Snatch Block!
I want to take a moment to thank those of you who support Smarter Every Day on Patreon. I'd also like to point out 2 things about this video.
#1. You'll notice Jeremy Fielding is in this video. He's the "Contraption Fabricator" that's started working with me now because of your support on Patreon. He's a great designer, father, and friend. You'll be seeing more of Jeremy around thanks to those who support at www.patreon.com/smartereveryday/
#2. If you'd like to 3D print the Snatch Blocks and pulleys we use in this video they are here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4022579
#3. I really enjoy KiwiCo and I think you will too. I got them as a Christmas gift for my children years ago, and it was a huge hit. It was after that experience that I reached out to their team and asked if I could advertise for them because of how good it was for our family. I think you'll enjoy it too. www.kiwico.com/smarter
It was 3 things... I ended up pointing out 3 things.
I think showing the LENGTH of the rope you pulled with 2 pulleys v.s. 1 pulley will explain everything much better. It took me forever to finally understand. Maybe I am just an idiot.
Edit: It's like going 10mph(force) for 2 hour(rope length) vs. going 10mph(force) for 1 hour (rope length). You get more out of it. That's how I understood it anyway.
You also have to remember when setting one of these up that the max you can lift/ pull is the weight limit of the cable or pully
Hey man, all your videos are fascinating! Thanks!
I carry rope and carabiners while hunting to set up pulley systems to get large game up steep inclines. The input end also helps me climb up at the same time. Carabiners have much more friction, so they hold the load in place better.
Destin, You could have used a third scale, that would be holding the other end of the rope, the one that is fixed and does not move.
Also, It is very interesting how the flatten unfolded multi pulley was not moving uniformly, indicating each disc excreted different force. It would be interesting if you replace it with separate pulleys each one holding separate weight (all weight would be with equal mass).
People are really going to be really impressed when I bring snatch blocks to the gym.
This comment is underrated
It's more funnier when you can make a video of it
Love it
What did you max out on
Your comment is double entendre comedy gold.....well played sir

Was it just me or did his accent get stronger when working with the old guy.
Yes, hahahahha
People's voices and accents change depending on who and how they're communicating to/with
Or you picked up on it more b/c the other guys accent was thicker so your ear became more tuned for it.

because all you need is a "yeeehaa!"
A rule of thumb we always used for figuring out mechanical advantage for rope rescue systems was, if the pulley (or snatch block) is moving with the load, it is providing a mechanical advantage. If it is not moving with the load (i.e. it is attached to an anchor point not a part of the load) it is only providing a change of direction.
Yes this is true. Good way of thinking about it
This is how I learned it when setting up a homemade lat pulldown in my gym. You don’t want the system to give you advantage you just want it to offer resistance in the desired direction.
You also can’t afford having 2 to 1 ratios of distance. You want the weight to move 1 to 1 what your arms are doing. Otherwise you would have to double the weight to counter the advantage you’re getting. Gym equipment is, of course the opposite intention of many pulley hoisting applications.
9:08 so does this mean when they pulled themselves there was no mechanical advantage...as the pulley was fixed
@@HalleyRaiI was thinking the same
I think in this case because the winch is moving with the load it accomplishes the same thing.
Yes pulleys are amazing but always remember the safe working limit of your cable / line / rope / strop etc quickly becomes the governing factor. Great production by the way, makes learning stuff fun !
Shouldn't matter much, As you get more blocks in the load your line load reduces. If you have a 4:1 setup then your total load is divided by 4 and that's how much is on each line.
So if you want to lift 1000 pounds a straight pull is of course 1000, a single traveling block causing a 2:1 pulley is 500 on each line as well as a 2:1 mechanical advantage so it both cuts the line load in half and doubles the pulling force, a 3:1 does the same its 3 times the pulling force and line load is cut into 3 so you are at 333 pounds per line. If you want to get real complicated you can factor in the angle at which each line is at and that chances the numbers as the farther from 90 degrees or parallel lines the less mechanical advantage and the less line reduction you have.
@@towtruckaj but you still have the line lifting a 1000lb object at the end of the day
@@ionbusman2086 not really, with my 4:1 for example you are effectively turning 1 line into 4, so it’s really one long line that runs through a bunch of blocks but it acts as if there were 4 because both your mechanical advantage and line load are effected, for each moving block in a perfect world you get double the pulling force and line load is cut in half, so for a 4:1 moving 1000 pounds you would need to pull with 250 pounds of force and each line would have 250 pounds of force on it, so to move 1000 pounds a 250 pound rated rope would work. It’s fairly simple until you start getting into the angles of the blocks and compounded pulley setups.
So yes in short the object weight doesn’t change you are still lifting 1000 pounds, but with pulleys you can move that weight with a lot weaker equipment and a lot less force.
@@towtruckaj But where the line ties to the 1000lb object, that's the weak point
@@ionbusman2086 what you are describing isn’t a proper mechanical advantage setup, to achieve mechanical advantage the blocks have to be on be load, if you have just one line actually attached to the load no matter how many blocks you have unless it’s a compound setup you don’t have mechanical advantage, for my 4:1 example you would have 2 snatch blocks on the actual load and 4 lines 2 for each block. What you could do if you could only attach one line to the load is have one heavy piece of rigging rating for the full forces then you could compound it and apply mechanical advantage to that one line, so like a 1000 pound cable sling with 250 lb rated rope in a 4:1 connected to that cable.
I was genuinely surprised when his sponsor wasn't snatch block
Snatch block doesn't even need to buy sponsorships at this rate lol
But why he uses about 50 times the brand name snatch blocks from all the pulleys in the world. Just wondering...
I was just waiting for it to cut to Ron Popeil so he could tell me how many monthly payments it costs.
That’s exactly why i came to the comment section
SNATCH BLOCK!
I would have died if the sponsor was SnatchBlock.
It so was
I was SO waiting to hear the sponsor too! They better give him something for this free commercial! LOL
I'm only 8 minutes in, and now I'm disappointed.
it a type of pully, not a company
My girlfriends mother is a snatch block
Hey Destin, I bought some Snatch Blocks after this video came out (Same ones you used). Never used them but I got to today! We used a double snatch to lift up a heavy piece of furniture up some stairs. Only knew how to do it because of this video.
Your enthusiasm for science and engineering is contagious! We've got snatch blocks on our wish lists now! We have also loved kiwi crates, my oldest spends hours building and playing with the awesome things they send her. Thank you for your video.
Destin : This are like, my most favorite thing in the world.
Laminar flow : am I a joke to you
I thought of it
Kaustubh Manchekar NO I DID!!!
He said one of my most.

