Yo yo yoooooooooo

No problem your vids are great
first reply
Picks up pan of *LEAD*
"Wow that's really heavy!"
xD
"Lead"? No litmus tests were shown.
Lead is a really dense element. What do you expect?
1. its density doesnt matter
2. its weight does, and no its not at all the same thing
3. really? the whole point of his comment was that lead IS heavy, he was being sarcastic.
*****
definition of density:
1. the degree of compactness of a substance.
2. the quantity of people or things in a given area or space.
In other words, the density of a metal says how close the atoms are placed, it does NOT say how much each atom weigh, lead atoms are extremely heavy and therefor lead weighs a lot (it is also very dense, but that was beside the point).
Sorry to rant about this, I'm aware that a lot of people use density in the way you do, but its not 100% correct to equate density with weight.
I love how both his brother and Nate in their first videos just awkwardly starred at the camera
His brother maintains the strongest eye contact known to man

@@arthurmead5341 wtf is your problem
@@wtfstudios3236 his vids are trash
@@arthurmead5341 I respect your opinion but people might get offended btw I have no disrespect for u
@@arthurmead5341 haha . Actually no
Not funny , didn't happen.
they "hacked" the battery out of the car. I think I should start calling my mechanic a hacker.
a hacker can also be someone who cuts or hacks into stuff, which he did when he opened the battery in the first vid.
Hacking "the title I hacked this stuff" means he opened it up or broke in with a tool also try a dictionary for once
In a few years, a subset of mechanics will have to be hackers in a sense with how things are progressing. We are putting more and more tasks in the hand of the central computer of the car after all. So, fixing your breaks? That's a mechanical thing currently. In five years? It might be a software problem.
+Volvary hacking just means using stuff for something it was not made for. mostly it's used in the sense of using computers in ways they were nit intended for but if i use my toaster as a door stopper i hacked it. if i use my micowave to build a robot i hacked it and when i use my car battery to get lead and sulfuric acid i hacked it.
I never argued his use of hacking didn't make sense, don't get me wrong. All I said was that in a few years, more tech savvy people will need to access inside the onboard computers of cars to correct stuff than right now.
Needed one more ingot for a lead block
Dannybythebanana geezus...lol
Dannybythebanana that's not how's life work
Blue Yoshi that's not how grammar works....
Dannybythebanana you could make a lead chestplate!
AllCreamedUp that's how minecraft work, right ?
By the way, if you want sulfuric acid, just by a bottle of drain cleaner, some brands contain high concentrations of sulfuric acid
True 👍
well if your a kid dont
I think most drain cleaners use sodium hydroxide tho don't they
@@steventayman4109 it doesn’t make sense to me as hard as the water is. I always thought acid would be the “drain cleaner” to use when the calcium literally builds up and clogs my shower head but what do I know. Throw some lye at it. 🤷🏼♂️
@@loriannschwartz Drain clogs are often caused by oils sticking things together or just filling up the pipe entirely. Lye breaks that oil down. It also dissolves organic matter like hair, cotton and other fibers.
*lifts literal lead
"Wow! that is heavy"
He's just pointing it out
you know it's possible to lift lead without it being heavy right?
Im pretty sure that makes no sense
+MrSimpsondennis yeah but it is relatively heavy, it is one of the heavier elements and is often used to show something's weight. It is just a funny notion
+Deadly Little Gamer hey, did I see you comment on another video
You should turn this into a car battery.
hahajaj
yeah
lol best comment
Brew Dain He could always make a smaller voltage battery as well.
stfu
I thought it was funny how your brother wore the lab coat and you did not.
Yeah gotta protect family ;)
but he didn't wear closed shoes while casting liquid hit metals:-\
LOL Probably correct
+Ashraf Taher hi
This is THE king of random. He needs no lab coat.
Most DIY/hardware stores carry a type of clog-busting drain cleaner that's 97% pure sulfuric acid. It's normally in a separate section from the rest of the typical drain cleaners, and comes in scary packaging slathered in warnings. Usually a pretty good source if you don't need lab-grade H2SO4. ;)
RIP King Of Random 😢
i feel very uncomfortable when his brother looks into the camera ._.
might be his flip flops.
agree
i was thinking the exact same thing, theres a high chance he could become a meme, but i guess it was also the lack of words from him, its hard to be on the spot the first times, maybe he can overcome it to be more natural
cesar medina its the way he smiles
dead
Here is a reminder from The American Medical Association.....
DON'T POUR SULFURIC ACID ON YOUR GENITALS!!!!!
but other areas are okay :)
Joseph Dugan aww i was just about to, my afternoon ruined.
Why
Plz tell us why
Kool Dude genitals dissolve
pyrex measuring cups for cooking aren't necessarily heat resistant nowadays, fair warning
Yeah, the one they've used definitely isn't for sure (you can tell by the color of the glass)....
Shouldn't you be wearing a filtration mask? Thought vapors from molten lead were pretty toxic.
once for a video? should be fine. Donig this regularly (as folks who make bullets out of car battery lead do), then , yeah, eye protection, full face mask, rubber gloves and probably work gloves over that.
at those temperatures there is no lead vapor but the lead particles and dust is what gets you. if you are cooking up some lead most likely the vapor you see is water or smoke for the flux or trash that was mixed in
