This is one of the best, if not THE best, episode of SciShow. The science is fascinating, the banter rolls off naturally, and Hank's presentation is sublime with his trademark snark. A masterpiece of an episode.
Absolutely, I saved it and have watched it hundreds of times, anytime I need a giggle. Hank killed this one, out of the park, in the hoke, just nailed it hank thank you my friend.
I come back to this video at least twice a year cause Hank talking about dangerous stuff is just the absolute best. I think this is the 16th viewing for me
You would be even more terrified if you were informed that they were right now suffering in some of the hells mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam (very authentic Vedic scripture). Read canto 5, chapter 26. There is nothing to be proud of.
Scientist 1: "So, we just discovered this chemical we're calling "Azidoazide azide", and it's startlingly reacti-" *BOOM.* Scientist 2: "What was that?" Scientist 1: "Er, I think our sample of Azidoazide azide in the safe room with no lights just exploded." Scientist 2: "...I thought you were kidding when you said it was startlingly reacti-" *BOOM!* Scientist 1: "OH NOW YOU'RE JUST TROLLING U-" *BOOM!* Scientist 1: "I was asking for that last one."
What keeps me up at night is that... how toxic it is when inhaled. So... "described as" is more like "uttered by a dying man". Now Im wondering how that being overcome by the elements would look like.
What keeps me up at night is that scientists tested all these toxic chemicals on animals. They test any toxic chemical they can find on them. I think about it all day everyday... I hate them with all my heart.. alternative is instead of testing the chemicals, including medicine, on animals, pour it down the drain.
Fluoroantimonic Acid: okay take some proton Fluorine: i said electron. Okay but take some proton first I dont want proton. you have to take proton, i gonna kill u if u dont.
this honestly looks like the most fun you've ever had talking about something on scishow, this was just hilarious watching you talk about how crazy these chemicals are! best episode to date imo :D
CPLCraft I just find it funny because it IS some crazy sh**, it's preaty much the reason why so many ppl like to experiment with Termite even when they are not pyromaniacs os psychopaths , crazy chemical/physical reactions are awesome to see, even at a distance.
...nada ‘delightful’ about that and not even true! True chemical smeIIs are nowhere near as harrible as the most harrible smeIIs ever, such as the ones by wom’n and other hum’ns...
And, the smeII of hum’n _ces and 💨 is one of the most harrible ever, both in smeII and in lingering and traveling power - this _ once jhat in one of the bathrooms at one of the flats where I used to live and it s_nk up the whole flat and I literally had to run out while screaming at them to open the windows, and I was stuck on the balcony for over half an hour until that _nk was over!
I am scarred for life because I was shbjected to such harrible smeIIs that I know contain particles from the _ or _ of hum’ns (humticles) that actually get inside the nose in order to be able to smeII it, so I can’t even stand that thought - and I’d rather smeII any of those chemicaIs instead (since chemicaIs are pure) than to have humticles ferced on my nose...
This was the first SciShow video I ever saw. Hank's almost-manic delivery and playful humor made this episode an instant classic for me. It's the episode I love sharing with folks new to SciShow to help get them hooked on the it way I was when I watched this so many years ago.
9:42 Cave Johnson: We haven't entirely nailed down what element it is yet, but I'll tell you this, it's a lively one, and it does not like the human skeleton.
GIRGHGH Aka Girg I see. You do realize this was not my quote, but a quote from a fictional character you are disputing right? Additionally, to put it in context, he was speaking about a fictional experimental compound known as repulsion gel, and was saying, that his scientists weren't sure what element that was in it, but it was very very bad.
JerseyNick This is my favorite episode. I learned a lot from it, but Hank's sense of humor is great too. This was so hilarious that I often come back to re-watch it.
He has a weird meter and flow to his sentences, and likes to say words short and quickly with a longer pause between them, which makes him slightly more difficult to listen to. He doesn't do it as much these days so I guess he's tried to change it recently.
Yeah, oxidation is a strange relic of a name. Chemists used to believe oxygen was THE oxidizer, until they realized _why_ oxygen works the way it does(it loves to steal electrons), and so they learned there were other compounds that could be used to 'steal' electrons as well, but they still kept calling it "Oxidation". I propose we start calling it "Electrokleption", literally "electron stealing".
