WOW that hammer is epic!!!! BUT, you just challenged me to contest of DEMOLITION??? You challenged ME… the King of the Demolitia…. to a contest…… to DEMOLISH something….. can wait to hand you that L.
can't wait to see it happen
Meh, you'll easily hand them the L.
Yessss
Oh Matt please don't do it them.
Yes
Crazy idea! Weld 44 on the flat of the hammer so it stamps 44 into everything.
Brilliant idea!
This needs more attention
Heck yea!
Definitely do that.
Do this!
Derrick with Brett's daughter was THE cutest thing i have seen all day!!! 🫶🏻🥹
I can agree sooo cute!!!!
Thank you engineers at DSM for making this hammer(which has produced amazing results)and also great job, because that is one impressive machine, despite its simplicity.
Next level stuff! It's seriously hard to believe this hammer actually exists!
Lmao first reply
2ns
yoooo whats up thats amazing!
You guys should do a collab and so a trick-shot with it somehow.
sup that's amazing
You should rig like a see-saw under it and see how high you can launch something
THAT IS GENIOUS
That’s such a good idea
YES!!!
yes please!
Totally
These guys are living a life most of us could only dream of. They're getting paid huge amounts of money to hang out with their mates, have fun and just be themselves while destroying things with all sorts of ridiculous equipment, like Hulk's fist and this colossal hammer
how much do they make individually you think? google says a pretty dumb stuff, it varies way to much
@@jdssurf I don't think these geezers need the money. Rich kid's hobby. But it's good they've found somewhere to let off steam other than crime...
Not sure anyone would give them a job; so better than being a cost for social security because that's where they'd be without this.
One thing I've learned watching hydraulic press channel is that you never underestimate the strength of a ball, whether it's glass or some form of metal...
people underestimate glass because its usually very thin, glass is generally brittle but its still pretty strong
Yeah, that steel ball was a surprise to me. I thought for sure that it would get at least a little less round… instead it just pressed into both the plate and the hammer itself
HOLEE SHEET
@@scottydu81 hahaha classic
Aaah yes I am definitely a real Peter Johnson and not a fake google account created in under 2 minutes. Keep up the great content lads!
😂 it’s the profile pic for me
I believe it - you've got an honest face.
Wow, Peter! You look just like Derrick!
Wow a doppelgänger! Amazing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looking forward to your content matey
I’ve been watching HR for 4/5 years now, I remember watching anvils being dropped from the tower… and now you guys just casually have a 7 meter tall, 3 tonne hammer. The levels of progression over the years are just insane and can’t wait to see what you have planned next for that beast!
4 5ths of a year, noice...
I remember when anvil v anvil was such a big deal it was anticipated for months
Four to five years dudes 🤣 not four Fifths of a year.
Yeah anvils onto paint cans, bowling balls onto trampolines, small stuff compared to this past two years!!
6:15 It's so satisfying to see the dust float in the air as the metal plate is pushed underneath
This is he kind of content I need more of. Makes me nostalgic for some of the old Mythbusters explosions. Excellent video y’all!
9:55 Absolutely love how the hole left by the steel ball is serving as a mold for the copper ball now, leaving the bulges on the downward side.
Both sides, actually.
:-)
2016: "Let's flip water bottles onto store/restaurant/business signs"
2021: "Let's build a 7 meter 3 ton hammer"
Some ideas to take up against The Hammer:
- Car
- Lawnmower
- Old phonebook (or stack of phonebooks)
- Large garden statue (concrete with a steel middle)
- Bird bath
- Swimming pool full of water
- Giant styrofoam block
- Fireworks (think you need a permit for that in Australia though)
- Carton of eggs
- Casket or burial vault
- Giant bucket of bouncy balls
- Stack of feather pillows
- Office chair
- China cabinet (full of cups and plates and whatnot)
- Kitchen sink
You guys are great. Especially love when Scott gets "creative" with the rules of the games that Brett and Derrick don't let him get away with...great content all around! Keep 'em comin'! "Science with Gaunson" :)
Well being that's a huge hammer I'd love to see a giant nail molded then either take a stack of plywood sheets or a massive tree trunk and see if you can nail it in with 1 wack of the giant hammer.
Let’s bump this comment!
An extensible nail would be epic. Will they reach Canada?
Genius idea, I'd add progressively larger nails into thicker objects.
Or how about they hit a gigantic log with a steel wedge and and see if they can split the log with the hammer hitting the wedge!
Isn't that essentially what piledrivers do?
