You can pop a soda can with a Sharpie!

Dianna from Physics Girl shows how to open an aluminum soda can with just a Sharpie!

The bar trick is to take the tab off first then bet a bar patron you can open the can without stabbing at it. Once the trick is revealed, hand them the sharpie and another can that was shaken.

Hi, greetings from México. Just want to wish Diana the Best. My daughter is 6 year old now and I'm still using this videos to educate her and let her be amused by the wonders of physics. Thank you very much for your work and we hope you get better as soon as possible.

It's good to see you again, Diana. Even if it's pre-covid Diana. I'm glad you or your team still upload here and there. I hope you make a full recovery and come back to excite us yet again with more weird discoveries and cool innovations in the world of physics. We miss you, get well soon. ❤

Thank you to whoever is making the shorts for Diana. Much appreciated. Wishing you all well.

This short popped up today, and it made me smile and long for Dianna to fully recover. So many of us remember your happy and bubbly nature, and we know how hard the last two years have been. I hope the YouTube algorithm keeps giving your channel much deserved airtime. ❤

We all still miss you so much, Dianna! I hope you're healing and getting stronger every day. 💖

this shorts appeared today in my dashboard and I wish her to fully recover soon. All the support and love from your followers.

She really puts a smile on with her energy and makes science fun, we need you back🙏

[JohnBender]

It always makes my heart sink to see her videos just show up as im scrolling thinking shes back and better and then realizing its old. I dont even care if she never makes another video. I just want to know shes okay.

I give you a lot of credit for explaining the science of it so well. So many people cant explain the unusual tricks they do. Good on you

What I find amazing is the tolerance control necessary to make the tops for these cans. The little groove that you're flexing by rubbing the sharpie back and forth is stamped. If that stamped groove is too deep. The can will open on its own due to the internal pressure you mentioned. If that groove is too shallow then the tab will just break off when you try to open the can. That groove has to have some pretty tight tolerances on it and the ability to manufacture to those tolerances is just amazing.

We miss you. Can't wait to have you back.

It's been a while since I've seen your content. It's good to see you at a time when you were healthy and I'm still hoping for your swift and thorough recovery!❤

[gabeangel]

Nice seeing one of Diana’s vids come accross my reccommended randomly. May she be well enough to make more videos again some day. Most importantly though, I wish her the wellness to do things she can enjoy and the patience to find enjoyable things within her limitations for as long as necessary

[scriptorpaulina]

Even if you’re disabled Diana, just know that this disabled physicist appreciates everything you do and did for me, now and growing up

[grimzly]

one day you’re gonna create some massive cheer when you just slip a brand new short in a recovered state. take care and we’re so looking forward to your return to normal.

[jeansiqueiradarosa]

Omg i miss her so much 😢 get better soon Diana, we are waiting for you! Big hug from Brazil!

[Kinann]

It's been so long but it makes you realize she was one of the first science enthusiasts on YT. There's so many now but she was one of the first!

[miaokuancha]

Wishing you all the best, Diana, and all your family and support folks too. I keep checking your channel and praying for a happy recovery for you.
