Mythbusters - Aerosol cans and beer keg on camp fire

[jeremiahsherrill]

I once put a can of spaghetti in a fire in my back yard, the can exploded out of the fire and landed on my neighbors roof over 200 feet away... splattering their roof with spaghetti.

[TheGibberishGuy]

Adam: Do you have chocolate?

Jeremy: I thought you had it.

Adam: Oh no...

[cosplayman96]

drink the beer silly basterd,

[iTsStEpHyyyy]

@cosplayman96 lol and totally true

[seanpirwin]

Beer kegs are lethal. I live in connecticut and a few years ago there was a party in new milford and 4 people were killed and 22 people were injured when a beer keg exploded

[SciVation1991]

@seanpirwin i live in ct too, and we blew up a mini-keg...i can't imagine a full sized one.

[TheCommentFreak101]

ALWAYS remember that aresol cans take a while to explode

thats why everyone always gets burnt by them!!

people think its not gonna blow so as soon as they get close to check it out....boom

[randomvideowatcher]

That's what they call alcohol abuse.

[MegaWhalter]

What a waste of beer :D!!If they had used more aerosol cnas (eg. 5,6 or 7) i can bet in a hundred bucks it would be lethal.

[Zacspooky]

the aerosol can can be lethal also. Father used to be in fire brigade he's seen them go through brick walls so if it can go through a brick wall it could do some damage to a person..

[WildBuck007]

Really long SlimJims can explode if heated over a camp fire. But at the same time get it up in heat in one and its good =D

[Firemann93112]

nooo!!!!!!!!!! the good beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[04QuickSilver07]

"bad idea to waste beer...

-hahah, yeah!" :D

[maltacross1987]

Cry what a waist of beer the horror.

[sgtGrif]

Anyone have a clue what the music is from 3:40 - 3:56 ?

[beertits4me]

bring the keg back to the beerstore and demand your deposit

[Skulblaka1987]

thumbs up if you had a moment of silence in memory of the wasted beer.

[sentientagent]

those are some pretty crappy ass fires.

[killshot13000]

2:16 looks like napalm ^ ^

[KarX211]

Slipknot members would be sad about that beer keg...

[Ahmedmajed88]

i love their jobs :( makes me super jealous

i wana be a myth buster

[remotecontrolaholic]

these recordings are great quality. thanks for posting!

[joshonator12]

time to attempt to make a rocket with an aerosol can!

[rsnerm543]

HOBO DINNERS!!!!!!!!

[19elly94]

Don't waste all that beer :(

[RKTGX95]

0:43 : "This Is a kind of thing i do on the weekend" Who Dont ?

[seanpirwin]

2:59 lol

[joesmoe71]

Jay Leno once had a headline about a series of beer kegs in a campfires killing partiers, it read "New, stupid way to die discovered"

[MegaTrollol]

Huston, we have lift off

[evilsnuffalupagus]

best thing I ever put in a campfire was an unopen can of coke.

made a big badaBOOM!

[yourmomface21]

come on guys you just wasted a beer keg. they make awesome instruments , slipknot can prove it

[Chelsearox532]

Adam's other idea of safety:

Adam: Move the glass barrier a few inches back.

[supersquidink]

is it was on its side it would shoot like a bullet

[shithustler420]

wasted a whole keg of beer boys :( not good

[jrod2208]

try a Heineken mini one. found out they throw molten plastic as well

[BlauRFasan]

A friend of mine once put a can of red bull in a campfire. After 30 minutes, nothing happened and we forgot about it . Of course, 10 minutes later, i was warming my hands at the fire and the fricken thing blew up. Couldn't see for about 15 minutes and had burned spots all over my arms, thanks god not in my face. But anyway, dont try this, it hurts like a bitch

[xarlz159]

i will use it to propel rockets much lesser cost.

[BullshitBlocker]

awesome quality



[SloppybobStudios]

We set fire to an aerosol at school (in the yard) once - didnt blow up

[Johnnyboyinthehouse]

if the keg would have been full, it would probably been way more lethal!

[hplogsdon]

@Johnnyboyinthehouse Actually, a mostly full keg has less headspace for air/gas compression and would probably break the keg earlier, with less force. A mostly empty keg would end up turning most of the liquid to gas, as well as expand any air/gas in the headspace, which is much more compressible than liquid, and would end up building more pressure and force before it exploded.

