I thought it wasn't bad. There had to be a higher drop to get the ball full speed. Or a steel dart with the "W" core. Keep being awesome, the important thing is how much fun you guys have, and how much better you are with every new video.

That is a shame. I thought it was pretty decent, even though a lot of people have thrown tungsten metal onto things from high places. And the good part was the fact that you acknowledged that it isn’t as heavy as osmium, but also isn’t nearly as expensive. I like how sensible you are. Oh well. Keep up the good work.

Smashing the sphere into a non sandstone rock and seeing the sparks that come off of it would be cool. Adding a piece of cloth and seeing how it burns at the impact site of said collision would also be neat.

I thought it was a decent video. I liked the way it bounced off the ballistic gel, lol. Would love to see the tungsten ball dropped from different heights into oobleck. Or how much pressure it would take for it to shoot from the cannon. I really enjoy your content. Keep up the great work, guys!

Tungsten sphere vs a metal cube: Aluminium Copper Pure iron Etc. Would really appreciate that

I was halfway through the video when i left for work this morning, thought that was that, but thanks for leaving it unlisted, it was in my watch later so i still got it lmfao

One of these days I'd love to see the physics in action that allows Garnet to be able to bounce up the high pressure stream and damage the needle surface on our omax

-How high can it bounce (using dumb materials as bounce pads) -can you catch it like a baseball (using an outfielder glove with a dummy hand and body looking up to catch it) -How many plates does it take to stop it (using cheap goodwill plates) -shotput challenge (how far can you huck it compared to baseball/steel ball/ softball of similar size) -“Nailed It” challenge (can you drive a nail through a wood plank with it). -Terminal velocity challenge (how much faster does it make it to the ground compared to softball/steel ball etc)

I definitely noticed it and FOR ME it made it difficult to watch for sure. Glad you guys are redoing it!

Get a long clear plastic tube (roughly the same size as the tungsten and stack things (like multiple sodas) at the bottom. The tube should keep everything contained and you can see how many things it can crush at a single time. Also shaving cream is always a good one, maybe paint cans as well I just wouldn't do that one first.

Might be cool to see how it holds up agenst wood lesser metals and if you could shoot it it with a sniper rifle

We just made the decision to remove this morning's video. We had issues with the video exposure, and a lot of the experiments didn't turn out as epic as we had hoped :( But don't worry! We are going to start over and do it much better this time around. If you guys want to help, just leave a comment on this post with suggestions for things we could do with the sphere that would give us really interesting, satisfying, and/or educational results!
Context for those who don't know: In the video we were smashing objects using a super dense (and super expensive) sphere of pure tungsten.
