Shame they didnt have a length of metal piping to try as well. I wonder if the heater on the door handle would actually get the knob hot enough to burn, without igniting the door its fitted to?
He throws it out in front of him. It even shows it in the clip. It's an overhand throw, so that momentum coupled with the back swing is what causes the extra force
I like what you guys are trying to do. I honestly do. These can be better planned, such as having a dummy like Zombie go BOOM and Kentucky Ballistics, and discussing the physics by what's happening.
I was thinking the exact same thing. The dummy would be more accurate than the watermelon, particularly with the plaster bag. One because the neck itself, even if it snaps, is connected to the spine and the spine would take some of the force down the vertebrae before the person falls. By the time they hit the ground they may Crack the back of their skull but it wouldn't explode into pieces. There's more but for the sake of keeping this short I'm just saying I agree.
I think that they did a great job. Not everything can be making explosives and dangerous things. Not ALL people wanna see that type of stuff even though I bet we both enjoy that content. However MOST everyone has seen home alone hence the reason AND the correct season for this video to be made. They don't do this for free dude. This has a high chance for monetization.
Actually if anything I’d assume the opposite, water is pretty dense. Depending on if it’s a water or oil based paint too, oil is less dense than water.
@@TheKingofRandom and it depends on the color cause the brighter more white the color is it weighs slighty more then a darker color cause there is less paint in a darker color it can be about 2-12 oz lighter so not a big difference and yeah a gallon of paint its going to be little be heavier than water cause of the additives to paint again only a few oz but it will be close enough i work at a hardware store int the paint deparment all day so i lift and mix the cans and 5 gallon buckets alot so i know a few things about paint im not expert but ive learned a thing or two in my two and half years working there
The lack of safety frustrates me. The shield stunt: wear a frigging helmet. If you fall on your head from that height, you'll be in hospital! Electricity stung: you have safety goggles and gloves. Use them! Standing behind the target...
@@993ti I'm still part of a bygone era where I could walk from school on my own without helicopter parents and I had a chemistry kit as toy. LOL I'm now a trained Chemist and I've seen so many violations and accidents that it just pisses me off when people don't even follow basic safety rules...
@TheKingofRandom No, but many get seriously injured by making just one misstep on stairs... What you do is riskier and it can go well for 1000 times, but trust me: you'll regret the time it goes wrong!
Problem with your electric sink: Kevin used an AC/DC Arc Welder while you used a compact tac welder. They put out MUCH different energy as the Arc welder is designed for doing those big blobs of welding for reinforcing beams and such while your little tac welder is made for doing small dabs to hold something together for a short time. Myth Busters proved this one real with an actual Full size Arc Welder set to MAX settings (Not what Kevin had it set to if you check the video)
06:30 high amps but low volts? Yeah that will unalive you HARD. A person can take thousands of volts, if the ampage is low. Thats what will end you, the ampage. ESPECIALLY if you grab with your hands and let the current cross your heart.
With the paint can, I think you missed a fact. The paint can, as well as the drop, there is a ledge which the rope would hit. Thst would act on the can by shortening the rope and giving the can a "whipping" effect, increasing its velocity. I can't really work out the maths behind it but I think we'd be looking at some very nasty injuries.
While using a framing nailler a few years ago I had a nail go through a 2x4 that cracked and deflected the nail. The nail then hit the cinder block behind the two pieces of wood and came straight at my right eye. Luckily I was wearing safety glasses. It all happened so fast I saw the nail hit the glasses before I could blink. It was amazing and frightening at the same time.
5:38 with electricity, you need volts and amps to kill. The frequency and the duration of the shock is also a factor. I have a modified transformer that outputs nearly a thousand amps but is limited to 2v, I can’t even feel it on my fingers when I touch it, yet that same current can melt copper in seconds.
The hotdog welder test wouldn't be too dramatic bc you dont need an excessive amount of Voltage/Amperage to form a closed circuit. If you tossed that hotdog thing so it touched 2 high tension wires at the same time the dogs would explode. (170kv + @5 amps.)
I can already answer this medically, NO. Theydve died in so many different ways irl- like the paint cans, the flames the bricks (second movie) etc. If ur wondering it’d break the cervical spine stopping u being able to breath.
I doubt the two separate sausages, even connected by a copper rod, are a great conductor of electricity. especially when they are not really touching each other, just the capper bar. Anything acting as an insulator, would interfere with that connection.
that welder looks like it might be a little smarter than the one in the movie. the one used in the movie was a buzz box and is nothing more than a transformer hooked up to 240. the beep from yours and the size suggests it isn't up to the task that you are trying to test.
Yes you can be shocked while welding. I did to myself twice when i was welding a shiv on to the deck of a towboat. I guess that will happen when you have your knee in a puddle of water while sparking an arch
You are using substitutions to actual things used in the movies. It's a different arc welder in the movie so you can't say it's the same effect because you are using a different one. In the movie is a stapel gun you are using. Something completely different so all of your test are completely invalid. Because in test like this you have to use the same kind of item exactly. To see the results this is Mythbusters 101 here.
To be pedantic, it's only a war crime if it's against uniformed combatants by another military force. It's still illegal to set boobytraps in your home, but it's not a war crime.
You guys needed to watch the movie prior to doing this. He uses a staple gun... not a nail gun, and it went through the keyhole of the door... not through the wood of the door. 🤦♂️
@TheKingofRandom he literally pulls a staple off his nose in the movie after looking through the keyhole and getting a STAPLE over his nose!!! Come on, guys. A nail gun should never have been part of this because it never happened. That's just ridiculous.
I feel like the paint can would gain more momentum from hitting the bottom edge of the railing shortening the pendulums distance of rotation increasing the speed of the paint can
I would like to inform all a brad nail is dangerous, was doing a bit of work went to push the boards together and the strike side of the brad nail popped back out and shot through the bottom of my thumb and out the back side of my finger behind the nail.
Okay I clicked on that ... Great move... We need more energy of the team , they talk to slow , you need to catch the attention of the viewer otherwise they leave... This is too slowwss

