Here because of the face

Some people use those big youtube earnings for Ferraris. Cody just uses it to buy more gold and mercury to play with.

"There's a nugget of gold in there!" All I could hear was a prospector saying "THERE'S GOLD IN THAT THERE GOLD!"

"Hey guys! I found a nugget of gold!" "Oh cool. Where?" "Inside this ball of gold!"

I'm pretty sure Cody made the thumbnail and title like that as a parody, or maybe satire to show what KZfaq has become. Also so he doesn't incite violence.

Man opens world's most expensive kinder egg, 2018 (colorized)

The world's most expensive cat toy.

After careful consideration I have concluded this man has the most interesting channel on KZfaq.

Is this cody's version of flexing?

Good thing you mentioned it's stored in a safety deposit box. It'd suck for someone to break in because they think you have gold lying around in a sock drawer.

Havent watched yet, but if the answer isnt gold, Im gonna be pissed

“Hey, dude do you have a tape measure?” Cody: oh yeah, sure *Whips out solid gold foil”

3:36 The world's most expensive slap bracelet. You should have had Guinness certify it.

Forget Cody's safety deposit box! We'll just vacuum his floor.

Cody your thumbnail tactic worked lad. well done.

At this point I'm pretty sure that Cody also contains more gold than average.

"I'm not dumb enough to leave this in my house..." *Nervous Laughter*

*goes to trending* Faces everywhere. It's kinda creepy how these companies like KZfaq/Facebook are using these algorithms/AIs.

3:37 Who needs a Gucci belt when you can have a belt made of solid gold?

I just love how Cody is obviously rich but he'd rather be a nerd and let us nerd out too. Thank you Cody

My guess is gold

Wow. I'm glad I stuck around for that acid etch at the end that looks cool

Me: Driving around wondering what random stuff people might be doing. Cody: Outside playing with a $25,000.00+ ball of gold.

This little project you did could be considered an Art piece! That natural formation inside the ball was actually very interesting.

This ball is like an onion. Which means that the ball is like Shrek. Which means CodysLab is just a huge setup to promote the release of Shrek 5's prominent character.

That etching at the end is MASSIVELY satisfying. THANK YOU!

that gold ball vibrating is because you cody, you sir have made it get very close to critical mass. . . much further and it will collapse and then explode and produce another big bang. A universe within a universe, and one where you and me are gods

The description... "I make my ball bigger and then cut it open." Cody, never, Ever, EVER, put those words together in that sequence again.

Sputter a gold thin film onto a pair of glasses and make yourself some space-ready shades, no one else is going to have a pair of those.

Cody finally getting into the clickbait scene... 10/10 Cody

Another great video Cody. Thanks for being you......Your honest curious integrity shines through every time. keep'em comin bud!

5:13 I figured you being Cody’s lab having made all the things you have, you would make this metal flattener motorized instead of that tiring crank 🙏🙏

Amazing video. You forgot the obligatory red arrow and circle on the thumbnail ;)

I am so glad, that you are still the good old cody without the stupid grind for views.

Such a joyful thumbnail. Thanks for the happiness, Cody x)

Been watching since the 🐝 keeping and this channel is still putting out awesome videos. Good job on your success cody, you deserve it

Answer - Gold.

The "sphere" stuck inside is quite impressive, the cavity it left looks so smooth and shiny. Oh, and loved the "behind the scenes" of the thumbnail ! :p

lol it has been a while, I almost had forgotten how much fun is watching your videos. You're so unpretentious person 👍

I love Cody, been watch his channel for years now currently revisiting some of his old ones

Cody: the only human to make a solid gold geode.

I do hope this goes trending. It is pretty interesting. I was amazed how beautiful it looked when you took out the nugget from the middle

Ur vlogs are so cool to watch I'm glad I found them it gives me something else to watch when I'm not doing anything and I can learn a lot from watching

Love the etched half at the end. Awesome video.

Ah yes, golden fruit by the foot.

An actually interesting whats inside channel is what Codys Lab was secretly all along. The only key difference from the other whats inside channel is that this one is actually interesting

This dude seems genuinely nice and cool. Glad his channel is successful

8:10 Hey its okay hes just a scared little ball of gold

_That thumbnail_ Please don't let Grant Thompson rub off on you too much you mean too much to this community.

I didn't know you could weld material with just pressure and no friction. Thanks for teaching me stuff Cody.

Love watching you work with gold , it is such an amazing precious metal

For a while I lost your channel to the algorithm but I'm so glad I've stumbled upon it again. Your vids are seriously some of my favorites on this entire website

If the algorithm is genuinely prioritizing faces I am going to be genuinely pissed off

Cody is just about the only youtuber left whom you can actually trust when it comes to thumbnails and titles, bless you alchemy-Jesus.

Love how you talk so openly about making a thumbnail and your ideas about the youtube system

This is my favourite video you have made that was awesome at the end!!!

The worlds most lavish cat toy.

The crystalline structure of the gold after etching was absolutely beautiful!

For some reason I tend to forget about this channel and then out of nowhere I remember it exists, but you're legitimately one of my all-time favorite KZfaqrs.

That is wayyy more solid than i expected man. Nice work.

Could the vibration be something similar to a Stirling engine? The loose inner piece would be displacing internal gases as it moves and they could be alternately cooling and heating against the unevenly heated inner surfaces

Rolling the ball across the table was great! Obviously, i trusted you when you said it was heavy, but the sound of that gave me a much greater sense of it. ❤️

I have always wanted to do something like this. Not because it costs a lot of money but just because it's so fascinating to me how metal interacts with itself. So cool.