[Hiei102493]

@hplogsdon Regardless of space, the same pressure would be required to blow. There would be more steam, though, which would probably contribute to a larger boom.

[Caninefire]

2:30 is the best

[superpwnageguy]

who wants to go to kegger near a campfire?

[OctoberBlues89]

As a kid my bro always killed these things when he had the chance, these guys are pretty harmless I dont know why. 

[SuperSaiyan877]

I wana job like that...

[maplerocks2429]

they could have built a fire around the beer keg

[r390gt1lm]

thats probably the only good way to use beer :D spill it on the ground making funny ass sounds and blowing it da fak up :D :D greatness :D

[xxdef85xx]

The one dislike either got burnt by tossing aerosol onto a fire, or sad that they wasted the watery american beer

[JonasClark]

If that was full of Bud Light, LITE beer or Natty, that was the only thing they're good for.

[drinkdrankdrunk88]

iv done this with a plastic keg... oops it threw about fourty blazing logs about onehundred yards iv every direction.

[GiggleGuyz]

American beer is like making love in a canoe... Fucking close to water.. ;)

[GunsOfThePhoenix]

@GiggleGuyz That's why you can drink gallons of it and stay sober. A lot of us drink imported beer anyways :P

[GiggleGuyz]

@GunsOfThePhoenix

Got'cha! :D

[str8out]

LMFAO! F*ck Jackass the movie, this totally owns it!!!

[str8out]

3:06

[slickstrings]

one of my teachers at school got shot in the stomach when they were out camping. Lit up a camp fire previously used by some hunders. BANG. hospital. reach in and pull out a .22 That would suck.

[trivlock]

bad idea to waste beer at all

[jawbone83]

only you can prevent bomb range fires

[AHGlasher]

In the slo-mo I hit the pause and play to slide show the vid and watched how the canister had burst with a high velocity release of gas before the visual of beer bursting out. The better part of it I thought.

[K0E1N0]

"Talk about a beer shooter" haa

[druskov]

blah i hate broken video links

[WNxAtlas]

Got to love these guys... But at the ending, hot chocolate and marshmallows? Only an american would drink that LOL.

[JamesSchultz241]

That is so wrong to wast beer like that :.(

[GhostInTheShell29]

In iraq all our garbage was burned, well when it was time to pull out, everyone was getting rid of cans of bug spray shaving cream, air duster, you name it, and it all had to be burned. The fun part was you know theres explosives in the fire, but you still gotta get close enough to throw more onto the fire. Place sounded like a warzone.

[mkayontour]

you can make a rocket with the last one

[Fahrvergnugen]

"not an un-dangerous thing to do"

"Wow! It stayed in frame!"

I love the stuff Adam says. I just get the hugest kick out of his quips.

[junkb0x99]

What exactly is J. D. against? Dumping out the beer, or throwing the keg on the fire?

Jamie: "Talk about a beer shooter."

[megafeltch]

becks beer and james boags are probably my favourites.... toohey's isn't bad either. xxxx is good too. god i love beer. but VB is crap.

[MegaStupidDude]

i heart beer

[randomvideowatcher]

Isn't that what they call alcohol abuse?

[xsnakemandougx]

i threw a old tan spray bottle ina fire... it shot across the yard and hit dad in the ass XD

[kogathejuggalo]

i have thrown aerosol cans into a fire, but it was smaller then the fire here, and the cans were almost empty, it just blew the top off of them (note: i had a large wooden shield [ about as tall as the the panes of bulletproof glass, but almost twice as wide]) either way it was awesome, but something i probibly wont do again

[Darkschneyder]

noooo the bear

[Hogasofa]

ha I like savages suit

[algaretozky]

they shoulda laid that keg on it's side

[jas16899]

Don't waste beer in America when there are sober children in China who would love to have it.

[IllyaItaCarole]

You gotta love the flamming aerosol can tornado.

[snogluver]

Why do people say "that's a waste of beer." It is not like it is the last keg of beer on the planet.

[dokot09]

thats a wast of beer

[tye62538]

American beer is chilled to just above freezing so it will numb your taste buds, thus masking the lack of flavor. Just felt it was necessary to clear that up. (I'm American btw)

[strilight]

I'd be pissed if they threw in whiskey. But that's why they used cheap beer.

[xayel]

How did they not bring up that the hot beer steam will probably melt your skin off?

[paul6t4]

If you really want to see an aerosol go off, try a full can of CRC or RP7. they go off with a huge fireball n I have seen them leave a 12 inch crater!!!!

