@boomzilla Just from the preview image, that looks like something that belongs in the Bad Ideas thread.
-
@HardwareGeek I watched it, and it assuredly belongs there. Possibly the dumb ideas thread, too. "I wonder what happens if I drop a handful of shells from my hand instead of via some kind of machine into a pot of molten aluminum?"
Spoiler
If you're _lucky_ you get a small burn on your shoulder, probably because most of the shells missed and fell on the grass.

If you're going to do Jackass stunts, do Jackass stunts. But don't call them "science". Fuck that noise.

@blakeyrat The video title doesn't have the word "science" in it.
Looks like at least some of his videos might conceivably be stretched to fit the term: he (at least according to the titles) made a pulsejet in one, and has several that say "synthesizing [some chemical]".

No, but he bills himself as The Backyard Scientist, which rather implies that what he's doing is "science."

Even if it's not as dangerous as it looks, splashing fairly large amounts of molten metal around while wearing shorts, a short-sleeved shirt, and sunglasses isn't exactly a great idea. Long pants, a welder's jacket, and a face shield would go a long way to making it a not quite so stupid idea. The welder's jacket probably would have prevented him from being burned by the spatter that went through his shirt, since that's exactly what they're intended to do.

@FrostCat It says:
TheBackyardScientist
Right under the video's title. You don't even have to visit YouTube to find it, it's in the onebox here.

Some of his videos--again, based on title alone--could conceivably by science-ish.

No, it's at least as dangerous as it looked! He splashed liquid aluminum all over his backyard, including a drop or so on himself.

If Bill Nye, the soi-disant Science Guy, put up a video of him doing something goofy and not sciency, would you object?

@FrostCat Depends on whether Twitter is omniscient and whether you're a libreral. I guess. Why not.

@blakeyrat Let me make a note on my whiteboard: "@blakeyrat disagreeable for the sake of being disagreeable again today".

@FrostCat said in Dumb and Random Videos Thread:
"@blakeyrat
disagreeable for the sake of being disagreeableagain today".The rest is redundant; it's implied by "@blakeyrat."

@Boner LOL. That reminds me of a video that won a bunch of money last season:

@boomzilla ha! Stupid butterfly!

That'll teach him to not teach his falcons to fly low!
FFS that's like the first rule of flying: Get as far away from the ground as you reasonably can!

Onebox fail. He taxidermies dead animals, including his own cat who was killed by a car, and makes them into drones.

Seems familiar, but that's just based on the thumbnail (because blocked at work, but only the video portion )
