I'm going through welding school right now and I'm not 100% sure but galvanizing is putting Zinc on the metal to help it not rust and Zinc boils before steel melts, that's why its no good to do it without proper ventilation. That weird web might be the Zinc coating boiling but not fully evaporating, thus making the forbidden cotton candy.
Asked my teacher and can confirm it is boiled Zinc and very toxic. Also you should check the wire feed settings on your MIG machine. It looks and sounds like you're not putting out enough wire to start the short circuit.

I think you should make the tips of the jaws farther apart and bulbous. Having sharp tips seems like it makes you hesitant to thrust at someone, and having the jaws open farther would make it easier to get them around your target.
The second design is really good, and would make it really easy for groups of three (2 with mancatchers and one ready with handcuffs) to subdue and detain people without hurting them. My only worry is that the lack of jaws might encourage police to trip or strike with it. The second design would also be very useful for reinforcing lines of riot police, and give them an options for pushing people back instead of hitting with batons, using tasers, and dousing people in pepper spray and mustard gas.
Both are great designs, but i think the first one with bulbous tips would be the winner. Especially with two or more vs one person.
Cops with mustard gas? Where the hell do you live? 😂
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595if the op lives in the U.S.A., they might mean tear gas. Police here are actually known to use that on groups of protestors

@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 I believe he means tear gas.... hopefully he means tear gas...
The white spider web stuff is the result of welding galvanized metal. It’s just burned zinc. And the reason you shouldn’t weld galvanized metal is not only that it puts off toxic gas but it also lets off small particles of zinc that are harmful to your lungs if you breathe them in. An N95 mask or a respirator and a well ventilated area will protect you from the fumes good enough that you shouldn’t have to worry about being harmed.
Only if you have weak lungs buddy, I've been breathing zinc my entire life
We all appreciate your knowledge, but Mr.Thing does not participate in safety. I'll definitely keep that in mind tho, that's a good piece of info

Getting rid of the claw is definitely an improvement, too much complexity just increases the chance of a fault and makes it heavier. As hard as it is to use, imagine how hard it would be if it was just as heavy but the mechanism jammed? No good, better off without it. However, the main flaw with just the crescent is that the curve is far too shallow. The way it seemed like you two kept getting out was by basically twisting it and then stepping past, but that wouldn't be possible if it was more of a semi-circle shape. That's how the ones used by Japanese police are designed, so it's obviously an effective design.
I think cops should absolutely use them, because unlike a taser you can adjust the danger involved. A taser will put the same charge into an elderly woman with a weak heart as it will a 130kg biker fuelled by meth, but with a man catcher you can just be more gentle.
My high school had a plasma cutter for the welding workshop. It wasn’t one u held in your hand tho. It was automated, on a table-like grid. You would input the values and dimensions of whatever you want it to cut, lay the metal out, and the plasma cutter would get to work. Was really cool watching it do its thing. Very precise tool it is.

news: Grandma dies of electroshocking
Ididathing: Proceeds to add spikes to mechanism
For the last 5 min section, asuming the same scenarios are in place (1v1 melee combat), I imagine the best strat for the man-catcher weilder would be to pin the agressor, but do not use your weight to keep them pinned, for the angle of leverage neccessary puts you in range of your flailing opponent. Rather manage as much leverage as you can, and if they try to escape, wait for them to be getring up and strike hard.

@@thebakedchefmaybe ididathing can make a longer version
@FeeshUnofficial i would go down south and try it, she's still pretty fresh so we could probably pull it off @ididathing
Have tried using a taser on her?
Instead of metal claws, use a loop of cable or rope on the end, kinda like a mechanical lasso. You could use an anti locking belay device or something similar so when you get the tension on the person you can lock it into place pretty easily. It'll be a tighter fit and work with more body types. You'll have to get it over someone's head but if you catch they're neck, arm, or leg it seems just as viabke. The whole loop idea just seems more versatile to me.
So the things they use on stray dogs
I grew up in a martial arts school and almost bought one of these man catchers from brenden lais martial arts supplies but they were selling the size this video must be based on but there is another one china/ India design in history almost identical just smaller like a limb/neck catcher. That’s the one that I kept trying to find as it was small enough to kata or perform with. This takes me back to the 70s
The fact that this man still has all of his fingers and toes is a miracle
yup, dude is crazy to do all this shit in bare feet, especially plasma cutting lol
Think he's immune to amputations and major burns at this point.
In my country our government has banned the use of Tasers by police... instead we use some thing similar to a Japanese Net Gun(serchit) for the last 8 years and we have had 4,791 suspect captures when in a foot persuit with 0 deaths.
The fact that he’s healthier than most people still is amazing, i feel like he’s just physically immune to most things at this point
@@hollenfeuer1i guess I probably should have read more comments instead of commenting immediately but i bet he gets better eyesight by staring directly at the plasma cutter with no mask
The way he unintentionally lowers you to your knees while trying to show you the problem is hilarious.
Im not sure that was unitentional he knew what he was doing
@@IdidathingHe is too damn strong
for the more basic mancatcher to work, you need a longer handle, so that you dont need to fear any melee attacks. a helmet will also help. then you need to charrge them really hard and leanve them firmly pinned against the wall. if your handle is longer you will have a longer lever that kind of helps even up the game. also get 5 friends with other mancatchers. lets see how them grannies like that.
You should’ve made the spikes on the arms face the other direction. So that they can slide around the body easily without getting caught, and then when you close it, it grips onto them like teeth. Like the one trap in that saw movie where the chick has to stick her hand into a box thing to get an antidote or whatever and gets her arm stuck because of the reversed blades. Can go in but can’t go out.
the fact Alex went from using a harmless old man to test his creation to an active shooter is very brave
Read this comment mid-video and it scared me
Huh?
@@pauriusd6626same

