The proton packs were one of the coolest sci-fi ideas to come along in a long time! “Bravo!!” to whoever came up with the idea… and the special effects people who made them look very real.
I heard the reason for crossing the streams being dangerous is that the Streams fire at slightly different frequencies and thus the colliding Protons could create anti-protons (this wouldnt happen if the streams are at the same frequency, this would apparently only let the colliding Protons bounce off), and the explosion that destroyed the Gate and the Marshmallow Man in the first movie was basically caused by the Anti-Protons colliding with normal Protons and this Matter-Antimatter Annihalation caused this huge ammount of energy in a form of an explosion.
Great video! We have a proton pack and love it to bits and take it to various events. Wanted one ever since 1984! (Let’s not talk about the 2016 movie shall we? Dismal beyond words and incredibly unfunny)
A "Proton Pack" I think could be built, however it would at lease four to around nine years to complete! Just making an judgement of a possibly. If we continue too develop, different technologies of the future, like devices in the scientific world than it is a possibly to me!
When anyone says to me, "There's no SCIENCE in Ghostbusters! They're catching ghosts!" I will link them to this video. (Theoretical, sure, but still...)
In my option crossing the streams itself doesn’t ruin your day but the energy exchange does Since we are dealing with positive and negative charges think of ghosts and proton streams as magnetic charges ghosts will naturally attract the proton stream and be ensnared in it because opposite charges attract And there may be unspecified tech involved to help keep the stream wrapped around a ghost that unintentionally causes the streams to combine That’s why egon chooses to tell the guys about that in the ballroom, because now it’s actually a potential problem given they all are blasting the same target. He may have forget about it but he remembered to warn them at the right time in the end With that science roughly settled we now have up to 4 highly particle streams of the same polarity combining because of programming with the pack and the insanely high charge of the streams causes an ever increasing volatile energy build up That energy build up will then catastrophically release in a violent explosion capable of destroying entire worlds and all life at a cellular level through unspecified science So in short crossing the streams isn’t the problem but rather through unknown science and tech it’s the charge of the streams and magnetic science that are the problem
Did you say the ghosts are captured and contained in the proton pack?!?! You lost me. You are not a fan!! Also they didn't cross the streams in the video game you are showing them using the slime gun
I love how both the DeLorean time machine and the proton packs look like they were built in a garage or workshop...both are very raw designs.
Even big companies do this. Look up any high performance car with mule in the search. Exotic car mules look just like that. LOL
Check out our video about the Proton Pack to see our fictional connection between Doc Brown's DeLorean and the Ghostbusters Proton Pack. :-)
@@GhostbustersNW I saw that and I loved it. I wouldn't mind seeing more Ghostbusters crossovers with other similar fandoms and themes.
Technically, they were built in a garage from various (real world) found parts.

Who else just cranks their sound system to 11 when Pheobe Spengler first boots up that rebuilt Proton Pack? Aural bliss
As one of the crazy people that have built, bought, and modified proton pack props, I thoroughly loved this segment!

The Proton Pack is known as The Proton Blaster, The Particle Thrower, The Particle Gun, or Particle Wand.
Damn I thought that was Egon's grandSON. But I am alone thinking that the sound of the pack's stream is one of the coolest sound effects in cinema?

Awesome video as a Huge fan of Ghostbusters!! I hope for a video of Marvels Scorpion and Araknis by Ortiz Brothers
Yes great content again!!! Keep the videos coming. I appreciate them.
The Ramis board was obviously named after Harold Ramis who played egon
Marvellous video as always many thanks!😎👍
Great video on the Proton Packs. :)
I loved all these past films!
Stopped what i was doing when i saw the video title and pressed play
CERN has the world's largest proton pack 😂
Back in the day maybe making a real proton pack wasn't possible but with new technology coming out i say its very possible and little scary
Aye yo feeling like a big kid again watching this ; the memories
To the people who know of the Ghostbusters and Transformers crossovers, Ernie Hammer was in Transformers Prime
I could watch that!
Ernie...Hudson.
@@maxcooper6554 spank you very much
Very cool video.

AGREED!!!👍🏽
Voting on every Wesen from Grimm, so many that shaped up human history in different ways

Words Of Advice:
DON'T CROSS THE STREAMS!
😛
It would be 'bad'.
Thanks for that explanation of 'portable', not 'cyclotron'. :-D

2016? Nope, don't recall any Ghostbusters movie in 2016.
Me either. I just recall a bunch of unfunny ladies trying to capture ghosts stupidly.
When I was watching this video right next to it was the movie Stripes 💀💀
love Phoebe
Bill Murray and McKenna Grace .. comment on putting the Proton Pack❓ It's Really Heavy👧🏻👨🏻⁉️

I had the trap and the pack. Word.
Would proton packs be protected by the 2nd amendment?
Just make sure not to "CROSS THE STREAMS"!

Them options, tho...
Deadly?
Fictional??? Nooooo they can be made and work but certain components need to be replaced

Artificial narrators prounounce things so funny.
