Chemistry time, yes backyard science, also Nilered. Nile red? this is maybe a tag thing. clout time.
A big thank you to Patreons for the support as always, and for sticking with me even though I've said I'm abandoning everyone like a moron. You are all the best:

A big thankyou to Daniel and Georgia for helping out with this video too, helping me make a video quicker than I ever have before (even though I think it shows, but sometimes you just gotta finish something and put it out, oh well). Especially amazing the Daniel was in the 2011 footage and in the 2021 footage, it's nearly 10 years apart and I'm still making bad chemistry videos but he's still happy to help out and I think that's very cool, you are a good friend.

Keeping glass away from explosives is definitely a good idea. I once had some glassware that had carbon on it and chromic acid wouldn't shift it so I and another (who shall remain nameless) made what turned into dimanganese heptoxide and it wasn't really happy at having so many oxygens around it so it got rid of some of them, as it tends to, and around six months later, we realised that we weren't shouting to each other any more. I wrote about this in the book Let the Devil Wear Black, writing under the name James F Linden. A few years later, I took the trouble to learn British Sign language in case something catastrophic happened with my hearing. basically, it was in a double fume cupboard with a glass dividing wall and we never found any of that divider - we think it just powdered. I had glass in my hand and I still carry glass around inside me over 40 years later.
Holy shit
That's terrifying.

When I was young (about 45 years ago) we used to make "Touch Powder" by mixing Cloudy Ammonia with Iodine Crystals to make a wet paste.
We would then put drops of it on the driveway so when dad reversed out they would detonate and scare the crap outta him, which was fun, but getting the flogging from him for doing it, wasn't so much fun.. but ya live n learn.

Just want to clarify something:
Nitrogen Trichloride didn't assassinate Michael Faraday, it was his mentor Sir Humphrey Davy. Though they were both still injured by it later. In fact, with the amount of damage it caused to Davy, it was the actual cause for Faraday to become his sort of handyman and assistant.
But the greatest example of Nitrogen Trichloride lethality was to its founder, Pierre Louis Dulong, who lost two fingers and blinded one eye to it.
Maybe a Faraday cage would have helped ???😉😉
3:13 brings back bad memories of working in a very hot and humid warehouse and trying to package a hygroscopic product into buckets. It usually took about thirty minutes before there was sweat trickling steadily out of the gloves, and if you ripped one, you'd just splatter everywhere.
Also, the product we were packaging was yellowish, which should've been my first warning.
the videos of "James Cambell" holding up the rapidly-forming high explosive in a glass container and just... shaking it around... genuinely scared the shit out of me lmao
He blew off part of his hand and still hasnt got the point either. He is more than a bit of a darwin award canidate. Its not just the glass container, its the fact thats its an unpredictable explosive and he shoudnt be handling it in this manner at all.
God bless that lunatic 🤗

Our science teacher Mr Clarke made 'touchpowder' with us at the end of 4th year (Australia in the 1970s).
We dried it in the lab room on filter paper and before it became dangerous, took it outside put the paper on the ground and walked on it.
As the paste dried on the sole of our shoes it went off with a crackle and pop.
Those were the days😆
7:48 holy shit that's the same music that Technology Connections uses
3:44 The mere _suggestion_ of bonking it with your stick caused it to blow. This isn't touch powder, it's clairvoyant powder.
Obvious thiotimoline contamination.

I was thinking about high explosives, and I had remembered that my high school chemistry teacher in '09 taught us how to make high explosives from acetone and hydrogen peroxide.
Apparently, they didnt start rolling out explosive detectors that could sense it (as it doesn't contain nitrogen) until 2016ish.
Ah yes, diacetone peroxide. The explosive of choice for terrorists everywhere.
TATP is very easy to detect, especially if someone attempts to transport it. Just install a speed bump.
"but he also adds in a complete disregard for his own life" LMFAO

@@Aztesticals dimethylcadmium is an analogue of dmm, but as it is lighter it is easier for it to permeate the body and to react, making it more dangerous and toxic.

Having been an EMT before, I can tell you that if you take gloves off whilst you have sweaty hands, it damn hard to put new ones on. Obviously this is important when doing patient care so, if you do have to take off one pair of gloves and put on another, have some paper towels handy to thoroughly dry off your hands or have some of those gloves with powder in them (which they never ever have at the hospital).
Just wanted to come back to this vid to inform you all that James Cambell has lost at least 2 fingers last month in his pursuit of science. The man cannot be stopped and frankly his dedication to the explosive arts is commendable.
Got to admire the man's dedication.