+Bob No. lm just talking for the experience that I have. I love to cast bullets out of recycled lead. where I have have to melt the alloy in a pan and pour the ingots. now I would not put a touch to the lead like the first part but heat a pan on a turkey fryers burner on a cast iron pan ( better heat management) those lead masks only protected you from lead particulates ... the lead vapor masks cost a lot more.. in the range of industries have to order them because of the cost of maintaining them is to great for the everyday worker. by the way rubbing in some ones face that you are wrong without correcting them shows that you are as ignorant so next time you start accusing someone of being wrong please correct them because that's how people learn not by someone telling you its wrong but by someone telling you the what's right. everyone makes mistakes no one needs some prick to rub it in there face
it's all about ventilation, and with that small amount outside, you're fine. and before the idiots arguing about making bullets start in, I work with lead solder 40 hours a week and use no mask, as we have proper ventilation.
ventilation helps. Bullet making usually happens in a reloading room or some room that doubles for it, which is why bullet-making folks go on about masks.
cody's lab.. collabe.. would be awesome for this type of video..love it.!
IDK if you saw or not but they did collab a while ago.
yeah I saw that ..he made silver bullet..that's why I m saying..Cody is really good with this kind of stuff..!
I think Cody would watch this and weep tears of 20lb pure lead bricks. I'm pretty sure he had a better method for this but I don't remember the video.
***** Already happened actually.
In my feed, Cody has a comment right above you 😊
Grant: That's heavy. Wow, that's heavy!
Me: well yeah its lead
The lab worker inside me is screaming at all the danger during this experiment. To anyone reading this, for the love of god don't just go home and do this all willy nilly.
"pure" sulfuric acid
I will go to work instead, then do it all willy nilly.
I know right... Watching the sulfuric acid fume makes me want to tear my hair out. I can almost imagine when someone wants to dilute that acid by adding some water to it... Guys, never add water to acid, only acid to water!
too late, already have 3rd degree burns and lung damage. Great video!
Doesn't help that he's using the modern pyrex. So it's not borosilicate.
That green glint scared me. It's just soda glass!
If it says 'not for broiler' or whatever on the bottom, don't use it!
5:30 i saw u drop it ;)
yeahh
drop what?
+DevilDog Justin one of that metal things
One of the lead ingots.
+Steel Titan thx for correcting me :)
So apparently now taking something apart counts as hacking.
I don't know exactly what it means but hacking doesnt just mean hacking some poor kids minecraft account.
+Elrarion2 thought the original meaning wad an expert in something
Yeah- I think clock-boy started that trend. He called taking something apart "building" it though
Elrarion2 Generally it means to modify something so that it does something that it was not originally intended to do. Just taking something apart is not a hack. Modifying the battery to do something else would be a hack. Building something from scratch is also not a hack.
Hacking at something I think
I love the videos where people melt down metals and use casts to make ingots out of them, it's just so satisfying!
Grant,can you make metal Legos? This came to me because of the Lego molds and metal melting,like if you agree
I love that idea, he would have to make new molds out of another material though
he would have to make molds of his legos to then make lego molds from those tougher legos....
still, I would like to see these metal Legos. if the plastic ones hurt when you step on them... God help ye who steps on a lead Lego.
6rednek only if they com out perfect. otherwise ud be stepping on a chunk of metal instead of a lego
GameFreakSteve great idea but I don't think you can make metal things in silicone
Now the question is what can you do with pure sulfuric acid and lead ingots? Can't wait to see. Love your channel! Thank you for all the knowledge you share.
If this is knowledge then you are stupid ^^
+Ron Johnson Rage like that is a sign of stupidity my friend
you can make meth with sulfuric acid
+Ron Johnson triggered
Calm down he's just a troll
you can make ether or chloroform with the acid or bullets and birth defects with the lead.
I'm stoked for the plethora of different ways that you will use sulfuric acid.
You REALLY need to further explain what to do with that highly toxic waste after you show a video like this.
Bury it in the backyard
That's too much work. Just dump it in a park, or a water fountain.
The park is kinda far away. I just threw it in a baby's face.
Drink it, it tastes really good
+GunsAndBricks maybe it might be the new Clorox plz let me drink it see what the taste is
Does "hack" bother anyone else? What does it mean to hack a battery out of a car? It is best to use the most precise word with a singular meaning. You removed it, you opened it, and you separated the components.
to hack something, like cut, to hack at a tree, so yeah, cut
"Hack" comes from the tool "Hacksaw" so "hacking" something open is fine to say.
Hack as in finding new uses for the car battery that are not intended, not hack as in cut the batter out of the car.
Yep
wow. y u b so technical??
I'm glad to see your brother using proper PPE this time. The last video was a nightmare in terms in hazards hahahahah
Last time I was this early, these comments were funny
Those comments have never been funny.

