Geez, the Nier Automata fanbase really needs to chill out
Pencils are just very tiny spears.
It’s not about the size… but how you use it XD
@@ScreenTested That's what she said...
to make you feel better
I’m so proud right now you get it… 😂
I want to see a cutting test with a pen to settle that "pen is mightier than the sword" claim.
Please pardon me I believe the old joke means writing ( the pen ) is more important that fights ( the sword)
@@AlphonsoFrett-xz6pi You are pardoned and humbly compelled to attend irony classes :-))
@@alexmashkin863it amazes me that some people feel the need to explain the obvious in response to jokes/puns. There are less senses of humor in the world than I could ever have imagined
Some underestimate the humble pencil but those of us who are wise see it for what it really is. THE PORTABLE STICK!! THE MOST LETHAL WEAPON OF ALL.
Live long and carry a portable stick! ~Shad D. Roosevelt, probably.
weird how i read your line with my own in-head voice normally... until the caps lock.... that part i read in Shad screaming about stick voice (from nunchucks videos and the mighty stick followup video - i know he uses that voice on other videos in other moments too when he is excited but the tone always reminds me of those videos first)
uk to ban pencils now.
The only thing deadlier than a pencil are pencil nunchucks... Double the pencil, double the deadliness.
Twice the pencil , double the fun
Sounds cool, but don't ya ever show it to Shad...
Or give it to him just to see him flip out
Throwback to Zombie Go Boom stabbing straight through a zombie skull with a pencil. Twice.
As someone who has been stabbed by a pencil, they are viable.
dude
@@elios7623He’s not alone, and he’s not wrong.
I don’t know about viable. I’ve been stabbed in the leg with a pencil, it got about halfway through the pencil’s total length into me, and the worst I got was an infection.
@@VidelxSpopovich Legs are pretty tough, go for the neck.
@@skyfifer5443 I totally agree, but I think the neck is the ONLY viable option with a pencil.
Years before John Wick coming out there was this RUclips channel called zombie go boom. They tested regular pencils against human head analog dummies and found them quite deadly.
Zombie go boom was great
Zombie GO Boom pencil videos: 2014 and 2015. Another mighty pen from media that im surprised isn't mentioned much or at all in the comments or wasn't mentioned in video: Dark Knight when Joker does the magic trick. That is from 2008. Am pretty sure there are older examples (maybe some old kungfu movie or some violent comic story) but Joker should have at least some mentions when it comes to pens.
@@samamies88 well, in the movie he stabs a pencil into a folding table (sheet metal or maybe plywood, idk) and then slams a guy's head unto the table, pushing the pencil through the table and unto the floor. So the pencil isn't used a weapon in this case.
In the "Wick movies," two of the pencils were being supported by solid surfaces (desk and wall). One was driven into the bottom of the jaw then the larynx. One was through the eardrum into the brain. One more was driven through the back of the neck, probably severing at least part of the spinal cord. I think...it's been a while since I watched the movie. In the movie PRESIDIO, Sean Connery used his LEFT THUMB on a badass biker dude. So, yeah, ya done good, again, Tyranth...
Dark Knight scene flashback
Let's not forget the vanishing pencil trick, from The Dark Knight. ;)
I can attest that pencils can be a weapon, I got fucking stabbed in the arm at high school by some crazy psycho.
Im sorry
But that is some crazy piece of lore you have going on
In middle school a kid tried to stab me in the face with a pencil. I blocked, and can still see the dark spot on my palm 30 years later.
He got the worse of it
A pencil killed a zombie on Zombie Go Boom; through the temple.
And through the forehead; they got it to work.
from what i remember of an episode of zgb, yes pencils can be weapons.
If Tony and Boromir ever swap war stories, I think Boromir is going to give Tony some weird looks.
How bout a magic trick? I’m going to make this pencil-disappear. Tada! It’s - gone
Tyranth says "for the most part" more than anyone I've ever heard speak. I'm here for it.
For the most part I think others would agree 😂
Tyranth, you should know what's better than a pencil : A STICK
4:51 It’s always nice to see Nate again 😊
When I was in a bad state of mind, I cut myself with a pencil, up to down.
Conclusion: the basterds are VERY sharp
With a 2B yellow pencil, you can really make a point about its lethality!
Pencils? What about the "Shoot 'em Up" carrots!?
In conclusion, a suit jacket is the ultimate pen defence.
Great. Now they are going to ban assault pencils
I actually have a few pencils with the brand name "Black Warrior".
Group with guns: *laugh at man with tiny spear*
Man with tiny spear: *laughs standing over dead group*
The formerly fitted Suit Jacket was Screen Tested and Teased (at 5:10 ) as a bonus! Thanks for the double feature!
Wish he would have done a “fat guy in a little coat” scene with that jacket
its great to see how "normal" Tyranth is. Here he talks more down to earth, quiet, sombre.
When he is on Shad's channels, he has to yell, talk more eccentric.
Technique is everything.
