow back into the turret.
Sounds like a Very Bad Day.
Perfect, absolutely perfect.
If you have access to someone who knows chemistry, you can replace part of the thermite mix with plaster of paris(calcium sulfate) and make a castable thermite.
The ratios have to be right to make the chemistry right, but you can also change the amount of plaster to control the burn speed.
We made a high plaster shell and filled it with a faster burning(low plaster) version that gave us a sort of 'shaped charge' that would considerate the heat in one spot and consume it'self completely over time.
Maybe you can have fun with this idea.
The propane can was awesome and the soundtrack was perfect!
Love these videos you guys do. Destruction and mayhem (controlled obviously) but watching how these things look and work in real life is pretty cool
The gas cylinder was freaking brilliant, bloody awesome video guys, just fantastic, cheers from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
That static test fire of that methane engine looks promising.
Amazing, your thermite grenades work equally as well on mail as Australia Post ! With the Tank barrel, you need to turn the thermite into Thermate by using Barium. You can also throw in some magnesium too. You have options :-) Either way.. you can now open an Australia Post office branch.
I didn't realize thermite was such a simple combination.
Sulfur thermite also leaves behind a byproduct which can react with water to form Hydrogen-Sulfide gas, so it's doubly dangerous.
And the hydrogen sulfide smells like shit
in higher concentrations it burns out your sense of smell... you smell thick shit stop breathing , itll literally take your breath away in low comcentrations... all you have time to do is wtf? unless you know the smell... use whatever breath you have to leave the area... use a balled up shirt or carbon filter if you muat take a breath. but dont stay there
6 years of safely avoiding stupidity as you do it SO much better than me! Keep it up :)
The propane tank fire was beautiful.
Pretty epic I must say!
That definitely looked like a fun video to make! Well done!
"Market leader in deleting mail" hahaha!
So so great . brilliant video .
Crazy... and GREAT fun👍👍
what a beautiful change of pace
Nice Riffs!
Best video of both channels yet
Amazing.
Simply amazing.
The slo-mo at the end of the video is amazing!
Iceland: we’ve got volcanoes Finland: hold my beer.
I remember Kevin Rose made a laptop with an integrated thermite charge way back in the day. Cool stuff.
I didn't know you guys had a second Chanel. I love HPC
Classic reaction (chemical) Excellent experiment!
So awesome video! I'm so amazed that the granade stayed on top of the computer, also "Mikähä vittu se oli!?" xDD
love THE GUITAR RIFFLOVE the guitar riff almost as much as the flames!! If it ain't metal it ain't shit!!
Anyone looking for the music I think it is Sightless in Shadow - In Darkness (Instrumental Version) which can be found on youtube.
The last slow motion was awesome
nice. something soothing before i drift off to sleep...
so sweet and easy to NOT reprpoduce! its funny that everyone basically has this stuff around them just have to combine them lol!
Man, starting out with obliterating a mailbox... Brings back memories of my childhood.
... Now that I think about it, we would probably have been jailed for terrorism if we did the same thing today, because we took ordinary fireworks, extracted the powder and made straight up bombs from it.
Nothing like starting the new year off with a good oldfashioned IED. :D
The stuff exploding on the computer is liquid metal in the cooling pipes.
Gun barrels are heat treated to resist the extreme forces when firing a shell - therefore, the extreme heat of a thermite grenade renders the barrel unusable.
Greetings from Germany!!
If you hadn't chained down that tank, maybe you could have pioneered the private Finnish space industry..."and for today's extra content, we launch Finland's first satellite made from parts I got at the hardware store."
Mythbusters had a Thermite + Ice explosion episode - maybe do one, or try and find a frozen lake to supply the ice for a bigger bang.
nice to see Finland entering the space program 🤣
Those tare-mites are pretty effective! 😁😁😁
One interesting observation here is that on the propane tank the flame is starting a bit away from the tank. It's about flame propagation speed.
10:01 fire and heavy guitars ...chefs kiss 🤌
They say Finland got rhe cleanest air! Well not in your area 😂
Amazing footage of the gas tank👌
Now thats a flamethrower!!! 🔥
That cpu cooler got HOT! There's only like 2 drops of water in those cooler tubes, so that was some intense ateam pressure!
You didn't mention your usual warning in the video, so I assume it's safe to try this at home? But then I read the description. Really loved the propane tank.
have you thought about 3D printing these with thicker side and top dimensions and a really weak bottom? you could run the fuse through a copper pipe so it ignites bottom -> up, maybe? I’m not sure, I’m just a random person.
Well this was good news. I had already scheduled a visit to take my old computers to my local Thermite Grenade Computer Data Cleaning Corporation office but I was unsure how well the process works. Now I can feel confident that my data will be safely erased and not recoverable.
That's probably the biggest flamethrower ever.
Bro got Hotmail.
Underrated comment!
The "heat thing" is a "heat pipe" it is a tiny copper pipe with a drop of water. heat turns the water in it to steam, and it condenses on the cold side (the cooler fins) and the it returns back to the heat side as a water drop again. They are super effective.
Seems to me that too much heat makes it explode. Yikes!
wow that was bad ass!!! you should try it with the bigger Tanks you use for welding.. oxygen, and Acetylene..
