Geez, the Nier Automata fanbase really needs to chill out
Pencils are just very tiny spears.
It’s not about the size… but how you use it XD
@@ScreenTested That's what she said...
to make you feel better
I’m so proud right now you get it… 😂
I want to see a cutting test with a pen to settle that "pen is mightier than the sword" claim.
Please pardon me I believe the old joke means writing ( the pen ) is more important that fights ( the sword)
@@AlphonsoFrett-xz6pi You are pardoned and humbly compelled to attend irony classes :-))
@@alexmashkin863it amazes me that some people feel the need to explain the obvious in response to jokes/puns. There are less senses of humor in the world than I could ever have imagined
Some underestimate the humble pencil but those of us who are wise see it for what it really is. THE PORTABLE STICK!! THE MOST LETHAL WEAPON OF ALL.
Live long and carry a portable stick! ~Shad D. Roosevelt, probably.
weird how i read your line with my own in-head voice normally... until the caps lock.... that part i read in Shad screaming about stick voice (from nunchucks videos and the mighty stick followup video - i know he uses that voice on other videos in other moments too when he is excited but the tone always reminds me of those videos first)
uk to ban pencils now.
The only thing deadlier than a pencil are pencil nunchucks... Double the pencil, double the deadliness.
Twice the pencil , double the fun
Sounds cool, but don't ya ever show it to Shad...
Or give it to him just to see him flip out
Throwback to Zombie Go Boom stabbing straight through a zombie skull with a pencil. Twice.
As someone who has been stabbed by a pencil, they are viable.
dude
@@elios7623He’s not alone, and he’s not wrong.
I don’t know about viable. I’ve been stabbed in the leg with a pencil, it got about halfway through the pencil’s total length into me, and the worst I got was an infection.
@@VidelxSpopovich Legs are pretty tough, go for the neck.
@@skyfifer5443 I totally agree, but I think the neck is the ONLY viable option with a pencil.
Dark Knight scene flashback
Let's not forget the vanishing pencil trick, from The Dark Knight. ;)
With a 2B yellow pencil, you can really make a point about its lethality!
Years before John Wick coming out there was this TH-cam channel called zombie go boom. They tested regular pencils against human head analog dummies and found them quite deadly.
Zombie go boom was great
Zombie GO Boom pencil videos: 2014 and 2015. Another mighty pen from media that im surprised isn't mentioned much or at all in the comments or wasn't mentioned in video: Dark Knight when Joker does the magic trick. That is from 2008. Am pretty sure there are older examples (maybe some old kungfu movie or some violent comic story) but Joker should have at least some mentions when it comes to pens.
@@samamies88 well, in the movie he stabs a pencil into a folding table (sheet metal or maybe plywood, idk) and then slams a guy's head unto the table, pushing the pencil through the table and unto the floor. So the pencil isn't used a weapon in this case.
A pencil killed a zombie on Zombie Go Boom; through the temple.
And through the forehead; they got it to work.
4:51 It’s always nice to see Nate again 😊
from what i remember of an episode of zgb, yes pencils can be weapons.
In the "Wick movies," two of the pencils were being supported by solid surfaces (desk and wall). One was driven into the bottom of the jaw then the larynx. One was through the eardrum into the brain. One more was driven through the back of the neck, probably severing at least part of the spinal cord. I think...it's been a while since I watched the movie. In the movie PRESIDIO, Sean Connery used his LEFT THUMB on a badass biker dude. So, yeah, ya done good, again, Tyranth...
I can attest that pencils can be a weapon, I got fucking stabbed in the arm at high school by some crazy psycho.
Im sorry
But that is some crazy piece of lore you have going on
Tyranth says "for the most part" more than anyone I've ever heard speak. I'm here for it.
For the most part I think others would agree 😂
Tyranth, you should know what's better than a pencil : A STICK
How bout a magic trick? I’m going to make this pencil-disappear. Tada! It’s - gone
If Tony and Boromir ever swap war stories, I think Boromir is going to give Tony some weird looks.
