Anyone else find literally every episode of how it’s made incredibly soothing because of dudes voice?
Glad I’m not the only one in the world
what about swaggersouls
@@roberterauth8775 Just what I was gonna say.
Yes...until he says one word.....when he says the word it drives me nuts . He says it wrong and for some reason it annoys me badly.
He is brilliant otherwise.
Chocolate....not pronounced with the "ahh " sound. It's not chaah-klat.
It reminds me of those good ol days where I watch this on our boxed tv
So crazy to think how much time goes into creating something that can be destroyed in seconds.
I get what you're saying, but that statement can be applied to just about anything
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🍌🚳🍦
That's explosive technology for you.
And that can destroy you and the environment
In Japan where I grew up, they make the firework casings with layers of paper, so seeing plastic parts was a big surprise.
seems they are just zu lazy for doing it with paper .... they don't care about nature also if this is biodegradable pastic
It's strange to see plastic parts period! I believe most of the European makers still use paper casings.
Perhaps this is just one country.
The Japanese fireworks are incredible though. Probably the best in the world.
@@hentichan no such thing as bio degradable plastic
@@liliangomes7658 Yes, there is. It's called Bioplastic. There are two main types of bioplastics--PLA and PHA. PLA (polylactic acid) is typically made from the sugars in corn starch, cassava, or sugarcane. It is biodegradable, carbon-neutral, and edible. PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) is made by microorganisms, sometimes genetically engineered, that produce plastic from organic materials.
@@liliangomes7658 You can clearly see this is like a wax plastic is characteristic of biodegradable plastics. Also the Japanese fireworks compared to this, is like comparing a grenade from 1900's to modern grenade.
Just saying. They care only for tradition. They don't have the best fireworks in world, not even close. They literally spend an entire year building the largest bomb filled with the most explosives, weighing the most. Its like saying a cannon can achieve more than a modern artillery piece.
The subject matter, Brooks Moore's narrative voice, and the wonky but subtle background music all combine to create just the best form of chill, comfortable viewing.
So THAT’S his name!
So much work into these things. It is unbelievable the work and money and time it takes for a DAILY show like at a place like Disney's Magic Kingdom, where it's a 20 minute show. That is a full time operation with SO MANY people building pyros...
Costs Disney about 50k a day to put on that firework show according to an ex employee.
The fireworks they show at the end aren’t the ones he was making. I would have liked to see the actual ones he made go off.
Tom Maness same but he cant
I know right?! I've never seen one like that. I bet that thing is nasty.
I am guessing it goes boom and lots of sparkly colors are seen in the sky. That is just a guess though.
@@pauldavis5665 you're not far off
@@travistaylor7939 look up the yonshakudama 😂
I use this guys voice for taking naps. Nothing better than falling to sleep watching this show
Hahaha!! Yes, I do too!
I've wondered if I was the only one.
I love the show, but it is also very soothing. I'll put it on to listen to when trying to go to sleep at night, not just for naps.
Brooooo I thought I was the only one!!!
When it's night time and it's not on tv, I'm sad. Best show to wind down to.
Isaac Arthur also has a great voice to snooze to. And his videos are longer so you fall asleep before they end.
i wanted to see it put into action
The fact that they posted this on the fourth is much appreciated.
*This is how you make fireworks in Minecraft*
i get this joke lol its hard very hard
That’s how Minecraft firework crafting works
This should be in the next minecraft update
@@julieronyak3907 But it's already on minecraft
oh yeah I get it now
This video gives you a pretty good idea, but it's certainly missing a lot of detail.
Shells come in all shapes and sizes. Usually plastic but sometimes multiple layers of paper mache. Most shells are spheres which is just a single compartment.
Black powder is the most common propellant and it is very difficult to ignite with static. Aluminum flash powder on the other hand is the dangerous one. Flash powder is used for bombs or "salutes", and sometimes included as a separate charge like the comets in this video. We call this a "bottomshot", because it makes a loud bang a few seconds after the main shell goes off.
Black powder burns slowly, which expands and blows the shell apart. Flash powder "defragulates" which means it explodes faster than the speed of sound (nothing can burn faster than sound).
Also, all of the fuses use black powder. Quickmatch is the entry fuse, it burns faster because it has space for the gas to expand which is why it looks kinda loose.