+Bone-Tone Lord It is also hypergolic with such things as cloth, wood, and test engineers, not to mention asbestos, sand, and water-with which it reacts explosively.
When I was in high school this was my favorite sci show vid. Now I have a degree in chemistry and can indeed say that “More dangerous than Florine gas” is not a sentence that you get to say almost ever.
@@kingjames4886 What I mean is that this old, 2014 SciShow presentation has stood the test of time. It's one of my favorites to share with folks who aren't familiar with the channel's mission of communicating science in a way that laypersons can understand easily. It's also heck-a funny; Hank is at top manic in this one and I love it to pieces.
I think I saw this episode about when it came out and it's still to this day one of the best thing on the Internet. Packed with information mixed with genius level comedy.
It is 2023. I have been coming back to this video time and again for nearly a decade and it's still one of the best videos on the entire internet. Also, LOVE to see scishow make an update video or maybe "5 more absolutely redoculous chemicals that can kill you in increasingly interesting ways" Because Hank making videos where he Jovially describes absolutely insanely dangerous chemicals is just the kind of vibes more people need in their lives.
test 101 so you go onto a video from ages ago, which had nothing to do with politics, and blame _something_ on liberals? Nobody even knows what you’re trying to blame them for. Nobody even cares. We’re just tired of people doing this kind of thing
If you think this is funny, you should read the articles he got most of the lines from blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/2013/05/08/things_i_wont_work_with_dimethylcadmium
@@MrJesterblack I love scishow, but I feel like this entire video was paraphrased from Derek Lowe's 'things I won't work with' blog. I definitely feel I've read some of the exact phrases from this video in his articles.
Somewhere, deep within the Earth's crust, there is a chunk of this stuff. And if us humans mention it's name too many times...Well, let's just say all life on Earth is gonna have a really, really bad day.
Nilered made thioacetone in a recent video, and he said that up close, it didn't smell terrible, but the farther from the source that you got, the more potent the odor became
it's the ppm that matters. a lot of extremely terrible scents don't smell like anything up close because the ppm is so high that your senses can't register anything up close, but once the ppm gets low enough (aka further away from the source) you start to be able to detect the scent again. it's interesting how that works.
Except you can hit it with a hammer and it doesn't actually explode. It's not that it was super sensitive. It's that they didn't have the equipment required to test sensitivity.
What I learnt today: 1. Chlorine triflouride: *THE CONCRETE IS ON FIRE* 2. Nitrogen big gae 3. Dimethyl cadmium: Xbox Live chat 2010 4. Thioacetone: My dad's socks. 5. Fluoroantimonic acid: *psst kid.....want some proton? 5. Teflon: "I'm about to end this SbHF6 's entire career."
the AA molecule is just hilarious... I don't know why but the idea that nothing could happen and it just explodes, just because. It's the ultimate example of Moore's law.. everything you do can and will get you killed... including nothing.
adam Moore's law? The one that says that the number of transistors on a computer chip will double every roughly two years? I think you meant Murphy's law, which your comment may be an example of. ;)
Although from a physics perspective it wasn't nothing that caused it to explode. It gets into statistical thermodynamics to explain further but there was something happening that caused the explosion. Just not any type of external force. The energy that caused the explosion would have already been in the system. They could have likely prevented the explosion by storing it at a cooler temperature.
This is my FAVORITE SciShow episode ever. I like the part when he is describing Azidoazide Azide. "I think somebody said something mean about it somewhere, and it was like !&%*@!"
That burn was worse than dropping chloring trifluoride Your habits are more toxic than dimethyl cadmium You eat through a buffet like fluoroantimonic acid eats through a human body (and everything else)
Acid so strong it eats through glass. That itself scares me since usually glass is the ultimate container for crap. And then once it eats through you... it sets your bones on fire. LOVELY!
+Frigley der geni there are some substances that are stored in plastic containers so they don't react with the silicates from glass. in our labs we first dilute them and put them in those containers. but i don't know how they work with those acids, maybe they do the same but use Teflon vases and jars
“THE CONCRETE. WAS ON FIRE.” is a quote that’s been stuck in my head ever since I first watched this video because of how FLABBERGASTED Hank sounds when saying it
My goodness Hank Green, your excitement at all things scientific is contagious and brings me back to when I was a kid discovering stuff for the first time. That's no mean feat because that was around 5 and a half decades ago!
