(splashing)

00:02

- Today I am here with Kevin,

00:03

more commonly known as the Backyard Scientist.

00:06

And as fate would have it, we are actually in-

00:08

- The backyard.

00:09

- So I recently made a video where I converted a leaf blower

00:12

into a snowball machine gun and the first thing he said was-

00:15

- You should set those on fire.

00:16

- So as soon as I got here today, we-

00:18

(upbeat music)

00:25

But flaming snowballs aren't actually why I'm here today.

00:28

Show 'em why I'm here today, Kevin.

00:30

(glass breaking, splashing)

00:30

So I actually don't drink,

00:31

but I've heard of people doing this with beer bottles.

00:34

So either Kevin has some superpowers,

00:36

or there's some crazy physics going on there

00:39

that we're gonna try and figure out today.

00:40

- So neither of us really knows what causes these bottles

00:43

to break and there's a lot of conflicting evidence out there

00:45

but we have some of our own ideas.

00:47

- So as firm believers in the scientific method,

00:49

we are going to science our way to the right answer

00:52

through a bunch of experiments.

00:53

- I'll drink to that.

00:54

- Not yet you won't, Kevin. (glass popping, laughing)

00:57

(glass breaking)
