I'm not here to tell you that you didn't do it correctly, I'm just gonna say buy a microwave that you can use for just your experiments. Only use it outside the house(like plug it in with an extension cord in the backyard!) Then you can microwave all kinds of things in future videos! I have shared a lot of your videos, my kids 16 y/o boy and 9 y/o girl love them and lots of reactions come from many other who comment the best things! Love this family!!! Keep making those videos...
It conducts electricity, however it is an insulator, because it conducts the electricity very poorly, metals are conductors, since they conduct electricity well...
@@pennholderness7142 you and your family are blessed by angels since you haven't blown yourselves or your beautiful home up with the shenanigans you all pull! Love you all and love every minute of it! 😉
*sings... When there's a diamond in, your microwave, supposedly came, from a pencil shaved, who you gonna call? Craft Busters! (The beginning of your next parody, to the tune of the Ghostbusters theme song or "Bad" by Michael Jackson) Awesome video guys, just awesome!!!!! 😀😀😀
Graphite, archaically referred to as plumbago, is a crystalline form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a hexagonal structure. It occurs naturally in this form and is the most stable form of carbon under standard conditions. Under high pressures and temperatures it converts to diamond
@@eileenwelter90 I wasn't saying that you can make a diamond this way I'm just stating that it's possible with the proper conditions to make a diamond from graphite, but definitely not in this manner. And also pointing out that graphite is carbon not lead so not metal at all
We love your videos so much! My family and I have been watching your videos like crazy and just love them! I love that my 4 through 10-year-old can watch the videos with me and I don't have to worry about them hearing or seeing something they shouldn't :-) Thanks so much for making the videos! Hope you guys are doing well!
One of my favorite cook books ever has a recipe for squid. The recipe starts (paraphrasing) "Nobody teaches you how to clean a squid. Here's how you clean a squid." OMG the "so how do you get the lead...?" is SO the same.
@@emilyraney8314 I litterly wat had the video on Instagram right before i came here, and now I'm like " I'm so glad they tried it out before I burn my house down" 😂
Y’all are hilarious! I saw this same experiment in a ridiculous video compilation. The best part was a clip that demonstrated to take mushrooms, peel the “skins” from the caps with tweezers, lay the pieces out in an overlapping fashion, put salt all over it, leave it out in the sun for a day. What do you end up with (according to the video)? Vegan leather! Then a wallet magically appeared. 🙄 Aside from the diamond from pencil lead, honorable mention goes to putting a rock in water, microwaving it, it cracks open and crystals are inside. (Think geode). Nope. Don’t waste your time or subject your microwave to this one either! 🤪
Diamond are made actually when charcoal has a lot of pressure and it’s actually pretty hard to do it scientists haven’t even made something strong enough to be big diamonds they only get tiny diamonds from it
Oh, you guys watched Superman 3.😄 He would have made a diamond in the rough, but in that movie he crushed it into a perfectly cut diamond...yea, right 😆
At 3:24 you can see the tv and they have a roku like me and I know because that’s the same screen I have when it’s on and it doesn’t show your channels!

