You know there was a meeting in the editing department to discuss if they should keep the iron shot. Whomever decided to keep it is a genius and deserves a raise. That shot is the most memorable piece of artistic expression I've ever seen in a 'How it's Made' video.
That Iron just strapped in, 10/10 bodge
Came here to say this! That iron that starts the entire process tho...
That was so........ high tech.....
the aluminum base on that iron won't last long. And I can't imagine it does much with the paper flying through there so fast.
i got the 300th like
And yet apparently it gets the card to "5%" moisture... 🤔
This is easily the most chaotic episode of How It's Made I've seen.
I love how it's like, 400 years later and we got it streamlined. Cuts to machines flinging matches everywhere and a literal clothing iron.
It is somewhere in South East Asia, what do you expect?
@@user-yx5pd7yi8o south east asia or anywhere its just how they keep it cheap... if match box cost more you wouldn’t buy. its such a basic product to do the job the cheaper the better. plus bigger factories wont allow cameras 1st because of competition 2nd because almost a;lways they are in some kind of minor safety violation or not so clean or hygiene....
@@xilnes7166 True. I approve this product. I also approve the blood of small childrens hands on my clothes if that means i get it cheaply.
0:35 i just love how its a legit hot iron
lmao yeah
I laughed way too hard when I saw that like I had to do a double take and rewind 2-3 times to make sure I was seeing that like it was a deadass hot iron 😂😂😂
I worked at an EPS plant and instead of those bagging machines we just used a hot iron to seal the plastic when bagging up shipments. It sucked.
@@joshuagraham2470 wtf how do youactualy do that i mean like you just lay it on top or hold it close to is you must have bruced wrisks at the end of the day i guess or not?
so ghetto
"The machine is calibrated to fill each box with a set amount of matches and reject the extra ones"
*LOOSE MATCHES RANDOMLY FLINGING ALL OVER THE PLACE*
Lol
😂😂😂
Funny 😆
Those are the extra ones.
#Cursed 🤣😂
This has to be the jankiest production line. Boxes flying all over, matches left all over the place, and perhaps the world's most literal iron.
Lol
imagine if that place caught on fire 🙄
Shit is ghetto as fuck
Not to mention the fucking CLOTHES IRON that was fhucking zip tied at the beginning of the video.
Sorry for my previous comment, I didn’t realize that you had already mentioned the iron.
0:38 when you can't build an ironing machine
*SO YOU USED AN ACTUAL IRON*
Modern Ploblems require Modern Solutions 🤣😂
0:36 Yes... That's an iron alright...
The boss’ wife uses that same one to press his shirts and slacks after the day is done.
@@farticlesofconflatulation lolll
Now, how do they make the machines that make the matches
Matches a replica of laundry.
And how they also make the machines that made the machines that made the matches?
@@resilientgaming4443 😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve wondered the same thing for years honestly. Glad I’m not the only one
Yeah how do they?
1:13 I know the feeling left out by that box on the bottom left
😔✊✊
😔☝️
Lolll
This is the story of the hot iron that wanted to be a factory machine.
I owe a clothing iron, which means this is the closest I've been to being able to mass produce anything from this show.
I'm always in awe of the machines that are used but when I saw 0:39 it put a big smile on my face.😎😅
Almost every step there were matches flying everywhere. Makes me think one of them could light from enough friction or getting stuck in the wrong area
Safety matches require a chemical reaction from the lightning strip on the side of the box. So it is impossible for it to light from just friction. Which is why it is a safety match...
@@Zekurity no it’s not impossible, try breaking off the match head composition, put it on a hard surface and hit it with a hammer and it will explode, the match heads contain potassium chlorate and potassium chlorate with pretty much any dry fuel is extremely friction sensitive
with this mess i wouldn't be surprised if one of them accidentally hit a striking strip during packing xd
@@KClO3 Some people just want to see matches burn master Wayne.
@@Zekurity It’s a famous bar trick to light matches on a window.
0:37 hot iron is literally an iron
So powerful and advanced machinery at its finest quality
And then you have this 😂
0:35
Imagine that a match sparks by accident during packaging...
OOF

Never thought I would be up at 4 am being the first view on a how it’s made video, but here I am
Livin' the dream, man. Congratulations.
found this at 3 28 am
ENE found this at 5:07 am
02:45 - AW - I was actually looking forward to how they made the wood splints. A shame they skipped that part. :-D
Maybe they manually carved it.
Me too. That has to be a very intriguing setup. Think of how much sawdust they must generate. I think about the quality of the wood that they must use. I've never seen any semblance of knots or splits nor of twisted grain structure. Very high wood quality to be sure. Tiny little gangs of saw blades at high speed. How often must they change out the blades. What speed must they run to cut such perfect little sticks.
I like how so many people look so closely as to identify the iron😂 00:35
My evil mind wants to light them and watch an memorising explosion while they are on the conveyer belt
Hey, VSauce, Michael here. How fast can you run?
