How It's Made: Toothpicks

[KillWithFire12]

The narrator sounds like David Schwimmer (Ross from Friends)

[page358]

they didnt show how they made them pointy

[HughMungoose]

Somewhat disappointed. Was expecting to see a whole tree go on a lathe to make 1 toothpick.

[keebordcowboy]

really nice vid.

[classicsonic91]

Hey Plank, ever take a tour of a toothpick factory?

~Eddy from Ed, Edd, n Eddy.

[kzd209]

they should have a "How its Made- Humans"....

[gredangeo]

I thought each log made one toothpick.

Simpsons shown that one tree makes a bowling pin. :)

[webpavulon]

Ohh fuck. He looks like "Mohad the rapist" :/

[gymkhanadog]

Anyone else like the random steak knife at 5:33 holding together some piece of machinery? Haha. I love when people do stuff to just make it work.

[MrRevolutionCOD]

5:33 Random knife?

[PakaBubi]

[CondemnedPatriot]

I iwhs I knew this guy In real life so i could tell him i dfont like him and hurt his feelings

[Spredzable]

"Where do you work?"

"Oh i work in a FUCKING TOOTHPICK FACTORY"

[atomicnortherner]

I think he looks like an "adult film" actor!

[dispatcher7007]

And that log is then carved down to a toothpick... finished :)

[ImLegend932]

[Urgoth40]

Why is there Jennifer Aniston on the side? Oh wait...

[MichaelCGindi]

Jim carrey is so have to imitate this guy..

[iviess]

RockRocky09, different people have different accents...

[RockRocky09]

praw-cess not proh-cess

[DanThrustPC]

@RockRocky09

He says it correctly for everyone in the rest of the world. For us, it's proh-cess, not PRAWWSESS like most americans would say.

Search for "wikitionary process" in google.

[2bsure]

@RockRocky09 we say it like proh-cess here in England, you must be from the US then. Like Yanks saying "mobel phone", or "what aver" or mom. We don't correct you as we know what you are saying. Just remember where the langauage came from in the first place.

[Chloroformator]

Why am I watching this...

[RYDERkN]

5:33 there is a kitchen knife

[choochinbigtime420]

they look life good birch logs, should be using cap logs

[TheMrFlapy]

they don't clean them?? :/

[elemineseslapolla]

@TheMrFlapy I think 121 °C is enough to kill bacteria

[MackB55]

i'm so glad they don't have this stupid announcer anymore -.-

[TheArgenis1]

Imagine how many splinters they must get

[zanuha]

How u mad?

[dreydman1]

anyone notice that knife sticking out from the machine at 5:32 ??

[zanuha]

@dreydman1

I was just going to comment on that :3

[pyrobombs]

I smell porn music...

[pandamacaroons]

heheh.. machines.. since when am i left? :]

[zekonja24]

Some people use them to pick their teeth from food they eat , lool

[MegaPiety]

Hate how he says "process"

[Noemie2018]

2:16 thats awesome

[lameristotel]

I once watched a cartoon were they used a whole tree for just one toothpick. If anyone can remember what that cartoon was wins the internet!

[toblertwo]

@lameristotel was it about some chipmunks that sneaked into a vegetable factory?

[lameristotel]

@toblertwo Maybe. I think it was one of these old Disney or looney tunes in color films where everything starts working and a narrator explains some story :D and the camera follows everywere lol i was a little kid when i watched it. But definitely a factory!

[ModelTXInfAmY]

@lameristotel I don't remember that but I remember a simpsons episode which showed single bowling pins being made out of a whole tree.

[Tron9222]

@ModelTXInfAmY thats the first thing I thought of when I saw the link to this video, haha, great minds!

[uching]

i felt instant dislike for that guy.... is it wrong that i wanna punch him in the face.

[Serostern]

@uching If he was black I'd join the KKK.

[bignoooooob]

@uching its not wrong i feel like punching him too

[A1234567890J1]

@uching i liked the britch robot voiced announcer u never saw instead

[evilrobotstudios]

@uching no, because i feel like slapping you across the profile picture.

[Walkbass]

@uching

Nop :D

i have seen every How it's made. and he is the most annoying presenter

[MsMoonDragoon]

not only do they get payed alot, theres free splinters!