[kokosDNA]

it's raining beer

[vacklinge]

I love Adams imitations

[llamalover02]

what episode is this???

[kwennlim]

they should do an episode on ET aliens ufo's myth or fact!

[hees23]

3:00 see this Adam's tummy is huge

[Titleification]

i got caugt doing this at camp

[ryan13knapp]

ahahahahahhahaah they A. wasted all the beer and B. only threw it on almost empty bc they couldn't lift it.

[fsxflyboy]

Well you wouldn't want a warm beer would you!!!

[ImEuanAndIGotsSkeelz]

i got a little scar on the back of my calf cos when i was camping we were drunk and my friend thought it would be funny to put a deoderant can in the fire without telling anyone and when it went off i was standing right next to it, was like 14 at the time, crapped myself

[GunsOfThePhoenix]

@ImEuanAndIGotsSkeelz I was camping and two of my friends were drunk and they threw an old disposable butane canister onto the fire, no one was hurt though, and a pretty damn loud explosion. 

[855h0le]

I know someone who was almost killed when a paint can's bottom ejected from the hot can (From a camp fire). It went through a tent, someones jacket and just under someones eyes! It happened VERY fast and I dont know how it did all of that under 2 seconds...But it did...

[CassieTheHedgeFox]

Beer is bad for you. It makes you become drunk and do horrible things like rape and accidents. Also itruins your health. GO MYTHBUSTERS FOR USING A HORRIBLE DRUG-LIKE DRINK!

[SniperViper1000]

Did you know a 250ml cup of beer every two days is heathly for you. You stupid dumbass.

[delmarian]

There is a special place in Hell reserved for people who waste good Beer. But on this occasion, I think it was a worthy sacrifice to the Beer gods. Good vid thanks for posting!

[Metadragon142]

@delmarian Don't you mean a special place in hell for people this stupid?

[cabbievonbump]

@delmarian Yes, There Is.

It Is Called, . .

UTAH!

[KamiKazeroK]

Good riddens, beer taste like crap.

[masterofvideogames08]

drink more of it and you will love it

[laktosmiffo]

a HUGE fucking waste of delicious beer.. :(

[Diss911]

Do you know what also explode with a great boom, batteries. Thrown a few to a camp fire and the explosion sound exactly like machine gun fire.

[gecko1986]

i love mythbusters! and i hope the beer rests in peace..

[zachman0808]

wasting all that beer :(

[FORTY848]

ive thrown a deodorant can on a fire once, that was cool, waiting for about five minutes all of a sudden i hear a whistling, i yell run and BOOM that was cool

[Gwunty]

And that's why no one likes warm beer.

[strilight]

They should've poured beer on the fire and seen what would've happened...If they where wasting whiskey or scotch I might've complained but beer? Nope.

[JJincorp]

just rember, don't throw a whole trash bag full of hair spray into a fire by accident and then set close to it lol

[BlakeMason2]

As dave would say, this video features alcohol abuse!!!! the alcohol on the ground was abused.

[JJincorp]

LOL, awsome

[DeltaPhi79]

They were joking when they said that Jamie wouldn't have wasted it in the '20s right? lol because the last I knew, Jamie was 53.

[ceskazbrojovka17HMR]

he means when he was age 20s dipshit

[jwoelmer2]

@DeltaPhi79 They always joke about Jamie being ancient. It's pretty normal actually.

[rossjnd]

Id tap that beer keg

[kegmonkey]

Beer doesn't taste that great anyways. I'd complain if they were wasting scotch though.

[Konsolenrocker08]

:´( RIP, Beer keg, you were still so young

:´(

[lyokofans]

Alcohol abuse! That's horrible!

[RunitePikachu]

I once took a half-full cigarette lighter and smashed it with a hammer. It blew up and scared the living shit out of me.

[inuismyfav]

@RunitePikachu

i did taht once but i threw a full one on the ground as hard as i could it blew up and hit my leg

[ellcheeso]

i did that

'twas funny

[damonH24]

Zomg did they just dump that beer out =O

[DeltaPhi79]

Yes they dumped it out because they're not alcoholics and it's common sense.

[damonH24]

I was joking...

