@@1onemile1 I think he got the joke
@@1onemile1 no, the joke was literally in the beginning talking about paint thinner
It's genuinely terrifying how close paint thinner, cherry flavor, and tear gas can be chemically
I mean truthfully everything in existence in relativity is close to being the same thing. The atomic structure of 78 protons gives you platinum. Add one more and now it's suddenly friggin gold. Suppose gold is "terrifyingly close" to platinum then right? Everything is just one proton, atom, or chemical link away from being somethjng completely different. The anatomy of our universe is really weird.
And it's amazing how our body has the mechanisms to tell us two of those are definitely bad and the other is perfectly fine when diluted. Evolution is amazing.
@@alterapp8880 I think I main takeaway is how easily an one thing be turned into another.
Platinum and gold are not that different, but it is not easy to transmute them.
@@wuguxiandi9413 It's not easy, but it can be done. We've done transmutation before, even into gold, but it's just not worth the cost.

Chemistry is so hilariously polar sometimes. It's just so crazy that cherry flavour and world war 1 tear gas can both be synthesized from toluene.
ha polar. like chemistry.
Not to mention trinitrotoluene (TNT) is very chemically similar, too.

Hi😊😊@@abbydabbs5519
I can't explain how strange it is having studied chemistry, but never really doing anything with it for 10 years and then you mention carbon tetrachloride and my brain triggered alarms just from hearing it. I'm glad you finally made synthetic cherry flavour.
I feel ya. Studied chem, but I rarely actually use anything I learned. The second a NileRed video plays, everything I learned comes rushing back and all those lessons play in my head like a slideshow.
>carbon tetrachloride

Maybe you guys should make videos like Nile turning random things into other random things.
(Just don’t die)
@@Lee-One but imagine the content you could make if sth goes really wrong wrong
I had chemistry too and when he mentioned that substance i immediately had PTSD
Every time you make a flavor from a probably toxic chemical you just add an OH thing and like thats it. It’s crazy how giving it a hat makes it epic.
Awesome how paint thinner, cancer vapor juice and ozone depletor juice combined to make either tear gas or cherry flavor, depending on the mood of the chemicals apparently.
CHEMISTRY!!
carbon tet is cancer juice too
The mood of the chemicals! 😂 I couldn't have said it better myself!

Wait until you find out about nileblue
the fact that nile truly believed he had done everything perfectly, and it was only after he took a whiff that he realized he made tear gas instead of cherry flavour is exactly the reason why id be terrified of doing anything like this even if i knew it was theoretically safe.
"Theoretically safe" is also a very relative term because the theory your work is based on might be more or less reliable as the papers in the end were still written by humans. Also, you thinking you did everything correctly doesn't mean you actually did. So "theoretically safe" assumes a perfect theory and practice without any mistakes, in which case it would indeed be completely safe. That's why you double and triple check absolutely everything if you're doing something potentially harmful or dangerous. Even if you get the reaction right, just a little bit of side product that didn't get washed out can seriously harm you, depending on what it is.
But hey, that's why papers are published and why science has to be reproducible. The community can check your process and everything and correct any mistakes. The more brains there are that think about your ideas and practices, the closer we get from "theoretically safe" to "actually safe."
Yes that's why I love chemistry especially organic chemistry. Because you can do everything in the paper you're supposed to do and do it as precisely as possible and yet you can get something absolutely different. Man I love chemistry
@@Nitidus I study chemistry, just so my words have some merit here.
The HNMR, basically makes any impurities show up right away, since its super sensitive equipment (and also really fucking expensive), so after the HNMR graph looked good, (which it did, like literally textbook perfect), there was basically no risk at that point, and is just as safe as the stuff you buy in stores.
That’s exactly why I really want to do it. I’m just scared of having problems and not knowing how to fix them :(
@ihaveboneitis8259 When i was TA'ing during my PhD I had to write weekly quizzes for my students. I would just take a similar procedure to what I was teaching and minorly screw them up, bad math, wrong amount, wrong order, wrong solvent, wrong technique, etc. The students had the entire 4 hour lab class to collectively try to figure out where the mistakes were made. But they were also physically doing related but not identical procedures at the same time. It taught multitasking, attention to detail, teamwork, and problem solving. And most importantly, just because someone wrote it down doesn't mean it's right.
And it was super easy to grade for me since I didnt have to write new quizzes every other night. Just ctrl+c, backspace, and screw it all up
"Such a small change."

