Hi
Idiotic
Lovely vid matt.
A tank shooting a 55 gallon drum of ooblek is something I'd very much love to see.
same
I agree dude I wish the had a 88 mm or a pak 40 to shoot it with
good idea, but a 55 gal drum isn't big enough. Im thinking a residential above ground LNG tank.
Maybe the govt is still selling off some of fpsrussia's arsenal
Also put a explosive inside of one and see what happens from the inside with a explosion!?
Matt: “Spitballing ideas, shoot oobleck with a tank. Good idea? Let me know your thoughts.”
Demolitia: “Is that a question?”
Incendiary!
OOBLECK VS TANK? HMMMM
YEAH, DO IT! ! ! ! :)
OnLy question is why didn’t we try that sooner brother
I would try the same rounds on the barrels of oobleck to see if there's a difference, and then to finish it off, hit it with the tank round.
Of course it is. And the answer is HELL YES!!!!!!
I would've suggested testing a control group (water-filled containers) as a basis for comparison. Then you could play with different mixtures of oobleck to see if a thicker consistency makes a difference in its bullet stopping ability.
Came here to suggest the same
The opening skits are worth tuning in for. They keep getting better.
The best one is where they have an intervention and his buddy comes in with one and says what you said we were giving him an intervention 😂
What i’ve learned from this channel: if you strap enough of it onto you, anything could be body armor
ikr 😆
@H I K A M A R U 🅾️
another stupid bot
literally every time i watch the body armor vids
That’s so true
It would be good to see if a 50cal makes it through a large drum of it instead of the many small cases
When I made my own oobleck, I made it much thicker. It was easy to roll in your hand, yet after just a second, it melted. You should try it with thicker oobleck. As thick as possible, if trying to stop bullets
I agree, a bit “watery”
Probably was the easiest way to fill up the small jugs with it a bit more fluid though
Last time I used home made oobleck you were concieved, my son.
How do you make the oobleck thicker
@@zeph6768 dont put as much water in it when making it, or use more cornstarch if its too runny
Typical is 1 part water to 2 parts corn starch.
When the bucket thing did a flip on the 357 shot I’m very confident that was a result of the bullet spinning when impacting and entering the ooblek the spin of the bullet was basically trying to churn the ooblek but it reacted as a solid for a very split second making the ooblek absorb some of the spinning momentum out of the bullet and transfer it in the way you see it in the vid. It would be interesting to see the ooblek in super slowmo with clear containers
i would say it was a shockwave effect where the energy of the bullet caused the fluid in the radius to solidify causing a transfer of momentum to the bucket itself, which is why it flew off so violently.
As a goalie, I've seen some goalie gear with this same consept, when you move it's soft, and flexible, but when the puck hits you, it becomes stiff, and hard
i can say the same thing about ME HAHA
Yeah this guy is telling the truth except no need for the puck for this concept to work. Just hand.
This Ooblek was a lot thinner than the stuff I made with my kids back in the day. I think if it was thicker it would react more as a solid, yet would still be liquid.
Yea they put too much water, I was thinking the same.
I hear keeping it cold ruins it aswell
Yeah they way over did the water cause it would not splash like that
It did look a little on the thin side. Although it didn't splash when he was punching it so at least some of the properties are there...
Yeah I agree
I love how Matt brings up the tank idea knowing full well that he doesn't even have to ask if we want to see that XD
For real, I'm sure at this point he's like, "if i wanna blow it up or shoot at it, I'm sure they wanna see"
That's his way of justifying doing it to Mere lol he blames it on "us" 😂
@@Ks_HandymanAndLawnMaintenance for real lol. That little fucker probably already rented the tank XD
@@tylerfitts8194 Ofcourse, I'd bet he filmed it the day later, and we're probably seeing this a week later after that. It's a good way to hype a video you're doing/done regardless.
@@saladin7467 I didn't think about that man. I'm honored by such sage advice, from the terror of the east himself no less.
I agree on the tank shooting a 55 gallon drum. Love the intros Matt and never miss a show. You rock! My personal favorite is that 500 magnum you got. What a beauty!
Think Matt is having more fun trying to splash than anything. Gr8 episode !
Also, As a chef (food scientist) that uses "slurry" (cornstarch and water, essentially oobleck) to thicken soups and stews occasionally, I've played with my fair share. I think your ratio of liquid to cornstarch should be lowered. If you do mostly starch less liquid it'll be even more effective and less runny.
As some dude that just wanted to play with oobleck, these were my thoughts as well
As one who did this once as a child, i absolutely agree. the later stuff was much better, but the bowl was not kosher. It must keep its shape as you pick it up, then turn to liquid..
Partly you want it to solidify at the right pressure, a weak one might well be better for this. It'd be nice to try some different thicknesses first
My thoughts exactly, it's to wet, punching oobleck shouldn't even leave residue on the hand
@forrestholmun64 it's ok, I do the same thing and people get all confused or take offense 😆
“When I start going fast, it gets hard” what a fantastic sentence, couldn’t have said it better myself Matt 👍

