Would YOU sleep on a bed of nails? 👀

[@Boxing_90s_hiphop]

Nice vid

[@Boxing_90s_hiphop]

8 years I have been here

[@robotthom1otherwiseduck628]

me and the homies do this for 6 pence

[@Royce355]

Yes I would

[@thomasvanwyk]

Yes why would you not

[@DivinePeace1102]

My dad, a high school physics teacher, goes a step further. He builds two, he lies on one, puts the second on top of him, so he is in a sandwich of sorts. Then he will put bricks on top of the second half and ask a student to break the bricks with a sledge hammer. He's done that experiment over two dozen times, and he always turns out fine.

[@Joooooooooooosh]

Karate instructors all through the 80s and 90s have been exposed.

[@k.c.2213]

Mythbusters did this for their first tour. I got to pick up the cinder-blocks at Home Depot when they came to our location I worked at :)

[@CurtainJustCurtain]

[@randylaytonorangeboy]

Wow she fully committed to running into that wall. Grace's mom has the best comment.

[@SeanBZA]

Being a drywall wall I kind of worried it would actually break, because drywall is not the strongest material, barely able to hold up it's own mass. By me running into a wall is not going to end well, because brick walls, and those nails, even with the sledge hammer, will simply be bent before they make it past the point into the brick.

[@lettychavez2253]

Boooooo

[@lettychavez2253]

Jk

[@lettychavez2253]

Yeah honestly me too

[@lettychavez2253]

BTW I did the booooo first

[@notold37]

I could lay on a bed of nails, but I'll stick to my comfortable bed, as I'm a side sleeper

[@tildessmoo]

I thought the same thing; I figure I'd probably put an eye out. Pretty sure it takes less pressure to puncture an eyeball than skin.

[@giandeau]

Some important things to consider when building a bed of nails: not all the nails in the box are going to be exactly the same length, so you want to digard any outliers; a pre-drilled base is definitely easier, but it's better to drill holes that the nails fit snugly in, nd use a slightly thicker base, so that there is less chance of wobble; do not use galvanized nails, because the coating can be a skin irritant.

[@dc9664]

whoa...crazy. try walking across hot coals next. always found the physics of that fascinating...

[@TheKingofRandom]

*writes that down*

[@rmannayr2129]

GRACE TOTALLY NAILED THIS ONE!

[@breadmusic1]

r/angryupvote r/puns

[@redeye8075]

I’ve done this before they had one at a science museum. There was a plastic sheet that you would lay down on that had thousands of holes and then you would press a button and slowly the nails would pass through the holes so that you could get comfortable beforehand

[@TheHappyZappy]

Ya the Boston museum of science had (or maybe still had?) one like that

[@rebeccaoertell6941]

Same, that’s literally exactly what I thought about when I saw the video

[@nothingishere4091]

Wonder works in Florida also had one

[@mothtv]

She said "it feels like something is poking me" and I creased up laughing.

[@We-ROCK-The-World]

Doctor: "So how exactly did you manage to puncture both of your lungs, and get a bunch of holes in your hand?" Grace: "Well..."

[@danielcroft3923]

Best eyebrows in science

[@TheKingofRandom]

AYYYY OOOOO THANK YOU 🙏🏼 - Grace

[@DeanTheDoctor]

Thanks for the laughs! Stay awesome out there Grace! 😊🌎✨

[@scarebear83]

It's a similar concept like with the accupressure mats. It definitely is helpful to the body. Instead of a bed of nails, I'd recommend the mats. Probably a bit better for you in the long run.

[@kiv3745]

@text me on telegram wtf do you mean??

[@keshonsavage]

@1:57 is how people get face cuts in combat . If you make contact to the face with the tip of your knuckle its usually how you break skin and sometimes bones.

[@DJR000]

I want to borrow some of her meds, because she is definitely on something.

[@ResidentKlinton]

They have one of these at a place near me (the McWane Center) and it's awesome! It still kinda hurts to lie down on but it doesn't break the skin.

[@UtopssAKAPJ]

looks comfy 😁 love Grace's enegry

[@TheWerttyFiles]

I've seen it happen at work but a determined fist has no problem going through some types of walls 😂

[@unchaineddefender]

Ahh!! The balloons- I am glad I wasn’t there XD It looks like you startled yourself!

