So I’m actually in the middle of re-watching every MythBusters episode right now and I absolutely have to agree. I almost forgot how addicting that show is seriously just sit down and start watching an episode and you’ll get hooked very fast. There was a reason they went almost 20 seasons.

It's been soooooo long since we've had an Epic Blaze. Since we were only given a light snack today, please give us an Epic Blaze by year's end? Maybe one Epic Blaze per quarter?
I used to be an MOD at a Starbucks. One night when I was fixing up the deposit, I found out one of the baristas accepted a $20 bill that was a copy of the front of a bill and a copy of the back of a bill taped together. So, apparently some people will accept that bad of a counterfeit.
Honestly most of the time it's just playing the person accepting the money. Find someone glancing, accepting, and moving on and you're golden because you only need to stand up to a glance level of scrutiny. I've seen the footage of people getting fast moving money scammed so many times. And I've also been cussed out for recounting someone's money and seeing them only having 17 $20 bills and not the 22 they're supposed to be giving me.
WAAAAY back in the early days of the first laser printers, I had an uncle who would print 1 and 5 dollar bills on fibrous, fancy stationary paper and then use them in the local, seedy bars. He never got caught.
Once when I worked for 7-11, someone tried to give me a fake fifty. It looked like a badly worn bill that may have passed a cursory examination, but I saw the Grant watermark didn't seem right. I looked at the back, and it was part of the design instead of being in the core of the bill. I handed it back and asked for legal payment for the burrito he was eating which he didn't have, so I made him leave it. He tried to complain, and I said I could call the local Secret Service office, because that's one thing they're responsible for. He left, and hopefully my boss reported it or shredded it.
You three are the holy trinity for Blaze videos, Simon, Lorelei, and Dave. Knew it was edited by Lorelei within moments of watching. Oh, and Simon, if it is at all possible, please put the other two in a room together, to “discuss” which science fiction franchise is better (spoiler: they are both great - or they were, pre JJ Abrams, anyway…). Cheers,

... Soooooo... Hate to be "that nerd", but Mythbusters didn't disprove the bamboo cannon... They merely showed that it was built wrong in ST (which frankly was probably for the best,so as not to show how to really make one). Bamboo cannons are real, have been used in China (as weapons of war) historically, and even today are used as fireworks/toys in the Philippines. So, yeah...
Great show with sometimes scientifically questionable methodology and often questionable conclusions. They didn't use "plausible" enough, I assume due to the name.
An addition to the ice bullet/ice knife. Roald Dahl wrote a short story Lamb to the Slaughter in which a wife kills her husband with a frozen leg of lamb. She then puts it in the oven, calls the police and in the end offers the cooked leg to the officers who eat the evidence.
I had a next door neighbor for 14 months with a subwoofer fetish. Every time he arrived and left in his car, he blasted the one in the trunk of his car. Even if that was at 3am. It was so intense that some of the doorknobs inside our house were vibrating.
I’ve taken a queue from the editing and memes of brain blaze and applied a lot of them for my edits to my videos. I owe this channel a lot for being a meme source and overall inspiration
Dave says that the Mythbusters proved on two separate occasions that a bullet made of ice won’t work, to which Simon replies at about 8:59, “Mythbusters were running out of content”. This was in the second iteration of a video about ridiculous myths busted by Mythbusters, by the way. To be clear, I’ve been a big fan of Brain Blaze since long before it stopped being Business Blaze. My point is, you’ve clearly hit on a winning formula, Simon.
If a frequency could make people shite themselves. Then every person would be running around with a frequency tone generator on their cellphone, making people shite themselves..
I discovered like 3 days ago that the old mythbusters are available on TH-cam. I saw this video pop up and assumed that it suggested because I was watching those. Imagine my surprise when it was uploaded yesterday!
I remember the Brown Noise attempt. There were a couple of things that weren't taken into consideration, primarily they were using a generated square wave, not a sine wave, the sound they were generating wasn't natural (it was electronically generated and thrown out via speakers), in addition, they were _too close_ to the source - close enough that potentially 'near field' effects would have changed the properties of the wave - which can have an affect up to two wavelengths from the emission point.