In conclusion, a suit jacket is the ultimate pen defence.
Pencils? What about the "Shoot 'em Up" carrots!?
I know tyrant is aware, but got to say
Pencil = no lead (just graphite and clay mix)
Yeah but it’s a John wick episode so it’s lead like bullets
its great to see how "normal" Tyranth is. Here he talks more down to earth, quiet, sombre.
When he is on Shad's channels, he has to yell, talk more eccentric.
In school a kid stabbed himself with his pencil on accident, it did get infected and may have killed him if he didn't get some Tetra. So yes could be deadly. Anything poked in the eye or ear can do damage.
That test was murder
I regret nothing with this awful pun.
Most pencils sold in North America are made of a soft wood, mostly incense cedar. It’s resistant to bugs and rot and doesn’t splinter when sharpened. Some cheaper pencils are made from pine.
Such woods, like all woods, are stronger along the grain than across it so grip is very important as you discovered. The target matters too also as you found out.
The most believable John Wick strike was to the back of the neck where it meets the head, presumably between the vertebra to hit the spinal cord to cause paralysis or death. Either outcome would be acceptable in his situation.
You didn’t mention Heath Ledger’s Joker killing a gangster with a pencil through the eye socket into the brain. That’s also believable.
All in all a pencil wouldn’t be my first choice but military close combat instructors teach that in the right hands anything is a lethal weapon.
Speaking of pencils, I still remember in elementary school the smell of cedar and graphite being shaved when I sharpened my pencil in the manual sharpener on the wall...
I’ve been stabbed in the skull with a pencil. It didn’t go through, but I did bleed. School fights can be vicious…
This video should have had a graphite violence warning.
So the "Navy suit for War" is the best defence against maniacs with pencils 😂❤
They recommend always carrying a pen in more than one branch of the US military. Hopefully you have access to something better than that if you get in a bad situation, but it could have a very small chance to save your life. I wasn't in the military, but was told this by a Marine I used to play table-top RPG's with, and he told me that he was told this in boot camp.
I know a guy who knew a guy, too. He wasn't in the army, though.
As an ex soldier, yeah he's fucking with you or full of shit. Every soldier is carrying at very least a pocket knife on their person. In the field, they ae carrying a much larger knife.
You carry a pen on you to actually, you know. Write shit down. It has nothing whatsoever to do with combat. The Jarhead was just trying to sound badass, like all the Marine meatheads try to do lol
Pencils can be pretty gnarly. Before I threw a desk at him, an idiot in high school used to stab me in the leg with his pencil. It went through denim and left lead marks for months.
Graphite, presumably named for its usage in writing.
i love it, the aluminum pencil, is chungus. tyrant's pencil is itself, a thick one that he made, it could be a meme at some point.
And for my next trick, I'm going to make this pencil... Disappear
When I was in a bad state of mind, I cut myself with a pencil, up to down.
Conclusion: the basterds are VERY sharp
I remember when I was six or seven, after just sharpening my pencil, I was playing with it, and bit a tiny bit of pressure on the sharpened tip with my thumb. Next thing I knew, I was screaming in pain because I had impaled myself on my pencil. It did not go in far, but, the tip did break off inside my thumb, and yes, it had drawn blood.
Pencils, deadly, maybe in extreme situations, but, they can still cause damage.
The number of times the clinic I worked at while in the US Army was visited by marines who hurt themselves on pencils and pens was much higher than one would want to believe.
The formerly fitted Suit Jacket was Screen Tested and Teased (at 5:10 ) as a bonus! Thanks for the double feature!
Wish he would have done a “fat guy in a little coat” scene with that jacket
The Pencil is mightier than the Sword... I'm so mad that you beat me to that punch line...
Zombie go boom actually tested this and managed to stick the pencil through a human skull in one go
Group with guns: *laugh at man with tiny spear*
Man with tiny spear: *laughs standing over dead group*
Reminds me of how Style Theory tested shoes.
Humans have killed with nearly everything. Personal favorite being a sneaky method with snow.
