if it was glass made by a volcano it would be called obsidian.. and if there was obsidian that color, the rockhound and collector world would shit themselves.. this is NOT volcanic glass at all in any way... this is called slag glass, and its the leftovers from smelting metals. some can be super cool
@@captng no, lets be real they put that up there to trick people cuz volcanic glass sounds cooler then slag glass. Its just some worthless AI dump content that only serves to money grub
Forget the perfect sphere ones, I want one of the bumpy one they showed as they ground them into the spheres. That was much more aesthetically pleasing to me.😍
Yes. These peopke are doomed to a miserable early death. The masks are purely for appearances sake, completely useless against the razor-sharp dust particles.
It does say that, but the title is wrong. It's slag glass, from a furnace. Still really cool looking. When I first glanced at it, I thought it was some kind of meat, from something huge, like Jurassic Park actually happened and they were going to make brontosaurus burgers lol.
Amazing unintentional ASMR, the sound of the hammer gently shattering the glass. 🤩 The look of this material reminds me of the Philosopher's Stone from Harry Potter.
it is not real, if it was Osibian it would be worth millions ££ $$, that size has and never will be found, a big bit is the size of a tin of pop and that would be worth thousands of ££ $$
@@stupitdog9686 That'd be a lot more work, pouring a bunch of separate dollops. Also, the workers are very good at cutting and fracturing it to size. And the leftover chunks just get rinsed off and tossed back into the furnace for the next batch.
Are the workers well paid? Are they working in safe conditions? Do they have a medical and retirement plans? Are they in danger of any rock inhalation? Is this a type is slave labor that pays minimum wage? You know… the important questions.
@@vginsprdsobepr9698Ummm...we don't actually care. Do you know why? Take a look at the title of the video again and take a guess. You only get one because one is all you need...
They won’t stay healthy. Look at the useless silly masks - just cosmetic. They are constantly breathing in razor sharp dust. It will stay in the deepest part if their lungs forever, causing more and more scar tissue until they can barely breathe at all.
This looks like the old slag glass used in Tiffany lamps and valuable items from the 1900s+. Not sure if it’s still in production/imported for lampshades or stained glass. I guess there’s a demand for ppl putting large red balls in their garden?
This was how native people tapped obsidian to make stone tools and arrow heads. Knapping the stone at the right places and the pieces come off razor sharp. I learned that from reading "Clan of the Cave Bear". Jondular was a stonesman. He made all the weapons and cutting tools.

@@blacktiger995 I think she's referring to them using hammers to pre-shape the blocks into rough spheres. It would be similar to flint knapping, but I agree the glass does not have the same fracturing patterns as obsidian or stone.
That may have been the most dangerous foundry work i've ever seen. The accident rate must be astronomical. At least in the U.S. were not TRYING to kill our workers
Yes, it ps blood-red can remind you just how many people have died from breathing in the microscopic glass dust that will keep cutting their lungs forever. This is deadly work.

Should make those size changing tables that spin left to expand larger and then twist left making the dinning piece smaller and more compact….24000$ is the asking price for regular thanksgiving table that’s made of wood but one solid piece or possibly stain glass wise
Came back to my computer half way through this video and thought they were making soccer balls out of the glass balls. Adidas new strategy for breaking ankles.
People will find these in thousands of years to come & put them down to being religious artefacts just as we do with ancient findings today lol 🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧
I don't know how so many people operate loud electrical equipment without any ear protection. Since I have made it mandatory for me to have ear protection in when operating loud equipment, I can't use one without it. It's just too loud and I don't like it.
The only thing volcanic about this video is the life-threatening cases of pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis that these guys are all gonna get.
I am wondering can we have some of those type of crystals can you ship some of those crystals over here? I'm from USA. I'd like to call her something out of those crystals there's chunks of ones

We have slags in the UK but they are promiscuous women that are in our town centres every weekend! 🙏🏾
I like to call malachite glass
man i saw another clip where that "volcano glass" is made in some factory

There are some amazing skills here and just as many frightening safety issues.
Yes. These peopke are doomed to a miserable early death. The masks are purely for appearances sake, completely useless against the razor-sharp dust particles.
Adidas doesn't care about safety, only that they get their products made as cheaply as possible.
Yet these corporations charge an Arm and a Leg for these products…stupid people keep buying them!
Of course there are safety issues! This is a third world country who can’t afford to be safe producing a rare craft.
This volcanic glass would make a beautiful bath or dining table.
Or a nice coffee table.
@ yes indeed!
What makes you believe it’s volcanic?😂

Could you imagine all the glass splinters and cuts that those first guys have to deal with! 😳
It's so beautiful. What great work and skill. Looks dangerous. That guy rounding out that rock...I worried about his hand slipping into the blade.
The title should read - "Skilled Artisans at work!"
flintknappers dream right there! That job takes some balls!
These guys have a lot of balls to be posting content like this.
...I'll show myself out.
Les techniques et la dextérité des asiatiques me laisse chaque fois sans voi😧👍👍🇨🇵x.
They’re unique red balls that come from volcanic glass. Pretty amazing!
It’s slag from industrial metal forging. That’s why “volcanic” is on quotes.
it is not real, if it was Osibian it would be worth millions ££ $$, that size has and never will be found, a big bit is the size of a tin of pop and that would be worth thousands of ££ $$
I love the sounds as much as seeing these guys skillfully working. In addition, it puts me in mind of the AXN’s logo 😊
What an amazing material. There must be more uses for it
supposedly surgical instruments are still made from obsidian ( sharpest natural object)
@@josephno1347 It's not obsidian, it's just regular glass cast in big chunks.
@jerrysstories711 I guess that's what the quotes meant on "volcanic"
@@jerrysstories711 Why would they do that, then smash it down to useable lumps? WNJ cast it in useful chunk sizes?

