Acid vs Lava- Testing Liquids That Melt Everything

Most people I asked predicted the wrong winner here. Go check out the new CrunchLabs Roblox game where you can build rockets with your friends and learn stuff! www.roblox.com/BuildaRocket

1:48 Mark’s hand wash detector is coming in handy!

Nigel used a weaker acid solution because he knew they'd be keeping the cars they'd destroyed at the end, truly a mad genius

Mark trying to embrace his inner Marvin HeeMeyer and almost getting stopped by a 1/2 inch steel plate is seriously the funniest thing to me a tradesman.
The known battle between guys on the tools and the engineers lives on and Id say this was a victory for the toolies.

I LOVE THIS COLLAB!!!!! ❤❤❤ yes!!! How am i just seeeing this when I stay watching both you and nilered's videos!??!??!? Great video guys 💯💯

The fact that mark can just get his hands on Lava and acid to the amount he can cover a car is crazy

I still can’t believe you can do all that to a diamond! I never would have guessed how tough they are..I’m still too scared to try it myself though 😅

Cool video! You should include NileRed more! He is an excellent KRplusr and while he does have fun in most of his videos he does maintain a serious technical aspect and teaches us new and unique scientific things we didnt know existed.

shoutout to mark for the best "chance" type giveaways. thats a really cool way to do a "giveaway"

Used cars for sale - slightly acidified/melted/crushed but with GREAT history.

You know the video is going to be crazy when Mark decides to collab with Nilered and Kevin.

3:14 ironic considering that nilered probably used piranha solutions

I grew up in Sudbury Ontario, which was the nickel capital of the world. Naturally, it was a mining town.
When they poured the lava onto the car it reminded me of when the mining company would pour the slag down a small hill at the side of the road. The molten rock would just glow as it ran down the hill. It was very cool to watch.

Honestly to even the odds Nigel should have been allowed to use any non-metallic, non-high explosive chemistry he wanted.

William is 100% the type of person to enter a video unannounced and I legitimately couldn’t tell if he actually did until everyone else showed up

I was wating for this collab for years

8:25 Mr. Rober, you saved the City.
How does it feel ?
MR: It feels great !

Having Will, Nigel, and Kevin was great. Please continue to do stuff with them.

Im so happy nile red has now been recognised by a larger youtuber and getting to collab with mark. A guy who likes physics vs a guy who loves chemistry

I decided to watch Mark Rober after a few years and i DIDNT expect him to collab with Nile (and a few others). Two of my favorite youtubers collabing :D

Ngl, Mark, Nilered, and the Backyard Scientist in one room is my dream.
Throw William Osman in and we'll see how many manage to make it back out alive!

I'll admit, I was rooting for Nigel as I'm a huge NileRed fan, but everyone did awesome, and Kevin did the most satsifying destruction.

The addition of Will, Kevin, and Nigel was awesome. Please bring them on more often.

Got gassed to see two of the best and my favourite science youtubers Nilered and Mark) collab.

I've been waiting for a project like this!

I think william osman showing up despite the fact that he wasn't invited is one of the most in-character things i've seen from him

Seeing Mark Rober, NileRed, Kevin, and William in the same video is a dream come true 😁

What would happen if you poured acid in lava?

Every key tasting the turkey leg after it was in the lava was hilarious

The damage done also depends greatly on the lava you use. Silicate lava (the melted "lava rock") is generally the coolest ranging from 800C-900C. Whereas Ultramafic lava can be almost twice as hot, ranging from 1600C-2000C (hot enough to melt steel and vaporize a lot of materials).
In addition fluoroantimonic acid, Carborane acid, or Magic acid would be much more effective.

I love how Mark's solution to everything was to just smash it with something

Nigel should have hooked the aqua regia up to the fuel line. I bet it would have stopped awful quick once aqua regia got into the cylinders.

interesting experience, thank you)
What music track is playing at 6:50?