Except you can hit it with a hammer and it doesn't actually explode. It's not that it was super sensitive. It's that they didn't have the equipment required to test sensitivity.
"Wanna join us for a night out?" AA: Self destruct "Uh, ok, watch a movie?" AA: self destruct "Ok then, maybe just chat or something? Anything?" AA: self destruct "I think I'll just leave you alone" AA: self destruct
Probably the most educational video I've watched in a while. He didn't just spit out the most basic facts about what makes it so dangerous. He also explained what makes up the chemicals and why the are so dangerous.
“Especially exciting is that flourine really likes to bond with calcium… So once the acid tears through the fatty organic tissues of your skin and muscles, the flourine will burn through your bones”
It's also a crazy bad neurotoxin in the same way dimethylmercury is. So... 1.) Eats your insides 2.) Eats your brain 3.) Causes cancer 4.) Just for good measure, explodes.
Years ago, I worked in a lab where we used ClF3 to extract oxygen from rocks and silicate minerals to do stable isotope analysis. The stuff was scary to work with. Had to be careful. VERY careful.
@@leptoon it's like it's just being said out of the blue....as in nobody initiated a conversation etc etc...and then the curious german said..what he said..with everyone else knowing EXACTLY what's going to happen...kind of an IN joke...never mind....
The list of things that makes Azidoazide azide explode had me cracking up on the floor. And that line that said Cl-F3 is so oxidizing that it can burn things that’s already burnt lmao. I love chemistry
Except you can hit 1-Diazidocarbamoyl-5-azidotetrazole and it doesn't actually explode. It's not that it was super sensitive. It's that they didn't have the equipment required to test sensitivity.
@@Cl-2048 The best bit of info I heard about ClF3 was from a firefighter who was experienced in dealing with it (a scary phrase in and of itself). He said the standard procedure was to shovel sand onto it. "It will still oxidize the sand, and the sand will burn, but of all the things in existence that it can burn, sand is the cheapest."
I wonder if you can create a chemical equally as potent but that actually smells like Strawberries or something ...... and then gene edit skunks to produce that instead of what they normally produce xD
People used to be a bit careful about click chemistry (the azide-alkyne cycloaddition type) because of what was called azidophobia. No-one wanted to mess with explosive nitrogen compounds 😂 I've worked with them a lot, the general rule is to have a lot more carbons than nitrogens and then they tend to play nice 😊
Is one of the way to determine is it safe to isolate/store is to take the ratio of nitrogen/carbon If its below 1 it will blow up if isolated or concentrated, 1-3 is alright but shount be stored for long, and above 3 is safe to do anything with it. I’ve personally never worked with azide but I’ve heard bunch of story reported in angewante chemie
me too. would have thought that by now humans would have one-upped each of these. would also love to see some of these in action, but seems difficult to find any footage.
Man: “Germany 1939, in a secret bunker...” Me(trying to guess the chemical): “It’s meth.” Man: “It explodes in air, it’s lethal when inhaled...” Me: “Not meth.”
Remember that scene in `Breaking Bad' where Walter meets Tuco? "This," holding up a flake of crystal, "is not meth." [Blows up Tuco's office.] Tuco: "Whoa man, that's the coolest 5h!t I've ever seen! I think we can work together."
we actually put meth into a chocolate called "Panzerschokolade" (among others) during WW2. It enabled soldiers to stay awake for 3-4 days to make Blitzkrieg maneuvers possible like the Ardennes offensive.
@@sep27061985 There's a good reason they didn't repeat that on the eastern front. Turns out pretty much any of the amphetamines will really do a number on your mind and body. Combine that with staying awake for much, much longer than our organism can really handle. The longest I've been awake was 3 days and it was already quite nasty - bones aching, very hard to concentrate, some auditory and visual hallucinations, so sweaty and greasy I had a shower every 8 to 12 hours.... and that was just from sitting around. Not to mention the fatigue for almost a full week following that endeavour. I really don't wanna imagine what it must've been like fighting in the battle of France... being awake as long as you physically could to stay in the fight. I'm quite sure those soldiers were burnt out to hell after the fall of France...
