Word of warning that Japanese strap there appears to actually be a negative ion bracelet. The powder in these items is typically Thorium Oxide which is mildly radioactive. Most of the decay will be alpha and beta radiation so relatively harmless from outside the body. Continued wear is still not recommended however especially when the dust particles are visible like that, they will easily be dislodged through wear or any form of damage and then there is a risk of inhaling them. You do not want to ingest this stuff as if it gets stuck in your body somewhere, which is almost guaranteed if it enters the lungs, it will result in chronic radiation damage to the surrounding tissue.
@@BDtetra I think a radioactive bracelet would be a bit of an antistatic though right? The radiation leaving is charged, so as long as you are charged the same way statically your total charge should decrease. Just I doubt measurably
The sound of childish joy he let out when Linus said "now I want to feel that". I'm dead. I've been watching both of these guys off and on for years and it's so great to see them together.
@Joe Nicholls there is Wan show where Linus actually revealed that he was surprised that Mehdi is fellow Canadian and they immediately filmed 1st collab
This is my favorite collab. It’s hilarious watching electro boom fight the urge to mess with Linus even more. Watch his face. He’s full of big brother bully energy
It's really great to see Electroboom in this context. His videos are great but even in this more improvised format (which is saying something given his normal content) he's such a natural entertainer and quick wit. A mind that works like lightning, you may say
I used to work in an injection molding factory and sometimes we would transfer the reworked pellets from a large hopper to a large metal bin. The process tobs of those little pellets moving through the metal built up a DANGEROUS static electric charge. Everyone makes the mistake once of casually touching the bin without being grounded. It's super painful. You see a flash, your ears ring and pop, you even taste it momentarily. Static electricity can be pretty gnarly if it's able to build a huge charge. It's just that normal everyday activity never yields such potential.
This is actually their second joint episode. The first collaboration from Linus point of view: Can static KILL your PC? (ft. Electroboom) ruclips.net/video/nXkgbmr3dRA/видео.html This one is Mehdi's version: What It Takes to Break a RAM with ESD ruclips.net/video/4SjOv_szzVM/видео.html Now prepare yourself for a good laugh.
Gotta love when the person holding the camera took a few steps back from the set as Linus was about to turn on the "magic wand" stick and he got told to not point it toward electronics. We often forget the camera and person holding the camera while watching this kind of content... and their values.
Idk if you've seen ElectroBOOM's video on making the wand, but there's literally so much voltage coming off of the wand that it disrupts electronics it's pointed at
I thought to myself there's no way this is not going to be boring. 29 min later I'm still watching you guys shock each other. Clearly, the 8-year-old boy never completely leaves.
Mehdi legit created a super powerful device that he loves to show off. The fact it ionizes the air so quickly when just powered on is bonkers. The magic wand breaths such power
Years ago (2000 or so) the production manager at a company I worked at decided to purchase the wireless ESD straps. The straps were supposed to be used in conjunction with a sort of humidifier. I, being in engineering, researched the device and found several articles about how they were a scam. I became unpopular with production since they had to add grounding to all of the benches use in production.
Its always amazing that the person who brings up inconvenient facts becomes the pariah instead of the problem being the problem. I changed careers twice due to being that inconvenient fact person.
Exactly right. I have worked with electronics for dozens of years, at no point did walking on a carpet in socks ever result in a damaged component. It's all nonsense.
That "glitter" has a nonzero chance of being radioactive. You may want to bring that wristband near a Geiger counter and see what happens. You can find several videos on that scam.
exactly my thoughts....in that case it could actually work....if you would be charged positively this kind of "negative ions" beta decay bracelet could lower your charge
When I was a kid I've learned a hard way what an ESD does against electronics when I killed my first gaming console with it. I lived at the polar circuit, so having -40 degrees outside in winter was a norm and the air indoors during such times was so dry that you always had a charge on you. After that a standard ritual before touching any electronics or anything metallic was to come to a heating radiator and touch it with my warm socks. This way you don't feel pain, just see and hear a zapping lightning discharge. And then it was ok switching on the TV and console to play some Contra.
You should check to see if that "glitter" is radioactive. It might be a thorium bracelet, which could, in theory, mean it's capable of discharging static by ionizing the air.
Yeah, and report that seller while you're at it. make sure to contact both Amazon and your local nuclear safety regulator. those products are fake and dangerous.