+Ian The Pineapple I know what it's called I'm just saying its doesn't work and even the thumbnail looks like an advertisement
to make it more interesting tbh, kind of like headline news at the newspaper
WOW you got some lead. Such a precious metal, very expensive, so rare.
sayo acid is expensive though. They're just showing salvagement from a dead battery
Once, I was filling a battery with acid, so I took a nap and woke up with a big hole on my T-Shirt! Lesson learned...

is it just me or is this super satisfying
do you guys wear make up for these?? Or does your bro just have super thick eye lashes??

did anyone else see one of the mini muffins fall?
Ye lol
Tip for future references. If you have access to acetylene cutting torch turn on the acetylene not the oxygen and cover tray or mold with the soot then pour lead in. Preferably warm the mold before pouring it. Lead will just drop out easily when cooled down. Works great for fishing weights and bullets.
Someone explain the science behind lead poisoning and why it did or didn't come into effect in this video....
Lead poisoning is when you get too much lead in your body, and it usually takes several months to take effect. They have solid chunks of lead, so it didn't get into their bodies, plus even if it did it would take to long to show effect in the video.
you can touch solid lead and not get lead poisoning, but lead that gets into your system can start to accumulate. as long as they washed their hands before eating or smoking, they will be fine as far as lead is concerned.
Usually people say eating or touching there mouth and stuff...but you said smoking?
+Kyle Kern yes because you tend to think "I'm about to eat, I should wash my hands" but not "I'm about to touch a cigarette then put it in my mouth, I should wash my hands." company I worked for had a big problem with their smokers getting lead poisoning over time. not really the non-smokers though
If you work with lead 5 days per week, 4 weeks per month, you will probably get lead poisoning, otherwise you're ok
5:33 *Drops ingot*
It's so satisfying when he scrapes the impurities off the top
when your Brother started talking I got confused. you Two Sound waaaay too much alike
Agree
+Cerny ur beautiful :3
He's too cool to be a dad
shoenice would drink that shiny liquid
Well basically
***** haha
And that cloudy liquid in the beginning.
you didn't hack anything, you salvaged.
I was able to melt some wheel weights and pour it around my cast iron sewer pipe to make a repair/change a fitting. Does any one remember "Oakum".
That metal pouring was science porn
Bad, bad, bad idea... lots of nasty stuff got released in making that vid.
lots of nasty stuff got released in making that drama.
+Andrew Daniels salt may be nasty when coming from a hater but it's not toxic
+Andrew Daniels agree
He knows what he's doing
As long as you know what you're doing it's all good. Not sure how he was able to hold it that close to his face without coughing a ton, but so long as you aren't exposed to too much you're just fine.
Little Johnny drink but now he'll drink no more because what he thought was H2O was H2S04
The correct poem is as follows:
"Little Johnny took a sip
For he will drink no more
For what he thought was H₂0
Was H₂SO₄" -Unknown Author
glad you do all this outside... but man oh man is that dangerous. i hope no one tries this in a garage.
The real question is if he used PAM or BUTTER in the muffin tray.
That's not Pyrex, that's slightly less cheap soda lime glass.
REAL Pyrex come from Europe.
prove it.
