In this video, I do a quick cleanup of the waste from when I made uranium glass. I basically just ended up keeping all of it and in the future, I will pay for it to all be disposed of safely/properly.

@The Peace ok, kid,
I really like the name NileBlue to be honest
same
I agree.
i concur with you
The name is alright but it's not as good as NileRed. This is just a cheap rip off channel that copies Nile red but instead of showing actual cool chemistry experiments he just shows the boring stuff like cleaning up after they finish the reactions. And if he wanted to mess with radioactive stuff he should buy some "Negative ion powder" or products from Amazon and or Google! A channel by the name of The Thought Emporium discovered that many of them contain Thorium powder to produce ions. Check out his video Negative Ion Products Are Actually RADIOACTIVE at the link below or just search for it your self. If you like NileRed/Blue then you are almost guaranteed to like this channel too as he creates his own scientific equipment like plasma sputterers, A cold plasma torch, a meat grape, a human brain culture connected to a circuit, fake leather and MUCK MORE! Here is the link to the video: ruclips.net/video/C7TwBUxxIC0/видео.html
Edit: This comment was a joke with a sincere suggestion of another channel you might like that apparently is still going over people's heads 9 months later. I know they are the same person and that is hinted at when I say Nile Red/Blue.
@@evilcanofdrpepper Thanks for the advertisement
"There was confusion about the name" How? It's not like people go like "Oh, very interesting, this channel name is very similar to NileRed. I am certain there is no connection between those two whatsoever!"
LOL
I was a little confused on a different video. RUclips gave me a NileBlue video recommendation before I'd ever heard of NileRed, so I was confused by the difference between the name and the watermark.
Reyas Wilfred yeah same, but I figured it out after a few videos
You have to remember that most people are dumb as rocks.
youtube recomended me NileBlue clean up that made me watch some of his videos, but i never thought this was a behind-the-scenes channel of another channel, so i didn´t even knew NileRed was a thing until now.
Mom: Honey what are you doing?
Nilered: Nothing, just cleaning my URANIUM GLASS WASTE
His mom, used to these things: ok! Be done by dinner!

You have no idea how interesting and educating these "boring" clean up videos are. I love them.
Emme Pombär precisely
I do like cleanup video . As a patreon I am even willing to pay for them. They are really informative.
This was the cleanup video I looked forward to the most and I feel it lived up to my expectations. It wouldn't bother me one bit for if he made more "boring" videos, as long as he has fun making them
Yeah frankly if this turns into a William Osman style of channel I'll probably be unsubscribing (which i wouldn't blame him for, since it appears to be a popular format, but its not for me).
"...cabinet, that I use to store all my radioactive stuff"

Not only is there a river called “The Nile” but there are stains/dyes used in cellular biology called “Nile Red” and “Nile Blue.” Basically, they make different parts of a cell show up under a microscope. Reacting Nile blue with sulfuric acid produces Nile red. Very creative channel names in my opinion.
"Nile Blue" is amazing, and since he really likes the name himself...
Here's another vote *not* to change it.
I didn't know this, but now I know I think it's best not to change it
I like the names and also cast a vote to not change it
Big brain
I believe in a Q&A, NileRed explained that he in fact did name his channel after the dye.
It seems like the consensus is to keep the name Nile Blue, and I totally agree. I thought it was pretty clever when I found it.

*Geiger counter has a stroke*
Nigel: The radioactivity really wasn't that bad

when i got to that part i was actually feeling bad and after that nothing.
Geiger counters will have a stroke if you bring them on a flight, too. You really need to look at the readings to determine the level of radioactivity, honestly.
@@Nixeu42 thanks for clarification. I guess saying "The geiger counter makes a noise similar to a stroke, making the substance in question deceptively appear far more radioactive then it actually is. Nigel: The radioactivity really wasn't that bad" doesn't roll off the tongue as easily unfortunately

