Seems like a British show

Australian. made in Adelaide, South Australia, 1972-1990 and exported around the world - Rob

@@CuriosityShow It was definitely exported to germany. I watched it as a kid in the 80s and I loved it. So happy to have found the channel. :D

They still have this show out in California but they renamed it to the Bicuriosity Show

@@Cfass1 bruh nice joke 😂

Wow... just... wow...

What are you talking about, he wanted to top off his Brain

that happens about twice a week in every country that has trailer parks and fuel theft.

A KZfaq video taken by a hidden camera of that event would have over a million hits! Surprise no one has faked it - Oh I think the News Networks are busy with other fake news

Thanks for that story ROFL. My wife and I had a really good laugh reading that.

Many thanks - lots more at kzfaq.info with new stuff each week for subscribers - Rob

for real dude. without a doubt correct man

It was a great show, should be on the air today here in Australia. Our children would be better educated and would have more constructive and interesting projects to get involved in.

@@arconeagain theres more money to be made by showing children cartoons, then selling toy characters from that cartoon. education cant compete with profit

@@hindugoat2302 yes this is too true. However, we have a thing called the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, a government, tax payer funded television channel/s. They have several kids channels and programming. They also play re runs and can acquire the rights to air certain programs. In saying that, I am not happy with the ABC. They have basically become a commercial channel, they endorse Facebook, Twitter and such. This is apparently accepted under the legislation, a bit of a loophole. They're meant to be completely independent of any kind of profiteering, commercial endorsement or bias.

I just hold the hose under a pipe..when water comes out the other end you simply close the ends or hold both ends up at the same level ( whichever way is fine, the goal is to not let the water in the hose escape and hence not let a lot of air get into the hose again)..put one end of the hose into the water to be siphoned and the other into a container to collect the water placed at a LOWER ELEVATION.. Now just watch gravity and Air-pressure do its magic!

Nice username. I guess it was inevitable

With the steady increase of gas prices this information is valuable. Close to 10 dollars a gallon by next year.

Lol I've been doin that since 4 yrs to work in my homes water storage... transferin watr from one to another... was goin to comment same procedure

derik yolk LOL

Thank you so much.

Kill me. I am dead already.

also look at the last 6 seconds

derik yolk hahahhaha lmao

CuriosityShow just like when this video was made?

Terrific video, I wished it was longer and talked about the limitation of this siphon's design, that it can't siphon all the water from the container, and got into to other designs.

CuriosityShow absolutely!

people believe in God because its more plausible than the Universe popped into existence from nothing for no reason or from no cause. If you like you can look at it from a scientific and atheistic point of view and simple accept that evolution and our survival depend on having hope and finding a reason to live on in times of desperation and that there is a all loving God who loves us and protects us and guides us etc... Why deny your scientific evolution? If there is no God then truth does not matter and evolution does not care either way other than survival and whatever works best for survival works best true or not.. Why interfere with you need to survive if the truth does not matter? Denying God is anti-evolution, anti-scientific and anti-dna..

+200jago Please don't start this shit.

Very kind of you - Rob

Our pleasure - you probably had it in you all along - Rob

Thanks very much; both still going and involved in science education - Rob

Me too! 4 or 4:30pm on Channel 9 if memory serves.

lolll fantastic comment

You were sat bored in school and ran home to watch this? hmmm

@@shaunohagan1491 Yes, the alternative was cartoons that were purely commercials for toys - like He-man or GI joe. The choice was simple.

Now they just need another video on how to get open all the different type of gas cover opening locks on vehicles these days.

LOL

its sad how broke youtube algorithm knows I am XD

@@mbuckley3828 the lockpicking lawyer covers that lol

My great pleasure - please spread the word - Rob

Very kind of you - Rob

Great idea! Thanks

Man I am going to empty so many tanks :)

that's assuming that the hose is not too big in diameter, otherwise you'd have to plug both ends of the hose, and that won't work in many scenarios

Inb4 water in tank

Gonna use this water prefilled idea on my gas tank cuz I too like to live dangerously

A great pleasure. I think it is an interesting bit of science rather than being a practical device but if it works and helps, I'd bve delighted - Rob

The Phenomenon of Capillarity, this applied in oul industry and there producing tubing are sized for maximum up lift from down under.

Great, thanks very much for thiose kind words, lots more at kzfaq.info - please spread the word- Rob

N1

that siphon looks like my wiener.

