SNOW IS ICE SAND
stop posting on the internet.
He's not wrong. Also think about this: Ice is a crystal. Water is a molten crystal. So water is sorta like lava.
Humans are lava monsters!
ICE IS SNOW GLASS
@@Zero-Infinium actually Glass is not crystalline

Today I learned on Hydraulic Press Channel: How to turn snow into iceberg, that snow is the sand of ice, how to make Pop Rocks with ice, and how to make ice cream with ice cream.
This channel is truly a blessing to us all. Thank you so much Lauri and Anni for a wonderful 2022 and Iâm looking forward to more exciting winter content heading into 2023!
Today I learned from the Hydraulic Press Channel that someone is out there selling ice to Finns.

So good to see and hear Anniâs voice. Love you guys
theyâre the cutest couple on the internet. fight me about it.

@@maksphoto78 youâre damn right I did.
Yes! I've been missing her taking part!
I was in Newfoundland some years ago, and set to a restaurant in the far north of the island. They use iceberg chips as ice in your water, and the ice lightly fizzes on your tongue from the thousands of year old compresses air in the ice. Pressure and time turned the snow into hard ice, and compressed the air inside it. This ice was about 75,000 years old. You could accelerate the process by putting it under pressure for a few minutes, returning it to the cold, then back under pressure, and complete this cycle multiple times. I believe you will get more satisfactory results.
4:13 The height of hydraulic press science has been reached.
Try the great experiment that was proposed in WWII and mix sawdust with ice. They proposed building a large ship out of that combination. Maybe mix some fiber used in concrete with water, freeze it and see how it does under the press. Great videos.
It's called pykrete, they already did a video about it a few years ago
Project Habakkuk!
Pykrete. Itâs actually super easy to make. Just freeze some sawdust in water. It can deflect bullets and melts super slowly.
@@mal2ksc Mythbusters did something like this years ago.
It's snice!
Here's a press idea btw: making espresso using the hydraulic press - usually done with 9 bars, maybe you can make espresso in milliseconds ;-)
tamp the puck with the press too, if it's the right kind of portafilter.
I like this idea
I smell a James Hoffmann collab.
It happened!
To get transparent ice you need to be able to evacuate the air somehow from the snow sample. What you did is indeed an approximation of how a glacier is formed (tl;dr: snow under pressure compacts), but in nature (and in a freezer) the air is freely escaping the snow (then firn, then ice) as it melts and refreezes over many years. Thus no air bubbles left to mess with light. If you manage to create some kind of valve so that the air escapes instead of being compressed into the final product you might be able to create blue ice.
Is there a way it could be done under a vacuum?
And using a tool with an o-ring on it just keeps the air from escaping. It'd be better not to have the o-ring.
To simulate the glacier, you'd need to leave the pressure on for a long time at below freezing temperature.
@@markedis5902 I'm guessing from the question being asked in a CZcams comment section that you don't know how to use the internet to find answers for yourself. I'm also guessing you either had low academic standards in whatever school system you were in and didn't have to take physics or you didn't learn anything in it.
Snow is frozen water vapor. Under a vacuum, it phase changes into vapor. Essentially gas. You'll never get clear ice from snow. Too many voids. You only get it from water.
@@Trebuchet48 a glacier goes through freeze thaw cycles. It doesn't compact from pressure. So it isn't an accurate simulation to simply compress it.
Glacier ice is fizzy
You made a glacier with the press, that's a fascinating idea. Very well done, thank you for the great content as always!
I came here to say this! But also blue glacier ice, i wonder if that could be created!
You've made the ultimate snowball maker! The snowball to end (and win) all snowball fights. Basically the nuclear bomb of snowballs. đ±đ
@EvilAsh110 But this doesn't leave any evidence to prove you cheated.
I'm telling mom!!!
A snowchugger is the nuclear equivalent.
I've just found this channel so I've been watching all the videos from the past 5yrs and really enjoying them! I love you 2 together, you're so cute and funny! The content is very interesting/entertaining and you guys just make it that much better!
There's 1 thing: I loved the "extra content" clips you used to do at the end of each video where you'd tell a funny story about why the little play dough figure was a threat and needed to be dealt with then smush it flatđ wish you still did that!
HPC is all one needs to know about Finland, of course, but may I suggest "Anni Vuohensilta" for a different look at the cultural side of things. Yes, it's that Anni. Make sure you pester her in the comments about bringing back Finland Friday...
Some of their best stuff is on their second channel called "Beyond the Press". Explosions, fire, experimental destructive tools.
Bro I canât imagine not having this channel on my life for the last 5 years
The reason it appears white after being smushed is because well... Air. Air causes refraction within the ice, and if there are many tiny bubbles of air within it, it appears white. Plus what you made basically is compacted snow lol.
I love way he consistantly says "That is all for today, thank you for watching, and have a nice day" it's like music!
Wow, am I only one noticed how improved video quality now? I can feel depth now.
Merry Christmas guys, love to see you are well.
glad to see you still doing what you enjoy although i will always miss today's extra content. :)
Same but they said the time taken to make wasn't worth the number of people who actually watched till the end
Your Experiments/Tests are very interesting, thank youđ