Working in PTH, Not only did we have anti static ankle straps and anti static lab coats, We also had to drink enough water to insulate ourselves and pass the insulation test just to get through the door into the warehouse. The floor was also painted with anti static paint
can you do one thing for me, go near a wall , form a star with 5 people who have hair, rub each others head, 1: you'll feel good like a dog. 2: if your hair rise, game over measures
@@samim.Ali. put through hole pcb assembly. You know……. The stuff on a pcb board that has to be put through a hole and soldered, Eg capacitors, resistors, diodes, certain IC chips , transmission crystals, chokes , I/O sockets, pots mod controllers ect……… common basic knowledge in electronics would teach you what PTH assembly is. Say you buy a raspberry pi Pico and want to mount it to a breadboard, you’d have to solder pins to it. To do this you would put the “pins through the hole” and solder it to the copper pad etched out on the pcb. In large numbers you’d run it over a wave solder machine. Pcb’s that mix surface mount electronics and PTH electronics have to have a team soldering in the PTH parts by hand
IBM had a huge plant down in my area from the 70s to the 90s. I knew allot of people that worked there. Esd wristbands were common but in the labs they would wear an esd device attached to their ankle and shoe. They also worked on esd mats I conjunction w the ankle/shoe setup. This left their hands free for doing delicate work.
Mehdi is actually hilarious- especially given that he is an Electrical Engineer (I say this as someone in engineering). Some might say he is a little bit too funny and chilled. Almost shockingly so.
Those "wireless" straps look shockingly similar to the very radioactive "health" bands that another RUclipsr checked with Geiger counters because they claimed they had thorium or something else in them.
@@rylandavis2976depending on the item some of them were pretty spicy for a product intended to be worn daily. radiation should be thought more of in lifetime dose, as immediate damage from radiation means you'd pretty much be dead already. I wouldnt call it very radioactive either, but ideally no health product should be especially higher than background
Mehdi is one of my favorite people of all time. I started watching his goofy videos to watch him shock himself of course, but over time I grew to realize he's actually a genius when it comes to electrical engineering. He shocks himself to teach others about how electricity works and spark their interest in the field (pun intended.) Amazing guy, thanks for the interest in electrical engineering you've given me and for all the laughs along the way Mr. Sadaghdar. And thanks for shocking Linus.
Some of my favorite colaborations ever with Linus and ElectroBOOM. It's like watching two kids play and jack around with each other after school on their dads old PC or electronics in the garage. I love this content and the fact Linus is so damn scared of getting shocked every time lol.
Mehdi and Linus, two of the most entertaining and educational Dads on RUclips. This is the kind of dad collab we need on a random and unexpected basis and I love it!
it's illegal in Florida though because of all the sparks flying between them... that feeling of electricity between them... omygod just think ot the children...
Probably 2 of the most inspirational people I've seen (but don't personally know) to motivate me to go into stem in one video. Love to see it. Hope we can see more collabs between these 2.
In middle school the teacher was using one to demonstrate and had a girl hold it. Everyone started poking and shocking her as she cried. All the needed to do was let go and it would have stopped. I don't think they were allowed to do that demo after that.
I remember in one of my classes someone was touching one, and after a while vaguely pointed in the direction of some metal, and then there was a large enough electrical discharge that all the students were able to see the arc.
as someone who used to work at a fleece factory, with miles upon miles of PES fleece going over aluminium rollers, i too get a chickle out of people being babies about stuff like that. like i have taken discharges so strong i could see a second spark crawling over my shoes to ground.
Nice job Linus, there is possibly thoria dust (thorium oxide, radioactive alpha emitter, you can touch it but don't breathe it) all over the shop now. Those silicone "health bracelets" with mysterious powder in them... often actually have THAT in them in addition to the potential glitter. This was supposedly Japanese and not Chinese so it's slightly less likely, but you might want to break out the Geiger counter just in case.
I highly doubt there's thorium dioxide in these bracelets as that is added two bracelets for health products cams and the people who would be doing those kinds of scams would probably go nowhere near the electronics industry because they know nothing about it. Also thorium dioxide isn't exactly cheap, so it's only added if they think it will have any chance of increasing the sale rate of a product.
@@the_undead The Thought Emporium YT channel covered these sort of bracelets a few years ago and many of them really *did* contain Thorium-based radioactive components. He actually reached out to the Canadian and USA Nuclear regulatory agencies to get the specific products he tested taken off the market.
The Japanese info card at 24:42 says 'Emits negative ions from the entire band. Works well on stiff necks.' with a diagram of it supposedly heating up someone's neck. So it was meant to emit something at least. The Japanese text was written with Chinese glyphs (负 instead of 負), and has typos suggesting a Japanese speaker never looked at it (チタソ＆グルマ, ィォン), so may well have come from China anyway.
The last video with electroboom was one of the most cool colabs you’ve ever done, so let me tell you I almost exploded in excitement when I saw a NEW electro boom and Linus colab. Love you guys both, two of my favorite channels ever!
This feels like a 90's Science show and I love it as I am a regular to both of your Channels, Please make this a default and keep it going both of you very knowledgeable. Love it.
Ah, was once involved in ESD protection of chips. We had rumours on the work floor. One was that there was a paper out there that showed that even if you did not connect the wriststrap to earth, it was still working. People just moved a lot less. Another one was that a small amount of alcohol in the blood reduces the energy in the zaps and therefore the damage they did. Maybe try that one next time? Cheers!
