- We made the world's heaviest baseball then destroyed a bat with it. Also, we made another video obliterating objects with this same sphere, you can watch it here: • Tungsten Sphere Destro...
In this video we also tested our solid aluminum bat vs the tungsten baseball to see what would happen. It was rather destructive.

World's Heaviest Baseball Destroys Bat - บันเทิง
Are there any more iterations of this concept or particular experiments you'd like to see us try next? Or do you think we should end the series with this video? We made carbon fiber bats in the past, but we were never completely happy with the finished results, maybe we should revisit that? Would love to hear some of your thoughts. Also, if you missed our previous video where we absolutely obliterated many objects with this same sphere, you can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/ne-outEGdhM/w-d-xo.html
Like others have said. I’d like to see you try putting the ball on a tee. Also it’d be cool if you built a super powerful swinging mechanism for it.
worlds heaviest ping pong ball :)
Google translate *tung sten* . Literally means *heavy stone* in Swedish. So that's your backstory of the name
• Tungsten phone case. Pickpocket proof.
Worlds heaviest kickball
put the ball on a tee so you can really line up a shot, also a tungsten golfball would be fun (and cheaper)
this and a spring loaded swinger so you dont have to break your wrists!
TUNGSTEN GOLFBALL!!!!
Another upvote for tungsten golf ball.
Yes Golfballs
Absolutely!
Polymer resin shell reenforce threaded or wire dipped layer and a core.
Meant to be reactive but absorb the blow. That tungsten may be too hard for many materials…
Problem with teaing off is the same as a pitched ball though.
If it’s not half of or equal to the mass at the point of impact… your basically hitting a tungsten brick wall… if a traditional golf club doesn’t shatter on impact… it’s will rip your arm off… seriously hurt your hand and do nerve damage as well…
Titanium alloy clubs with adjustable weights you can put a tungsten insert in there. Some have a composite head with a modular face plate.
On top of the 200mph+ contact speed you could fashion a powered bat design too.
Straight up smacking a raw tungsten ball would not be a great idea… the forces required would more likely shatter everything involved… and at horrendous velocity.
You should see if Mark Rober can make a make a machine to throw the tungsten ball and another machine to swing the tungsten bat. That would be so cool to actually see them in action.
DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!
Took the words right out of my mouth.
A collab between Waterjet Channel, Mark Rober and The Slow Mo Guys
The machine controlling the bat would break
God have mercy on anyone who gets struck by that ball
The weight never fully impressed me until I saw those grown men absolutely struggling to pick it up with 2 fingers. That’s wild haha, great video!
The sound it made on the floor gave me a good idea
For those wondering, there are 6 elements denser than tungsten.
Plutonium which is made in nuclear reactors
Neptunium which decays away very fast, half of its gone in 2 days
Rhenium which is 5 times rarer than gold
Platinum which is about as rare as gold
Iridium is 5 times rarer than gold
And osmium which is also 5 times rarer than gold
So yeah I don't think anyone's beating this
(I got this info from Google so may be wrong, stuffs definintly rare though)
You missed gold.
I think a ball of plutonium of this size might be at critical mass meaning a ball of this size would undergo cascading nuclear reactions, and you'd end up with meltdown or a mushroom cloud depending on how quickly together it was put.
gold isnt rare
Also some aren’t isotopic which mean they can’t be used in contact with oxygen
The longest lived isotope of neptunium, 237Np, has a half life of roughly 2.144 *million* years
@@mossy8419 Want to hear something you MIGHT be unaware of?
The longer the half life, the less dangerous it is, but the longer it sticks around.
You could probably wear a depleted uranium wrist band for your entire life, and feel no ill effects from the radiation.
However, it's extremely toxic and is pyrophoric, meaning it can burn when enough it's just exposed to air.
But it's unlikely radiation would be a problem. It is radioactive, with a 1/2 life of 4.468 million years.
Funfact, if you wanted to put the same amount of weight in a metal sphere that was just 15% smaller, it would require the heaviest metal in the world, Osmium. If we were to recreate this smaller sphere at 9.75 lbs for the sake of comparison of this ball, at a going rate of $908,907/lbs, it would cost $8,861,849 to achieve. I would ballpark it at $10M to make 'the heaviest baseball' and it would weigh roughly 11.25 lbs.
osmium isn't $908,907/lb. it's more like $20 per gram
@@cvspvridk where you found that but I’m seeing around 1200 euros a gram.
I was literally gonna ask why he didn't use osmium. Now I know 😅
@@xostler he knows a guy
@@theking5116 I think they did some math wrong and were trying to be funny
$20/ gram comes out to $9,080/lb that’s my best guess.
So it should be $2,000/g.
Soak the ball in a saturated iron oxide solution. Then cover it in very fine aluminum powder. See if hitting it with the bat will start a thermite reaction.