E-match, or electronic ignition is much more expensive and complicated to setup than quickmatch, but it can be timed a bit more precisely.
Typical homemade shells tape a paper cup of black powder to the bottom as a lift charge. This also ignites the timefuse at the bottom of the shell.
Why is he using metal tools of they're worried about static electricity? They could use rubber or plastic tools instead, wouldn't that be much safer?
@@mikebrickner1701 they really shouldn't be worried about static on this firework, it's possible but extremely unlikely. Even so, black powder burns so slowly that you might get burned but it doesn't create a shockwave. In fact, it's so slow that they stick a cup of it under the plastic shell and it launches the shell hundreds of feet without breaking it. It only breaks when the black powder inside the shell tries to expand/blow it apart.
If you watch anyone build a homemade firework, you won't see anti-static gloves. If we're dealing with aluminum flash powder you'll typically see it get "diapered" where we combine the chemicals on a sheet of paper and roll it back and forth. We do not mix flash powder in a ball mill because it's sensitive to heat, friction, and static. Just a few grams of flash powder will explode a pumpkin, from experience. The biggest salute I've fired was 1KG of flash powder.
Another fun fact, the black powder inside the shell burns so slowly that it ignites the "stars" when it goes off. When the shell is sealed up, it needs to be very compact inside so the black powder can push hard enough to blow apart the shell. It also needs to be very tightly sealed so that the shell blows up into pieces instead of two halves.
@@mikebrickner1701 Sort of the opposite. As long as the metal tools are correctly grounded i.e. in the hand of someone wearing anti-static gloves that are also correctly grounded, they won't build up any charge. Less conductive materials like rubber for example, do. This is why rubber balloons make for a good demonstration of static electricity.
@@gibbogibbogibbo Pop quiz time!
Question 1: What is the maximum speed that a flame can propagate?
A. The speed of light.
B. As fast as the molecules can bump into each other.
C. As fast as the original source of the flame.
It's obviously B, flame is a chemical reaction and the flame front is molecules bumping into each other to transfer heat. Now how fast is the speed of sound? Same answer, as fast as the molecules can bump into each other.
Why does that matter? Doesn't every explosion create a flame? Not quite, high explosives are decomposed almost instantaneously by a supersonic shock wave passing through the material. Supersonic literally meaning faster than sound. Nitroglycerin for example already has the oxygen inside it, so it doesn't really burn using oxygen from the air, but instead rearranges itself and releases energy.
"Anti-static gloves are required." Along with steady hands and balls of steel.
Steel balls might spark
Its not bad at all, if it was so dangerous, they wouldn't ship it by the tones by truck, and then I watch the handlers throw them back n forth literally dropping them occasionally. If it explodes its gonna be due to static only, so static tap and paper is good. Otherwise we all blow up when throwing it in the buggy at the store.
@@googleanti-speech7618 Yeah, I'll still maintain a respectful distance, thanks.
Fireworks are a lot of fun! I have an app on my iPad where all you have to do is tap anywhere on the screen, and let the show begin. There are some cool effects the fireworks have on the app too
lol i bet they are better in real life
Happy 4th July America! God Bless Yall!
A happy 4th of July to you too...
Same too you
U too!
Same for u
i hate this country ❤️
That background music though
I'm trying to find the name of it. It's an actual song on iTunes.
I agree
@@PyrokittyKiarla sadly the music of How it’s made isn’t available for download. It seriously should be though!
Whose American enough to watch this on the 4th of July??
They forget "DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME"
Lamo
You know what that means
Yay. That means we can try it.
Yeah, when I was making flare material at home as a kid, I almost burned the house down.
Video: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME.
Me who tried it in my school: My mommy raised a gentleman.
POV: it’s New Years and you’re curious
Yeah
They're illegal in my country
@@prizmarvalschi1319 your country is full of it
This video was posted on 4th of July.
@@prizmarvalschi1319 where ru from?
I still wonder how they make the ones with the shapes, like palms, hearts, ladders and so on.
By carefully arranging the stars in specific ways!
You have to arrange the power in particular ways
I think how do they do it showed this! It also talked about how the roofs of the buildings they assemble fireworks in aren’t connected to the walls, to minimize damage by letting the explosion go upwards rather than out.
