You gotta get Destin on this. Do a collab with Smarter Every Day. He'll figure it out.

the crack on the other end is where the shockwave came together

Yep. Another video that should have been 30 seconds long.

The seeming paradox that a glass is at the same time a liquid and a solid is not easily reconciled. Glasses are "solids" produced by cooling a molten liquid fast enough that crystallization does not occur at the normal freezing point. Instead, the liquid supercools into the thermodynamic never-never land of metastability: kinetically settled enough to exist as a well-defined state of matter, yet not truly thermodynamically stable. As the supercooled liquid cools to lower and lower temperatures, the viscosity of the liquid increases dramatically. That happens because as thermal energy becomes ever less available, chemical bonds within the liquid constrain the atomic motion more and more. As the glass cools, the time it needs to demonstrate liquid behavior (the "viscous relaxation time") increases and eventually reaches extremes. At the so-called glass transition temperature, the relaxation time is on the order of a few minutes. On a short timescale, the "liquid" glass will appear solid, but after a short while, it can be seen to be slowly flowing, like incredibly thick syrup. At still lower temperatures, the relaxation time reaches values that are truly geologic, i.e., many millions of years. Window glass at room temperature has a nearly incalculable relaxation time, approaching the age of the universe itself. For all practical observations, this glass is a solid. But its solidity is in the eye of the beholder.

enerjy transfer and the midel is soled and the glass is serounded by air and totely free so it knocs it out

2:26 " *Im going to do whats called an pro gamer move* "

He just killed him with the doogle XD

What u need a 16 min vid for a simple test

2:42

I believe it cracking on the other side is kenetic energeyerey

You could have made this into a 2 second video

Make a video of you gluing all the pieces back together

Intro: "EA be like!"

It’s just like when you get hit with lighting and it travels through your body and blows your toe off.

Soooooo.... He Shot The Fortune Teller Which Means He Shot Himself

youre probably sneezing inhaled glass particles lol

Now we know how the glass skulls were made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those first two minutes were amazing

The fact that the ball was cracking on the opposite side is pure physics. The place of the reverse crack is called the "antipodal point". When hitting a spherical object, the impulse is distributed over the entire surface as a wave until it converges at one point. If the impact is on an ideal sphere, this point will be directly opposite the place of impact. The more deviations from the ideal, the greater the point displacement. The effect is approximately the same as if you throw a stone into calm water, the collapsed wave gives a recoil equal in strength to ± 80% of the initial impulse. Such things are actively studied in neurosurgery and astrophysics in order to understand the consequences of traumatic brain injuries OR (especially caps for very smart ones below) meteorite falls.

This is LITERALLY what happens: *>

Guys aim is trash.

He gotta a Grammy for these intros

You know a newton's cradle? Where the ball hits more balls and the force goes through and sends the last ball swinging? That's what's happening with the bullet causing cracks on the back. Your welcome.

Pascal's principle of transmission of fluid-pressure.. because glass is a fluid..

2:29 Pary this you f*cking casual

Spalling...

If nobody answered, The outside of the glass ball is structurally inferior to the inside of the ball. I think when making them the glass cools faster on the outside giving it a weak structure. The inside of the glass remains molten, cools slower, and forms stronger crystal structures on the interior. this may be why the inside does not shatter and transfers the energy out the weakness of the outer shell

imagine slow mo guys collabing on this video. I know they did like glass cracking episode but this would be way cooler.

I don't know if this has already been answered but the effect of the glass breaking on the opposite side to impact is spalling, the impact sends shockwaves through the glass and where they converge again on the other side they kick off a scab of glass. Same way HESH shells work!

Non newtonian fluids

That 44 is the biggest mix of a desert eagle and a S&W

The cracking on the back is a result of its shape and density. Think about it, what does an object need to do to stop a bullet? Disperse its energy. All the energy from the impact is transferred through, and across the surface in a circular pattern, of the object you hit. As the energy travels further away from the impact less damage is done to the surrounding material. The denser a material is, typically the better it is at dispersing impact energy though this isn’t always the case. Now, here’s why it cracks on the backside. Most, I’d go so as to say 95% of targets are flat or slightly curved. These targets are spheres. All that energy from the hit is being transferred through the material to the backside, where the energy that was being transferred along its surface also converges at the exact opposite side of the hit, aka the antipodal point. Now it’s just a case of constructive interference. All the energy that made it to the antipode of the hit combines and cracks the glass. Simple physics, really cool result and an interesting way to learn about antipodal points.

I would absolutely loved to have seen that 50 cal shot in slow mo

14:30

I think the energy is being absorbed through the ball to the other side and thats why there's smaller cracks on the other side. I THINK

4:00 “it’s gonna be crazy.” 😂

I wonder if anyone has made a DU 50 Cal round “ depleted uranium”

ok braveheart..

A 50cal, real right! Of corse it would destroy a glass ball. Would have been better off trying a lead ball...

The spirits might be real, but your'e gonna have to give me another $50

How do you not have an ultra high res slo mo camera yet?! Phone the slo mo guys and enquire plz!