Odd that you released this like, just now. I've come straight from watching a Mythbusters episode on here a few seconds ago. About that petrol thing, I've dropped cigarettes on petrol before and nothing has happened. I do landscape gardening during the summer months so you can probably guess how. I've filled up mowers and other tools while forgetting I was smoking at the time on a few occasions, one time I accidentally dropped one right on the edge of an open mower tank, it didn't go in but it did drop between the plastic petrol tank and the engine where spilled fuel had collected. My heart did stop at that time because I thought my face was going to get melted off when the whole tank went up, but nothing happened I've tried doing it on purpose since at a distance with plastic tubs with little bits of petrol in the bottom, it embers slightly but that is all. I've since given up smoking.
Ah-h-h......sweet! A Lorelei and Dave contribution. One can sense a Lorelei edit almost immediately. A lovely sense of snarck. Well done! Now get back to work! We need more Lorelei content. Chop chop!! ❤
Google's AI is completely wrong about a lit cigarette not being able to ignite Gasoline/Petrol. I tried that very experiment hanging out with friends in my High School years. I said a cigarette couldn't ignite the puddle of Gasoline I poured on the ground. Did I mention I did this in a little patch of woods near a neighborhood?(lol). Well I flipped the Cigarette pretty hard and you know how a cigarette sparks when it hits the ground? Yeah, that ignited the puddle and then the fire proceeded to spread and burned down said woods. I was then arrested for Petty Arson and got put on probation for 2 years with 120 hours of community service. Our Justice system is at work here, Despite not having any intent on burning down the woods I was still charged with arson.
Love Mythbuster, the moon landing specials in particular. The HMS Victory tour will tell you "son of gun" refers to babies born on the gun decks (between two guns) since many women lived on board - particularly in the long periods in dock/harbour. Bamboo cannons do exist - saw them in Malaysia in the 80's and I think they used aerosol can gas as propellant - more for fun and not particularly lethal.
I once worked for a pediatrician who agreed to let a mother go home and use a candle to remove ear wax from her child's ear when the child refused to have it irrigated.. A colleague praised this as respecting the culture of the client.
"You can't just print money on paper." My local bank begs to differ since they receive a few of these from businesses every year. I have seen bills that are black and white, barely printed as if the printer was almost out of ink, on construction paper, and, most common, printing on only one side.
3:47. Fun fact: I actually scanned a dollar bill on my scanner in 1998 when I was in high school. I then intelligently took that bill to school to show my friend what I did and gave it to him. That friend then tried spend it in the lunch line, and I was called into the office. Nothing came of it, but that was a fun experience. Anyway. . . Yes the bill scanned it as a smaller image and it was obvious that it was just a scanned image on a piece of paper.
I believe a big part of the reason you could do that was because US dollar bills don't use the Eurion constellation (or at least, they didn't las time I checked). In fact, the lower the denomination, the less security features they have.
Al has had an amazing band basically forever. I went to a concert of his when tickets weren't BS level pricing, best IRL performance I've ever attended. And ever will due to the aforementioned pricing issue.
Before the current technology to block bank notes, they used to look for patterns of lines with clever maths. I know this because my first job for MOD, i was responsible for the brand new, very expensive colour photocopier and the engineer explained it to me and that Xerox had 5 people worldwide who could disable this function. It was lucky he did explain this as we were a scientific research department and i realised why some of our structural modelling diagrams wouldn't photocopy, as they looked like banknotes, mathematically. We had to get one of these people in, once a month. The current way is far better.
My school had a yearly event where the seniors had to sit around in their homeroom classes for three hours while the other students took a standardized test. My class had a few people who could draw, and someone brought a sandwich wrapped in paper that was the same texture as a banknote, so naturally we spent a blissful couple hours making up bits of paper that looked like a $20 on one side, and said "caught you" on the other, tossing them into the hallway outside the classroom, and laughing at any teachers who picked them up.
Thank you so much for googling the cigarette thing. The reason the military uses diesel is because its even LESS combustible than gasoline and there are countless stories of Sergeants scaring the shit out of Privates by throwing cigarettes into diesel.
I have a newspaper from 1927. The headline says "Lindbergh Crosses Atlantic by Flight Without Mishap" The second story is about my grandfather. He was filling his Model T Ford with gas and somebody flicked a lit cigarette at him, burning him, the car, and the gas station. I did not meet him until the mid 80s, and didn't know him very long, but I still remember the scars on his left side.