The best pyrex you get comes from the uk, that's where I live
nowiknow.com/the-war-against-pyrex/
A scientist made an astonishing discovery of a substance that would dissolve anything it contacted, and realized he had nothing in which he could contain it. Gee, if he only knew about "battery acid/leadproof Pyrex".
Not available at stores.
Order now, and you'll receive a free, acid-resistant Pyrex respirator mask and eye protection kit. Dial 800-try-burn. That's 1-800-get-sick. 1-800-fla-meup. Offer not valid with any other toxic promotion.
Call now, agents are standing by.
***** PYREX was coined as a brand name for Sodium borosilicate. A specially formulated glass that can handle head without shattering and is generally a great cooking material.
Now in America due to market economic whatever stuff, pyrex is made by a different company in the US only. This company instead uses Soda Lime glass (Windows glass) that is tempered to not instantly explode when heat is applied. However this cheaper soda lime stuff is a lot easier to break from heat shock, and also looks bluer than regular PYREX.
TL;DR, PYREX and pyrex are two different things. If you want REAL PYREX, it needs to be imported from europe where they use the stronger, nicer Sodium Borosciliate.

same :o
wtf why does it say this was just posted but your comment is 15 hours ago
If that was me all that lead will be all over the ground.
4:44
It's the mesh stuff that is in the lead sheet that turns into lead when melted, I know because I used to do that as a kid to make lead pellets for sling shots plus I've seen it done plenty of times when making cast nets for fishing
Imagine using your brother for something that was literally molten metal not longer than 20 minutes ago Like
Like a discount cody's lab
This dude is who we all wanna be together with when apocalypse strikes :D
My guess as to what the yellowish impurities on top of the ingots are is sulfur...
It could be anything, really. The paste used to fill those (lead) grids is a mixture of all kinds of metals and molecules aimed at improving the battery's (charge and discharge) properties. They should've just melted the grids separately and the paste separately, 'cause the latter was mostly slag anyway.
0:36 Actually, it's not technically a mixture of water and sulfuric acid (assuming an even mixture); it's just sulfuric acid. If you dry out sulfuric acid, the resulting anhydrous compound is simply dihydrogen sulfate, which by itself is neither corrosive nor an acid. So, the acid only exists when this compound is mixed with water, when the two hydrogen protons dissociate from the H2SO4 molecules to form H3O+ ions with some of the water molecules. It is under these conditions that the compound "becomes" an acid; the acid consists of BOTH the H2SO4 in solution AND the water itself.
isnt lead a poisonous metal?
Yup.
If it gets into your bloodstream.
It will get when you breathe the fumes or you don't wash your hands really hard after you touch it. You can write with lead on paper, that's how easy it is to remove its atoms from the bulk.
Lajos Winkler lead isnt in pencils anymore, the creator found it was poisonous and changed it to graphite
+Kennythekidrs graphite and small traces of lead not enough to be poisonous
Car battery "hack" I don't see a laptop anywhere.
+Jacob Berghofer because its "hack" get it
You. I like you.
+Neroxen You do realize that computer programmers were not nearly the first people to use "hacking" as a term for breaking and repurposing something, right? You might as well have written,

