I'm glad you answered the most important scientific question.

How much is 2000 pounds? I mean, the rest of the world would like to know.

damm, i thought this video was from the hydraulic press channel.

The ball is dangerous and may attack at any time.

I wonder if any one else has just a tiny slight urge to punch Norm in the face?

Finally, an answer to the question nobody asked.

"Hello ant velcom bak to de hytraalic press channil."

I was taking online classes from 9 - 5 so I was having to sit for long periods at a time. kzfaq.infoUgkxEhgucmXpcAGYh8fatGFEnOK2V97VIwhG After the first day in a regular table chair, I thought about an exercise ball and ordered one that night. It came the next day! My hips, legs, back and butt couldn't have been happier! I'm almost 5'11" and I ordered the largest size and it was perfect for me. I also have RLS (restless legs) and this helped so much.Pumping it up was a little challenging and definitely gives you a good arm workout, (I'm a 62 yo woman) but it's very doable. Getting the tape centered with the hole to inflate it and then getting the pin back in was also a little tricky. But I love my new "chair" and I love the torquiose color. Hopefully it will also get used for exercise. 😁

Codec does not like the green ball

Here we go another channel crushing shit with a press ....

2000 pounds is the average weight of average american, right?

I'm confused as to why this video exists on Tested.

I wonder what is causing the video glitches on the joga ball. In the beginning you could see bright green noise patches

lol the ball knew what was coming. Notice the compression artifacts.

"Could I sit on this, bounce on it and blow it?" ~ Norm 2016

The scariest moment was at :50 seconds in when the guy is under the machine.

Impressive how strong the pin holds up. Would've thought it would shoot out. It didn't appear to be on top or bottom but was on the side.

Clicked on this thinking it was a video from the hydraulic press channel... xD

Super excited about these videos! I love learning hot products are tested in controlled manners like this.

This green exercise ball looked innocient at first, but nevertheless it was extremely dangerous and could have attacked at any time. That's why they dealt with it.

Welcome back to the hydraulic press, oh wait.

but what if you focus the weight in a smaller area

WHAT ? 2700LBS is 1224KG !! And I'm afraid of it exploding while sitting and bouncing on it, I hope that applies to any random brand ball tho, even if it's less but no way any person is that heavy not even half or even a quarter , even when bouncing.

little tip... avoid green things when infront of a green screen with the intention of chroma keying the background, otherwise what happened at the start happens

That was really anti-climactic

I found it appropriate that they put the ball under compression strain, since that's exactly what happened to the video *of* the ball.

I feel like this should have been done at least three times. Once with the ribbing on the ball parallel to the ground, once at a 45 degree angle, and once with it perpendicular. How the design of the yoga ball affects its structural integrity is far more interesting than just showing how tough they are.

There is one problem with that. This is only static weight, so it doesn't mean that you need to weigh 1.2 tonnes to burst a ball by jumping on it. To do so, you need much less, but how much exactly depends, as far as I know, on the speed and surface area. Imagine a bed of nails - one nail will run straight through your body, but you can lay on multiple of them. It you were to be dropped on the same bed you laid on before, they could still manage to hurt you.

not at all meant to capitalize from hydraulic press channels popularity.

when the rock beat didnt play in the intro i realized it wasn't Hydraulic Press Channel

he didn't just crush a exorcize ball, he crush a big green bouncy inflatible green ball.

I tell you what I'm really happy about I've been away from KZfaq for a few weeks so I don't know how long ago this happened but I'm really happy to see Jamie's name out of tested because he never contributed anything but the banner always had his stupid Blockhead in it. I'm really happy that it just says Adam Savage's now

Wait... This is not the hydraulic press channel?

It would be cool if Adam had his own channel then I wouldn't need to see all this completely unrelated stuff in my subscriptions box

i always think its interesting how objects fail at somewhat random points, but maybe cause of the microstructure, pipes always form pinholes at random points but i always assumed they'd burst at seams or joints

I never would of guest that ball would can hold 2700lbs.

Nice frank castle reference, one batch two batch penny and dime

should have put a concentrated load on it like a 1 foot by 1 foot block to simulate jumping on it.

Well that was an anti-climax

I thought that the plug would just pop out at that pressure. I have seen someone fall trough a yoga ball once, the most likely explanation was that the ball got damaged and the material slowly ripped until it popped.

"It works..." amazing!

3 minutes of my life that I'll never get back.

Thanks for this, I was honestly nervous blowing up my stability ball. Not joking lol.

Woah. Went with the Punisher reference!

Loved this electronics review.