I’ve been stabbed in the skull with a pencil. It didn’t go through, but I did bleed. School fights can be vicious…
Speaking of pencils, I still remember in elementary school the smell of cedar and graphite being shaved when I sharpened my pencil in the manual sharpener on the wall...
My favourite weapon of maths instruction.
In school a kid stabbed himself with his pencil on accident, it did get infected and may have killed him if he didn't get some Tetra. So yes could be deadly. Anything poked in the eye or ear can do damage.
That test was murder
I regret nothing with this awful pun.
Pencils can be pretty gnarly. Before I threw a desk at him, an idiot in high school used to stab me in the leg with his pencil. It went through denim and left lead marks for months.
I know tyrant is aware, but got to say
Pencil = no lead (just graphite and clay mix)
Yeah but it’s a John wick episode so it’s lead like bullets
In good old days, any kids who was stabbed by pencil knew how "deadly" it can be. I had my hand stabbed by accident, and it was really really bad (let's say the word penatration).
They recommend always carrying a pen in more than one branch of the US military. Hopefully you have access to something better than that if you get in a bad situation, but it could have a very small chance to save your life. I wasn't in the military, but was told this by a Marine I used to play table-top RPG's with, and he told me that he was told this in boot camp.
I know a guy who knew a guy, too. He wasn't in the army, though.
As an ex soldier, yeah he's fucking with you or full of shit. Every soldier is carrying at very least a pocket knife on their person. In the field, they ae carrying a much larger knife.
You carry a pen on you to actually, you know. Write shit down. It has nothing whatsoever to do with combat. The Jarhead was just trying to sound badass, like all the Marine meatheads try to do lol
This video should have had a graphite violence warning.
5:18 "Fat guy in a little coat."
"a pencil isn't a weapon"
I was taught that intent, not construction makes something a weapon.
"The pencil is mightier than the sword."
And for my next trick, I'm going to make this pencil... Disappear
Most pencils sold in North America are made of a soft wood, mostly incense cedar. It’s resistant to bugs and rot and doesn’t splinter when sharpened. Some cheaper pencils are made from pine.
Such woods, like all woods, are stronger along the grain than across it so grip is very important as you discovered. The target matters too also as you found out.
The most believable John Wick strike was to the back of the neck where it meets the head, presumably between the vertebra to hit the spinal cord to cause paralysis or death. Either outcome would be acceptable in his situation.
You didn’t mention Heath Ledger’s Joker killing a gangster with a pencil through the eye socket into the brain. That’s also believable.
All in all a pencil wouldn’t be my first choice but military close combat instructors teach that in the right hands anything is a lethal weapon.
Look up the old OSS manuals, they teach how to use a pencil to kill. Is it a good weapon, not particularly, better than nothing though.
Thank you for the video Tyranth 👍🏻
The first movie scene that came to my mind, was Joe Pesci going berserk with a pen in Casino... It's not a pencil but close enough 😉
I need to rewatch that movie, it's so good
So the "Navy suit for War" is the best defence against maniacs with pencils 😂❤
Graphite, presumably named for its usage in writing.
Everyone forgot about Riddick, when he killed a guy with a tea cup in "The Chronicles of Riddick" movie.
You must test it Tyranth.
i love it, the aluminum pencil, is chungus. tyrant's pencil is itself, a thick one that he made, it could be a meme at some point.
I remember when I was six or seven, after just sharpening my pencil, I was playing with it, and bit a tiny bit of pressure on the sharpened tip with my thumb. Next thing I knew, I was screaming in pain because I had impaled myself on my pencil. It did not go in far, but, the tip did break off inside my thumb, and yes, it had drawn blood.
Pencils, deadly, maybe in extreme situations, but, they can still cause damage.
The number of times the clinic I worked at while in the US Army was visited by marines who hurt themselves on pencils and pens was much higher than one would want to believe.
hi tyranth could you do a vid on spiked shields like those from elden ring for example?
John Wick once killed 3 men in a bar with a pencil. I've been in a few bars and none of them had full sized pencils. They all have those stubby eraser-less pencils for lottery games. He needs to redo this with a couple of those.
The Pencil is mightier than the Sword... I'm so mad that you beat me to that punch line...
Yeah if you'll notice in the fight scene that we actually see him use a pencil in; he nevers stabs anywhere clothed, only eyes, ears, throat, and soft face parts.
I have a scar on my forearm where it was punctured with a #2 pencil. With enough force and determination a pencil can pierce human flesh.
Let us not forget the soldier credited with the only official kill with an mre spoon
A pencil isn't a weapon? Anything can be a weapon in the right hands... including those hands.
Not typically squeamish or one that has to look away from exaggerated violence but something about that pencil down the earhole man... can't do it.
Humans have killed with nearly everything. Personal favorite being a sneaky method with snow.
If it was easy to do, John wouldn't have been so feared for having done it.
I remember how one time my pencil dropped on the floor, I kicked it by mistake and a bit of grafite stuck in my foot. It went only through a sock but I imagine you can stab with a sharp pencil at uncovered areas very succesfully.
