Michael Thurber of cdza joins Tara and Anthony as they attempt to break glass with the human voice. Will Michael's vocal cords be enough to get the job done? Watch to find out!
Experiment Tips:
- Place a straw inside the glass. When the straw starts to bounce around your voice has reached the natural frequency of the glass.
- Leaded, crystal glasses work best for this experiment because they are more delicate.
- A horn driver helps center the sound in one place.

The glass needs to contain a small flaw. The shattering starts with this small crack. The blemish can be too small to be seen by the naked eye.

please! i can shatter a mirror just by looking at it
finally someone else with that talent and skill!
Rad Domino AHHHHHHHHHH
Rad Domino SAMMMEEEEEE!!!!!😂

***** hello army
Can you really break glass with your voice? YUP. Look: testu.be/1grlEYT
AWSOME!!!!! you guys need some slowmo cameras!!!
That was pretty good. The ability to impact objects at a distance. Sound waves, like magic.
Now you guys can all apply to join the Kwisatz Haderach's army!
Karim Ussene Yup they need The Slow Mo guys..
i think i can beacuse i have 3kw PA system
lol they spent so much money to break a glass with a speaker, when it has been done by a kid attempting it on youtube soley with his own voice.

My mother would practice singing hit the same frequency as the door bell and make the door bell ring XD
Wow XD
+Bailie Spangler not the same concept, but good try.
What do you mean by the same concept? They were using their voice to mess with physical objects, so I just wanted to tell a story about my mother using her voice to mess with physical objects.
Bailie Spangler Theres a difference between triggering electromagnetic forces by singing and breaking something by singing at the same frequency.
it wasn't an electric doorbell...
But can you break it without all that fancy equipment and just use your voice?
+Jonathan L yes if you can reach or excede the normal vibration of the object ,i hope you know that all matter is always un a constant random motion' then you can breaak it
+im that niqqa#YRN No its fake
no its not from experience and theory,as i said earlier there is brownian which states that all matter exists in a constant random motion at the molecular level ,whaat happens when you heat a tin glass like that it cracks if not break,because the increase in temp made the particles to vibrate faster than the normal rate,same applies to sound if it can make it vibrate faster than normal
only in the matrix world m!!!!1
Opera singers use that as training. Yes, its possible but also extremely difficult for commoners like us.
seriously this guy's scream at 3:00 would have broken the glass in the first place without amplification :3
"RAAAHHH!! WHY WONT YOU DIE??"
Anthony is so fucking adorable.
Just think, I'm pretty sure there is a sound high enough to possibly turn us into a pile of goo.
Pretty sure it would be a really low bass sound that would turn people into goo.
KidOnTheNet you ever listened to dubstep :/
yeah, brendon urie
Hella Awesome yes bitch
Yep. And a sound to make us shatter.
What is wrong with people? Yelling to the poor glass
Who tf cares abt it bro its litro an experiment
what a 'smashing' success!
To me, it's a failure. They were supposed to break the glass with their voice, not with a powerful amplifier. Too easy this way, and doesn't prove anything because it's OBVIOUS that such a strong vibration from a powerful amplifier with a directional speaker would make it. The whole point of the experiment should have been doing it with their voice and no electric amplification at all. Maybe they could have used the reverb of an auditorium to achieve some degree of amplification to their "natural" decibel level. ;)
Quite weak imo
Cracking joke
They didn't smash it
collectivecadenza i just "broke" your joke
warning, many glass were harmed in the making of this video. viewer direction is advised
Lmao
+Co Quach this is glass cruelty.. we need to generate awareness. These people are heartless how can they do that! #savetheglass
*discretion
seems legit
Who came here from absolutely nothing? Like seriously, why is this in my recommended?
Cause someone else, who recently viewed a video that you viewed, also looked at this one. So youtube is like, hey he likes the same first video as person B, so show him the next video that person B looked at recently. It's diabolical Matrix shit, and it gets way more sophisticated than that...
Mythbusters did it with only their voice, no amplifiers or equipment.
Hard Science is amazing. It makes Science more accessible, and really really fun. Awesome work. ^-^
Donald Trump: I'll reward $10,000,000 whoever break a security glass with their voice.
I love you THIS much👊
thaankk you sirrrrrrr
I MEAN MAM SORRY
2:43 "so we can make sure that the pitch is over a 100 decibels"
The glass didn't break at first because pure crystal wine glasses are the ones you can break with nothing but voice. This is why they had to use amplifiers.
