"we made an explosion thingy!" "let`s do it again!" Sums up this channel pretty well.

I

I've said this before, but you two sorta fill the gap the Mythbusters left behind.

These guys are a mix between Good Mythical Morning and Mythbusters. Probably the coolest channel on youtube. Great Job!

(computerized voice) THE MODERN ROGUE WIGGLES THE DRILL

“You wanna go outside for safety?” “Nah it’s fine”

I love this channel because it's like "IT'S SO EASY TO DO BUT YOU SHOULD NEVER DO THIS AT HOME BECAUSE YOU COULD KILL EVERYONE OR COULD GET YOU ARRESTED" on literally every video

I love the idea of these two drunk and stumbling on this episode of mr wizzard and just going " we have the stuff to do this what's the worst that can happen"

My uncle is a licensed pyrotechnician and he always makes these incredible displays for our fourth of July that includes some home made explosives with a secret recipe.... They're about the size of the larger paintbucket you have.... and creates a fireball the size of a house. Dust explosions are no joke!

Next time on The Modern Rogue: How to make Nitroglycerin.

The Modern Rogue gets a copyright strike! That was hilarious 😂😂

I'm surprised this isn't on actual television, it's as interesting as Mythbusters, well-produced and written, and the editing is clean and adds character. Well done, you earned my sub awhile ago. I hope this channel grows.

Up next on The Modern Rogue, How to treat burn wounds?

I think this is my new favorite video, not just from MR, but period. Brian's reaction is priceless!!! 😂😂😂

10:04 Brian: "We made an explosion thingy" Jason: Let's do it again" xD

When the safety of your family matters, but not that much 'cause I'm a modern rogue

I used to do this every halloween. I'd put baby powder in my jack-o-lanterns and blow into a pvc pipe and make the face of my jack-o-lanterns shoot flames. The seal on your paint can doesn't matter at all, what's the most important is making sure 1. your flame is far enough away from your air injector as to not blow it out and 2. blowing as hard and as fast as you can to get the perfect cloud of the air/fuel mixture. This also works with sawdust (or metaldust if you're brave/stupid.) You just want the fuel to be as fine as possible so it suspends in the air and makes a uniform distribution.

9:25 Brian is like 3 firemen just died right there. Jason is like holy shit hahaha I just killed 3 firemen

THIS IS THE BEST MODERN ROGUE YET -Me everytime a modern rogue comes out

I love the way you wiggle that drill!

Another example of a dust fire is Washburn Mill explosion if 1878. The building is still standing (partially) and the explosion occurred when a machine broke and started to catch fire, igniting the fine flour particles in the air, resulting in the almost entire destruction of the building. It is now a museum call the Mill City Mueseum, located in downtown Minneapolis, minnesota

I feel like sifted flour would have worked better.

Hey Brian and Jason! I wanted to tell you how much I love the modern rogue! I watch every ep right away! Even in school :P hope you guys are doing well!

9:38 you’re literally the meme with chris pratt being excited

great episode! in your episode about the martini, and how shaken not stirred is a mtyh, I recently learned that the reason that James bond orders his drinks shaken is because it waters down the drink, meaning he can drink more of it, without having the effects of the alcohol. just thought you guys would find that interesting.

"...it can happen in, like, coal mines." "Another hydrocarbon, right?" kek

You guys should upload more! I look forward to getting notifications saying "The Modern Rogue has uploaded a new video" Makes my day!

6:59 takes safety glasses off to drill hole

You guys should cover hotwiring

*_”for when the safety of your family matters... but not that much.”_*

a modern rogue video with explosion in the title,this is gonna be great

"honey, have you seen my coffee creamer?" *scurries into the garage* "noooOOOOOOooooo"

Best channel. period

I liked how the start fit perfectly: "Fire be gone. For when the safety of your family matters, but not that much cuz I'm a Modern Rogue!"

Why aren't you dressed like mario for that fire flour

cornstarch is my favorite. dump a couple cups of cornstarch in the tube of a leaf blower. it creates about a 6-9ft pillar of flame. It's fantastic. Also spec ops uses this technique with a small brick of c4 and bag of flour.

Lord Brushwood's laugh sounds like the joker's.

The enthusiasm is adorable.

Man that was fun seeing all this shit blow up. XD

when I was in senior school my chemistry teacher gather us around a quality street tin with a hole in the top and bottom. she then put a hose on the gas taps they use for Bunsen burners, and fed gas in for about 20 seconds, covering the top hole, she then lit the gas coming out the top. this caused a three inch flame to appear, this occurred because (to my class' surprise) there wasn't enough oxygen in the can to cause an explosion. eventually the flame shrank down and then; BANG the lid shot straight up and smacked into the ceiling, about 4 inches from florescent tube. IT WAS BLOODY AWESOME!

Love how you're doing this inside surrounded by cardboard boxes, haha.

I love the robot voice. I think it perfectly reflects your sense of humor. Reminds me of playing around on a Mac9. One of the voices, the sample text readout is "Hey, you! Yeah, you! Who do you think I am talking to?!" in the most ineloquent, raspy voice ever.

Try this again, but with aluminum powder and powdered sulfur. :)

The best part is Brian's pure child-like delight!

Baki brought me here even though I’ve been subbed to you for a few years I’ve never seen this episode.

I love these guys, this is exactly the kind of stuff my buddies and I would do back when we were kids.

"the modern rogue gets a copyright strike" LMAO

There’s a museum in Minneapolis, Minnesota. And part of the museum and building history is the building being a flour processing plant and one night a spark from a machine mixed with the flour/grain dust and the entire building was set on fire, blowing out the windows of the buildings around and you could hear it for miles. The first fire (that one) was in 1878. Then there was a second one in 1991 when the building was abandoned and no longer in use. It’s called The Mill City Museum if you want to learn more about it.

