- I was challenged by VW to make electricity to support their electric Supercar at Pike's Peak. The CRUSHED the course record by 15 seconds in the race. I got a little help from William Osman and some kids and without hurting any feelings one was better than the other.
Check out William's video here: • How Much Electricity C...
The battery used to store and deliver the lemon, zipline, and solar power is a Mobi Gen built by FreeWire Technologies.

Mark: LEMONS
*_[Lemons are the answer to life's biggest questions]_*
Correct!
And kids
When life gives your lemons
If Watermelons Produce Electricity
(Marks Backyard)
Water Melon Here, Water Melon There, His Water Melons Are Everywhere.
So, in this video:
-You forced lemons to kill one of their own
-You used kids to charge batteries
-You used kids as free labor
All that for science, that's beautiful ^^
don't forget impaled 1232 lemons
Free labor? Naw... They got paid with lemon juice which is a pretty good barter deal.
Don't forget he also took the childrens ideas!
also water tortured the solar panels to work
Thats why its sponsored by VW
"When life gives you lemo-"
Mark Rober: *I'm 4 parallel universes ahead of you*

ur late
you are everywhere, and that's scaring me
@@divijdutta9260 he was several late this time
It's just simply amazing that every of Mark's videos are filled of creativity, and always are an important contribution to the world. We love you Mark!
they are also filled with child labor
No just bulshit
1,232 lemons
mark is like the guy we get in the maths questions
Too true
Mark has 1,232 lemons, and he wants to make lemonade for 18 children. How many lemons per child?

are you british
HE IS OH GOD
So this car runs on child labor and unsellable lemons. Amazing.
yup
Are u joking or being serious
Serious
Mark literally made children work for him
Hell yeah it's called life experience
I love that Mark Rober doesn't discriminate with age. Kids are just as valuable as adults to him for their insight and that tells me Mark is an adult who grew up but never forgot what its like to be a kid: curious, full of passion & wonder, and eager to learn if you're just given a chance.
I love that he get all these kids involved. And that last girl walking past is awesome. 10:43
Agreed

@@kingfordvr5863 yes
It came out of william's money too XD
Is using kids to generate power via zip line technically child labor.
Edit: After many hate comments, I’ll clarify that this is a rhetorical joke. So please stop writing down such obvious responses.
Thank you for your time.
I guess so
But the children get paid by having fun
@@Fun-1892 it's still child labour
so Mark's videos.... illegal?
yeah, just like u put ur kids into school, to learn and after they graduate and then force them to work for society...
I love how Mark makes science fun for kids. The world needs this
how did this go from lemon batteries to making the kids from the neighborhood's day 😭💜
You would be an unreal high school teacher
Steph W I agree with that but sadly he is way too intelligent to work as a high school teacher. He helped develop software on a god damn MARS ROVER, high school is way under his skill set
josh zurek he said his dream is to one day work as a high school physics teacher!
josh zurek being overqualified doesn’t mean he can’t teach high school classes, it just means he will end up teaching kids who will love the class and learn concepts efficiently/effectively. His enthusiasm and overall energy would get any high school student at least a little bit excited. And it’s his life, he should do what makes him happy.
instead of teaching highschool, he could open a "science exploration group".....it was brilliant to let the kids come up with ideas, bash those around until they decided which one would be best, and then make it....there's already a similar group in Grand Rapids Mich: the National Science Institute... Mark could start a similar sort of foundation in California...
Tim Hyatt haha sweet! I go to grand valley state university, right near there! But yes I agree it was cool that he let the kids collaborate on an idea
Imagine he was your science teacher and said: “Ok today we are doing an experiment”
M T - That. Would. Be. Amazing!
He just had a live stream and he is becoming a science teacher.

Mark and William buy 1,232 lemon
How many electricity will they make.😂😂😂😂
NASA: *has issues with solar panels*
*Casually slaps nuclear reactor onto rover*
LOL
1st world problems.
Simple problem, simple solution. 😉
Like would Marsians mind radiations if exploded ? I don't think so!
Technically not a nuclear reactor, but an RTG, since it is powered by the heat given off from the radioactive decay of a chunk of plutonium rather than a nuclear reaction.