[marcoloco21]

Its like everybody shouting DON"T WASTE THE FUCKIN BEER, GIMME SOME! lol

[mlim23]

INhalents are BAD for you

[forealslayer]

less than 2 hours ago i put a half full hinakin keg in a fire and thought that the little plastic valve would melt before it blew the fuck up and it toke me an hour to stop laughing and i did not even git to drink any of it

[TheMikey4201]

Nooo!!! all that beer... wasted like the guys who made this a myth... even better is butane gas refill... awsome idea, but what a waste of beer

[Bottleshooter8]

What don't they waste? lol

[DeltaPhi79]

What they didn't waste was the beer lol because no one needs it.

[vardamin]

I went to junior high school with a guy who died in a keg explosion. It was an empty keg.

[esmithmaria]

i threw an "empty" lighter into a camp fire. turned out it wasnt empty. the fucker shot way the hell into the air

[GavinJLang]

I threw some new AA batteries on my campfire this summer. It took a while and then it blew up, it was a LOT bigger than I thought it would be.

[Nelsonwmj]

LOL try this. I put a full lighter on the ground and stamped on it so hard that it exploded under my feet... scary... but haha I am still walking tall...

[johnsgadgets]

NOOOOOOOOOOO,,,alcohol abuse to the max!!!!!

[TagaSeguchi]

The bomb suit looks like a fat Master Chief from Halo...

[missan1]

been there done that

[Grenadier1944]

And burnt the t-shirt?

[JWLuke787]

American beer tastes like water...

[kagezara]

@JWLuke787 nay, our water tastes like beer!!!

[PhattyMo]

@JWLuke787 Yea,crap like Budweiser,Coors,etc. are pisswater.. We've got some killer microbrews though.

At least we drink it cold. Warm beer is horrible! :-p

[MrTigerniger]

@JWLuke787 actually its nothing compared to water



[00THOMPSON00]

@JWLuke787 agreed drink canadian

[REBELMEDIAVIDEOS]

@JWLuke787

We just can't seem to do anything right can we?

[robert7854]

:( they could have invited me to take care of the excess beer

[dimelives1]

i love how 85% of the comments on here are about the poor wasted beer lol... tells you something bout our society, doesnt it? xD

[Myfaceisonfirenow]

@dimelives1 But its american beer soooo...... Its not a waste.

[alecbh13]

@dimelives1 I'm more upset about the wasted ammo. :(

[acethedisturbed]

@alecbh13 Yeah really! .50 BMG is like $4 a round!

[Ranger4321]

@dimelives1 yes it does, it tells us that we like our beer.

[catpee3000]

i like how even the cop seems really disappointed that they're wasting beer!

[Skulblaka1987]

cheap beer or not, just dumping the beer onto the ground, thats blasphemous!!!!

[kouga265]

lol! alsome :)

[digimaks]

Calm down , peeps! They chose the most cehapest beer to waist. They should of invited us to help them clear the keg though))))

[DevilMayAsian]

3:03

[jokerscommander]

NOOOO THE BEEEEERRR!!!!!! =(

[frena323]

soo sad, and furious >:(

[LiquidZ2k]

I think they completely misjudged all the campfire myths. All you need is something hitting you fast enough and in the right spot to take you out.

[KTownEgghead]

Oh my God all the wasted beer D:

[OraculusMaximus]

I am all for experimentation. But wasting perfectly good beer? That is too much! Mythbusters, you crossed the line with this!

[zygas25]

at least use the cheap stuff like corona or something

[Skulblaka1987]

such a waste of beer

[surlybikes13]

hope that was at least shitty beer

[DeltaPhi79]

Woulda been nice for the WHOLE keg.

[UltimateLifeformRB]

Beer and explosions... sounds fun!

[daalsij]

OMG. THEY wAASTEd IT

[littlegrabbiZZ9PZA]

We have a saying in German: "Wer Bier verschenkt wird aufgehängt!".

Translation:

"He who wastes beer is hanged."

Luckily for the Mythbusters, we can waive this due to "sheer awesome".

[dchan19362]

iMO, BEST EXPLOSION EVER on Mythbusters:

1. Water Boiler

2. Cement Truck

3. Beer Keg

[digimaks]

They are not in germany anyway ))))

[zeldagtamarioman11]

they have the best jobs in the world

[Madmachine73]

What you throw depends on , what it is, how thick the steel is, how much force does it blow up with, and least but not last how it blows up (in an explosion or like a rocket flying off).

If bits of the steel plate DOES rip off of the full body, then we have to see if it's still lethal. Because the force of riping it off needs alot of power.
