9:42 metal shards in shower head. They are solder from copper plumbing. If you overheat the pipes while soldering, long strands like this can form on the inside. Definitely a sign of improper soldering, if that’s what they are.
Thank you! At least someone is giving an explanation
Came to say the same thing, I'm surprised there was no answer given in the video, but it's certainly solder.
@@christinakohl6111 You're welcome. Truth be told, I did look it up! Just because I was curious and my dad was a plumber. 😁👍
This is the only thing I care about. This is the thumbnail and now you gave me an answer...
Thank you, I think. Thank you very much.
@@Ifinishedyoutube Nice one and welcome!
Fun fact, Ambergris is used to make VERY expensive perfumes.
Indeed. Basically rich people are putting whale vomit on there face which is honestly suiting seeing as most rich people are greedy and corrupt.
Perfumes that are applied with a tiny glass wick as a raw oil
they used to put ambergris in icecrem now they put it in with like flaovering from a lab
It's not gum?🤔🤢
Eau de Toilette (literal)
Robin really is the type to buy a worn down, dysfunctional piece of defunct technology but leave a 5000 dollar piece of ambergris on the shore smh
In fairness, old tech is cool to have, whereas the only reason to collect the rock is to sell it off. The rock is only worth $5k if you can find someone willing to pay $5k for it. Until then, it's worth bugger all. It's the same reason pawn shops will only give you a dollar for Yu-Gi-Oh or MtG cards supposedly worth tens of thousands of dollars.
@@torgranael Or, or, buying japanese xboxes to refurb and sell in american or european markets, while you are capabilt of making a profit, you're just gonna be cornered with a bunch of hacked consoles getting dusty till someone wants to buy it.
The XB360 market is kinda just, dying, nobody wants to buy the console unless they want to hack it now, the same holds true with an OG xbox or even early gen xbox ones. I got plans to tear down 3 xboxes and see if I can mount them into one PC shell, but I'm gonna hold off till I got more expertise.
You could also make your own fragances as a hobby or side hustle... Collecting the ingredients yourself.
splatoon pfp spotted ‼️‼️
to his defense, he didn't actually know what it was and how much it's worth till AFTER he said it.
0:52 Nilered viewers immediately knew it was bromine
I feel called out lmao, that’s the only reason I knew
Same
Thats most likely not bromine, its nitrogen dioxide. When you cool it down it turns into dinitrogen tetroxide, which is clear.
Its used to demonstrate chemical equilibrium.
Can confirm lmao
Bro i felt so smart knowing what that is. Thank you nilered
Ambergise is NOT whale poop. It's whale vomit and it's used to make perfumes and colognes.
Technically, they can pass it out of both sides of their body, although it is often vomited.
I would never have guessed whale vomit would smell good.
@@pandanouk Reminds me of Futurama.
"WHO SMELLS LIKE WHALE HORK!"
I thought it was the whale equivalent of like a tonsil stone.
It's bile. If you have a horrible stomach flu, you might puke it up. If you have a horrible stomach flu, you might poop it out. Depends. It's... not good tasting.
I don't think the brown gas was bromine. Bromine is usually stored as a liquid. I think it's dinitrogen tetroxide which can be used to demonstrate the effects of heat and pressure on the chemical equalibrium of a reaction. In this case there are two states it can be in. Dinitrogen tetroxide (dark brown, similar colour to bromine) and nitrogen dioxide (yellowish colour). So yeah. Not nearly as bad as bromine but still horrible. Oh btw it's pronounced Bro-Mean, not Bro-Mein
Nitrogen Dioxide is a very nasty and dangerous gas.
Was it a liquid? Robin said that he would've thought that it's poopy water, but this still could be gas
@@Nataniahuahu no it was a gas. Liquid bromine is way darker. It was very clearly a gas.
I pronounce it "bromine", instead of "bromein" or "bromean".
@@feha92 it's pronounced with a long i sound. Like a double e or a y at the end if a word.