There is an excellent book, "Ignition", written by a researcher who was heavily involved in the development of rocket fuels. It talks about chlorine trifluoride and fluorine fires. To quote from the book, "When asked for the best way to deal with a fluorine fire, I have always recommended a good pair of running shoes." LOL 😀
The Lonely Tourist Looks like it took him quite a lot of effort not to laugh when he said that AA blew up under such heavily controlled conditions anyway XD
+RokviikPlays I totally agree I mean my friend doesn't know the months in fucking order. The school never taught him. That's not his fAult it's the dumbass school
+RokviikPlays hmmm. you remind me of my dumbass classmates that whine about their bio teacher not teaching them. ofcourse when i listen to the teacher i learn alot, then we get some exercises that make us study, ofcourse others while the teacher talks about our topic, the others just mumble completely useless shit that they can discuss after school or on breaks.
+RokviikPlays a recommendation for both you and the other dude, I would recommend not swearing when trying to say you are smart. It is completely counter-argumentative.
if you talk in class with others that your teacher is stupid instead of learning, then you are dumb.if you are learning in class, then you most likely should be doing good at school. you should be doing homework too, dont blame the teachers for teaching you badly or something, blame yourself for not paying attention.
AA: *sits in shock-proof container in dark room* random scientist: "Azidoazide azide was a very exciting discovery." AA: *"F### YOU TOO!!!!!" explodes*
Spot on with your explanations. I now run a daycare (Which has its own toxins), but I used to be a chemist and I worked with variations on just about everything you talked about. The first company I worked for made antimony products including catalysts and other much more tame products. The second company I worked for made fluoridated polymers and the gases that go into them. The statement about how aggressive fluorine is in attacking your body is absolutely true. And let's just say that any metal can get excited under the right conditions. Not for the faint of heart, or the careless.
2019 - watching this for the umpteenth time. Still unbelievable fun to listen while being informative. I consider this to be one of SciShow masterpieces. Thanks to Hank and co for this...
Joey Crain I'm just imagining some worn down, haggard scientist getting all excited when he finally got the stuff to sit in the instrument without exploding, only for it to blow up when he flicked the switch.
Kai Yamazawa *If I was writing a story about it happening:* Flames danced upon the concrete ground as it turned into a muck. It burned straight through the concrete, as I watched in panic from a good distance away. Theres no way such a substance could BURN through the concrete, right? I thought as it started burning the gravel underneath, turning it into char. I must be hallucinating... *If I saw it in real life:* The concrete was on fire!
When I was in grad school I worked with several different alkyl-thiols. I wanted to do a study on the difference in bonding strength between thiols and selenols but my advisor acted like the selenols were fluoroantimonic acid coated with dimethyl cadmium and wrapped in a chlorine trifluoride. Amazingly he had no issues with me using Hydrofluoric acid and Ammonium Fluoride. About three years after I wanted to do the experiments another group did them and got the publications. Pretty much the story of my grad school career. I would suggest something and be told it wasn't worth doing only to see some other group do it a couple years later and get the publication. I even had one where I had done the work and had the data and was told it wasn't that interesting and about a year later someone published it. It was frustrating to say the least.
Such is the nature of man. They just don’t see the potential you do. I implore you to pursue your studies and release your publications without concern of those above you I know it’s easier said than done but true progress through science is achieved through brutal trial and error, and defiance of conventional thinking. You may have not got credit for those studies but your line of thinking was right. I wish you the best of luck in your further studies

@@kingjames4886 What I mean is that this old, 2014 SciShow presentation has stood the test of time. It's one of my favorites to share with folks who aren't familiar with the channel's mission of communicating science in a way that laypersons can understand easily. It's also heck-a funny; Hank is at top manic in this one and I love it to pieces.
It's got demziomed be used he said bazis
Same for 2022
I think I saw this episode about when it came out and it's still to this day one of the best thing on the Internet. Packed with information mixed with genius level comedy.
Yet exaggerated
I still come back to it occasionally.
