Next video: Serial killer rates unrealistic horror movies. (and gets mad)
lol
yes please
Focus on get mad
I would pay to see that
wheres ted bundy when you need him
You better NOT even try to figure out logic and physics in *Bollywood* movies. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Loool
That fighting scene at the end of Main hoon na.... SRK falls, then the villain walks around him (in real time while SRK is still falling very slowly) and punches him all while SRK is in the air falling in “slow motion”.
Specially south Indian movies
😂😂some south indian movies broke physics.....
You'd expect it to be more realistic since almost all Bollywood movies use 0% CGI.
So real explosions are:
- Short
- Loud crack
- Fireball that's about 30% larger than explosive but lasts like half a second.
- Shock wave doesn't throw you, instead basically knocks you down.
- Shock wave will likely rupture your lungs.
- Ears and Lungs are affected most
- If you blow up a house fireballs will be about 1-2 seconds long. There will be small fires around.
- Most dangerous thing is fragmentation that will practically blend you.
Notes:
- Shooting a gas tank will not make it explode
- Pulling a pin with your teeth will basically be very awkward and embarrassing because it's very tough. May break your teeth.
Some body not only will pulling the pin make you look like a dumbass you’ll break your teeth
He said you wouldn´t be able to pull the pin with your teeth. You would NOT pull the pin, ONLY break your teeth. It could be right. When you see actual footage of people using grenades, they do really jank very hard on the pin.
Used grenades. If you attempt to pull pin with teeth, those teeth go away forever and you still have an unarmed grenade.
It should be noted that what exactly happens with an explosion differs depending on a number of variables.
"So real explosions are:
"
"- Short
"
Instant. Not short. Instant.
"- Loud crack
"
Yes.
"- Fireball that's about 30% larger than explosive but lasts like half a second."
No, an instant shockwave and then all you see is the smoke. The fireball is too fast to see except occasionally.
"- Shock wave doesn't throw you, instead basically knocks you down."
No, it turns your body into a bunch of unrecognizable pieces that simply fall down.
"- Shock wave will likely rupture your lungs.
"
If it doesn't instantly kill you... Which it most likely will...
"- Ears and Lungs are affected most
"
And the rest of your body which is turned into... I don't even know... A bunch of pieces...
"- If you blow up a house fireballs will be about 1-2 seconds long. There will be small fires around.
"
If it's Gasoline then it will just burn down very quick. If you are talking about HE then no, the house will instantly shatter into a billion pieces. There won't be a fireball. Just smoke and fragments everywhere.
"- Most dangerous thing is fragmentation that will practically blend you."
True.
Notes:
"- Shooting a gas tank will not make it explode
"
True,
He should at least note that the explosion in Dark Knight was a real demolition of a real building in Chicago
True but he only went over the setup stage. He probably didnt go over that part since it was real, no need to tweak perfection.
Also he assumed joker was the one that planted the bombs, but he does have a crew and it’s not like joker does busy work
That's probably how it got 6/10

So what I'm getting here is that comedies are the most realistic movies.
Could be the reason why im a bigger fan of comedy than over budgeted hollywood crap.
they always have been. even scrubs, which isn’t the most accurate medically, gets the realities of being a medical intern a lot more right than shows like gray’s anatomy
@@andysmith5464 Runway in FF6>Europe
It would have been hilarious if Indiana Jones had just slowly fallen apart over the two hours of the movie from acute radiation sickness.
The whole point of the 21 Jump Street scene is to make fun of explosions in action scenes...
Love when the experts analyze impossible things "He regenerates, so I guess you could walk away from this?"
It's only impossible in our own universe, but judging things based on the internal consistency and internal rules and logic of a piece of fiction makes a lot of sense. It just depends on which parts they telegraph as being "not like logic in our world". There's no real reason why explosions would work any differently in, say, X-men, but they do make clear that the way Wolverine works isn't like in our world, i.e. he regenerates. So then it's a matter of taking that internal logic into account.
@@MerelvandenHurk Thanks for explaining what fiction is
@@Sunprism No need to get patronizing.
@Katora Khan I'm not uptight. Stop shutting down people like that. If we can't hold a conversation without being patronizing and calling people uptight, we're not gonna get anywhere.

Except for Indiana Jones
I love how comedies are that making fun how Hollywood portrays explosions, are also the most accurate.
Yeah in a way to make fun of unrealistic movie actions
The most ridiculous thing about this is trying to blow up a fuel tank on a moving truck. Dude, what did the truck driver ever do to you? He is just trying to make a living.
There is endless 4th wall breaking material for anyone who wants to point out how dumb most movies are if you bring in enough experts. It is not just explosions, military gargin, or how people actually do their jobs, but what plants/animals you see/hear for a specific region of the world.