The cage is definitely a bale feeder, some herders would pull these being a horse or tractor to get a herd to follow to places they are not familiar with
I feel like Robin's brain is getting wrinklier
DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN, TRUST ME
this is a… strange comment…
@@Flora568they’re saying they feel as if robin is getting smarter by learning all this
its so wrinkley it became smooth again
It's making more conmections.
0:41 i immdiately went "NONONONONO PUT THAT BACK DOWN DUDE THAT'S BROMINE!"
Yeah, I physically recoiled
SAME LOL
It's nitrogen dioxide most likely; when it's cooled down it dimerizes to N2O4, which is clear; it's used to demonstrate equilibrium
@@chiaraj1003same here 😂
2:20 That's just the door to the button-eye world from Coraline. Would not recommend going through it, unless you want fake versions of your family trying to sew buttons in your eyes.
I had my uncle help me install a cat door to my bedroom. Both me and my cat have high anxiety. She wants an easy escape at any time, but i need the door closed to feel safe. Its an excellent compromise.
Same♥️
Based on how you're willing to work together and compromise, I say your relationship with your cat is a lot healthier than most relationships I know...
5:21 - As someone who enjoys cooking but is not a professional, I can tell you this sink is most likely designed to be used for preparing vegetables. The center is for chopping, peeling, etc, while the sink is to quickly and conveniently rinse them off. It would also be useful for draining blood off meats, or other meat-fluids while cutting. Have you ever put your cutting board across the sink? Same concept. Rinse and prep your meal ingredients while saving space. Hence why it's called a prep sink.
Honestly, thats just incredibly inconvenient. Just make it into a full sink at that point. As a cook in a restaurant, its just another compartment you’d have to clean off of debris at the end of prep. Just add scraps to a bowl and compost
Why not make the center bit detachable ya get a full sink and the circle of counter
Tiny doors were for heating-oil deliveries!
Long snurggly hose from pumper-truck to basement: tiny doors let it through without having to keep the big doors open.
That also makes sense
I doubt that. Seems to me that it would be difficult to get the nozzle through and the door would need to be open for the delivery guy to go in and out. Most homes would have had a pipe from outside directly to the room with the oil tank that connected to the tank.
As someone who lives in a house that has oil heat, I can say that you're wrong, there's a pipe going from the tank in the basement up to the outside that the oil truck connects a hose to. They never need to bring the hose inside at all
7:41 “came the yawn”
9:38 “one eye closed here”
k
The little door is clearly a passage to a mirrored version of our world wear you have a separate set of parents with button eyes and everything is perfect
2:45, that's there in case a wizard shrinks you down, you don't have to climb all the way up the door to jerryrig a contraption to twist the doorknob and open the door. It's big enough to even fit one of their patented mini mobiles.
2:20 What I think thats for is for a mouse, the tooth mouse (the (at least spanish) different version of the tooth fairy), there exist many of those in Spain to put next to/in your door for the mouse to enter and exit the room to steal your teeth.
i think teeth mice also exist in france as well!
I don't want the mice to steal my teeth😢
@@adampindell*mouse
@@suzannevanhousen7422 well, at least it's only one.
@@llllllllemon Yep, we call it "la petite souris" (the little mouse). No need to mention teeth, everybody knows what we're talking about when we say "la petite souris". It comes, takes the tooth from underneath the pillow and leaves a coin. 🐀
1:20 *55 years ago my school had that. Put the bottom in ice water. Droplets form inside. Bromine is harvested from the sea!*
11:36 You were right the second time, Robin. The tamarind is a seedpod that looks like a big, deep green peapod, but the pulp inside is bright red in color. It’s mostly used in Indian and Mexican cooking and can be added to sauces, chutneys, and desserts. It’s also a popular addition to candies. The tamarind spoon contains a blend of tamarind, sugar, and lime-chili paste. I also saw a smack similar to a BabyBottle Pop where the pop was a mix of tamarind and sugar that you could dunk into a lime-chili pepper powder.