1:40 that is possible with certain headphones, not ones like these that use a normal mic, but with those which use bone conduction, these are actually sometimes used at construction sites for communication as when bone conduction mics are used they only pick up the sounds in your jaw, aka what you say, and not background sounds.
I imagine that if you're physically holding a chainsaw you're likely transferring those vibrations into your jawbone. It's not that far away after all.

WHAT IS THE WORST CHEMICAL???
I think the worst part of Tom getting screwed by the algorithm is that none of these explosives are even useful for anything nefarious. They are all generally pretty unstable, making any would be ne'er-do-well more likely to blow up their shitty plastic cups rather than be able to do some sort of attack with these substances.
These substances are basically only useful to screw around with exactly as Tom does.
As you said about how when dry it detonates, it reminded me of how one of my science teachers in school mention something about a compound that you put it on stairs and wait for it to dry and then it pops when stepped on
Ah, piss-themed yellow chemistry with top-notch memes. What a great season finale. Can't wait for season two.
Also can't wait for the inevitable tier-list of yellow chemicals to be made.
Honestly James Campbell pulled the absolute strongest power move by taking a two year break from TH-cam. Just upload a bunch of videos about energetics then two years of people thinking you died then come back. Honestly can’t wait for “did he kill himself” season 2.

Just to let ya know, YT did recommend your White Phosphorus video a few days ago and i am so happy it did! thank you for all this amazing content. even if i am at a negative chemistry education 8D
I never forget the "get sweaty" step. Therefore, I think I've earned my honorary chemistry degree...that's not technically an oxymoron, right?
During my courses for a pool operator's license (yes thats a thing lol) they taught us about trichloramines and how to factor the total chlorine from the "free" (unreacted) chlorine. The goal of which is to keep at a ratio of 1-5ppm. then i worked at an olympic pool and we would just have to ignore that because would have so many patrons (pissy kids) in the summer that if we kept it at 5ppm it would all be depleted within one or two hours. So uh yeah being indoors watching a pissy pool for nearly a decade and having my eyes nose and skin feel like they were dragged through a salt bed was an experience to say the least. the smell stuck to me for a week+ after i would leave for school each semester.
Smh parents don't teach their kids to hold it in
Public pools are... Eugh.
That really is taking the piss
This editing style is like if bill wurtz had a degree in chemistry
I love how NCl3 is not only yellow, it's the exact same shade of yellow as actual pee.
Seeing my two favorite chemists from TH-cam together made my urge to watch you guys collaborate on a video much larger.
Also, this video made the episode of South Park with the pee in the pool so much more funny.
As a post-doctoral chemist, I wonder why this channel doesn't have more than a million subs

Very enjoyable video, best of luck with your internship!
thanks mate!!
As soon as you said you knew someone qualified enough to talk about piss chemistry I already knew who you were gonna talk about
This one reminds me of the person sitting next to me in the lab wanting to make TNT through Friedel craft pathway i.e. TCT. Not having done any background study himself, and not realising far more unstable, suggested he talk to the professor before proceeding, meanwhile heading towards the bar for two dollar jugs, as I was already ahead on the QSAR practical supposed to be doing, and wasn't hanging round for his site experiments!
Also reminds me of an inorganic class that didn't cover their flasks on the Friday afternoon, dried out over the weekend, Prof opened the door on Monday to be blown through the door behind him and that entire lab and building now a massive chemical hazard with anything made of glass shattered and the contaminants everywhere! Chemistry so much fun! Favourite poster on the wall, don't be afraid to ask DUMB questions, they prevent STUPID mistakes!
After 13 years, you have finally answered my question on why I kept sneezing after I went out of my childhood swimming lessons at a specific pool, thank you.
The ocean is nature's bin for plastic!
For science!
Soo.. if chlorine + urine is a detonation risk to swimming pools, and oceans contain much larger quantities of both chemicals, then presumably there's some peeing point where the whole thing goes 'fuggit' and explodes. And given UV triggering angry responses, Australia's at greatest risk of being ground zero for the peepocalypse given the holey ozone, and Aussie's love of watersports. And would adding plasticisers to our oceans increase, or decrease their explosion risk?
@@brolohalflemming7042 Finally someone asking the real questions!
Yup!
@@brolohalflemming7042 Given the context, you may need to clarify exactly what "watersports" refers to.

Many, many, many years ago when I was young and stupid I used tincture of Iodine disinfectant and supermarket ammonia, and it worked perfectly fine. Precipitated these fine black crystals that when dried out and lightly poked sounded like a rat trap going off. Scary how accessible it is.
could you explain how to do this, just for fun? and of course, how to do it safely so any idiots online dont blow their hands off. which i wouldnt do.
@@bedi3983 No, I don't think I will.