Related to your alcohol rumor, I love how every time methanol has been relevant at my work SOMEONE has to say "oh man I hope we don't have to get drunk tonight" because getting drunk is genuinely what you do to treat methanol poisoning.
The collab I always wanted but never expected. I've watched Electro Boom since I was in college (which was 10 years ago), so it's awesome to see you guys doing a vid together, I had no idea you guys had already done a video.
Mehdi kept the 'poker face' of the lecture room until he had Linus's confidence then had his usual fun while the two men gave the wire-less bands enough of a test as they deserved. As Mehdi is a professional highly qualified engineer Linus of course felt 'sort of safe' but still has a lot of the undergraduate about him. This is education at its best and Linus probably knew how Mehdi concocted the pantie fabric VdG generator. That is worth looking up on ElectroBoom!
OMG I’ve never had so much joy watching you two collaborate. I’m sorry if it’s schadenfreude but I swear through the entire duration of the video I was smiling from ear to ear.
you might want to make sure that rubber wristband isn't radioactive -- there are a lot of products with similar looks out there that contain radioactive powders, etc
Especially if they have "small metallic glitter or crystals" in them and made in China. Mind the radiation is safe enough to wear for the brief time you tested, but it is potentially dangerous if worn constantly for long periods (as most of such crap bands are intended to be).
Pro tip, your knee/ elbow has a lot less nerve endings than your fingers so if you make a habit of discharging static electricity by tapping your arm or your knee on a metal door knob before touching it with your hand, you'll save yourself a lot of pain
@@Raivo_K that's because you're hitting an internal nerve with blunt force vs. having electrical discharge into an area with a very high density sensory nerves
@@Raivo_K You're welcome! One of my co-workers last year was always shocking themselves on the door and I was like dude dude dude.. use your knee or something. Tap it on the doorknob before you open the door and it won't hurt so much.. I feel like I changed their life for the better because they started doing that immediately hahaha
I have never heard the crew in the background laugh as hard as in this video. They really do enjoy watching Linus get zapped lol. Amazing collaboration. Thanks got being such a great sport Linus. You’re the best bro. And thanks Electroboom too!
now Linus, this is the best video yet and you pick the right guy for a callaboration, and I as an ex-electrician, ex-car stereo installer as a hobby, and been taking apart breaking and fixing electronic devices as a hobby, i find this video way too late of its birth. But you did it and that is all that matters. As i explain this process, i try to provide proof which i can. I have the person slide their feet in socks across the carpret while i rub their back, wearing a sweater, with a ballon. then turn out the lights, have them take their house key and hold it between their thumb and finger as you would normally hold a key. And hold it tight and touch the key to the door knob to see the arch of the discharge. But some reason my delivery still does not com across, so this video is much better that i would ever i could produce.
18:30 Mehdi's bracelet looked similar to those amazon sold mood bracelets, and those are often found to be spiked with radioactive isotopes. I would recommend against wearing those for any extended period of time. Source: The thought emporium and the video titled "Negative Ion/Anti-5g Products Are Actually RADIOACTIVE"
I am an engineering specialist . And love elektroboom and Linus . And love the fact that you get young people get excited choosing maybe a tech education later . Believe me, it is so much fun. You can fix your own defect stuff, or throw it away when you blow it up 😂
@Era would it be possible to generalize every aspect of engineering and get the general fix-to-brolen/explosion ratio? Since deltalex is a specialist, he might be more combustible stuff. Thanks btw for giving the ratio for capacitor related cases! Basically you have a 10% chance of success and 90% of fireworks. Nice!
@@nhojlagap6222 Lol, the percentage is a joke though. But a good brand caps will have the top burst open instead of whole aluminum casing fly off like a bullet if you overload the caps.
It may actually be _causing_ cancer. The bracelet was advertised as "negative ion" and had suspicious powder in it, which makes it very likely that it was radioactive - check _the thought emporium_ videos about these radioactive scam products.
Colab with Electroboom is always great, loved watching this. One note on the glitter strap. That's NOT a wireless ESD strap, those are marketed as "tension relievers" for muscles, which is in itself another topic for snake oil. We used to see a lot of Japanese and a few MLB baseball players wearing similar products a while back.
Kinda like that fad where everyone wore bracelets with magnets in it. Tons of people sold them claiming they cured, prevented, or somehow helped all sorts of things. It would take hours to compile a list of everything various people claimed those stupid bracelets (or headbands) did and the list would be a mile long. Those things were everywhere for a while and stupid people bought a ton of them.
If you still have the japanese bracelet it might be worth checking it with a Geiger counter as some of those bracelets use radioactive particles in them.
This needs to be tested, I've seen videos that has silicon bracelets and pendants that were "negative ion health products" that were actually radioactive.
If you look at those bracelets that you was talking about you'll note that they have white particles in them and then this bracelet does not have those white particles. So I'm willing to bet money that it's perfectly fine
Well, we already knew the wireless ESD-bracelets don't work from one of @ElectroBOOM's old videos. However, seeing Linus and Mehdi shock each other *is* really fun. Great to see a second collaboration between these two and hope to see more.
