I wonder how often Ellen is calmly asked to "explain her thinking"

[@catjazzhappycat7273]

I don't think anyone is prepared to really know what Ellen is thinking, lol.

[@DiceSully]

"Do what you did before but with more rockets". Ah the kerbal space program approach, I like it!

[@fett01]

Ellen places pole between two boulders. John loses it. Luke is oblivious. This is madness and i love it

[@HavocHounds1988]

Of course she ended up putting the pole there. I've said before I think her and Mike have the dirtiest minds out of the whole group. Also, I was waiting for her to put two bombs on one end of the pole lol.

[@writeonshell]

And Ellen just plays it so cool, as if she did nothing at all 😂 there was a tiny giggle that showed she knows exactly what she did

[@HavocHounds1988]

@@writeonshell Lol, yeah she knew exactly what she was doing.

[@smudgusinterruptus2246]

Jon losing his mind in the background is my favorite part of this video 😂😂

"Dinging pole"

[@heathernicol3026]

Jon, wheezing: Stop… saying… dinging pole… **please**…!! Luke: I won’t! Poor Jon. xD

[@Zoso14892]

@@heathernicol3026Jon is the voice of the audience, I don't think we can realistically deny that.

[@laura121684]

@@Zoso14892 He absolutely is. We have collectively chosen Jon to be our representative in the studio.

[@max_2da_max336]

This challenge (especially the end) has Big Pinsir Energy

[@jcsmiley1255]

The whole time Ellen is trying to balance the weight there's a stabilizer right there lol

[@travisspaulding5835]

This also could’ve been over very quickly if they had just tried double stacking the springs. The failures at the start were very entertaining though 😂

[@jcsmiley1255]

Agreed travis

[@seang5815]

[8:54] Ellen has been spending too much time with Luke. Her refusal to give up on adding more weight to her rocket, even after Luke kindly suggests trying something else.

[@travisspaulding5835]

“My dingaling! My dingaling! I want you to play with my dingali-“ “This act is over!”

[@xenogil180]

Never thought I would learn about real world physics from a Zelda game

[@awmperry]

I just spent half an hour listening to three adults chat about their dingalings.

[@lucithedemonminer]

Same but for me it's not newsworthy. 😮

[@Imperial_Squid]

🎵 Ooooh, you touch my tralala, ooooh you touch my dingaling 🎵

[@g.i.e]

Weeble + dinging pole + weight = big hammer

[@ChrisAdamscomedy]

The reward was the all the ding-a-lings we made along the way.

[@zacharysmith4856]

Physics is cool. Jane would be proud. 😎 Wonderful job to all.

[@contemptuoushomer6136]

It would have been cool for her to come in and judge Ellen's rocket bell dinger and physics at the end!

[@katfromthekong414]

This went off the rails soooo fast 🤣🤣🤣

[@catlover7466]

Jon was very mature the entire challenge didn’t laugh at any weird innuendos related to the big balls at all

[@AidanRatnage]

ding-a-ling

[@mar_speedman]

Stop calling them big balls *please!*

[@mattgardiner744]

Luke is actively trying to kill Jon at this point

[@EthanMiguelScott]

dinging poles

[@zxuiji]

20:45, I'd also try using that wheel and the poles to swing a rock at the bell instead, slap a spring underneath the rock and a couple rockets on either side of it to give the wheel a helping hand and it should swing quite quickly

[@griffingene1]

My god, to just have a small window showing all your reactions would be priceless!

[@MrChapmanification]

Never thought I would enjoy these challenges so damn much

[@sebastianwlodarczyk]

5:13 - That giggle:D If you're only going to watch 5 seconds of this vid, that's the timestamp (I mean, watch the whole thing when you can, but that part is just pure gold🙂)

[@Therandomduck8]

Never forget the stabilisers

[@joray5756]

I love these challenges so much. They make my Saturday.

[@tryan1298]

Ellen has such an infectious laugh..... Like whooping cough.

[@PaulhusBrittany]

Metal ding a ling 😂 god that just made my day.

[@mmobofficial]

16:07 - me trying to talk dirty

[@corbanromm5986]

I’m never heard so much physics and math talk in a Outside xtra video. Absolutely excellent! 😂

[@artemisDev]

In the end the ding-a-ling just needed a head to reach it's true potential

[@Ahhhhhh_Book_Monster]

I never knew I needed this much dingaling talk in my life, haha

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

These tears of the kingdom challenges are very entertaining. Thanks for all the hard work that you do.

