Summary: I visited Lindsay Blackstock at the University of Alberta to learn about her ingenious method for measuring the amount of pee in a pool by looking at the concentration of an artificial sweetener called Acesulfame Potassium. We looked at some samples from some pools in my area to determine how much pee was in them and I conducted an experiment of my own to see what was the cause of that "classic pool smell". I also presented average amounts of pee in large pools as well as an equation to determine how much pee is in your own pool.

Have you even watched the video? Chlorine removes every single type of bacteria form the urine that means its like drinking water with trichlorium.

But what if the pool has a filter system? I mean the pools i go to have drains for excess water that overflows ( due to the displacement of water when someone swims ). The drains are placed throughout the perimeter of the pool. and there is always new water being introduced ( from the a fountain or like tap ish thing at the bottom ), doesn't this make a pool that filters the water to be cleaner? If assuming, the water that is drained is properly treated and then pumped back in.
Wild how you can get a smell of nostalgia if some toddler pees in your local pool

Did you previously enjoy the pool smell?
@@honeynut4048 I did. The problem bow is when I smell it I know that it's because of pee
Chlorine has bleach in it, you can smell chlorine without pee, this is false information, hope it lightened you’re mood :\
@@ellasager6268 Bleach smells differently, also what you are saying is false information
This video DEFIANTLY ruined the pool water smell
Two comments, trichloramine is also formed from (eg) amino acid breakdown from algae and bacteria. And where is the control for the sweetener in urine?
Valid comment though.
Is there a portion that needs to be applied for urea in sweat ?

No wonder why my mom tells me to take a bath after swimming

Or maybe the chloride reacts with your skin after awhile and she'd rather not have a house full of ebola. Just a guess though.
Ya she always says to get the chlorine out of my hair but I think there’s something else
You should clean yourself before and after, preferably with a shower.
The next question: How much pee is in the ocean?

Is that sweetener only excreted in utine, not sweat or saliva or nasal discharge?
this is something i’m wondering as well! i’m no scientest but i did read a couple articles that said that artificial sweeteners are excreted by urine *and* sweat
What abput the controls, were there any artificial sweeteners in the control water?
omg, I never thought about that
Imagine peeing in pool and some random scientist youtuber takes your pee to Canada.

I used to swim competitively and always thought when we went to a pool that smelled extra strong of chlorine, it must be super clean. 😂🤦♂️😢 I'm now ruined for swimming.
Lol I never swim in public pools. I'd rather swim in my bathtub
Me too, Doggy Daddy, me too...
me too :(((((( D:
But pee isn't dirty actually it only smells bad. Your hands are a lot dirtier than your pee..
Lol pee is sterile. If is out of it's sterile environment aka u pee it out it is exposed to enviro pf bacteria stuff grows and it smells. Sane if urine is infected.
There surely were an investigation after this video in the family owning this pool, to determine who was guilty 😆
Oh wow, look i’m laughing 😐

oh lord, now you make me regret swallowing water :/ (in a pool)
I also regret :(
Omg I forgot about that....I did that so much as a kid
Why tf would u even do it??
The fact that the pool smell is caused from pee is never going to leave my mind
WCGwkf I know, I’m never getting in a pool again
Same...
It’s not true. Pools also do smell if no one pees in the water. Sweat and other dirt on your skin is totally enough. That’s why public pools want you to shower before you go swimming so that they don’t need to put in as much chlorine.
So it's not from the chlorine in the water
yeet...
Excelente legenda 😃 consegui acompanhar todo o raciocínio do vídeo. Muito obrigado por compartilhar conhecimento.
This is something I didn’t wanna find out about pools but I’m glad I did.

Genious
The pool smell reality has me a little grossed out.
I like your cut g
Same
Same here! I think it's the urea that reacts with the chlorine, which he said can also come from sweat. Still gross to be swimming in other people's sweat + pee, but I suppose that's a smidge better than a higher amount of just pee.
Well, the source of smell isn't pee anymore, and it's only a product of reaction with urea specifically and nothing else, if that makes it easier
My sister doesn’t believe it
I love your videos. They really inspire me :D
Me watching this after drinking some water from the public pool: 👁👄👁
Note to Self: If pool smells like chlorine - enjoy swimming in pee water.
Then if u leave a bottle of water out in the open and its how then when does it smell like chlorine does that mean pee goes inside the water WOW that GROSS
A little bit of googling tells me that it's from urea, which, like he mentions, is also in sweat. So if you want to feel a little better, you can just assume it's from people being really sweaty.
Who peed in the pool?
You guessed it.

Worst is the fact that the water coming out of your tap is from recycled sewage water. Fun fact, The city of Atlanta has the water intake from the Chattahoochee River for the drinking water is just down stream of where the cities dumps the treated sewage into the Chattahoochee River.
Perfect video to watch while eating
You know, before I watched this video, I actually quite liked the smell of indoor pools. I am now ruined.
No that was probably chlorine budd
Haha
No, it’s just the chlorine.
Same here
Haha
Holy crap that smell was pee?!?!?
Yikes
Pretty gross😕
I used to like that smell...
Now I'm not so sure 😥
That's the thing he didn't clarify, it could come from the sweat's urea reacting with chlorine.
@@francoisenouf8998 fair enough
No, that smell isn't pee per se, it's an odor produced when chloramines react with ammonia-derivatives to form nitrogen trichloride (or trichloramine as referenced in the video). Chloramines react with all organic matter, including pee, sweat, oil and dirt.
If you smell that odor in an outdoor pool, the pool owner/maintainer is not doing a very good job of chemically balancing the pool and something is off. A pool that's maintained correctly will smell like *nothing at all.*
Source: Pool owner for many years.
This guy is teaching things that are on our minds
So does the solution (assuming it's chlorine) that Matt put into bucket A have a smell before going into the bucket? Is chlorine odorless prior to adding to water?
He did state that when he smelled straight chlorine that it had a smell, so it's possible. Plus going down the pool supply aisle at my local Canadian Tire in the summer, I do remember the faint smell of chlorine. But I mean, there's chlorine in most city water, and we don't smell it, so it makes sense.
Well that was certainly interesting 🤔 👊🏻😁🍻

Samples should perhaps be gathered from different parts of the pool, and from different depths, to see if the concentration of artificial sweeteners is more or less equal.
Everyone after watching this video be like:

Long story short, I LOVED swimming to the point I plan to swim every day in college if possible but recently Ive developed Asthma despite it not being a family trait. But now, knowing that Trichloramine can cause asthma, I gotta hold back on swimming....

How does that affect your need to urinate in a pool?
nice transition with the coffee shops
Growing up, our friends had a pool. They had a sign: “We don’t swim in your toilet, don’t pee in our pool”.
apparently you swam in their toilet :p
That's genius
My answer is anyone who wants to is welcome to swim in my toilet.
@@legsopensarah9759 lol
But we don't mind if they swim in our toilet.
😃😃
By the way, we don't want to pee while we are in the pool, also we don't want to swim in other's pee.😝
This Video is more educational than science class
No, because school gives you mental tools, while this video just gives you an end product. You can't really do much with the information given in this video.
Der Jens rwooch
@@user-uo9ve6mf7b No
Science class at most schools usually isn't taught by someone who actually cares about or knows much about science. Imaginary numbers are usually introduced as some curious entity in algebra; usually taught without context to rotation, you never learn the more advanced applications like quaternions for rotation in 3 space without gimbal lock (you usually won't learn about these unless you happen to take an advanced course in computer graphics). Most K-12 teachers have never even come close to this level of education in math or science themselves.