Anyone with basic understanding of how electricity works shouldn't need a video to prove it haha. But I agree, watching them fool around was very satisfying.
You might want to get that "Japanese" bracelet tested with a geiger counter. Some scammers like to put thorium in silicone bracelets like that, and that might be what the white powder is.
@@THE-X-Force There is a whole set of production of "negative ion" "health" products that supposedly have healing properties. They get taken down from time to time, but occasionally pop up under other fake claims as they try to get rid of excess inventory when they are shut down for selling them as a health product. The Thought Emporium has done several videos on the topic, including this one: ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html
@thethoughtemporium made two videos reviewing these bracelets and explaining how they’re radioactive. m.ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html ruclips.net/video/3BA5bw1EV5I/видео.html At 2:30 in the 2nd video, he showed a bracelet with a similar cross section to the one Mehdi wore.
Had to wear those constantly at my last job. Even with those, ESD table tops, and other precautions we were shocking our scopes and throwing them out of calibration all the time, so we had to upgrade to using ESD lotion to increase conductivity on our skin, using two straps (usually one on the wrist, one on the ankle), and connecting those straps to a simple monitoring device at each lab station that would emit a high pitched wail any time it detected a loss of conductivity. The conductivity of the strap itself wasn't nearly good enough compared to the metal plate on the buckle.
Having gone through (UK) anti-static training for a military component supply company, I can confer that it is SO important for affective protection. Great video and very informative.
@@NoName-zn1sb Since Affect, and Effect, are both words... I was trying to get the gears in my brain to decide if the right one was used in this sentence lol

This is actually their second joint episode.
The first collaboration from Linus point of view: Can static KILL your PC? (ft. Electroboom) ruclips.net/video/nXkgbmr3dRA/видео.html
This one is Mehdi's version: What It Takes to Break a RAM with ESD ruclips.net/video/4SjOv_szzVM/видео.html
Now prepare yourself for a good laugh.
Gotta love when the person holding the camera took a few steps back from the set as Linus was about to turn on the "magic wand" stick and he got told to not point it toward electronics. We often forget the camera and person holding the camera while watching this kind of content... and their values.
11:33 nice catch
Idk if you've seen ElectroBOOM's video on making the wand, but there's literally so much voltage coming off of the wand that it disrupts electronics it's pointed at
My first thought when he mentioned expensive electronics / devices was "Hm, wonder what kind of camera is filming this"
I thought to myself there's no way this is not going to be boring. 29 min later I'm still watching you guys shock each other. Clearly, the 8-year-old boy never completely leaves.
some things are just permanently awesome
ElectroBOOM is just permanently awesome.
Not only that, but it was educational shocking haha.
Entertaining and informative.
Electroboom is so funny and informative you just can't lose interest.
Yup... NEVER! 😄
Mehdi legit created a super powerful device that he loves to show off. The fact it ionizes the air so quickly when just powered on is bonkers. The magic wand breaths such power
plasma channel is making a a jet engine that just like the wand it creates wind
If it falls into the wrong hands, we are doomed….😅
A misunderstood genius
Sold on amazing?
Props for Medhi for not telling Linus he could just put his hand on it before he turns the juice on and not get shocked.
😂
Knowing Medhi. He would go for the biggest pain possible without killing Linus. For 'learning' purposes. 😂
My thoughts exactly. Mehdi really is a masochist. Iranians.
so them both can having fun together
@@n00n1n It's the almighty monobrow
Years ago (2000 or so) the production manager at a company I worked at decided to purchase the wireless ESD straps. The straps were supposed to be used in conjunction with a sort of humidifier. I, being in engineering, researched the device and found several articles about how they were a scam. I became unpopular with production since they had to add grounding to all of the benches use in production.
Damn, they had wireless ESD straps 2000 years ago? :O
Its always amazing that the person who brings up inconvenient facts becomes the pariah instead of the problem being the problem. I changed careers twice due to being that inconvenient fact person.
Exactly right. I have worked with electronics for dozens of years, at no point did walking on a carpet in socks ever result in a damaged component. It's all nonsense.
That "glitter" has a nonzero chance of being radioactive. You may want to bring that wristband near a Geiger counter and see what happens. You can find several videos on that scam.
exactly my thoughts....in that case it could actually work....if you would be charged positively this kind of "negative ions" beta decay bracelet could lower your charge
ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html
^this video is a thought emporium video on thorium in net-ion and anti-5g bracelet BS
@@great__success and lower your chance of survival💀💀💀
Yup, I bought a wristband with the same germanium titanium thing and its a good test source for my Geiger couter
@@640kareenough6 lol
I love Mehdi. He is both educational and entertaining at the same time. I'm glad you did another collab with him.
