Atom Smasher

[starofcctv94]

The whole black hole thing never made any sence to any one who knew what they actually are. Becoming a black hole does not increase its gravity! it only allows you to get closer to the center where the gravity is smaller. so if the sun turned into a black hole now the earth would carry on orbiting as usual.

[SirezX]

@starofcctv94

HIGHLY doubtful considering that a prerequisite for a black hole to form is a super nova...or an insane loss off mass over an insanely short amount of time

[pauliexcluded1]

That number, FYI, is just made up.

[SuperRiguy]

Its funny cuzz Neutron stars are neutron star

[Robubbabub]

@profsat5

Nope, it was 50 million to the first.

[Luis568369]

I didnt say "see the black hole" i said found and i know this since light canot escape the black hole and it is proof because if it was just something massive like a super red giant we would be able to actualy see it unlike a black hole that any light would just be absorved

[Luis568369]

Hes stupid the hubble telescope found a black hole

[mechaghostman2]

@Luis568369

He was JOKING!!!!!!!!

[dullblades]

@Luis568369 you can't actually see the black hole, dolt. If anything, the telescope found an accretion disk, a swirling x-ray-emitting frenzy of superheated gases, which is generally thought to be a good indicator of a black hole. it's not conclusive proof, though it does show us that there's something really heavy in the vicinity.

[91nikolai91]

Was I the only one that realized he said LCH? :p 1:56 ...

[pcdsgh]

black holes aren't theoretical -_-

you said a lot of funny stuff about them, in a bad way. black holes aren't dark matter by definition. and nobody's proven it otherwise yet.

[tgoyer]

Yahtzee! Haha!

[twink82294]

love the laugh at :57 lol



[MrJesusisawesome]

Holy Shit! 1 in 50 million, wow that is really high. Not Kidding.

[profsat5]

@MrJesusisawesome It's 50 million to the ninth.As usual the guy is lying or don't know the facts.

[SpanishBroomaker]

Black Mesa anyone? 0_o

[SpideysEvilTwin]

I like a lot of your videos but I don't think you understand current scientific theory

[hosenOne]

10 trillion volts huh? thats how much energy it takes to create a warp drive :)

[LilDrummerBoy74]

Did you just say you don't believe in black holes? Cause I'm pretty sure it's not so theoretical anymore.

[Darkwolf198821]

Well 2012 is coming.

[Zappyguy111]

If microblack holes destroyed the Earth, we'd be dead already. Our outer atmosphere produces vast quantities of microblack holes all the time due to it's interaction with radiation from the cosmos and our atmosphere.

So meh.

[hillbillyjo]

Lolled at equals D

[LostDreamStolenNight]

You know what really annoys me is when you say to someone "How are you today?" (strictly out of courtesy) and then they proceed to tell you there entire miserable life story... I get that at work a lot..

[Azurewrath232]

@LostDreamStolenNight Throw them off next time ask them 'how aren't you today" see what happens dude but i gotta warn ya some people cant take the overload takes them a second to catch it.

[LostDreamStolenNight]

@Azurewrath232 Hahaha what a great Idea :P I am so gonna try that =P thanks for the tip

[pkmnfan1000]

the complete mass of the earth would have to be compressed to the size of a marble to be a black hole. and the event horizon wouldnt even suck the light away that is being bounced off the moon. unless the theory that matter cannot be either created nor destroyed is wrong, which is a 99.99999999999999999%, we have nothing to worry about.

[MrBrendan111]

equals D hahah

[EdiciusWinter]

funny how atoms and molecules "smash" during a chemical reaction and no mini black holes yet.. still waiting so i can crawl/jump through that worm hole to land/fall in that white hole... if it doesn't kill me of course!

[thisismymoniker]

According to Wikipedia, "strangelets" are less likely to form in a high energy accelerator than a low energy accelerator, so the LHC presents less of a risk than its predecessors. The 1/50,000,000 figure is from Martin Rees...it's not the figure in general circulation which is "astronomically small" or similar, simply someone's opinion.

