Gav and Dan pull out the scariest things on shelf, and try not to destroy all the expensive equipment in the room with them. Don't mess with large Neodymium magnets. They will crush you.

    Hope nobody minds but I’m going to start uploading more frequently. We’ve been filming like crazy. I just need to keep up with the editing!

    Dan's sly and subtle Prince Albert joke was fantastic
  • @silvertonebass1
    Dan with the perfectly straight faced and subtle prince Albert joke was just perfect
  • @smartereveryday
    That was so incredibly violent! I share Dan’s respect for huge magnets. I feel like they constantly want to smash my fingers off.
  • @ronaldwojtylko4375
    In order to dispose of the magnet shards, a propane torch works wonders to reduce or eliminate the magnetism.

    No joke, the best friend energy is wholesome af, and their reunion video was one of the happiest things I’ve seen on YouTube.
  • @Kanzu999
    5:12 I love this interaction. "There were sparks though" really got me lol.
  • @marckart66
    You guys should do this again, but under water! I'd love to see the compressed water exit all these cracks.
  • @superskullmaster
    Take a moment to realize that these guys have been entertaining us for over a decade.

    "I've removed my watch, my belt, my Prince Albert and my wallet" I coughed up a lung from the burst of laughter mid-sentence.
  • @BuffPomsky
    Gotta always appreciate dan and gav letting us visualize our childhood playtimes. I remember having so kuch fun playing with tiny magnets and seeing this at this scale is awesome
  • @brandon2076
    When Dan said "There were sparks though" my heart completely melted
  • @mikefelber5129
    Gav relating the magnets meeting to when he first saw Dan after the pandemic was so freakin’ adorable “there definitely were sparks”
  • @TheRealTechy112
    The sheer amount kinetic energy that gets formed in that span of time to blast those two magnets to pieces is INSANE, like honestly that is terrifying
  • @PhunkBustA
    7:41 watching that piece detach and reattach is oddly satisfying.
  • @Lonyw
    What's even cooler is how the large shards were spinning rapidly and then instantly stopped rotation because of the magnetism
  • @skipton9511
    Two incredible views - the view of the truly frightening power that those magnets have as they self-destruct and the view in the shadows of Gav trying to keep it together when Dan said that he had removed his Prince Albert 😂🤣
  • @DanielBloom1
    I really appreciate that you guys have chill energy for your videos. even when it's crazy stuff, you're always pretty chill and not like, yelling at us and trying to hype us up.
  • @FantmHex
    So cool to see! I'd also be interested in seeing magnets like these collide underwater, just to see if it'd turn out any differently or if there would be some neat shockwaves