There is a reason you use felt tip pens in prison, not pencils. You'd want it shorter than these for the reasons demonstrated. You stab it in, then slam down on the butt of it to drive it deeper.
If an Icicle can be fatal, then a pencil can also
Never forget that a US Army Ranger killed an attacker with a plastic MRE Spoon
Honestly really love this channel reminds me of hacksmith but the testing is so much more involved every video surprises me more and more the blades of chaos was one were I was truly amazed at how well you tested it with all the game moves and they actually came back it blows my mind but it’s because you put everything into your testing it’s perfect
Reminds me of how Style Theory tested shoes.
It's been tested many times. There are softer and thinner areas on the skull that the pencil can pass through
I will have to say good vid, but also so you know I have been getting a crazy amount of recommendations for your backlog stuff. Just wanted to let you know that was happening if you happen to look at comments on older vids.
Awesome video Tyranth. Gonna go on a limb and say Tyranth you likely hit harder than Wick. That looked and sounded like a trip to the hospital regardless.
Humans dont like pain & blood is under pressure...so yea, with aim, they are very deadly.
I got stabbed in the chest with a pencil when I was in middle school. Still have the graphite mark on my chest.
the aluminium pencil you made looks more like a Kubotan
Nice vid. Here is a idea that may work for this channel. How resistance is different everyday cloths are to weapons. Tee shirt vs tee shirt and polo vs tee shirt, polo and winter Jacket vs Biker leather ect.
I got enough 'experience' to say. Yes. A large resounding yes.
I remember stepping on a pencil barefoot when I was like 7 and it went into my foot. Only went a few layers under the skin but still went like 2 inches inside. (Pencil was parallel and not perpendicular to my foot, that's how it penetrated 2 inches but only a few layers of skin.)
now class; take out your #2 pencil
*doom music plays*
Some might be tempted to argue that an arrow is just a large pencil with feathers :P
You need one of those Eagle pencils. Those things could almost bend 90° without breaking.
As someone who has used a pencil as a weapon… Yes.
They don’t last long, carry several.
i haven't watched the video yet but i just wanted to say i have seen zombie go boom and the slingshot channel test the pencil and it worked in both of those videos so it should also work in your too, i also saw someone put a small hole in a baking tray with one
I know they work.. cus i got stabbed through my thigh to the bone in high school.
The only thing that broke was the tip.. and its still in there haha
For those wondering.. it was a special needs kid who was upset.. and i was the closest person to them lol
I was wearing Denim Jeans.
Zombie go Boom had a video in which they found that pencils move through their bone analog like butter. something with the lead causing microfractures idk.
It may not be lethal, but it can be painful. Which is enough distraction for Mr Wick.
Question concerning the first attempt on the suit jacket: What's directly underneath the jacket? The first attempt on the neck you did penetrate the suit and then skin. So that suggests to me that whatever is between the suit and the "skin" is protecting the body.
The beginning made me think my phone was ringing. Thanks for the video and have a great day.
I’ve been stabbed by a pencil in school and I have a graphite mark under the skin like a pencil tattoo
I'd probably aim for the eyes and jugular. But that's just me.
Zombie go boom did this too. Still fun seeing it done by Tyranth.
If you draw profanity of your opponent, you can publicise that profanity. They cannot stop you.
Like Mongol silks deflecting arrow heads. That makes sense. 👊
🎵 Fat guy in a little coat, Fat guy in a little coat, Fat guy in a little coat 🎵
If you don't get the reference watch the comedy movie Tommy Boy.
After watching Taofleddermaus for a while I know they have been trying fish bait material as a replacement for ballistic jelly since it's less expensive. Maybe you could buy a 5 gal. Of it and make some "fleshy-ish" material to test weapons
One advantage is that it's unexpected. Grabbing a pencil and drilling the thing through your opponants ear is not something they're going to see comng.
Or hear!
If the pencil is mightier than the sword then is a PENguin mightier than a SWORDfish.
I’m ready for some Castlevania builds.
Thumbs up just for that intro
strong opening.
pre-video:
- a pencil is wood and carbon
- the wooden part has a pointed tip
- a pencil technically is a stake with a carbon tip
- stake is a wooden dagger
- wood implies stick
- stick is best weapon
post-vid:
- it didn't pen(cil)trate
- next up, try it with different types of pens, I can imagine a fountain pen could do some damage considering the metallic arrow-like tip
- seems like pencils only work when "injected" perfectly perpendicular, otherwise they bend/snap
But it seemed to me that according to the lore (of the film franchise at least) they make these suits bulletproof and generally durable and reliable. I don’t really remember about piercing and cutting...
zombie go boom a while ago now did pencils as part of a back to school special episode
they learned in said episode that pencils are frighteningly effective
like 1 strike 1 kill level of deadly
and the thing is they wherent hitting the soft part of their zombie torsos they where strinking the side and top of the skull and they where penetrating the skull itself