Liquid gasoline/petrol will not catch fire from a cigarette, but gasoline VAPORS in air will catch from just about anything. There is a stupid trick about snuffing a cigarette out in a jar of gasoline, but you must have the container mostly full so vapors don’t collect just above it and put it in fairly fast (don’t pause with the cigarette near the surface, where there could be vapors). As for explosions, you need 3 things. 1) an exothermic (makes heat) reaction that 2) produces more gas molecules than you started with (by count, matter cannot be created, but you can break one large molecule into multiple small ones) and 3) CONFINEMENT. NOTHING EXPLODES UNLESS IT IS CONTAINED SO IT CAN PRODUCE A SHOCKWAVE FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF SOUND.
i have this stuff called air brush cleaner, it comes in a pressurized can and is VERY volatile. it will melt plastic if you spray it on it but it evaporates really really quickly. im fairly sure its one of the few things that will cause an explosion if exposed to a cigarette butt. again, it evaporates super fast, so it sitting in a toilet would probably not work, but such things existing makes me think the right kind of cleaning chemicals in a toilet could work (brake cleaner for example).
As someone who has problems with excessive earwax, I would advise you not to try to remove the wax on your own. Put drops in your ears to soften the wax up and let an ENT remove it.
Although you can't make a bullet out of ice, I have seen an ordinary candle fired from a muzzle-loading gun and go through a plank of wood. Look up Colonel Brian Shaw's explosives lecture.
I remember my mom found a short story when I was a kid about a woman who murders her abusive husband with a leg of lamb, put the lamb into the oven before calling the police, and the story wrapped up along the lines of "Sorry ma'am, we couldn't find the blunt instrument the intruder must of used on your husband. This lamb is delicious, by the way." The ice bullet story reminded me 😂
We are on the verge of understanding something that's so pivotal in understanding human nature. We can just about print a firearm using a 3D printer. Now if what everybody thinks about guns is correct then it's about to be the end of the world. At least for a majority of people. We'll see.
4:51 and some will print them with a little serial number that can be tracked to your printer/photocopier. 16:14 did they do this twice? Because the one I remember was every member of the cast and grew donating their own earwax to make a blob that was hand (glove) fashioned into what we could call a cone-ish thing they put a wick in. Still didn't work.
A smouldering ember will not increase oxygen-consumption when fuel-vapor displaces oxygen 5:45 fuel-vapor, ratio density smothers oxidization: fire is a runaway oxidizing reaction, so is rust, rainbows too probably.
So, i have something to add to the brown note bit. There's something called infrasound, which is sound waves BELOW the frequency we can hear. At my dad's alma mater, Brown university, there is an elevator that was once known as the elevator to hell. It was called that because people who rode on it would get physically ill with headaches and nausea. Eventually the elevator had to have its fan replaced, and they found that the ventilation fan had bent in a very minute way. The resulting vibrations created infrasound which made the person sick. Infrasound CAN be used as a repellant to keep people away from an area. Hell ultrasound is used as a rodent repellant. If I didn't have a bunny rabbit and a cat I would have used it a long time ago. A few years back there was a rat problem in the basement and they kept digging up my vegetable garden to try and get in. Rats apparently have very long memories, because I had witnessed one ducking into the basement window not long after I moved in a little over a decade ago. Fast forward some years later and there was a small mound of dry dusty dirt in the basement under that window with a mummified rat in the middle. It must have buried itself alive. So while smart, not that smart. The rats in this immediate area however, have always been hellbent on getting through that one window no matter how hard I tried to keep them out. The then landlord even shut the window up with foam, and they just chewed their way through. The other note I have is this; The reason an ear nose and throat doctor would have infected earwax in jars is because its medical waste that has to be specially disposed of. You can't put it in the dumpster and send it out with the regular garbage. Likewise everything that goes into or comes out of a body in a hospital or doctors' office needs to be specially disposed of. One of the reasons I got annoyed with Mitt Romney's pro life views awhile back was because he may not have believed in abortion, but he definately believed in investing in companies that removed the waste left over from one. If he really truly believed that that waste constituted a human corpse, he'd have been an emotionally insensitive clod and tried to have it buried without the consent of the woman it came from, like they once did in Italy, which sparked a lawsuit. And then I would have had a whole new thing to mock him over that would have lasted much longer. Instead the news glossed over it.
Sound below 30Hz is more a feeling in the gut. It will make you sick or turn you on depending on who you were. I did Audio Amp development back in the 90's including 1000W Subs that would drive down to 1Hz.
I liked the "Alfred Hitchcock" episode wherein a woman beats her husband to death with a frozen leg of lamb, then roasts it. She ends of serving the lamb to those who come by to investigate the man's death.
