I wasn't ready to hear the how it's made narrator describe piñatas as "representing satan" at one in the morning but here we are

Went from 0 to 100 real fast at the end. Did not know that about Piñatas.

everyone keeps saying how greedy everyone is for immediately grabbing the candy, just remember you're the one with the bat, do what you want with that information

God I love this show. The relaxed narration, the interesting machines and processes that we get to see. Me and my dad used to kick back and watch this everytime it came on tv back in the day. Thanks Science Channel

I did NOT expect the narrator to start talking about Satan and the 7 deadly sins towards the end... LMAO XD

Wow. Didn't expect to find so much respect for the art. This woman is an artist!

Wow, I never knew a children's game could have a very deep meaning like that

I think it's interesting how they described an old school version and a modern version, but neither one of those are the pinatas that I mostly see which are just made out of cardboard on the inside.

I always thought making piñatas of beloved characters was odd because the purpose of a piñata is to beat it with a stick but.... Now it's even weirder for a whole new reason... 😳

she did Not look happy blowing that balloon up 💀

I don't know what that poor pinata lady is going through, but she looks like she's going to jump off a bridge the second the camera crew leaves. This is made all the worse with all those warped, horrifying disney characters surrounding her from all sides in the background, staring off into space nearly as vacantly as she is. I weep for her. Life continually beats her down, and all that falls out.... is candy.

What an Amazing skill shes got. Salute and respect for all the work she had done

Pinatas were brought to Spain by the Italians. Originally called a Pignata, made from clay pots, and meant for adults. They filled them with booze. The Italians took the tradition to Spain, who decided that it was debaucherous to have an item like that (booze filled) and changed the way they were used, adding candy and trinkets for the children. The missionaries decided to add Christianity to it, but the creators most certainly NEVER intended it to be a way to convert anyone, it was a drunken game by a bunch of Italians. Now Mexicans use it for Jedi training😂😂😂 I am both Mexican and Italian, and ACTUALLY wrote a paper on the origin of the pinata in college.

Okay, funny story: one time when I was like seven, my brother's friend had a birthday party and I had helped setting up, and the pinata was the green power ranger, and when it came to my turn to hit the pinata, I had knocked off one of it's arms and sent it flying into the air. The next day, I was watching power rangers and wondered how the green ones arm was still there 🤣 man 7 year old me was crazy

My mom made pinatas the modern way for both mine and my sister's birthday parties when we were kids. She made a SpongeBob one that we remembered looked good, but when we found a picture of it, we all were shocked and laughing at how ugly and scary it looked lmao.

The concept of character themed piñatas is strange to me. It’s like “Oh my kid loves this character! I’ll have them beat the tar out of their favorite character on their birthday!”

Like a month ago we bought a mario piñata and that sucker was hard to break. The kid inflected no damage to it so they had us the teens break it. We went through 2 wooden Broom stick trying to break it. We found out that thing had double walled carbord. I had to rip mario`s head off with the broken wooden stick. It fell so wrong.

“Todays piñatas are a big hit at parties….” 🤣🤣🤣

"The star symbolized Satan" remains to this day the most out of left field How It's Made quote, even beating out the closing line from the segment on hearses.

Real handmade piñatas are hard to find in many places now. I love them.

I have autism and when I was 8, I was nervous at a party. My great aunt Janice had me stuff the pinata. Boy do I miss her.

Greetings from piñata land "México "

The ones at walmart are just cardboard boxes covered in paper

Piñata, The idea of breaking a container filled with treats came to Europe in the 14th century, where the name, from the Italian pignatta, was introduced.

Well that end was unexpected

Big twist at the end lol

Wow. Finally someone knew how piñantas came about. Only a few believed me and I'm Hispanic telling my Hispanic friends this. Thank you

Wow! That was quite interesting! Never imagined pinatas had religious origins.

Breaking open the Piñata feels a bit like greed, as everyone just keeps grabbing everything that falls out of it

This was my favorite one so far, especially with that twist ending. For a moment I was a little confused lol

Here in the Philippines we only use a simple clay pots filled with coins and candy 🍬🍭

How are we skimming over how insanely pretty her hair is 😭

my favorite part was the woman ripping apart the balloon with her teeth and then pulling out some scissors

I think it’d be hilarious to fill it with vegetables that none of the kids like

with that video thumbnail -15 social credit points

We used to do balloon meshay in class to make the sun

Wow..amazing techniques

My family and I always have piñatas and I always found kind of weird and sadistic to hit characters we like, why not satan or something we hate? Like a politician or a spider

5:02 that boy picking up and throwing down candy he doesn’t like. 😂

Thought of good old art attack with Neil Buchanan when he said paper mache. Oh, how a grown man feels nostalgia

*_“Is that a code for sex?”_* - Ice Cube, 21 Jump Street (2012).

truly an artist! amazing

Yeah pinatas always have candy.