The following is a true story.
I had a professor in college who would get the ice cores that his colleagues took from glaciers once they were done studying them. He would save them in his freezer and would put the pieces in his drinks. Because of the high pressure air bubbles in the pieces they would pop and fizz and make (as you said) "micro explosions."
One day my professor had his mom at his house and, he gave here a drink with these such pieces of ice due to their interesting nature.
He said to his mom, "what do you think about the fact that the ice in your glass is 20,000 years old?" To which she replied, "Is it still good?"
Most 'mom' question you can think of.
Given the amount of stories you hear about scientists finding old viruses dormant in glaciers that's a pretty good question ngl
Happy to see and hear your wife back I have always looked at this channel as a 2 person team you and your wife.Its good that she took a break and did some other stuff for a while but happy she is back :)
Excellent, remember it takes thousands of years for ice cores, but you demonstrated the principle. Lovely to hear Annie's laughter again
Could you try to crush UHPC (ultra high performance concrete)?
It's a concrete with silica fume instead of sand/stones and micro rebars. It's about 10 times stronger than regular concrete and 3-4 times stronger than the concrete used in the Burj Khalifa.
»Snow is ice sand«
... I think we got some really good philosophers here
From what I've heard about ice cream, because they sell it by volume and not by mass, the cheaper brands will have a lot of air whipped into it during production whereas the more expensive brands will not. So if you have a lot less ice cream after pressing, you know you have a cheaper brand.
Are you able to get dry ice? A mix of dry ice and water ice might do something interesting.
Youâre crushing snow like certain people have my dreams đ€Ł
Sorry same has happened to me but I just have to try again..
I recall there are different types of ice, like Ice II and III and that they have different properties and creation conditions, I wonder whether you created one of those.
By some calculations based off an estimate of the tube diameter, I get a pressure of about 238 MPa. Cross referencing a water phase diagram chart - maybe! Depends on the temperature of the water, and the "conditions".
Nice demonstration "Mr. Freeze", its amazing!
But can you crush solid ice? Make the bottom of the tool waterproof, then fill it with water, and then take it outside to freeze solid. Will you be able to compress it?
If you compress ice it turns to water, that's how ice-skates work.
Lauri and Anni y'all rock! Love the channel and content! I love ice sand! Lol. Peace
Snow turns into a kind of ceramic! Wild đžâ€ïž
Happy Holidays HPC đȘđ»đȘđ»
5:20 - OMG the look on his face when he realized what he said was hilarious.... I feel like this could be a new PAAP song but w/ Snow and Sand + Ice and Rocks. đ€Łđ€Ł
The high pressure ice air bubbles were really cool.
"it didn't do shit." Lmao
Cool glacier in the press.

