TUNGSTEN RING VS. SLEDGEHAMMER

[TexasNationalist]

Use an anvil and then show us. There's too much give between the soft wood, grass, and ground. It's like a vehicle suspention.

[sleepingeye]

You should have used an anvil.

[seamyeyes]

amazing editing skills, dude.

[MysteryBowl]

I think you'd get the same result for this test if you used copper; most of the energy is being transferred through the ring into the relatively soft wood. Try this on a steel block and I bet you get a different result.

[sleepingeye]

@MysteryBowl

Yeah on steel you would at least get a little scratch i think.

[tomrlutong]

I have a tungsten wedding band, and it's awsome, just be aware that there's no reason to pay more than $10 - $20 for one. Look on Amazon, they're really cheap. Most jewlers mark these things up to 10x or 20x their true price!

[deadfoxcell]

tungsten is harder then titanium btw ... titanium is regarded as one of the hardest " LIGHTEST " metals ever created tungsten is just to heavy but it density shows that not only is it heavy but extremely well .. i think u got the point in this video

[bluehazzy]

lay it on end and put it on concrete then we might see some action

[raptorcommander]

cute, but try that again and place the ring up on it's end and put the board on pavement, not soil that will absorb the shock.

[jlasud]

Certainly lasts longer than marriages in the western world...

[pacloro]

why didnt he put the ring facing up? gay

[dijhili]

Try dropping it on a hard surface......BREAK! Tungsten is VERY BRITTLE and can easily break from a hammer.....on a hard surface!

[zooders]

take it off the wood and put the ring on a harder surface

[Bestel1090]

This seems like an add tungsten rings break easy if ur trying to break it...

[BastermaBreath420]

tungsten is really tough but if you hit it hard enough it will break....your ring would have broke it you placed it upright as opposed to flat.

[0001Stealth]

try putting it between the sledgehammer and a harder surface than wood like steel or rock. and hit more than once

[1BustedMyth]

Yup!, gee I wonder if this is an add!, you want to impress, use an anvil under it!

[a10fjet]

might as well put it on a metal board and hit it with a wooden hammer, thats all you did here

[brianmef]

Use something hard like concrete or metal instead of wood and see if it damages it or not.

[kragier]

You know, I would imagine that hitting your ring with a sledgehammer voids the warranty....

Improper use of anything voids a warranty, they only apply when you use it properly. If I get a 3 year warranty on an XBox and smash it with a pickaxe, I'm not getting a replacement because that isn't the intended use.

My point: put it on something solid and standing on the outside and smash it with the sledgehammer. If it breaks, its probably too bad :3.

Why did I tell you this? I'm bored....

[Bjo15]

do that again but with a metal surface XD

[ruxblue]

WOW! DUDE!

I can't believe it... wood is soft. Who could have imagined. Thanks for answering this age old question.

[aj3ster]

turn it the other way and it will break : )

[nostanova]

chuck norris could crush that with his pinkie

[vivitar45]

use vice grips will destroy it

[OtagoMark]

you didn't hit it with a sledge hammer.. you hit it with some paper and thin wood on soft earth lol... stick the ring on an anvil and whack it

[elliotoblio]

you big homos, stop holding hands & f@ckin smash that baby, at least 5 good swings would of been satisfying to watch, full force swings,

[MTHKITEBOARDS]

LOL my grandma can hit it harder than that! put it on some cement and do the same thing.

[bek12]

Neat, but... sounds like an advertisement.

[bendvis]

Stand that ring on it's end, and it would shatter under that impact.

[windson7]

the material of those rings is Chuck Norris's toenails. yeah he is that powerful

[jjlwis]

that can't be good for you....

[bendvis]

@jjlwis Tungsten is actually completely hypoallergenic. I've worn one for 3 years with no ill effects.

[wildcaterpieappeared]

the ring cannot be destroyed by any craft we here posses the ring was

made in the fires of mount doom only there can it be unmade

[HakerzTM]

Wow! "It's In The Wood"!

[Gmc42082]

i bet i can destroy it!

[supruzr]

Reasons why it didn't break:

You set it flat.

You set it on wood, which absorbs the shock.

You set the wood on grass, which absorbs the shock.

If you want to break the ring, it's pretty easy. Stand it up sideways on a solid foundation like concrete, and then return to Mr. Sledgehammer. It'll shatter into pieces rather than bend.

[rahmanroni]

@supruzr Yeah, its like the strongest metal, but its not very flexible. I think they make amputation equipments with it cause it can easily cut through bone.

[magicalpoop]

you can break a tungsten ring by taking a vice grip and placing pressure on it.

You apply the pressure in a "closing" direction, as if you wanted to shape the inner circle into an oval.

If these guys had placed the ring sitting up right , they could have broken it.

[tapout320]

@HolyNIghtmare11 try throwing it on cement and see how many pieces of tungsten ring you have

[tapout320]

put it on a SLAB OF STEEL,NOT A PIECE OF WET WOOD and let someone who benches more than 100 lbs take a whack at it

[c0ldelement]

why the fuck would u use a soft back material such as wood to test it... weak test apparently u all smoked too much pot..

[djson1]

Well, first of all, I'm sure this is a promo for that website..because you don't need to go there for tungsten rings (and he keeps repeating the url)...but secondly, obviously it won't break as it's on grass. Tungsten is very strong...so hard that it's actually brittle. If there is any line on the tungsten (like a design or bezel), and you hit it with a hammer, it will shatter.