2:06 "Ahh!!!, Why won't you die?!?!?!" 😂
Christina Truong LOL
Anthony's laugh @ 3:28 = Mario 64 lava death lolllll
There was a lil kid who was able to shatter the glass by himself. Lol he must have a voice of an angel XD
RIP headphone users
I have tinnitus now.
Reading the comments before watching the video, thank you for probably saving my hearing.
lol
You are four years older. Hows your life like
Yeah but I'm still alive
my mistake hearing this from headphone, RIPS my ear drum, but the vision of Tara compensates me.
I was looking for a terribly produced video with low quality but I found a well produced video with OK quality.
no this video was wack. they cheated
and they were talking major bullshiy because you dont need to have 100 fucking decibels to break glass. your voicr just need to resonate with the glass
Guys... this was done by Mythbusters years ago, thanks for the effort though
Saying Mythbusters did it is like saying South Park did it. They've been around for a long time. At this point, they've done so much they're desperate to find new material. So when someone does it for a scratch of the same budget, it's fun.
GeekFurious Except Mythbusters did it without all this fancy equipment. Just the human voice.
Yup
You guys should do this again, but film it with one of those phantom high speed cameras...
RIP headphones
+SuperLoyx I had a feeling this would be loud, So I turned it right down lolol
+Anon Ymous in the arms of the angel fly away from here
SuperLoyx ikr and he sounded like mario at the end
4 minutes and 17 seconds of my life I can't get bek
Shoulda captured it in high speed, I would have liked to see it break on it's own from sound, at massive frames per second.
I love their reactions! Such great hosts. Also want to know what the music in the background during the glass shattering was.
+Joseph DiPierno same here
2:04, favorite part of the video!
Richard Hammond did it more elegantly in Engineering Connections. But nice to see it done in a different way. I really like Hard Science.
"It's unbreakable. It's Bruce Willis."
Wow.
Honestly I'm an Opera singer and thats just wrong to cheat on so many levels. You want to prove your voice can break the glass then actually prove it with your voice not with a devise that directs the sound right into the glass and instead of using one that already has a crack use a new one. I have done it and it is possible. You just have to hit the right note. And if you cheat then your not setting a good example for those who want to break glass with their voice. Your showing them an easy way out.
Ameria Victoria Horrocks Thomas honestly, no one cares
Whether no one cares or not, you clearly do as you would not have commented otherwise.
Ameria Victoria Horrocks Thomas whether*
Do not correct me for that is not how it is spelled for if you read it again you will see it was spelled wright.
Wow! You edited you comment so amazing... also right. You need to go back to middle school and learn how to spell. Like god damn you should really know the difference between wright and right
Great indian classical singers were routinely singing raagas to make clouds rain and ragas to light lamps
Raag megh malhar for bringing rain
Raag Deepak to make an unlit lamp burst into fire
Just watched a 10 year old effortless break glass. Yet 3 grown adults struggle
I believe my neighbour's singing can
the end is what true joy looks like
Great video! The scientists are speaking so rapidly, however, that it is difficult for my exceptional needs students to process what they are saying unless I stop the film and translate. Thanks for putting this video out. We need more.
Where's the slowmoguys when you want them to record this!
Exactly, they should do a collab
can you break bulletproof glass like that
no
psh
Not like that, but if you could produce ENOUGH sound you could.. But that would take a lot.. idk if it's within our technological reach or not. Probably if we REALLY wanted to build it.
Female Singers Be Like: Ohhhhhhhhh "Glass Brakes"
Me: "uses hammer" =3 I broke it
Lol
+Epic Emo O_O HOW DID YOU DO THAT XD
Male singers can do it too
I'm amazing at this i don't need special equipment or my voice to break a glass, I just do it with my hand and floor in fact I'm so good at it I do it by mistake and that takes skill.
2:05 The struggle when you're playing video games and the boss you despised is still alive
0:12 I love how the music just drops out when Michael is introduced.. :D
Can't believe these guys broke a glass with just that. I watched a documentary wherein a male with very high vocal range and a soprano coloratura from the philippine madrigal singers tried to use their voices to break a glass..They tried singing directly through the glass, used amplifiers to make the sound louder and a device that directly puts the sound to the glass. They tried evreything but didn't work tho.