Same lol
@@mork6668 Not really. Do some research on all these chemicals using sources outside this video lol. It's pretty on point.
I'm watching this video like the 5th time
It is 2023. I have been coming back to this video time and again for nearly a decade and it's still one of the best videos on the entire internet.
Also, LOVE to see scishow make an update video or maybe "5 more absolutely redoculous chemicals that can kill you in increasingly interesting ways" Because Hank making videos where he Jovially describes absolutely insanely dangerous chemicals is just the kind of vibes more people need in their lives.
I love the fact they did absolutely nothing to AA, and it still went;
“BOOOORED” *boom*
Voidlord xD
@test 101 smh imagine you're life being so boring everything has to become arbitrarily political.
test 101 so you go onto a video from ages ago, which had nothing to do with politics, and blame _something_ on liberals?
Nobody even knows what you’re trying to blame them for. Nobody even cares. We’re just tired of people doing this kind of thing
test 101 DEM DAMN LIBERALS! RUINING EVERYTHING! I HAVE NO FLAWS WHATSOEVER!
This is probably the best SciShow video I've seen. Its like he's rapping out knowledge
I come back to this video whenever I need a good laugh!
If you really want to see Hank get poetic, I think his alltime best was a vlogbrothers video: Yellowstone: The Terror of Change
If you think this is funny, you should read the articles he got most of the lines from blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/2013/05/08/things_i_wont_work_with_dimethylcadmium
@@MrJesterblack I love scishow, but I feel like this entire video was paraphrased from Derek Lowe's 'things I won't work with' blog. I definitely feel I've read some of the exact phrases from this video in his articles.
I keep watching this over and over but it doesn't get old
Andromeda Gaming same lol
Andromeda Gaming I swear I've seen that profile picture in CS:GO
right, ive watched this for two years on and off like 15 times a month, that and deadly substances, deadly plants

I barely passed high school chemistry, but this is fascinating.
It is. And quite scary, if some people with ill intentions got hold of it.
Azidoazide Azide, a chemical so dangerous, they had to say its name three times.
Beetlejuice: "It's showtime."
Moto Moto
I think Azid Azid likes you
lololol
Best comment ever
Legend has it, if you say azide 3 times in the mirror of a dark bathroom, it just *exploded*
I heard that if you cross two pencils and say "Azide Azide are you there?" and you don't blow up, then the answer is no.
What explodes? Azide, the mirror, the bathroom or you?
"Yes."
Somewhere, deep within the Earth's crust, there is a chunk of this stuff. And if us humans mention it's name too many times...Well, let's just say all life on Earth is gonna have a really, really bad day.
Then please don't think about playing this : ruclips.net/video/FEdiOBz4zeM/видео.html 🎫😵

Fab Funty wtf was that
This is such a classic SciShow episode I came back to watch it again.
If you came back to watch it again, please sign the reply guestbook.
Me too.
He just sound so happy
It's borderline hilarious listening to someone talk about an oxidizer that can incinerate asbestos.
Yeah. Hi.
I rewatch this video nearly every month, and it still cracks me up when I listen to it.
I've watched it several times.
Nilered made thioacetone in a recent video, and he said that up close, it didn't smell terrible, but the farther from the source that you got, the more potent the odor became
it's the ppm that matters. a lot of extremely terrible scents don't smell like anything up close because the ppm is so high that your senses can't register anything up close, but once the ppm gets low enough (aka further away from the source) you start to be able to detect the scent again. it's interesting how that works.
Nobody:
Azidoazide Azide: *_"I have decided that I want to explode."_*
everyone else: uh o-
its actually not too bad. The youtube channel Explosions&Fire2 made it in his shed. He has some videos about it.
"What is your one purpose in life?"
"To explode, of course."
Bomb #20
I feel like it’d be the kind of person that, when someone actually wants it to go boom, it stays perfectly still
You can't put under a fume hood-It'll eat the fume hood. All you can really do is ,just like, look at it. Ideally from.. very far away.
11/10
i would suggest looking at it from a different time zone of from orbit...preferably while in orbit around a completely different planet
Dren b
Scott Mantooth no you dult. From a different star system
that is probably safer...but not by much
I'll try to see it timetraveling...10...100 years far ago in the future, but I dunno if I'll be safe anyway!