[liarXliar1]

...just to clean our teeth o.o

[WCherokeeW]

so this means trees ARE cut down JUST to make toothpicks to be used a few seconds and thrown away. i figured this was the case years ago. for 7 years now i've used an ear spoon/toothpick combo i forged from a lil strip of hi carbon steel. i haven't used a toothpick or q-tip in that time. i will not support these kinds of destruction of the earth for money. i think the ear spoon should be brought back. it ws used for centuries before toothpicks and q-tips were invented.

[LoyalistViral]

Anyone else annoyed by the dudes voice?

[passivepower]

The Simpsons

[alexurdo007]

what is that knife for!??? O_O 5:30

[MovieTrim]

Such a waste....

[Cream137]

"The machine is calibrated precisely to include 650"

Then you see toothpicks fall off boxes as they're being closed

[Beenius]

@Cream137 I'm going to manually count my next toothpick box! Make sure they didn't rip me off!

[boravw1]

how many toothpicks per 1 log?

[capps4242]

When I was a little kid, i thought that one huge tree was carved down to make only one toothpick. XD

[boravw1]

@capps4242 using a pencil sharperner... my dad still thinks that happens haha

[aqouby]

I was really hoping to see 1 tree = 1 toothpick.

[MegaH4tt0rih4nz0]

@aqouby yeh seen it on cartoon ? :D

[sisseeboy]

@aqouby thats what i was waiting for... like the simpsons lol

[aqouby]

@sisseeboy lol, exactly

[jcudal32]

@aqouby LOL that's like the most popular joke regarding toothpicks. LOL funny how someone said it LOL. I too would have loved to seen it.

[watininx]

random knife? @ 5:31

[GODLOVEEESYOU]

Wow I never knew there were so many processes ! 2:55 giant pasta lol. Not again Youtube changed its layout. D:

[hpmarocsvp]

All this work for TOOTHPICKS...

[Erectoralporicy]

I was hoping dude would give the average number of toothpicks per log.

[burnInHellGZLolz]

I want a fiber producing goat....

[hoottasshell]

WOW, i never thought there would be an episode for toothpicks...lol they look so damn simple :P

[albeanmagz19]

wow pasta

[crashpedo]

Hey.. its Ross from friends!!!!

[Quialal]

I'm so glad they got rid of this host. He is horrid. I love the knife as a screw in the machine at about 5:35.

[SuperGoodie101]

I feel so proud to be canadian " Air Canada"

[adisharr]

I would liken a hand-job from that women to being romantic with a cheese grater.

[TheJuli1241]

wow

[bisnonnocanapa]

wow what a honor...big jim in person is conducting

[mousegal1]

i wonder how many splinters they get there per day...

[TuviaGering]

..."and then they let dustin hoffman count the toothpicks"

ehh, what?!

[MsMysticworld]

I prefer bamboo toothpicks

[charkee167]

do we actually need 8000 tooth picks per minute?

[Zachary1981]

OMG! Tooth picks are made from logs!!!

[bbjagaa]

1:29 If you want to skip the BS

[SuperDeinVadda]

what teh machine rapes 200 in a minute?

[F0nkyNinja]

In 5:30 in he says it handles 1500 toothpicks an hour, then he says it handles 747,500 every hour?

[crosbykillerii]

@F0nkyNinja

listen again, then use some math.. :)

[jojam188]

@F0nkyNinja 1050 BOXES per hour

[xisawsm]

i just have to know how toothpicks are made

[xeraldine]

How It's Made shows you that machines are replacing humans.

[fpvgtking]

i hate those type of tooth picks!

[sorchah]

Fifteen people have poor periodontal hygiene.

[faidhen31]

i wonder how many toothpicks are wasted during the process..hmhm..

[Alikkatz]

@ 5:34 a toothpick fell out someones gonna get 649 toothpicks :<

[Gunner3210]

There is this much demand for toothpicks?

[WILLFILL88]

why did i watch this...

[imthekashmeister]

it starts at 1:37

[Neueregel]

amazing

[bonsai108]

Where's the cartoon where they mill down one giant sequoia to make a toothpick?

[terry81]

im no longer using wooden toothpicks cos its unhygiene.

[Ivan992bug]

So 14 peoples don˙t using toothpicks, I don˙t get it how can someone dislike something on how it˙s made when theath is a normal proces of manufacturing.

[wolfalb]

05:29 there's a knife out there looool.