And it turned out fire-be-gone was the damn extinguisher.

I live in ks and in fire school we learn a lot about this due to the high volume of grain elevators and mills. One thing that you cant see is that most of the explosions that your seeing is actually the secondary explosion. When you first blow into it it hits the flame and flashes. When this flashes it causes a shock to the powder that is still settled and that pushes it into the air. This is the explosion that causes the larger portion of the damage. Look up grain elevators explosions. Its actually really interesting. We just had one local about 2 years ago.

The modern rogue gets a copyright strike😂😂

My eighth grade science teacher did this in a huge can with, I can't quite remember, I think it was corn starch. Huge explosion, relatively speaking of course, scorched out one of the ceiling tiles, it was fantastic!

It's been a while since you guys did a video that could potentially blind or maim you. Good job :-)

Great experiment with a practical lesson. Try using a kitchen sifter for flour to break up the clumps, or sugar (especially finer-grained confectioner's sugar), and direct the can end of the tube downward to produce better lift for the powder.

you guys should make a video learning parkour for escaping somebody

definitely best youtube channel around. There's no clickbait or anything.

try to blend the flour or take an air kompressor on the tube

The powder fireball and the grain silo are two different occurrences. The powder is where it becomes suspended and pops the top. The grain silo was a backdraft; where it was burning for long enough that it burned away the oxygen. When firefighter attacked the fire and fed it with O2/water, the burning grain and smoke was past it's ignition point, so it reignited with the abundance of O2, "exploding".

"Oh go to hell brushwood" Top 10 anime betrayals

We had an accident at a sawmill from a dust explosion from cutting bug-killed pine. The wood dust created from cutting the logs was so fine and dry and when suspended, created a combustible scenario.

WHAT? WHY IS THIS AGE RESTRICTED?!? NOOOOO, I WANTED TO WATCH IT AGAIN!

hell yeah, finally something to binge watch again

worst bong ever

Oh boy, can't wait for the bloopers on this one!

"We made an explosion thingy" -Brian 2017

Container also helps keep the aerosolized mix pressurized, which increases the reaction rate for a faster burn. It's the double-whammy of pyro-mixes being contained that helps them burn ridiculously fast, and then releasing it all in a short frame of time that say, differentiates black powder burning on it's own(whoosh) vs contained in a brass cartridge(boom).

"We made an explosion thingy." -Brian Brushwood, 2017

I have a sneaking suspicion that "Go to hell, Brushwood" is a commonly uttered phrase at The Modern Rogue HQ. 😋

"The Modern Rogue gets a copyright strike." lol

My all time favorite episodes

my friends used to do powder creamer fireballs off the roof of their house. (they were young and dumb.)

Brushwood’s laughter is infectious.

Hello i someone said i should watch this show on youtube and i really really love it!!!!!

Brian, so optimistic. Then when it actually works your face is priceless.XD

honestly better than scam school

Plays with fire with tons of boxes less than a few feet away... Sounds like fun!

Imagine that 100x bigger with firefighters standing on top....

Lets be honest here. The Modern Rogue just makes Fridays so much better

Almost 3 and a half years later and this is still the internets magnum opus.

"fire be gone, when the safety of your family matters but not that much" is a messed up but hilarious slogan for a can fire extinguisher.

flour power amirite

You placed the intro perfectly "when the safety of my family matters, but not that much BECAUSE IM A MODERN ROGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Hopefully you guys don't turn out like the myth busters. if you didn't know, throughout all these years Jamie and Adam were NEVER friends. it's still mind boggling to me. search up "Adam Savage won't work with Jamie Hyneman anymore" (i don't want to put the link because it will show up as spam).

Kind of how you can take a flame to diesel fuel (Which if I'm not mistake is #2 Fuel Oil) - it has to be atomized and sprayed before it'll becomes combustible. Gasoline on the other hand - just move a flame near it and you make is sound like a dog - woof! That's because gasoline turns to vapor on it's own. Oh and you could bolt a piezo-electric igniter in there. And maybe a stirring fan of some sort. Then you'd get it to light up no problem. But there I go - the engineering mind kicks in. And the little ping that Murphy did was priceless.

It would have been easier if you had sifted the flour beforehand

THE BEST BACKGROUND NOISE EVER!

There are 2 types of crazy in the world. 9:30

You guys are the new mythbusters i take my hat off to you sirs

I know birocratic when I hear it.

such Iconic banter

Who's here after Goblin slayer?

The sound it makes when he blows in the tube in slow motion! PRICELESS

The best part is watching brians stunned silence when shit goes down

Hey, Modern rogue. Try using corn starch, I have amazing success with that stuff. I once made a "powder flame thrower" by getting a PVC pipe, heating up the end then squashing it so the opening is flat. Then I put some corn starch inside, hold a torch on the flat end, then blow it so the powder is forced through the flat end and makes a cloud which is then ignited by the torch. It works every time.

Dat reaction after the first success. Adrenalin got him so hyped haha.

The problem with the flour is the moistness, if the flour becomes to moist the particles will stick together. Leave the flour in the open in direct focus of sun light to evaporate the moistness(microwaving and going overboard on the time might cause it to burn or catch fire, but could work). When the flour is dry it will spread each particle easily and become more flammable.

They gotta redact that "Fire begone" joke after the Fire Extinguisher episode

Thank you for finally explaining how Mario can throw fireballs with nothing but flour power.

I believe that when a powdered substance is has that precise fuel to air mix it is called conflagration. It can happen with a lot of powders you wouldn't think to be flammable, things like corn starch and flour are two good examples.