When I was an ignorant 10 year old I put a can of hersheys syrup in our microwave to warm it up. Fortunately, my mom caught my mistake before it ran for too long and taught me to pour it in a microwave safe container with the admonition to NEVER put metal in the microwave. Within a month of that incident I saw gremlins, (can't remember if it was first or second) and the nasty gremlins threw some metal pots in a microwave and ran it and it exploded. It made a lasting impression on me. So when you saw sparks I was seriously wondering of your microwave was going to get ruined.
Hahahahahahahaha. So, today the Wall Street Journal posted an article about life hacks and how they don't really work. And it specifically goes into this one, which actually was passed off as real when in fact it originated as an April Fool's day joke on Instructables. I know because my husband is the originator of the joke. WSJ interviewed him. He won a contest. We have the t-shirt. Hope your microwave is ok.
I love your videos thank you so much for making them. I also wanted to suggest what you should do in your next video: can you please make another spa day video where you buy a bunch of beauty stuff and then go home and do a spa day! I also wanted to ask a few questions: Can Lola or PC play any musical instruments? , How many videos did you make in all? If you have any time please write back Thanks, Your fans
Found a way that ACTUALLY WORKS! Step one: place hot coal in peanut butter Step two: place in ice and freeze for 24 hours Step three: place in warm water for a little bit Step four: take off peanut butter and wow! I did it and it works!
Could you use lead from a mechanical pencil to avoid whittling for hours on end? It's also possible that you should only have used one piece of graphite to avoid them rubbing together. But you're right, this is a complete and utter hoax.
I know this was two years ago, but they're right... With enough heat and pressure, you can turn the inside of a pencil into a diamond. Nice try...you need a blast furnace and an industrial press 😀 That is odd, I have no idea why graphite would explode in a microwave...unless it had metallic contaminates.
You need pressure, not temperature. And the oven would make more sense, because microwaves don't exactly ''warm the food'', they send waves that excite the water molecules in the food, that's why metal explodes. A hydraulic press would make sense, but you won't get diamonds until millions of years and a lot of pressure.
So, I found the original video online and they crushed up the graphite into little pieces then they added some water in one experiment and oil in the other experiment
Did you know you could buy graphite sticks at a craft store? (although maybe hacking up pencils with knives was the SAFE part of the experiment... 🤔🤔🤔)
I love how penn kept doing it over and over again even though it kept lighting up. 😂
Typical guy, huh? Poor Kim, LOL!
Since when do "diamonds " come out fully cut and polished? I think not.
Dora Hale Ha, ha good point
lol but it didn’t? At least, it wasn’t polished lol still looked dirty to me. 🤷🏻♀️
@Peggy Manley yes
@@hellomeesh polished just means incredibly smooth so when the surface is clean it can in the case of diamonds reflect light if they had cleaned that it would because they don't cut diamonds and then just not polish them
Yes. Usually you can waste up to one third of the stone in cutting it.
I put my diamonds in the microwave now I have a bunch of pencils...
Cool me too
Lmao 😂😂
😝
fission...?
Yeah

Brooke Cain I was thinking that too.
I was wondering how they would feel when the microwave needs replacing
I can say from experience that CD's look great in a microwave you don't care about.
Well that's a great plan cause i didn't think of it
Brooke Cain My kids are the same age and gender!
Next time try it with the camera inside the microwave.
Kim: "Don't give him any ideas!!!"
I agree. We want to see footage from the inside :)
Fun fact: graphite is a non metal that conducts electricity
Ah! Thanks! I definitely never knew that!
It conducts electricity, however it is an insulator, because it conducts the electricity very poorly, metals are conductors, since they conduct electricity well...
graphite is a form of carbon and diamonds are also a form of carbon
Fun fact: water is also
Kale is a nonmetal and its sparks in the microwave as well!
I loved the other guy holding the oven mitt over his privates to protect them..LOL
RIGHT? So funny
"What happend to us is we almost blew our house up In 7 seconds" that is my new favorite quote
Lmfao! Right?!
I got too close to my phone to watch it in the microwave and jumped when it started sparking 😂🙈
I was legit worried for your safety when it started sparking. Glad your house is still standing. 👍
for now...
SAME! And thank you
@@holdernessfamilylaughs tried it too, & had exactly same reactions in our house - & that smell!!

I have to agree with Penn it definitely looked cool and yes it sounded like the terminator! 😂
I kept seeing this and instantly thought “but there is metal fragments in graphite pencil lead...”
Graphite, archaically referred to as plumbago, is a crystalline form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a hexagonal structure. It occurs naturally in this form and is the most stable form of carbon under standard conditions. Under high pressures and temperatures it converts to diamond
Ashley Mcgaha a microwave has little to no pressure.

I was warming my Arby’s burger up and neglected to remember the wrapper is foil. My microwave did the same thing! I nearly peed myself! 😂
Thank you for showing us the results. My question is how did your microwave fair????? I absolutely love your channel!!!