I did see a guy on here called "concept crafted creations" that did some weird ice shooting water gun thing a little bit ago that was pretty nuts. Probably only hits with the force of a paintball but it was shattering wine glasses for whatever that's worth 😂 makes me wonder about the ice bullets thing again
You can easily get chemical burns on your junk from cleaning products in toilets. My mom put bleach in our toilet when I was a kid and decided to let it sit to soak. She did not tell my sister who later went in to pee. Bleach and ammonia is not a good combination. Thankfully my sister flushed the toilet and washed herself as soon as she felt a slight bit of burning, but it very easily could have been worse.

It was lucky he did explain this as we were a scientific research department and i realised why some of our structural modelling diagrams wouldn't photocopy, as they looked like banknotes, mathematically. We had to get one of these people in, once a month. The current way is far better.
The "ew ew ew" cut was hilarious! I mean, the whole video was; but that was definitely the hardest I laughed!
My school had a yearly event where the seniors had to sit around in their homeroom classes for three hours while the other students took a standardized test. My class had a few people who could draw, and someone brought a sandwich wrapped in paper that was the same texture as a banknote, so naturally we spent a blissful couple hours making up bits of paper that looked like a $20 on one side, and said "caught you" on the other, tossing them into the hallway outside the classroom, and laughing at any teachers who picked them up.

Thank you so much for googling the cigarette thing. The reason the military uses diesel is because its even LESS combustible than gasoline and there are countless stories of Sergeants scaring the shit out of Privates by throwing cigarettes into diesel.
I have a newspaper from 1927. The headline says "Lindbergh Crosses Atlantic by Flight Without Mishap" The second story is about my grandfather. He was filling his Model T Ford with gas and somebody flicked a lit cigarette at him, burning him, the car, and the gas station.
I did not meet him until the mid 80s, and didn't know him very long, but I still remember the scars on his left side.
4:25 "You're about as useless as JPEGs to Dave!" Thanks Dave! A song stuck in my head that I actually like!
“Oh that was the introduction” he realized as he read the first part of the video
Liquid gasoline/petrol will not catch fire from a cigarette, but gasoline VAPORS in air will catch from just about anything. There is a stupid trick about snuffing a cigarette out in a jar of gasoline, but you must have the container mostly full so vapors don’t collect just above it and put it in fairly fast (don’t pause with the cigarette near the surface, where there could be vapors).
As for explosions, you need 3 things. 1) an exothermic (makes heat) reaction that 2) produces more gas molecules than you started with (by count, matter cannot be created, but you can break one large molecule into multiple small ones) and 3) CONFINEMENT. NOTHING EXPLODES UNLESS IT IS CONTAINED SO IT CAN PRODUCE A SHOCKWAVE FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF SOUND.
Thank you for the Placebo pun. Another hilarious BB 🤘
i have this stuff called air brush cleaner, it comes in a pressurized can and is VERY volatile. it will melt plastic if you spray it on it but it evaporates really really quickly. im fairly sure its one of the few things that will cause an explosion if exposed to a cigarette butt. again, it evaporates super fast, so it sitting in a toilet would probably not work, but such things existing makes me think the right kind of cleaning chemicals in a toilet could work (brake cleaner for example).
The Weird Al Pentiums inclusion was perfect 😂
As someone who has problems with excessive earwax, I would advise you not to try to remove the wax on your own. Put drops in your ears to soften the wax up and let an ENT remove it.
Although you can't make a bullet out of ice, I have seen an ordinary candle fired from a muzzle-loading gun and go through a plank of wood. Look up Colonel Brian Shaw's explosives lecture.
I remember my mom found a short story when I was a kid about a woman who murders her abusive husband with a leg of lamb, put the lamb into the oven before calling the police, and the story wrapped up along the lines of "Sorry ma'am, we couldn't find the blunt instrument the intruder must of used on your husband. This lamb is delicious, by the way." The ice bullet story reminded me 😂
I’m fairly sure that was either a Twilight Zone or Hitchcock Presents episode
Lamb to the Slaughter, by Roald Dahl.
I very much appreciate the use of Hot Fuzz clips by the editor.
We are on the verge of understanding something that's so pivotal in understanding human nature. We can just about print a firearm using a 3D printer. Now if what everybody thinks about guns is correct then it's about to be the end of the world. At least for a majority of people. We'll see.
4:51 and some will print them with a little serial number that can be tracked to your printer/photocopier.
16:14 did they do this twice? Because the one I remember was every member of the cast and grew donating their own earwax to make a blob that was hand (glove) fashioned into what we could call a cone-ish thing they put a wick in. Still didn't work.
That was a fun watch!
