  • just lines up with the object's magnetic field right?

  • ¨song played with kitara

  • But will it blend?

  • Can someone tell me what this is? Black wather?

  • @TheRusJoker Ferrofluid

  • dear santa...

  • how did i get here from team fortress 2 videos?

  • looks like a dildo...

  • eat it

    

  • but can us adults do acids ???

  • don't do acid kids, do science :P

  • Ouch?

  • Fuck it..Wheres my top comment!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • but will it blend?

  • That is just trippy! almost sci fi - what practical use could this have ? "it could definitely be used as a movie prop

  • im in that part of youtube again

  • did anyone else get shivers watching this?

  • is that real?

  • @R3L14NT94 yup

  • But... will it blend?

    

  • I think it would be infinitely more difficult to masturbate WITH,

  • IT'S ALIVE!!!!!

  • looks like my dick.

  • @MrTRISTANCOOL Why did you put "cool" at the end of your name?

    Are you some immature kid that thinks you're cool cause you do stupid stuff to make your idiot friends laugh? GTFO, conformist.

  • @snowboarderforlyfe lol:D noo, I have this account since a long time:D an mrtristan already existed:(

  • if i had one of these things, i would wave my hand around it and pretend i was Magneto.

  • This should be done with magnaglo fluorescent particles under an inspection black light... hell, may as well make the suspension be liquid penetrant... Here's to the good old days, when science was my bitch. xD

  • Can I stick my dick in it?

  • I find this... weird to look at.

  • Is Ferro fluid always black?? Could one not use coloured inks?

  • @mcnowski iron is pretty much black and so is oil, which are the two main ingredients..

  • Oh shit, how did I get here?!

  • @ 1:17 Does any one else see the face its giving us?

  • I came

  • Dissolve copious amounts of salts and limestone in it >.>

  • I am in the wierd part of youtube again

  • but will it run crysis?

  • @TheMacyp Does it need to?

  • @ankit383 Everything needs to run crysis.

  • i've seen enough hentai...

  • But will it blend ?

  • amazon link pls?

  • wth?

  • 0:33

    Punisher's dildo.

  • its... ALIVE!!!

  • I dont understand whats happening..

  • I have some of this. If you put it in a jar with purified water it lasts forever. Otherwise, it's extremely messy, stains and will jump to your magnets so use the water jar method.

  • KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ~ SQUIGLEY!!!!!!

  • Nic0late that's unfortunate. i on the other hand was not only turned on but able to finish well before the end of the video. i did change the music to "knives out" by radiohead. consider giving that a try or a tune you're especially fond of. it couldn't hurt. better luck next go around. :~

  • how did i get here from portal 2 walkthroughs?

  • NO shit! it is nice

  • ferro fluid

    

  • Didn't smallville use a similar liquid to this in their series?

  • 1:18 vibrator

  • Srbija ceka Seselja!!!

  • coool!

  • amazingggg

  • Why don't they use stuff like this in High School?! Nobody would fail physics with experiments like this.

  • @Quizzicality that is a whole other field of science & it is called psychology. if you know psychology then you know evil people do not want educated public. ignorant people are better servants. that is why the church burnt them books, then you have to know history to know that. then if you know history real good you learn alchemists did that been there etc. this is science that existed thousands of years ago until the religious leaders decided it interfered with mass enslavement.

  • @smokesignal216 woa man, keep your tin foil hat away from me.

  • @Quizzicality ok stay in your dellusional world and give your flake suggestions. you obviously did not want the answer. does it make you feel good that USA is last in the world in math, science & even English is spoken better but most foreign born than by american born? wait I am going way over your head head. keep your baseball hat on cause that is all you care & know.

  • @smokesignal216 First of all, this is physics, because physics deals with magnetic fields among other things. Psychology is the study of the human mind, I don't know how you went from physics to psychology in one fell swoop, it has nothing to do with what I was talking about in the first place. Secondly, don't assume that just because you're sitting behind your anonymous computer screen that you can treat people however you fell like. Don't bother replying because I'm blocking you.

  • @Quizzicality You are the one farting out words & suggestions then expect people not to comment about it. you baldly gave your suggestion of how the government's controlled schools should teach. Psychology is a science also & government uses it to keep its people undereducated while they import educated foreigners to take the good jobs. You started talking about education & how visual demonstrations like this should be used in schools, you are right but your government won't do it.

  • @Quizzicality Physics to psychology. Sounds like someone is playing the wikipedia game.

  • Magnets. How the fuck do they work?

  • @EducateTroll

    You can find textbooks all around;

    have a read, that shit can expound!

    Force fields, light, and covalent bonds:

    photons mediate the electrons.

    Electricity and magnetism are sides of a wave,

    equations describe just how they behave.

  • cos'èèè

  • Is that oil and electric? 

  • what ja fudge?

  • one word: SPIDERMAN 3

  • stratecaster547 is gonna be really pissed off.

    

  • my computer screen crashed

  • coming soon...T-1000

  • this is not here. it's made by aliens.

  • What the hell did I forget here.

  • what is that fluid?

  • what is that fluid?

  • @randy52000 ferrofluid, small metallic particles in suspension in an oil of some kind

  • The T1000 is just one more step closer to becoming a reality and murdering us all thanks do this.

  • I find this hard to masturbate to.

  • @Nic0late You dont need to masturbate on every video on youtube..

  • @Nic0late

    u must not be doing it right

  • @Nic0late i dont :)

  • @Nic0late uhmmm...

  • @Nic0late NOICE!!!

  • @Nic0late I also see you find it hard to make your own comments.

  • @Nic0late Do you now... I don't.