Yeah, the explosion itself was clearly inspired by real nuclear test footage making it one of the most realistic nukes in movies ever.
That's an awesome point my friend.

Imagine how cool it gotta to be having “Explosive Engineer“ in your work resume
@Councilman Les Wynan I disagree. A lot of infrastructure work uses controlled detonations. I mean not all the the time but I've never seen an "Explosives Engineer" major at any universities, so there's not a lot of people to call either I'd imagine. And you can probably do contract work with the military or maybe he is in the military.
If I could only go back in time and tell my younger self that there's such a thing as an Explosive Engineer.
Or anything other than unemployed
eh, i was en explosives expert in the Corps and its done nothing for me in the civilian sector save for having cool stories to tell at parties.
@@vielarcrom4934 what kind of explosives expert?
Appropriately for a video about explosions, this expert is HOT.
RIGHT? Holy cow he’s hot.

0:03 Thank me later 😂
The Dark Knight scene is real, they actually blew up a old factory. Also the Joker has a lot of followers/henchmen that will plant the explosives for him.
Captain Communism his issue wasn’t that you could rig a hospital for demolition; his issue was that you wouldn’t be able to disguise all the charges so that it went unnoticed by SOMEONE in the hospital.
Actualllly
I'm sorry but I dont believe this dude at all
@@blake60ah41 the hospital was being evacuated. That would make it easy to send some guys in with police/nurse/maintenance uniforms. Also there are O2 tanks on every single floor, usually stockpiled in a single supply room as backups or when transporting patients. Stick a single charge on each sector's O2 tank stockpile as well as on the main O2 tank that feeds the hardlined room O2. Boom
@@danboom101 cool now i know how to blow up a hospital

Jigga Boo I was 2 months old when that movie came out
@Jigga Boo yeah but the explosion it self isnt unrealistic so the fact that it just got 1 star is confusing me
Damn, I didn't know Clark Kent was an explosives expert.
Marsh Narsh lol
yeah he place the bomb , he itself inform it , and he was ready to rescue .
Uh no, he looks more like an adult Tom Holland.
The Joker part... Joker has henchmen everywhere, it is likely he had people planting the explosives in the hospital before causing them to be evacuated.
It would be cool to have these experts critique movie scenes and then bring one scene themselves that they think if the best in terms of being realistic
Imagine having this guy watch Michael Bay movies with you.

@@gladonos3384 it was real
yeah, that was just stupid. low rating because it was unlikely? okay? unlikely things happen in real life
My boy. He's thee Joker, the man can do anything easily. He plans ahead!
He had prep time
Indiana Jones doesn’t die of radiation sickness because he drank from the Holy grail.
Damien333 Good job on pointing it out. I, and seemingly many people, had kind of forgotten!
Except; and also stated in the movie by the Knight guarding the grail: The magic of The holy Grail only works IF you stay guarding The Holy Grail.
Christian Münster so, if what you’re saying is true, Henry Jones should have died of the gunshot right after he left the tomb, right? But he did not
I have no faith in humanity if you can’t even navigate the basic elements of the plot in “the Last Crusade” it’s not complicated. Go watch the movie again.
Sr. was healed from his wounds in the temple. After he crossed the seal (warned by the knight) the eternal life is no longer possible. Since Henry senior (Sean Connery) was clearly healed from his wounds he just becomes a normal healthy man walking out of the tomb. You are not under divine protection when you don’t follow the simple rules the movie stated. Thus they are both mortal again. Any subsequent injury could be fatal.
Go read a book.
One thing he didn't mention is that all these explosions seem to be gasoline/petrol based. Gas explosions tend to look bigger and scarier because of that immense fireball they create, but they really aren't that dangerous to structures. Explosions created by dynamite like in Django Unchained or demolition charges like in The Dark Knight don't create that fireball, and military carpet bombs like in Transformers DEFINITELY don't. Movies just use those sort of gasoline explosions because they look cooler and they're cheaper.
also explosions dosnt set things on fire lol ,buildings dont combust because of dynamite or c4 explosions ,its more of a shock based explosion than a petrol based one
I tried to burn some (25ml) diesel in a crucible as a disposal method since you're not allowed to pour it in the waste or down a drain and my car is petrol.
Bunsen burner blue flame on the top for 15 seconds did not ignite it.
Vodka ignites more easily.
I had to heat it underneath for 20 seconds or so until it started to fume, them heat the to which caught fire. Pulled the flame away and the diesel fire went out.
So added heat to the top again for another 10-15 seconds. Finally it was able to self sustain. I know it's because there oxygen supply wasn't good since it's in a small metal cup, but still surprising.
It did burn for about an hour though, which vodka does not.
Also unhappy that it left a thick black sludge to dispose of.
Currently planning on adding it to roofing tar.
@@markp8295 Drink it next time
Unless those are napalm..
Probably propane in most cases, and not really a detonation. Just a large accumulation of propane set on fire to create a huge fireball. From what I've seen of grenades, mines and such they produce no fireball at all. Gasoline would produce a thick black smoke almost immediately, and would probably be illegal due to the pollution factor.
The Dark Knight explosion was actually real though. The scene where the explosion stops and Joker starts to fiddle with the button, then he flinches as the explosions start up again, was actually improvised. Something went wrong with the explosion sequence so that's actually Heath Ledger flinching IRL at an exploding building that 20 ft away.
Just because it was a real explosion doesn't mean it was a realistic explosion. Real explosives do not produce giant fireballs like you see in movies. You have to add a bunch of, well, essentially fireworks to the mix.
@@MrRizeAG They add propane to the mix to allow for those effects. typically it's propane canons. In that case I think it was just canisters that were meant for the effect and wouldn't be lost in the building they demolished for the scene.
The expert never said the explosion was unrealistic, he just said that it would be extremely expensive and would require a lot of time
Urban myth. The second delayed explosion was even in the script and story board.
That whole scene was planned though. That theory has been debunked, they waited so everybody on set could move away since the explosion was gonna be real
Whenever I watch these videos about experts reviewing things, I think about how much I hate my high school councilor for not telling me things like I could work with explosives for a living.
He looks like an older Tom Holland.
More like Tom Holland AND Tobey Maguire