[thisismymoniker]

That was considerably better than the "darwinian design" video...you've restored my opinion of your scientific commentary somewhat. Time to examine some genomes now, and then, i hope, have the "oh so evolution really did happen" moment which inevitably happens to anyone that examines genomes.

[L4Wrs]

equals dee

[ummcake123]

in your face, darkmatter!

[sabiel888]

you guys are geniuses 

[Coombsdrew]

If the black hole was on a sub atomic level, wouldn't it only need a subatomic level of mass to equalize the gravity in-balance?

[LordOfTheGnus]

@Coombsdrew

I think you're asking whether a tiny black hole would exert strong gravity. You're right, it wouldn't. The fear is that

1. If the tiny black hole can exist

2. If it doesn't disappear

3. If its velocity is slow enough to keep it in the Earth

it could absorb the Earth to the point that it is a danger.

That said, the fear is ludicrous. No serious physicist is afraid of the LHC. If it could happen, the Sun would be looong gone. (The Sun collides energetic protons all the time.)

[stealthki11er0]

I disappeared 2 years ago and reappeared to watch and comment on this video

[marsunderscorefenix]

lch?

[trisnjok]

so.... did we die?

[bakkerrich1979]

1:56 the LCH...u meant LHC right?

[kf160k160]

ha ha ha....equals D

[julianbell90]

black hole you say? that would be one hell of a blowjob!

[paddytheduck]

I know a guy that works for Cern and he said most people have no idea how it works.

And i know somthing quite funny about the lhc but i don't know if i am rely ment to say it so i will not

[Computeproductions]

Get ready to suck.

[Bagadaboats]

equals D!! LOL its a smily face!

[svennen200]

hmm... Sweden - Switerland... is that like Austrailia - Austria?

[noobler9]

murphy, knowing scientists, they'll pick the most common time prediction of death of the universe/world and try to fire at that time XD

they love hilarious things like that

[diomedes39]

You don't know anything about physics; unless you learned more in two years . . . yeah.

[vaultofknowledge]

Richard Simmons naked

[MurphyMonster]

Yeah, dont fire it on Dec. 23, 2012. Cause if the world does come to an end, we know we didnt fuck ourselves

[SpudsBM]

i think they should fire it up exactly then to shove it in the faces of all the fear mongers and sheep

[mmmanny123]

u saw the worm hole over norway

[Lollingonyounub]

lolwat

[mmmanny123]

there was a spiral shaped light over norway

[racoonknux49]

DONT FIRE IT IN 2012!!!

[EliteGhost001]

@racoonknux49

I'd say plz do xD

[gorjesss001]

ong!!! was that camera guy laughing?

0:56

[russianbear0027]

the thing that stinks is that the electronics got damaged last time it was fired, and they've decided to stop using it's full potential until they've figured out a way to make it less delicate.

even at half power though, it's more powerful than any previous accelerator...

[clomo0809070604]

lets get rid of money all together

[kyofox010]

yahtsee

[kopli222]

YAHTZEE!!

[omegastar19]

Good vid :)

The "END OF THE WORLD" scenario was created by sensationalists who simply want attention and fame. The arguments they make are completely baseless and ungrounded. For example, the most popular argument "mini-black holes" is taken from a theory that goes on to state IN THE SAME THEORY that if those black hole are created, they would immediatly disappear without causing any harm.

You cant just take one part of a theory and ignore the rest of it.

[Chick6517]

haha I can't believe how cool that was. I really enjoyed it.Its amazing how clear the video is. Loved it!

[3gdosrsfs]

It says in Genesis, in the begining GOD created the Heavens and the Earth. That means it was all done....then it says the Earth was without form and void and the surface of the deep was dark. Before God put life on Earth it says that it 'was'...that means it was there...it had a surface. The sun and moon and stars were all in place in a week. If God did create us then this should not be suprising. that he can put us together in a week.

[3gdosrsfs]

Well put together vid. I personally think

this is an exercise in futility and a ton

of money wasted on what?

