  • WTF no explosions?

  • The DEA is a horrible monster of a federal agency that needs its head cut off. They have gone so far in Texas as to require a permit to buy Pyrex flasks. Although I don't imagine too much important science was happening in Texas anyway...

  • @mygaffer Drop ship to a Safe Drop in another state and have them reship to you without a customs and import paper. Do you need a passport to get into Texas yet?

  • Little Willie was a chemist

    Little Willie is no more

    For what he thought was H20

    Was H2SO4

  • What's the spelling of the low concentration hydrochloric acid we can buy at home depot?

  • @andrew2nelson Muratic acid. It is used in maintaining ph levels in swimming pool water and cleaning concrete.

  • Holy-Terrorist:>*=* The sublimation of iodine in water of very hot liquid and place a very cold liquid to haves crystal iodine, other stuff haved in french wikipedia of iodine very pure, is potassium iodide and copper sulfate make a potassium sulfate and copper iodide(CuI2) to decompose fast in potassium iodide(CuI) and iodine(I) and distillation for the sublimation method of recrystallisation of cold glass, and isoled in glass bottle, the key of preparation of pure iodine!

  • Brilliant!

    Ingenuity trumps the DEA!

  • Can I put that on my cut........

  • Is crystal iodine and iodine crystals the same thing?

  • @t3trojans yes it is, some people just call it different.

  • @t3trojans

    Yep . . .iodine is usually sold in an alcoholic solution so crystal iodine is used instead of aqueous iodine.

  • Time 2 call Jack the ripper ANE.TXT-2 hahaha then we will see whose fucking the government DEA has nothing and i mean nothing on him i kid you not.......

  • they restrict iodine sales, they dont illegalize it's possesion

  • Yeah man!! Brakin' laws ^^

  • Can I make Iodine by adding CuSO4 to KI?

    2CuSO4(aq)+4KI=2K2SO4(aq)+2CuI­2

    CuI2 then decomposes to CuI and Iodine.

    2CuI2=2CuI=I2

    I2 would be purified by sublimation crystallization.

  • I bet this guy could make some koota fucking gear hahahahahaha

  • Smartass....

  • omg <3<3<3

  • "and we just broke the law" is that illegal....?

  • ...why would I want this...?

  • Stupid people don't.

  • @polidic "stupid people don't" what? Use correct english or know how to answer questions? Which is it? With your response I'll guess both. :-)

  • It's neither --

  • Does Bob Thompson look like older Jim Gaffigan to anyone else?

  • Hot pockets

  • eeew 0:18 looks like a turd

  • it is a sugar acid reaction

  • Great video.

    They really need to disband the DEA and BATFE as both organizations are more worthless then crap.

  • Watch the video Agenda 21 - That's what the DEA is for in reality.

  • Oddly enough just by outlawing hemp the DEA probably has done far more damage to the environment then what every SUV on the road has or ever will do.

    If this is their plan they are beyond stupid.

  • Completely agree - but if you watch agenda 21 you'll understand a lot more about why thats happening.

  • @Membrane556 they are an evil organization spawned by Satan himself. What do you expect?

  • In case you're wondering where you can buy potassium iodide, I got it from The Vitamin Shoppe.

  • Well shit man why not just boil down normal iodine then put in a diferant conainer, add water then boil it diwn?

  • What is iodine?

  • biology : iodine is to test for starch, other then that lmao idk :P

  • halogen

  • it's iodine not iodeene

    and getting iodide is almost as hard as getting iodine

  • The DEA is crap I want my Iodine

  • o.o was there a chemical reaction o.o it went blah @ moment of brown-ness lol

  • 0:19 it looks like shite

  • shit in a cup

  • lol we made that in science class last year and it smells worse than shit too =]

  • cool

  • FYI: DEA restricts crystal iodine because it is used in the manufacturing of Meth.

  • or you can use it to make nitrogen triiodide which is one of the most sensitive explosives

  • @jsmithmilitary #3 i belive then ncl3 and then nbr3

  • @jsmithmilitary sshhhh!

  • Somebody's Breaking Bad!!!  =D

  • Naw. I'm more like the OCD Hal on MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE.

  • thanks now i need the rest of the ingredient u know more?

  • I have no idea what they are doing.