I've seen this before in Art Attack and it was kinda cool

Here in Mexico we learn to make piñatas in primary school. I love this tradition, even though it was originated in Italy. Saludos, amigos! 👋🇲🇽

Love How It's Made!

One piñata got broken, and all the other piñatas ate all the candy. Now there are lots of piñatas. Enjoy.

From the moment my gaze lay upon the thumbnail, I felt a sharp decline of social credit in my veins.

I wanted to see them make the Winnie the Pooh one!

Back when me and my brothers were kids we used to make our own piñatas with our parents and I remember have lots of fun doing them. Gosh, how I miss those old days now both are gone.

When they plunder your gold but give you pinata for fun 🤣

The lady looked so pissed making em she was glaring at the camera lol

That’s the coolest looking piñata I’ve ever seen

Oh my 😮 that history with the missionaries.

How bout that. Really wasn't expecting such a history lesson at the end there😅👍

That pinata could poke someone in the eye-

Thank you for helping other on how they were made . (Some time)

Very. Very. Nice👍👍👍

Wow, didn't know the story about piñatas. And I'm from Latin America and grew up beating them to pieces on birthdays.

Meaningful and colorful game I have seen

I got to help break one open before at a birthday party several years ago and then we ate the treats!

Absolutely laughing my ass off at the end. Whole video was all calm and collect, just watching an artist make her beautiful creation and then we are getting lectured on satan worship.

It might be also interesting if the worker working on the piñata has its own how its made like how everyone else is requesting a how its made episode of the factory machines 😂😂😂

That buzz lightyear piñata looks high af 😆.

The explanation at the end gives it that certain Shin Megami Tensei feel all of a sudden.

Having an existential crisis while trying to eat ice cream and binge How It’s Made

03:41 You are being watched from inside the piñata.

OMG DID YOU EVER SEE THE HAUNTED PIÑATAS ON SLAPPED HAM? SOOOO SCARY!

Wow... that's a lot of work.

I have a fear of these things. One time, when i was about 6 the neighbor boy whacked me in the head with the stick because he broke the pinata and we all lunged for the candy and he was still swinging that stick and he hit me right in the face. To this day i literally can't stand to even watch kids whack at that thing 🤣

When he mentioned about satan and the meaning behind that piñata, I had to make sure I wasn’t watching the guy who voices these videos to troll… 😂 was a bit disappointed it wasn’t him

She looked real Happy to be there

My family don't use baseball bats to open these. Here in Pennsylvania, *we use a Kentucky flintlock rifle*

They forgot to show the best part where some dimwit inevitably gets a bat to the back of the head at these things, lol.

This woman looks thrilled

what do you call it when the kids fight over the heavenly goods? that's right, humanity

Good now I can make my own

Huh, the clay pot method seems time consuming, I’m sure the final blow is really satisfying tho. The balloon method has a lot of wiff when striking it, you might end up with a kick getting overzealous in their swing. But then, that’s why you have the kids standing far away from the action

Piñatas lore

Here’s Barney and Baby Bop Piñata

No hay fiesta sin piñatas en México

How and why this ended up in my suggestions....a wonder that will remain unsolved for all of eternity.

that pinata tale at the end just sound ridiculous and far fetched

You know you’re Mexican if you would walk around wearing the piñata head at a party🤣

My cousin Martha's bridal shower is on July 16th. I want the bridal shower to have a Joel Golby piñata.

Closed caption please

That is rite that is the way the piñata where made some time that is rite. But ??? Some time ago Where made a bit different.

1:37

That took a dark twist at the end

I want a Buzz Lightyear pinata and I'm 30 y/o lol, This is very interesting to see.

So...pinatas are a moral obligation???

I was distracted by the size of them behind her. Life size piñatas 😲🤯

I will never waste my money on one again..i will just make my own👌🤣🤣 Those things are not cheap

Uriyadi 😻😉

Well that took a very dark turn at the end.

Cool

I don’t think precision is this lady’s strong suit 😂

Lets be honest, none of us seached for this❤😊

Ohhh shit I been playing with the devil since the day I hit a piniata! ! 😆
