Please like the video (and not just this comment), so I know there are people who would like to see the longer time frame time lapse of it. Also, please send the video to someone who would find it interesting. Thanks!
False, its not about humidity but contact with water and air. The part that touch water give up electron while the part that touch air takes electron, which get rust.
Consider that specific piece of metal was literally under constant contact with water/moisture the entire time. Metal typically "won't" rust that quickly.. But it can, under the right conditions.. How quickly, and how badly it rusts depends on the duration, and severity of contact with moisture.. I hear salt water is even worse on metal.
I find it so fascinating how the part in contact with the running water is barely affected until the water flow gets changed and it got a chance to dry out a few times
Yes, it's really interesting. I moved the flow of water occasionally (especially in the second third of the video, to let the steel also dry out a bit at some places.
Rust only occurs in exposure to oxygen. Water doesn't inherently have much free oxygen in it, but it does act as an electrolyte that allows the electrons to move more freely between iron and oxygen. So for fast rust you need intermittent water and air exposure. Where the flowing water was, a continuous stream kept that area fully submerged so air couldn't contact it.
A video idea would be to show the erosion of water dripping on an object. Maybe watch water eat through a bar of soap or some other water sensitive material. Great video by the way.
I've been meaning to do that for some time, and I will start it soon. Great idea. I think it would work best with a huge jawbreaker, but I can't get them here in Europe.
It looks like the surface is super scratched. With a properly galvanized surface is should last a lot longer. A really interesting test would be to use your C100, some A36, stainless, and some galvanized, and maybe some copper and aluminum, each of which could be half scratched and half pristine. Now THAT would be a super interesting test.
As sson as I saw the video on my feed I was like "Damn, he must have had this one going for weeks...months even" (just to get any rust at all). No...that rust set in, in 20 minutes! That's insane.
Same!! I was so sure that for a full rust it would take a year at least Makes me want to be way more diligent with water around my metal/ iron euipment
@mistermagnificence2112 i worked in construction and the rebar would start to rust in the time it took to came from the mill to the construction site, which was around 80km.
@mistermagnificence2112 no, you will never get an piece of rebar that is not rusted when working with construction, and it will always be only superficial rust.
That's one thing I find hard with modern steel/iron: the composition. Under the right conditions anything made mostly of iron will rust or corrode, but how much does it depend on the composition (my guess is a lot)? And how can you figure that composition out....
Great idea, I love it! Unique, I've never thought of it. I’ll definitely try it. I think it’d be cool to show different items being sunbleached in a compilation. I’ll look into what works best for this and try to get it done soon.
It’s such a good exemple of molecule friction and erosion to see the part constantly under the flow badly rusting and the rest of the metal completely covered in rust. Splendid 🙌🏽

@@PhotoOwl That added personality and creativity is what distinguishes you from other time lapses. Side note, I agree with the other comment about water corrosion. Could be interesting!!! In any case, have a wonderful day.
Wow! So fast! I absolutely did not expect it to be that quick. I read the comment response about the steel type, it would be fascinating to watch a few different grades of steel side by side under these conditions to see the different speeds of rust accumulation.
I could do so many variations for this time lapse. Same steel but sea water, or water that has hydrochloric acid in it. Or a comparison time lapse with various steels, or various metals over a long time. I'm definitely going to do one more version, just a bit unsure which one
The reason why the part in contact with water doesn't rust is because it is a cathode as compared to the part exposed to the air which is an anode. The air contains oxygen which reacts with the electrons of the iron to form iron oxide also known as rust. The water also contains electrolytes which speeds up the process of corrosion.
Video until it's gone? Deftly I would watch!! Man... I never tought that roust would be that fast. Less than a month and the thing is absolutely busted
The thing I noticed was the area with DIRECT contact to the stream didn't rust or rusted much slower. It was the metal AROUND it that has more exposure to the air and more of the run off and moisture that rusted quickly.
Fascinating how the middle stays rust free for so long, despite being under the flow of water! Was it rinsing away the surface level rust as fast as it could form, vs the outer edges that were just soaked?
I really appreaciate the artistic shots of your janky set up. It's nice to be able to see what you're working with. Also, thank you for just using the same water.