You should load the ball into a pitching machine and create the ball park’s deadliest weapon.
Put it in the cannon Destin from Smarter every day made to break the sound barrier with a baseball
@@MrWarbadger or get them to drop it from a helicopter onto a car or something
well if the velocity is proportional to kinetic energy squared the tungsten ball would be like 900x slower
@@incription could still posibly kill. and would be neat to see how fast it goes
Make sure to mix a bunch of normal baseballs in the hopper with it
Surprise superball, fun for everyone!
What's wild is that regular baseball made out of whatever material MLB decides to use that particular season (they aren't standardized, somehow) can ALSO split bats clean down the middle like that when a professional pitcher throws to a professional hitter. So if you're ever wondering about the power these guys have: they can get similar results to hitting a 9.7 lb ball, by hitting a ~5.2 oz (1/155th the weight) ball made out of a softer material
Congratulations, you just discovered that acceleration affects force.....too bad Newton beat you to it like 500 years ago.
@@Astraeus.. what a needlessly snarky comment. Legault was obviously just illustrating the skill that professional baseball players have, and you have nothing better to do than making useless comments like that.
The reason the wood bat split down the middle like that is because you hit it on the wide part of the grain. Gotta hit where the grain is tight. Very cool video though guys!
Not that it makes a difference to a ball of tungsten
@@Freedomcustom It absolutely makes a difference. Wood is a LOT easier to split with the grain rather than across it.
@@Astraeus.. Against a ball of Tungsten it really makes no difference
That recoil tho... my wrists hurt just watching this 😂😂😂
i agree
Can someone chop up the part where they’re struggling to pick it up with two fingers and repost captioned “3 guys act like a normal baseball is heavy”
The fact it split down the middle means that was a perfect bat
Damn
I think they're designed to break that way. If it broke horizontally, a piece could fly off and hit someone.
Love the multiple camera angles. Well done!!
I bought a 1kg cylinder of tungsten a bunch of years back and it was under $100 (Australian dollars). I see the price has gone up substantially! Edit: Wait ... the ball here 4.3kg! No wonder.
I work in a factory and we saw many metal prices jump significantly during covid. But it's like gold; prices go up and down all the time.
It also makes a difference the form the metal is in, and how much. Like i bet twice the amount of tungsten is more than double the price.
We see it when comparing cast stainless to forged stainless. We can make a particular item from either type, but cast is cheaper and lower quality. Also, when we compare both types but in different sizes, cast pieces increase in a much more gradual way (to a point), whereas making a piece from a larger bar starts jumping drastically in price as larger bars are required.
Yeah well I'm gonna make one out of depleted uranium! 😂
"I got a furry bottom"
This in Destin's cannon...
The ball would stay still and the cannon would get launched backwards lol
and fired at Shane's bat...
@@andrerenault Swinged by the mad batter machine...
Time to get in touch with the SmarterEveryday guys and their supersonic baseball cannon
The medieval urge to slam someone with a tungsten ball.
Knowing that pitchers can already break batter's bats with REGULAR baseballs... imagine a pitcher throwing the tungstenball with same force
Only Tungsten Arm O'Doyle can handle it
You guys have done a great job of branching off from your original channel concept and keeping it interesting. It’s been a pleasure to watch y’all grow :)
When you have an uncontrollable urge to smash a bat on a metal post, knowing that it will definitely be painful, but don't want the public to think you're an absolute psycho. lol
Your presentation style has gotten way better since you took over the channel, keep it up!
"Yeah, I've got a furry bottom" is an excellent quote
at some point he needs to make a 99.99 purity osmium baseball
Where did the guy go who licks everything?
Licked something he shouldn't have...
He died
Really?
@@TheJacobgardner probably
Lol
Make a rig to swing the bat. That's a measurable force. Put the ball on a tee, that's a control. See how far a machine can hit the tungsten ball vs tungsten bat.
Also, I like the guys idea for a golfball
You finally achieved that scene in Tom and Jerry.
bat just went 'mmm. no thanks'
Great video, love you guys!
Watching you all try to lift it in the raw reactions bit was so goddamn wholesome.
you should go to a baseball store and see the reaction of people that don't know the type of stuff you do.
this ball in Destin's (smarter every day) baseball cannon...
"And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout, But there is no joy in Mudville-mighty Casey has struck out."
from
'i got a furry bottom" to " hmmm... minecraft villager" had me rolling
*insert how this tungsten cube cured my mortality*
did the old crew leave the channel?
First time watching this channel in like 3 years. Missed yall
Set it up on a straight up and down tether and then swing, that way you can gauge where you’re likely to hit.