Me waiting for him to go outside and light the homenade firework like
👁👄👁
you were likely dissapoint
He had me waiting the whole time! lol
I wasn't the only one.
Explosives detonate, with gunpowder we talk about deflagration… A fast combustion🤷🏼♂️ Gunpowder Can light by friction, and start burning…. Yeah a firecracker explodes, But still its deflagration😎 Lovely video💯‼️
Im not a pyrotechnician - Im an explosives expert!🤓
I love these older episodes with the line drawing in the beginning
no they're dreadful!
Fun Fact: This originally aired ON 4th of JULY...
But how do you make the fireworks that explode in shapes, like stars or smiley faces?
Nice the same narrator is here after like 4 years or something
RCCRAFT more like 14 years
The people who work making these massive fireworks have serious balls of steel; to think that they are working around so much explosives, any incidents could be fatal
Fun fact, if you see a firework that is either purple or blue, those were the hardest to make out of any of the other fireworks that you see, it's because it takes 19 chemical agents to get the right color.
Umm, wrong..
Potassium Perchlorate
Parlon
Copper Oxide
Hexamine
Phenolic Resin
Just one of a dozen different blue star formulas. Not quite 15, but you're close.
@@MumPyro for purple why cant we just use only potassium? doesnt that give a purple colour?
@@kataraarts3027 unfortunately that isn't how it works. Different chemicals are color donors and need other elements present in the reaction to give off the correct wavelength of light along with all of the other properties needed to create a firework star that will stay lit at a few hundred feet a second velocity.
@@MumPyro ahh ok I see thank you for your comments🙏🏽
next up how fingers are reattached.
*Today is the first day of year 2021, and I got curious on how fireworks are made and how they work.*
*_HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE_*
GOD BLESS AMERICA FROM MÉXICO WITH LOVE
That's simple enough, It's gunpowder and paper.
I see you're a man of culture as well
And dye
Nextel thing you know your house blows up😳🤡
Beat me to it. Well played
Said the guy with a missing hand...
First type of asmr and we didn’t even know it
The music sounds like infants playing instruments
This video is so wrong. Everyone knows fireworks are made with gunpowder, paper, diamonds, glowstone dust and a creeper head.
there are no creepers in my area, maybe I have to go to Canada where this was recorded
@@AhDollar wild creepers are actually indigenous to northern Mexico, southwest US and Mediterranean regions where it's warm and dry so you won't have luck in Canada
I love this narrator and I remember watching this episode In 6th grade and now I'm 26 years old and I'll be 27 next year
"The pyrotechnician must handle them gingerly, or they could detonate." At that point I found myself counting his fingers to make sure they were all there...
Just like i wanted!
bruh this series gives me hella nostalgia, especially this specific commentator
Some guy was like: It’s kind of like fire and it works...a firework!
Naw it was some good dude and he said we can shoot these hoes and they fire so I’mma give em that fire work 😂😂
I like this channel. I like Discovery
according to his speed, by the time he finish the fireworks, it's already 5th of July.
this was likely videotaped in Canada, I doubt they care about American federal holidays
Same thing goes for the Valencian falles on Saint Joseph's Day, March 19.
Wheres that celebrated?
My birthday is tomorrow. I spend my birthday every year picking up fireworks on our beach. 🎇 🎆
happy early bday!!
Happy early birthday! My birthday is next friday and I've never done fireworks 😅
Happy birthday! 🎇🎆
@Emma Schein Thank you so much! 😊
@Ranichi Kudo • 13 years ago Happy early birthday to you and thank you so much! 😊
I’ve been watching the Science Channel for a while now! I enjoyed their content!! As such, I made my own sci-fi/futurist channel!!!
Are you gonna make more videos?
I did an all-nighter for this
The close up fireworks scene or am i wrong?
Imagining the world without our current entertainments and comfort, fireworks must've been something like something to be worshipped
Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸 💥 💥
I can't believe I'm starting to listen to this channel now after one video: Balls.
HAVE A HAPPY 4TH OF JULY, EVERYONE
I liked the halloween themed intro and how they used the cork screws as skeletons
First aired November 2, 2002.
how is the technician not scared? there's clearly no one else in the room with him when he makes this firework.
