It's actually fascinating, that something is made up of fairly rigid parts can end up so elastic. It's basically the same for molecules: take some singular molecules that are rigid by themselves (so that you can not force them to change their shape) link them up together in a veeeeeery long line and you get rubber.
It does offer a great way to demonstrate how some molecules behave , of course the Legos would need to be arranged to be at least simular in shape to the original molecules.
I love that he shows the build from the ground up, and shows that it's a lot of the same steps over and over again, which can allow us to follow along if we want without disrespecting the time and effort he put into it.
Interesting thing about rigid structures is that they get more flexible the longer they are. A tube of the toughest steel several thousand kilometers long could be tied in a knot if you wanted without compromising the structure. This illustrates that concept perfectly. I’d love to see him do a ring of this stuff. Or a sphere. Although doing a sphere would probably take several thousand dollars worth of Lego blocks and I can’t even imagine the size required to do so. It’d definitely be one of, if not the largest Lego builds ever made.
The sights and sounds of this one were extra fascinating. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the wiggles. Very relaxing and wonderful shapes! Thank you for sharing!

9:12 Reminds me of the intro to James Bond movies where 007 walks over through the scope/lens and shoots when he pulls it back and forth slowly like that. Great build!
This one actually helps demonstrating how matter in different forms work, if there's enough space in between molecules and they're still bound by their attraction forces, they can be soft and maleable, most like liquids
I really appreciate how you take the time to play with your creation and not bother to edit it out. Something I find myself guilty of doing, along with I’m sure many others, reaching various stages of the build.
i find your gloves the best part about this. they’re weirdly satisfying to see, call me crazy (I might be) but they’re just so relaxing I can’t describe it. very nice videos, 20/10 would watch again
I've recently been introduced to the craziness that is watching your videos on 2x speed. Watching at the intended speed is beautiful and astonishing; Seeing the incredible things you can create and the mastery with which you create them is the absolute epitome of art. Watching at hyper speed highlights a sense of whimsy and reminds me that, no matter how complex these builds are, they're made from toys after all... And I can laugh at the double-time click-clacks of the pieces being put together like you're a robot in a factory. (Not to mention how hilarious all the ring-style builds look when they're spun at higher speed than normal!) In all honesty, all it does is make me watch your videos twice. Keep doing what you're doing; You never fail to amaze
Congratulations on your recent prize with this build. You mentioned making a shorter, more tightly edited video and that is great, but i love this one because of all the joys along the way.
This is one of the MOST SATISFYING videos i have ever seen all the snaps and the sounds it makes when he rolls it are just SO SATISFYING TO ME I LOVE IT
If you could partner with a biochemist to see if your lego creation is anything like structures inside living cells (I'm thinking microtubules or centrioles) you'd stand a good chance of winning a Nobel Prize. 💯
So in the beginning when you unfold your first and second rings, you are taking the same pieces connected in the same way and turning them from a thinner, less-dense arc to a wider, more-dense arc. After the circle has been unlinked and you turned it into a spiral over itself, can you still perform that same motion in reverse? i.e. can you stretch the outer part of the spiral to make it longer and thinner without disconnecting anything?
@@BrickBending that would be amazing to see, especially if were incremental from large diameter to small to large like a Venturi tube or a kind of 3D sine wave. Great work man!
I love that lil Lego cavedude features so heavily in this one from the outset, but feel strongly about the liberties that were taken with the constant threats to his life. I imagine there’s a gruesome outtakes video that will surface on the Dark Web… 😱 (Awesome construction btw. Like a huge slinky sunflower.)
Amazing yet completely insane! I love it Jeff, the yellow monster coil. A true testament to either your genius or madness😆. Is it almost time for the caveman story yet? I've been waiting patiently for that one 😊.
Me: calls Lego store "Hi, I'd like to buy a couple thousand Legos." "Well sure, we have many sets that have a few thousands." "No. I want 3000 6x1 plates, all yellow. " "Oh, ok sure let me just place the order then..."
This has better written plot and character development than modern Disney's films. It conveys ideas thru limited medium much better and even has stuff like experimenting with lighting. Moreover, it implied idea of a donut-formation, but left it unclear whether it's possible, done or what are the consequences of such actions
Can you lock the spirals with a 1x1 plate? Can you lock the twist? What if each twist is more tight than the previous, making a conic curve? And, of course, the extreme…can it become a torus?
A torus is doable, but it would take another few thousand 1x6 plates. I could lock the coils with 1x1 plates but not with 23 points. It would probably be more like 16, but that would still be a cool shape, and even sturdier. And shrinking each coil is a really interesting idea!
@@elizabethsharp9556 the symbol in itself is fine, it's just that it is a yellow star (I admit it has too many points) and it goes back to bad times. Maybe I am exposed to too much red hearing and codes nowadays
Genius experiment and build with LEGO. You have created an advanced LEGO slinky. You sure find the most interesting ways to turn LEGO into art and technology.
I love how you not only build these things, but that you don't forget that LEGO is a toy and you _play with it_
Don’t necessarily agree, but I’d say that this craziness is just as amazingly awkward as it is satisfying.

It's actually fascinating, that something is made up of fairly rigid parts can end up so elastic.

Yeah what is this 7th grade chemistry?
Technically, you need a methyl every 4th carbon on your long line, and you get rubber.
It does offer a great way to demonstrate how some molecules behave , of course the Legos would need to be arranged to be at least simular in shape to the original molecules.

My LEGOs don’t wiggle wiggle, they roll…
the wobble tunnel. amazing. the end would have been perfect if the tunnel endings would have been connected to form a ring.
I was waiting for this!
I too was expecting that as the last step. He teased us when he stretched it into a half-ring.
I agree, but I think I'd need another 2000 1x6 plates to make that happen. Guess I'll have to expand my inventory 😂

Yes. This could be roughly three times longer by just expanding each coil. It would probably be less flexible, but a different kind of amazing. : )
@@BrickBending that would be amazing to see, especially if were incremental from large diameter to small to large like a Venturi tube or a kind of 3D sine wave.

Honestly, adjusting the diameter is what I thought the finale would be.

You are a madman and a genius. I started watching you today and now I can’t stop. Keep up the good work!
What a nice illustration for the concept of emergent properties!
Those twist releases at the end were really cool. I wonder if it would work as a slinky or just snap?
It probably needs to be longer for that
Let’s just say that his builds are oddly satisfying
I imagine if you coiled the helix (spring shape) more tightly, you could safely bend the ends to meet each other and forth a torus (donut shape)
You might be right. The coils get less flexible the more tight they are, but that might be an interesting experiment--just to see what happens. : )
Or the whole thing could just explode
The new Dune movie is looking pretty good
Idea: make another one so you can loop it back on itself and make a big doughnut.
i love how he casually DUPLICATES already complex builds as if with a snap
Can you lock the spirals with a 1x1 plate?
Can you lock the twist?
What if each twist is more tight than the previous, making a conic curve?
And, of course, the extreme…can it become a torus?
A torus is doable, but it would take another few thousand 1x6 plates. I could lock the coils with 1x1 plates but not with 23 points. It would probably be more like 16, but that would still be a cool shape, and even sturdier. And shrinking each coil is a really interesting idea!
when you want to play with a slinky but all you have is legos
If you doubled the length of the last one you could probably wrap it all the way around to connect it to itself again
This is the definition of “Double it and give it to the next person”
