Please share this video by clicking this: http://on.fb.me/SweetMath This is called the "Liquid Rope Coil Effect". Roped behave the same way when dropped from high. See the raw high speed footage here: http://bit.ly/RawHoneyData The high speed camera used was a Phantom V10. Rent one yourself by clicking here: http://bit.ly/wQPlHd Artist Info: Gordon McGladdery wrote & Recorded the song "Long Time, No See" Download it here: http://ashellinthepit.bandcamp.com/track/long-time-no-see-2 Sarah Xu, a student at the Vancouver Film School made the awesome introduction Drawing. Look at the full non-8-second version here: http://captainpillow.blogspot.ca/ The graphs are scientifically accurate! My pancreas almost shut down after the test tube scene. I kept getting corn syrup/molasses/honey on my hands and licked it off. Seriously.... I started feeling weird. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why did I make this? Because you asked! I made this video at the request of a Smarter Every Day Subscriber: http://www.youtube.com/user/JanBoothius Tweet me @SmarterEveryDay and ask me to do something. Also, I contacted a Physicist named Sean in the UAE who made this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEkuhC9eJlM ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ GET SMARTER SECTION Kinematic Viscosity is simply the Dynamic Viscosity divided by the Density http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity Read an article by the Royal Society on the Math involved. Hope you like math: http://bit.ly/LceHa8 Here's a great paper that describes the 4 flow regimes very well. http://bit.ly/L1Hs7m ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The high speed was shot with a Phantom V10: http://www.visionresearch.com/Products/High-Speed-Cameras/v10/ Instead of saving for my kids' college, I make videos using the money I would have saved. The thought is it will help educate the world as a whole, and one day generate enough revenue to pay for their education. Until then if you appreciate what you've learned in this video and the effort that went in to it, please share the video. If you REALLY liked it, feel free to pitch a few dollars towards their college fund by clicking here: http://bit.ly/KidsCollege Warm Regards, Destin
Destin would be the best science teacher ever...
he and cody
hahaha
I want to like your comment but it's current at 420 likes. I can't do it
Can you imagine how much better school would be if teachers cared as much as he did?
he IS the best science teacher ever!
I'm on the learning side of YouTube again
+NittanyNation22 Whats on the otherside ?
I don't wanna talk about it

Wow. I didnt understand one bit of this.
Happy early birthday
That’s a side effect of being dead...
That's what happens when you are an idiot, hinds by your name.
Lol same and i wacthed the whole thing anyway
I understood how the differences from the thickness of the honey and how far up you put it that it’ll make it fall faster and make a pattern while sinking down into the honey- idk .-. I like learning don’t blame me 😂
Destin...I'm adopting you.
You're my You Tube Dad as of now.
@saquist Adopting your own dad? Now there's a screwed up relationship
+saquist then just call me sis!
@***** Σ( ° △ °|||) mind blown

right right the video has nothing to do with these assault rifles because those are not assault rifles.
I stayed for the shower scene.
i was good at math once
Decrypted Source so do i, i was the only one that got 200% in our 200 equation in math now i forgot science was the best subject ;)
You never really understood it then
Those aren't assault rifles. I just made you smarter everyday :)
charlie dee
watering hose