You're going to think I'm crazy (and it'll probably be difficult for you to get ahold of), but a timelapse of blood in a collection tube would be beautiful. I've done phlebotomy a long time. The red cells are heavier than the plasma, so they start to settle near the bottom of the tube. It becomes a gradient where it's pale or foggy at the top, and dark red at the bottom. And you could have a spot of blood on different materials (types of cloth, paper) and do a time lapse of it becoming darker. I don't know if this would take long enough to make enough content for a full video. But I think it would be neat. I've always wanted to see a time lapse of red cells settling in a tube
This is why you have to dry metal fast after it's wet, too many times I washed something and didn't wipe it or hang it where the water drips away fast. Wash a knife and set it down on a flat surface so a little puddle forms against the tip or part of the handle.. I have to dry the joint areas of tongs and whisks fast or those spots will get rusty because the water clings to it. If you put something grimy into water to soak it and then take it out, you have to manually wipe it down or it starts to rust as soon as you walk away. It's shocking, you'll set your screwdriver down on the table on your back porch, go to bed, it rained for ten minutes whike you slept, and you wake up in the morning to find your screwdriver rusted to the table.
I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the main angles, and I had to film one in macro. I'm very glad that I did, it looks really interesting (at least to me)
This would be amazing for making costumes and movie props. Just put it under a mister for a few days and suddenly the entire plot of AMC's The Walking Dead has occurred.

With something a bit more rust resistant thing might actually make an interesting art installation. Make it a thicker plate as well. Call it "the decay" or something and have it in a town square. Every day you pass it it will be different until eventually it's gone.
funny enough, a british filmmaker wanted to protest the very high fees required by the censorship board, so he submitted a movie to the british board of film classification called "Paint Drying" which literally was all it was, it lasted about 10h and per the requirements of the board, the entire length of the movie had to be watched. You might already know this but in case you don't and for others who might not know
This was a very interesting watch. Never knew rust could set in so fast. Now I kinda want to see how long it would take for a similar piece to get rusted into disintegration.
This would require a significantly more complicated setup, requiring compressed air, but a good way to get things to rust is by spraying them with saltwater or artificial seawater using an air atomizing nozzle.
Fascinating how quickly the rust showed up. Makes me think how lucky we are that old metal ship wrecks like the titanic are still around for us to observe and learn from.
True, but I'm not sure how long it would take for old ship wrecks to completely disintegrate. Titanic probably still has a few decades if not centuries to go.

That part in contact with the water doesnt rust as quick because the running water prevents Oxygen from coming into contact with the metal, thus preventing surface rust from forming.

Would have really liked a before and after weigh in-- that, along with either measuring its density, or even just grinding the rust off afterwards, would allow us to determine to what depth the rust penetrated/destroyed the surface of the block. Very cool either way though!

@@Unknown_unidentified That would be done pretty fast :D

This really highlights how direct contact with water isn't remotely as bad as high humidity from being NEAR water.
Now I'm wondering how the experiment would have turned out if it was just left in a very humid environment. I think I should do that as well
False, its not about humidity but contact with water and air. The part that touch water give up electron while the part that touch air takes electron, which get rust.
@@PhotoOwl Leave it half in water, half outside of water in a hot room, do it also in a cool room (room or container)
it's not the water that's corrosive, it's the oxygen,. the stuff we breathe does this to metal.
Right. The water itself is probably relatively anoxic, which will inhibit the corrosion relative to more mixed concentrations of water and air.
Because of youtube, ive watched paint dry, rust form, and flowers grow from seeds to fruiting. Its amazing how quick it forms
Same lol 😂
I didn’t know rust would set in that quickly

Metal typically "won't" rust that quickly.. But it can, under the right conditions..
How quickly, and how badly it rusts depends on the duration, and severity of contact with moisture.. I hear salt water is even worse on metal.
If the metal got pre heated, like red hot it can rust even faster, just from the moisture in air. It's a old problem when welding.
I find it so fascinating how the part in contact with the running water is barely affected until the water flow gets changed and it got a chance to dry out a few times
Yes, it's really interesting. I moved the flow of water occasionally (especially in the second third of the video, to let the steel also dry out a bit at some places.
It's because there is (almost) no contact with the air.
Maybe it's just because the rust is continuously washed away by the flow of water ?

Would have really liked a before and after weigh in-- that, along with either measuring its density, or even just grinding the rust off afterwards, would allow us to determine to what depth the rust penetrated/destroyed the surface of the block. Very cool either way though!
Thank you! Unfortunately I haven't weighed it beforehand:(
Seeing the water evaporate and take the rust to the top was interesting.