Ok so we figure out how to create a universe...We can't build one here.

Where does one propose to fit it?

In the begining God created the

heavens and the Earth.

Thre I just save you clowns another trillion

volts of electricity. Now...break this garbage heap down, sell it for scrap and feed the poor.

Let solve the real problems on this planet first.

[onlytag1way]

yea but the bible also says the planet is only a few thousand years old...let scientist do wat they do best...who knows wat theyll discover they might even find a renewable energy source...so id let them do their thing...science has a pretty good track record with solving problems...while religion hasnt really come up with anything that benefits humanity in a long long time...and dont get mad its true...religous donations vs polio vaccine

[3gdosrsfs]

Religion? Im not talking about religion here.

You cant fit God inside of religion. This

is probably why religion is so laughable.

God does not desire religion, ritual, sacrifice....He desires mercy...

feed the poor, heal the sick, father

the fatherless, shelter the homeless.

Doing what God wants has NEVER failed sociecty. I do not mean what releigion want, but what God wants.

You want to donate you hard earned money on nonsene, then be my guest.

I should not have to.

[derfos666]

Of course, the tiny problem there is defining what God wants. I mean, what if what you think god wants and what I think God wants are different? Who's right? Why?

It just seems easier to take God out of the picture, use logic, and then say that God likes/encourages logic, therefore he likes whatever conclusion you logically arrived to (like do not murder).

Whether god exists isn't the issue: It's whether there's a point to trying to figure out what he/she wants.

[messer981]

shut up we aren't gunna die. planks.

[3gdosrsfs]

No we wont but all the starving people

that could have been fed with the money

they spent on this toy for scientist, will.

Priorities people!!! It does not matter how the universe was created if we watch each other die!!!!

God is the answer....This is beyond bogus.

[Ykoahi]

Really? You're preaching world hunger?

This is a huge priority. Knowing how the universe was created opens up endless possibilities.

And besides, if we don't find a way to colonize a different planet the human race will cease to exist in a few million years.

[3R1CtheRED]

@Ykoahi lol a few million? try maybe a thousand

[Ykoahi]

@3R1CtheRED Errrrr, not really. Show me evidence that global warming or anything else that is actually destroying the planet. The sun is way more of a threat.

[Deardraf]

Wait,ok so lets say that we spent this moneys to feed and shelter some homeless/poor people.Uhm,lets see....and thats the only thing you do.After a couple of years there are going to be another homeless people.And this is a infinite circle because humanity always progress no matter what.Why not find a new source of energy and get rid of the old ones.On the saved moneys you could help the poor people.

My opinion is that LHC is verry usefull, we might not find too much but its still a progress.

[kingrpa3000]

i dont wanna die! i have a wife and 3 kids and im 11 years old. no wait i hav 2 bros and a mom and dad

[TravianCoD4]

I want to die!

[soupdragon42]

This man can think for himself. This alone should be applauded. Contrast this with the continual parroting of mainstream nonsense about black holes, dark matter, and dark energy. Moreover, he's funny. Great work.

[chick5581]

Really awesome video! It's interesting to see these kinds of videos on here. I like the fact the youtube is freedom for any kind of video. =)

[dramspringfeald]

after firing it took 3 hours to malfunction

[6MitchMan]

"Get ready to suck."

There's SO MANY things wrong with that comment/sentence

[malstromsyn]

"....prove dark matter..."??? dark mater exists!

ever heard of a positron? well guess not...

[DartTheCheetah]

Well, we're still here aren't we?

[aceistookool]

lol eaquels d...

=D

[rekabm]

this guy is hot

[Rafyouraf]

Search Omg the train

[RyuDarragh]

One thing everyone is missing. The biggest black hole it coulr create is about the size of a subatomic particle. That means that it would only be able to eat an atom at a time if it *did* make a stable black hole. At the fastest possible eat speed, it would take 3.47x10^27 nanoseconds to eat the earth.

[6manchesterutd6]

If the odds of destroying the earth are trully

1/50 million that machine shouldnt be turned on.