@de7io All examples of redundancy, they don't go together either. Nice try though.
@charlie dee fire hose, air hose; spy glass, eye glass; salt pan, gold pan.
Hmm. Seems @de7io was onto something; they're not redundant after all. Nice try indeed!
@Ben Pratt incorrect. I'd bet you whatever you want to lose that you are wrong.
It isn't an assault rifle until you've been assaulted with it. Destin spent too much time with Obama.
It would be interesting to know if it turned one way in the northern hemisphere and the other way in the southern.
No, it doesn't. Simply stated, the Coriolis effect is not responsible for honey coiling.
The size of the coil is way too small for Coriolis force to have an effect. This only happens for large weather and ocean systems, like hurricanes or gyres.
I was wondering the same thing. It would seem too much of a coincidence that all the visible coils were clockwise.
Not gonna lie, I'm about as smart as a paper bag. I understood none of this and just thought that the coil was pretty.....
"And it has nothing to do with the assault rifles on that table" their where like 3 bolt action rifles on that lol. All rifles are just rifles, "assault" rifles don't exist.
I never thought I'd hear science discussed in a southern accent to the tune of a Quaker oats commercial jingle....
I want honey now...
loooooooool... me too
@othman alazzam laugh out out out out out out out out out loud
I wanna live, in Visco City!
Dude - you are SUCH an engineer! Once you've been taught to see the detail in the world around you, you cannot 'unsee' it. Every little thing is seen with even greater Wonder! Great job.
One small bone to pick - the reference to 'assault rifles' - I'm assuming they are just semi's, and not full auto. Be good if we 2Aer's could avoid the use of that term since its so mis-understood and mis-used.
Anyhow, carry on! Awesome channel.
you should drop the coil from the chopstick into liquid nitrogen to freeze it before it deforms
@Kleptic Heist it would not be able to flow once reaching the air above the nitrogen, which would freeze it instantly; Thus you wouldn't get a coil at all.
@mhotl things dont freeze that fast buddy, watch any video that includes the freezing of anything with liquid nitrogen
I just spent most of my money on a really big jar of honey and it didn't work
then you are a idoit
+D Roberts did you finish your honey yet?
+Antivoid idiot*
Antivoid *aN idIOt
Most of your money? Just how big was this jar or honey?
Every time I watch your vids I feel like a scientist or someone really smart😂😂
but youre not. ^^
Mr Diddley hahahahaha, loved it
CHILL BRUH LOL
Every time I pour honey I think of this video haha
Am I right?...or am I right?......I'm right
Do you pour honey for a living?
+Bltch Erica I'm a cook and work with honey a lot
+SmarterEveryDay please do a video on hydroplaning dynamics as it relates to tires, tire design and travel. for example ive never seen ann all season tire where the grooves in the shoulder are at 45 degrees (theyre always at or near 90)...why? what facyors do speed, mass, water depth, temp, tread depth, height and placement play?
Clickbait title: Destin gets NAKED IN FRONT of the CAMERA!
gayo
BZ , you have something against that?
+Dj Minus chill out, pc sjw.
Most people came for that scene actually
You're a tease, sir.
Showing us all those guns but doing no shooting?
Shower scene with no conditioner?
Shameful.
To bad my ear buds don't wrap up like that...
You should try wrapping them up in a figure-8 around the Vulcan salute
If it coils differently on geographical locating, the magnetism and earth angular movement might be key factors.
I think Destin is the Bill Nye of Youtube
That's actually kind of insulting, since Bill Nye is basically a nut job.
Well if you have a cylinder tube and play a note (with a tuning fork, string, etc) at one end and then move the object emanating that note closer or farther, you will get intervals of constructive and destructive interference. Maybe when the honey stick is moved the same sort of thing happens. It will either gather nicely in a coil or go out of wack as with the sound.
Just a thought on why this might happen.
@Microphonix Virtual Studio Frequencies are measured in Hertz, and frequency is equal to the inverse of the period. Wavelengths are something separate and measured in units of length.
WHERE DID THIS WHOLE WOLF THING COME FROM ANYWAYS??!!!!!
@Oxy Worgon I think your in to something. My line of though was a tad different though. I believe it is to due with the way the honey is moving ifself out of the way. If you think about in the way of simple harmonics maybe the point where there is the coil it is the ampiltude of the flucuation and the points where it goes haywire are where the nodes are . if the nodes are a point where the honey is not comeing clase to or reaching its amplitude then it can not create the coil effect yet it still needs to get out of its own way so it fallows the path of least resistance and moves to the points in the path of the honey where the honey is the least viscous.I believe that would cause the non coil formations that make no sense.
Those are just my thoughts. If you can please get back to me.