15:06 I thought it was a pet bath. You throw some water in there for your dog or cat, and then drain it in your own tub when they're done.
Similar thought but mine was "baby bath" since it's very shallow and short so the baby won't end up in water that's too deep or slip too far in and end up drowning
10:15 Ambergris is used in the base of fine perfumes. I learned that from Futurama.
It is also whale vomit, I don't remember how I know this I just do
Is it true you're not allowed to sell it?
Day 149 of guessing the editor.
0:10 I can hear Lancer's theme clearly, and I saw that one motion of sliding the image down after reading the caption. This was edited by Greg Zhao.
... Holy camoley mate
Ambergris is actually something whales regurgitate! It isn't used so much in modern perfume, but old perfume or very high-end brands will often still use it. It's a waxy substance that has a good smell and it's used to make the scent of a perfume stick longer on the skin, so that it doesn't just evaporate away quickly after using it. And, since it's so hard to get, being barfed up by whales, it's exceptionally expensive.
Thanks to a Nancy Drew game. I immediately thought faking a séance when I saw the table of wires.
12:25 in the victorian era they shocked people during seances to help them see pretty colors. they didn't have mini lights yet, so it was probably for the shocks.
No answer for that shower head? Was it that gross or something?
It was pieces of solder from the copper pipes. The plumber used too much and the excess created long drips as it cooled on the inside of the pipes. When the water flowed it broke them off and they collected at each fixture.
@@ericpaul4575 Thanks! I was looking in the comments just for this - incredibly weird it wasn't included in the video.
10:50 a very important component in expensive perfumes
Another possibility for the small doors is they could be intended for squirrels rather than cats. Grey squirrels were the most popular pet in the United States when that house was built.
15:00 Well, where is Haywood Banks when you need him? Oh well, I'll do it.... "YEA TOAST!"
i see you’re a person of culture. that song is hilarious 😂
5:22 It would look more useful if the sink was flipped around so the faucet was mounted on the inside of the curve so as you swing the faucet from one side to the other, the stream of water stayed in the sink instead of going from counter to sink to counter as it would in this image...
It would also look MUCH happier...the current sink looks like it's frowning at you...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
5:15 I think its a cool idea. Robin is being strangely annoyed at this. Its most likely for putting down large bowls and letting the water fill without having to hold it. Chill, Robin.
Robin seems pretty annoyed, pessimistic and petty to me most (or just a lot) of the time so this didn’t come as a surprise. Idk what’s his deal but it got me to simply stop watching Emkay for a while.
Ive always heard those tiny doors called "Faerie Doors."
10:00 ah yes, ambergris expensive and important to the perfume industry, but at the end of the day, it's just an expensive lump of whale barf.
'Liking' because it's Emkay, and why the hell not? But *loving* because Robin used the word "cattywampus".
We should all use the word 'cattywampus' more, but Robin especially so xx

0:57 Looks Like Bromine to me
14:54 love the lemon for scale
I hope that door doesn't lead to a different world with a spider woman that has buttons for eyes
2:51
Come on, that's clearly a portal to a different dimension with a talking cat and button eyes.
5:23 my best guess is it's designed to have filter-like inserts that you can slide across, so you have someone put lets say lettuce in a thing, and slot it in on the right. you slide it in front of you, to wash it, then slide it to the left so that the next person can pull it when they're ready for it, assembly line style. that's the best i've got, and i feel like that's giving a lot of credit. i can ask someone who's worked in the food industry though, they might have insight.
15:35 Not surprised that that little tub would be used for plants considering this whole tub looks like it was built in the 80s. Putting plants everywhere was IN back then alongside mauve carpet and shiny brass and glass shelves and vanities. My mom actually has such a vanity.
12:03 Looks like the table that was also a gun.
ambergris is used in perfume etc mainly because it helps the perfume actually last and not fade right away.
fun fact many emperors//kings and such fancy people in the past would eat ambergris, just in case in being in nice smell stuff wasn't weird enough haha.