Storing Azidoazide Azide is the chemical definition of the saying "Damned if you do, damned if you don't."
Just like marriage???
Also proven wrong by Explosions and Fire, its less sensitive than Touch Powder.
yes
Except you can hit it with a hammer and it doesn't actually explode. It's not that it was super sensitive. It's that they didn't have the equipment required to test sensitivity.
More like BOOM if you do, BOOM if you don't
Thanks!
What I learnt today:
1. Chlorine triflouride: *THE CONCRETE IS ON FIRE*
2. Nitrogen big gae
3. Dimethyl cadmium: Xbox Live chat 2010
4. Thioacetone: My dad's socks.
5. Fluoroantimonic acid: *psst kid.....want some proton?
5. Teflon: "I'm about to end this SbHF6 's entire career."
3 is toxic, 4 is extremely smelly
LMAO makes sense now
I forgot azidoazide azide
2 5's
Azidoazide azide: NO!
Chemicals yet to be found: *exist*
Germany: *allow us to introduce ourselves*
I like how that one scene from Veggie Tales of all things has become a meme lately.
Germany did a lot for chemistry! Meaning the scientists, obviously lol. Both organic and inorganic.
@@Oracle13 That's true, but there's a Haber for every Heisenberg (I'm considering quantum mechanics close enough lol).
Well that and Sweden. Did they really need to name _four_ elements after the town of Ytterby?

@@aileethefirst8094 as you make no sense.
Every now and then I like to come back and rewatch this episode. It has one of the funniest presentations of a really cool subject 💚
I think Hank Green enjoyed making this video. He is almost luminous.
You seem cute < :
The Hammurabi Chode wow you must be desperate
If he's luminous it's because he filmed this video after top 5 glowiest chemicals
the AA molecule is just hilarious... I don't know why but the idea that nothing could happen and it just explodes, just because. It's the ultimate example of Moore's law.. everything you do can and will get you killed... including nothing.
adam Moore's law? The one that says that the number of transistors on a computer chip will double every roughly two years? I think you meant Murphy's law, which your comment may be an example of. ;)
I N C L U D N I N G N O T H I N G
Moore's law?
Although from a physics perspective it wasn't nothing that caused it to explode. It gets into statistical thermodynamics to explain further but there was something happening that caused the explosion. Just not any type of external force. The energy that caused the explosion would have already been in the system. They could have likely prevented the explosion by storing it at a cooler temperature.
@@TimothyReeves Gordon Moore
This is my FAVORITE SciShow episode ever. I like the part when he is describing Azidoazide Azide. "I think somebody said something mean about it somewhere, and it was like !&%*@!"
I can't get over "The concrete was on fire!!!!!" :DDDD
*blinking insecurely* The concrete... was on fireeeee
Zulatek666 i think someone said something mean about it and it was like fuckyouimgonnablowup
Moritz Gaßan I agree.. that part had me rollin on the floor
It'll burn things that some people might think are not flammable, like BRICKs or ASBESTOS or stuff that has already been burned!
Thanks
New chemistry insult: You're more sensitive than azidoazide azide
nice
XD
*Ba doom tish*
How about: you stink more than thioacetone
That burn was worse than dropping chloring trifluoride
Your habits are more toxic than dimethyl cadmium
You eat through a buffet like fluoroantimonic acid eats through a human body (and everything else)
Acid so strong it eats through glass.
That itself scares me since usually glass is the ultimate container for crap.
And then once it eats through you... it sets your bones on fire.
LOVELY!
yeah thats just weird.HF also goes thru Glas But pp or pe is Safe.
+Frigley der geni there are some substances that are stored in plastic containers so they don't react with the silicates from glass. in our labs we first dilute them and put them in those containers. but i don't know how they work with those acids, maybe they do the same but use Teflon vases and jars
+Darrell Jared very carefully
***** Unfortunately I'm not a chemist. But maybe introduce something that renders it inert?
I read the original comment and instantly thought of the blue gel in portal 2.
Guy smelling dimethylcadmium: it's disagreeable
Dimethylcadmium in his blood: *Let's agree to disagree.*
The insides of people do smell disagreeable.