Hey there, 15 year Pipefitter here with welding knowledge. That death spiderweb your seeing is definitely common when welding galvanized materials. Typically you grind as much of the galvanized material off as possible until you get to the base metal before welding. Working with structural steel sometimes which is typically hot dipped galvanized, you end up grinding off somewhere around 1/8” thickness of galvanized material. Its definitely not good to breath in, but it also weakens the structural integrity of your weld if you leave to much of it. If you’re welding over it, it tends to create a lot of popping and extra sparks flying. It can also kind of catch on fire and burn a greenish color. Nice project by the way!
the old fellas used to drink a cup of milk to line their guts or something like that to stop getting sick
I’m a 6 month pipe fitter, can you let me know what tools I should focus on getting first and any tools you recommend from personal experience
So basically ur saying he has halved his life expectancy, but made a good RUclips video.
So him eating it probably wasnt a good idea I imagine.
@@Roach_Dogg_JRnah tons of people have welded tons gal steel and lived to 70, still terrible to breath in tho but 30mins of welding ain't gonna shorten anything
the ant claws are the best iteration, considering the intimidating look and the pain if you struggle when caught you probably need to adjust by adding extra elbows for wider grab and/or tweaking the tightness when locked position
You can add a counterweight to make it more nimble, and allow the jaws to extend wider. That'll form a shield. You can also maybe have a cross guard midway up the shaft in case they start getting close. As for preventing them from just grabbing it... I have no clue.
When Aleksa said, "look" as he manipulated you in the jaws of death, I couldn't stop laughing. Always top tier at IDAT.
while levering the thing to show it to him, and clawing him in the back in doing so. Well, it brought him to his knees pretty easily.

The “spider webbing” is basically zinc floss… the piping is galvanized with zinc and I’m not 100% on how it’s formed, but I have the same issues when smelting brass with high zinc levels. Zinc tends to boil off and leaves the webbing… zamack metal makes a funky yellow webbing… one of its alloy ingredients boiling off as well… likely magnesium

if someone pushes the claw down to get out, you can just pull it while its still wrapped around their legs and the fall, so its not really that easy to get out if you are willing to get a bit rough with them.

Absolutely, was really entertaining
Next, you should invent some kind of foot covering that might provide protection from the sparks of the plasma cutting. You could even put hardy bottoms on them so they withstand the wear and tear associated with repeated walking. They could be secured with some kind of thin ropelike device that would allow a snug fit regardless of small differences in the sizes of people's feet. If made properly, they might serve the additional purpose of allowing people to walk painlessly over all kinds of terrain.
I don't know. Doesn't seem like it would have many applications.
An apron for feet. What a genius.
Like some kind of built-in carpet.
No, no, more like an movable floor for your feet.
You could put like a checkmark on the side of them to indicate that you indeed did check out the electric safety manuals your job provided.
Great video!It would be definitely work on more vulnerable people. And, where it may not seem as effective, remember usually there would be backup to assist. So definitely viable.
However when Alexa was trying to “kill” you, it didn’t seem quite as effective, but in all fairness, if a young crazy man was running at me with a knife, I’m dropping my man catcher and pulling out my gun.
12:55 the "charlie bit me" kid never grew up
The spiderweb-like substance you saw is likely zinc oxide fumes. Galvanized pipes are coated with zinc to prevent corrosion. When the zinc coating is heated during welding, it can vaporize and react with the oxygen in the air to form zinc oxide. This zinc oxide can appear as a white, wispy, spiderweb-like smoke.
Yep, was just going to say Zinc. You beat me to it 😊. I think the sickness you get from inhaling it is called Zinc fume fever? Anyway, it can make you really dizzy and nauseated 🤢. Not permanent as far as I know, but not fun either 😅
@@r4z0r7o3 Yep. Dads a welder, would chug milk after jobs that used galvanized pipes because the calcium bonds with the zinc or something and gets rid of it.
The milk chug thing is bull shit (old wives tale) wear a respirator :)
I'm not even sure why drinking milk would work in the first place. Breathing in fumes would affect your lungs in the first place. You drink milk, not breathe it in. Calcium would also take a while before your body would extract it from the smaller intestine into your blood, that's why when in hospitals, you got IV drops.
Having to eat or drink the medicine to work is very inefficient and too slow, and the medicine being Milk as an example.
Another fun fact, to bind Calcium with Zinc, it requires them to have negative and positive charges. Calcium in Milk has a stable charge, in other words, they wouldn't even be able to bond in the first place.