[@omkr0122]

As an Indian who has seen stuff like this in Varanasi (Kashi) I will say 'Nailed it!'

[@legiran9564]

"I want to lay you down in a bed of roses For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails"

[@coolnegative]

❤ U Grace! You're so fun!

[@ftlPhysicsGuy]

Stopped at 3:14 to make a pure guess at the outcome. I'm imagining that no matter how you sandwich the plywood board, those nails are going to be wobbly. If you lie down on them and they shift around -- some one way, some the other, and some still pointing up -- I'm guessing that would make for an uncomfortable nap. I'll see soon enough, I suppose.

[@ftlPhysicsGuy]

Watched to the end... So, they're not all pointing straight up, and I'm guessing some of them might wobble. If they were nailed through a board and all the same height, it would distribute the weight more evenly. But, since Grace didn't mention them moving around, I guess I was wrong...

[@giandeau]

@@ftlPhysicsGuy no, you are right. It is preferable to predrill the holes (rather than hammer in the nails), so there is more consistency and structure to your bed.

[@IVIBIVI]

She really nailed this one!

[@doublenickelbob]

Now you need a blanket of nails

[@rmannayr2129]

SHE NAILED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@GaryLiseo]

Neat experiment I wouldn’t recommend doing this at home

[@yunuochen3125]

2:14 you ok girl??!!??😢

[@ammarahsan2157]

I'm back to this channel after a long time. Last vid I watched was when they tried to make diamonds using peanut butter and coal.

[@qwertyuio847]

i blew up my microwave doing that when i was 10 😭

[@PercydeRoloFangirl]

I layed on one of these at the Boston museum of science it was surprisingly comfortable for laying on semi sharp metal

[@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

You nailed it girl 🤗🖖

[@BeastFitness472]

i get it lol

[@pah23]

You're doing a fantastic job Grace, thank you for all your hard work!! I always love your videos ❤️😍

[@braydensonaslaughtmbve545]

One day, I would like to sleep on that bed and feel no pain on it.

[@kiv3745]

What-

[@neko5347]

she risked either take a nap for an hour, or forever

[@akbarrmd7714]

Bed of nails felt nice, like accupuncture.

[@67ken67]

The closer the nails are together the less pain there will be spreading out the weight yeah

[@personalclasslog6972]

Imagine falling asleep and accidentally rolling over and facing the needles. Your eyes will get punctured or severely scratched.

[@holbein1998]

You got nailed! 🔥

[@crazyconeyislandkid]

HEY!! You can now join a circus side show lol 🤣 “she feels no pain when napping on a bed of nails. She is known as the pain proof scientist”

[@flyingworm2.038]

I feel like this would be a season of saw.

[@thescalystorm]

1:27 Where'd you get that dragon in the background? I would love to have one!

[@Kelbeangirl93]

You guys should see what coffee does to random objects over time

[@Kelbeangirl93]

I got an idea for you guys will a baseball become moldy sitting in coffee for a week or so ?

[@WhiteIndoraptor]

I would never sleep on a bed of nails ouch!! 😖

[@coltonkoepp655]

So how is it Chip Gains is always able to bust through walls during demo day in HGTV's show flxer upper

[@jupiterhero7479]

Hot 1000°C Lava Vs Strong Battery Acid I want this reaction to satisfy my curiosity!!!

[@jdsusn12]

Let's do it

[@tainaj7088]

I can’t believe that they actually did this. One wrong move and your gone

[@popstar8799]

That sounds painful but also not and I would not sleep on a bed of nails

[@jamesblanchard8053]

Nailed it.

[@sajidmahmood6185]

Who misses Thomson 😭

[@ahowie999]

Me😢😢😢

[@amcobb90]

I’ve done that before in a museum in Florida

[@derekb8377]

Agent Mulder says it's more comfortable than a futon. 😁

[@1227silver]

I love how funny you are love at😂

[@XxMashadoxX]

They have a bed of nails at the museum of science in Boston

[@AllenSchoepflin]

I got to lay on a bed of nails back in high school

[@ryenann]

The nail bed is based on Physics

[@ziprius6551]

It’s been 5 years since I watched TKOR.I used to watch them with my sister and I think they have not changed a bit.Keep up the good work👍

[@KCgo2girl101]

"Keep Science-ing! I love you!" What a loving and supportive mom!!! 😍😍😍 She's the best!

