It's amazing to think that when it cracked open, it's the first time it's seen light. Those crystals were in the dark for millions of years.

I’m impressed by how clean it was broken open

Amethyst: *sleeps* for millions of years. People: *bonk*

I see why they're adding this to Minecraft. Pretty neat.

Geologists would call this a Geode. However as an intellectual, I like to refer to this mineral formation as a "magic egg".

Not going to lie, almost more interested in the tool you're using than the geode itself LOL

Who else got this on their recommendations out of no where and having never watched anything like this yet still feels happy it did because same

Geodude from pokemon: *Sweating nervously*

As a kid this is how I imagined where rock candy came from lol

You just killed a baby dragon...

Rick: I'll give you 5 dollars for that rock and I'm taking a huge risk here...

You're lucky a Dragon didn't jump out.

That’s for snapping cast iron drain lines, and it opens geodes as well apparently

"Amethyst geode being cracked open" Me: *p u r p l e c o c o n u t*

"Amethyst geode being cracked open" Me: Ancient Dinosaur egg

I read: _"Stunned Atheist Geologist being cracked open"_

Looks like an expensive fruit for stone people.

So that’s what Geodude looks like on the inside.

I love this! Decades ago we went into dry fields around y Czech grandother's village and cracked the many geodes (most clearly much much smaller than this one) with hammers, just as my mother did as a kid. There were many (typically sized between a walnut and a tangerine) with beautiful insides - including delicate shimmering topaz and amethyst coatings, not just quartz (tested after we returned home to our country). To this day some of the most precious memories from those visits (I was six and eight when we did it).

Imagine how many rocks you passed that actually we're amethysts

That’s a clean break

"Gunther can tell you more about this if you donate it to the museum."

This is so similar to the minecraft version of amethyst geode lol, you can see it god tuffs, calcite than the amethyst, is so realistic.

I’ve always wondered how geodes were opened. Thank you! That’s a beautiful find.

This is not how it's portrayed in Stardew Valley.

“you’re like this rock, unassuming on the outside but a treasure within.”

“He replied, “If they kept quiet, the stones along the road would burst into cheers!””

We.... are the crystal gems, we'll always save the day!!!

The new Minecraft snapshot is looking awfully realistic...

Imagine if there were life forms inside the geode and it was their entire known universe, until it was split into half. Must be an apocalyptic event.

This gift is fabulous! Thank you so much!

I literally dont understand why you’d dislike this, its a rock

Meanwhile in stardew valley : "Oh wow i got 3 pieces of rocks."

"They're minerals.... Marie"

See everyone when this reccomended in 10 years

What’s the point of giving this video a 1000 dislike when they are just opening a rock ?

"you call that a nutcracker?? Well, ya'all watch this."

imagine randomly throwing rocks not knowing there where amethyst inside it

A visual representation of anyone trying to get emotionally close to me.

Can't believe they made the minecraft amethyst geode in real life

The geode is stunning, but that device... wow!

The tool is called a snap cutter, and is used to snap cut cast iron drain lines. Fun fact: if the cast iron drain lines are too thin, it can be unwise to use this tool, because it can create a crack along the pipe line where the cast iron has thinned out from corrosion.

Every legendary video is less than a minute

KZfaq is the friend who is always showing you some random video they found that is just mildly interesting.

“Roses are red" “Violets are blue" “If its less than a minute" “I'll give it a view"

6 yearold me who opened my geode with a plastic hammer, fork and a ton of books:

It’s like a giant nutcracker

I love your clever system of cracking it open so neatly. I have a small (a little bigger than a ping pong ball) rattlebox geode, but I will never crack it open. The beauty that has lain hidden within for millions of years will remain so, but at least I get to keep the rattle.

It’s amazing to think about the growth of that over time and those crystals now seeing the light of day. Crazy. Pretty difficult to wrap your head around actually

Geodes in real life: Geodes in Stardew valley: "Congratulations! Now you have am ancient spoon!"

I have a geode exactly like this sitting on my desk! It’s absolutely beautiful!

Looks like someone is using the new minecraft snapshots

Something is REALLY wrong with this guy's coconut

KZfaq clearly knows I’ll watch just about anything at this point.

“Damn it Marie! For the 10th time these are minerals, not geodes!”

Minecraft brings me to weird places fam

That’s a cool looking coconut you got there.

The light of day has NEVER shined inside that Geode. Amazing

I saw a comment where they said the crystals haven’t seen light for millions of years. That’s like me but the only light I see is the lights coming from my computer.

The youtube algorithm is truly an enigma

That seems a lot easier than repeatedly throwing it against a bigger rock, like I would as a kid. Lol

My birth stone is an amethyst, I was fascinated by the title itself.

Thanks for sharing! So beautiful

Ok.. this is fake.. he didn’t even pay Clint the 25 Gold..

He freaking spilled all the geode milk on the ground.

I was never interested in the formation of crystals until this video, it looks amazing.

I've never seen that before.......absolutely beautiful.....I love amethyst...

My dad picked up a couple geodes in his travels long before I was born, and throughout my childhood they just kicked around in the garage. He said he thought they could be geodes but were probably just rocks. My brother and I asked about them on day and he said, "well, let's get the sledge and find out". We smashed them open and they were geodes like this! They were nothing special to anyone else, but knowing he held on to them for a couple of decades and only checked them out with his inquisitive kids; the moment will always be one of my most treasured memories.

laughing at the fact that this vid seems to have popped up on everyone else's recommended at the same time

Nobody: KZfaq recommended: Wanna see this pretty geode?

This is going to need Rose's entire fountain.

"Jesus Christ, Marie, they're minerals!"

HANG ON A MINUTE, I don't see nearly enough "KZfaq algorithm" garbage comments, what's going on

Wow he cracked that open with nothing more than a wrench and a bicycle chain.Human ingenuity at work.

Bro honestly, why did I flinch so hard when they cracked it?

It's really amazing when you contemplate it, this is millions of years old and you are the first people to see inside...

i feel like back in the 1800s someone got pissed and threw a rock and it broke in half and discovered these

Is it in my recommended? Yes. It it under 1 minuet? Yes. Then I click!

Everyone: wow so beautiful, much awe Me: I am dangerously tempted to put my arm in that tool

I like your mistical egg, magic man

always when you find video that is that short: *“Yes.. I do actually have time for this“*

Crystals are so freaking beautiful. They’re a gift from god!

A time capsule opened after who knows how much time. Beautiful

Got pyrite in there aswell 👍

I would like to see anyone grinding the rocky outer layer and leave the crystal ball intact😍

That cut tho. That was clean and satisfying.

First time this has seen the light of day in millions of years. My first thought.

Amethyst Geode: **exists* Mojang: ah yes, Biome.

00:25 sounds like a minecraft window pane breaking lmao

“My geode must be acknowledged!” - Martin Prince

The most mazing thing was that the innards have never seen daylight or air for millennia. It does go to show that man’s desire for “shiny” hasn’t diminished since caveman times...

KZfaq 2 years later: "*Ahem* My geode must be acknowledged!"

I just want to say: 2 years later and the guy is still hearting comments and replying. What a legend

I barely even understood the title when I clicked but i clicked anyway and I'm glad i did!

My Great Uncle was a Rockhound. He used to cut these geodes open with his diamond cutting blade.

i thought im looking at a spoiled coconut with shimmering meat

"Hello everyone this is your daily dose of internet"

Absolutely stunning...

That coconut is gorgeous 😍

I'm waiting for all the minecraft comments On a different note, that geode is incredibly beautiful! Truly a wonderful find!