[wolfmang22]

Goodkarma33 your crazy if you actually did that. DarthHater100 I also noticed the spelling typo but didn't notice the missing "t" until this episode. And did anybody notice the knife at the packaging section?

[kanga1234567]

I didn't realise there was such a worldwide demand for toothpicks!

[DarthHater100]

anyone notice that in the opening titles it says "H-O-W  I M-A-D"

[KawaiiGaIx]

@DarthHater100 for troll reasons, too bad they dint put "U-M-A-D?"

[UnderlinedDesigns]

@DarthHater100 and you have 69 likes ;)

[ONITOmusic]

@DarthHater100 YES! I noticed that so long ago! :D

I'm not crazy!

[Kcducttaper1]

Skip to 1:28

[goodkarma33]

650 per box my ass! I counted a new box of toothpicks, and it only had 649 in it.

[Cheisu7]

How do they make the toothpicks sharp? o.0

[jaidee76]

@Cheisu7 Yea, these are the "non sharpened" ones. I was curious to watch them sharpened too. Funny what you watch when you have nothing in particular to do.

[Saxomax1]

bitchstolemyspacebar

[Mk22HushPuppy]

"the packager is calibrated to package 650 toothpicks per container" while loose toothpicks are flying all over the place.

[hightechjunkieva]

The host is a closet gay...lol.

[mrpig2u]

@hightechjunkieva

closeted means everybody knows, except him. 

[sarica10]

right now they are soft, they have to get harder after you blow them dry......

[903harman]

those are the shitty toothpicks that dont have the rounded tip.

[ClankyRochet]

In Russia one tree make one toothpick.

[TheWorldGatekeeper]

2:02 i thought that big piece of wood will make just one toothpick 

[xenocider64]

if kevlar comes from sheep, why aren't sheep bulletproof?

[djplace16]

@cinder5832 thats called black man move, gettto up in da toothpick hood 

[loardofthegames]

wow how its made was different back then

[codenamecody]

what about the round kind?

[DATWEIRDGUY1]

i use my toothpicks to stab prison guards

[Wrightman3008]

None of you can tell me you weren't disappointed to see that one toothpick isn't made of one entire tree. Damn you, Bugs Bunny and Tweety show! Acme lied to us!

[JoseDKira11]

@Bf4P shame you cant think of good comebacks poor troll haha dont waste my time XD

[mandababble]

so wasteful

[Animaumbra]

@mandababble Except it's not. They use a very small amount of logs (did you see how many there were at the beginning?) and are extremely efficient at it.

[LeafMaster7665]

@cinder5832 if u were listening he said knifes are placed here or there to cut the strips of wood

[jordanpasek]

@LeafMaster7665 Incorrect. Those are different blades.

[JoseDKira11]

@Bf4P wow 3 billion sperm and your the one that got through...shame

[ohadbas]

so what sharpens them?

[kickballer3]

Is it just me, or is this show lame for Discovery Channel?

[marcoso94]

@kickballer3 No where near lame, this show is awesome.

[andrew101678]

there not sharpened :(

[Jamonkatrunk]

paper cuts

[sammieapple]

Host = Napoleon Dynamite

[budzag]

Fukn get on with the fukin program so much bullshit u have 2 watch before they get 2 the point.

[HarrisonPlaysCoD]

Holy shit! It's Bruce Almighty!

[nikogior]

we destroy the forests just to pick our teeths?!?! LOL! look what we've become!!

[Serostern]

@nikogior One log makes what, five and a half billion toothpicks...

[transdrole]

This guy isn't a good narrator

[01musicbabe]

a waste of logs so that people can pick out the dirt in their nasty neeth. thats what a toothbrush is for :/

[stig422]

on the simpsons 1 log equals 1 toothpick

[Amunication]

what was that about goats?

[Slic3R1]

thumbs up if you saw the knife

[DEATHHUNTER1232I]

@Slic3R1 5:32

[Puppyliciouscute]

Why is there a knife at 5:33 ?

[mutetus]

Go Wildcats!

[mississsippistar]

wonder how many spliters they get a day

[Fiifufu]

BULLETPROOF VESTS FROM GOATS OMG!!!!

[MrKakapoopoo]

@shadowandnight if you watched the video not even 1 tree creates more then 8,000 toothpicks fucking retard.

[shadowandnight]

[kakakarlyn]

[bimboandproud]