"I award no points and may got have mercy on your soul"
I was just quoting that scene the other day 🤣
Okay, A simple wrong would’ve done just fine....
@@suskabelle lol😂
video click bait he judgeing explosions not if the person would live the bomb was right
that one was bs it should've been a 4/10 at least
Bumblebee explosion with John Cena blowing up a door when Bumblebee got revived is probably gonna be 10/10. Dude’s arm was broken, both of the characters couldn’t breathe, were winded, took forever to get up, got bruised and scratched, etc., seemed to me the most realistic explosion in a movie.
Dude totally misses the fact that, in the Desperado scene, when Antonio Banderas drops the pair of grenades over the edge of the roof, the spoons never spring up or detach from the fuse.
*How many people out there can say that they're an Explosive Expert*
What a Badass title.
you would be suprised actually. There are a lot of people in this line of work. Construction business, mining, tunneling, law enforcement and military, materials testing, chemistry departments, gun ranges, movie and effect specialists, fireworks people, etc etc.
Ted Kaczynski could've
One day I want to be expert enough to be featured in one of these videos :)
Eh...I mean, I probably have more experience in explosives than this dude, and probably about the same understanding.
I'm pretty sure he's just a college student who will most likely drop out or change subject next year but they brought him in and called him an expert for purpose of the video.
The Joker didn't set those explosives, his men did. The same men who drove that bus away.
Yeah. He also mentioned that it would be expensive and Joker wouldnt be able to get the explosives. I guess he forgot that Joker robbed the bank at the beginning of the film...
Also a little confused on how Indiana Jones was rated 1 star when he praised it fairly well?
Juan I guess he was bothered enough about how unrealistic walking away from a nuclear bomb was that it overrode any realistic elements of the blast.
I think, he made the comments and someone else gave the ratings.
Tanmay Mehta this
That is the most rating a transformer movie has ever gotten 4.5.
I wanna know how realistic "Hurt Locker" explosions are.
The highest score was the one where the chickens exploded.

@@hieronymusnervig8712 As a guy that deals with chickens, I conclude this to be true.
So the comedies are more realistic.
No, they're funnier so they get a higher score. It didn't make much sense. At least in the comedies they acknowledge the ridiculousness of movie explosions.
Being comedies is the exact reason they're more realistic
No. Some Comedies are more realistic. There also realistic action movies. Those without explosions.
@@sackarsch6572 I'm saying they're more realistic precisely because of the point of those comedies is to point out how absurd explosions in hollywood movies are, that's what comedy is, pointing out the absurd.

Jacky The Jocker yes, but he stole 60 something million in the first 20 minutes. Remember the pencil scene?
Exactly ✌🏻
Joker had tonnes of corrupt people working for him as seen through out the movie. The movie never implies he personally put every charge in the hospital. Same is the case with the charges put in the ferries.
This is the only one that made me second guess as well. If anyone has those kind of resources, it's the Joker.