Destin : This are like, my most favorite thing in the world
His children: are we a joke to you
"Yo dawg, I hear you like pulleys."
Never knew I needed to hear that today.
Destin is an OG memer
"I attached a pulley to a pulley so you can pull while you pull"... well, it does make sense.
I am so happy I was recommended this by CZcams. This guy was fun, I loved the interaction with his kids, and all the visuals and everything about the way he teaches! The snatch block was awesome and now I’m thinking how I can use something like this at my construction job!
This was very, very informative and enlightening. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate all key facets of pulley utilization, and the mechanical leverage advantage that is achieved. It's also good to see Jeremy, as I have watched a great many of his videos (if not all!) on electrical motors (he's genius). Thank you for putting this out. God Bless.
“Yo dawg, here’s your warship” is probably the best thing I’ve ever heard said on this channel
I felt like I was watching a really long advertisement for a product called snatch block
this brought me back to elementary school, we had some great teachers there.
It’s like snatch block and oxy clean/flex tape had a baby.
snatchblock!
If only all advertisements were this informative and interesting!
Tired of not being able to pull stuff up?? SNATCH BLOCK!
I love how you transmit your enthusiasm about understanding how things work, great work!
Jeremy is extremely smart and a great teacher. You are as well. Thanks for sharing your videos with the rest of us!
“Any day you can use a snatch block is a good day”
I strive to be this optimistic about everything lmao.
Yeah I know. He's like, "Yay! I got my Jeep stuck. Where's my snatch block?"
"you cant push a rope"
well after a bottle of whiskey, im still gunna try
Thata boy.
I pushed six ropes yesterday. They were on the outer edge of a shelf and I pushed them further back in. Pretty awesome, huh?
@@kittyhawk7060 Calm down, Satan.
Geez Louis.