[@esteban280889]

Loving this series

[@classycasual3910]

What a marathon. So glad your ding-a-ling made it🎉

[@Giga-lemesh]

Beautiful simplicity

[@dexterpearson8689]

This was fun. Not sure what the next TOTK challenge may be, but one thing's already for sure: Luke, Ellen, and Jon should get together for another video series like this in the future. Thank you to all 3 of you for making me laugh so much before getting ready for work in the morning. Still subscribed.

[@apocrypha5363]

Link is cosplaying as Louise Belcher.

[@beesneedee6237]

I wanna know what would've happened if they'd put the other stake on top, small pressure point and all that

[@ARUCARDFTEPES]

I don't want these to end, how about viewer suggested challenges next?

[@phyllissmith9426]

Yes Luke I would need a long pole to make the ding a ling work...yikes. Thanks for the fun.

[@Rubrickety]

I don't think Ganondorf's severed _head_ is quite what you'd be looking at for this one...

[@mar_speedman]

No. No! NO!

[@Strikerdoodle]

The way I just put a giant pile of linked rockets under it and got a crazy number.

[@Y2KK94]

To Jon, Ellen, and Luke, I did a similar thing just moments ago on the bell ring. I have proof on my album in the Switch and my phone with a score of 193. Note the lower scores can be helpful to farm opals (25) on the last upgrade for elephant helm.

[@XxRaveRabbitxX]

And here I was thinking my score of 185 was impressive 😂

[@TheWretchedOwl]

Imagine if this has been a live stream, with the audience shouting out a thousand suggestions at once 😂

[@tinatope1485]

Lol I think that is why they didn't do these challenges as live streams.

[@HavocHounds1988]

Well on the plus side someone would have mentioned the stabilizer when it came to the boulder rocket contraption.

[@tomireland3644]

Oxtra: Calmly placing 'Ding-a-ling' between two boulders, absolutely destroying Jon Supervising teacher : 'Ellen Punrifica Rose you stop that THIS INSTANT!`

[@amandalynn1173]

How is the phrase "dinging-pole" worse than "ding-a-ling"?

[@KGuitarH]

This game is such a definition of BONKERS it's just beautiful.

[@phyllissmith9426]

"Why doesn't it know what we're doing..", my guess would be because WE don't know what we're doing. haha

[@AngelBeatYunara]

That s so much dinging.

[@Michael_Lindell]

Y'know what's not a challenge? Liking (and 'liking') this video!

[@iandoddsblah]

I did 3 poles on the stake, then a spring on top and a barrel on top of that. Bickety bam

[@ThreadbareInc]

You know, if you're moving in a straight line, it doesn't matter which end the added weight is on. You could've put the metal boulders or barrels at the bottom of the spring to create an equally loud noise.

[@RH1812]

The weekly challenge has come

[@zxuiji]

32:50, just thought, maybe go back to the big rock idea but instead of putting the poles on top just put them underneath the spring to connect it to a stake in the ground and just spring the rock instead

[@austinfallen]

I wonder what difference adding a bomb flower would make lol

[@jamesw6374]

I loved the video but I’m here to show some appreciation for Jon’s epic intro

[@thajocoth]

It took me a bunch of tries, but my best score on this involved a stake to stabilize, poles to bring the launching surface as close to the bell as I could, a spring at the top, and a metal barrel attached to the spring to punch the the bell with when sprung. All attached stuff, so it kinda ceases to be ballistics, but is still a very forceful device. It got me the needed score for the best reward. So watching y'all go through a very similar path to reach a very similar device was interesting. The highest I've _seen_ involved somebody getting themselves up into the sky layer and doing a very precise downwards attack, but it took them forever to get that high up, and the precision necessary is too much for me to do. I'm not doing that.

[@jokiyatrott5316]

ITS SCIENCE!!!😂

[@Becktastic01]

How do you guys get Santa Claus to do your intro screen? You got connections?

[@jennasloan396]

Mega ding dong

[@frodobaggins7710]

If all else fails, use your ding-a-ling

[@spencergwin9454]

Chuck Berry would approve

[@zxuiji]

10:41, shoulda put a rocket between 3 of those, 3 * 60ish nets around 180, should get that 150 easy

[@happyhafer1403]

dingeling metal box... ringeling stick... "come to the dingeling"... "we could try two dingeling-poles"... "you didn't actually have your flat things on the flat target"... "you made a crumple-zone"... "a long dingelinging pole" you guys are hilarious out of context! if you try this again, how about trying a stabilizer-lollipop-ringeling-stick?