It would have been cool to fire the same rounds at the same jugs filled with water to see how it compared.

I thought the same thing.
It’s going through
Thank you, Matt, for answering a question I had since Jr. High 15 years ago.
I love watching your channel bro always brings me some happiness.
It really doesn’t matter what you aim at, the answer to “shoot it with a tank” is always yes.

Yeah, it's far too watery.
Too watery but dude don't define yourself as a professional ooblecker
Agreed, too watery. But he did end up with the same desired effect, just not as dense
True
@@itsmebutwhoami8177 Let the man be a professional ooblecker
Definitely going through all of them
Much fun. Good to see science at work.
“This is America” Is it just me, are the quality of Matt’s intros starting to reach cinema level quality?
He hired an actual production team.
Matt's are good, but not on par with Garande thumb yet. That guy is insane with his intros
Yes
The intros are getting worse and worse.
Yeah, I think so. He's definitely got a new camera and is using VFX for the gunshots (I love VFX they're so cool)
I dont know how many people have noticed, but the change to a mirrorless camera with a nice lens has really given the channel that bump in quality. Looks great, Matt!
yea it looks really good.
This is true. But the over the shoulder shots, are never in focus. That is the only thing left to fix.
Production values have gone way up.
Happened right around the time he started doing collabs with flannel daddy.
🤔
Mirrorless camera?
Definitely need to do that!!!!
lol I think this is my favorite intro. the mini bike was a hilarious touch
Needs to be a more starch heavy consistency. That’s a bit too liquidy
Came here to say the same thing.
Yeah seemed way too runny
I thought so
Great intro. "What the... where was that!?" That line killed me 😅 Matt is like a videogame character who just has several giant guns concealed on his body and can just pull out of thin air at will.
They were hidden in his prison wallet
wait Matt is not a video game character i have been lied to my entire life
My friend made ooblek, I tried it and it was fun, we placed catch with a ball of it.
Yes with the tank idea
"This is America !"
I think this was the best intro.
Let's go Brandon!
That’s the last sentence in the intro…couldn’t make it out?
I didn't realize it during the most recent videos, but I love that Matt's now using a gimbal and better camera 💯
Very high quality now 👌
still no 2160 :(
He’s been hanging out with Garand Thumb lately😂
He took some notes from garand thumb
The oobleck spill from the .45 slug made a heart shape on the ground lol
hey matt. Im new to demo ranch but im hooked. U should totally do the oobleck drum and tank.
Hey matt, love your videos!
Oobleck is a non Newtonian fluid, of course you would know since youre a scientist ;) however the best results ive ever read about came from a combination of kevlar and something similar to oobleck. the oobleck hardens on impact, reinforcing the kevlar, meaning thinner kevlar can stop hotter rounds in theory. i would LOVE to see you take some old kevlar, soak it in oobleck somehow and test it to see if it improves the armor at all!
I actually like the idea, hopefully he does more with oobleck
I’m actually curious
That is an Ingenious idea!
Just came here to say the same thing.
This guy is obviously trolling for some weird fetish film.
matt literally anything involving you and a tank i want to see
I have never heard of this stuff before, nor do I have as much experience with 50s as you do, but I’m still rooting for the 50 going through
Gotta love those shear rate dependent viscosities!
"When I go really fast on it, it starts getting hard"

