I often wonder why I have no friends, and here I am, watching an 11 minute video on aluminium cans.
Probably all the aluminium can watchers should form a network of like minded people.
theyre jabronis for not being friemds with you

KRplus: you wanna see a guy talk about cans for twelve minutes again
Me: your goddamn right I do
I believe this is now my fifth time watching this
ladiesman2048 YOU TOO? I've watched this video without fail every time it's recommended to me
@@beansntoastyt2616 and here we go again...
You’re*
KRplus keeps recommending me the same videos and for some reason I keep watching em
I’ve watched this video at least 4 times now. KRplus recommends it to me every couple years, and I watch it every time. So much amazing engineering on what we think as a simple invention, but it really isn’t. It’s the evolution of 80-100 years of engineering, and has been improved over and over again until the consumer can’t even see the improvements anymore. It’s gone from a good design, to the best possible design within the parameters. Truly amazing.
He’s coming out with a new book this week!
Yesterday!
If you ever find yourself questioning biological evolution, just think about this. This is just a behavioral version of the same process. There's continual experimentation. Against that, the variations are tested. If they work, we keep them. If they don't, they are replaced. By keeping the things that work well, we close the search space, so to speak. We eliminate a lot of the randomness. And the various selective pressures all compete against each other with the more important ones having more weight on deciding whether a variant works and is kept or doesn't work and gets lost. Here, we see variants tested for ease of production, amount of material required, cost, material strength across a whole variety of factors, amount of volume contained, amount of pressure accommodated, stackability (tensile and compressible strength), even simple ease of use by a human so that it fits in a human hand, opens with a human finger, and doesnt encourage the human to do stupid or wasteful things with a tab. And biological machines like proteins, enzymes, tissues, etc, all evolve in an analogous process. (Yeah, I'm a nerd =D)
Too bad they don’t implement the same standards and ideas in vehicles. Cars are cheap plastic and throw away design anymore. Disgusting.
Wish cars were perfected and made to last
@@blackfacegaming191 Agreed. I drive a 15 year old wagon with 255K miles on it. I'm shooting for a million :D
You sir, are the David Attenborough of the mechanical world. I imagine I would stayed transfixed listening to you talk about anything. Thank you. Kevin
I take that as the highest compliment; and may I stay as active for as long as he has!
His calm enthusiasm coupled with the knowledge of the process in creating the aluminum can is what makes this so interesting.
I just imagine he's talking about beautiful female breasts every time he says the word CAN. Thats what makes it fun for me. To each their own though!
Quaglium Quagnarr I agree. If he wasn't so excited about them I wouldn't have seen myself able to sit through 11 minutes of this. I saw the length and thought "I'll just give him 2 or
3 minutes to kill some time"
Next thing I knew the video was over and it was very interesting throughout.
What a resource! This is a great video to give to a person who wants to learn to speak English.
Watch is enough times and a person will have a real advantage when combined with other teaching methods.
Quaglium Quagnarr don’t forget those eyes
would listen to a podcast with this clear articulate voice
Holy fuck, I didn't expect to watch the whole video...

KRplus recommended this for my annual aluminum beverage can pilgrimage, see you guys next year
I will check you off the list … we had been waiting for you and we were concerned that you had not visited yet.
I briefly worked in a can factory, there was a machine there that was the size of a small house, half the machine rose a few feet and then fell. Each impact produced thousands of cans. It was a little awesome to see.

Dude this guy made something that's normally really boring into a really fascinating and enjoyable video to watch. Never thought I'd enjoy a 12 minute long video about cans.
That was 12 minutes?!

I come back to this video every now and again. Not because I forget how cans are made, but rather to remind myself of what I consider to be an example of how every teacher should behave.