I never thought I’d need NileRed, Kevin, and Mark in one video up until now.

William better be in the next competition, he's literally the definition of a wildcard

I'm seeing a pattern where these science videos just prove my intuition wrong lol.
In my head, there was no way Acid would beat Lava on Ice. I figured the Lava would melt it, and evaporate some, I knew it would cool down quickly but I didn't expect it that fast.
Also the Thermal reaction from the acid never crossed my mind. I figured it might melt a little, then get diluted. always learning I guess lol.

I’d love to see styropyro in a future video
I think Nigel’s acid would have won if he chose the correct acid for each situation

Will is literally my favorite part of any video he’s is. Not to mention I love how his buddies “somehow” all end up in his videos too

I love how mark genuinely loves to work with all these other KRplusrs without any kind of competitive attitude towards anyone and supporting everyone while doing so

bro during the intro i was like IS THAT ACTUALLY NILERED??!! without any hesitation

Me saving this vid to watch later: oh this looks mildly interesting
Me 2 minutes in seeing 3 of my favourite KRplusrs ever: 💀💀💀

you should also get styropyro on it. hes pretty scary with electricity stuff and hes also a chemist. i think hed be amazing to bring on to show people the crazy things he does! i really love these dudes becoming more well known. but yes, please bring styropyro on, you could even have him and nilered compete in chemistry!

This video was so friggin' funny, from Mark missing the diamond on the first swing, pushing toys around rather than crushing them to a powder, Nigel chucking a brick at the beaker, the rulings from the ref, just hilarious. And then Mark comes blasting in like the Duke boys and complains that Kevin parked too close 🤣 What a witty group of people, love it!

I love that, even if Kevin did not get the point from the bat round, he would have still won because the car round is worth 2 points.

I was not expecting ACME co. (from Roadrunner vs Coyote) to straight up drop an anvil from the sky!!! XD 7:34

The triple collaboration we never thought we needed. First Dude Perfect, Mark, and Zach King, and now Mark, NileRed, and The Backyard Scientist

This is the kind of thing we dream about when we were kids, and Mark Rober is doing it IRL!

HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS VIDEO UNTIL NOW?!?!?! KRplus WHAT ARE YOU DOING THESE ARE 3 OF SOME OF MY FAVORITE KRplusRS ON THE WHOLE PLATFORM

Mark started his KRplus with an IPad trick, and now we have the iPad getting burnt, slightly corroded, and blown to bits.

NileRed and Backyard Scientist are a duo I could watch indefinitely regardless of what theyre doing

I love how Nile and Kevin are just doing what they are interested in. Nile is interested in the chemical parts, while Kevin is interested in the more "natural" parts. I loved this video. Keep up the great work, Mark!

wow this video was made on my birthday! thank you mark!

I definitely thought the Acid would go in the car in some way lol through the gas tank or the oil filter or something

William showing up uninvited is just so ... William, its perfect. This was one of your best videos Mark. I love the glitter bombs and other pranks, those are goated, but as a big fan of engineering/science YT this held a special place in my heart seeing all my favorite creators that I already watch collab together. Fantastic stuff guys

Seeing Mark, Nigel, Kevin, AND William all together on Mark's channel brings me so much joy

Them melting that gold with acid simultaneously melted my confidence 😂😂I'm broke

17:00 as someone learning autobody, I can confidently confirm, that car should NOT look like that

I love how mark is actually starting to lose sanity with more and more destruction in each video and this one is no exception😂

Mark breaking the anvil instead of the diamond with the hammer was like the perfect Looney Tunes punchline

William is the one who homie that show up at your crib whenever he want

It just so cool to see diamond, is really strong and survive every hit

What a thrill ride this video has been, Mark! The breakdown of the experiments was fascinating and your humor really added to the experience. A very innovative and exciting way of presenting science! Looking forward to the next showdown at CrunchLabs. 👌🚀🔬

Now this is peak big kid content. Makes me feel like I'm back on the playground. Thanks for this, Mark.

