Your Brother should join TKOR and continue your legacy...

Rip thanks for showing me how to make cool stuff

Surprised you didn't have safety glasses on sooner like your brother. That splashing can get you. A hacksaw does the best job. It cuts through the entire plastic housing cleanly, as well as any lead bars.

Hope you are having as much fun as we had watching you,Rest In Peace. From everyone

"Pry it up gently" -Proceeds to pry it open with as much force as humanly possible.

I was a burn therapist at the Institute for Surgical Research, Burn Center and Extremity Trauma Center at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio Texas for years. You cannot imagine the different ways people got themselves burned. I treated patients who made their own homemade canons, which subsequently exploded. Decided to take a radiator cap off while the engine was still hot (common). Tried to rescue a kite from power lines using a metal pole. Looked into a gas tank with a butane lighter' to see if it was empty. And every type of industrial accident you can imagine. None of them ever thought they were going to get hurt, because they believed that it was never going to be them. I appreciate your attempt at educating people, but in the future I wish you would take better safety precautions, especially when working with sulfuric acid and the subsequent sulfuric gas. Good luck in the future on not getting injured, I really really mean that.👍

what I learned today: Panasonic makes car batteries?

6 years later and still helpful as always, truly The King

"I just got a new car, and what better way to celebrate then to rip the battery out, crack it open, and see whats inside." Only you would say that grant.

I love how he's doing all of this inside his house

RIP thanks for the awesome memories ♥️

thank you random guy. awsome video. i tried the same experiment but with different results. 1. moms car won't start. 2. the cat is bald. 3.my brother burned his third nipple. 4. i ruined my new flip flops. 5. I'm grounded.... and not allowed on yalltube anymore.... P.s. moma said you probly ate paint chips when you was a kid.

make this video public, it was really good

next video: How to make your own nuclear reactor XD

King of random logic “ hey got a new car let’s destroy it”

tip: drill a hole in the battery to drain it. tip2: keep your freaking glasses on!! I have seen horrible burns from that stuff. as well as battery explosions. once you see one of explode -- respect becomes the new word of the day. good luck fellas...

5:02 You should've done this outside since you're releasing a ton of lead oxide/sulfate mist.

I like unlisted videos, it makes me feel special :D

Thank you so much ❤️ you helped me in my studies as i was doing Batteries topic in electrochemistry by watching you video of secondary Batteries that is storage battery it makes me easy to understand thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ RIP

2:45 pours out battery acid without eye protection. Does not value eyesight.

Buys new car - Breaks the Battery^^

"I should wear some safety-glasses", puts on his sunglasses

Guy:Hey what ya doin. Another Guy:Just opening a spiluble battery with SULFIRIC ACID

Thank you for helping all the "young unns" figure out how to do acid attacks.

Make this public it's a good video

Bare arms and no face shields? You two are just warming up for the Darwin Awards.

"Because this is sulfuric acid, you want to put it in a glass container"

I thought a car battery had a million AA batteries, a gameboy, and a red horse

*Pours out acid* *Doesn't wear eye protection*

Finally, a channel that does dangerous things and know what they're getting into and take necessary safety precautions. Thank you for not being morons and taking safety into account.

02:39 - no arm protection, no eye protection... and just few seconds before I heard child in background. Really great stuff guys, really ...

R.I.P it’s been fun brother sad to see you go

*It was a really nice video :)*

Your bro looks like a more husky version of you

No one : King of random:buys new car “what’s better then hacking it removing its engine

he taught us how to do things the right way.

I feel so acomplished for being able to watch this before it was public :D

2:03 the dude eyes lol

As a chemist this was extremely stressful to watch... I'm surprised with how sloppy and careless they were with such hazardous chemicals?! Especially scary to think about the others that could be following this experiment and seriously injur themselves by not using proper PPE

Those Panasonic car batteries are (or at least used to be) awesome. My old Mazda came with one from the factory. That battery lasted 12 years before it had to be replaced. Didn't show any symptoms of weakness either. Just one morning everything was dead.

In germany you need to pay additional 7,50€ if you buy a new car battery but don't give the old back, so peopole wont throw them away.

I like how you used " it was in my car battery" that made me laugh

Got to change the music. It sounds like music you would play during credits. Feels like the video is about to end at any second

Forget about watching how things are made, there is something very satisfying about watching hi take things apart.

If sulfuric acid gets on your clothes, it will eat holes in them. Not bleach them.

Cool! The lead is soft and spongy for maximum surface area. Id like to see you take apart a deep cycle battery and look at the comparison between the plates. Also the pool store near me sells very pure 30% sulfuric acid by the gallon, have you seen it in stores near you? Maybe its just Florida thing, but it might be worth letting people know instead of dealing with yucky lead filled acid!

Dude, that was awesomeness. I love your videos, and I hope you continue forever.