[@tinatope1485]

Absolutely brilliant nonsense 🤣

[@zxuiji]

13:25, there's room for rocket around that, could try having something with rockets underneath rest on top and then trigger both that and the rockets, maybe that will pick up even more speed?

[@BrianLocke]

Wouldn't have been better just to make a platform to fly above the bell, and then drop a rock down on it from up high?

[@Broll00]

Dare I say they needed a bell end?

[@AidanRatnage]

I found this minigame incredibly difficult.

[@joshcastaneda2482]

You can ring my behh-ehh-ell... Ring my bell... My bell...

[@ACorkey]

I just want to add: momentum = 1/2 * mass * velocity * velocity. Less mass, more speed will be more efficient.

[@zxuiji]

24:00, No you SHOULD'VE tried that, maybe the speed of it's fall is what you need to hit that 150

[@CindyHelms]

So I misread the title when I first got the notification… It literally took me a second to realize that couldn't be right and I'm not repeating the word I misread because I think it's obvious…

[@esteban280889]

That hat makes me think link is cos playing as Louise from bobs burgers

[@EthanMiguelScott]

Goron Mickey is best Mickey.

[@teoz21]

These shows are going to be the reason I eventually buy this game, having still not finished BotW!

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

Could you stick a bomb flower to the end that hits the bell? Or is that not allowed, do they only stick to weapons?

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

That way you could have concussive and explosive force, if the game models this that is!

[@Vinja_Wolters]

I miss show of the weekend

[@vvandavvitch]

I miss Kippers 🐱 Does Luke miss that troll probably not 😂

[@NEKOSEI]

I never saw this game in my first playthrough. But now I know how to beat it first try. xD

[@adammateen]

I heckin love Jon!

[@13loodydove46]

Building a scaffold to hold up your unbalanced builds and saving it to auto build would have been helpful.

[@joshuakirkham9593]

"It's a rock-et" 😂

[@abydosianchulac2]

So how long did this challenge take?

[@danny.antoni]

But what if they make it even louder and earn a diamond?

[@zombieham904]

Hehehe shapes funny.

[@yellowsoy2475]

I used this final design and got 182

[@RichardWinskill]

As far as I'm aware, multiple rockets don't stack; the only advantage is stability.

[@HavocHounds1988]

Correct, I seen a video that showed the speed and distance was the same with one as opposed to several.

[@enderhx]

Hilarious 😂

[@merepseu]

Here we learn, vaguely, of the concept of diminishing returns. What we *don't* learn: dB is a logarithmic scale and going from 58 to 150 is like 1.6 billion times the noise.

[@GardinerAlan]

Use a bomb on top like a warhead?

[@seanromine3932]

9:00 imagine the poor bastards whose house you just destroyed, their lives ruined when that thing just rained from the sky, pissing on their parade. You shot a metaphorical arrow into the air, except rockets and boulders and barrels.

[@tinatope1485]

The last 30ish minutes of this video felt like they trying to put a square block through a circular hole right up till that final eureka moment.

[@joshuakirkham9593]

How many times can you put ding, or dingalung into a sentence? :)

[@TheGhostofmydemise]

Wait we get the bunny mask in ToTK??

[@KratonWolf]

Yeah. All outfits from botw (except well-worn set, warm doublet, female gerudo set, ancient armor set, and the salvager set) are in this, plus some new ones. Ancient tech was almost entirely deleted from the story, probably due to the butterfly effect.

[@LokkerG]

@@KratonWolf I'm convinced they cannibalized all the ancient tech for research and creating the new gear Link uses. The only weaponized ancient tech remaining were the blades used as arrowheads to create a variant of the ancient arrows.

[@layzboi8908]

I know this is a bit immature buuuuuuuuuut............... Ding-a-ling 😂

[@Giga-lemesh]

“Ffffu” - cut the video

[@milanugrinovic]

guys you are the best. my dear dad passed. i miss him so much . and i watched with him both of your channels so many times. the best way to remind him what he bought me over the years and what is my passion. I always said him “my dream is to work with them dad, it would be THE dream” ❤❤❤ thank you for make me smile and laugh while i can’t stop crying ❤

[@gamer6484]

Am I missing something? Can you not put a spike on the top for a contact point?

[@Therandomduck8]

Can you not use a stabiliser

[@quangtran9843]

Why does Strade sound like Mickey Mouse?

[@samuxan]

I did this with a few stabilizers, a stick, a bomb and one of the big rocks. Don't rememberer the exact number but I think it was higher