Explained well and in an engaging way. It's hard to find a video like this that explains concepts in a way that you could show to cub scouts or young children in schools without boring them. Bill gives just enough detail spreads out with diagrams and animations to keep the interest. I didn't even realize the video was nearly over until I saw the first bench on the right side of the screen.
As an aspiring mechanical engineer at the end of my Junior year, I love watching videos like these. I find them to be inspiring and the design beautiful.
I’ve never been so thankful in my life that I don’t have to drink out of a rectangle or ball.

You know you're a good teacher when you can make something as seemingly mundane as the aluminum can into one of the more captivating videos I've ever seen. Almost everybody, including I would say most instructors, struggle to keep explanations in layman's terms without dumbing it down, as almost none of us speak the internal language of whatever industry is presented.

I love the efficient design of this video. Move one camera, have 6 separate stations. Simple, efficient and well done. I love this channel now.
+Mama Rora there is a making of video somewhere on the channel. The effect we wanted was what you described, but we obtained it by moving the tables between takes and keeping the camera stationary.
***** The engineering part of me instantly is trying to speed up the process with ideas like a stationary chair and a rotating, foot-operated spinning platform. This is why I'm going into engineering. Seriously though, this is now one of my top channels. Time to binge watch all of your videos. I love it! Keep up the good work.

There's no talking down, no monotone delivery, just someone sharing great info in an approachable and enjoyable fashion. Looking forward to watching and learning more
Excellent insight. I never thought about how subtly irritating it is when they talk down to you
As a survey archaeologist, I have been using cans to date the age of historic sites discovered in the field. We need to know when sites are over 50 years old. When I began my career, the steel beverage can with church-key openings was historic and all aluminum cans were modern. As time went by, bi-metal beverage cans (steel cans with aluminum tops) became the indicators of historic sites. Then pull tabs became historic. Now we monitor the shape of the aluminum can openings to precisely date the can manufacture year. I was unaware that can diameters had changed through the years, this I learned from this video! In the future, printed bar codes will help archaeologist date sites. However, I am finishing up my career, so will leave bar codes to the new generation!
Oh boy, time for my biannual rewatch of this video.

The production quality of these videos baffles me. I follow many other science channels and they often leave me hanging, as I don't fully understand what is being said. Some even fail to answer the question they themselves pose.
But this channel? I am glued to the screen start to (hilarious) finish, and I understand every word. Every question I come up with is promptly answered.
I applaud you, sir, and your production team.
You can look at early drafts of this video and see our process on our preview page.

This guy is incredible. The production quality is ridiculous. The explanations are flawless. The editing is seamless. The voice is silky. I haven't had any interest in product design and engineering for over a decade but this brought back that interest instantly.
Take a look at 10:13 before getting exit too much about the product design.
Rostislav Svoboda If you paid attention, that was a demonstration of how it's *not* supposed to work. He's demonstrating using the tab solely as a first class lever. The tab acts as 2nd class, to vent, then first to open the top
This are the things I would hear at my college, but explained quickly and interestingly!
And people wonder why some of us call it bs…
I love this channel! The explanations are simple enough for lay persons to understand, but technical enough to make the necessary subtle distinctions obvious!
you can find complex engineering even in the most mundane thing you can imagine and take for granted.

This guy could talk about dirt and still make it interesting.
but dirt IS very interesting... "HUMANS" even turn into dirt! How can we not be interested? ;-)
Beyond Psychology *vsauce music plays* but what even IS dirt? may it be the production of alien lifeforms or maybe just an anomaly in the time space continuum?
Straiden I enjoy Vsauce. ;-)
Are they even alien? Perhaps they are just more of the same. Masses of microbiological symbiosis. Complex consciousness.
Perhaps the universe is a life-form of which we and the so-called aliens are the sensory organs and or brain cells of said universe or lifeform.
Even if the aliens did create the dirt and us, what created the aliens? If something created the aliens then what created the aliens creator? Eventually emergence becomes our answer out of infallible logic.
In regards to space time...
Time is a mathematical tool of measurement. It's a representation of motion. Objects in motion with certain structural geometries will interact with other objects in motion and that will produce the so-called dirt, in the long run...
So that would be correct that dirt is a product of the space time continuum... as are we all.

