How to Make the Strongest Material in the World—Graphene!

In this video I show you how to make graphene at home using a pencil and scotch tape! I show you a 1cmx1cm piece of real graphene and show you how much light it can absorb even though it is one atom thick.

This is why they say the pencil is mightier than the sword

[hexedever]

Imagine getting cut by graphene... ouchie

[RTR-JVN]

"You can see graphene carbon atom"
Me watching in 240P: Yes

[ysnqua]

Scientists: graphene is the strongest materiel in the world

Me in 3rd grade breaking pencils: I'm the strongest man in the world

[Ajz]

Action Lab: This is the strongest material in the world.
Kiwami Japan: So you're telling me this be used to make a kitchen knife? :DD

[mysterymeat]

Everyone: Wow! That's so cool! I can see it and it's one atom thick!
Me: I can't see it.

Graphene: *I'm stronger than Diamond*

Everyone: _Who are you?_

[adityamaurya]

When you realize people got Nobel prize for what we used to do in school for fun.

[johannesaskehov]

It should be noted that diamond is significantly hard, which doesn’t equal durable.

This means that if you distribute the diamond thinly (such as in the form of a sheet) it will be extremely brittle, and therefore less durable than something like steel, which is softer and will bend rather than break when under force.

[vitthaltiwary]

Graphene : strongest substance ever. Even stronger than diamond.
It's kept in a plastic box for protection.
Huh

[parasar]

This is what Saitama's head is coated with...

[fieryneil]

Teachers: *Diamond is strongest-*

That one Asian kid: *There is another*

[doomsday]

this is why john wick rarely use pencil because it's too strong

[DiamondDavey]

"Graphine is stronger than Diamond"
Me: *sad Diamond noises*

[maruftim]

"stronger than diamond."
*Netherite????*

disappointed :(

[DeepArsh]

Them : Why do you promote that product so often?
Him : I don't. Everyone just "Keeps" asking that same question to me.

3:00 😂 be prepared for baldness ad without any warning.

"you think it's impossible to see one atom, but it's possible."
*cries in 480p*

Titel: Strongest Material in the World
Me: *Skips through video *
Him: *Ripping a black paper apart *
Me: I do not have a clue what's going on in here