He's a great gateway drug. Science and engineering can be a bit dry sometimes, but he's doing a great job at making it fun even for casual viewers!
These two together is always such fun. Linus being 100% terrified of Mehdi's mad scientist powers.
Totally a Mad scientist.
Educational *and* entertaining :D
Make a whole series of this. Educate and create awareness for everyone on them. Linus is a perfect volunteer for this experiment.
I love it when Linus and ElectroBOOM work together! This is world class!
literally two of the pioneers that helped me pass my units, I owe so much to these two guys it's crazy
FACTS !! I agree man.. funny stuff man
Watching Linus getting electrified by The Happy Stick put a smile on my face .... hilarious... "We learn by pain" 😂😂😂
I don't know why but this is so true, which is probably why I'm definitely heading for the bad place when I shuffle off this mortal coil.
Mehdi and Linus always have fun together. Glad to see it's more than a one-time thing!
It needs to be a thing.
@@greywhite2903It needs to be a regular thing. I’d pay to see these two do these “experiments” regularly lol.
@@greywhite2903 Oh heck yeah! I'd love that.
When I was a kid I've learned a hard way what an ESD does against electronics when I killed my first gaming console with it. I lived at the polar circuit, so having -40 degrees outside in winter was a norm and the air indoors during such times was so dry that you always had a charge on you. After that a standard ritual before touching any electronics or anything metallic was to come to a heating radiator and touch it with my warm socks. This way you don't feel pain, just see and hear a zapping lightning discharge. And then it was ok switching on the TV and console to play some Contra.
You should check to see if that "glitter" is radioactive. It might be a thorium bracelet, which could, in theory, mean it's capable of discharging static by ionizing the air.
It can also give you cancer
I was thinking the same thing. Looked like one of those awful products.
Yeah, and report that seller while you're at it. make sure to contact both Amazon and your local nuclear safety regulator. those products are fake and dangerous.
This needs to be in a message directly to linus/electroboom etc. It was my first thought as well. Might have to sweep their lab with a Geiger counter.
@@themagitechie9955 I have both tritium and thorium in my house.
"We learn by pain" - 😂. This collab was GENIUS!
Congrats! I enjoyed it sooo much!🎉
Working in PTH, Not only did we have anti static ankle straps and anti static lab coats, We also had to drink enough water to insulate ourselves and pass the insulation test just to get through the door into the warehouse. The floor was also painted with anti static paint
Oh wow those are indeed sone security measures😂
can you do one thing for me, go near a wall , form a star with 5 people who have hair, rub each others head, 1: you'll feel good like a dog. 2: if your hair rise, game over measures
Whats PTH?
@@samim.Ali. put through hole pcb assembly. You know……. The stuff on a pcb board that has to be put through a hole and soldered, Eg capacitors, resistors, diodes, certain IC chips , transmission crystals, chokes , I/O sockets, pots mod controllers ect……… common basic knowledge in electronics would teach you what PTH assembly is. Say you buy a raspberry pi Pico and want to mount it to a breadboard, you’d have to solder pins to it. To do this you would put the “pins through the hole” and solder it to the copper pad etched out on the pcb. In large numbers you’d run it over a wave solder machine. Pcb’s that mix surface mount electronics and PTH electronics have to have a team soldering in the PTH parts by hand
@@mpf_agundipsht3619 and your place makes what kind of pcb or trying to make
IBM had a huge plant down in my area from the 70s to the 90s. I knew allot of people that worked there. Esd wristbands were common but in the labs they would wear an esd device attached to their ankle and shoe. They also worked on esd mats I conjunction w the ankle/shoe setup. This left their hands free for doing delicate work.
Mehdi is actually hilarious- especially given that he is an Electrical Engineer (I say this as someone in engineering). Some might say he is a little bit too funny and chilled. Almost shockingly so.
He's Electroboomer 😅
heh shocking 😀
take your like and go
I feel like if you put him in the same room as someone like Alex or Tynan, the room would no longer exist.
We’re all in shock. Shocking i dare say
Those "wireless" straps look shockingly similar to the very radioactive "health" bands that another RUclipsr checked with Geiger counters because they claimed they had thorium or something else in them.
Yeah, I spotted "negative ion" in the description, that and the fine "glitter" which is likely thorium confirms it. Watch out Linus!
The germanium titanium one is basically just one of those snake oil negative ion bands, yeah.
Soooo, did they actually contain radioactive material in that test?
They are not "very radioactive" that RUclipsr really likes to over-exaggerate just how radioactive things are
@@rylandavis2976depending on the item some of them were pretty spicy for a product intended to be worn daily. radiation should be thought more of in lifetime dose, as immediate damage from radiation means you'd pretty much be dead already. I wouldnt call it very radioactive either, but ideally no health product should be especially higher than background
8:59 has to be my favorite moment in the LinusBOOM universe of all time
This was one of the best videos I've seen in a very, VERY long time. ElectroBOOM is a legend.