Worked in this industry for over 30 years and still found this interesting thanks to good presentation style.
5:37 My family had a vending business, and some of our machines had a setup that kept the cans in a series of loops with metal guides that held the top and bottom sides of the cans. Needless to say, when they made the top smaller, the cans could then escape that loop or get jammed, and sometimes led to them falling out and exploding in spectacular fashion.
Other machines though didn't have that problem since they had the guides in the middle.

That's the type of content that KRplus was made for.
I thought it was made for cat videos, and home movies
It was actually made for sharing family videos.

Then the brainiacs at Google decided to demonetize the production of quality videos
The highest compliment that I can give this video is that it is perfect for what it is, and it deserves it fully.
I really enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I was going to. Absolutely loved it. Cannot wait for the next one
you know it's a well made/narrated video when you watch an 11 minute video on how cans are made when you're not an engineer..
True xD, he reminds me of michael stevens
I demand cube shaped cans now.
MickyAvStickyHands I know right! Although I personally would prefer the sphere I think.
So essentially SPAM or soup broth containers?
You could go for wine in a box.
or youghurt in a sphere
Yessir
I have a job interview at a can facility today and have been learning as much as I can on the process of how they are made, this video was super cool thanks
detailed explanation only using the way he explains the entire process & engineering, excellent!! very much understandable and delighted to watch.
Absolutely a design masterpiece. The opener alone is close to brilliant. I’m old enough to remember the pull tabs that littered beaches and wooded areas that cut feet and were a health hazard. The opener that doesn’t detach unless with concerted effort is by itself is fantastic. And it turns to allows a straw to fit! It’s a miracle of engineering.
Not to mention they still expected people to throw the tabs on the ground against all odds and designed them to not cut at your feet if you step on them.
After watching Lud for so long I suppose it’s inevitable this showed up in my recomended
I told KRplus that Ludwig has recommended it to you.
Same, the algorithm is favoring this video again.
Same, and I'm not disappointed
Haha that's weird I thought I was just watching a random video that randomly was recommended to me, but apparently it's because I started watching ludwig so much 😅
Who?
Wow! super comprehensive, easy to understand, great animations. I feel like the amount of research I needed to do just got slashed in half! Thanks ☺️
You're a great man! Remind me of some of my favorite teachers as a kid! Bless your heart 🫶🏽
Amazing. I never knew how incredibly ingenious and complicated our modern cans were. This wasn't just informative, but fun, thank you.
You are welcome.
@@engineerguyvideo you ever making new videos?
@@webber7300 he has a kid now or something so he’s been super busy
@@nuts5388 yea, he's a relative of mine
@@sniper_monke561 that’s cool
I recently discovered another feature of the modern aluminum can. Having left a full beverage can in my car for several below-zero days, I discovered another reason for the concave top and bottom: they were no longer concave! As we all know, water expands when it freezes. It turns out that the concavity in both top and bottom of the can is precisely what is required to absorb the expansion of a frozen beverage. The can was still intact, but fully ballooned out at both top and bottom. Try this yourself. It’s quite impressive! (And, when the liquid thaws, the can retains the ballooned shape but has a negative pressure.)
Whoa!
Arlin Geyer woah that’s genius
I actually recently thought of trying this out to see if the can will fail. But I didn't want to risk hearing a bang in the middle of the night from inside my freezer and cleaning up after it 😂
@@marios449 no worries, it should be cold enough. so when the pressure is released the content should, as far as i know, freeze immediatly.
I once had 12 cans explode in my car, leaving cola spatter on every surface, particularly the ceiling fabric, until I finally detailed it years later. Desert heat is not as forgiving as your cold.
randomly remembered this video in a convo w/ a friend. you make it all super fascinating ❤
Never in my life I thought that I'll be so soaked in a video about soda cans. The video has a really nice quality too