7:09
Damn, I didn't expect to see an old pen from the college I graduated from :3
Whale "stuff" is used to make perfume. That's why it is 1) rare 2) expensive and 3) gross
0:50 is one of a pair used to demonstrate diffusion, one holds bromine and air, the other just bromine. You cool them down to condense the bromine, the one with just bromine refills with vapour uniformly, the one with bromine + air forms a gradient.
10:10 that thing is expensive, they hit the gold with finding.
10:58 I immediately saw those and said “cucharas de tamarindo!” I love those
The tube of bromine is used for mass spectroscopy. You use the wavelengths of light given off by a substance to identify it. It's basically how we know what distant stars are made of. Also, "did you cook the bread?" "Yes." "Well, cook it again!"
4:45 he called this house ugly. Like what?
You absolutely could run a train set or RC cars through those tiny doors, although it would become a problem if you were also opening the full-size door they're attached to. The door would need to be higher up to open with train tracks on the floor, and you'd either need cameras built-in to the cars, or to follow them into the room.
Thanks to Futurama, I now know that Ambergris is actually whale barf!
That gas is bromine a toxic gas DO NOT BREAK THE GAS! 0:46
Figured, I already heard the description and saw it and it instantly clicked
10:48 That chunk of ambergris was the first thing I recognized. The reason it smells good and it's so expensive is because it's commonly used to make perfume and cologne.
2:35 is most likely a cat door so that it can move around easier and catch rats and mice around the kitchen and the basement.
When there isn't a rodent infestation around your pantry, you just latch it.
15:30 I agree with it being an ice bucket of sorts, I didn't notice the water jets the first time he showed it. The tub armrests at that end also mean your wine/beer/etc. would be within easy reach.
13:41 refurbish it and you could be looking at probaby several grand, depending on the collector
3:11 i think these door are intentionally small to not allow the dog through.
My dad bought fake chicken eggs to trick snakes into eating them. I think he cut open a snake one time to retrieve one of the fake eggs.
3:00 idea: in a roald dahl book there was a witch who had a medicine who made you turn into a mice, someones kid turned into a mouse and the father build contraptions to help him use the doors and stuff. its probably that
Jerry finally got some security on his house ... about time !
Those bookmarks are so smart... Can't tell you how many times I've forgotten an entire chunk of a book because I got sleepy.
11:49 As a Hispanic myself I think I might know what these are let me explain They're filled with like a tajin like substance And you open them In fruity In fruity like drinks And it somewhat spices it up and gives it more Spices it up and gives it more flavor I haven't tried one For myself but my family says it's really good
The whole video is like:
"Oh, that is something not good";
*Reads the explanation*
"Oh, that is something really good."
10:58 THOSE ARE MEXICAN CANDY'S IT'S LIKE A SPICY PASTE AND THEY TASTE AMAZING IT'S NOT DRUGS LMAOOOO😭
8:31 whoa someone woke up at the wrong side of the pillow
Thumbnail? It's for Jerry, of course. Also, do you have a cat named "Tom"?
10:59 I've seen those little plastic spoons before, they look exactly like mexican candies that are sold, as plastic spoons, with the candy wrapped up on the spoon, exactly with that wrap and rubber band too. But the fact they were found in a public trash can makes me think otherwise. If I remember correctly the candy is actually a thick grainy spicy (almost cinnamon like) cream that comes in little tubes too (like airport toothpaste sized tubes). The stuff on the spoons look exactly like what I remember too, but take this with a grain of salt though cause it was a long time ago
Edit: I guess I paused to make a comment too soon
Hi there about the small doors, these were used for milk deliveries, the milkman would leave it inside and shut the door, they have a small area inside often padded, Hope this helps!
9:42, seems like you forgot the explanation for the metal shards in shower head. They are solder from copper plumbing. If you overheat the pipes while soldering, long strands like this can form on the inside. Definitely a sign of improper soldering, if that’s what they are. (I copied this from another comment that I just saw when I was writing this, but he wrote it better)
Dear God it's Coraline all over again.....
