The next full featured video in this channel might be gunpowder related

@peterparadis6788 Says:
Sourcing sulfur locally has been a question for me. Though I know you can have an inefficient reaction with just nitrates and carbon
@RogueRen Says:
More like gun PASTE but idk
@matthewharvey3556 Says:
If you heat them up enough, MOST things will “spontaneously” catch fire. 😂😂😂
@arlo0011 Says:
Anyone who has ever watched the original Star Trek should know how to make gun powder.

Sugar rocket
@D3M0N1C_40RM Says:
This isnt gunpowder guys
@Firkinnel Says:
Have you got the recipe for Semtex ?
Asking for a friend.
@zacharypike6408 Says:
sounds like its basically rocket candy with sulfur added flames look like rocket candy too
@elderterdkin2515 Says:
What weirdo in history, got bored enough to try mixing those 3 together
@coyotekody Says:
Potassium nitrate and powdered sugar is the fuel mixture we use for our hobby rocket motors
@lookroind Says:
Correction, this was an attempt for an elixir of eternal life. Well, what a plot twist it became.
@GoogleUser-iv9nm Says:
Doesnt act like a powder. Looks more like candy fuel. Powder must explosively burn
@lallinnBESTI Says:
change the honey out for potash (K₂CO₃) and see what happens
@Monkiesuncle Says:
"So yummy"??? 🤣 Looks like it COULD be frosting...sweetened bird and bat guano that smells like rotten eggs or sewage. SO YUMMY!!! 🤮
@CactusJackSlade Says:
My first childhood chemistry set my folks bought me in the mid-60's had potassium nitrate, charcoal and sulfur.... you bet we made gun power and lit it off! I guess they figured the quantities were so small you really couldn't harm much?!
@raelik777 Says:
What you're doing here is combining 3 basic categories of ingredient: a fuel (the honey), an oxidizer (the potassium nitrate), and an accelerator (the sulfur). You could ignite just the honey and the potassium nitrate, but it would have to get alot hotter and would burn more slowly and less vigorously. It would also produce more ash and soot and not produce as much gas. Using pure carbon instead of honey helps with this too. The idea behind the gunpowder reaction is to have it decompose into as much gas as possible as quickly as possible. With just carbon and the nitrate, you'll release CO2 and alot of nitrite side products. With the sulfur melting and igniting before the carbon, it will cause an initiating reaction with the nitrate to form a sulfide. This frees both the nitrogen AND the oxygen, allowing for a VERY rapid burning of the carbon into CO2.

Congraz, you're a wizard now. that's how you cast fireball.
@metallkopf988 Says:
Charcoal, Sulfur and Saltpeter. He used the honey as a substitute for carbon. Which can work, but since honey does contain water, it's not ideal.
Sugar is used in a lot of smoke bomb recipes, though.

@Mr._zuko_loves-tea Says:
Thank you for this idea
@_JohnRedcorn_ Says:
1. Grind the sulphur and saltpetre using the mortar and pestle, then add them to the cauldron.
2. Boil for 2 turns (using the bellows).
3. Grind the charcoal (note: use leached charcoal) and add it to the cauldron.
4. Boil for two turns.
5. Pour into a mortar and grind to finish the process

Bro said spontaneously like there wasn’t a flame in the immediate proximity of the gun powder…
@michaelathens953 Says:
It works: I made working black powder entirely from stuff sold in the farm supply place I worked at, and demonstrated it to my boss because he didn't believe me.
@mrgirling1840 Says:
It's not spontaneous if you have to heat it.
@billcipher1702 Says:
senku said theres only 3 uses of calcium carbonate
@AKtheCHIMERA Says:
Forbidden frosting
@DeReAntiqua Says:
"The earliest recipe" - uses birdshyte. Yeah, no. That's exactly NOT what the earliest recipes were. That's why discovering it can be used for that and then the discovery of large deposits of it was such a monumental step in Early Modern warfare, genius. And no. Clearly, you haven't made gunpowder. Because if it burns this slowly and for this long, it's completely useless for any sort of military use apart from fuses. Mainly for things that lead to ACTUAL gunpowder.

This will come in handy next time I face Gorn in battle.

They don’t want you to know this recipe if you own chickens. It’s trivial to make the government paranoid.

@ВасилийПупкин-т2т Says:
Гуано содержит огромное количество мочевой кислоты, которая под действием нитрифицирующих бактерий ПРИ ВНЕШНЕМ ДОБАВЛЕНИИ поташа (продукта экстракции из золы растений) уже формирует нитрат калия.
В доиндустриальную эпоху в Европе для этого использововались буквально выгребные ямы.
И это был стратегический ресурс, который в критические моменты (например, Франция эпохи Революционных войн) буквально под расписку и строгий учет передавали на производство селитры.

The third ingredient caught me by surprise
@khiemgom Says:
Yo dr stone knowledge
@SimplerThoughts1975 Says:
So you're saying that where bats crap, honey drips, and sulfur is deposited via thermal vents all in the same spot....
You get naturally formed gunpowder....
Which makes me wonder if they actually mix the stuff together or if they just picked it up off the ground.

they should not be teaching me this