This video makes my head hurt 😭

Dude seems like a really cool middle aged frat boy

"ive got one more of those big balls" *smiles*

Hellow Matt, In Russia you are very popular blogger!!!

I would speculate that the energy pulses, from the primary side, transmit to a common spot exactly on the other side, creating another "ghost impact". That secondary impact is probably 40% of the energy of the primary, giving you the results. This is due to the near perfect geometry of the glass ball as it perfectly transmits the waves of energy, pooling to the other side at nearly the same time.

My Guess would be that the glass ball is of a layered structure, illustrated by the pealing layers after each hit. The surface layers of glass have just enough flexibility to carry the impact wave from the bullet, carrying it around the sphere without cracking the glass layer itself. I would imagine that its only when the impact wave travels the sphere and collides with itself at a certain centralised point, that enough energy is maintained to crack the glass layer on the opposite side of target? I picture a meteor impacting an ocean planet and the displaced energy in waves, traveling the surface of the globe (perhaps only with enough energy to lift the water 20 ft and falling). However when the waves meet and collide at the same time at the same spot, does enough energy remain to lift the water 100ft for example. Even if the energy is dispersed quickly at that point? Can some one confirm if right in thinking this?

Good question. I have no clue whatsoever

Its kinda like earthquakes no?

The Shockwave travels throug the globe and cracks the back

It's like Newton's cradle but instead the energy is transferring through a crystalline structure rather than multiple ball bearings of equal mass.

DemolitionRanch should use super high speed camera to see how bullets to penetrate

The reason for the ripples I believe is because the shockwave from the impact turns the glass semisolid, and after they travel to the opposite side of the globe, they refract or reflect or something off of each other losing energy in the process, the more energy the farther those ripples bounce back. (Just a theory, a ballistics theory) Also, do not do what Matt consistently did here, which was breathe in the powdered silicates from the glass, it's on the same level, if not worse than breathing in fiberglass particles, you can damage your lungs after a few minutes of exposure. Prolonged exposure can lead to Pulmonary Fibrosis. Be careful and always wear respiratory protection when handling or damaging the integrity of normal glass.

Slow motion is very good 👍

All I need to see is that ball vs. 1 shot from the Barrett M82a1

cuz the force is too strong to crack the 6 oclock

Постреляй по раскаленным шарам от подшипника , большим шарам.

Love my demo ranch camo hoodie!

Reminds me of T1000

Imagine this ur design

hes basically being an asshole to the person that goes metaldetecting in 150 years

i put this one in the boot bruh that is the size of my whole boot holy

The force from the bullet is so fast and powerful that when it hits it sends a big force threw the ball

5:15 😂😂😂

Matt go see LockPickingLawyer's video "[944] .50 BMG vs. Strongest Padlock in the World (Squire SS100CS)" show them what a .50 cal can do!!!

Kinetic energy blows the back off the force of the bullet transfers through the glass bending because it's a spherical surface deeper impact bigger the bend that's why the first shots on the big ball went almost straight.

When the bullet hits the glass it makes the initial crack and the kinetic energy travels to the back and has no where to go so it makes a small crack

It's the hardest and strongest in the middle, so when a bullet starts to go into it, it stops. Because of how much force goes through the middle across the ball, whenit leaves on the softer back it makes it shatter.

Glass dust. It’s what is making you sneeze and not breathe.

I am disappointed the “algorithm” recommended this to me, And I am disappointed I clicked on it.

Dude got spicy with the intro

2:29 casual murder

? i am very confused help me figure out what the heck is going on

The glass creates layers when cooling

Welcome back to a new episode of making art with demolitionranch! Today we use guns and glass balls.

Not to be rude but you have white hair please don’t die soon I will die with yo

I really like his stuff but wow! Lungs full of tiny glass shards... Not smart.

"9mm straight at my tiny ball" ngl that raised some eyebrows around me

throwing the ball, seems like a lefty, my goodness!! Keep on shooting, you're better at that

It’s like Newton’s balls. The force is traveling through the glass and when it reaches the surface in the rear it has to go somewhere so it goes out

Magnifying-

Dude! Glass dust?! It's terrible dongerous, arghh use a mask!!!!

I waited the whole video for that bmg! Worth It

Imagine watter ripples. But the ball is the surface, vibration will stop somewhere. And that is, in the other end

You destroy the glass ball because the fortune teller scammed you

That's more interesting than i thought.

What a intro

Classic scammer gets scammed moment.

Can you destroy a tesla model s with the 50 bmg? Please????

The vibration of the impact shakes the glass and brake it when it vibrate to fast the glass will collapse and shatter a part of it. So a shockwave.

glass is technically a liquid, so the force of the bullet can travel directly through it causing Ripples and waves. it's what's called a supercooled liquid

Think of it as Newton's cradle.

silicosis has entered the chat

I LOVE this part 14:13

14:10 did you seriously expect the glass sphere to survive after he pulls the BIG BOY out?

Think of it like lightning. It's usually the exit and entrance that you notice damage on.