Well, it was x22 times bigger, than normal radioactive background, normal 0.3 μZv/hr
have you heard one of these low counters near a highly radioactive source? its an ear splitting high pitched whine, they sound like they are in soo much pain lol
At least it didn't read 3.6
Renzo Kuken they’re going “ooouch too much radiation stop thaaat”
@@Spectre4490 22* background isn't much, you can't even see a statistical increase in cancers until 100mSV per year and backgrond is generally between 1 to 10 mSV. Handling radioactive material usually poses more danger through it's toxicity than it's radioactive emissions.
"for now it's probably just going to sit there indefinitely, but eventually I do plan to pay someone to deal with it properly"
So same strategy as US government.
and make mexico pay for it!
or dump it in ghana
Lol. If you have chemical waste in Germany, you can dispose it to an extra made truck of the waste disposal company that is going to deal with the waste for free.
@@crystalmik8410 yeah pretty nice, but there is a maximum amount and you'll have to give some personal information.
But he's in Canada, what's Canada's preferred method of ignoring problems?
3:17 "It's just gonna sit there indefinitely, but eventually I do plan to pay someone, to deal with it properly." Funny, that's pretty much the same solution the US has for radioactive waste.
4:50 NileRed= danger
NileBlue= safe
The confusion is paired with the content. So when the content gets a bit more disconnected from NileRed the confusion should also fade.
NileBlue is a great companion channel, it does not define the content, but links to you other one. I'd say, keep it. But, whatever you call it, I'll be watching!

Keep NileBlue, there is no reason to change it over 'name confusion' plus its already a pretty awesome name.
Honestly I really like that the names are so similar. it makes it easy to identify his channels and to go between them. I have a bad memory and even I can remember these two channels this way.

Yes finally a vid on how to clear up radioactive waste that i really needed to see. thx nile.
Just an idea: incinerate the paper and gloves in your furnace, add silica and the powdered uranium waste, and vitrify it all into glass. This is one of the ways radioactive waste is industrially dealt with, and it might make for an interesting video. Then, there's no chance of water getting in, or the jar getting knocked out of the cabinet, contaminating the room and air with radioactive dust. It makes the whole thing a bit safer to store, and as I mentioned, might make for an interesting video.
You should keep the name NileBlue. Its basically the best name you could use for this channel.
He wants the name to represent other people who work on this channel too. TeamRed / TeamBlue or something along those lines could work too lol.
@@archiveaccount4335 actually, NileRed represents a color pigment, not even a human being…

Hey I burn chemicals in my spoon too!
I like how he is so calm about the uranium even though it's probably killing him.
Nah, that amount of radiation is about one dental x-ray per hour and that's with the meter right over it. It'll be much less in a sealed bag
The radiation, while dangerous if exposed to over months or years, does a lot less damage than people believe. Especially from these uranium salts which are most likely already depleted uranium, so the really dangerous stuff isn't in there
I'm glad you did this video, even though there wasn't much to show. Uranium is a very toxic substance and I was incredibly curious what would be done with it. I am especially happy to have seen how you got it out of that rough looking grinding dish, as that was really keeping me up at night.

@@lightdark00 Because warm water is relaxing to the body, but not flesh-boiling water
@@lightblue254 The object of getting rid of the itch, is to denature the introduced protein that causes it, with heat. A spoon heated with a flame, to the point it's about 130F will not burn you, but it's enough. Hot water heaters can also heat water to a point that changes the protein. We also have proteins in our body, that give beneficial reactions to high heat or low cold. There's no worry of damaging human body proteins with the temperatures involved.

I've seen people suggest "NileTwo", "NileCrew"... I personally like these ideas, but I dunno, I just like the NileBlue name better. NileCrew is probably my favorite of the ideas, kudos to whoever first commented it, but the NileBlue thing makes it both feel like it's part of the group while making it harder to mix up because half the name sounds way different.
Monika Kincelová someone suggested naming it “Nile Infra Red” bc you get to see beyond the former Nile Red.
@@AFrogInTheStars Oh yeah, I saw that, too. That one was also a cool idea. Though, someone else explained that some of these "Nile" already exist and I believe it was stated one can be made from another which, by the meaning behind a name, sound a bit more cohesive to me. But well, all of these are nice. ^^