Thank you for the video Tyranth 👍🏻
The first movie scene that came to my mind, was Joe Pesci going berserk with a pen in Casino... It's not a pencil but close enough 😉
I need to rewatch that movie, it's so good
The suit is mightier than the pencil.
"The pencil is mightier than the sword."
5:18 "Fat guy in a little coat."
I remember how one time my pencil dropped on the floor, I kicked it by mistake and a bit of grafite stuck in my foot. It went only through a sock but I imagine you can stab with a sharp pencil at uncovered areas very succesfully.
Technique is everything.
If it was easy to do, John wouldn't have been so feared for having done it.
Let us not forget the soldier credited with the only official kill with an mre spoon
There is a reason you use felt tip pens in prison, not pencils. You'd want it shorter than these for the reasons demonstrated. You stab it in, then slam down on the butt of it to drive it deeper.
I have a scar on my forearm where it was punctured with a #2 pencil. With enough force and determination a pencil can pierce human flesh.
A pencil isn't a weapon? Anything can be a weapon in the right hands... including those hands.
Yeah if you'll notice in the fight scene that we actually see him use a pencil in; he nevers stabs anywhere clothed, only eyes, ears, throat, and soft face parts.
I know they work.. cus i got stabbed through my thigh to the bone in high school.
The only thing that broke was the tip.. and its still in there haha
For those wondering.. it was a special needs kid who was upset.. and i was the closest person to them lol
I was wearing Denim Jeans.
You need one of those Eagle pencils. Those things could almost bend 90° without breaking.
hi tyranth could you do a vid on spiked shields like those from elden ring for example?
Honestly really love this channel reminds me of hacksmith but the testing is so much more involved every video surprises me more and more the blades of chaos was one were I was truly amazed at how well you tested it with all the game moves and they actually came back it blows my mind but it’s because you put everything into your testing it’s perfect
I remember stepping on a pencil barefoot when I was like 7 and it went into my foot. Only went a few layers under the skin but still went like 2 inches inside. (Pencil was parallel and not perpendicular to my foot, that's how it penetrated 2 inches but only a few layers of skin.)
now class; take out your #2 pencil
*doom music plays*
I got enough 'experience' to say. Yes. A large resounding yes.
It's been tested many times. There are softer and thinner areas on the skull that the pencil can pass through
Awesome video Tyranth. Gonna go on a limb and say Tyranth you likely hit harder than Wick. That looked and sounded like a trip to the hospital regardless.
Some might be tempted to argue that an arrow is just a large pencil with feathers :P
Zombie go boom did this too. Still fun seeing it done by Tyranth.
the aluminium pencil you made looks more like a Kubotan
My favourite weapon of maths instruction.
Nice vid. Here is a idea that may work for this channel. How resistance is different everyday cloths are to weapons. Tee shirt vs tee shirt and polo vs tee shirt, polo and winter Jacket vs Biker leather ect.
i haven't watched the video yet but i just wanted to say i have seen zombie go boom and the slingshot channel test the pencil and it worked in both of those videos so it should also work in your too, i also saw someone put a small hole in a baking tray with one
In good old days, any kids who was stabbed by pencil knew how "deadly" it can be. I had my hand stabbed by accident, and it was really really bad (let's say the word penatration).
pre-video:
- a pencil is wood and carbon
- the wooden part has a pointed tip
- a pencil technically is a stake with a carbon tip
- stake is a wooden dagger
- wood implies stick
- stick is best weapon
post-vid:
- it didn't pen(cil)trate
- next up, try it with different types of pens, I can imagine a fountain pen could do some damage considering the metallic arrow-like tip
- seems like pencils only work when "injected" perfectly perpendicular, otherwise they bend/snap
Thumbs up just for that intro
strong opening.
As someone who has used a pencil as a weapon… Yes.
They don’t last long, carry several.
🎵 Fat guy in a little coat, Fat guy in a little coat, Fat guy in a little coat 🎵
If you don't get the reference watch the comedy movie Tommy Boy.