Did I miss one?
We missed the perfect opportunity to call ice snowstone đ
I was surprised by the color. I thought it would come out looking more transparent then that.
Insert ice cream.
150 tons later:
ICE CREAM !!
Good to see the boss again.
This is the CRAZIEST channel to which I subscribe. Totally addictive. Personable, fun, presenters (Love the accent!).
Canât. Stop. Watching đ .
Happy to see new sponsors instead of established titles which seems as dodgy as kamikoto. Keep up the great content đ.
2:35 hey! pretty nice! tervasterpostopartarsterol!
When pressing with an outrigger of a mobile crane i turn snow into rock solid ice every day during the winter and that's only like 50-60ton max load per outrigger.
"You can't tamp espresso grinds too hard" i hear the experts say, i would like to see that tested.
The ice will melt under the pressure, the compressed air dissolves into the water.
After releasing the pressure the water recrystallizes and the air comes out of solution, forming lots of tiny bubbles.
and snow is not ice-sand.
snow is a symmetric crystalline growth formed while suspended in air.
Sand is ground down rock of around 2mm and below size.
these two are not the same
Killjoy
The hardest snowball ever made.
I feel like it was roughly as hard as the ones my older brother used to throw in my face...
Man, he pressed those suckers *Hard.*
@@The_Keeper I know what you mean. I had flashbacks from just typing my original comment.
Congratulations, you made your own mini glacier
Im slightly surprised it didn't just melt
Perfect snowball maker machine
Honestly, I really thought that the Icecream would change more.
I mean, one of the things that makes a good Icecream is that there are tiny airbubbles whisked into it...
Also, Pro-tip;
If you want to give your homemade icecream a better chance of coming out creamy and easy to use, even straight from the freezer.
Whisk some cream-cheese into the cream.
I made a killer chese-cake inspired vanilla icecream with streak of rhubarb syrup embedded in it (tastes better than it sounds) that way.
something nobody has pointed out yet is how much crazy amount of bend there is in the steels of the press. Those thousands of tons don't seem much but look at that thick steel bend.
Yes, it's opaque because of the trapped air inside.
Very cool đđ»
I love the camera gals nails đ
i like how you did the nord sponser
I was too busy watching things blow up to actually listen to Lauri talk about NordVPN but I'm sold because EXPLOSIONS
Snow needs a few cycles of melt thaw to become ice, not just pressure, what you have is compressed snow with a little ice where it heated up. Your analogy of ice sand is good
Sometimes you get that kind of ice on the roads where busses and trucks drive and both compress it and polish it and it's some of the slipperiest ice there is. Especially if there is a thin layer of cold snow on top
"Hey... stop" best line
Wow, you actually got me to not skip the Nord ad.
Hydraulic press made snowball fight!!
With an air cannon!!
Even the advert was worth watching đâïž
Snow under high pressure over longer time, with some way of keeping the tools cold, like having them in a basin of liquid nitrogen while the keep a constant high pressure.
Yes. Something like 100 000 years.
Yeah drinks cooled with million year old glacier ice from Antarctica sounds like that. Sometimes the ice "cubes" explode.
Good, now make 50 more of these as an ammunition for the most hardcore snowball (scratch that) snowcillinder fight
As I recall they made an air cannon a few years back. To bad its so difficult to film outdoors this time of year
That's the "snowball" that one kid used to throw back in the day. During snowball fights
I was thinking how nice making this episode must have been because there's no cleanup for once aside from drying stuff off, and then my man pulled out the ice cream.
Never thought about it, but snow is similar to sand. Thankfully, when it drifts, it does eventually melt.
There are several highpressure modifications of water ice cristal.. maybe u can try an precooled highpressure vessl with ~ 1cm dia. And very strong steel :)
Wiki says: Ice II is a rhombohedral crystalline form of ice with a highly ordered structure. It is formed from ice Ih by compressing it at a temperature of 198 K at 300 MPa (=3000bar= 3Tons/cmÂČ) or by decompressing ice V. When heated it undergoes transformation to ice III.[1] Ordinary water ice is known
as ice Ih
Have you made different types of rocks, shapes and types those?
Nice video. You can also try dry ice
This man should narrate a movie
If you hold the snow under pressure for some time it will be more likely to become clear because of how ice melts when compressed then returns to a frozen stare when pressure is released
The way it broke apart reminds me of a glacier
I love this experiment!
Wish I could experience snow someday...
Compressed Snow = ICEBERG
Snow is slowly crushed by thousands of tons of pressure over centuries, something you can't really replicate in a press.
Should have used a thermal tester before and after crushing. I suspect that after the crush it is warmer than before
Perfect for my shave ice machine!!!
different color nail polish for the Ice to Ice segment!
So would salt make salt rock crystals? As a bonus you could sell them for their "healing properties" :D
Glaciers ice also pops while it melts.
Good to see Annie back for a Cameo
Totally none of our business, but it would be fun to know if Anni's break was a bet over channel... Annilytics.
"Ice in the tube" is the new "fire in the hole"!
Have you all made âSnow Creamâ before? Here in the Southern US, when it *does* snow, my grandmother would make it. So good!
Make "snowballs" for a potato gun. Use a mold so they will just fit. It should compress them enough to withstand ignition.
I love Anniâs green and pink claw paint đ
Lauri made the HARDEST snowball ever, but in cylinder shape. Now we need a round snowball maker 5000000 for the hydraulic press XD
We learned snow is ice sand AND ice cream is immune to a hydraulic press
That ice probably tastes hella crisp
I think you need to keep the pressure on for a lot longer
SNOWBALL FIGHT!!
*News Reporter:* there were no survivors
This should definitely work... I've smashed snow into ice with my bare hands before.
I think the ice cream doesn't do anything because ice cream is fluffed and contains some percentage of air, like 30-50% is air and isn't air incompressible under high pressure with nowhere else to go, the hydraulic press is somewhat a sealed system when doing it.
don't have a snowball fight with this guy
Make more popping/crackling ice and put it into water. Also mix solid CO2 with snow/ice and then press it. Maybe it makes super popping ice.
Glacier/Blue Ice os formed when solid ice is compressed, I wonder what would happen if you took a solid block of ice, sealed in in the metal container, and add a bunch of weight, will it turn bluer?
Ice-cream is indestructible.