One of the best "how real is it" videos!
Cool video. Was hoping to see the demolition shape charge explosion in Heat, wonder how realistic that was.
Didn't Django blow out the natural gas lanterns and turn the knobs all the way up before the dynamite? Because that's what I thought caused the whole house to explode was the explosion travelling through the lines in the house.
69th like
He probably didn't see the movie and they probably didn't show him that part because that's what I said too
it would only explain the flames but not the explosion managing to demolish the whole building, but as he said he could have had more explosives hooked somewhere else...
A house filled with the right mix of natural gas and regular air can totally explode from the rapid combustion / expansion. Also, a flame cannot travel through a gas line because there's no oxygen in there.
Those lanterns aren't natural gas, they're oil or kerosene. You could get a fireball with kerosene, but there's nowhere near enough oil in those lamps to create such a large fireball.
Based on video games and stuff, I can conclude chickens explode.
Feces are actually explosive...
IEDs are primarily made from animal feces..aka fertilizers
Owen Leatham yay just like in csgo
CS:GO
I'm hoping you could do a review of explosions in tunnels, in movies, sometime. I've seen a lot of movies get this way wrong many times.
I was with some people (I've long since forgotten and lost track of) who liked to urban explore in the tunnels along the Mississippi river back in the 1980s.
One of the people had placed an explosive in a brick wall, hoping to widen the way around it.
Every one waited around a corner about 100 yards down the tunnel.
When the blast went off everyone instantly and involuntarily sat on the ground. Just all at once everyone's legs just went limp.
The shock wave traveling along the tunnel was enough to cause the involuntary sit on the ground response, that I've never seen any movie ever get right.
AMazing video!
I must admit I hate the old Blow something up, walk towards the camera slowly cliché on films. It got old rather fast and still shocked when I see it used in modern films.
if you look closely at 00:40 you can see theres still a guitar in that case lol
MrMelonMonkey lol didn’t even notice. Good eye
Rofl
the guitar is just a cover that hides the guns .
@@rockyrivera6397Ahh no, no it isn't.
The guitar is only there when they open the case the moment it cuts you can se that there is no guitar
Joker has a good amount of cash he stole and he has his crew who look like somewhat normal human beings.
Yes, true and the hospital was empty so they would not have to hide the dynamite (or whatever type of explosion stuff it probably was )
Indeed. His points didn't really talk about the explosion itself. But glad to hear that a superhero movie is realistic.
Also, after the Dark Knight Rises, I assumed that this was the prototype for the concrete laced with explosives and had been constructed with the explosives in place all along. Seems like the typical long playing game the Joke would run or at least try and hijack from the league of assassins.
cash and look like somewhat normal beings would not help you too much. Workers of that hospital would notice that you are not one of them and u instaling some strange stuff in hospital and that is not some public place where u can leave what ever u want(and you would need "good amount" of explosives to destroy whole building with explosives if u not instaling them inside walls or pillars that have holes drilled specialy for that and you need "good amount" of time to do that...).
@@Bialy_1 given this is Gotham, you're forgetting how easily bribable most of the people are. most of the police force can not even be trusted. he had the crew to do it, money to bribe for extra measure. factor in once again that most of the hospitals were already being evacuated. he only had to target the one hospital, and more than half the crew easily could have been on the payroll with no real affect to their conscience knowing they were also moving people OUT of the hospital, so they wouldn't feel too bad about it blowing up.
I never knew I was into explosions until now! 😍
This was the first one of these videos I really didn't like. Which is weird, it's always great hearing an expert explain stuff, and also.. explosions.