Dude, you have just inspired me to get back into gold panning down here in GA. Thank you so much!

Just continuously make a larger gold ball for your retirement savings. Once you're older the value of gold will make you a tone of profit and have the added benefit of watching your savings grow in the form of a ball.

Put the ribbon in the roller and then weld the ends together, then start rolling! See how long you can make the loop!

Please keep making vids :) the colors of the solutions when you recover metals are amaaazing. 😆👍👑

oh my gold! that etched result is stunning!

Thumbnail look like the crayon kid lol

Cody puts on make up and mirror polishes something on a comedy tv show. Number 1 on trending

Gold is high in science AND high in fun. I like watching you do stuff with it.

The best channel on youtube! Thanks!

Another amazing video featuring more gold than I will ever see in my whole life in reality. :D It's sad to see this channel struggle with KZfaq by being so good... :(

I used to be a goldsmith for several years. Never seen a vibrating gold ball but I did make a ring before that had a noticeable pulse at approx. the same frequency as a human heart. It was creepy but it stopped after about 10 seconds. Only happened once and I made hundreds of rings etc

Just found your chl, and you seem like a pretty cool dude. Can’t wait to see your other vids.

I see the ark furnace that grant Thompson showed how to make RIP 4:40

That segment at the end was absolutely unbelievable, I got so close to my monitor to fully take in the sheer beauty of it, it really was something that I have never seen before! Loving what you're doing, and I love the thumbnail segment!

Without watching video I think I can safely say there is gold inside the gold ball

Dude , you're awesome. Well done!

It's like a golden geode... sorta. You should make a pinball out of it and put it in a "Gold Strike" pinball machine.

I guess the next step is to make a fabergé egg out of that gold, Cody.😉

Hi Cody, mabye you could recreate the "Geiger-Marsden experiment", it would be fun to see that done on your channel since it involves gold (goldfoil) and something with radioactivity :D. You could show us how it was done in the 19th century As always i love your content!

Rock on Cody! Love your videos!!!

That little gold ball is really cool. It's shiny, and rattle-y, and I like it.

Super interesting. That was fun. Thanks!

That Feel When You defeat Smaug and reclaim Erebor but you find out all the gold was used to fill his cavities.

I don’t think you understand how much I enjoyed watching you make a thumbnail

So I just randomly watched the video where you made this ball, and I thought "man I wish I could cut it open and actually see the smaller ball". I guess I've being watching way too many videos, because that's exactly what you did. Why is this so satisfying?

At the end So many layers. Shrek would be proud

Description sounds painful

Oh because of the addition in the end it was in my recomms again. That is really cool to see the gold layers and what seems to be the crystalline structure.

We need more Codys and Kanyons in this world. We really do.

Why do so many people comment before watching the videos? Sick of reading stupid questions that are clearly answered if you watch the video first!

THE MOTION ANSWER: The people commenting on how the oscillation might be like a modified Stirling engine are very close! The movement IS caused by a differential thermal expansion/contraction across the multiple inner spheres as well as adiabatic expansion in the gas content of the inner spaces, but the differential itself is not driven by gaseous motion or displacement, although it does play a minor role since the ball is in contact with the anvil which acts as a heat sink, but since it is a sphere the point of contact is tiny and thus so is the thermal transfer, relatively. Instead, the motion of the balls is driven by a harmonic expansion/contraction in the surface area of the spheres, which itself is driven by the difference in the annealing rates of the outer and inner spheres as they first gain and then lose heat in sequence from the outside -> in. Using a point source of heating exacerbates this since there is also a major difference in heating/cooling rates from the point-contacts of the spheres upon each other which is dependent on the relative distance between the direction of heating and the direction of gravity, which is the resting-state point of contact for all of the inner spheres and thus the major point of heat transfer between them. Gold is not the only substance that shows this property as many metals with a high thermal conductivity and large crystal grain structures also show harmonic oscillation as grain boundaries are broken and re-formed. Essentially when crystal grains in the material are broken under heating, they release mechanical strain as energy which causes a minute linear expansion/contraction in the material and on a (theoretically perfect) sphere this takes the form of a small force being imparted perpendicular to the surface. Thus, anything on the outside of the sphere is pushed outward and anything resting on an inside surface is pushed toward the center. This force is incredibly small but is magnified during high rates of crystal breakage/forming. Vibrations within the surface area of a circle/sphere are by definition harmonic in nature, i.e. why a wine glass "sings" and so given enough time and a reasonably consistent ratio of crystal formation/breakage, the motion of the inner spheres will settle into the lowest energy harmonic state. You could easily test this by heating the gold sphere with a symmetrical heating element (non-point source) until you reach the point of full general annealing where mechanical stress is at minimum, which for 990 gold is something like 1400-1500 F. Then you SHOULD see the oscillation slowly become smaller as the internal spheres also reach mechanical minimum in turn from the outside -> in. However, if you tried this and saw something different like the oscillation continuing or even increasing... well then that would be very, very interesting indeed!

10:10 "let's focus on the ball" *focuses on the table*

You are still and by far the best science guy!

Cody, You've probably been asked this dozens of times, but have you looked into making Aerogel?

Clickbait thumbnail lacking the generic red arrow pointing at the thing you're already looking at :( Great video though! Can't wait to see what you'll do with the gold next

Very cool Cody, nice video :)

15:26 aka "Don't come and try to steal it from me."
