Also how you want to taste the different flavors of the ingredients layered together instead of totally combined, as if they’d already been chewed up. That’s not a thing with thickened drinks, but it can be if you take a food that’s meant to be solid and turn it into a thick liquid.

[@VPCh.]

The thing with thickening agents is that they change the flavor, even when flavorless themselves. Different thickeners have a property called flavor release, which is how easily you can taste the thing it is thickening. Some substances wont enter your taste buds or dissolve in you saliva as easily. For example gelatin has a great flavor release, but xanthum gum has a very poor flavor release. And since it impacts different molecules differently, it can change the balance of flavors. That soft drink that you are used to is going to taste weird when some of the flavors are missing. The same goes for cold vs warm drinks due to their different thicknesses. Soft drinks are designed to be drunk cold or at room temperature, a drink left in a hot car will taste too sweet and too strongly flavored (not even getting into the issue of CO2 solubility).

Might be a little outside the scope of this video, but viscosity is also proportional to the intermolecular forces, so the reason temperature affects viscosity is because, as a substance is heated, the forces between molecules weaken, so things like viscosity and surface tension lower.

[@TheRusty]

Depending on the thickening agent, there can definite be a taste. Xanthan gum (like you've got here) is flavorless, but cellulose or starches can add a distinctive "stale" flavor to thickened liquids and food. if not mixed properly they can also leave a grainy or "bubbly" texture, due to undissolved particles and trapped air.

[@jaimeduncan6167]

It may be but, just like colors, people really perceive flavors differently. Green is actually a color, a subjective property, frequency of light is not. Color depends on contexts (colors around the object, intensity of light, etc). People are not standardized machines, each person has a significantly different hardware and software (live experiences). I will not be surprised if some people can taste the chemicals, and I will not be shocked if most of them are women as some studies show that women have a better sense of smell than men.

[@BrainchildDnB]

I think it's more likely the incongruence with tasting something very familiar in a different consistency. Some people complain about the viscosity of pudding (for example) but most people just accept that pudding is thick. But substances like Coke or water are very familiar to most people and they already have a strong association in a person's brain about how it should feel. Messing with that perception triggers the disgust.

9:58 bro i thought the first one was the cold water and the second was hot water im so dumb 💀

[@mike1024.]

I think he did this experiment before on this channel on a different video. In that one, he add a statistic of a somewhat high percentage of people get it right, but it wasn't more than about 70% or 80% I think. Don't feel bad if you didn't get it right!

[@wihatmi5510]

What if you keep the water getting colder but preventing it from freezing due to pressure?

[@fengarm]

No one's ever supposed to say "try that thick coke".

[@sainte06]

You can also hear the change when you run the faucet. When running the hot water side, you can hear the change of the flow when the hot water gets to the faucet.

His wife being afraid of him, is the reason why we all need to be too. It's like the normal chaotic sane version of Michael but very butterfly like in comparison to nile red.

[@McrsftHater]

About the ball falling in the tube. Have you considered the tube expansion? It you fill it with cold water it could shrink leaving less space for the ball to fall thus creating more resistance.

[@DrPsychotic]

Good point I wonder, tho I do believe water to some degree would get thicker as it freezes cause it does eventually thicken so much it turns to ice, I’ve also had really cold bottles of water instantly turn to thick slush when shaken I just don’t think it would make a noticeable difference before it starts to actually freeze

Chinese craftsman making Japanese knives? What will they think of next...

[@atdynax]

Is Kamikoto still using bad metal for their knives?

[@IneptOrange]

Yes.

[@dannymars]

Wasn’t kamikoto knives exposed as a cheap Chinese knock off? I’m confused, same company as “Established Titles” no? Thought you would’ve cut ties with them after last year’s fiasco. You seem like a pretty smart guy, weird that you wouldn’t look further into these sponsorships.

Well everyone needs money eh?

Japanese Knives made by Chinese kinda a red flag. They may have the steel but not the Japanese Tradition of actually making Japanese Knives

[@thnderleg]

"Yoghurt drink"... Suuuuure buddy, we all know what we're thinking

[@AzureSiniy]

This stuff is extremely common in the setting of nursing homes. Sometimes they have pre-made stuff in consistencies from a "nectar" to "honey" to "pudding" at thickest, and flavored with lemon or cranberry, other times you can add it into a liquid you want to thicken

[@kreynolds1123]

I have no doubt that hot water is less viscose than cold, but I think one might think about what other things could possibly be happening. 1 is density change, and 2 could differences in expansion create more space between tube walls and the ball allowing water to more easilly move around the ball. The second point can become significant where expansion coefficient are significantly different and where the ball's diameter approaches the inner diameter of the tube.