Mehdi is one of my favorite people of all time. I started watching his goofy videos to watch him shock himself of course, but over time I grew to realize he's actually a genius when it comes to electrical engineering. He shocks himself to teach others about how electricity works and spark their interest in the field (pun intended.)
Amazing guy, thanks for the interest in electrical engineering you've given me and for all the laughs along the way Mr. Sadaghdar.
And thanks for shocking Linus.
It's Mehdi not Medhi
@@BrockBoB I didn't realize I had made that mistake. Fixed.
@@braydenkenney3313 Oh wow, it was a comment of months ago, thanks for fixing then :)
what a peaceful moment
Some of my favorite colaborations ever with Linus and ElectroBOOM. It's like watching two kids play and jack around with each other after school on their dads old PC or electronics in the garage. I love this content and the fact Linus is so damn scared of getting shocked every time lol.
When a real certified electrical engineer makes a wand of death you too would be scared.
One of the most entertaining guests on this show. Love ElectroBoom.
Much love Mehdi Electroboom! good to see you around and doing your thing! Thanks Linus for having him on the show.
Mehdi and Linus, two of the most entertaining and educational Dads on RUclips. This is the kind of dad collab we need on a random and unexpected basis and I love it!
the GigaDad collab
oye sheeekuu kesaa haiiii???
it's illegal in Florida though because of all the sparks flying between them... that feeling of electricity between them... omygod just think ot the children...
@@SebBrosig ayo pause
Kya hua
Probably 2 of the most inspirational people I've seen (but don't personally know) to motivate me to go into stem in one video. Love to see it. Hope we can see more collabs between these 2.
Yes! Literally watched these guys religiously before, during and even after my education into my career.
as someone who uses van de graaf generators to teach children physics, watching linus hesitate to touch the bulb is hilarious
In middle school the teacher was using one to demonstrate and had a girl hold it. Everyone started poking and shocking her as she cried. All the needed to do was let go and it would have stopped. I don't think they were allowed to do that demo after that.
I remember in one of my classes someone was touching one, and after a while vaguely pointed in the direction of some metal, and then there was a large enough electrical discharge that all the students were able to see the arc.
as someone who used to work at a fleece factory, with miles upon miles of PES fleece going over aluminium rollers, i too get a chickle out of people being babies about stuff like that.
like i have taken discharges so strong i could see a second spark crawling over my shoes to ground.
Guys, he's in a video with electroboom. Of course he's scared to touch it 😂
I wonder if Linus knew he didn't have to touch the generator _after_ it was switched on.
I’m am SOOOO happy Medhi had the confidence to fuck with Linus and shock him lol this was an amazing video guys.
This should be a regular monthly collab I think, it's always incredible 😂
Linus be like: "OH PLEASE NO! GOD, NO, F**K NO!!!
Yeah they can't resist it. Pretty shocking actually.
@@gorkskoal9315 Positively electrifying, really!
I'm so proud of you linus. You have graduated from dropping things to shocking yourself.
😂
Nice job Linus, there is possibly thoria dust (thorium oxide, radioactive alpha emitter, you can touch it but don't breathe it) all over the shop now. Those silicone "health bracelets" with mysterious powder in them... often actually have THAT in them in addition to the potential glitter. This was supposedly Japanese and not Chinese so it's slightly less likely, but you might want to break out the Geiger counter just in case.
I highly doubt there's thorium dioxide in these bracelets as that is added two bracelets for health products cams and the people who would be doing those kinds of scams would probably go nowhere near the electronics industry because they know nothing about it. Also thorium dioxide isn't exactly cheap, so it's only added if they think it will have any chance of increasing the sale rate of a product.
@@the_undead my guess, Germanium
@@the_undead The Thought Emporium YT channel covered these sort of bracelets a few years ago and many of them really *did* contain Thorium-based radioactive components. He actually reached out to the Canadian and USA Nuclear regulatory agencies to get the specific products he tested taken off the market.
The Japanese info card at 24:42 says 'Emits negative ions from the entire band. Works well on stiff necks.' with a diagram of it supposedly heating up someone's neck. So it was meant to emit something at least.
The Japanese text was written with Chinese glyphs (负 instead of 負), and has typos suggesting a Japanese speaker never looked at it (チタソ＆グルマ, ィォン), so may well have come from China anyway.
The negative ions block the static 😂😂😂
The last video with electroboom was one of the most cool colabs you’ve ever done, so let me tell you I almost exploded in excitement when I saw a NEW electro boom and Linus colab. Love you guys both, two of my favorite channels ever!
Same here, as soon as I saw the thumbnail I knew it would be a good video
YES! The best collab ever pt. 2! Medhi and Linus have such great synergy when it comes to educational entertainment
his name's mehdi
This feels like a 90's Science show and I love it as I am a regular to both of your Channels, Please make this a default and keep it going both of you very knowledgeable. Love it.
