We Try Science Experiments Without Instructions

Today we're doing science with no instructions. Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. We're simple men. We love to do experiments, but we hate reading. Yeah, classic guy stuff. Reading instructions is for dopes. Don't tell us what to do and let us blow stuff up. Blowing stuff up is for men. Yeah. It's time for Science Without Guidance.

Featuring The Beaker Boys. Okay, beaker boys. Each round you have ten minutes to figure out a scientific result. with the items in front of you. You've got twenty-five points total at your disposal and need to have. at least one in the end to win. You also have. One in the end of who? What? Either. You also have. I'll take it if I have to. These. lifelines. If you need some help, you can grab a message from Science Mikayla about the scientific.

principle at play. For one point, I can reveal a decoy item for two points, I can vaguely tell you what result you're trying to achieve for three points. And if you can't figure out. the thing that you're supposed to figure out, or you run out of time, you automatically lose five points. This round contains. two decoy items. Ready? Set, solve.

All right. You got a jar. Jar. It's got a lid. We have a. Lid. A ping pong ball. We have what I believe to be dyed red water. Dyed red water. We have a fire making device that is functional. Lighter. A. candle. Candle. We have. Rosé Rush. from Paris Hilton. Is it. What? Is it? Flammable? Hopefully. It's just a. It's a fragrance, not a hairspray. Okay. Okay.

You're gonna give yourself a headache. Is that what she smells like? A T-shirt? I wouldn't know. And a. glass. vat. Casserole dish. Whatever that's called. I personally believe that we just light the candle. for ambiance. I personally. And it is not related to the experiment. That you just take. No. You ain't gonna start a fire. Don't put it over there. Just light the thing and let's do a little fire that way, you know?

Come on. This is how I'm thinking. Let's. Let's hear from Mikayla because. We need something. Because we don't know if we're dealing with fire or water. It's a steal. What's up, dweebs? Hey, hurry. Hurry? Yeah. We're being timed. Okay. I guess. I run on my own time. I'm a scientist. See, now it's taking longer. It's taking longer than if you hadn't said nothing. Takes a very, like, it could take years. I respect that. Take as much time as you need. Don't disrespect me. But what you're saying. is so important that we need to hear it.

Right, right, right. Okay. Don't you love it when alcohol makes things go wild? So we know that we need the alcohol. Respect my time. Thank you, science. I bet you the ping pong ball can go wild. But it can't be as simple as lighting, what we used to do, what you wanted to do a moment ago, which is just like lighting the spray. What if you? Sometimes you can spray something inside of a can like this. Yeah. And then drop a. candle inside. We're really controlled in the way that fire is dropping into this thing.

So get ready to put the lid on that. Stop. Stop. Well, are you ready? Go. I'm ready. All right, he's got. So now we've got alcohol in there. Yeah, we did it. Because this thing, it doesn't have ingredients on it. We gotta decoy something. We gotta get rid of something. Decoy. You don't need. the ping pong ball. I was thinking that went wild in there. So, now what goes wild? Could it change?

Could. putting the dye on the white T-shirt could, because we only have one more decoy item? Alcohol is going to make something. happen with the shirt. Like a wild design, or is it wild cherry colored? We gotta spend some more points, man. We need to find the desired outcome. Whatever Stevie said. Yeah, we gotta go for it. For three points? Yeah. This is too hard. The vague. thing? Yes. Okay, fine.

Can you show me some geysers? All right. Oh, sorry. Hi, sirs. Can you show me some geysers? Oh, thanks for clarifying. Geysers. Why would we need this? And why would we need? We know we need this. We need to set this on fire and see what happens. Light the candle, you can light the candle. And then what are you gonna do?

Place it on top of that? No, we're gonna. We're gonna charge this thing up, we're gonna drop it in here, and we're gonna see what happens. What if it explodes? It won't explode. Well, I do have. I just burnt my. Five minutes. Are you? Let it, let it, let it get going. Are you ready? Ready? Yep.

Geysers. It went out. This is too hard. Don't complain. We're in the middle of it. I think we have to. It's just one more point for a decoy. Two. Two? Can it be one? Negotiating? Desperate. Yeah. Did you see that? See, there is alcohol in this. We got to put water in this thing, and then we gotta put alcohol in it.