Stanford content with his daughter was definitely needed, absolutely wholesome stuff! 🥰 keep it up you guys, every Friday night is a classic 👍
If you heat the copper to glowing and quench it.... it will soften enough to flatten. Copper work hardens (hit it, it gets harder), the opposite of ferrous metals. Love your channel! Oh yeah almost forgot, ball bearings are usually made from 52100 and hardened. WAY harder than average building material.
Copper ball... Sheer destruction goes to Demolition Ranch. Artistic creation goes to How Ridiculous. And you guys gained a follower. I definitely enjoy your stuff.
12:43 Can we all just take a second to appreciate how adorable this kid is?
Sus
So cute! Reminds me of when my two were that age 😍
@@Khalidnader_ weirdo
It's hilarious that the attitude of the the guys hasn't changed since their first videos, just making things that clearly took so much effort and planning to put together feel off the cuff. Love to see it!
You guys should really team up with the Slow Mo Guys for this kind of projects
This was great, but Mat definitely did more damage to the copper ball.
Yes so true, and the way Matt was talking about balls was so funny
I swear, these guys have an unlimited budget.
Seriously? How do they afford all this?
i mean, they have… mh, no yea they do
Cuz God loves them
They budget religiously
@@ravenlockewinds4374 sponsors and TH-cam monetization
I propose that instead of smashing stuff (as gratuitously fun to watch as it is), can I suggest using the impact of the hammer to act as the catalyst to a mechanism... like what you have done before at the 45m tower to launch stuff into the air. at this place you have fewer constraints, a LOT of force and plenty of room for something to fly in the air. so (think: mousetrap); using the hammer to hit against a pivot or a fulcrum (thick steel plate?) resting on a heavy solid steel cylinder and something to flip into the air when the hammer drops. the sky is the limit - literally.
I second this idea
Giant chain reaction!! 😃
Brilliant
I was going to suggest the same! I APPROVE THIS IDEA!! :)
Launch a GoPro (and Rexy of course) and see just how high it can get
At 6:15 you can see the big hammer spark against the small hammers!
In the slowmo at 14:00 the dirt on the groundplate just stays in the air and then gets blown away from the current, that looks so dope
The best part of the video was seeing your daughter's pure joy playing with the snowman. Too cute.
Ikr!!!
^ and Herron talking to her, so adorable
I giant pile of flint would be amazing to hit with that hammer. The massive explosion and shower of sparks would be insane!
I was just thinking that or Magnesium strips.
It’s fire ban season now so we can’t do things that could start fires until our next winter (May onwards)
@@howridiculous We can wait. :P
@@howridiculous But we'll still burn down our warehouse with a handful of sparklers, right?
@@howridiculous we will wait until then.
Just watched Demolition Ranch and it was SPECTACULAR! Your design in the copper ball was awesome!
I would love to see you hit a tungsten cube with the giant hammer of doom... might want to upgrade the striking surface too!
I reckon you guys should smash a car. That would be absolutely amazing to watch a slow-motion of that. Keep up the great work guys!
I would LOVE that.
Yes absolutely!
How about hitting a sturdy coil spring, such as one from a car's suspension. An entire car may be cool too!
I would like to see this done on a hard service. The impact energy is being passed into the soft dirt and loosing a lot of the potential for destruction.
7:37 the gopro was like "oh look a mel- AAAAAAAAAAAAA"
I recommend a giant glass ball. I reckon the coney joney would be massive
Might even get a two-sided coney honey because it would get smashed from both sides. I’d love to see that.
might even get a coney joney on both sides
The coney joney woney effect again. If you know. You know 😏😏
Gotta do the coney joney ball, maybe it can actually be defeated when smashed between two surfaces
You guys truly fill the Mythbusters sized hole in my life. Can't wait til my Rexy shows up!
same here!
Yeah without that POS Adam Savage and just the young mythbusters that were always excited no matter the result
WOW, I wish I found these videos years ago. These have been awesome to watch.
The fact that you could see the inner core of the bowling ball as the outer one shattered first was fantastic.
I reckon dropping the hammer on one end of a seesaw could produce some serious launchage!
I was trying to come up with all the ways this mechanism could launch things. Like try to launch things into a basketball hoop
This is such a good idea
That's an awesome idea! I bet a one time use of one of those giant balloon launchers would be amazing, too. They're used in the water because no one knows where you're going to go!
Edit: many typos.
I bet they could launch a golf ball into space with that method...
My genius wife just said that you guys Should drive a giant nail!! Which I think is brilliant, I’d also like to see some fridges and washing machine‘s get hammered!!🙌😄😄
Agreed. This is just way too logical not to happen
i thought they where blurring something funny at 9:24 but it was just a fly on the lense xD
That clip of Stanford’s daughter was precious. She is adorable.