Clearly you’ve never tried Viagra.
Man, your video brought a wide smile to my face this evening. Your enthusiasm just makes me so happy. The best part? I had never been able to *really* understand pulleys, and your video helped quite a bit. Your video just made my day.
Snatch block!
Hey Destin. I just used the "snatch block" technique with a come-along to get my tractor un-stuck from a pile of manure. THANK YOU for saving me from having to dig it out the poo! You really saved me.
I love how dustin’s accent magically reappears when talking to other southerners.
From my personal experience that happens more or less per instinct and you have to 'snatch out of it' as an active decision.. 🤓🧐
Lol I’m from the Midwest west and I work for a company that does work all over the country and for whatever reason I start to talk like that when speaking with that southern accent on the phone. 🤣 no idea why lol. Same when I hang out with my hick friends 😆 I say creek but when hanging with them it turns into crick lol
I'm from Louisiana and people ask me if I live on the east or west coast, it's so weird
I used to live in the super deep south, but I've since moved to the Midwest. Sometimes I catch my southern accent coming out when I generally don't speak with one.

Laminar flow: am I a joke to you ?
Punches : am i joke to you?
His OTHER favorite thing.
A rope's flow around a pulley is laminar.
first, thank you. your willingness to share the power of knowledge is much appreciated. So, years ago, we had a tow truck (an old P.T.O unit with a twin boom system) that we called the "School Marm". So named because on the side door of the equipment locker was the mathematical calculation required for that tow truck to right a capsized battleship. A single, dual line wrecker that weighed in at about 14,000 pounds and delivered maybe 250 horsepower carried the mechanical power to drag a hypothetical battleship, that would weigh in at more than 40,000 tons, back to an upright position, made possible by the mechanical advantage of the mundane pulley.
Well, that's my story. And i am sticking to it. Aloha.
40,000 tons?
This is awesome and something I'll be incorporating to the back of my ute canopy to lift heavy things onto the back. Just what I needed months ago when I lifted something too heavy and herniated a disc. Live and learn! Thanks for the great video
I love how Destin's accent thickens so much when around other Alabamians
They walk in herds... They do walk in herds.
CODESWITCH: ENGAGE
Code switching. We all do it.
We do that literally all the time, I think the southern accents are fake because we only sound like that when talking to other Southerners. Also some won't take you seriously if you don't sound like that
"I should get back to mah truck" - 16:27
You must respect the wires under tension. If they snap, they can kill.
just like Thanos do
Ok Can’t blame u if I want to shoot me lol
Well... Mythbusters kinda showed it's not That likely the get killed by a wire.. but never go under a load.
I noticed in the video when they pulled the jeep with the wench while it was in gear there was a blanket draped over the cable in an attempt to mitigate the force in the case that it actually did go down like that. Still a worthy note sir.
I seem to recall a video of Army engineers stepping ON the ropes of a multi-pulley setup if they had cause to traverse their setup. The reasoning being that if the rope did snap as it was crossed, the whiplash would be mediated.
I am stoked I found your fantastic channel! This was a fantastic explanation of the mechanical advantage of pulleys!
Hope you guys had a great time in Costa Rica! What a wonderful video. It "pulled" my attention all the way to the end and helped me understand the mechanics beyond just doing FBDs and writing numbers on paper.

I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciate your video, the information you provided, and the way that you presented it. I am working on a project that will require me to go the opposite "direction". I will be needing to pull a lightweight object very fast over a long distance, while pulling a short distance with a substantial power source.
Impressive video! As a wrecker operator in the Marines, commonly referred to as a "Glorified Tow Truck Driver," I've successfully navigated through some challenging situations by utilizing snatch blocks. Anyways, great content!

CZcams video: talks with slight southern accent
Talking to another Alabaman: southern accent triples in strength.
He applied some snatch block to that accent
It works that way in many places. Southern Michigan has a general midwest accent. Then when you go back up to the upper peninsula, your accent gains about 5 power levels and graduates to Yooper.
@@2009dudeman it also changes when we visit Canada.
Thats because he had SNATCH BLOCKS to triple his southern accent.

I have lost count of how many times I have watched this video over the past 3 years. I love it. I went to school for engineering so we studies this in our statics class. In an odd way, this is so much fun. In an interesting follow up to this video, how does it work if the load you are lifting is you? Say you are sitting on a board tied to a rope that goes up to a pull and the slack rope comes right back down to you. To lift yourself up, how much force to you need to apply? You are both pulling the rope down and pulling yourself up at the same time.