On top of it. We gotta set it on fire. That's what it is, Link. It's making. fire. water. You gotta put alcohol on top. Yep. Put alcohol on there. Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going. Stop. Float it. Add a little bit more, because I don't wanna reach that far. Now. I'm erasing what you did. I've thought about it, and I'll give you the decoy for one point.

Okay. Do you wanna accept? Yes. Yeah. You don't need the T-shirt. We weren't using the T-shirt. Oh, here we go. I was looking at it. Now, now spray it, spray it, spray it lightly. Don't you love it when it goes wild? Geysers.

Geysers. I put it out. Okay, I've thought about it, and I'll give you another hint. You're not putting. Don't listen to her. You're not putting. Don't. No, listen to me. You've lost our trust, Stevie. You're not putting the liquid in the right container. Hi, sirs, would you like. And that's not the answer. in totality. I'm just telling you. I know what we got to do. Make a, make a film on the top of this? What you're going to do is take all.

Push all this out. Push it all out. Push it out. Put it in there. No, no. Take the liquid from the casserole dish and put it in the pan. Forget about it. But the pan is. The pan is never a thing. To get where, we're starting over. Ninety seconds remain. We're starting over. Trust me. I'm doing it, but I don't like it. Okay. All right. Get it out of there. Okay, now set it down. Put this. Spray this. A whole bunch of crap in there. Right, right, right. Okay.

Now, stop. Put it over. Now pour water around it. Yes. You water? Less than a minute. Pour water on it. Now we somehow light the candle. Just. Just get to the. Just. How would you get to the candle? I would take this off. Okay. Would light the candle. Then I would spray it inside here.

Stop. And then I would go. oh, geyser. I knew it, man. We were so close. I was so close. That was cool. That's crazy. What happened is crazy. Pressure. Let me guess, somebody did that better than us? Yeah, and our usual, Caitlin. was out this day, so we had to go to our usual Mad Dog.

Let's take a look. Yep, yep. Take that. Pour that into the pan. Yeah. Take your time. Now, that that's full, now. Yep. Take a candle. Yes. Put that down. Yep, yep, yep. Good. Go ahead and light it. Yep. Go ahead and light it. We were so all over it, man. Now take the jar. There you go. Why are you so enthusiastic?

Fill it up with alcohol. Put it over the top. That's so crazy. Science! So the alcohol vapors from the perfume ignite from the candle's flame, creating rapid combustion in the confined space of the jar. The gases created by this combustion cannot escape quickly, causing a sudden increase in pressure. And that's why there's a small explosion. That was cool. Thanks for the help, Stevie. We'll take it.

We did it. Your lifelines are the same as in round one, but this time, there are three decoys. Your time. starts now. All right, we gotta get better this time. Magnets. Lots of magnets. Balloon, copper coil made into a springy spring. A flashlight that works, LED. LED. A lemon. This is real. A real. lemon. And what they've labeled as salt water. I know that you can make a battery out of salt water.

because of ions. Let's get the, so, so, but there's already a battery in there. Where we're going, we don't need this battery. But why would they give us. So they think that we would take the battery out. Oh, they know that we would. And then we put this in there. Does that work? No. No. We need to know what the outcome is. Is that when she said geysers? Yeah. Well, I think it works. Hi, sir.

It did work, geyser. It was catchy. Hi, sir. Sir. Hi, sir. It did make geysers. All right, but. Let's start there. We got three things we gotta remove. We'll make. It'll. It'll. All right. It'll make clear. Outcome. We need it. We're willing to spend the big bucks. There are all kinds of fields out there, but the one in this experiment will leave your head spinning. Okay. All right. Magnetic fields make things spin. Magnetic fields can make batteries spin.

And if you, can you float a battery in salt water? Yes, Link. And it, does it float? No, no, no, it doesn't. It doesn't. What else could spin. besides. a battery? A balloon. So if you blow a balloon up and then? Float it. And then if I take these magnets and I put.