When Nigel first poured the lava the car is internal parts of the engine COUGHT on fire first

Diamond was like: don’t try your spells on me chemicals, lava and pressure. I was there when those were written

The problem with the «lava» is that for any thing that contains moisture it will gain a heat shield, in the form of vapor. The vapor becomes isolation. And with the amount of liquid in that is in meat, it gets a lot of shielding compared to the time it takes for the «lava» to cool. This is the reason that when we blacksmiths harden steel, we have to keep the material moving, as to have constant contact with the liquid, and not just get the the heat shield preventing hardening from happening.

Mark clearly made his choices for entertainment purposes. I just won't accept the fact that he actually thought he would smash the diamond on an anvil, dude just literally performed the most brute force hardness test 😂

The fact that mark can just get his handa on lava and acid to the amount he can cover car is crazy lambor gani

I love how after 2019, all of the science KRplusrs started to collab so much more. Safety Third boys

It would've been really funny if the X factor for the wood bat was an industrial wood chipper

Lava it's where diamonds normally stay at a much higher pressure ant temperature then that, obviously that is a warm glass of milk for the diamond.

Mark Rober’s ability to blend exciting science experiments with his team’s unique personalities is what makes his channel so special to be honest.

Technically Nigel was the winner, since he gets to keep a working car. The acid might've damaged the engine, but just by washing it with water, it shouldn't be beyond repair.

Mark Robert is quite cool because he makes a lot of sophisticated things

Wow never thought some hot scorching lava can be more deadly then some acid

I love these colabs. Mark’s excited, and yet somehow soothingly calm, educational energy mixed with the absolute ADHD chaos that is Nile Green, Backdoor Scientist and Big Willie is absolute gold! Moar pleeeeeeez!

I love how at 13:50 it just transformed into Top Gear

🗣️:-what do u do for living
This guy:-i burn and destroy Everything

Nigel shouldve picked a ford. It wouldve stopped working on its own. Maybe even blown up 😂

16:57 That's what you call a "Nobel cause of Science" love it

13:55 scientific top gear

BRO MY FAVORITE SCIENTIST TRIO!!! THANK YOU MARK!!!!!!!!

9:28 oh, in my childhood I had the same Buzz Lightyear

I love how Mark said that his lair is secret and unknown to everyone and then William just walks in the back door 😂

@NileRed is a dope cameo. Thanks for giving him some more exposure. He definitely deserves it.

It would look like when he drove that vehicle like crazy it would have been in a tremors movie

I think you can make a case for lava in the ice round because of... rock bubbles

Mark: 12:17 “This is the closest thing to a lightsaber I have ever experienced”
Hacksmith Industries: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!

17:42 Great shot!

"Don't make me regret ever having invited any of you..." to the 'uninvited' judges... I suspect shenanigans :)

I'll immediately go to Roblox to play this masterpiece

What makes this video so cool is that it's just the boys being boys, doing what they love doing. Thanks Mark

Nile Red usually spends
half a year or more (usually) planning, researching, and testing multiple iterations give Nile Red this time he would crush everyone.

Every time I see electronics being destroyed for entertainment I think I wish I had one, games are getting harder and harder and my cell phone can't handle it anymore

14:43 I like how you can see the camera res is so low because they wanted to use a cheap camera

If you gave him enough time Nile would have turned the diamonds into soda.

0:49 bro that was so clean i didn't even see the second pair of sunglasses 💀💀💀💀

A pyrothecnician, an engineer, and a chemist in one video

8:13 every kid in the world. Yeah woo hoo. Yay woo. Let’s go let’s go let’s go.😂

The funniest part about the diamond is if he had simply flipped it over and hit it on the culet (the point) it would’ve probably cracked or shattered or at least chipped. Diamonds are strong, but very brittle and some of them don’t actually have a perfect point at the bottom because of it, the culet is slightly flat to make them stronger.