Oddly specific but clever and funny

Very kind, thanks - Rob

@@CuriosityShow Thank you Roberto!, for all the entertainment & education. (i like many others watched this after school in the 80s. The Goodies, Monkey Magic, Curiosity Show, etc.) I wonder how many lives you have impacted, and the quality speaks for itself - top notch stuff. You should feel very proud of what you have done, even if it may not be tangible. CHEERS

Great pleasure. lots more at kzfaq.info - Rob

Sure, if you can find a gas tank which is filled right up to the rim! 😂

Thanks for that, and for watching. lots more at kzfaq.info so spread the word among fellow science lovers - Rob

@My Thoughts his method uses the water's momentum, while this one uses the water pulled by a partial vacuum, no need to rely on momentum

I use this method for seawater aquaria regularly. It is the most straightforward method of siphoning with a flexible hose.

i feel like carrying around a small soft rubber tubbing around with me now. so when i go out drinking with friends i can use this method and then siphon their beer out into my empty glass. ill do quarter at a time so they wont notice

@@eddielopez3449 how did you get on?

yes. _100%_ accurate

CURIOSITY!!!

zirioz kcufin great

For real he really rammed that last one home

It was over as soon as he stuck it in ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Boo

Fair enough, and if you like pub tricks where you can win a free beer, have a look at kzfaq.info and go to the tricks and puzzles playlist. Heaps of them - Rob

Great job - thanks for the comment - Rob

THE OFFICIAL DROP BUTTON FINDER It isn't, it's trying to tell you something, turn on subtitles right at the start.

iCannoNz im assumeing it used to say kill me.....it says q me now

davezf89 no way it changed rip

They do, they're just not on cable television anymore, and are filmed in slightly better quality. There are countless educational videos not too different from this one all across youtube.

My thanks - still kicking on - Rob

Varun Gupta yeah

1 sept but yeah

Here in September

Yeah. Just corrected it.

So do we!

I hate you, honestly

EUREKA !! no more need to look for an assho e !! HE IS HEREEE !! honestly !!

Haha and were also reading and reveling in comments.

You mean a physicist?

which is the most likely scenario. Useless tip.

Then you use the first method!

You ſcale the deſign up uſing wider tubing, which allows for a higher riſe. Alternatively, depending on the exact ſituation, you can fill a normal garden hoſe with gas (cap off the end and uſe a funnel and ladle laſhed to a broomſtick) or in a more general ſituätion, if you're juſt throwing the liquid out, water (aſſuming it's not much leſs denſe then what you're ſiphoning- it would not be an option for mercury). Then, keeping at leaſt one end capped (you may need to cap both depending on the diämeter of the tube), poſition the tube and uncap it.

wow - 18th-century typeface

@@voice4voicelessKrzysiek you must have gotten your education in the United States

I put a non-soil grow bed on top of my aquarium with a pump to fill it and a bell siphon to drain. I have never cleaned my tank because my grow bed is a huge filter and the plants take up all the fish poo for nutrients.

buy an eheim gravel vac. it's got a filter inbuilt, you just stick it in your gravel and turn it on and it sucks the crap out and holds it so u can empty. about 200 bux

No problem. I designed one with PVC using a slightly different layout (tube in tube) and it works as a self-emptying device on a tank - Rob

Many thanks - we didn't know that it got to Israel - Rob

Beard banned everywhere

I was bout to say!

Uhmm... no, the pocket knife is not "banned in Melbourne," the laws simply state that you cannot have a knife out in public without good reason. Nowhere near "banned."

Is self defense against fruit a good reason?

No. It relies on 'dunking' it so fast that the water rushes over the first hill, and races down and up so quickly that momentum carries it over the second hill. Lowering it slowly won't work, and it also needs the second hill to be not much higher than the first, but as you can see, it does work if you get all the elements right - Rob

I see. I watched the video closer again, and you did drop it considerably faster the last 1/8" or so. But even so, without your finger on the other end, the pressure in the tube should be near equal. I'm guessing the small tube in relation to the viscosity of the water creates a slight enough delay giving it that momentum since you mentioned a small tube is key.

Rcbif - I'm going to disagree that it's the dunking that does it. Remember, he said the water level had to be at the top of the container - it's actually the fact that the low point that the water turns through is so far below the surface that there's added energy as it descends. this gives it more speed on the uphill - just enough to overcome the second Rise and start flowing through. It wouldn't matter how fast you dunked it, if the water was not up to the edge of the siphon container, it would not work.

Eric Kieber Energy can't come from nothing - the water has to overcome height, so it needs dunking (movement). So a classic case of kinetic energy transformed in potential energy.

- The energy isn't coming from nothing. The shape of the siphon pipe is taking advantage of the fact that water is heavy - it has to rush down that first descent in the "M" shape, and it goes well below the surface of the container. Because there is more pressure there than at the surface (due to gravity), it speeds up the water's travel. Then as it climbs the next uphill section, it has that additional speed to then overcome the slight height difference and keep pulling the rest of the column behind it, starting the 'siphon' effect. The 'trick' in this is when the water first goes over the lower crest - it can be slow until then, but once it gets past that it will flow very quickly and start siphoning. Hopefully that explains it better.

Huntz Kushe You Tube not only recommends what you want, it recommends what you need. You needed to learn something.

I used to love the Curiosity Show. Every Saturday, I'd make sure I was home to see it.

Might I suggest some spelling videos?

Bruh

It's his soothing voice

Run the hose under a tap, wait for it to be filled..close both ends and not let water out, put one end in the aquarium other into a bucket or whatever under a lower elevation... release!