Probably used to it
Instant death is less scary, I think.
Very steady hands, and likely has a ton of experience which im sure includes accidents.
now I wonder when they will do people..
😳
When a man loves a woman...
xtube
this is awesome stuff learning how fireworks are made
This is the how it’s made I grew up on right here
At fifty years old i still spend thousands on fireworks each year
Excellent
They're a real blast!!
I make my own at home and it’s still nice to watch these types of videos.
how do u make them
I'm surprised at the amount of plastics used. Most Indian fireworks are fully cardboard, paper etc.
The music sounds like you're beating the shit out of a xylophone with a digderidoo
I think the reason why this is handmade is to prevent any accident of it blowing up just like those firework factories
Remember kids, always light a firecracker and close your fist around it. This is very important.
how it’s made was my favorite show
I love how the dude slowly making the fireworks, just to show us how it's work
"What's a 4th of July celebration without fireworks?"
A fucking quiet night of sleep! People do this all the time in the city even though it's illegal.
Every. Single. Year.
Such an old episode haven’t seen it in a good 3+ years
who "dislikes" a HIM vid? like wut
Good to know
If you didn't read anything in the title, the bizarre background music is a dead giveaway this is a How It's Made episode.
Dam the outside of the fireworks shop looks like a dam consintration camp!
What is a "consintration" camp? Do you not have a spell checking on your device? Concentration is the correct spelling.
Nice.
Brooks T. Moore...the OFFICIAL narrator of this show
Would have been more interesting to see how Fireworks are mass produced.
fireworks company: congrats u're hired!
My ass: smoking cigarette at the first day working
Result: death by a thousand colorful explosions
wish we could have fireworks year round not just new years and fourth
The music makes it feel like I’m watching a video from 2006
Gotta love it 😆
Idk if your being serious or not but they just re uploaded
I'm trying to find the song name.
Yes, indeed. Another brand name literally that no one has ever heard of.
People:skips
Me:watches all the video
It starts with chemicals, and you'd better know a little basic chemistry, because some chemicals used in pyrotechnics don't play nice with others.
Isn't that the point? XD
What's a 4th of July celebration without fireworks?
Me, in California where fireworks are illegal: less jail time
I think he's literally spilled every single different thing he touched, lol!
0:40 Thought that was gonna be a crappy 1 line of Rushmore...
They 100% aren't scooping black powder from non anti static Tupperware...
That's smokeless powder, not black. You can tell because it's in pellets.
I didn't realize fireworks were that large.
Depends what kind but the ones that pros tend to use for shows are pretty big yeah. Standard fireworks for public use are usually like the size of a tenis ball in my experience.
Happy new year : goodness’s ⚡️
Good celebration.
Respect this relations scientist uncle .
When I was a kid, I used to make bombs and M80 firecrackers until I blew myself up. I had a working knowledge of chemicals and how fireworks are created. I really wish in a way, I could have been a professional in the firework business, like the guy in the video
did you die?
What happened when you blew yourself up??
U still alive?
I got a Yoimiya ad before this
We need the og intro like the blowtorch and the spring
that is very very dangerous job God bless him
Science is cool!!!
Fantastic!
How fireworks are made:
*IT ALL STARTS WITH A CREEPER-*
Fantastisch, toll !
Gandalf has entered the chat 🧨✨️🌌
And this is a big reason why all the fish, water and soil in america and other firework addicted places are full of micro plastics lol
I feel like I'm having a stroke listening to this background music
i fall asleep to these videos

fairlyliterary not necessarily
@@sambenao7 it was a joke lol I know it's not always the case
It's the fourth of July rn
finally, an episode thats not about food
Pretty labor intensive..... I wonder how much the one firework costs.. $$
That one was medium sized. Thats probably 30 or 40. (I'm just guessing of course).
lol you should see how they're made in China. No plastic casings- it's all paper and skilled labor. Ball shells are even more labor intensive than this, same for cakes, fountains, roman candles etc. The latter is loaded by hand one shot at a time!
@@kidray7611 hohooh no, a 4" shell like this would most likely come in a case of 30-40 for less than 100$, not available to the public ofc