“THE CONCRETE. WAS ON FIRE.” is a quote that’s been stuck in my head ever since I first watched this video because of how FLABBERGASTED Hank sounds when saying it
„It will kill you now - and later“ :D
Most succinct (and charismatic) explanation of acute vs chronic I've ever seen
Germany: lets do some chemistry research
Entire world: NOOOOO !!!!!
I am the alchemist!
YESSSSS !!!!!
And to think they still had some restraint lol
I don't know why but I laugh so hard every time at the way he says "They quickly realized this idea was...bad..."
Story of my life

My goodness Hank Green, your excitement at all things scientific is contagious and brings me back to when I was a kid discovering stuff for the first time. That's no mean feat because that was around 5 and a half decades ago!

Your inflection, timing, prosody, and non-verbal cuing are superb.
Lol man I burst out laughing with that "somebody said something mean about it" joke
Probably the most educational video I've watched in a while. He didn't just spit out the most basic facts about what makes it so dangerous. He also explained what makes up the chemicals and why the are so dangerous.
The lonely Otaku Welcome to SciShow!
“Especially exciting is that flourine really likes to bond with calcium… So once the acid tears through the fatty organic tissues of your skin and muscles, the flourine will burn through your bones”
It is exciting. Exciting to be hearing about it and not living it!
Lovely!
Thats why hydrogen fluoride scares me, it bonds with calcium electrolytes in your body and screws with your heart rhythm. I hate it
No burial needed. That's its bonus!
Yes it’s 🤯😫
5:39 "it will kill you now, AND later" is the funniest thing ive ever heard in my life
6:24 ”dont get your hopes up, itll inflict you with cancer JUST TO SPITE YOU!” sounds hella evil 😂😂😂
It's also a crazy bad neurotoxin in the same way dimethylmercury is. So...
1.) Eats your insides
2.) Eats your brain
3.) Causes cancer
4.) Just for good measure, explodes.
I love, how excited Hanks is in this episode!
Years ago, I worked in a lab where we used ClF3 to extract oxygen from rocks and silicate minerals to do stable isotope analysis. The stuff was scary to work with. Had to be careful. VERY careful.
Such an entertaining video. Well-made science-nerd entertainment. The humour is spot-on, including choice of words, facial expressions, etc.

The list of things that makes Azidoazide azide explode had me cracking up on the floor. And that line that said Cl-F3 is so oxidizing that it can burn things that’s already burnt lmao. I love chemistry
ClF3 doesn't burn. However, pretty much everything that touches it does. The only way to put it out is noble gases or liquid nitrogen.
I also like chemistry lessons my self it a very interesting study
Except you can hit 1-Diazidocarbamoyl-5-azidotetrazole and it doesn't actually explode. It's not that it was super sensitive. It's that they didn't have the equipment required to test sensitivity.
@@Cl-2048 The best bit of info I heard about ClF3 was from a firefighter who was experienced in dealing with it (a scary phrase in and of itself).
He said the standard procedure was to shovel sand onto it. "It will still oxidize the sand, and the sand will burn, but of all the things in existence that it can burn, sand is the cheapest."
azidoazide azide is actually not that sensitive. There are videos of people testing it, and its not nearly as unstable as the paper suggests
"We need to evacuate the city before the volcano goes off. Get the thioacetone"
Probably the only youtube comment I've actually laughed at.
Lol. It might actually work
I wonder if you can create a chemical equally as potent but that actually smells like Strawberries or something
...... and then gene edit skunks to produce that instead of what they normally produce xD
@@Broockle Hey, I read that webcomic!
@@MaddTheSane
o wat? ;D
My ideas are always too slow xD
Which comic is that?
People used to be a bit careful about click chemistry (the azide-alkyne cycloaddition type) because of what was called azidophobia. No-one wanted to mess with explosive nitrogen compounds 😂
I've worked with them a lot, the general rule is to have a lot more carbons than nitrogens and then they tend to play nice 😊
Is one of the way to determine is it safe to isolate/store is to take the ratio of nitrogen/carbon
If its below 1 it will blow up if isolated or concentrated, 1-3 is alright but shount be stored for long, and above 3 is safe to do anything with it.