I think he dieded
Paul Tibbets died at age 92 recently
He died in the recent past.
about the only realistic depiction I can think of was in "sum of all fears", esp. regarding time delay between the flash and shock front arrival, in that hospital building.
@@LucidVision138 yes he dieded very deaded
man....who decided that the big explosion while the actor walks away in slow motion was cool? Seriously, let's get rid of that, forever...OK?
Cool guys dont look at explosions
Right? Everyone already knows how ridiculous that is, I think.
@@aaronpierce4443 they blow shit up, and they walk awayyy
Except Iron Man
It works nicely if you're outside the blast radius. But the way these movies show them as just absurd.
Need another one of these, with a 100% realistic explosion in one.
This was great. First time I was ever near an explosion (but not too near) was when we blew up a car on Hunter (which he probably would have given a 1). I was really surprised that it wasn't the flames or boom that got my real attention. It was feeling the pressure actually impact my chest. Never felt anything like it before.
Now have him analyze 9/11
Or investigate 3/11
It's been analyzed plenty. Problem is, people don't bother to fact check conspiracy theories.
@@nathanlevesque7812 jet fuel can't melt steel beams
@@nathanlevesque7812 because they are conspiracy theories lol
@@MrTeddy12397 And? The collapse was never pinned on 'melted steel beams'. Steel weakens severely at temps well below its melting point, which jet fuel can easily reach. Like I said: people can't be bothered to fact check conspiracy theories.
Was really hoping he'd have more to say on Dark Knight's scene since it used actual explosives on a real building
Favorite part of that scene was finding out there was an actual unexpected timing issue, and Heath the absolute mad lad played it off perfectly
Very cool! I really wanted to see Gus from Breaking Bad... Encore!
Ugh yes I needed this
MAN, forgetabout unrealistic explosions... my beef is sound effects... I seen a movie when a car peeled rubber while going through GRASS... or a car screeching it's tires on wet pavement... or dirt... come on man... !!!
or when movies use M249 sounds when it shows the person firing an M134 mingun >.>
It's called foley - and although sometimes rediculous it can really add to a scene - i think terminator is the best example sarah connor is running away from arnie, and you here her heels on the concrete floor but she isn;t wearing heels - it just adds to the tension in the scene.
Heh, you wanna try being in IT. Pretty much every single thing you have EVER seen on tv or in films that involves a computer is ridiculous.
Your beef is sound effects!? Where do you buy that? Is it vegan?

I hate when someone is obviously being stealthy and someone dubs in loud footstep noises. The dub guys see footsteps, they dub crunchy footstep noises even if it's ninja walking on a rubber mattress.
4:57 you can see the effects over Megan Fox's body lmao
Wow this is bad bad
True lol
Bet they were hoping the titties would distract
As soon as I saw his reaction to the grenade explosion I was on board, having grown up on Hollywood SFX I was disappointed at how underwhelming a real grenade detonation is, it's more like a puff of smoke, a shed load of flying metal followed by a low key bang.
Honestly that scene in the other guys was so perfect lmao. Calls out all the other movies for having such ridiculous explosions

close.

she did terrible.
A bank robber tries gta heist look it up
Criminal react to Gta is already out there, search it up
I've seen an article about real yakuza members reacting to the game Yakuza 3 so now we need a gta version of that.

@@monke6774 That isn't how radiation works. You can't just wash it off.
Disliked video because of this.
He's a nice guy. But as an expert he should know, the "dynamite" in "Django Unchained" must have been blackpowder. Dynamite wasn't invented until after the civil war.
It still doesn't change the fact that he is right though.
@@madfreddie3233
An expert should get the basics right, shouldn't he?
@@holdencaufield7485 Well the video is about the explosion not what's inside the dynamite.
@@Lucivius27 Uh... just FYI Dynamite isn't a generic term. So, as you say "what's in the dynamite" doesn't change. Dynamite is made of nitroglycerin, sorbents (such as powdered shells or clay) and stabilizers and was a more powerful alternative to black powder. Therefore, one can't fill a stick with black powder and call it dynamite.
Maybe he saw just this scene and not the whole movie. He doesn't know the timeline
One of my summer jobs in college was in the White Horse Zinc mine in North west NJ. At 19, I was a "drill runner" I got to work with a lot of explosive materiel and associated fuses, electric and burning. They were loud. They were dangerous. In spite of safety rules and about 8 minutes of training, I experienced unexpected blast waves that knocked y helmet of my head and just scared the crap out of me. No fragmentation but you don't need tat to absolutely crush granite.
Why didn't he review Hurt Locker??
I miss that one... how not action movies deal with explosions
@@dandalo ikr, and Jeremy Renner is so good in that movie
BleizIt Channel because it's accurate. But I don't really know there are probably some faults somewhere in the movie.
I was really expecting them to
KYXER The Hurt Locker did have some of the most realistic explosions in Hollywood. However, it is also laughably inaccurate in terms of how it portrays the activities of EOD personnel and military operations in Iraq in general.
Dang, I wish he'd talked about the explosion from the first scene in 'Children of Men'. I don't know if it's "more realistic", but there are no flames or flying people...just a sudden, deafening sound with a intense shock-wave and horrible destruction.
That's quite realistic if we're talking about an IED or a frag grenade
Not only an incredible film but very realistic scenes
So the most realistic ones were comedies. Interesting
One clip is just mr Torgue yellingn"THAT WAS F-*Bleep* AWESOME WOO WOO WOO!"