Mark: "you can charge a battery if you play on this zipline"
Kids: "meh"
Mark: "It goes up on its own"
Kids:"Wooooaaaaahhhhhh"
Mark was right when he said that pulling it up it the worst part
Those are kids for you 😂
Snowcharge aka me
The question is: How much energy does one way down generate and how much energy is used to get it up again, right?
Because if it takes less energy to let the zipline pull itself to the start you could just put a weight on it and let it do this over and over generating more and more energy.
@@BavarianHobbit there's no free energy..
I really enjoy watching your videos! They just bombard my brain with full of possibilities!
Why do I feel like there's always an incredibly satisfying montage in all of marks videos

@Kyle Haynes lmao
I actually think it's a brilliant idea to let children come up with a solution. Teaches them a lot - thinking for themselves and be creative among other things.
Isn't that disguised child labor? 🤔
I would love to have had Mr. Rober as my high school science teacher. Love his concepts🔥

-William Osman
kinda like with Michael Reeves when he basically said "It doesn't hurt when it's not hurting"
I completely understood it the first time I heard it, basically he's saying it's impressive for just being lemons, but not impressive in terms of electricity generation in general.
Yea! It made perfect sense to me too, MARK JUST USE YOUR BRAIN C'MON YOU'RE ONLY A NASA ENGINEER
@@ATLTraveler yes I also understand it
That car sounds insane.
And basically that's not the way how a supercar used to be sounding anymore. That's more of a remote-controlled car sound.
was not expecting the golden shower at 2:06, glad they kept safety in mind with the safeword!

I did not see you guys sandpaper the oxide layer off the copper before lemons were placed on electrodes.
I believe that the oxide layer may create an insulating layer preventing the electron flow.
That final shot was amazing, loved the Mercedes-Benz in the back with the Mercedes-Benz license plate on it, with the Volkswagen battery going past it, I think the lawyers loved it

Mark Rober: Departs to Colorado on a moving battery
*Arrives in Colorado*
Volkswagen: "Why is it only 5%?”
MARK: Good question!
LOVE your comment
crossing two states by only losing 85% thats a good battery though given that the direct air route is 766 miles (from center to center) and the shortest route by car i botherd to google is 1183 miles.
So by taking that numbers and checking what the best range of any E-car is we get (around 260) we can do the horrible thing called math(though its only dividing) and see an e-car would need close to 3 full charges (2,946......) if it could travel the air route and 4,55 via normal route.
Now if we take the battery and say it only needs 0,85 charges to travel those distances we get an maximum range of 901,17 Miles via Air route and a whopping 1309,4 miles on the street route
that makes it 3.4 times more efficent on air route and 5 time more efficent on street route then a normal e-car not that bad honestly
though the car will get you there faster and more comfortable
Blutwind nah that doesn’t make the battery good IT MAKES THE ENGINE ULTRA EFFICIENT
Blutwind /motor
Love the idea and the video is great but it really shows the inefficiency of green energy.
When life gives you you lemons make them into a super car battery

Besides being the genius that you are, the best part of the video was the interaction between the youngsters. They are indeed the stars of the show, and better than some of the movies I have seen recently!
The fact that I could be doing stuff like this today, but instead playing video games and of course watching the video, just dampens my spirits. I /should/ try doing more stuff like this.
This video teaches us a life lesson: If you have a problem, throw lemonade and children at it until it's solved.

Great fun, although obviously not a lemon powered supercar. Also the Mars rover is powered by an RTG (decay of PU238 to create electricity), not a nuclear reactor - which is actually a big difference.

Then force kids to drink it to power your regenerative breaking zipline.
I thought you made spelling mistake. Then I realized it's wrong in the video as well.
It's "regenerative braking" not "breaking".
Child labor lol
Ikr? I just saw it in the video. And I really wanted someone to quote a quote from the video in the comments. You sir/ma'am/helicopter made my day
Mark is like the cool uncle that everyone wants.
Anyone gonna acknowledge the actual loss in power on the zipline XD.... because your using a motor to bring it back to the top..... like lmfao ...... your using more force/power to get it to the top... then you get from them going down... yet... still a great video and another sweet NASA rover behind the scenes moment
I feel like I’ve learned more from this channel than the entirety of middle school
@Nikhil Krishnan ngh
im in middle school right now and i have learned more from watching paint dry than what ive learned in school
Truth
Yeah
which is not saying anything
I encountered a similar problem in astroneer, i was trying to avoid getting lithium (even thought i was on novus and there was lithium there but i'm just lazy) by making dozens of small batterys instead of a medium battery and it turns out may array of small batterys could only hold 640 U's of power compared to the 1024 U's of power that 2 medium batterys could hold and would have been easier to make.

For like 10 years I have been trying to figure out this book I read when I was a kid. I only remember it had a helicopter pilot and a super cool helicopter. Who knew a former NASA engineer making a lemon battery would give me the answer by wearing his Airwolf t-shirt.
Now I am disappointed there was a whole tv series that my parents and sister's hid from me!
The method is great. Very useful for the children
Just causally had 24 solar panels layin around? Lol
well if he had 24 solar panels, and each solar panel is around a dollar per watt, then...
He had the money to buy them. The lemon battery alone cost him more than $2k, so buying some solar panels doesn't seem like a problem to him :P