I would absolutely *love* to see the hammer smash a glass sphere. I want to know if it would completely shatter or create a coney joney.
I agree! Also old tube TVs and Furbies, or some combination of the two!
I know that when the hydraulic press channel did a glass sphere it completely shattered, but I do wonder if there's any difference between applying the force in a slow controlled manner like that and whacking it with a big hammer.
I agree with this also maybe a line-X Watermelon?
@@bennett214 Yes! I want to know if they can finally pop that thing and find out how horrible it smells on the inside. lol
@@forgotn42 That’s exactly what I was thinking!😂
Awesome video! An idea for future hammer smashing: an infrared or thermal camera to see how much heat gets generated when the hammer hits another metal object.
Love this idea! Burned rubber from the basketballs and the hot hammer... if you put a number on it, it's SCIENCE. :)
did you ask the hydraulic press dude the same thing??
Just watched the Demolition Ranch vid....I absolutely love both of these!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣♥️ from across the pond. 🇺🇲
A whole raw chicken would be sick under there!
P.S. I think Matt over at Demolition Ranch has you best on the copper ball. His tank did a number.
Your crew is EPIC. Simply fantastic, AND my students LOVED IT. Just a thought: The ball bearing indent on the hammer left its imprint on everything (aka giant lead nipple). Why not put a heavy steel plate on the bottom of the hammer with a giant engraved HR to imprint the things you smash?
Id love to see a stack of barrels full of different colored water. This is incredible
"Whaaat a stack-a barrels!"
Okay Derek with bridie is absolutely heart melting he’s ganna be great with his own kids
Watching Derrick interacting with Brett’s daughter was so cute, my heart 😭
Ikr!! it was adorable
I would like to acknowledge the editing of all these videos. Editor Jack and whoever else are amazing. You lads have assembled an amazing team. Love it! And you almost had my name!!!! So close!
I'm amazed nobody has mentioned how the anvil and at least one other thing got red hot from the hit!
@@nomadMik Tell your brother Peter that he was mentioned in the video.
I have to say with everything going on in the world its good to see some honest entertainment with the only purpose to have people enjoy, only recently discovered you guys but must have watched 90% of your videos. love ya keep it up xx
🥰🥰🥰
@@howridiculous A gigantic nail
@@loxternator6385 hes yes yes!
@@howridiculous
a Keg full of crap beer
DemolitionRanch Loves a Challenge - matt was the clear winner
Wonderful use of your time and resources. Future generations will sing songs of your accomplishment, starving children look upon your hammer with awe and wonder, as anyone should when they behold such an ingenious use of our time, effort, and resources. Especially considering this, the time in which we have basically nothing left to take care of as a species.
What a wonderful world, what a wonderful society! 👏👏👏
The best thing you could hit would be a nail scaled up to match the hammers size increase. It would serve 2 purposes, first it would look awesome, secondly, you would then essentially have a steel support pile to set the plate on reducing force lost to soil compression,and the slight blind spot created when the plate sinks into the ground.
Commenting to bump this up in the comment section. Good idea!
A normal sized nail would be funny too
That would be awesome!
That sounds awesome, ngl
True
Great stuff guys. My daughter and look forward to watching weekly. Hammer a 4-6ft steel nail into a large tree stump
11:04 'Tis but a flesh wound
6:16 WOAH. The Inertia of the bowling ball shards when the plate went down so fast caused the shards to all still be in one straight line
Amazing. Since you have a giant hammer, you guys should drop it on a giant nail. Or a crate full of regular nails. Is there possibly a world record for most nails driven by a single hammer blow?
I was thinking one of the giant darts should be a target. See if the hammer can drive it into the ground like a nail.
I want to see you guys smash a ballistic dummy like the ones they use on forged in fire. That way, you can see what would happen if someone got hit by it without actually hurting anyone.
Or forge a sword with the hammer XD
they would die
I like the looks of the Copper Ball (with the divots from the steel bearing that was left in the hammer and the bottom plate)...
I like watching Demolition Ranch and the things that Matt does on it and his other channel, but I think that you guys Won the Challenge (only because I don't think that Matt has a Tank in his personal arsenal)...
Good luck guys, Say Safe and Healthy !!!
Hammer: " GET REK'T!!!"
Anvil: "Fuck off... "
I would love to see giant hammer vs bulletproof glass, that would be so amazing
Ikr I agree 😎.