If we made a balloon spin, who would give a crap? Hopefully thousands of people. That's all you're hoping's watching? We gotta do better than that. Magnetic field. You know what? We don't need this, but we should probably find out we don't need it. You wanna? Because this is two items in one. If we get rid of this, we're real. Do we need the flashlight? You know you can't ask me that. Decoy.

Okay, you're asking for a decoy? Yes. You do not need. the lemon. No lemon field. So does the copper? Is not magnetic. Link, did you want to ask me a question as a friend? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ask a friend question. Yeah, like. Like what? Yeah. What should I ask you, friend?

Maybe the question that you tried to ask me in the lifeline section. Do you really think that it's worth it to have this flashlight out here? I do. As a friend. As a friend? I do. Yep. And the only reason we would. Look. We don't need to be rescued. We don't need to be rescued. Well, maybe we do. The only reason we need this is for the battery. Are you asking as a friend? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, as a friend, I would agree with that. All right, so, the battery is gonna go to the bottom of this.

Go to the scrapyard, lemon. And you know what it's gonna do? It's gonna make a magnet spin. What we're gonna do is we're gonna put the battery. See, I'm gonna use the wet battery again. I'm gonna put it down there. And then what I'm gonna do is on the outside of this. Don't need this tray because it's magnetized. I'm gonna start putting magnets on either side of the bowl. You see, I almost did it. He spun it. I saw it. I don't know if Carney was staving off his sneeze or if he got excited.

Do you know what, Link? Check this out. Check this out, Link. Oh, that scared me. Check this out. This. fits perfectly around this battery. As if they. Doesn't it, friend? They intended this, friend. And what we don't need, at this point, is the balloon. Or the water. Oh, I hadn't even thought about that. I gotta know if the water is. Two decoys. All right, give us another decoy.

You do not need. the water. See? Okay. All right. And here we are putting batteries in water. That's dangerous, man. So there's two more. There you go. There's one more. You put that down. And then what? What's this? I think we can make this spin. I'm losing it. I'm losing it. Shoot, we're running out of time. Mikayla. Mikayla. Mikayla. Ninety seconds. Mikayla. Mikayla. Mikayla. Please help us. Take all the time you need. Okay.

All right. You are. currently, currently, on track. to getting this. You are currently. We are? Currently. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a current. On track. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look. To getting it. And we're spinning it. Now. If you take that and you. Touch the ends. on both sides. Oh, it's getting hot. Oh, it's getting hot. Disconnect it.

The wire got hot. It got so hot. Because it's conducting, you're currently. You're gonna burn yourself. Stack it through all of these. All right, so we got that. Okay. And then. Oh, it's so hot. Use this. Disconnect it. I don't have. I don't. It's gonna burn. Why do I? Five seconds. You connected it. Use the gloves. Hold it up and spin the thing.

And time. I bet. I bet Lucas couldn't do it either. Flashlight. Take the battery out. Boy, he's in the Mikayla school of pacing. All right. You made a machine. Easy. And you know what? Look. You can put that in your room.

Put a little ballerina on it. Look at what we had. Look at what we did. We did the. A sideways version of that. Yeah, we did a cool version of it. I'm not gonna point fingers here, but. Hey. The copper thing was. totally ready to spin on that battery. Yeah, but I did. I narrowed it down to the, to the relevant materials. I just couldn't. I mean, it got hot, though. We gotta redeem ourselves. It got so hot, I burnt my little fingers. You're a little bit scared of the dark, or you just like to see where your feet are as you walk.

around your bedroom at night? Well, you should get the GMM. Neon Sign Night Light. Yes! You plug it right into the wall. Yes. And then it's just sensitive to when it gets dark and it comes on. Yes. And you can get it at Walmart and walmart.com exclusively. while supplies last. Pretty cool. GMM Nightlight. Okay, you only have five points. remaining. Okay, and we need to keep one? Don't rub it in. And you need to keep one. There's only two decoys this round. And your time starts now.

Okay, we have a beaker. We have an apple. It fits in the beaker. We have a post it note, a paperclip, a pencil, which could go on top. And once again, we have. fire. Pencil lead is not flammable. That's good to know. All right. What can we do with this? All right, we have five points. Knowing the three pointer is always helpful. Let's not waste any time. The principle. because last time she said something about head spinning.

