I am bursting with excitement to see you play with my stuff!! It’s such an honor to be featured in one of your wonderful videos! Thank you for being you Tim🥰🥰

Tim got old enough to be a kid, and then decided that that's the best age, and just stayed that way, an inspiration to us all.

Tim is right, I do like a bit of water now and then

Such a calming voice And then 3:54 And even better at 5:43

This is remarkably sweet, fun and wholesome. We love you Tim! 💕

You know what they say... There's no bismuth like show bismuth.

You know it's going to be a good Friday when Tim drops a 10 min video.

5:44 I was nodding out and BAM! That sound from that toy hitting the microphone made me jump up and holler "hey." Almost woke up the wife lol.

Bismuth is a beautiful element. Those square patterns that you see are completely natural too. That's just one of the odd properties of the metal, when it cools and starts forming crystals it just builds these square designs.

This, THIS, is how Tim corrupts minds with his channel. Encouraging people to pursue amusement and wonder.

I can only imagine what a delight it must be to share your creations with someone who appreciates toys as much as Tim does. Thank you for sharing, Chuck! I might have to steal that rubber band toy design for my own cats. ;D Something that's easy to miss in this episode is Tim's knowledge of both bismuth and water's inherent properties. Never lose your curiosity and wonder at nature, my friends! This universe is full of cool things!

Jumpscare at 5:42 😱

8:22 Is that water from the Nile?

Awesome stuff, Tim! This has got to be one of the best channels on KZfaq ❤️

Always fun to watch. Thanks, Tim.

Chuck is a very talented dude, good to see his work being appreciated! Great vid!

So wonderful to see two of my favorite play and puzzle appreciators interact like this! 🥰

bismuth from the nile!!!!

Water... From a river in North Africa?

A nice way to spend a Friday night, starting the binge rn

I love when people with 3D printers contribute to their favorite KZfaqrs. :D There was a fan over on the Shaun Woods channel 3D printing mousetraps based off antique ones that were reviewed on that channel.

Nice one Chuck, great fun Tim, and thank you Grand Illusion team. Always fantastic.

Had a bad day so I've just been binge watching grand illusions for the past hour. Really helps put my mind at ease, thank you Tim 😊

Let's all take the time to give Chuck a little applause👏👏👏

Ha, the ticket roll thingies! Used to do the exact same thing with those paper rulers they had hanging around in the furniture store as a kid. Nice to see that again in this form.

You are one of my heroes. Never lose your sense of wonder!

Thank you Chuck for Tim's content for another charming video :)

Tim’s videos are so calming. If I ever feel stressed out, I can just pop a long video on and listen to his voice. Thank you Tim!

Tim, the man who will always be young at heart!

I love this mans enthusiasm over things that seem so simple yet have the capacity to bring such enjoyment to him. When seeing them through his perspective it adds a whole new level of appreciation for these small knickknacks and oddities. Every video is so wholesome and heart warming. Truly an underrated channel that needs more attention.

5:03 trying to remain wholesome. Trying to remain wholesome.

lovely stuff

When I look at Tim, the smile on my face doesn't go away . . . 🙂

Some of those look like great fidget toys! The card spinners are genius in their simplicity and I love the patterns as they spin. Clever stuff!

I am found of Bismuth too. I wish you could grow whole buildings with this stuff.

This 4k Tim is amazing. Many thanks to all involved.

I always watch your videos Sir!!! Have a great day!!😁

I find incredible comfort here.

Great if more adults felt it was ok to say I've been playing this would be a better world.

This channel is a blessing to anyone seeking for new interesting ways to get some fun sensory stimulus.

That's none of your bismuth!

I've found you demonstrations fascinating. I hope your channel continues for a very long time. Thank you.

That pulsating universe really is something

excellent way to display surface tension (especially in water) :)

This is the coolest! These are the coolest toys, Chuck!! :)

What a lovely idea.

I think my favorite was the water device.

I get the feeling that these might make wonderful toys for some autistic children, as well as other Sped kids❤️!

I am so glad to see u still make vids!(btw love ur content

Tim is the real asmr king

Super cool Tim

Tim you are the best

Fun fact: Bismuth is the least-radioactive radioactive element. There is technically no completely stable isotope, but the _most_ stable, Bi-209, has a half-life of approximately 10 billion times the age of the universe, so its radioactivity is harmless and basically impossible to measure.

5:43 *_SLUUURP_*

I love this channel

I want to play with those rattling plastic things SO bad

fascinating stuff as usual

What ever is the age of Tim he still inspired me for 5 years

i still have y button and thread spinner from when i was 4, mine is made of twine, and cedar

Super Rare gems!

Here from Chuuckaduuck! Love his brain and what comes out of him.

I suddenly remember a trick I read about a long time ago. You hold a coin (20-25 mm or so) vertically between the table and the tip of your left index finger. Then with the other hand you move your right index finger quickly down your left finger (you can change left/right if convenient). That sends the coin spinning on the table. Let the spectators try - they won't make it. The trick is that the tip of your right thumb just hits the edge of the coin and sends it spinning. But nobody notices. I wonder how I forgot that.

Chuck sent me from TikTok! Love both of your videos!

Love your videos.

Let’s go the coolest tiktoker getting his inventions out there

Tim is proof childishness and maturity can coexist

Those are Trivial Pursuit cards!

Such strange shapes the Bismuth takes.. when solidifying.

Thank you Tim! Could it be due to water surface tension?

A week and a 1/2 feels like 3 or 4 days when you're having fun

magnesium is cool too

Can't believe Tim didn't put the ticket bowl on his head. He's always wearing strange things as hats!

Grandpa Tim is still here

love your vids tim!!! i look forward to each upload, glad to have caught this one early! hope you're doing well :)

I wouldn't have such long strings and elastic bands around cats, it doesn't take long for a cat to swallow a string or an elastic band due to their essentially automatic swallowing mechanism and it could be a disaster. I have 4 cats at the moment, had them for many years now and I've kept cats my entire life so while playing with strings is ok if you hold onto one end firmly and know the cat won't get ahold of the whole thing, wrapping strings around your ankles especially ones made of different smaller strings could end badly. This might just be me being overprotective but I felt like saying it's a bad idea :) Awesome awesome toys tho, loved the green one on a string, it somehow gave me frog vibes.

Cool Beans

This wonderful man is literally the headmaster of Hogwarts for muggles. Truly spectacular

You sound different god bless you tim❤🎉

Would be interesting to see the elastic band and strong on an elastic band gun. 😊✌️

7:42 This is because the atoms expand as they cool. Same reason why ice floats in water

Nice AT field there Tim...

Lolz great video.😂

7:56 Especially if that's the water from one particular African river.

Tim big fan

Nice

8:55 it went to the Nile, that's where water from the Nile is from

Yes, she certainly is.

Last item is a solid sponge...

I always watch time on the toilet at 4:30 am

I think Chuck needs to shut up and take my money. Two words: new fidgets.

That water thing was sorcery

Very statisfying

Tim with a 3D printer would be the beggining of an endless show!!!

nice

I've been coating my glass work in bismuth for years, its a crazy weird medium to work with, it's the most random medium i've ever dealt with

Oo , that's a thing. 😮

The earlier versions of FIDGETS.

I wonder of Tim still collecting toys. This is all men's dream to have all kind of toys and show it to everyone and future generation..

it’d be quite nice to get a toy of your own creation on Tim’s youtube channel

What an entertaining video Tim! However, this may be the loudest video to date...
