How To Make a 100ft Glow Stick!!!

[nerdybrony]

@NurdRage. i would like to make this for my niece for her first birthday. i would like to ask you a few things.

1. in another video, you showed that yellow was brighter than green. what dye, if any, would give a stronger glow than yellow

2. can you recommend places where i can buy these chemicals and equipment. note that i'm a teenager in new zealand and i'm mostly hoping for online stores.

[samsaras]

Cute!

[arkangelp666]

so,this is how dart vader make his light-saber glow...ha???

[BloodyValentines1]

Id use it in a mosh pit. :3 or decorate a house. :D

[unkeptsurvivor]

How about silly string?

Love the vids

And your voice lol

[freakman420]

Hey you should re-create that scene from the movie Riddick where they all have to travel with those glow ropes to keep the things away.

[11shadowchaos]

@NurdRage you should try and glowstring with it!

[BloodHarvest21]

*6 year old me at a family reunion*

Aunt: What do you wanna be when you grow up? A firefighter, a cowboy, an astronaut...

Me: I wanna be a chemist!

Aunt: ...

Skydive with it! Have it coiled up, Jumper exits plane at 10,000 ft above ground level, Jumper freefalls a short distance and opens parachute, Under parachute he releases one end and holds the other. 8 minutes of flight time that should provide a good show from the ground.

[drinkcocainenow]

Yes lots off since here

[nerdybrony]

with 1000ft/300m you could do alot. you could problably do a christmas special where you made it multicoloured.

[Ailenkid27]

[kakashi0909]

question nurd.... i know it is categorized as inappropriate but why mask your voice and cencor the rest of the troops? does it matter if your a chemist to mask yourselves? dunno why im askin but just curious... anywho awesome glow stick stuffs.but i was wondering IF changing the first chemical with something similar to produce different color... i know its possible but here is what i came up... a glow stick that changes color like them battery powered light toy that changes color...

[theliberator1]

ok first i was just watching your videos for home made pyro stuff, but this has convinced me. scienece is much more fun than people think!

[WasabiMeal]

"Back when I was a kid, we used to have hula hoops.

Do I still got it... No... epic fail"

loll

[DetroitEminem1]

all i listen to is his giant voice

[Budreaux1973]

Can you please post the chemical additives to achieve the various colors?

[MrAARON225]

Have the biggest rave ever

[CoolbreezeFromSteam]

do you do the audio while or after you record?

[ianator99]

[MissBrieBiscuit]

[CQBfanatics]

1000 that would be freaken awesome

[julias344]

I would make green and blue

[cleanloader]

attach it to a car or bike and drive/ride around :D or do a mad rave

[mebrowneyedgirl]

that's why geeks have the best parties!

[billynightmare]

how much $ was this to make?

[HeyStupidFlanders]

I would get 10000 feet with interlocking and woven arrangments. Circulate different colors thru and have it times to music! ugh!

[coondogtheman1234]

So that's how they made the glowing fiber optic cables in the movie pitch black. Very cool glow rope.

[Turtleale1]

Rave

[zakshaks]

make a ghost rider whip

[zimtower]

I think I saw his face, I think I saw a reptilian.

[seocom]

That is great.. thanks

[ernestoagosto1]

1000 feet long???... NERDGAZIMMMM

[kyidyl]

You know, you might want to call Guinness and see if you can actually set record for this...maybe make a video about making the worlds longest glow stick. There's a longest glow in the dark necklace, and a longest glow stick chain, but not continuous glow stick (I can't add links, but you can search for "glow" on Guinness' website.).

I have no idea what you'd use it for though... x.x Maybe get a photographer friend and take some really neat pictures, possibly underwater?

[dustinbmxcs2]

Put it on a semitruck plus trailer carying cars

[SonOfEnkiGodOfWisdom]

Emergency road side flares(Glowstix).

[kevvyk23]

Fishing!!!



[Core297]

Wrap it around you body and go raving. :D

[halofreaker132]

show this to a 5 year old, they'll think it's radioactive!....... well, at least think it'll kill you.. they probably wouldn't know the word 'radioactive' yet..... lol

[zsakul2]

i fucking love you......

[CaptainAthiest]

Nice How much is the cost.

[LOLOVF3]

How do they make the bikes glow in the black berry bold commercial ?

[fozzydabeer]

You should get a bunch of weather balloons and fill with helium. The get your tubing a make a fake UFO looking thing attach the balloons and freak some people out at night.