"Seems about right"

Toluene is not that toxic after all. It mainly serves as a substitute for benzene in many products which is really toxic.

Usually to check chemical smells you wave some fumes over to you and not directly sniff.
It’s a secondary explosive meaning it requires pressure and heat to go off
Primary explosives go off with either pressure or heat. Common primary explosives are blasting caps

Better yet. Pure cookies
He'd somehow manage to accidentally make chlorine gas in the middle of the process

A great example of why you never try to predict how much longer the video lasts until it ends LOL.
This was followed by making a chemical weapon and then trying to fix it using a banned ozone depleting solvent from a semi-sketchy source. Classic Nile
If Nile accidentally made tear gas while trying to get cherry soda, I can only imagine how those WWI scientists got accidental cherry soda while trying to do a weapon
“Hans, is the gaz ready??”
“No Lutz, but we made really great smelling oil!”

You always manage to explain things in such a simple way.
the vast difference between tiny changes in the molecules is insane. like, a single water molecule is the difference between tear gas and cherry soda
A single oxygen molecule is the difference between water and hydrogen peroxide. One is a perfectly safe and consumable chemical that is necessary for all life on earth, the other is a dangerous and highly corrosive chemical (at higher concentrations) that would destroy your insides if you drank it.
A single oxygen atom seperates hydration and death 😉
@@Flesh_Wizard I feel like if I was some omnipotent being just getting rid of one oxygen atom on every molecule that had one would be terrifying and terrific prank/experiment.
I've been drinking my paint thinner straight up all this time and it could've tasted like cherry soda? This is a revolution!
😕 Oh damn, I guess I must be somewhat of a lightweight, because I never drink paint thinner straight. Sure, I'll sometimes do it in shots, but I always chase it with liquid plumber or WD-40. But more often than not, I just make cocktails of paint thinner, ammonia & bleach.
📛{Warning: don't consume toxic chemicals like paint thinner and household cleaners}!!
@@HighlanderNorth1 Yikes. You need to drink more often and make sure to increase purity. It gives you a hard time when you first do it, but it's definitely worth it!
Mmmmmm, esophageal burns
@@Kaanfight
Yeah, well, maybe there's some esophageal burns, but more importantly, these chemicals kill harmful bacteria on the way down, so, bonus....
NileRed is the only TH-camr that would accidentally make a chemical weapon from ww1 while trying to make artificial cherry flavor from paint thinner.
that and explosionsand fire
“Accidentally”
@@clintonbehrends4659 Sounds more like extractions and ire ;)
It is shockingly easy to accidentally create ww1 chemical weapons. People make mustard gas all the time when they mix bleach with other cleaners to make a "super cleaner". (Don't do this!)
He's probably the only TH-camr to do either individually, much less together. Probably the only one ever for the latter.
the blatant omission of now nile got his hands on an internationally banned chemical in the first place is just gold 😂
Before it was banned, it used to be used as a fire retardant, if amateurs look hard enough they can still get it from really old fire extinguishers.
ok
I like looking at Ex+F's video, enjoying the lengths he went through and time he spent looking to get his hands on just a little carbon tet... then witnessing Nigel just pull a giant bottle of it out of his stash.
the fact he got it /for free/... this man istg 😂😂
what's the banned chemical?
The way Nile explains what’s going on sounds like even he’s unsure about everything.
That's because he is, which is probably one of the most endearing aspects of his personality: There's no machismo, no false-confidence, just straight up humility.
Confidence should come from the results, not from one's personal estimation of their abilities.
I always love the "I added something called ..." It always feels like he found a random, labeled bottle of some chemical just lying around.
That’s just your average science major… Telling this as an astrophysicist
He always sounds like hes about to say "but it didnt work", so you cant predict when hes actually gonna say something failed
Of course who would be confident in making cherry flavor from paunt thinner and accidently making tear gas
While watching him break down and build back and break down and build back chemicals and materials on a molecular level, I'm still impressed and amazed with stir bars.
I remember seeing a short advertising the stir bars for mixing drinks. You could always buy one for home use (and for showing off) if you have the money (I can't remember how much they were).
@@lisahenry20They're pretty cheap
Depends on the specific version but the cheap ones are only like 16 bucks for a 10 pack
Stir bars still confuse me 😭
Its essentially a magnet stirred by the stir/heat plate right?