[@tinhoyhu]

This. Surprised that I had to scroll this far down to find someone with the same thoughts.

[@kreynolds1123]

@@tinhoyhu scrolling down is sort of a proxy for likes. And how far up comments perculate and get shown to others first. And besides liking the affirmation likes bring, I am also surprised more people didn't take interest to questioning an experiment's conditions.

[@chiquilloneal]

Genuine question about your hot/cold water experiment: Would the temperature of the water affect the buoyancy of the marble? Wouldn't this cause objects to sink faster in hot water regardless of viscosity? Love your videos!

[@EggsBenedict1]

"it won't kill you." "good enough for me"

[@macmcabee328]

You didn't mention at all the obvious one with water. When it is cold enough it becomes so thick we call it ice. No need for any fancy experiments there. Thank you for all of your very informative videos. I love them. At 78 I am not too old to learn. Thanks again. Mac

[@nyan0812nerd]

my uncle had Huntington's and had to drink thickened liquids. Thickened Guinness was definitely deeply unpleasant

[@jlchambe77]

In the hot water vs cold water experiment. Did the marble move faster because hot water was less viscous, or did the heat expand the tube and the hot tube have a larger cross sectional diameter?

[@Sehrukh]

I have 3 of those knives, I used a specific one 5-6 times and then it snapped at the handle while I was cutting a POTATO.

[@SivaranjanGoswami]

I always knew the difference between the sound of pouring hot water and cold water, but never thought about the reason. Thanks for the explanation. Amazing video indeed.

[@lucamatteobarbieri2493]

Also salinity affects the behavior of water

[@SivaranjanGoswami]

@@lucamatteobarbieri2493 Yes... boiling and freezing points also change due to salinity...

[@lucamatteobarbieri2493]

@@SivaranjanGoswami You are right but not only phase change temperatures are affected by salts in water, also cohesive propreties in the liquid phase are changed by salts and other solutes. For example pure mountain lake water splashes differently from sea water at the same temperature.

[@SivaranjanGoswami]

@lucamatteobarbieri2493 yes. That's true. That's not only salt. Anything that gets dissolved in water can affect its viscosity. Sugar syrup is simply a lot of sugar dissolved in water. Similarly, when you dissolve too much salt in water, it becomes brine.

If you got Japanese knives made by Chinese craftsmen, what you got are Chinese knives.

Re: thickened ethanol One fun & dangerous thing you can do with grocery store equipment is make cryo-cooling alcohol. Crush up some dry ice in a container and then put some alcohol in. The alcohol will super-cool due to the dry ice and you can submerge objects into the still-liquid alcohol to freeze them solid enough to shatter. All the fun of liquid nitrogen with so much more danger!

[@kevinfitz3721]

I would drop that sponsorship those knives suck hrc of 53 ÷/- 2 points and aus10 at 62. You can get far better knives from actual japan not a Chinese company tricking people into believing they got a Japanese knife I'm not trying to be mean but do a little research on it in knife forums or even test the knives out yourself that could make a good video. Enjoyed the video otherwise and happy holidays!!

[@joshbryant1133]

I saw in a science experiment book once that you can see the difference between cold and hot water by poking a small hole in the bottom of a cup. The hot water will drip faster than the cold water because its viscosity is lower.

[@zumuvtuber]

When the alcohol fire started spreading to the table 😨

[@jasonnugent963]

I’ve had this !… when I was in the Hospital during alpha-wave, I was on Ventilator for 16 days and it really damaged my vocal cords and throat. I was on “thick liquids” for a week or so while my throat healed. It was a life saver.

[@guyedwards22]

Those water pour recordings sparked the strongest ASMR tingles I've ever gotten in my life, they're so nice. And the difference is very obvious! Hot water sounds like a long, soft exhale with lots of bubbly pinpricks, while cold water sounds like someone trying to fake a deep voice with more icy pinpricks.

[@ciudadanubis]

Water viscosity varies very little with temperature, but the maximum viscosity for pure water is at 4°C, reducing viscosity al higher and lower temperature than 4°C. At 0°C the water freezes, but meanwhile the water is changing fase from liquid to solid, it remains at lower viscosity than 4°C.

[@2nd-place]

In the drop test, did you account for thermal expansion of the tube? Because that could reduce the random drag on the side of the tube in the hot water.

[@umbrascitor2079]

To what extent would the expansion of the tube be countered by expansion of the ball, and would the difference then be significant? We're talking .2s margins here.

[@tinhoyhu]

Unknown until the experiment is done in a wider container.