I was waiting for this comment 😂
Came here to comment the same thing, left with a like
I’m just going to say it
That’s what she said
"Your mom tied better knots than this last night "
Damn man. You didn't have to do him dirty like that 😭😭😭😭
who's "him" did you refer to btw
I think it's a good idea. About the tank and the barrel.
Just want to say, thank you for making fire arms fun again. To many channels do pitiful or worse religious commentary. Even my wife loved this episode and kinetic sand and asked if you were Mythbusters with guns. So quite the high honor of praise. Thank you and yes I would love to see a 55 gl drum vs a tank. That would be awesomeness on rye bread!
That’s what most people love about Matt and his brother. Both of them skip the commentary and get straight into the action albeit with some comedy in the middle.
Let's take a moment to appreciate Matt's new camera... Noticed the higher framerate, more accurate colors, and focused depth of field right away!
Yes! It was the first thing I noticed! From the beginning of his channel to now, this is a huge thing in my opinion!
i agree
What's funny is tbh out of everything, is is not only the first thing I noticed, but also one of my favorite parts of the whole video...... Again tbh it might actually be tied with my favorite part lolol
Btw my favorite part was (And this shouldn't be a shocking thing.) when the 50. Came out and not only did the 50, come out (Because we all knew it was going to come out at some point) but that when Matt guessed it wasn't going to make it out of the 10th one and not only was he right, but it actually didn't even MAKE IT to the 10th one! Like when he said the 10th one I actually agreed with him (And what's funny about that to me is that I don't normally agree with his guesses. But in this one I actually agreed with 3 of his guesses. So that pretty much NEVER happens to me. But that's just me and it made the video just that little bit more enjoyable haha 😆 :) 🤯 ) so I actually really really enjoyed that part lol
So if I'm saying the fact that it's not just the first thing I noticed, but also that I enjoyed it just as much as him shooting the 50. at Ooblek and my guesses were the same as his. That really says a LOT about how much I like the new camera! Lololol 😅😆😂
Yes it was great except for when he shot the .50 BMG it blurred out the Oobleck/target so you can’t see it explode when shot. For long shots he should stick to the old one.
Didn't notice a thing. Oh wait, my desktop is 11 years old. My monitor, maybe 6 years. It looks good enough for me! :) AMD FX(tm)-8320 Eight-Core Processor 3.51 GHz. 1920 x 1080. Yeah, I'm old and don't care. LMAO!! Ha! Ha!
If you make it a bit less liquidy, it actually hardens a lot more when getting hit by fast moving objects. I saw a video on youtibe when someone trew a toilet at a pool full of oobleck from like 10 meters high and the toilet literally broke, so it could definetly work as a body armor.
I was just thinking the same thing. He needs a little bit more corn starch.
That nine is always so dope. It looks like a space gun.
i really like the camera work on this one
FYI, there is a company that developed a non-newtonian material called D30 which is used in all sorts of sports protective gear, and even cellphone cases. They've figured out a way for oobleck to retain a molded shape and not flow or melt down like liquid. I would be curious how many D30 protective pads it would take to stop a bullet. Does D30 have more or less stopping power than homemade cornstarch oobleck?
wow, i actually didn't know this. thanks for telling
I have armor in my motorcycle gear made of D30, as well as insoles for my skate shoes. The stuff works great for landing after a high jump, as it takes a lot of the force and keeps it from transferring up to my knees. Haven’t had a crash yet on my bike to test my armored jacket…but I’ve heard it works great to prevent what would be serious or life threatening injuries.
@@westabon420 Hopefully. Wrecking mine sucked😂
What's the brand name?
D30 is a must have for me in motorcycle gear. The shit is incredible.
One larger container where the fluid has room to move and do it’s thing. Also hollow-points! Also buck shot! Super interesting stuff, thanks for doing this.
I'd love to see some combination testing, a block of oobleck wrapped in kevlar.
Best intro ever, just like all of demo ramches
Matt is smart and plans out most of his videos well in advance. I'm sure when he was out shooting the tanks at the armored Suburban he already shot the 55 gallon drum at the same time.
The question now is this: What else did he shoot with the tank at the same time? Just shooting a drum will only take up a small part of a larger video.
Maybe he put a grenade in a big bowl of oobleck? O.o Or he tested some C4 vs Oobleck?
If not I hope this is an input for future videos... ;p
No, the question is what DIDN"T he shoot with the tank while he had the opportunity.
He's probably withholding the head to tail SUV tank shot to put in that video.
This idea is worth revisiting, but with some more hi-tech non-newtonian fluids. The stuff that's been researched for military/LE use is silica nanoparticles with kevlar fibers. The youtube science channel Tech Ingredients has recently done some work with nanoparticle suspensions, they could probably cobble some up for you.
Dude I don't just like this idea, but I LOVE it.
But also I think a big appeal to this video is that pretty much ANYONE could make a bunch of Ooblek just in their kitchen in under an hour and basically do the same thing lol
But I agree, I would absolutely love to see him do a video doing your idea! :D
There's a mushroom for it certainly. We just gotta find it.
@@Shiznittlebizbampop1 Thanks to the internet, it's more doable for average people than you think. Almost every ingredient can be bought from Amazon.
@@Nuovoswiss after seeing your comment in my notifications I went to look and good and you're totally right. Not too cheap (at least not as cheap as cornstarch and water lol) but still VERY doable!