Che meraviglia le campane!!! E che suono fantastico!!!!! 😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏
How beautiful ,it’s crazy that something so scary turns into incredible beauty
I would love to know more; i.e., what are they used/sold for?, what is the "rock"?, where are these made?, where do they go from here?
decorative, the rock is slag, from what i dont know can be alot, from smelting iron all the way to glassmaking just impurities
It's slag glass.

The most beautiful balls I have ever seen
Nohomo?
Giggity! :P
Haha 😂
" That's what she said" ....Michael Scott
Wow - handmade adidas footballs and box-springs, too
Someday, future generations will only have shards as resources for these beautiful rocks.
The sun will expand and destroy the Earth before the core cools enough for volcanic activity to stop. I think future generations will be fine.
But we won't be short of rocks LOL.
I think they are synthetic “volcanic” flavored rock-ey spheres. Sounds like marketing language to me.
You’re stupid, it’s man made glass.
It’s just slabs of Slag glass man made!!
'Great Balls of Fire' ! 😊 UK.
Wow! Such a lot of handwork that goes into one soccer ball. Same with the mattresses. The volcanic glass is stunning.
It is not volcanic glass
Yeah. Never knew how they were made. Seems like a lot of work.

Amazing. I didn't even know such material existed.
Obsidian is what it’s called . It’s usually black in color .
@@judithwalker8682 But this color is very unusual
It's not volcanic and it's not obsidian.
Geologists and archeologists 10 000 years from now when they find all these perfect glass spheres 🤔
They'll say aliens from outer space did it.
@@neillouise7533 😂😂😂😂 just what I was thinking
Perfect and made in china do not fit in same sentence
Ahh weeee ins aweeeins yep aliens did it
I wonder if the 'waste' can be remelted and poured into casts for making still more spheres.
you know that guy who makes obsidian arrowheads with a deer antler? somebody tag him bc we need his expertise here 😂
That's slag glass not volcanic
Well they do say “volcanic” so maybe the quotation marks mean “slag” 😂

Will be more useful for table tops rather than just balls
These will make some beautiful arrowheads
Glad to see where my old jeans go. So glad they polish glass balls.
Instead of your balls!!😅😂🤣😅
Talk about back breaking work!
That may have been the most dangerous foundry work i've ever seen. The accident rate must be astronomical. At least in the U.S. were not TRYING to kill our workers
Bullshit, you kill your workers by default, like every other nation. Do you know the word "pesticides"?
unless you try and claim health insurance
3:00 The promotion test for this job is, who ever has the most fingers at promotion time, gets he promotion to polish
Hand finished balls definitely worth the effort Real human sweat and passion in those balls .
That's what she said!!
What variety of obsidian is this! Stunning color! Or is this not considered obsidian?
Ah, red orbs that every boy loves.
Video này tuyệt quá , lần đầu tiên tôi được xem những quy trình cong nghệ sx ra những sản phẩm mà hiện diện trong đời sồng .
Bên mình trong Đà Nẵng cũng chế tác loại đá này .Tui cũng đã mua những quả cầu này về trưng bày vì nó rất đẹp .
How do you order from them?
Looks delicious!
Where can I purchase the volcanic glass? Those are beautiful pieces!
What is the chemical makeup of this red obsidian? I have only ever seen black. Is this like a red malachite?
Is it safe to touch the red glass with bare hands?
Amazing wonderful people
Magnifique...😮ça me rappelle les nougats de mon enfance dans les fêtes foraines...🎉🎉😢😢
That’s a lot of bowling balls.😎
These crafts should be shown and celebrated more. Too many crafts are disappearing. Sad 😔
What are these, are they soccerballs or maybe basketballs?
Ido wish they would talk and give us some information so we have some idea what's going on
Who where when how do you find these glass balls?
Don't they understand The Sphere ,bowling ball shape isn't selling well
This video clearly cost an arm and a leg to produce !!
Ohhh.. 😮😮😮❤❤❤ qué hermoso 💕😍
I would love to have one of these orbs. Beautiful
Yes, it ps blood-red can remind you just how many people have died from breathing in the microscopic glass dust that will keep cutting their lungs forever. This is deadly work.
In 5,000 years archaeologists dig some of these up and will speculate about what these were used for, probably never guessing at their actual use
Kinda like the people who buy them. Throw it on my property? Okay 🤷♂️

Also like this stuff is 100% slag glass. It comes out of an industrial furnace, it’s not coming straight out of the earth looking like that.
wait... the thumb nail matches the what we actaully see? nice
They need to hook up water to that saw. My god that would take so much misery out of cutting that glass
That glass is breathtakingly beautiful! God does good work

They should make chef knife sets too, good money.
Looks like they have quite a bit the back stock in that field

Very pretty
Now I have an uncanny desire to play steamworld dig
I guess this is the rolling ball on the fountain
2:50 To me it was at its most beautiful at this point. You could shellac it and send it to me before you make it perfectly round I love it right here
Where is this place I’d love to order a big slab of it

"Volcanic" is just the name of that glass. You can see how it is folded up when soft.

That would make a gorgeous ruby colored ring. I didn't know volcanic glass was red! Learn something new every day!
It's not from a volcano, it's just colored glass cast in big chunks.
It isn't, this stuff is man made.
The things humans make eh? Amazing. Genius.
I never knew how they made many of those things. Very interesting.
Очень круто! Спасибо!
Is that the new factory from Adidas ?)
Get a RUclips store to sell your glass!
Where do they make it ?
What’s the name of stone? Where is that?
Makes me want to go out and buy some red candy. LOL
I thought it was big fish
Tried to find them on the i ternet to order one, but not easy. 😏
Ok kids. Today we are making little rocks out of big rocks. 😊