Because I could see. And that's how we got to where we needed to be. Really. Yep. And because I could send this all the way through. that. Yeah, he could do that. I could do that. We're done. He's done. I could put that there like a spit. But Stevie, I think we need the principle at play. Okay, and you know, it's three points out of your five? Yes, we do. That means, we basically. We are stuck at that point. No, no, no. We could also use Mikayla. You're one point? Okay. Yeah.

Okay. Where there's smoke, there's the solution you're looking for. Okay. The solution. So, when we smoke something, it creates. apple juice. We're going to use apple juice to write a hidden message on that Post-it note, and then we're going to use fire to reveal it. It's the old apple juice hidden message. So what I'm going to do is. How they communicated in the olden days. See, I'm dipping in the inkwell. Yes.

You really don't even need a pencil. So, I'm doing. And then you just do it with this because now you're gonna write it. We don't need a pencil. But the pencil was a hint. The pencil was a distraction. But ironically, we don't need the pencil. Because we're just gonna use. just a little bit of apple juice. Let me write something. Okay, all right. Okay, all right. Okay. Don't scratch it. Don't scratch now. It's going back over. You got it. Now hold that up.

It's hard to see. All right, so I'm just gonna put that. All right. What? Is there anything written on that? I don't know. I gotta burn the ink without burning the. Yeah. It's working, though. It is working. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's on you. That's on you. Yes, yes. Okay. All right. We got plenty of time. No one's celebrating. I think. We haven't.

No indication. Mikayla, we might as well burn, no pun intended, our one point on you, because we need. It's the only thing we can afford. Yeah. You're almost burning bridges, too with me here, too. Okay, okay. For respecting my time. You got all the time in the world, I guess, right? Yeah, yeah, we do. We do. We do now. We do. We thought we did, but we don't. Okay, you guys must be dense. if you're not getting this. Density. One more time. You guys must be dense.

if you're not getting this. If you're not getting this? Dense. But there's no smoke. Five minutes. Where there's smoke, the solution is the solution you're looking for. Yeah, something like that. You guys must be dense. Density. There's no liquid. Can we write a hidden message on the apple? Density and. smoke? First of all, the best way to make smoke.

Is fire. Is. underneath this. Remember how we captured smoke that time? Yeah, we made a lot. So, all I got to do is put this under there. and burn it. But you gotta let it burn. The hidden message is revealed. not by fire, but by smoke. There is no hidden message. We burned the wiener. The wiener was on this. We were right in terms. Thirty seconds.

Okay. We were right in terms of the paper clip. The paper clip. It's sticking. To do something. Stick it to the. Oh, you've let the smoke go. I'm like, well, that's bartender. And you go like that. There's a hidden message in your drink. The dense smoke creates a. Maybe it's a little paperclip diving board. And when you light it, it burns away. Look, it burns. And then watch what happens. Watch, watch, watch. And then. watch, watch, watch.

Yeah, let's. Something like that. Let's. Let's take a look. I've learned something. What the secret message was all along. It was a secret message. Yes. Paperclip. We didn't use that. at any point. What's he doing? He's creating a hook. Okay, we never would have gotten that.

Oh, you could make a little. A cigarette. He's making a cigarette. You can't do that on YouTube. And, yeah, we never would have done that. He didn't even write a hidden message yet. Okay, so now he's burning it. You see the smoke going down? He's dookie-ing out smoke. Why is it doing that? Why is smoke going down?

Because that's how cigarettes work. When they're at the same temperature, smoke is actually denser than air. This may come as a surprise, since we usually see smoke when it's burning, thus at a higher temperature and less dense. So, as the smoke travels down the Post-it note, it cools down, making it denser than the air and causing this cool waterfall effect. What? Man, that would have been awesome. Speaking of cool things that you could have had. if you had won, you could have. been able to see what it looks like when we combine your DNA.

and we'll let you look. But you can't enjoy it. Okay. But, I will enjoy it, and I will use it for slow science. There we go. Our DNA? That's our hair? Yeah. Don't ask me how I got it. And you braided it? You're matching. Bit strange. Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. That's weird. You know what time it is. Hi, Rhett and Link. My name is Sarah, I'm from Delaware.