> Accidently made World War 1 chemical weapon

Dude, I instantly remembered the toxic blood flask and the way you sealed it, and busting the glass tip open and pouring that mad creation back out is the best thing I've seen in ages.
"It of course wouldn't be cherry without the colour, so I also added some green food dye."
Genuinely thought he was gonna make green colored cherry soda and you know what? I was gonna accept it as if it were the most normal thing possible.
I was waiting for someone to mention this
@@brendanschuett yeah, I'm surprised no one brought it up 'cause it completely left me flabbergasted and confused lol
Fun fact: Benzaldehyde is the reason almond extract tastes and smells the way it does. It's also the sole flavoring in imitation almond extract, so you can also use it as an artificial cherry flavor. I've added half a capful of both imitation almond and imitation vanilla to a can of coke zero and it tasted almost exactly like cherry vanilla coke zero, which is extremely hard to find in my area.
Why drink the sugar free garbage though?
@@aaronyeomans5799they may have diabetes or some other condition that makes the sugar version hazardous, or, like me, they may genuinely prefer the taste.
@@midn8588 the latter. Regular soda can be too much, and aspartame doesn't bother me. Most diet soda sucks imo. Diet coke and diet dr pepper are disgusting, and diet pepsi is the only one I'll pick over the zero sugar counterpart.
@@topicvideosguy doesnt aspartame cause cancer or is that a myth
@@midn8588 Lol, diabetes does not mean they can't consume sugar, especially if they live a healthy lifestyle. Artificial sweetener are disgusting and not great for you lol.
Nigel:
-Im bad at chemistry❌
-The solvent is bad at chemistry✅
Benzaldehyde is really interesting to me because it's naturally found in bitter almonds (the same kind that are used to make confectionaries like almond paste and marzipan - and also the same kind with the compound that turns into cyanide. Bitter almonds are heat processed before getting turned into foods which destroys the cyanide* but not the benzaldehyde). I found this out because I work at a chocolate store, and all our almond/marzipan ones taste extremely strongly of cherries to me. Only one of my other coworkers can taste it, to everyone else they just taste nutty, and my curious ass needed to find out why. Benzaldehyde is also used in the processing of maraschino cherries, which is why it tastes closer to them than natural cherries.
Now I just need to know what compound makes celery taste like battery acid to me
What scares me is that you know what battery acid tastes like.
@@ChaosCodex199exactly
@@ChaosCodex199 :)
Do note that almonds are the seeds of a Prunus variety, which contains cherries, plums, and other stonefruit.
If your body is highly toxic healthy food will pull those toxins out of cells, and you'll taste your stored up toxins instead of the good food. Foods that cleanse, such as celantro, therefore taste funny to highly toxic individuals. They say it's genetic but it's actually just that families tend to eat the same terrible diets together. It is very hard to switch to organic food and do some fasting if your fat cells are loaded up with nasty chemicals. If you always eat good organic good and fast regularly, life is easy. So, clean your life up and celery will start to taste better. But, try different brands and try organic to make sure that the problem isn"t the celery.
Love how Nile just casually creates tear gas and 5 minutes later is using chemicals that deplete ozone lmao
He also made an explosive in there! Can't forget the explosive!
@@oro8052not that explosive apparently
Nile: "Yeah so this substance is internationally banned because it's highly dangerous"
Also Nile: *casually pulls a bottle of said banned substance out of a cabinet*
I can already hear the FBI at his door

@Justaperson354 Oh yeah, I forgot.
Nope, more like it depletes the ozone xd
@@the_green_cloudSuper unlikely that a single bottle will cause that much damage.