"That's a rotator cuff; His career's over"
"The final stitch goes through the center of the ball"
Yeah, new challenge; try to drive a needle through a 9" sphere of elemental tungsten
Alright now you need a tungsten bat to hit the tungsten ball with.
Finally another good video idea
"Go long!"
~sentences moments before disaster...
When you're done with the tungsten sphere, you should send it to How Ridiculous. Maybe even do a collab.
next step is a sphere of *Osmium*
This definitely needs a co-op with Stuffmadehere's powder actuated bat.
Shoot that thing would destroy itself it was hard enough with a normal baseball
....I was thinking smartereveryday's baseball cannon.
@@InsanePigeonthat’s literally just a 10 pound cannon
Wow the camera angles are a big improvement!
Next time something crazy happens ya'll needa go pog lol. Good video boys
Welp time to buy a baseball-sized sphere of osmium
Not only is this the worlds heaviest baseball but it is the worlds most morally suspect baseball as well! Haha
I love how he hits that ball with a full swing and the ball just barely even moves.
This is how I imagine Goku's gravity training
Hold on. Let me turn a star into a baseball so I can claim that record. Beat that!
The channel that made the bat-gun-thing should collab to see if it works with this thing
imagine hitting it w a aluminum bat, it would ring ur hands like a doorbell
It would shatter every bone in your wrists 😭😭😭
the fun about tungsten is that is is not only heavy, but also nearly indestructible...
“I’ve got a furry bottom”
Subscription material if I’ve ever heard it in my life
Playing baseball with a shot-put, excellent idea
I'm shocked it was actually tungsten, and not just steel, or a hollowed out tungsten sphere with lead in the middle.
Making hollow tungsten would cost more than making a solid sphere due to manufacturing costs and having to machine or somehow injection cast tungsten, which is probably not possible.
If it was lead on the inside, it wouldn't have weighed enough. The only thing that would be dense enough would be gold or uranium, and both of those are far more expensive.
@@pkobalt I think he was alluding that he expected the chinese factory to skimp on material
Would not want to be swinging bad that hits that thing
a baseball made of Osmium will be way denser…. But it costs $5,833 per pound (in 2019) probably more right now
Edit:
I found a 10mm cube (1cm cubed) of osmium for $1,250. That would mean it weighs 22.5g which puts the price at $55,555.56 per kilogram which is about $25,252.53 per pound.
wait so one decimeter cubed would weigh 22kg or...?
(10cmx10cmx10cm)
"no one, but i dont want oyu getting any ideas"
nile red:
I definitely would have worn gloves if I was swinging at this. Helps with the vibration and definitely helps with the splinters when it inevitably breaks.
I'm making a uranium baseball. The record will never be beat.
When I saw y'all doing your math in freedum units I died a little inside... SI for life!
That underside camera just had a near death experience
Next: depleted uranium baseball
We need Stuff made here’s explosive bat vs tungsten ball
Smarter every day baseball launcher Collab when??
3400 C melting point? Piece of cake!
Tungsten golf balls would be a good prank 😂😂
I'd love to see Eric Sim still nuke this
Tungsten baseball: destroyer of wrists
Please, I beg you to get Smarter Everyday to send this out of his supersonic baseball cannon!!!
It is funny to see the bat just stop mid air when it meets the tungsten ball 😂
Need to get Eric Sim hitting these.
3:04 - "The perfect maxi-pad doesn't exis...."
What about Tungsten ball vs. the crome steel ball?
I think gloves might be a safe investment swinging those bats😂
Someone needs to swing the tungsten bat. Someone with beefy muscles
We now need an osmium bat
You need to find a man who aclimatized to the tungsten cube.
Only then will you find a proper pitcher.
I'm surprised you didn't use Crocodile Leather and Spider Silk Threads to incase the ball 😂
Need to colab with the slow mo guys, or How ridiculous and drop that ball on different stuff!
“I got a furry bottom”😂😂
Ok….
Now make the worlds heaviest bat
I bet Smarter Every Day and Jeremy Fielding could build something to swing the tungsten bat.
It makes it look like something is wrong with physics
Now get the guy with the basballbat that has bullets in them.
It's insane that no matter what you hit it with the ball went like 2 feet
"I saw my life Flash before my eyes: XD IM DEAD
If Destin doesn’t get to shoot this from his baseball cannon, then my mom said we can’t be friends
My guess is that whoever made that quote didn't really know what they were getting themselves into.
we need to see this ball at terminal velocity, perhaps dropped from a drone
There’s something so brain-breaking about watching grown men struggle to move a baseball
6:53 Wasn't expecting pesäpallo.
I love how you flitch and tense and turn away when pitching th Tungsten ball. Not for nothing, if that actually somehow got momentum and came back, you’d be hella screwed. I would have ran after throwing or used a tee lol
You need to get ahold of Destin @ smarter every day and get that thing in the baseball cannon.