I’ve personally never worked with azide but I’ve heard bunch of story reported in angewante chemie

Man: “Germany 1939, in a secret bunker...”
Me(trying to guess the chemical): “It’s meth.”
Man: “It explodes in air, it’s lethal when inhaled...”

"This," holding up a flake of crystal, "is not meth." [Blows up Tuco's office.]
Tuco: "Whoa man, that's the coolest 5h!t I've ever seen! I think we can work together."
@@0mn1vore I've never watched 'Breaking Bad', but that sounds... interesting. And a little dangerous.
Well in the right circumstances....
we actually put meth into a chocolate called "Panzerschokolade" (among others) during WW2. It enabled soldiers to stay awake for 3-4 days to make Blitzkrieg maneuvers possible like the Ardennes offensive.
@@sep27061985 There's a good reason they didn't repeat that on the eastern front. Turns out pretty much any of the amphetamines will really do a number on your mind and body. Combine that with staying awake for much, much longer than our organism can really handle. The longest I've been awake was 3 days and it was already quite nasty - bones aching, very hard to concentrate, some auditory and visual hallucinations, so sweaty and greasy I had a shower every 8 to 12 hours.... and that was just from sitting around. Not to mention the fatigue for almost a full week following that endeavour.
I really don't wanna imagine what it must've been like fighting in the battle of France... being awake as long as you physically could to stay in the fight. I'm quite sure those soldiers were burnt out to hell after the fall of France...
There is an excellent book, "Ignition", written by a researcher who was heavily involved in the development of rocket fuels. It talks about chlorine trifluoride and fluorine fires. To quote from the book, "When asked for the best way to deal with a fluorine fire, I have always recommended a good pair of running shoes." LOL 😀

+RokviikPlays a recommendation for both you and the other dude, I would recommend not swearing when trying to say you are smart. It is completely counter-argumentative.
if you talk in class with others that your teacher is stupid instead of learning, then you are dumb.if you are learning in class, then you most likely should be doing good at school. you should be doing homework too, dont blame the teachers for teaching you badly or something, blame yourself for not paying attention.
AA: *sits in shock-proof container in dark room*
random scientist: "Azidoazide azide was a very exciting discovery."
AA: *"F### YOU TOO!!!!!" explodes*
"Azidoazide azide is an amazing new chemical!"
AA: *Explodes from the compliment.*
It still isn't as volatile as the old RUclips comments section...
Everytime someone says "azidoazide azide", a bit of that explodes
in a nutshell, yes.
Spot on with your explanations. I now run a daycare (Which has its own toxins), but I used to be a chemist and I worked with variations on just about everything you talked about. The first company I worked for made antimony products including catalysts and other much more tame products. The second company I worked for made fluoridated polymers and the gases that go into them. The statement about how aggressive fluorine is in attacking your body is absolutely true. And let's just say that any metal can get excited under the right conditions. Not for the faint of heart, or the careless.
2019 - watching this for the umpteenth time. Still unbelievable fun to listen while being informative. I consider this to be one of SciShow masterpieces. Thanks to Hank and co for this...

*If I saw it in real life:* The concrete was on fire!
When I was in grad school I worked with several different alkyl-thiols. I wanted to do a study on the difference in bonding strength between thiols and selenols but my advisor acted like the selenols were fluoroantimonic acid coated with dimethyl cadmium and wrapped in a chlorine trifluoride. Amazingly he had no issues with me using Hydrofluoric acid and Ammonium Fluoride. About three years after I wanted to do the experiments another group did them and got the publications. Pretty much the story of my grad school career. I would suggest something and be told it wasn't worth doing only to see some other group do it a couple years later and get the publication. I even had one where I had done the work and had the data and was told it wasn't that interesting and about a year later someone published it. It was frustrating to say the least.
It sounds like you needed a different advisor
Such is the nature of man. They just don’t see the potential you do. I implore you to pursue your studies and release your publications without concern of those above you I know it’s easier said than done but true progress through science is achieved through brutal trial and error, and defiance of conventional thinking. You may have not got credit for those studies but your line of thinking was right. I wish you the best of luck in your further studies