  • but is that a good reason? it has more good uses than bad.

  • @lonelydork15 the DEA can suck my cock. Plastic straws are used to snort cocaine. Does that mean they should be restricted so that nobody can use plastic straws? Fuck the DEA.

  • @lonelydork15 Yeah, so is sulfuric acid. Should they ban that? I kid you not, in Texas it is illegal to own an Erlenmeyer flask because it's used to make meth. You know why these things are used to make meth? Because they're USEFUL PRECURSORS! To many things! Goddammit...

  • @kevinmost93 the government would ban life itself (and has before in some places for some people) if it didn't need our money, for all but those IN government, and would still claim to be protecting us from ourselves. government IS tyranny, and democracy is tyranny by majority; VOLUNTARYISM FTW

  • @lonelydork15 no shit sherlock!!!

  • @lonelydork15 Shhhhh

  • @lonelydork15

    Yay, now i can make meth!

  • lol uh why would you watch a video about making a suspension of crystal iodine, when that is clearly the title of the video? It's not like it says "big boobies" or something

  • u watched it apparently.

  • Agreed.

  • Agreed.

  • Too right, when the DEA want more money they just ban another substance.

  • In my school teacher was telling NEVER pure water to acid , Always acid to water .

    I have seen they pure water to acid . Maybe I am wrong .......

  • it's so the acid wont splash when you're pouring.. it's just a safety issue.. but who cares.. as long as your safe it's ok either way

  • I guess that means you have potassium hydroxide formed and then your filter out the solute which happens to be the Iodine crystals.

  • Cool, do one on crystal meth next time!

  • i use that stuff for cuts

  • where is a good place to buy chemicals

  • Where is the video for whatever they made at the 0:17 mark?

  • It's a reaction which occurs when you put pure sulfuric acid in with sugar, it makes a porous carbon mass erupt from the beaker.

  • where do I buy sulphuric acid to try it out?

  • I hate all of you idiots who think that this isn't useful information. No, it's not just a color change, it's the formation of crystal iodine which is actually difficult to get a hold of now. I've been looking for some way to get a good amount of it without going on "the list", and this is perfect.

  • what can crystal iodine be used in?

  • you can use in on cuts.

  • heh heh nothing

    no I'm kidding, but some kids used it to make meth...so

  • where are you going to get the potassium iodide so? it's not so cheap.

  • what is that black stuff in the intro???

    it kinda looks like black play-doh

  • its probably semi molten tar.

  • Fail. It's a carbon mass made from mixing sugar and pure sulfuric acid.

  • I would like to film that reaction. Can you change the color from black to something else with food coloring? Where do I buy sulphuric acid?

  • Omg, are you serious?

  • who failed?

  • Someone said it was semi molten tar probably.

  • DEA

  • i thought he was making crack lOL ..niqqa had da baking soda in da side and didnt even use it

  • why are you reposting this video`???

  • repost?

  • Thats what i thought ;)

  • Iodine and ammonium hydroxide, that makes touch sensitive explosives. It leaves a mess though.

  • what the fuck was this?!, i hoped something would explode or do something interesting, but noo, stupid colour changing... daaaamm..

  • 30 seconds is too long for an intro..

  • Pause at 1:39! He looks retarded! LOL!

  • thanks!!! made my day lolll

  • hahahah oh god thanks for that

  • You guys are welcome! LOL

  • hI please accept that I am an old guy with no Chemistry knowledge so this may be viewed as a ' DUH!' question, but please have patience eh, I recall using Iodine for cuts etc ? - hurt like hell though if I remember right ? - why is it a 'listed' substance now? - I am assuming, from other comments, that it is Drug related in some way is that right? Thanks for your patience eh..

  • There is a difference between Iodine and crystal iodine. Normal Iodine is still an off the shelf item.

  • Hi, thanks for the reply and info eh, appreciated. So the crystal Iodine is up for miss use then? so it is a listed substance.

  • well for those of us with too much time on our hands it can be used to make rather nice boom booms. For some strange reasonthe government frowns on that sort of stuff. Go figure.

  • You know, that's what I am getting to feel, like people are trying to further their knowledge, enhance their miserable lot in life after Gov' has sucked out a more than generous amount of enjoyability (?), ! with what's left, why not increase your knowledge and who knows, one day it might come in useful ?? - that's put my name and details on some 'watch this geezer list !! produced by 'Echelon ' eh !! haha, a a a a oh S*@t there goes my pension........