Matt is the forerunner of the personal shield in dune lore, where projectiles must penetrate slowly to avoid activating kinetic protection.
You stole my statement dude! 🙃

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. A bit of KY helps too.
@@eggbert191 link
I love Matt’s little back up energy when he starts shooting the idea of a tank and ooblek. He already knows we wanna see it
16:03 It's actually pretty cool, how you can see that stuff on the slow mo shatter like a solid and seconds later start running like a liquid.
I was just thinking if oobleck could be put into a Kevlar plate. Im not surprised you already have a video on it 🤣🤟
I remember seeing something about fine fabrics such as Kevlar being up to 8x more ballistically resistant when submerged in these types of non-newtonian liquids. They are called Viscoelastic liquids and if I recall correctly some do just what oobleck does but at a much greater degree, so it can probably be applied to some pretty effective personal and vehicle composites.
there was some non newtonian ferrofluid that was making all kinds of waves back in the early 2000s or so as a potential body armor. it was around the same time that dragon scale was being hyped up. dont think it went anywhere though or we would have seen production examples by now.
the problem always seems to be you just need too much of it. yeah a non newtonian can stop a bullet but to do it you will have exponentially more bulk and weight than ceramic or even steel
@@crazysilly2914 lol your crazy
IIRC, it only went into use in the production of trauma pads, not mainline armor.
could be a cool sandbag filler idk if it would be better or worse tho
@@GarlicSoda not really. you would need a bag that cant leak and has to be sealed up as opposed to the burlap or woven polymer that can just be loosely closed.
and the moment it gets punctured it will start to leak and will have to be replaced as opposed to being just fine.
also would likely be worse at stopping rounds than actual sand or dirt. i doubt that you would need 4 feet of sandbag to stop a sub sonic 300blk
Get the barrel and shoot smaller cal rounds into the open top it before hitting it with the tank. I think watching the surface reacting in slowmo would be really interesting. At what point does the oobleck start shattering?
I’ve shot into a cup with oobleck and splashes out in small chunks
@@Davie272 Yeah, but what happens with a .50 hits a 3 foot deep barrel? This are the questions that need answers. For science

You always store the Barrett in your prison wallet.
I think that was the Serbu BFG-50A, it has an opening at the front of the barrel shroud unlike the Barrets, you can see the reflection if you pause at 0:45. I guess the charging sound was edited in.
Also, the bipod is farther from the end of the shroud on the Barretts.
Hi , hello, you need to pour a couple of large bags with a diameter of 1 m and see if it breaks through. the resistance of the liquid in the total mass when receiving damage will be different
Happiest I've ever seen you, bring some of that play-dough home lol
That subsonic round was the best combination of speed, and shape of the round. The .50 bmg made it further (barely) by just brute force.
Yes I would love to see the tank against a 55gal barrel of ooblek
This was really cool to watch, I thought the .50 cal was just going to blow through them all. One thing I was thinking about the whole time though, was that it would have to been interesting to see a side by side with water done to see if the Oobleck would do better than just water alone.
That’s what I’m sayin
I was thinking the same thing lol. I am also not a scientist like Matt is, so...
its not even close. with water, a regular handgun round will go thru about 4 gallon jugs x 8" each, or +-26-34", depending. This ooblek stopped a .357 in less than 5" and a 12 ga. slug on less than 3". Amazing!
@@perseusrex614 apples and oranges. The ooblek is in super hard ice pack containers. That plastic is REALLY hard. You can't compare this with videos you've seen of bullets being shot at VERY thin, soft, and weak gallon jugs. A .22 LR would rip through a dozen empty gallon jugs, but wouldn't go very far in these. A gallon jug is about 7 inches across, and those are about half that. So for every 7", the bullet has to go through 2x as many walls, that are 10x thicker, and are 3x as strong.
@@xenonram the plastic is a factor but if you are telling me that a .357 out of a rifle would stop in 2 of those filled with water, then I cant help you
I'm on board with the 55 gallon drum of oobleck vs the tank
My daughter used to make this stuff to play with.
Yes I'd love to see the tank shooting that stuff
This was hilarious. I met oobleck when I was 12 years old. I was way too young to be getting stoned or drunk. And it really tripped me out. Now I understand. Bring on the tank.
In all honesty, ooblek in the "armor scenario" would possibly be best used in bomb squad suits, armor for rapid concussive force. But idk 🤷♂️
You can't compress a liquid.
@@dick8997 There is an exception. If you get a water bed and put your mother on it, it will compress.
@@dick8997 All liquids are compressible, just to such a small extent we call them incompressible. This is also just describing normal fluids, when you start working with supper critical fluids, the distinction between liquids and gases break down and allow for highly compressible fluids.