5:02 You aren't too wrong with calling it a death spider web. That is zinc oxide and a lot of it is going into the air while you are welding it.

2. Add adjustable levels for how tight the claws lock. This will allow for more variance in the size of your opponent.

@@lstchance87 I think that soon they will start to use those kevlar string lasso shooters to capture people. But I still am sure that tazers are very good.
@@Argonikron yep and the moment one some how wraps around a person's neck or they fall and hit their head and die they will say I it's the lasso not the means in which it was used
I think a part of why they work so well is that you have multiple police using them on one person, so they can’t fend off more than one at a time.
Yeah so it works in countries where there are more people and less technology
@@TheEpicNoob where Police Is more organized
@@sisi5980 the places with organized police uses batons and riot shields, way safe for the officer, not so much for the unfortunate foe that will get beaten
Sorry to be the guy that ruins the fun, but this could never be a viable option in a police chase situation as it would mean the police running down with these like spartans as they chase criminals lol.
A taser is easy to holster without affecting your movement as much.
@@TheEpicNoob I don't think its about less technology, its just a matter of police staffing. In my area 3 or 4 cops showing up for stuff is pretty common and if they all had mancatchers it would work on anybody not using a gun.
you could like... put a lot of rubber on this
and in metal
so it doesn't hurt and you can continue with the spikes on
also maybe do some more on top like
Stack 3 Man catcher on top of each other
also you can try making It like to uso on The legs
8:38 Bro he just made the next part of his spring lock suit 💀
11:30 Imagine being the neighbor and seeing two grown adults trying to catch a plastic-knife-wielding elderly with a makeshift medieval weapon in their backyard 💀
Considering the (lack of) reaction fromt he dog, this is normal , maybe they see stuff like this every week :D
We should all make ludicrously giant weapons out of cardboard and go to war with each other
Paper cuts be the death of thee.
It's all fun and giggle until your weird cousin shows up with a rebar.
@@NoNo-xh7ru yes, but we want less rules and more possible lawsuits
@@NoNo-xh7ruJust looked it up, but sadly they don't make videos anymore. We should revive that!
Ever hear of Boffing? Not cardboard, but padded weapons (pvc pipe, pipe insulation, and duct tape) and you can make crazy ones. Like, I used a giant trident that I made most of the time when I did it years ago!
That old man is legit
@Ididathing nice but you might wanna consider putting a rubber flat handle or something on the end, because if someone pushes the thing pack at you the long bar you hold the one that's hollowed out will quickly make you into the world's most gruesome tree tapping rp with you being the tree and the sap being your guts or powdered ribs
I always love when Mr. Thing does a video about something he already did. It gives me an uneasy feeling of dread in the tip of my spine when I see him do something familiar but not.
I get a different kind of feeling at the tip of a different body part.
Just the tip
Dont age him like that. Mr Thing is his father.
@@ikovader dawg what!?
Are you sure it's the tip of your spine that's tingling? LMFAO
The white "foam" is coming from the galvanized outer layer of the pipe you welded. Pro tip don't inhale alot of it, as it will make your poops go faster, and it's very hazardous.
Keep up the great content! ❤
Best regards from Denmark
HE ATE IT
I think it's zinc, right?
@@hamptergamin591 ;) it tastes disgusting, when you weld alot in galvanized partz the aluminum/zink layer creates alot of that white "foamy" stuff, so much that sometimes I can detach from the material and fly around. It's not deadly, but dangerous in continued and repeating exposure.
If you work with this every day please wear air filters or have proper air ventilation, preferably with point suction for the welding smoke.
@@mattwardproductions7399 Aluminum/zink alloy :) Still looks crazy though! ;P Like very fine spider web or spider eggs
If you need to weld galvanized steel drink plenty of milk
It could be improved with a spring and ratchet mechanism. Maybe put a button on the front that touches the person. When you push it onto them the spring is released pushing the inner tube back, you get the added force of the spring and the ratchet holds it closed at any point so you don't need to worry about size of the jaws when closed.
Bro got spring locked