0_0

Thats way to high. Im pretty sure its not possible that the collider destroys the world since they r going to turn it on...

[agentx3]

Wow you're a dumbass.

[6manchesterutd6]

I really think a 1/50 Million chance of destroying the earth is a very risky bet considering all there is to lose. How does make me dumb, dont u know ppl win lotteries with those odds.

[agentx3]

Yeah, except there's more than one person at a time entered in a lottery. We don't have a billion fucking atom smashers, so the odds have been lowered. Do you feel stupid yet?

[6manchesterutd6]

Idiot. For the one person that won its the same. It can happen, 1/50 Million chance of blowing up the earth is enough to not take the risk, Im sure every single scientist would agree, and btw, theres no freaking possibility of the earth getting destroyed thats why they are going to turn it on for our fortune.

[agentx3]

OMG you just contradicted yourself. You said, and I quote, "theres no freaking possibility of the earth getting destroyed thats why they are going to turn it on for our fortune". So what the fuck are you fighting for? What are you saying we're risking?

[6manchesterutd6]

Im saying there is no 1/50 Million chance of the earth egtting destroyed.

[agentx3]

That means that in 50,000,000 times it's turned on, one will form a very small black hole that will take...what did they say? Years to destroy Earth? And Steven Hawkins said that it would be so small it would disappear. Why are you so afraid?

And lol, if we die we die.

So, how's that compacted to neutron star-density Ego doing? Apparently Jed found that to be pretty funny! I almost didn't hear him laugh because of how loudly I laughed!

Keep up the great work guys.

[gabbz006]

hahahahahahahahaha please pick this one please.equals d.....hahahahahaha

its a smiley face =D

[patriroqt]

i love how you can hear someone laughing in the background at 0:58

[jaygatsbylive]

I heard about this thing like a year ago when the string theorist was explaining his string theory.

The thing I don't get is paying that amount of money for something that even if it succeeds, only suggests that their theories might possibly be correct or partly correct. The simple fact that they are looking for unaccounted loss of energy isn't even close to proving that that energy was lost to other dimensions.

[odysseus9672]

Here's how they estimate it - the events are not unprecedented. Just look in to astroparticle physics and you'll find that events far more energetic than the LHC will make happen relatively 'frequently,' compared to the age of the earth, in our atmosphere. So, they use the age of the solar system, a pretty good estimate for how often such events happen, and they can estimate how improbable an event that would destroy us is likely to be.

Try asking next time before showing off your ignorance.

[PerryWinnwet]

Sweden, Switzerland, I must have mis-heard...

I shall now equal D.

[1halfLUVsong]

wait... somebody told me this thing was built in switzerland. now this guy said sweden? so... where?

[WhatYouOughtToKnow]

It crosses the border between Switzerland and France. The only reason we said Sweden is because we were quoting an email.

[1halfLUVsong]

oh i didn't mean you guys with the sweden/switzerland thing.

i meant the person that sent the email ;)

i just notice that a lot of people (ok, americans - no offense! really!) seem to confuse the two countries a lot...

but well

:)

[mantas1111000]

@WhatYouOughtToKnow Then you should have corrected it.

I mean, do they speak french in Sweden?

[AndySCook22]

@1halfLUVsong its in geneva

Eek! I thought the atoms smashed this morning.  So, 1 and 50 mil when it does happen? At least you made the deadline. *thumbs up!*

[schmalthoff]

So, when I watched the video I noticed that it had already been viewed three times, making me number four. I also noticed that you had three separate viewers comment. So now I have to comment or I'll break the chain and the I'll end up like Kristen Pembleton of Columbus, OH who broke the chain and three days later snapped her femur in a freak vacuum cleaner accident. I'm not superstitous, but I'm not going down like that.

[weggles]

I'm surprised that there wasn't a "Large hardon collider" joke. :P

You said LCH @ ~2 minutes. It's LHC. ):

Ego, ahahhaha.

Always correcting people. Only a geek like you would know that.