The thing that has always bothered me about that paint can scene is that he doesn't really throw it out, it's more of a drop than a swing.
And it makes more sense considering it is hanging from the railing exactly opposite to where Kevin stands.
@@nayyarrashid4661Nope, Grant Thompson
Shame they didnt have a length of metal piping to try as well.
I wonder if the heater on the door handle would actually get the knob hot enough to burn, without igniting the door its fitted to?
Maybe he was supposed to throw it straight away from him?
He throws it out in front of him. It even shows it in the clip. It's an overhand throw, so that momentum coupled with the back swing is what causes the extra force

Those are apparently very expensive and Kentucky gets them sent to him for free. Take that as you will
Those full torso dummies cost 2k apiece, just so you know
rip grant
The most impressive part is that safety glasses are worth every penny to protect your eyes.
I have not watched since Grant passed. He provided so much fun stuff for me to do with my kids. If this is the new direction, Im down.
Paint is denser than water, and 1 gallon of paint weighs more than water.
I'm no plumber, but the hot and cold water lines are technically connected to each other, so wouldn't the welder short itself out and trip a breaker
Houston Jones actually did some of this to himself
His leg squirting was bad 👍
I'll be honest, I haven't watched in a while, but man this guy sounds like Ron Swanson! Haha amazing
Loved this video, perhaps test other movie stunts/scenes in a future video.
What a long way we have come from the true king of random 😢

the can wasn't full in the movie anyways based on the dry paint on the side of the can
A gallon of liquid will weigh 8 pounds no what the liquid is.
About 2-4 pounds less
The lack of safety frustrates me.

Was that a welder in the sink scene or really big jumper pack for jumping a big commercial/industrial vehicle engine?
A thing I've noticed about the electric sink trap from the movie is that Kevin cranked it up as it was shocking Marv.
Wishing Grant a heavenly Merry Christmas.

Yup, 0.1 Amps can be fatal.
I like the direction this channel is going you guys should do more test like this
All that crazy testing to just see how AMAZING safety glasses are! Safety is always #1 great video!
I absolutely love the vibes of you two. This is a cool video!
Framing nail guns are no joke! Had 18 gauge nails rip through plywood and almost hit people. It really hurts when you have a nail stuck in your thumb.
This was a fun little batch of experiments, and a great birthday present for me! 🎉

Volts dont kill, Amps(Ampere) does
Sure, but the volts have to be high enough to overcome skin resistance first
So with the paint can, Kevin throws it down as hard as he can which would give the paint can lots of added velocity
This is the Alternate Universe Harry and Marv trying to mythbust the Home Alone Harry and Marv’s plight of disaster.😂
You could survive Home Alone 1, but the traps in part 2 are lethal.
There are a number of "Doctor's diagnoze 'Home alone' injuries" on RUclips so I already know the answer: No, I would not survive.
depending on the state, he may have had the right to defend the castle. which means he could use lethal force to stop the bandits.
Pretty sure that law doesn't allow booby traps
All traps are illegal due to the fact they can't tell the difference between a robber and anyone else.
NY in home alone 2 so no.

