    Really entertaining and what's even better is that you usually learn something in the process.
    Apart from that, after all the interesting things that have already been in the chamber (polystyrene cups, eggs, glow sticks etc.) I would be interested to see how a piece of normal wood behaves. So a lightwood type like balsa, a softwood type like pine or fir and a hardwood type like beech or oak.

    I love how the ampule cracking gets more and more violent the higher the pressure. I was secretly hoping to see them start splitting open and spraying everywhere. But I knew it was doubtful because of their construction. Those things are next to indestructible to everything except slicing/piercing.

    5:51 Your fun fact about original Star Wars trilogy and glow sticks is incorrect, they used reflective tape on a spinning rod that’s powered by a motor inside the hilt, the stage lights behind the camera shone its light and the camera picks up the reflectiveness, its also why the lightsaber flickers during the obi wan kenobi fight with Vader on the Death Star

    Glow sticks played a crucial role in the deep dive movie, Cameron's "The Abyss". A diver had to disarm an nuclear weapon at depth--but his yellow-greenish lightstick made it impossible to distinguish the color of the wire he needed to cut! That entire movie hinged on the failure of technologies operating outside their design limits. First three that come to mind: Failure of the hoist cable to detach under stress; seal failure in a submersible (provoking the immortal line, "All I need is a damn Crescent wrench!"); and the mentioned color-coding under emergency lighting. Humans also fail under stress--but a few come through.

    Where did you get the idea of the light sabers being glowsticks? In the OT they were spinning wooden dowels with reflective tape on them that produced a glowing effect on camera.

In the ST abominations they were made with reinforced electrically lighted rods to have the sabers cast light onto the wielders.

    Completely impractical but imagine having the entire chamber filled (only 1 layer from the cameras point of view) and them see if the shock of 1 going off sets off a chain reaction for all the rest. Potentially just wrapping a laying around the outside and have say a 3d printed disc or something front and back so its as rigidly connected as possible