Love ya man, RIP brother

I need to see the rest of this!!!! I'll be waiting for it

The acid honestly would've been pretty refreshing on a hot summers day

RIP GRAND THOMPSON LETS YOU LIVE A HEAVENLY LIFE

As an auto parts store employee, I don't get tearing apart a perfectly good battery. You can buy acid by the quart at most parts stores. As a veteran mechanic (35 years ) I have never had a battery explode on a vehicle that I was working on, but I have seen others explode .Hydrogen Sulfide is the gas produced by a charging battery, and it WILL explode. The gas you attempted to light was carbon dioxide, the result of most acid + baking soda reactions. Including the vinegar + baking soda that makes so many science fair volcanoes work. Vinegar contains approx. 5% acetic acid.

Playing with sulfuric acid.... Not A Good Idea (:-/

I feel like a secret agent when watching a "secret video." Grant you should put annotations in your public videos that flashes by really quickly and have it take people to a secret video. It'd be a fun little challenge for your subscribers.

Definitely need LOTS more videos with Mark in them, WOOF! ;-)

"I don't believe this is flammable, and to prove it, I'm willing to put a lighter in it." Don't kid yourself, you'd do it if you thought it was flammable too.

Make lead cups. The Romans used them... I think...

What is so special in this vid, ppl? You had to learn all of this at school many years ago...

The safety protocols in this video are scary. I'm seriously surprised neither of you were seriously injured.

I feel like it's not the first time he said"should be ready to pull out"😂

When I was little I use to eat lead paint chips off the walls and it made me feel funny

Why did you dopes ruin a perfectly good car battery?

i kept on thinking i had two tabs open at the same time, your music !! REALLy !!

such curiosty and knowledge, you will newer be forgotten 😔

How many batteries would it take to melt a body. I'm asking for a friend. >_>

Also, you should've been wearing respirators to prevent any type of damage to your lungs.

Among the most dangerous things that happened in this parade of danger was prying with chisels.

Daniel: Grants brother The cooler Daniel: Grant

Why don't you just buy a old battery instead of taking one out of your car

Three things, 1. pouring out the contents shouldn't be done in the way you did it, you should have tackled one cell at a time, that is the safest way. 2. you should have poured the neutralizing solution into the cells until the reaction ceased before you tried hacking the case open. 3. once neutralized and safe, you could drain the battery of the solution and then use a cutting tool like a hand drill (Dremel type) and cut the top off to extract the lead plates.

King of Random: the king of being told "don't do this at home" and doing it anyways circa 2000-something.

What better way to celebrate by new car than making it completely unusable. I freaking loved this guy no homo . The dude made it so that he had to get a whole new battery for his car for the love of science. May his soul rest in peace

Probly should have used a fume hood.

I like how he gives safety tips like someone was insane enough to try this at home.

Once you mentioned wet cell batteries I instantly got flashbacks of physical science class.

You will never see this but just because your gone it doesn't mean your not the craziest person on the planet🙂

Grant Thomson:tutorials life hack Me: tutorials how the get on he FBI wanted list

When will this video be released?

I love how quick people are to point out unsafe behavior in a lab setting; thanks comment section for always looking out for others!

You said something about "absorbent glass" at the beginning. Any chance you could make a video explain what this means, showing us some of this absorbent glass from a car battery, and maybe doing some experiments with it?

You guys are having so much fun ...now show us what's inside you heads?

Where is your eye protection while splashing and pouring black t-shirt guy?

I love how everyone on KZfaq has advice for how everyone publishing anything on KZfaq could do it better.

I love the video... but I can’t handle the way you said “shredded”. Shrayyydid. 😂😂😂

sneaky Grant is sneaky XD

Title made me think there was a live creature in his battery xD

Me:Hey I just bought a $3,000,000 car,want to scavenge it for the battery Friend:sure

I would bet $10 mark could beat him in an arm wrestle contest.

Is anyone getting alot of recommendations to watch these vids

something fun to do with lead.......put in your unwanted friends food

yep, makes sense to me, pour battery acid, make a comment that is splashes and do it all without eye protection...Darwin award material right there.

Wife comes ( ah let’s go to the store ) starts car ( WHY WONT IT START ) shouts ( GRANT THOMAS )

5:00 frying lead plates!

H2SO4 (aq) + 2 NaHCO3 (aq) ===> Na2SO4 (aq)+ 2 CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (l)

Not once have I ever thought "What's in a car battery?" But this was still a pretty interesting video. Made for a neat way of killing about 7 minutes

I love how his brother had gloves on and they were shredded from the beginning

"put a wooden spoon over it" lmao

I have a feeling that you got this idea from Cody...

Next battery you guys decide to take apart. Unscrew the battery terminals. To make taking off the top easier. Cool video.

The reason that they made it so hard to open is because they didn't think anyone would be stupid enough to open one. But I still loved your vid.