I've never seen someone so exited about breaking glass
it's weird looking at glass break by itself. lol. BTW I KNOW IT'S BY SOUND AND VIBRATION
Its A sign Of Ugliness xD
I shouldn't have played this video in front of my grandpa's old glasses collection... XD
What happened? Did they actually break?
Nah, not really =) but kinda unbearable for his ears...
now kids, when it comes to videos like this, YOU WILL DIE FROM WEARING HEADPHONES.
They SMASHED this challenge!
That scream at 3:00 so happy.
2:04 when you’re fighting a video game enemy that refuses to let you win
2:57 R.I.P headphone users
TheBettaShow I don't use headphones thank goodness!
TheBettaShow hahaha..that was funny scream
Direct the sound waves directly into the glass
takes a few minute
2 boards hot melt the glass base to the "L" BOARDS WHICH can also be hot melted together.
You don't need that much decibel to break it. You need only the right frequency to obtain the resonant condition.
Why the repost?
its funny because my physics class just finished going over the physics of this today
What is the resonant frequency of the human eyes. It would be cool to just blow someone’s eyes with my voice
It is not only a matter of "db", it is a matter of "hrz". Find the tune the glass vibrate, "sing" in the same tune, and ye won't need so much power of amplification to brake it.
On Mythbusters they did it without an amp...
All I can ever think about when I see these is that Alexander Pope quote:
"A little learning is a dangerous thing;
drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring"
Honestly any sound loud enough and direct like that would break it. It's just vibrations through the atmosphere. yes the resonance of the glass itself helps, but how much?
does this mean that you can't actually break a glass without using all that equipement (speakers, microphones etc)??
My friend broke a pint glass with Run DMC - Jump Around. The trumpet at the start was too much for it.
2:03 AAAAGGGGHHH!! WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!
Matthew TheMaster me when I see gay people
The Real Damon Jackson excuse me that's really offensive to gay people
Jacksepticeye would do very good.
Can you please tell me how to find the kind of glasses that will break? I bought a box at Walmart and then found out they are not actually Chrystal. So it can get expensive trying to buy ones that won’t break. Please help me find some, thank you.
At 2:56 if u double tap the right then back(if u want) its perfectly synchronized
2:12 absolutely no chance that frequency is coming outta the tweeter. Crossover is usually well over 2kHz. Put that thing in front of the woofer and you stand a much better chance.
Some Kid Did It Before XD.
Yay for CDZA!
I shattered a glass by checking if it would resonate with my kitchen floor. It worked really good !
i love the color-correction *-*
Apparently they don't get that when we say "break the glass with your voice" we mean just by singing at it, not by bringing your Caltech equipment to help you along. Otherwise you might as well just use a hammer.
You guys rock. Love the science behind this.
so much fun! I think you should have called in the Mythbusters on this one.
You have to match to resonant frequency of the glass and sing it loudly enough to basically vibrate the glass to death
Would this work with noise too? White noise is all frequencies at the same time and roughly the same level with constant variation. If you had a handful of glasses on a table, could you break all of them at one time with white noise projected at 100db?
Things you will need for this experiment :
-A glass
-Your voice
.
Well done guys that was good check out Mythbusters they managed to do that to and did it with an unamplified voice
Awesome Micheal is on this
the title is false then, is with your voice...not your voice plus a bunch of amplifiers things. which make it silly.
Female advanced self defence:
In case of emergency, scream at glass object to weaponize it.
I have a question, can a conch shell break a glass if I tried hard?
I watched this with the volume down just in case. Didn't want all the glass in my house to start shattering.
YOU NEED MORE SUBS! IM RECOMMENDING U GUYS TO EVERYONE I KNOW!
"Lets break everybody's windows!"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaand, I think this experiment is over"
2:04 when you're playing against a heavyweight fighter online
You can break glass with your voice, meanwhile ear rape memes can destroy my ears easily.
If I sung inside that room we would all be full of glass shards.
Does anyone know the song at 3:03?
I played this so loud that my window shattered
I want the slo-mo guys to film that.
My little brother screamed so loud that all I could hear was a white noise. I was downstairs.
How do you guys not have 7 million subscribers
I wanna do this so bad, I could probably make a sonic cannon with this info
Anthony, that's an awesome shirt. Where did you get it! hahaha
Should have yelled 'Fus RO DA!' Woulda saved alot of time ;)
They almost all went deaf when they started cheering without turning off the speaker after the glass break
Let's break some Windows!
Me: YEAH