[Taz0161]

You don't necessarily need more powerful tools , just a more solid foundation. The wood absourbs the shock. Just for shits and giggles I took one of my tungsten rings and placed it on a anvil. Just a few effortless wacks with a regular carpenters hammer and the ring shattered into a million pieces. But then again to agree with you , most of the tests they put them through is to simulate normal wear. What wouldn't get damaged between a hammer and an anvil LOL.

[shroomy115]

Like others said, placing the ring on a piece of wood and hitting it with a sledgehammer is the same thing as putting it on a sledgehammer and hitting it with a piece of wood. This isn't "tungsten ring vs. sledgehammer", it's "tungsten ring vs. wood."

[PlatesManUK]

Do the test with the ring on concrete or steel, you pussy!!!

[ptatohed]

Lame!

[resdudeornardude]

Should have stood it up on its side, and if you miss, reset it. It will do more damage then it sitting flat, also, do it on concrete.

[thoughtwavetech]

FOR TEH LULZ!

[Googs5]

Nothing can destroy the One Ring to Rule them All. (cept mordor)

[MegaMikeCrazy]

LMAO!



[huntr4lfe]

Nothing is indestructable, it may be hard, but it is brittle, one hit between two hard objects and it will shatter. Or use a file with a hardness above 8 and it will scratch it.

[vidiot67]

idiots. why whould you put the ring on wood.

do it again on a large rock or a piece of cement or the fucking sidewalk.

[cybertron71289]

Because they're probably filming this to endorse the site that sells them

[ironDsteele]

Put it on a block of cement and hit it then see what happens.

[USZ71]

hows about puttin it on say, a cast iron surface. Instead of a soft surface, like wood, that gives way to the metal. You coulda done that with a titanium or possibly a silver ring with the same outcome. Gold woulda been destroyed tho. Tungsten is very strong, but not indestructable.

[antioxcidity]

LOL THIS IS GAY you should have hammered it on a pickle next time get some 3ft bolt cutters and see if it breaks

[sooev]

who needs super tuff rings ?

this is stupid, unless ring includes super powers:-)

[DClifeMagazine]

Super Tuff-guys!!

lol

[marek0086]

u might as well have placed the ring on a block off CHEESE and hit it with a hammer!

Idiots!

[DClifeMagazine]

Super Tuff-guys!!

lol

[SPARTANA110]

@sooev It's funny how the military ain't replacing their metal with Tungsten -_-

[deadfoxcell]

@SPARTANA110 it is literally just to heavy it would be like making a aircraft out of lead ... tungsten is just to heavy

[davidfgranger]

@sooev Sauron

[silentbob696969]

I approve of this scientific analysis. Huzzah!

[Krisspychiken]

yeah that wood really doesnt absorb the impact.. how bout you turn the ring sideways and hammer it on concrete... tungsten is tough and like concrete its not flexible... a small hammer would be suffice to do the job

[IcanCuNowcanUCme]

That was an idiotic analysis.

[selcoweld]

nice commercial for your website

[Vnix]

dats a nice ring brah

[RebeLfARmeR]

Lol, take it to Mordor indeed, that'll kill it!

If you want to break it, stand it at 90º to how it was in this vid and hit it again, the thing will shatter easily. Like glass - very VERY hard, yet also extremely brittle.

[samuraijackson09]

aint tungsten carbide that stuff they use to reinforce tanks

[TheElwall]

Yeah, put it on an anvil then smash it with a sledge hammer, get a pro to do it and i guarantee it will break!!!

[Saphothere]

TAKE IT TO MORDOR!

[owengoslin101]

@Saphothere classic

[TheCrazyFinn]

Try using an anvil...

[Nohka]

Yeah, because this test failed instantly...

[ThyRampage]

You could easily break that on a hard surface, like concrete, for example.

[1Sh0t1K1llSNipEr4Evr]

umm no tungsten is pretty much the hardest metal on earth YOU CAN BREAK IT unless you use a 6 TON press maybe that would work

[dragonxlove]

diamond is actually the hardest natural metal known to man diamond nanorods are the hardest substance(also metal) ever known to man

[1Sh0t1K1llSNipEr4Evr]

Ok since when is Diamond a metal? Id like to meet the guy who told you that...

ps. (Diamond is pure carbon) DUMBASS

[dragonxlove]

yea i learned it from GOOGLE here these are the keywords i typed in u try it and see if u get sumthing different (hardest metal known to man)

[1Sh0t1K1llSNipEr4Evr]

HAHA OK the first thing that came up was the UNcyclopedia, and if you read it all they make up a bunch of crap. AND thats the only website i saw that said diamond is a metal.

[dragonxlove]

hey a guy can't tell a joke?

[TheCrazyFinn]

You obviously can't! =D

But hey, Merry Christmas!

[dragonxlove]

merry christmasto ya too man

[jasonwinback]

i could break but you wont be able to scratch it, exept if you scratch it with a diamond

[lex0919]

Yo this is tite man haha imma go check that out and try it for myself. Thanks for the clip!!!

[clione9]

wow!never seen tungstone ring in my life but this is amazing!!I like that couple ring too^)^ where can I get that?

[ingodsara]

i can't believe this is real

this ring is strong as hell!!

and i like the simple design too__*

it's hot!!!

[ingodsara]

i can't believe this is real

this ring is strong as hell!!

and i like the simple design too__*

it's hot!!!

[jmxbbiddagi]

wow!! i have one my self but never tried that~ thanks for the clip!!

[youngaepaz]

OHH Shit~ This is tight clip.. Is this foreal? Thats some strong ring man.. haha

[jioogae1404]

Is this real?? If it is, i'm definitely getting it. So it doesn't make any kind of scratches? I recently bought a ring for my bf, but the color is already fading out.