Starfishes love you guys!!!
Star Trek, a future where money no longer exists but everyone still has to work for some reason.
A smouldering ember will not increase oxygen-consumption when fuel-vapor displaces oxygen 5:45 fuel-vapor, ratio density smothers oxidization: fire is a runaway oxidizing reaction, so is rust, rainbows too probably.
I loved the fact that if something didn't blow up, they would make sure that it did.
So, i have something to add to the brown note bit. There's something called infrasound, which is sound waves BELOW the frequency we can hear. At my dad's alma mater, Brown university, there is an elevator that was once known as the elevator to hell. It was called that because people who rode on it would get physically ill with headaches and nausea. Eventually the elevator had to have its fan replaced, and they found that the ventilation fan had bent in a very minute way. The resulting vibrations created infrasound which made the person sick. Infrasound CAN be used as a repellant to keep people away from an area. Hell ultrasound is used as a rodent repellant. If I didn't have a bunny rabbit and a cat I would have used it a long time ago. A few years back there was a rat problem in the basement and they kept digging up my vegetable garden to try and get in. Rats apparently have very long memories, because I had witnessed one ducking into the basement window not long after I moved in a little over a decade ago. Fast forward some years later and there was a small mound of dry dusty dirt in the basement under that window with a mummified rat in the middle. It must have buried itself alive. So while smart, not that smart. The rats in this immediate area however, have always been hellbent on getting through that one window no matter how hard I tried to keep them out. The then landlord even shut the window up with foam, and they just chewed their way through.
The other note I have is this; The reason an ear nose and throat doctor would have infected earwax in jars is because its medical waste that has to be specially disposed of. You can't put it in the dumpster and send it out with the regular garbage. Likewise everything that goes into or comes out of a body in a hospital or doctors' office needs to be specially disposed of. One of the reasons I got annoyed with Mitt Romney's pro life views awhile back was because he may not have believed in abortion, but he definately believed in investing in companies that removed the waste left over from one. If he really truly believed that that waste constituted a human corpse, he'd have been an emotionally insensitive clod and tried to have it buried without the consent of the woman it came from, like they once did in Italy, which sparked a lawsuit. And then I would have had a whole new thing to mock him over that would have lasted much longer. Instead the news glossed over it.
12:08 - 'Metalocalypse' YES!🤘
_"Why are they keeping that?!"_ is pretty much the same thing I was screeching at hearing that… 🤮
Sound below 30Hz is more a feeling in the gut. It will make you sick or turn you on depending on who you were. I did Audio Amp development back in the 90's including 1000W Subs that would drive down to 1Hz.
As a petrol station employee, it's human stupidity that scares me far more than one lone lit cigarette
I liked the "Alfred Hitchcock" episode wherein a woman beats her husband to death with a frozen leg of lamb, then roasts it. She ends of serving the lamb to those who come by to investigate the man's death.
Star Trek > Star Wars. Fight me! 🤣🤣🤣
Depends which series 😂😂😂😂
@@eloisepharmacist Sorry about the late response, but the Holy Trinity: TNG, DS9 and Voyager.
I did see a guy on here called "concept crafted creations" that did some weird ice shooting water gun thing a little bit ago that was pretty nuts. Probably only hits with the force of a paintball but it was shattering wine glasses for whatever that's worth 😂 makes me wonder about the ice bullets thing again
You can easily get chemical burns on your junk from cleaning products in toilets. My mom put bleach in our toilet when I was a kid and decided to let it sit to soak. She did not tell my sister who later went in to pee. Bleach and ammonia is not a good combination. Thankfully my sister flushed the toilet and washed herself as soon as she felt a slight bit of burning, but it very easily could have been worse.
What about a baseball size chunk of ice, shot from a slingshot? “Usual disclaimer about please don’t murder”
I can confirm a little cigarette won't ignite petrol. I smoke around it all the time and it's funny how much it freaks people out.
Let's gooo. I'm a simple man. I see brain blaze, i click
The fact that Simon is British and STILL not using Monty Python for his "get on with it"s is a damn shame.
That was Lorelai and she lives right n Australia.
Love how each editor has enough of a unique style that I can tell who has done the episode. Google searches? Lorelei!
They used seamen from their own units, thats wicked. :3
I forgot that Simon can't properly pronounce da Vinci.
Davinsi. Davinchie thevinki pingwins
He probably can but refuses to. Like how he calls Illinois illi noise
12:15 😂 that one got me! My coworkers and I used to say that to each other during rushes!😂😂