Ah, was once involved in ESD protection of chips. We had rumours on the work floor. One was that there was a paper out there that showed that even if you did not connect the wriststrap to earth, it was still working. People just moved a lot less. Another one was that a small amount of alcohol in the blood reduces the energy in the zaps and therefore the damage they did. Maybe try that one next time? Cheers!
Related to your alcohol rumor, I love how every time methanol has been relevant at my work SOMEONE has to say "oh man I hope we don't have to get drunk tonight" because getting drunk is genuinely what you do to treat methanol poisoning.
ElectroBOOM is so impressed by Linus seamless segue - 1:25
The collab I always wanted but never expected. I've watched Electro Boom since I was in college (which was 10 years ago), so it's awesome to see you guys doing a vid together, I had no idea you guys had already done a video.
17:37 - "That's actually the reason this collab got off the ground." ... I see what you did there.
laughed out loud, the chemistry was shockingly good, definitely a real connection. glad this got lifted off the ground
Mehdi kept the 'poker face' of the lecture room until he had Linus's confidence then had his usual fun while the two men gave the wire-less bands enough of a test as they deserved.
As Mehdi is a professional highly qualified engineer Linus of course felt 'sort of safe' but still has a lot of the undergraduate about him.
This is education at its best and Linus probably knew how Mehdi concocted the pantie fabric VdG generator. That is worth looking up on ElectroBoom!
Mehdi is a highly qualified engineer, BUT he is also a masochist, so there's still risk.
You can just tell how much Linus likes electroboom. Great chemistry! 😊
@RogerWilco99 rectum fryers
There's a real charge in the air when they're together.
7:18 You can literally see the fear (and blood) drain from Linus' face in real time.
OMG I’ve never had so much joy watching you two collaborate. I’m sorry if it’s schadenfreude but I swear through the entire duration of the video I was smiling from ear to ear.
you might want to make sure that rubber wristband isn't radioactive -- there are a lot of products with similar looks out there that contain radioactive powders, etc
Especially if they have "small metallic glitter or crystals" in them and made in China. Mind the radiation is safe enough to wear for the brief time you tested, but it is potentially dangerous if worn constantly for long periods (as most of such crap bands are intended to be).
Seriously Linus, don't ignore this
Pro tip, your knee/ elbow has a lot less nerve endings than your fingers so if you make a habit of discharging static electricity by tapping your arm or your knee on a metal door knob before touching it with your hand, you'll save yourself a lot of pain
Sure does not feel like this way when i hit my elbow on something and it hurts like hell.
@@Raivo_K that's because you're hitting an internal nerve with blunt force vs. having electrical discharge into an area with a very high density sensory nerves
Yep, you can even see that Mehdi usually uses the back of his hand which is less sensitive
@@NathanaelNewton I see. Thank you for clarifying.
@@Raivo_K You're welcome! One of my co-workers last year was always shocking themselves on the door and I was like dude dude dude.. use your knee or something. Tap it on the doorknob before you open the door and it won't hurt so much.. I feel like I changed their life for the better because they started doing that immediately hahaha
I have never heard the crew in the background laugh as hard as in this video. They really do enjoy watching Linus get zapped lol. Amazing collaboration. Thanks got being such a great sport Linus. You’re the best bro. And thanks Electroboom too!
I'm loving this kind of Collab, especially with ElectroBoom himself!!
This by far is one of my favorite LTT Episodes. Non stop laughs but also learning at the same time. 1000% great!
Awesome, did not expect a sequal to the previous one !
A squealquel
A sequal
9:39
Can we just appreciate this moment here? Electroboom made the perfect response while not getting the joke.
I think he did
now Linus, this is the best video yet and you pick the right guy for a callaboration, and I as an ex-electrician, ex-car stereo installer as a hobby, and been taking apart breaking and fixing electronic devices as a hobby, i find this video way too late of its birth. But you did it and that is all that matters. As i explain this process, i try to provide proof which i can. I have the person slide their feet in socks across the carpret while i rub their back, wearing a sweater, with a ballon. then turn out the lights, have them take their house key and hold it between their thumb and finger as you would normally hold a key. And hold it tight and touch the key to the door knob to see the arch of the discharge. But some reason my delivery still does not com across, so this video is much better that i would ever i could produce.
Electroboom and linus is a match made in content heaven, never been this entertained and educated at the same time.
18:30 Mehdi's bracelet looked similar to those amazon sold mood bracelets, and those are often found to be spiked with radioactive isotopes. I would recommend against wearing those for any extended period of time. Source: The thought emporium and the video titled "Negative Ion/Anti-5g Products Are Actually RADIOACTIVE"
yeah
I am an engineering specialist . And love elektroboom and Linus . And love the fact that you get young people get excited choosing maybe a tech education later . Believe me, it is so much fun. You can fix your own defect stuff, or throw it away when you blow it up 😂
Curious, what is the fix-to-explosion ratio?
@@nhojlagap6222 Capacitor related case? Could be 1:10 if using cheap brands and wrong voltage.
