A little while ago icspi lent us this atomic force microscope, and I want to use it, to examine my wiener (hot dog) at the nanoscale. More footage of the microscope in action Info on phase images

Over the years I've eaten a lot of candy, including a lot of extreme candies like the toe of Satan that's supposed to be super hot, or warheads that are supposed to be super sour. The only problem though, is that in my opinion they aren't very extreme because they only assault one sense at a time. What I want instead, is to make is a candy that targets everything (sour, sweet, spicy, icy, bitter, salty and umami).
Topics: Most extreme candies fail · All of the chemicals we need · Making the candy base · Mixing the dry chemicals · Tasting the capsaicin Mix · We're at the hard crack stage

In this one, I try a mushroom called chicken of the woods, and even though I hate mushrooms, this one wasn't that bad. In fact, if cooked well and with the right sauce, I could see that you could be convinced that it's chicken.

In this one, I try the electric daisy, which is a plant that contains something called spilanthol, which is believed to cause its really hard to describe and unique numbing affect.

A few days ago we received this mysterious package from the government. And to figure out what's inside, I want to pass it through our airport X-ray scanner.

With this tungsten suit that weighs over 350lbs (158kg), and weighing in at 527lbs (239kg), I'm convinced that I am the densest person on the planet.

The spray drier evaporated the ocean water at 180°C for 1h, which should have basically sanitized the salt. A little while ago we made a video on our spray drier, which turns liquids into powder, and on that video, we got a lot of comments saying to use ocean water.

So in the end, instead of fizzy ice cream, we ended up making tingly ice cream, which I still think is pretty interesting. Overall I really like the idea of fizzy ice cream, and we'll have to attempt to make it again, but use something else other than dry ice.

So we were successfully able to turn titanium gold using electricity, and all jokes aside, we didn't actually make titanium 2. The color is still from an oxide layer called "Over Voltage", which is why Reggie said that we were in no man's land.

This 80 year old corn from World War 2 is actually dangerous because of what could be growing on it and you seriously don't want to eat it.

Apparently real pearls are made of calcium carbonate, which is basically chalk, so something like muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) should react with them.

I still can't believe how well the coin turned out, and I'm relieved that it doesn't actually work in my vending machine. Note: this coin was designed by Reggie back in 2024, which is why it has that year on it.

It's crazy how much luminol makes blood glow. It lit up areas that I didn't even see the blood. These were some of coolest visuals I've ever seen with luminol.

A while ago we wanted to make our favorite foods last forever, and one important step, was to flash freeze them.

Laser technology has kind of gotten out of hand. WARNING: These lasers are absolutely not toys. They're powerful enough to cause instant blindness if not handled properly.

So today, we want to see if we can turn snacks like chips, cookies, noodles and Twinkies, into food pellets.

Head to: to streamline your business with Odoo and get 1 app for free for life, or try everything Odoo has to offer for free for 14 days, no credit card required. Everything about making food, ordering food, or even heating up food sucks, and is ultimately a huge waste of time. So to solve this, we've set out on a mission to make a new type of food that we like to call human kibble, which will hopefully revolutionize the way we eat forever.

This is Advantame, and for a while now, I've wanted to try tasting it in it's pure form. This is because it's a really powerful artificial sweetener, and it's supposed to be 20,000x sweeter than normal sugar.

It has been quite the challenge to develop, and it has unfortunately taken a lot longer than expected, but the kit is currently in production! Every order, whether you have already placed it, or you order from today, will arrive to you at the end of February 2027

Ok so we just finished panning for gold using a bunch that Reggie bought off the internet, and by some miracle, we were actually able to get some gold. That being said, I don't know why, but I've always assumed that gold is pure (24k) when found in nature, but that might not really be the case. So we and to use the XRF gun to find out how pure this gold actually is.

A while ago we tried to use our XRF gun to figure out if there was any gold in pay dirt that Reggie got off the internet. Unfortunately the XRF gun said that there's little to no gold in the dirt, however in the comments, there were mentions about panning it instead.

Ok so we just finished blasting a wiener with this really powerful laser, and it was honestly kind of horrific. It got me thinking though, and I've been wondering if it's possible to instead cook a wiener with the laser.

A little while ago I got a really powerful laser welder from China, and I'm just really curious to see what would happen if I were using it, and I were to accidentally pass it over my finger or something.