Hahaha
Hi grant i really enjoy your videos so i decided i was going to also dismantle my old car battery and i made myself a lead gun and did you know you can concentrate the acid more as it is in the proportions 1:28 so i ended up with a slightly thick liquid could you maybe show us some uses for lead?😀
Alright man, see you on the other side due to your lead poisining!
you don't get lead poisoning from touching it. it has to get into your body.
Good thing they have been boiling leadded suphuric acid, melting lead and messing around with lead sulphate then!
Yep u get lead poisoning from warm water leaching into your skin but I won’t be a lot
Couldn't you have fractionally distilled the sulphoric acid and water solution??
Check out my page, thanks!
practically speaking, no.
I love how you're using glassware with sulfuric acid.
lol he dropped one at 5:33
I'm going to the store anyone want anything?
Some WATERMELON
i want pringles
Buy a pack of 100 Double A batteries and ship them to me, you pay shipping.
+ㅤㅤ dude pliss chill
+ㅤㅤ y u mad
Great fishing weights you made.
how much could you sell those ingots for?
Since its lead not much. Maybe 10$
PoliteParrot164 - Xbox360 Not very much. Lead isn't very expensive.
i wanna be the very best
maybe $1,000 because lead is expensive but not a lot so i say $1,000
Not a lot I’d have to do research
$1.75/kg
Music is too loud
could not agree more. dance music is also an odd choice.

Your brother looks very caring❤
good thing they wear their gas mask, otherwise.. oh wait..
does not happen anything if you dont heat lead over 450 celsius there are no danger, educate yourself
i think he meant about the sulfuric acid because of the fumes
+runnerJong Perhaps that's the reason why they're doing the whole thing OUTSIDE....

Please don't loop such short music segments. Same two bars over and over and over and over.... argh!
Lol
Its fine to me
Continue to explore and experiment with a smile on the face, The king of Random.
Am I the only one who thinks this is a really RELLY bad idea?
Why so?
Well, led is super poisonous, you know, heavy metal and all, the touching, the vapors from melting it etc. and as I understand it, chloridric acid is quite volatile and gives off super toxic fumes, I wouldn't handle either of them lightly, and would have grave reservations about suggesting untrained randos to do so.
+sulfuric
Not when its in ingot form. Lead is harmful to the body when it gets into the body. Your body cannot break down lead so it accumulates inside until you have too much inside and you die to it. Touching lead is completely ok, the problem occurs when you inhale lead paint fumes or use lead based cosmetics. The danger here is very low.
no
i showed this to my dad and he did it and it didn't work
it is true
He should've done some research. It's like thinking that you watched a war film and you can already be general... doesn't work that way
So satisfying when he was scraping the dirty metal
You know that both can be bought easily and cheaply?
Sparkaly dave still, I am 17 years old and I buy all sorts of chemicals, from acids to alcohols like methanol or ethanol to all kinds of salts, and I setup my lab at the age of 16. And that in a country with quite restrictive regulations (in Europe you can't get a lot of stuff like DCM or nitric acid). Sulfuric acid is sold as a drain cleaner and I don't think there's a minimum age on it.

Well, it looks like you know what you are talking about. You left the guy silent.
Kaya what do you mean?
10 years less of life.
If you are just looking for lead I usually go to a tire center, for a case of beer they will give me a 5 gallon bucket of used tire weights. They are usually pure lead except for the metal clip which doesn't melt so it is easy to remove. It's also cool to watch the steel clips float on top of the liquid lead.
this is how the meth labs get their materials for production?
I like how they change shots right as Grant's brother drops one of the muffins at 5:34.