11:18 ballistics gel woot!
If you are testing the electrocution method, you'll need ElectroBoom to test it for you, he tends to get into hijinks and shocks.
Older sink , more metal than plastic fixtures and I guarantee that welder isn’t putting out as much as the arc welder would’ve in the movie
Merry Christmas, everyone!!!
I would survive, because I would never dream of breaking into anyone's house!
I can already answer this medically, NO. Theydve died in so many different ways irl- like the paint cans, the flames the bricks (second movie) etc.
If ur wondering it’d break the cervical spine stopping u being able to breath.
Test the final destination ones😂
Guys... it's not a welding tool it was a Car Battery Charger.......
I doubt the two separate sausages, even connected by a copper rod, are a great conductor of electricity. especially when they are not really touching each other, just the capper bar. Anything acting as an insulator, would interfere with that connection.
Ahh i see you watched Houston jones' video he posted a day or two ago
Lol our video turn around is not that fast, we filmed this 2 weeks ago
5:44 hmmmm maybe because the tape is blocking the hot dogs from touching each other
that welder looks like it might be a little smarter than the one in the movie. the one used in the movie was a buzz box and is nothing more than a transformer hooked up to 240. the beep from yours and the size suggests it isn't up to the task that you are trying to test.
Mythbusters already covered home alone
Rip grant still haven't forgotten you
Paint is more dense than water also so that should have been taken into consideration.
Mmmm, true but assuming it was a water based paint the difference wouldn’t be much
Yes you can be shocked while welding. I did to myself twice when i was welding a shiv on to the deck of a towboat. I guess that will happen when you have your knee in a puddle of water while sparking an arch
I've been shocked several times myself just from sweating with both an ac welder and a dc welder
Great job guys, love the return to the Random!
Someone should give those safety glasses a raise!
I seen people do the pain can, burning door handle and falling iron traps in real life....surprisingly they ware completely fine after a while
Technically, your water in the paint can isn't technically valid. because paint weighs more than water. There's about a five lb difference.
I love how Jake said 1 and 2 are the only two that exist as if 3 and the remake don't exist
1 & 2 are the only ones that exist
Safety Third!
Can confirm it is possible to get shocked by a welder. I shocked myself on my TIG welder and it was NOT fun 😂
You also have to take in account the psi going to the nail gun.
Houston Jones did the paint can and it cut his head .
Not sure how much difference it would make but, it looked like was was way closer up to the door, almost pressning against it.
You are using substitutions to actual things used in the movies. It's a different arc welder in the movie so you can't say it's the same effect because you are using a different one.

Yes, welder use a transformer so low voltage high current
Estimating the distances seems like kind of the whole exercise
Yea ... Houston Jones did it first and tested these on himself.
The "welder" was actually a car charger
i beleave in the sink one he was using a battery charger, not a welder. Thats why it had two clamps a positive and negative. Just a thought.
Marv must have a stronger neck than Mike Tyson lol
They are going to come out with a 3rd one with the original cast I heard
brad nailers can shoot staples homie...
YOU GUYS ARE YEARS LATE
Bro sounds like Ron Swanson
5:56 are you serious or its just a comment bite? You separated sausages from each other by isolation and wondering why it’s not working 💀
The home alone movies and Jingle All the Way are my favorite christmas movies
Home alone and Go!. If you haven't seen Go! it's a tragically underrated 90s comfy comedy. It takes place on Christmas to.
Pretty sure if someone did this is real life they would be charged with war crimes
To be pedantic, it's only a war crime if it's against uniformed combatants by another military force. It's still illegal to set boobytraps in your home, but it's not a war crime.
@@bartonbone8559 Also it's typically only a war crime if you lose the war.
Watch Houston Jones!!!
Lemme save yall some time, Houston Jones did a video on these. It's nice.
The welder is totally different from the one you used plus the voltage and ampage is different
i havent watched in a while, what happened to Grace? is she still on the show or did she leave
The frame pacing though
You guys needed to watch the movie prior to doing this. He uses a staple gun... not a nail gun, and it went through the keyhole of the door... not through the wood of the door. 🤦♂️
Plus he did not use a welder, it was a battery charger
Sounds like you skipped thru the video
You are wrong, in the clip we played in this video it says in large letters AC/DC Arc Welder.
@TheKingofRandom he literally pulls a staple off his nose in the movie after looking through the keyhole and getting a STAPLE over his nose!!! Come on, guys. A nail gun should never have been part of this because it never happened. That's just ridiculous.
can you guys please use a gimbal stabilizer?