@@dick8997 That's why it's called a "Non-Newtonian " solid :)) It only slightly resembles a liquid, but it's not a liquid !!

Was just thinking that
It might fall short of the "causes a nuclear explosion if hit by a laser" part, though.
Well, that is intro material...
@@michaelschumacher597 Are you sure, did you do the science? ;D
Just did some reading, researchers have been experimenting with liquid, non-newtonian armor with promising results, but they're incorporating it into kevlar. Studies showed 4 layers of kevlar soaked in shear thickening fluid (Oobleck is one example) performed as well as 10 layers of kevlar without the STF. Not sure you could replicate their results with cornstarch, I'm willing to bet they're using a much more advanced STF, but it could be an interesting follow up experiment.
poland.
My idea was to suspend some kind of media inside of STF. Like maybe AR500 pellets or bb's, get a thick enough STF and suspend a lot of them in it. And when you shoot it, hopefully it would transfer the force to STF much better, while also providing more protection against slow moving rounds.
I think the main advantage would be having flexible armor that's good against higher powered rifles, as opposed to the plates which greatly inhibit movement.
@@lazar2175 That's a really interesting idea. More experimenting to do with grain size, perhaps steel sand would work well and turn into something akin to concrete when hit. Not sure Matt's about to dive into the deep science though, maybe taofledermaus would be up for the challenge?
I was wondering about this, thanks!
Do it again with sealed containers. I bet the extra pressure would have a solidifying effect on the oobleck!
If the ooblec is pressure sealed it performs better as the wave can’t exit through the big holes so pressure seal the ooblec
Gonna keep requesting a collaboration video with Destin from Smarter every day where they shoot a 50bmg with a 50bmg in flight and catch it on slow mo. Bonus if they can get the slow mo guys in on it.

Oobleck must be like the personal shields in “Dune.” Why does Matt like “a big bulge in the back?”
The slow blade passes the shield, right?
@@P3x310 Exactly.
Rescale how you think about modern life. A personal shield today isn't necessarily about worn body armor. This looks like less than ideal armor, indeed. For a human. But I see this as a very slick hillbilly upgrade to vehicles. Image these oobleck vessels, 3d printed to fit, set in layers between body panels on cars. So that there's multiple layers&0wiggle. I image a soft plastic or silicone, that can self seal a little would be ideal.
Dat ass
@@arbhall7572 Non-newtonian fluids are being very heavily researched for body armor. Not oobleck, but fluids that become even harder with less speed. Think of a level 2 plate with a non-Newtonian fluid sack behind. The sack wouldn't protect against handguns at all, which is what the plate is for. Anything super high velocity will be stopped dead by the non-newtonian fluid sack behind.
I think you need to shoot the same containers full of water, so that we can see the difference.
Would be the same results I'd reckon.
I think that the stretch armstrong filling is a better candidate since its already been demonstrated to stop small arms at a nearly 3a level. I think that aramid layers sandwhiching offset hex cell layers of the filling would be a pretty good vest. It would be pretty heavy, but it would be more absorptive of the kinetic energy of impacts.
Mat just really having fun playing with it.
BTW, what do the rounds look like. maybe you should shoot it in a Giant tank full of that stuff and compare the bullets... if you can find them.
I wonder how an arrow or crossbow bolt would have done since it's travelling so much slower but still has a ton of kinetic energy behind a relatively small cross-sectional area.
Big boom in one word mate
I bet it would work better than the guns.

The smaller the point is the better chance it has of going through basically the surface area of a fist versus a knife a knife will glide through easier then a fist given the same force because less surface are for the liquid to harden and slow it down.
no freaking way, he did it... he made a sponsor clip that I actually wanted to watch.
You should do with one big container because it probably had a delay to stiffen up so if it’s hardens then all of it will