[firewing33]

I know! Simply replace your blood with it! Watch your organs fail, but see you as a nuclear generator!

[Mr32669]

how long does it last?

[firewing33]

Possibly with the 1000 footer you could swing it over your house, create a fort with it, attach it to your car and drive around with it, run around while holding it, or stack the coils and make a tube?

[B1k0u]

Freeze the glowstick mixture in liquid nitrogen :D

[evermore66]

Snort it.

Jokes aside, planning to do the 1000ft glow stick? that seems interesting!

[xarlz159]

Ask your wife, girlfriend or parents with i!

[xarlz159]

what that thing that spin during 1:05?

[ktsswan]

how much $ did it set you back for the chemicals?

[JASMINETHOA]

It hurt my eye soo bright

[dgcabrall]

1 word AWSOME!

[tamasmihaly1]

You guys are not nerds... You're totally cool... As for ideas, My wife loves stringing christmas lights throughout our rooms. its pretty. Try wrapping them up during party times or dropping it to the bottom of a pool/ Jacuzzi. Viewers on YouTube may not dig it, but the ladies at your parties will...

[adam93306]

make a costume out of the tubing

[oDRFTY]

Putting it in a clear river/ocean at night... Or a exotic fish tank. I don't know something like that

[midgetpantssupreme]

Is there anything to do with the chemical solution after the glowing has stopped?

[MrSuednym]

@midgetpantssupreme No, only when the 9,10 dye runs out.

[midgetpantssupreme]

@MrSuednym when it physically separates or the glowing runs out? I'm assuming the later.

[ekonswagger]

out of one to ten i give a 8

[elflordbob1]

lol gonna go to a rave now to show off my huge glow stick

[DATWEIRDGUY1]

The most interesting things you could come up with were, jump rope, hula hooping and wraping it around a tree????????

[NurdRage]

@DATWEIRDGUY1 Which is why i directly ask you to suggest something better.... (psst, you haven't).

:)

[JerryGiesler09]

Lemme see...How about taping those 100ft glowstick under the tarp or in a houseboat/pontoon the next time we go camping or fishing??? :)

[ihartjames1]

It would be awesome if you could put several colors into one tube, and use them as temporary christmas lights or just for decoration. or even Red and blue with white in between for the 4th, or green for st. patty's

[NurdRage]

@ihartjames1 Yeah, different colors in the same tube is an idea, i have to be careful not to mix them while filling. But i'll see what i can do. 

[ihartjames1]

@NurdRage Would you be able to put stoppers in between the colors? that way they wouldn't mix. Although, it might not work well if they move sideways...

[irvingadkins616]

This is one "damp" video. =p

[ahmadanwarable]

can we have these chemicals from market? please give there chemical names......

[ihartjames1]

@ahmadanwarable If you look for the first video that they made, it has a list of the chemicals in the description.

[ahmadanwarable]

@ihartjames1 thnxx

[ihartjames1]

@ahmadanwarable no problem. I just love watching these videos



[ModernWarfareXP3]

Poor nerds didn't get viwed

[kiil8901]

hang it outside 4 a 6 hr party on the roof or on a fence

[Migueldeservantes]

Its there a way to make it glow permanently? and what happen after it stop glowing? Do you need to pay to a company to recycle the chemicals?

[droolblanket]

I kept on screaming in my mind, "This is such a Tron-ish stuff" again, and again.

Suddenly you mentioned Tron. I'm speechless. Hail Science!

[S4B3R117]

Thousand ft glow stick!

[MaxTheMusicalOne]

What would I do with this? Anything that can be done with a 100 ft fucking glowstick.

[BoredomIdeas]

Attatch the 100 ft. glow stick to a medium sized biplane and fly it at night!!!

[mylove4jim]

#1. Attach one end of a 10-20' section to an arrow and shot it with a cross bow. #2. Make dog leashes with it to walk your dog at night. #3. Make small hoops and attach them to the rims of your car and drive around with them. #4. Outline a large kite and fly it at night. #5. Wrap it loosely around your body and go swimming, the deeper the better.

[killer1479]

It would be cool to see you build a little house out of clear pipe and put the glowing liquid, it would look brilliant :)

[tipton270]

[magnaman797]

any actual nerd would know that it is grammatically proper to say Epic Failure in place of Epic Fail.

[NurdRage]

@magnaman797 I reject your assertion on the "no true Scotsman" fallacy.

In any case, there is a difference between science nerd and grammar nazi; I am the former, you are the latter.

[hubjubjub]

Um...