0:38 The gas is bromine. I can tell because most times bromine is put into a glass tube which then has to be melted so it cant escape.
1:53 You're thinking of a gibbet. This I can say right off the bat, is not a gibbet.
Ambergris is used to make the musk in perfumes & other scented products.
Mexican here, those spoons with reddish goop at 11:38 are a very popular kind of sweet in Mexico, they are really really sour and often mixed with chilli powder, salt and lots of sugar, if you haven't already, try them! we love them :v
Whale poo is used for perfumes and stuff, its expensive because its rare for it to get like that
Just find crazy that Clement Ader, after dabbling in telephone based zoom calls, just casually made the first true aeroplane 💀
1:40 is not Bromine. Bromine is way too toxic for nearly any school to keep it in the labs (at least in my country). It is probably NO2/N2O4. When NO2 undergoes temperature changes it reacts with itself to form N2O2, this demonstrates the principle of equilibrium which is taught in most chemistry classes. You can see the gas inside change from brown (N2O4) to colourless (NO2) as the temperature changes, temperature effects the internal pressure which changes the dominant reaction.
4:48 hold up that sink is backwards. Usually the faucet of a sink can swivel, well you'd want it on the other side so teh water always goes into the sink.
ambergris is used in high end perfume... it's a rare waxy or oily things that form inside of a whale's stomach, obtaining it is kinda difficult so that is why it's so expensive.
This whole video gave me a nostalgic sweet, salty European vibess. Like shops by the shore. And Airbnb’s from 207
0:52 that is probably bromine I am not 100% sure it is bromine but if it is that should not be broken at all without proper protection gear because I think it is poisonous
3:34 those look way smaller though feels like OP just got the size wrong that looks like 2 inches to me. Like compared to the floor and the dirt on the floor that does not seem like "cat sized"
10:50 its because its used in a lot of perfumes and colognes to add background scent.
2:23 bro found jerry's crib
2:11 nooo dont call them insults they're into that
The model railroad thing isn’t all that likely. You wouldn’t be able to open the door without royally ducking up the tracks.
11:43 as someone who lived in Mexico for half my life I can confirm, can also maybe find some at convince stores.
The bromine was absolutely opened and resealed in schools, at least 10 years ago.
But by the techs in a completely different area before and after the demo.
The metal shards in the shower head are solder. I’m betting this genius tried to solder over an actual hole in the copper line and it just kept falling through so he kept on soldering the bejesus out of it until he just had a mound on it and he hoped it held.
The value of the ambergris is due to it being used for expensive perfumes.
EmKay, I took AP chem in highschool. Yes, they do teach kids how to use ampules (torching the glass tube open/shut). At least where I'm from
Its Coraline all over again
whale excrement is a wrong term as its barf not shit. its so expensive because its so rare and hard to find and used in highly expesive parfumes. that taco thing? before hearing the answer i guess its a napkin holder
If that smaller tub has a drain, Its probably for bathing infants and small toddlers. Maybe even pets.
That's funny you watched the video and posted a comment highlighting how you didn't understand the video. 😂😂😂😂
0:05 I’m not toooo sure but they could be for hoisting things like lumber over your shoulder for extra padding
2:19 I was thinking it was a cat door. When I think about it, it is pretty small for a cat (though a cat could fit through, they wouldn't wanna)
I wanna say this again: A cat could definitely fit through, no problem, but it's not a comfortable size. If it was raised off the ground it would be better.
It might be for another pet, maybe even a Chihuahua lol
Not very good for keeping Insects out though.
9:48 these aren’t metal shards. I believe they’re ice. Don’t leave your faucets dripping during winter
At least, I think. It could be anything
2:28 I think those doors are for tubes to pump out flood water.
The tubes weren’t bromine, I forget exactly what, I believe something with Nitrogen but it’s a gas that turns transparent when you super cool it because it turns into another gas