They should have used Mechanic pencil lead. It probably would have been easier than chopping pencils up or widdling them.
Exactly
It doesn't work either way so pointless
Thats what i thought after a bit. I probably wouldn't have until after trying the way they did though, lol
I love ya'lls videos! Also, I really want to see the whole play that Penn starred in lol. He killed it!
I love that the how-to video produced a perfectly cut and polished diamond. 😂
Also microwaves do not give off heat. They give off Micro Waves that cause molecules to move which then causes heat.
Don’t Do This At Home!! Lol 😂
David The Apple Tech Guy fine I’ll do it at work!!
It looked like a portal was going to open up!
glad we came here first, my son wanted me to do it this morning , and I still have a working microwave
glad to watch this first cause, while i knew it wouldn't work, I probably woulda ruined my microwave trying it.
One of my favorite cook books ever has a recipe for squid. The recipe starts (paraphrasing) "Nobody teaches you how to clean a squid. Here's how you clean a squid." OMG the "so how do you get the lead...?" is SO the same.
I love how even when it starts to spark he keeps doing it to try to show everyone 😂
2:53 that's why my parents told me not to put anything like an aluminum or like lead in the microwave or else it will spark like that.🤣😂😂
They didnt put the water on the plate with it
Seems like something 5 minute crafts came up with...
It's actually Blossom
Oh my gosh yes!!!!!
Angela Fink yeah

Interesting 🧐. Also another win that all Penn did was burp and not 💨

Just so you know, you should NEVER put metal in your microwave!😂 you can start a fire 🔥😂😂😂
I salute to all those who trying this
Asadullah Mughal if I may ask why? Is it dangerous?
@@kurtgobang5329 no its not dangerous but not possible
That massive release of pressure in the form of gas! AWESOME!
They forgot to add the water!!!!!! That's why it sparked!!! 😮
Buy mechanical lead pencil refills. Lol 😂 🤣 😂 🤣
it’s the metal in the graphite cause sparks then boom great video
Oh, you guys watched Superman 3.😄

You were supposed to put water in it
You guys are so transfixed on diamonds. First the coal, now this when will you ever learn? Mind you, this WAS hilarious.
our microwave plate cracked. . . .and no diamonds here either
Found a way that ACTUALLY WORKS!
Step one: place hot coal in peanut butter
Step two: place in ice and freeze for 24 hours

We thought about that but we wanted to recreate it as they did it. And yes, we separated them, and their plate had a few on there.
The diamond was faceted in the original video...first sign that something is not right.
Go to Staples and pick up some lead for mechanical pencils. This comes unwrapped no wood to remove
How to burn down your house 101
exactly
I love you guys sooooooo much 😘😍🙂
BOGUS! HOW COULD YOU FALL FOR THAT?!
Oh!!! Oh no no no!!!- Penn
You needed to ad water
I wanted to try this but now I know I will not be doing this 😂
You guys never added the water! It may have worked! Hey, I'm not upset. At least there was a video.
I put my diamonds in the fridge and now I have lots of pencils
I mean...of this were even a real thing...you could go get graphite sketching pencils....the square ones without the wood. Lol
Actually the middle of a pencil is Grafite and so is a diamond so it does and it doesn’t make sense at the same time cause that makes sense.
I love craft busters
Spoiler alerts
It doesn’t work!!!!🤣

Y’all did not add water
they didnt even put water lol
Actually, they only pay 1/6 of the original price they other stores sell them
WOW I'm JUST Glad YOUR microwave didn't BLOW up
You forgot to add water?
You forgot the water!!!
You didn’t add water..
Penn cuts himself and says: oh I cut myself
Me when i cut myself: Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh I cut myself
Kim: comments on how we did it wrong go
Me: you guys can’t say nothing because you didn’t even do it
I love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100% i watch your videos for the whole day
I so needed this today. Too funny.
Loved it! 👍
What happened to science class? Because you learn how diamonds form and it's not from pencil's 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Get salt and hand sanitizer mix it and you’ve got cristals
I was literally at the edge of my seat hoping that it wouldn’t suddenly blast while they continued to heat it.
4:10 some random guy peeking his head in the microwave
I think they used water 💦 ❤️😂
I think they used that after it was microwaved.
Please do not burn down your lovely house to prove to stupid people that not everything on the internet is real.
My microwave didn’t sparkle, but I didn’t get any diamond and I feel sorry for my pencil.
So, I found the original video online and they crushed up the graphite into little pieces then they added some water in one experiment and oil in the other experiment
You made plasma. WITHOUT KNOWING :D
Love all your videos! I wish you & your family much continued success!
Did you know you could buy graphite sticks at a craft store? (although maybe hacking up pencils with knives was the SAFE part of the experiment... 🤔🤔🤔)
You all should microwave old CDs and see what happens. It is so awesome.
Ok im gonna search that now 💿
Idea sharpen the pencil then break it