I wanna see a car or something
I would love to see a video with the build process and see all the engineering challenges that it took to make this hammer work.
Put gold in the hammer and watch next level $hit!
They could definitely profit from a 2nd engineering channel for the older viewers that are interested in that :)
that looks like what happens when you get "struck by the ban hammer" in a game
It warms my heart that my 2 favorite youtube channels not only know of each other but actively collaborate on content. But sorry boys Matt out did you this time.
This is insanely amazing guys. Here's a thought on something to smash: blocks of ice. And you could even freeze things inside them to see if the hammer can smash those or perhaps liberate them from the ice. 🤔🤓
Yes! Frozen versions would be cool!
How about an atlas stone? Could do different sizes or just a mid size one. Imagine the explosion of rubble
The kiwi co ads have got to be some of the cutest stuff on TH-cam
That child's delighted laughter genuinely made my day better
What about a glass ball? I'd be intrigued to see how that goes when it's being essentially hit on two sides
Shout out to your crew, i can only imagine what it took to put this all together.
Insane video, keep up the good work!
3:36 an Australian messing with one of their native spiders. Now that takes some courage.
I'm really curious what a solid block of rubber would do! And you know something people find pretty when you break them? Geodes!
This is incredible! Well done boys. It reminds me of hitting caps (from cap guns) with a hammer as a kid. Please hit a giant stack of caps (or blasting caps?) with this!
YES!
That would be crazy
Railroad Torpedos looked up.. They're these little packs that clamp on a rail and make a loud boom when the train runs over it to warn the train crew to shut down.
@@ElimiXebian Yes! I should have thought of those. My Dad used to work for the railroad. Maybe they start with caps and work their way up. Match heads are good too.
Now THAT is entertainment!🤣awesome stuff
TANK KILLED IT! DEMOLITIONRANCH FTW!
This against a giant pool of some non-Newtonian fluid could be interesting 🤔
vs oobleck.... sounds like a really good idea
It would just splash everywhere in little chunks I reckon. Good slowmo shot.
@@samus88 like what happened with hulk fist aka bruce
i audibly & involuntarily let out an "ohh yaaaah" after reading that.
When oobleck is over powered it separates the liquid and starch.
Guys.... Take the BIGGEST steel ball bearing you can find, ( THIS HAS TO BE DONE AT NIGHT OR DUSK) take a welding torch and heat it up till its white hot. Then have the hammer ready and SMASH the be-jeezus outta it !!!! That would be one for the books fellas. The Slowy would be EPIC !!
I love your guys vids, they always put a huge smile on my face. But I have to say, I think Matt wins.
Have a metalplate with a concave indentation which fits the hammerhead, then also add channels or grooves, så that when you smash fruit it will turn into a pulp and shoot out or up the grooves
Very fun video chaps. I don't know what you call that balloon bag thing that you jump on one end while flipping stuff off the other end is called but I would like to see you drop THE hammer on that with something heavy on the other end. :-)
A more sturdy base is in order, the objects transfer a ton of the energy when the base moves. Better base = more smashy!
"Better base = more smashy!" that sounds like something what would Gaunson say in his science monologues. XD
Vertigo Trigger Warning for the up-close of the bowling pins. Haha. ;-) Great video guys!!
3:14 I liked plights the best. Nothing like a stack of good ole Aussie plights.
Your daughter's reaction is precious thank you for sharing that.
These are some really good guys
Cutest girl in the world
GAME CHANGER!!!!
I can't wait to see what destruction this hammer brings in future videos! Might I suggest the unbreakable box? 🤔🤔🤔
love see more videos with this hammer
Spiders making casual appearances in videos...So Australia is actually hell.
Here we go!!!
Gg u got first
Lol
The fact that the ball bearing left an indent resulting in the rest of the drops having an appearance remniscient of that of a nipple is just perfect
Have you guys considered a hemispherical base and receiver so as the hammer hits taller objects it can square up with the object it's impacting?
Hmmmm. Carriker looks to have won on the copper sphere thing... The mega-hammer is pretty cool, but the minute he rolled out the tank, I think he might have nudged y'all out just a bit. Fun times... Keep having a blast! People here in California are jealous of the fun y'all are having ;-)
If I'm being completely honest, I usually zoom through the ads because I don't have the patience for 'em, but your little girl has gotta be the best possible spokesperson for a product flippin' ever. She's absolutely adorable and the complete joy she's had by making the project couldn't be more real. Love it.

You guys ought to have someone weld an HR in the divot on the hammer so that way no matter what it hits it has your "stamp of approval" if you will.