  • @Nic0late I Find this fascinaing to masterbate to

  • @MyPantsAreOnFire100c Its giving me a science boner

  • @MyPantsAreOnFire100c you must be a master bater

  • @Nic0late Well, I finished before the video did. It's not that hard.

  • i like trains o__o

  • @DarthMufin Good luck with your mental disorder, sir!

  • Comment removed

  • i play around with the metal shavings in gear fluid every time i change my differential fluid. looks the same

  • Id say its probably a bad thing that this turned me on :(

  • It's Venom from Spiderman.

  • every girls' dream dildo

  • I cant imagine some 20 people enjoying anything in life

  • I wonder where this technology will be useful in. Maybe we'll have cellphones that can do stuff like these. Or hotels that have the first floors that doesn't have any solid in it. All you have to do is prob wear some magnetic shoes, that are the same as the liquid magnet in the ground. The only problem comes when people take off their shoes...

  • And this is what our children will be masturbating too in the future...

  • i wanna touch it

  • Song name please anybody omfg finger me

  • How did you do this?

  • 1:02 its a dragon

  • i have no idea what i'm watching right now!!! XD

  • How did I get here?

  • @jffersontube lol same thoughts from me. 

  • weird part of youtube again....

  • Fascinating yes, useful? Probably not.

  • Fascinating

  • Now drink some, i dare you.

  • magnet science is fun! there's been a new magnetic field discovered, "magnetic vortex spin"! cool!

  • @bubblologist Really, Can you give me details, I've been searching for such an event.

  • 1 question. Where the fuck am i gonna buy this stuff?!?

  • -_- Look the end of the Video!!

  • does anybody knows the name of the music playin??

  • 0:47 super vibrator

  • How the fuck did i end up watching this? lmao

  • @aznface94

    same. but for different reasons I'm sure.

    I'm wondering how I got here from watching some videos on scarification...

  • DAMN... I STARTED THINKING ABOUT DILDOS.

  • The magnets will not let me leave YouTube...it's true i tells ya ;o)

  • playing around with toner eh

  • file X

  • now do it with some BHO errl 4ever

  • what is that :O :O and what will happen if you touch it?

  • I'm not sure how to describe it, but this fluid is really ugly.

  • I love the intellectual contrast of the top two comments

  • @stratecaster547 i love it as well

  • @stratecaster547 What was the other comment?

  • Ahhh you all ruined it by making MY comment part of the top two!! The other original comment was:

    One thing many are missing is the fact these videos are demonstrating - to whit: Magnetic lines of force are just that... discrete and seperate. That means that magnetic fields are self repelling/attracting in space regardless of the medium. [..]Gravity doesn't... does the strong or weak nuclear force do that?What does this self bunching/repelling behaviour mean at small scales?At cosmic scales?

  • @stratecaster547 English please:D

  • @darkdrawn just because you can't read it doesn't make it a different language :O

  • @zomgitsuudon I was being sarcastic dude no offence:/

  • @darkdrawn Even so, it pisses the crap out of a lot of people, one being me, when some one does that. '_'

  • where do you get ferrofluid?

  • @13thVulture at the supermarket

  • @13thVulture Ferro fluid is just Iron - Fe - and fluid, probably oil. As someone else states, any differential oil will have the same properties.

  • youtube is fucked up i went from dubstep to family guy to something about a whale to a magnetic spinning top that explodes to this. thumbs up if you agree

  • how did i end watching this? :O

  • my brother: KILL IT WITH FIRE AND HOLY WATER!!!!

  • H4><0RZ!!!111!!1

  • Yeah right, I've seen Terminator 2

    I'm the fuck out of here

  • Yeah right, I've seen Terminator 2

    I'm the fuck out of here

  • Mercury HMMM?>/

  • @HarrisSpinos: Ferrofluid. A concoction of ferrite powder mixed with a highly stable oil. It's very sensitive to magnetic fields whereas mercury is not.

  • i want whatever that is!

  • It is called ferro fluid

  • what is this?

    

  • its the gas for the aliens on district 9!!

  • magnetic fluid is awsom

  • 0:34 it looks like the penis from Hell

  • @MichaelBurling13 you made me want to watch some hentai

  • @MichaelBurling13 Any thought deserves attention.

  • @MichaelBurling13 0:47..... THATS the penis from hell

  • Are the shapes created solid?

  • dear santa...

  • What does this have to do with crop circles? Can you guess?

  • fucking magnets...

  • how does this even follow the laws of physics?!!?!?!?!?!

  • Mix this with nanodots, oil, water, and either drink, freeze, or stare at in amazement

  • Mix this with nanodots, oil.

  • this tech could be used to make advanced body armour

  • wow it is amazing how does he do it

  • its called ferrofluid

  • Ok and I have a quart jar of powdered magnetic laser toner laying around and some vegetable oil and a turkey baster. Ok that seems like all thats needed to get a crude start on doing this I surmise. I think that possibly one could use a larger backing dish and maybe like 2-3-4-6-8 of this electromagnets on seperate supplies and get some cool effects go on especially if interacting with some superstrong rare earth magnets. I wonder if having some PWM sullies could set up some radical patterns??

  • Ok so I am a security alarm tech and electrician, as well as electronic tech. I recognise (I Think?) a very powerfull magnetic lock used on doors to close when energised. I have about 20 of these laying about. now the most basic configuration i am seeing here is hooking up a variable 0 to 12vdc or 0 to24vdc powersupply.(got that) Ok this looks like a petri dish sitting on top of the magnetic lock coil, with a 1/4" x 3" or so long lag screw, stainless might be better than galvanized since smooth.
