How Fast Can We Spin Bulletproof Glass Before it Explodes?

FlexiSpot E7plus standing desk:

We wanted to see how fast we could spin bulletproof glass using our super-powerful waterjet! We filmed the explosions using our Phantom Slow Motion camera to see every detail.

Tapering the material to be thinner at the edges can allow higher speeds. For instance, the wheels of a supersonic car have a lens-shaped cross-section. As a bonus that should allow for jetting more towards the center of the wheel thereby providing leverage that allows the wheel's edge to spin faster than the speed of the water.

The problem with the bullet proof glass wheel was you had the waterjet hitting in between the layers of the bullet proof glass so it was just separating/destroying the weakest layers causing it to blow apart faster than probably if it was designed the other way (instead of looking at the face of the bullet proof glass having a hole in it, it should have been the side of the bullet proof glass having a hole in it).

Mad respect for picking up a black widow spider. I've seen maybe 2 or 3 in my whole life and it took a lot to rebuild my house each time after I burned it down.

Bro, after a single incident like these, the hydraulic press channel decided to build a concrete bunker around the test area. And you, things keep exploding and flying in every direction and you just chuckle and move on. You are certainly playing with the odds.

"Or we will waterjet your house in half" Got me!

[astrodane]

"Daniel will you waterjet me" 🤣

at 0:10 you look like a "hello fellow kids" dollar store version of Steve Buscemi

Thank you for telling me I'm special for pausing the video. ❤

What I like about this channel is that every video feels like the first video all over again

[dimitary]

Dude, you're actually so funny, i have TEARS.

[tracybowling]

I love your videos. You can probably tell because I watch every single one. But I still wanted to tell you! This was a particularly fun one to watch!

There's a company in Woodlands Texas called ChampionX. They make Diamondback 3D printer nozzles out of a substance called "Bort", or polycrystaline diamond. Unlike regular diamonds which are incredibly hard, but brittle and easily smashed, borts are incredibly hard and very durable (those nozzles are basically invincible). You should reach out to them and see how big of a bort they're able to make, and if they could make a bort skateboard wheel. I can pretty much guarantee the algorithm would love a title like, "Spinning a solid diamond skateboard wheel at hypersonic speeds", and a thumbnail with "REAL DIAMOND" in it...

Just stopping by to appreciate how nice your waterjet is and how well maintained it is :)

Getting flash banged by cardboard Nate was not expected

Everytime they post a video we can confirm that Daniel didn't die this week. Hope we'll seeing another video next week.

[jasonyoungblood]

Your personality is unmatched. Great videos!

I am surprised this channel is still going strong, at least three different changes in the face of the channel, but the heart stays the same as day one.

I've been watching this glass artist's youtube channel and apparently there is a resin specifically for glass. You should look into getting some and see if it makes the bulletproof glass better

9:41 Mickey Mouse? Is that you? Are you finally back from prison?

Clicked on this video bc I haven't watched this channel in years, what happend to the two OG guys that used to be on here
