Cornstarch yeah, you may be wondering why well, I'm gonna eat it. I'm just kidding. I'm gonna attempt to make black
It's called a non-newtonian fluid. This is the definition, but basically if you stand on it
It's like a liquid, but if you move on it fast. It's a solid anyways
The reason is we're gonna be seeing Mark Rober in 12 hours. He is the one of the most smartest
Sciencey people I know so we're doing this an honor of seeing you later. Mr.. Mark
It's so emotional, I just want to make murky proud
I
Watch the YouTube tutorial
It makes itself
So guys, I think I I think I failed you didn't do any research. I told you I looked at a YouTube video Zack
Okay, guys. I got in
Out of my face, so I got an ublic balloon right there
I'm gonna shoot it with a bow and arrow comment down below
Do you think it's gonna hit it like a rock or do you think it's gonna go through the blue, okay?
You should eat some
Got my safety glasses on let's try to ax it ready
Expecting it to go everywhere, but it didn't it like stayed a solid and it just hit the ground that was cool
So we just fed Zack a ton of beans, and I think we're ready for this experiment
Hey guys, so it's 5 o'clock in the morning. We're on our way right now to see the smartest guy
I haven't met before Mark Robert. We kind of met with the mr.
Beast hide-and-seek video, but you don't get opportunities to meet with such smart people very often
So I'm gonna pick his brain, and I'm very excited about this, so I'll see you at the airport
Okay, so we're here, but um I feel like I'm not actually here. Oh my god. This is what I heard
There's like a secret like thing that you move
Hello
Welcome to crunch laughs Wow you know there's like the fireman's bowl
This is like a pneumatic form that you come down a lot of people are really scared of including mr.
Beast yeah, I feel like of all people you're gonna. I'm so down
Way braver than
Experiment we did yesterday. There's like a cool snake thing if you come through here push one of those buttons
And that you go through the coke machine
Hey, so me. I'm gonna catch a soapy drop the claw drop it
another secret door
This is the world's largest nerf gun, and they go 40 miles an hour. They actually like stick the stuff
Here now normally it's like the tennis ball cannon from America
Have you ever like been just chillin like what people are chillin like went and shot them or would that just hurt at full power?
It like put a hole in the wall across
It's a tough one like those are tiny little footholds, right
So yeah, I mean that's basically the tour well
You know while I'm here. I thought maybe I could teach you something torsion. I would love to try and learn some contortion
I'm gonna qualify that with try and learn some I mean I think by the end of this I can potentially teach you
You know how to do this I?
Think we're gonna start off with something very basic
I feel like you and I have different definitions of basic and easy, but okay
And then
Yeah, that seems easy enough
I feel like there's a mirror in between
Okay
And now from here pull it
Your head okay
Also since you know you're so good at contortion you're already a master at it. You know I thought I would ask you a question
Science is more my thing but exactly so I do this thing where I go into a back bend and people stand on my hips
And I've held
270 pound guys on my hips before and like it really feel like there's weight on me
I can explain this all day, but let me just show you like stand on my hips
So basically you stand like right here. Yeah, you're cool with this right. I'm positive. I'll do my first step. There's like you know
Don't even feel it at all
Your question is why is that so doable we actually evolved to be on all fours like we eventually became
Two-legged, but we're not necessarily supposed to be too
Like our backs haven't evolved for that when you wear a backpack when you have something on your shoulders that way it has to go
Through your spine and then through your legs your legs have about like they are big beefy femurs, right?
So when you either have a backpack on with a belt or I'm standing on your hips like all that weight
Just have to go through your back. It goes right into your leg
We have like hundreds of millions of years of evolution to make from here down strong not so much for the back part
So that's why when you're doing this it's like
That's right. It's basically you take your back out of the equation hips down and this is designed
Organically to be really good to carry a lot of weight
So that's why you can put Terry Crews on your hips and yeah big deal. I don't weigh as much as him
Yeah, our muscle mass index is like slightly different yeah, I have one more question, too
This is a trick I do and everyone always asks me how I do it kind of doesn't look like it should make sense
Yeah, I'm able to do it
Wow
I can tell you exactly what's happening here. First of all, you're amazing
That's the first part of what's happening
What you're doing really well that most people can't is basically good control of where the center of mass is
When your legs come out here that shifts where your center of mass is when your legs came out your head came back where there's
Like you're very good at that and you just have an intuition about it
But ultimately you're keeping that right above your two hand support. So like you do it once more
So now before you put your legs out your center of mass is right here now put your legs out and I bet you're
So when you do that, you're this spot you you kind of angle this way a little bit to keep it right in between
Yeah, that's super cool, I'm very impressive it's just physics there you have it for anyone now we got to go shoot some feet arrows
Yeah, now we're gonna shoot some arrows and blow up things. Yeah