[@idreadFell365]

It’s not as bad as maybe on a bed made of legos.

[@user-lm3tk5ls6k]

Bro this is something from wonder works

[@PC-mc5qw]

You should have put pillows on the flat side of the nails

[@princeofrandom6734]

40s of butt conversation 4:40

[@Flaming_Pulsar]

If you do go through the wall (without breaking said wall) then you've just won the quantum lottery

[@davidhawley8570]

Circus performers in India did this with just underware. You should have not used galvanized nails.

[@live4mint]

what if use hudrogel under it?

[@MMCRBB124]

It's look like Vista Afterlife vid.

[@danyz250f]

That poor tkor house

[@MrGohariqbal]

I love TKOR

[@TheKingofRandom]

We love you!!!

[@ilovepedalharpstheybeautif6692]

Ouch that looks like it would hurt you're crazy a bed of nails

[@nuhashrahman8408]

You NAILED it

[@outdrlivin4737]

I do shows on the bed of nails. People standing on me. Doing the sandwich, breaking blocks on me while I lie on the bed of nails. I'd show pictures of it, but it won't let me post them.

[@melissamaxwell4792]

I layed on a bed of nails at the Upside Down House and it was really comfy

[@marvelfan9310]

OMG😱😱😱 I saw you at the Upside Down House

[@johnkapel2128]

If I was there with you laying on that bed of nails I would not be sleeping I'll tell you that much.😅

[@kiv3745]

I literally feel like I'm having an panic attack seeing you sit on the nails despite me not even laying in the nails

[@Theplaugebunny]

How warm does my bed get after getting 8hrs of sleep? And how fast does the heat decrease if I get up too pee? (3 minutes)??? I can’t sleep help.

[@survivethenightstnyoutube]

it is irony to see my favorite channle turning from doing science and fun stuff from hungry fame succubus

[@carstenkjller6680]

Be carefull not to break Your nails 😂😂😂

[@cricketmad4871]

Like to see jawbreaker in Cotton candy machine

[@ChristofferOrrmalmUtsi]

Yaaaay a new TKOR video! This is awesome!💪💪😇😎❤

[@TheKingofRandom]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@ChristofferOrrmalmUtsi]

@@TheKingofRandom Always really entertaining! Thanks Grace and TKOR crew!😇👍

[@thegoldengood4725]

only people who know these things would say this is comfy.. what would a real most comfortable bed be like? And how uncomfortable is the most uncomfortable?

[@chrisgreen521]

Oh snap😂

[@kaitlyngambill4146]

you cant die frum it but it is scary

[@Project-Taco]

Whoa😲

[@tUBEwATCHER890]

That aim is how you give up your hand for a while. (Atendofvideo)

[@ERROR-df8bs]

like why is grace like way funner then the other ppl like what

[@alimustafa7680]

So I sleep on my stomach or my side. Could you next time try it that way

[@roblosst4647]

That was painful if you sleep on that

[@ericpogorzelski904]

i would not find a bed of nails comfortable it looks like uncomfortable

[@calisawce6584]

I have nails in my butt but they’re not in my skin…Leaves a lot to the imagination

[@ttwbushcraftandoutdoors6473]

Take the jacket and jeans off, you can't feel them

[@subtosb7376]

I love the vids

[@mr.ripples2143]

Wow so amazing

[@brycehampton7649]

You look like Aladdin jumped over the guy and the soldier squash you one jump song 🎵

[@will-.-4316]

I now have a human sized hole in my wall :(

[@vdeadant]

Ooh..hey...I missed you..wooooo

[@avaiscoolfrfr]

*Sounds nice* But no it wouldn’t that much because i was once in a place here in Copenhagen Denmark where there was this thing called “experimentarium”. It’s basiclly just a science place like a museum but bigger and much funner.

[@Kind-ofaBigDeal]

This reminds me of when I was in prekindergarten and we stepped on multiple eggs vrs 1 in order to show team work I love nostalgia

[@FATTONYKAUAI]

Watch grace get nailed

[@jamesplays..]

I did go through the wall now I’m somewhere with wet carpet and mono yellow walls