@Alaric Ross
I think you have something there. Just like the way many other things in creation work. Like in audio, how far apart you place the speakers from each other can make or break a good sound system. The distance apart you place transmission towers from each other can be used to direct the radio waves. How far apart you set the warp nacelles from each other and the number of coils used may greatly affect just how fast you might be able to travel in space. Of course this is when someone brilliant discovers the details of how warp drive works. E=MC2
Lol u should be teachers
Thank you for not talking down to us.
Yes, thank you so much. You never talk down to us unlike all the other rude and bratty youtubers out there.
i wonder if it coils counter clockwise in the southern hem
Same thing came to my mind.
as a person from the sothern hemisphere i can conclude that the coriolis effect when it comes to liquid is bullshit
Didn't Destin and Derek make a big collab video about the coriolis effect when it comes to liquids?
+Riley Uhr it's already been proven to be factual...
Southern hem checking in. Send free honey. Will investigate and report back.
4:27 omg waste of shampoo
No, that shampoo was used in the name of science!
Ohhh nooo sampoooo...
@Marmonery
Shamience
Nah conditioner runs out so fast it's good to even out the shamp/con ratio once and a while.
OMG waste of waste ... if that's even possible.
"It's actually much sweeter than that." AHAHHHAHAHAHAHHHHHAHHAHA I-IT'S-IT'SACTUHHAHAHHHHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHHAHHAHHA *explosion of head*
I want some honey now :/
me 2 :/
+itzglo i will give u my honey, inside your mouth, swallow it
This is brilliant! I have no idea what he's talking about when it comes to math but it's a fascinating experiment nevertheless! Also, I want to know why the honey always seems to coil in a counterclockwise direction. Is this merely a coincidence?
That is because it is in the northern hemisphere. As a beekeeper in the southern hemisphere I noticed it goes clockwise . Dont ask me what causes that since Im also puzzled by the equations given in the film. Same effect is with bath water circulating down the drain.
@Michael Lawson my understanding of the Coriolis effect is that is only applys to large systems such as supercells, not toilets or honey coils: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriolis_effect
That's what I thought but the highspeed video in the beginning shows the honey flowing clockwise.
I think I should have been hearing music from the movie "Psycho" at the latter part of this video clip.
Oh, I thought it was one of those satisfying 1 hour videos.
Destin; did you seriously just call a table of semi-automatic rifles 'assault rifles'? Come on, man.
4:28 - I was doing that earlier today thinking about this phenomenon. It was just a coincidence that I found this video today without even looking for it. :O I subscribed as well. :)
Man, I am both awed by and envious of smart people. All I can do is watch and try to comprehend just a tiny fraction of what I see and hear.
Curiosity is a much more desirable trait than intelligence.
And the willingness to learn is far more commendable than the capacity.
@MUGWUMP That's a good quote, thanks.
@Ralph Zodang
Thanks for letting me know you liked it. It feels good to know that my sentiment was appreciated by others.
Keep in mind the time he's had to understand it was much greater. The time you've had was only 5 minutes.
In order to understand this you need to go way deeper than we went here. In this video some variables are defined and some formulas are given with a very superficial explanation to them. There isn´t much to understand.
Omg I just took my fluid dynamics final two weeks ago, it's back to haunt me! Great vid haha
4:20 pan the camera down....in slow motion.
Wha what? I just came to see some honey..
You lost me at "Welcome back to smarter every day"
Just seems like such a nice genuine guy. Love the videos.
I remember hearing about this in his TED talk. “A 17th order nonlinear two point boundary value problem with 2 free parameters and 19 boundary conditions.”
Aka: no matter how smart you think you are in fluid physics, honey is smarter.
I lost you at "this will be sweet! Literally!"
I`m sure I didn't find this stuff this interesting when I was at school. Love your work, keep it up :-)
It seems pretty logic to me. The same thing happens when you drop a rope in the same way, it starts to form a spiral- It's natural
I was just thinking about this yesterday.... that video didn't really help. interesting, but not helpful
now find something to add to mercury to make it viscous, and have its twirls captured my an array of magnets to generate electricity.
thats how UFOs work.
Thank you for making everyday more interesting, and honing my observancy further.

I didn't know he was a billionaire until he started wasted shampoo handfuls at a time.

But the shampoo is Suave (I know, I use it)....not many richies buy Suave. lol

It was a joke! 😑

@IMBwildrd idk,,, the millionaires I know ask for extra shampoo at the hotel, use a bottle from another hotel they stayed at previously, and take the new shampoo home with them.....