  • Among some other thousands of uses is the production of Crystal Meth. Although i guess other reduction agents can be substituted, perhaps making the result more toxic.

  • I suppose the saying " where there's a will there's a way ? "" eh. And I suppose also those that mfg the stuff have a good savy on chemicals as well.. Thanks for the inf, appreciated.

  • I went to MAKER and they make you sign up! Means MONEY for them and F you! My buddy made crystals about 2" from ALUM 40 yearsw ago. This is for stupid GEEKS

  • We had this one some time earlier!

  • yeah like 9 months back or more

  • Hat's off to you chemistry folks, but I could never get into chemistry or chemical based sciences. That's interesting stuff.

  • 0:18 looks like shit! ahaahah

  • is maker fair still going on?

  • Make: Science Room - Making crystal meth

  • What can crystal Iodine be used for? Other than the experiments in the book?

  • ghb manurfacturing

  • he mentioned water purification. not sure what else though =/ they use it in hospitals also, well iodine.

  • iodine is also used to clean wounds..

  • if im not mistaken this same video was on the air last year

  • whats so poisonous about salt :(

  • table salt nothing but a lot can hurt you like getting a real salt block and lick it you can get poisoned becuse of somthing in it

  • Eat a couple of cups of it, you'll see.

  • xD i laughed at 0:19

  • grow up

  • sorry i was just pointing it out

  • thank you, now I can finally go thru with m y plans.... MUUHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • this was awesome...

  • he needs to calm down and talk slower

  • uh, blah blah uh, blah uh, blah

  • hahaha, awesome! fight the power mon!

  • its just Darwinism calm down...

  • well its the meth users fault, this was for science, if the meth use it for other stuff than its their fault that they cant use common sense not to use it wrongly

  • meth users will get meth without this

  • True :)

  • mmmmmmmmmmmm meth ;)

  • both Home Depot, Lowes, and ACO around here no longer sell "Muriatic Acid." Instead they have some sort of "safe" acid which I have no idea the composition. It claims 90% less fumes.

    I need it to make Cupric Chloride for copper etching, but I can't find the stuff anywhere around here. (SE Michigan)

    I can find gallons of lye and sulfuric acid, even copper sulphate for zinc etching but no true "muriatic acid"

    Maybe this is a shadowy way of keeping you from performing this type of lab work?

  • this video is very old i saw this a year ago or soemthing same guy

  • I like how he wears his goggles. I was waiting to see something splash onto his eyes.

  • i saw this same video a long time ago?

  • whoa, i thought it was something else...on my subscriptions list it said Make: "Science Room - Making crystal..." and i was like- "no freaking way!!!!"

  • meth? :L

  • lol, yea

  • hehehe, i saw and thought the exact same thing!

  • lol go chemists! Fight the power! Damn that was the most genius movement since...ever!

  • it's used to make meth

  • already uploaded isn't it?

  • so dumb this video was already posted long ago, they just made it better. 1/5

  • yay for federal felonies!!!!! xD

  • iodeen? or iodine

  • whats with the film hop at 4:06 ish

  • why is it illegal

  • yaaaay lets break the law for science

  • its not breaking the law

  • Nice.

  • not just any dumb reason tht stuff is regulated...

  • Hahahaha

  • Potassium iodine is something you can find at home? *sigh*

  • nope..but you could probably order some at your local pharmacy..thats what i did

  • the guy talking is such a meth dealer

  • the thumbnail stopped at crystal so i immediately thought meth

  • the guy explaining stuff seems like an asshole...

  • what does crystal iodine do?

  • why would it be on the dea's list thing

  • probably gets you high, or it blows stuff up.

  • PRIME INGREDIANT IN METH

  • ingredient not ingrediant

  • Because it can be used to make methamphetamine.

  • (0:18) tht look like shit lol

  • Yes, i did this experiment at School, its actually pure carbon and when left after expanding its all crispy and weird... haha, fun times.

  • Cool

  • they be breaking the law!

  • Good.

  • so basically this video is against the law?

  • no. but now that you watched it the government thinks your planning to make drugs.