It could blind you though...
@Era would it be possible to generalize every aspect of engineering and get the general fix-to-brolen/explosion ratio? Since deltalex is a specialist, he might be more combustible stuff.
Thanks btw for giving the ratio for capacitor related cases! Basically you have a 10% chance of success and 90% of fireworks. Nice!
@@nhojlagap6222 Lol, the percentage is a joke though.
But a good brand caps will have the top burst open instead of whole aluminum casing fly off like a bullet if you overload the caps.
1:29 Mehdi's face, priceless. Like your sponsor!
I knew this would be amazing and I wasn't disappointed. One of the best collabs on RUclips when these two get together 😂
it's NEVER a bad day when there's a Electroboom/Linus collab
As a wise man once said: "He not fighting static, he fighting cancer"
Good video as always and happy Easter to everyone!
HAHAHA BITWIT
It may actually be _causing_ cancer. The bracelet was advertised as "negative ion" and had suspicious powder in it, which makes it very likely that it was radioactive - check _the thought emporium_ videos about these radioactive scam products.
Colab with Electroboom is always great, loved watching this.
One note on the glitter strap. That's NOT a wireless ESD strap, those are marketed as "tension relievers" for muscles, which is in itself another topic for snake oil. We used to see a lot of Japanese and a few MLB baseball players wearing similar products a while back.
And to add a lot of them are radioactive.
Kinda like that fad where everyone wore bracelets with magnets in it. Tons of people sold them claiming they cured, prevented, or somehow helped all sorts of things. It would take hours to compile a list of everything various people claimed those stupid bracelets (or headbands) did and the list would be a mile long. Those things were everywhere for a while and stupid people bought a ton of them.
That dust in the wristband could be radioactive. It looks a lot like "negative ion" wristbands that were actual nuclear hazards
At 18:11, you can see in the Amazon description that it's advertising "negative ions".
Love these collabs. The connection Linus and Mehdi have is undoubtedly electrifying 💀
I would love to see ElectroBOOM play a hysterical "Torture Master" in a lighthearted action movie! 🤣
@14:13 I just thought he was an electrical engineer with a sadistic lean to him but the dude he also whispers with electricity!
If you still have the japanese bracelet it might be worth checking it with a Geiger counter as some of those bracelets use radioactive particles in them.
This needs to be tested, I've seen videos that has silicon bracelets and pendants that were "negative ion health products" that were actually radioactive.
Yep, thorium.
If you look at those bracelets that you was talking about you'll note that they have white particles in them and then this bracelet does not have those white particles. So I'm willing to bet money that it's perfectly fine
@@the_undead the glitter in this bracelet could be coated in thorium
Yeah and amazon bans them, and the the atomic convention or something made it illegal to sell them
I want to see more collabs with electroboom, these videos are not only entertaining but also very informative
I usually skip the ad at the beginning of a RUclips video but if you are willing to be electrobooms test subject then you deserve it
20:56 So this is how they created the monster grunting sounds in the original DooM games
Well, we already knew the wireless ESD-bracelets don't work from one of @ElectroBOOM's old videos.
However, seeing Linus and Mehdi shock each other *is* really fun.
Great to see a second collaboration between these two and hope to see more.
Anyone with basic understanding of how electricity works shouldn't need a video to prove it haha. But I agree, watching them fool around was very satisfying.
You might want to get that "Japanese" bracelet tested with a geiger counter. Some scammers like to put thorium in silicone bracelets like that, and that might be what the white powder is.
Why would they do that?
@@THE-X-Force There is a whole set of production of "negative ion" "health" products that supposedly have healing properties. They get taken down from time to time, but occasionally pop up under other fake claims as they try to get rid of excess inventory when they are shut down for selling them as a health product.
The Thought Emporium has done several videos on the topic, including this one: ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html
@@THE-X-Force Recycled inventory from "negative ions" scams.
In particular, the little white specs they show on the close up look pretty similar to the thorium oxide that is used in the negative ion bracelets.
@thethoughtemporium made two videos reviewing these bracelets and explaining how they’re radioactive.
m.ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/3BA5bw1EV5I/видео.html
At 2:30 in the 2nd video, he showed a bracelet with a similar cross section to the one Mehdi wore.
13:20 the best part of the video is “feel it? Good *maniacal laughter*”
Had to wear those constantly at my last job. Even with those, ESD table tops, and other precautions we were shocking our scopes and throwing them out of calibration all the time, so we had to upgrade to using ESD lotion to increase conductivity on our skin, using two straps (usually one on the wrist, one on the ankle), and connecting those straps to a simple monitoring device at each lab station that would emit a high pitched wail any time it detected a loss of conductivity. The conductivity of the strap itself wasn't nearly good enough compared to the metal plate on the buckle.
Having gone through (UK) anti-static training for a military component supply company, I can confer that it is SO important for affective protection. Great video and very informative.
effective
