In this video we also tested our solid aluminum bat vs the tungsten baseball to see what would happen. It was rather destructive.

Are there any more iterations of this concept or particular experiments you'd like to see us try next? Or do you think we should end the series with this video? We made carbon fiber bats in the past, but we were never completely happy with the finished results, maybe we should revisit that? Would love to hear some of your thoughts. Also, if you missed our previous video where we absolutely obliterated many objects with this same sphere, you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/ne-outEGdhM

put the ball on a tee so you can really line up a shot, also a tungsten golfball would be fun (and cheaper)
-
You should see if Mark Rober can make a make a machine to throw the tungsten ball and another machine to swing the tungsten bat. That would be so cool to actually see them in action.
-
The weight never fully impressed me until I saw those grown men absolutely struggling to pick it up with 2 fingers. That’s wild haha, great video!
-
For those wondering, there are 6 elements denser than tungsten. Plutonium which is made in nuclear reactors Neptunium which decays away very fast, half of its gone in 2 days Rhenium which is 5 times rarer than gold Platinum which is about as rare as gold Iridium is 5 times rarer than gold And osmium which is also 5 times rarer than gold So yeah I don't think anyone's beating this (I got this info from Google so may be wrong, stuffs definintly rare though)
-
Funfact, if you wanted to put the same amount of weight in a metal sphere that was just 15% smaller, it would require the heaviest metal in the world, Osmium. If we were to recreate this smaller sphere at 9.75 lbs for the sake of comparison of this ball, at a going rate of $908,907/lbs, it would cost $8,861,849 to achieve. I would ballpark it at $10M to make 'the heaviest baseball' and it would weigh roughly 11.25 lbs.

You should load the ball into a pitching machine and create the ball park’s deadliest weapon.
-
Soak the ball in a saturated iron oxide solution. Then cover it in very fine aluminum powder. See if hitting it with the bat will start a thermite reaction.
-
What's wild is that regular baseball made out of whatever material MLB decides to use that particular season (they aren't standardized, somehow) can ALSO split bats clean down the middle like that when a professional pitcher throws to a professional hitter. So if you're ever wondering about the power these guys have: they can get similar results to hitting a 9.7 lb ball, by hitting a ~5.2 oz (1/155th the weight) ball made out of a softer material
-
The fact it split down the middle means that was a perfect bat
-
That recoil tho... my wrists hurt just watching this 😂😂😂
-
Can someone chop up the part where they’re struggling to pick it up with two fingers and repost captioned “3 guys act like a normal baseball is heavy”
-
The reason the wood bat split down the middle like that is because you hit it on the wide part of the grain. Gotta hit where the grain is tight. Very cool video though guys!
-
I bought a 1kg cylinder of tungsten a bunch of years back and it was under $100 (Australian dollars). I see the price has gone up substantially! Edit: Wait ... the ball here 4.3kg! No wonder.

This in Destin's cannon...

Yeah well I'm gonna make one out of depleted uranium! 😂

Love the multiple camera angles. Well done!!

You guys have done a great job of branching off from your original channel concept and keeping it interesting. It’s been a pleasure to watch y’all grow :)

Where did the guy go who licks everything?