Matt Baker he does make learning great , but you know less then .001% of the people on earth. So always keep your mind opened to new experiences ;)
David Jr 😏.... He goe'n learn ta'day
I was literally thinking like what's the purpose of schools when this is so much more fun and I still learned a lot.
vitali the purpose of school is training for lifelong employment for corporate entities... just sayin'
Good job I love the research you put into it
Hey Destin! We used to make these at Omega Pacific where I laser etched some carabiners for you many years ago. I would've gladly sent you some of our pulleys for this! Still have some kicking around my house. Unfortunately Omega Pac closed their doors years ago and I moved on to other stuff. All the best.
"Hey mane, you got a purdy snatch block."
How I imagine people who are just a little too into pulleys meet and become friends.
A block of snatches... 😅
“sir this is a library”
SNATCH BLOCK
If I had not seen this video I would have assumed it was just another name for a chastity belt .
@@joemag6032 this comment is so underrated.
@@arielerosa3204 , oh well, later "Astrobrant2" posted a similar comment, and got several thumbs-up, so at least a few people are familiar with that old slang term.
LOL I am from Cullman, Alabama. I feel you about most always coming across people who just have “know how.” I finished assembling a cheap small 2500lb winch today (welded it to an old truck receiver).. and how I have an old disc up in the woods I gotta drag out. Only have 1 snatch block… until tomorrow haha
What a fun and educational video to watch. Love your style man!
"Using pulleys, you can sort of redirect the force."
Jedi everywhere: "Why do we suddenly hear *boss music?"*
Sweet Jones III what else isn’t funny? I’m asking cause I don’t have a sense of humor and you seem to be the only one...
"I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of pulleys suddenly attached together and were suddenly tugged."
Destin: Pulleys are my favorite thing!
Laminar Flow: 😔
Today's favorite thing.
F for Laminar Flow
He can have multiple favorite things. Like having multiple favorite children!
just LOVE your show. your approach to science and physics is phenomenal, and you are an inspiration.
I found your channel a few years ago when got into towing and had to familiarize myself with these. fantastic channel! I love every post, thank you so much
"You can't push a rope."
Pretty sure that hasn't stopped any fellas from trying tho
can't say i haven't tried to do it before
I litterally was about to write that, glad to see you beat me to it!
Hold me beer lad!
i can
Just freeze the rope and you can push it at one end, but yea no freezing
My favorite things in the whole world... except of course laminar flow!
Laminar flow isn't really a "thing". Well... yes, it's a thing, but it's not like a THING you can hold. Speaking of things you can hold, you can 3D print the pulleys we used in this video by getting the files here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4022579
Wow you just got pinned by SmarterEveryDay!!
You forgot .22lr vs glass thingies
@@smartereveryday Thanks Destin, you're right. And seeing your closing montage, SNATCH BLOCK are clearly both awesome getting to your brain. I mean, with a name like that, how wouldn't they.
Awesome to share those files. Not extremely complicated to make but cuts the learning curve if you don't have to design them from scratch.
BTW my kids discovered Kiwico thanks to you. They had so much fun with the spinning painting disc. Learning by doing. Keep it up. I love your work (and accent). Cheers from a Canadian in Switzerland.
@@svijayiitk I've just peaked!
I come back to this video every joe and then. Awesome stuff!!
This was a brilliant video and great introduction to your thread. And also your friends company! Nothing better than getting our kids, brains and hands working in unison to create things. I will definitely be checking out more of your content and hopefully getting my son too also!great job
U can clearly see the joy in his voice when he says
“SNATCH BLOCK” 😂😂 and i love it!
im gonna be saying it all day myself lol seriously though
i like how destin dials up his alabama accent when talking to jeff
Being from Tennessee but living in San Diego I do the same thing when I’m back home and I INSTANTLY noticed that.
his alabama accent went from 0 to 100 FAST
I came in here to say this.
That can happen subconsciously. I've noticed that I tend to reflect the accent of people I'm around if I'm around them for prolonged periods of time - even if I'm still living in the same place as I was before I started reflecting the accent.
My dad does the same. I dont have an accent. and he doesn't when he talks to me other people generally. until he talks to his family he reverts to a pretty hefty accent.
I watch this every year to refresh myself on this now.
Most helpful video on youtube for a guy like me
We need more channels like this 👏
"Hey what are you watching?"
*"S N A T C H B L O C K !"*
Kiddo: "it's a lot more easy"
Destin: "a lot easier"
Classic parent
An Intellectual: A lot more the easiest
CircleNoob101 I almost had a seizure trying to read that the first time.
@@cavemann_ I need a snatchblock to understand that statement easier 😅
Corrects the kids, yet later in the episode at 9:58:
Destin: "...an 8 to 1 mechanical advantage, but with less pulleys!"
Stannis: "...fewer..."
:P
That's me to everyone I know xD
I already knew about the power of pulleys, but this video explains it very well. New to off roading and in search of recovery gear.