The beginning made me think my phone was ringing. Thanks for the video and have a great day.
I want to show you a magic trick …
zombie go boom a while ago now did pencils as part of a back to school special episode
they learned in said episode that pencils are frighteningly effective
like 1 strike 1 kill level of deadly
and the thing is they wherent hitting the soft part of their zombie torsos they where strinking the side and top of the skull and they where penetrating the skull itself
Great. Now they are going to ban assault pencils
I actually have a few pencils with the brand name "Black Warrior".
I’m ready for some Castlevania builds.
I got stabbed in the chest with a pencil when I was in middle school. Still have the graphite mark on my chest.
Look up the old OSS manuals, they teach how to use a pencil to kill. Is it a good weapon, not particularly, better than nothing though.
Humans dont like pain & blood is under pressure...so yea, with aim, they are very deadly.
Zombie go Boom had a video in which they found that pencils move through their bone analog like butter. something with the lead causing microfractures idk.
I'd probably aim for the eyes and jugular. But that's just me.
through the length of a pencil's graphite is as hard as diamond. the sole deference between them is a fact, that graphite has multilayer structure, when the diamond is solid.
the piersing capacity of a pensil is dissapointing for such a material
It may not be lethal, but it can be painful. Which is enough distraction for Mr Wick.
If that was a person at the end, your pencil MIGHT have been able to do more damage. With the mass and presumably balance of a real person, it wouldn't just fall over and deplete all the force of the strike. The best way to account for that (given cost, effectiveness, etc.) is to simply have someone hold the dummy still, or put it against a wall or something so all your force actually goes into it. That said, yeah, I don't think standard pencils are getting through unless you hit a really weak point. And actually exposed target. Eye, ear canal, or throat maybe. I'm also not convinced it's necessarily lethal, depending on where you hit. I mean, the easiest place on the throat to penetrate is probably where they do tracheotomies... so like... probably not a lethal spot. Pretty sure assassins/hitmen could get something purpose-built for that, instead.
i mean, go watch the movies and where he hits. he doesnt hit them on the chest or anything. he hits the hands, then the ears, throat, eye, lip, ect. so places where it actually would do legitimate damage.
thats why i loved that scene. it showed us the "he killed them with a pencil, A FUCKING PENCIL. WHO DOES THAT?!>!" from the first one and its totally and 100% realistic for where he shoved the pencils.
As anyone who has any experience with a bladed weapon understands, any tool can be used to harm someone. Examples: farming implements are the origin of most "ninja" weapons. Or the fact a pearing knife can harm someone if used improperly.
So a pencil or pen being lethal, I'm not suprised.
Pencils can definitely be dangerous, I remember back in high school when one of my classes was stabbed with one and had to go to hospital...
Also a teacher had a metal bin thrown at her, bruising her entire arm. Fun times. Great school!
Edit: Also damn your shoulders man haha! You make me want to work out more (I don’t have a suit for future comparisons though 🤔 - which also won’t happen because effort)
TH-camr Zombie go boom (or zgb) did a test with a pencil and the test was brutal. I think saying a pencil isn't lethal is wrong. They used a slightly harder skull analog then a human skull and it went right through.
If an Icicle can be fatal, then a pencil can also
But it seemed to me that according to the lore (of the film franchise at least) they make these suits bulletproof and generally durable and reliable. I don’t really remember about piercing and cutting...
This was a really interesting one. But the most epic, movie, pencil kill, is still by The Joker, in The Dark Knight. 😉 Musical greetings from Belgium, Gunther (singer and lyrics writer of Gabriel Scar)
Then i take a mechanical pencil, a sturdier one especially, would do the trick. 😅
Of course John Wick used it to deny people their rights to breath, but just using a pencil to strike places where the skin is thin is a pretty decent stand in for something like a kubotan. Not to mention when it breaks.. well more ouch on the way.
A walther pdp chambered in # 2 pencils.
I guess tyranth needs to join me on the cut...