It doesn't work without Anni laughing her ass off in the background ;)

Wow. I figured it was going to fail at the plug. I was not expecting that!

It suffered the same fate as the T-800

Nice Flat Stanley there :) By the way, my kids want to know how large the "pea" would have to be in order to be detectable through 20 feather mattresses and 20 quilts, as per the fairy tale. You might have the stuff at that place to find out...

So anticlimactic lol.

Trying to cash in on the hydraulic press craze? Lame!

Great Vid! keep it up!

Kishore is a pretty cool guy! I like him more and more

I want to know what brand of yoga ball that is. I doubt that they are all made the same.

Why didn't you just bring a bunch of different brands for testing?

After watching tested for quite some time, this video kinda caught me off guard, I enjoy looking to tested for original material an interesting look inside the maker space, movie industry, prop design, coverage of events, etc. This kinda seems almost too simple and lacking the general creativity tested inspires. If we putting aside the fact that there are other "let's press it" channels there still remains an opportunity to add a bit of a "myth busters flare" to it better explaining the science and reactions combined with perhaps a more climactic or more intriguing test material. If pressing is to become a regular staple in the channel then press that which shalt not be pressed and above all have fun with it. That being said keep up the good work and I look forward to your future vids and hopefully some more in depth coverage of the battle bots competiton. :)

That's a new low for Tested.

Hi, I don't really like this test. It seems strange, as the force used to burst the ball will surely be higher when using a large flat surface like that compared to a person sitting or bouncing on it. Therefore the initial hypothesis you were talking about is not represented in the test. Just my five cents, no offence.

So, how does one go about working there?

I wish you had included the sound so I could know how Simone's last name is pronounced.

How much can a mylar balloon hold? I rolled over one in a parking structure and it went buuUmp and I waited for a second or two before it popped.

thanks guys

Hey Norm have this guy on again he was good

As a very large man--VERY--This is the test i needed. lol

At least you didn't completely rip HPC by crushing something they've ready done before. It's still obvious this was just for views.

Trying to jump on the hydraulicpresschannel viewer train....

I thought I clicked a Hydraulic Press Channel video from my subscriptions.

And for today's extra content, this Jamie Heineman! It looks very dangerous and can attack at any time, we must deal with it!

next the question "how many licks to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?"

Actally styrofoam is 100% recyclable so when proper disposed it's as environmenaly friendly as any other recyclable material.

whats with the blur on the ball green screen??

can you guys use that machine to break in a brand new mattress?

This yoga ball is very dangerous, we must deal wit it.

Wait, they actually tested something?!

While that's interesting, I'm more interested in how much force (F=ma) is needed to burst it. I don't weight a ton, but if I jumped on one of those balls, would it burst? I'm not going to, and this is kinda cool, but not as useful as you'd think.

VELCUM TA DEE HYVRAULIC PRESS CHANNIL!

Is that an Edgertronic Camera? @ 2:15

it depends on the thickness of rubber

When I saw him crouch under it to place the thingy, I thought "Terminator!", then later they placed a skull there.... ye.

Lord Gaben uses one of these for an office chair, so I had complete confidence this holds over 1000lb!

I popped one,while bench pressing with 100lb dumbbells. Lol

Who color corrected this video?

All of a sudden every KZfaq channel has a hydraulic press.. Leave it to the pros, because if not trained properly, the items may attack at anytime

trying to skim off some of the hype of the hydraulic press channel

Whoever is responsible for this video sure does know how to engage their target audience.

this sorta took me back to mythbusters a bit.

spooky skel may ettak at any time!!!

Never go full frank castle man

Can I sit on it, bounce on it, and blow it?... Good job to whoever wrote that line...

Seems the video itself is under "compression strain".

Today's Episode of Tested is brought to you by Red Robin. Red Robin, Yum.

Can you do this with a bunch of pool toys

Fascinating. Sort of.

The compression algorithm doesn't like all those shades of green.

woah that green is crazy

It turned into a Pac-man at the end. C

Wow... it's like you took all the fun things from the Hydraulic Press Channel... removed them, and replaced it with a lot of talking. Tip - the fun we get from watching things get pressed is how they deform and fall apart. Balls pop, it's pretty uninteresting.

It would be more interesting to see the platform standing on the ball and then there should stand more and more chubby girls on platform:) before another would step on she should step on scale to weight her hehe I know it would not be accurate so much but much interesting to watch :)

Are they testing things? what is this tes?... ohhh

WElLKOM TO HUDROLYC PRESS CHAN.... what????!! Tested????!!!