Watching this, all I can think of is "phossy jaw". Long story short, back in the late 1800 and early 1900s, match factory workers got this thing called phossy jaw. Where the white phosphorous used in the matches at the time (the kind we use now is less toxic) and no safety gear basically caused the workers lower jawbones to turn the consistancy of cheese and become full of pus n rot. Their teeth fell out, their mouths and cheeks became full of holes and their lower jaws literally rotted off their heads. Also, the really badly affected peoples jawbone glowed slightly greenish in the dark (no joke). It also caused brain damage. Look it up for more info.
Isnt information fun?
ignorance is bliss my brethren, it is blissful
wow way to ruin a perfectly fun comment section
Imagine how many “This is a no smoking area” signs there must be in that factory
given that it is indeed a match factory, I can only imagine that anyone found within a hundred yards with anything even remotely capable of starting a fire on their person is beaten near death by the factory workers
A new How's It Made? I never thought I'd see the day!
0:39 some serious technologies
Now my brain is calibrated and recalibrated. Anyway, these are the kind of episodes that I like on CZcams the most.
This is a fascinating process.
The safety match was invented by the Swedish man Ivar Kreuger that controlled between two thirds and three quarters of worldwide match production, becoming known as the "Match King"
Imagine how satisfying it would be to light a fire in there
Imagine being fired then arrested for arsonist/terrorism!
@@cursedhawkins1305 worth it
@@myhatzulu Sure, go ahead and ruin your record because you wouldn't find a job after pulling such a stunt.
@@cursedhawkins1305 not if you stay anonymous
Or make it look like an accident
Love your vids they are sooo interesting
This is so satisfying to watch
It's very interesting to watch How it's Made.
if a fire starts in that factory you're straight up out of luck
00:40
I dry my drawers in winters that way 😅
Thank you Kanye, very cool!
Love the iron!!
This is my favorite episode of How It's Made
Skynet sees an actually iron on a production line.
Skynet takes note.
Skynet becomes self aware.
0:35 that's a shady factory man.
Hats off for all mechanics who are created the these miracles.
I know! Where would I be if I couldn't iron my shirts.
Thanks for showing what’s in the striking strip on the box...
brilliant thanks 4 sharing this struck a cord with me xx
this is the most chaotic how its made video I have watched to date
Good work ❤
Very interesting
Happy New Year’s Eve everyone
The wooden matches made in Thailand.😍😍😍
At 4:12 please take note this is the *FILLING* machine not the rinsing machine.
Amazing
Using such an old iron in this product line is funny)))
Jahahaha
Really good series to watch while weed
Love it
It was super crazy how did you take the video inside
The iron just standing there like a last minute fix had me loling so hard
Not satisfied with harnessing the power of fire in match boxes, man invented the lithium battery.
All those excess matches being shoved against boxes and their strikers, it's only a matter of time before they light up and manage to start a fire.
If this factory catches on fire. Factory:🧨🔥🔥🔥
Who ever built these machines to function how they do. You are smart af
Factories - How Its Made. I’ve always thought what makes the thing that makes the thing, and what makes the thing that makes that.
That iron deserves to be MVP
Sin duda todo el proceso para fabricar fósforos en esta fábrica es un cagadero bastante peligroso en caso de incendio.
That red powder isn’t “colouring” it’s red phosphorus which is combustible
Lisa what did you see???
Well fuck me david you got me there
I sometimes see my wife taking the creases out of my shirts with one of those match factory devices
youtube recommendation during lockdown: how to matches are made.. who else ended up here like me?
Legendary iron 👍🏽
cant fucking wait for huggbees to do the "how its actually made" of this lmfaooooooooooo
4:38 looks like great quality control too. :) this is kinda funny.
I'm guessing these employees can't have smoke breaks.
3:56 Imagine someone starting a fire in there
"we didn't start the fire!"
@@wayne_._ us?
@@LuigiCotocea it's a song reference.
@@wayne_._ Or is it?
Vsauce music plays...
Oh that explains the fire part
Imagine how hard it would be to get that building insured
Im at awe when I saw the iron xD
2:50 forbidden piknik
Nice
Other companies: "We got Discovery coming to film today so let's clean up get everything ready."
This company: "Discovery is coming today and, yeah, just keep working."
This is pure steampunk manufacturing!
So did this answer any burning questions
Once I saw that iron, I realized how match boxes are basically given away everywhere.
Cool
Matches come in a VARIETY of sizes. Large or small 😂
Looks like the iron is the new industry standard
Wow, matches are partly made of gelletain! Maybe this is why gelletain saved match in BFDI a 4... (1:59)
I just cracked seeing that iron
That litwral iron is straight getto
NICE
Me: **putting red velvet cake mix to cook in the oven**
Workers in the match factory: o_0
Huh.. Can't remember the last time I used a match. 🤔 Must have been more than ten years ago..
I saw some in a superstore over Christmas, next to the gas lighters. There were a number of match boxes missing, so people still use them.
Dead 💀 they just have an everyday house iron strapped onto this mass production industrial machine
Won't The "Diamond" Company Be So Proud?
He is very good in the mountain when you want to make your body a very warm
Just for help us
And that's very interesting 😎😎😎😎
That's sick
A literal hot iron 🤣🤣
Maybe a fixed kind of texture can spark fire also? Is there a discovery move on it?
Good
At least we've confirmed that it's a filling machine.
inner box production comes to a stop if the "iron" goes busted.🤣

LMAO that iron is jank af
