This guy is still alive in my heart.🙏🙏
Deyan Dimitrov ?
Grayson Plays nope
No he passed away
@@A.genai7 no he passed away
@@grayish6963 I'm just saying he passed away
CZcams should dedicate something for him
@The Real Dirty Dan i doubt i even want youtube to say anything about him.... CZcamsrs should do it
Dank Pillows51
They keep putting him on my recommendations
The Real Dirty Dan they will give him a copyright strike
highly unlikely after what yt rewind 2018 was like. They might do something praising T series since they won
Just like PewDiePie says “Legends never die”
So going to miss this guy and his DIY stuff. I think the rope making machine is one of my top favorites.
It's so weird watching him now... RIP
IKR
yeah same
I know really
Why
Rip
I was a scout leader for ten years and I have made rope by hand many, many times.I have often thought about what you have done. I guess that's the difference; I thought it; you did it. Great stuff. Thanks for the vid.
can you test how much weight the rope can hold?
Absolutely you need to do a strength test!
you'd need quite a contraption to strain that rope to failure but it would be interesting.
Yeah
Benjamin Pas-VanCauwenberge a
Russel Walker
Not really.
Tie the plastic rope to a higher quality rope, pull that through a pulley where you tie it to a weight. Keep adding weights until it breaks.
You can also use a special clamp if you're not sure a knot will hold (although, a sheet bend should do fine).
It’s a privilege to watch someone who impacted so many lives
Your talent and wisdom chalk live on in the hearts of so many
Rest in peace big man
Tb to when my friends and I would do his projects on the weekends. Rest in piece man.
Brandyn Nault do you mean peace ☮️
AJ Latta it’s quite rude to correct someone’s spelling on such a sad video
James Mantel billingham r u on ur period I was just trying to help ma’am
James Mantel billingham yeah but wtf does tb mean?
AJ Latta your like 5 how do you know what a period is
PLEASE!!!! Grant, please strength test the soda ropes in a unique way to see what kind of weight they can hold, or pull, with different gauges of ropes you made. lift weights, tow a car, swing from it like a vine, etc.
Doramius ya yayayayyayayaya
Everybody copy this comment and post it every where
Doramius I was just about suggest that. I would love to see a strength test for the various types of rope he has made. maybe he could pull a car with it?
Doramius Do it
Doramius yes I want him to tow a car
'Lets re-cap what we did here'
I see what you did there

RIP KING 😭🙏
dude! you are spoiling it for those watching in 2017!
What happened and how

Do u even English bro?
You should do a tensile strength test on the 3 different ropes!
Watch until the end
COMMENTINLY I meant a semi measurable tensile test, at least on the first rope.
I want to see this as well! Very curious about how much the strength scales up when you add another layer.
Agreed
please do, i was thinking that the whole video.
I wonder if it is possible to tow a vehicle using homemade plastic rope
strength test.
Chris McCormick I was just about to comment this
i dont see why it shouldnt, the last rope he made would be enough for a small/middle car
Chris McCormick the string itself is strong enough to pull a small car, so the rope should be more than strong enough.
AlphaMale Wolf what makes you say that
When i have kids im gonna tell them about how TKOR changed our lives .....R.I.P king ....Your legacy lives on ❤😢🌍
I hope his family is ok xx love you man
Hey guys, I'm just getting into your comments now. Late night flying back from NYC. What's all going on today?
Is there a way to make it smoother
First like
why not test the rope strength
Yeah Make a series!
How about actually making a 50 ft long rope? Would be cool to see!
Test the strength of the rope
That will probably be another video...
angel delgado well, he did. at the end of the vid.
angel delgado
I second that motion.
strength test till it breaks.
Yea, pls do it. Use dynamometer and compare its strength with normal rope's strength so we will see if it is usefull
and if possible i think making a ladder would be cool
He’s not a scientist or a engineer, he’s a living legend, a man of wisdom and love, he will never be forgotten
I have always loved his vids... Peace to him in the afterlife.
Now that's a new form of recycling; instead of throwing our bottles into dumps, streets, rivers and the like, we should repurpose them into rope. This way we'd also cut down not only on the litter and pollution, but also how much plant material we normally use to make rope.
Since it's really strong, the plastic it could also be used for leashes and stuff related to that kind of thing. I don't know why that was my first idea.
If it can hold my weight, I can hang myself with it
plastic is absolutely not suitable for clothing.. please think..how is it not gonna rip your skin apart, and how is it gonna keep you warm?
Willem - treat it with heat to soften any edges, and by insulating body heat?
SilverDirt Draws please, please..just hold a piece of plastic on your arm for 5 minutes then talk to me again about this.
Please show us how much weight these ropes can hold!!!
i agree... should test to see what kind of stress the rope can hold
tensile strength
tow a car
AsianElvis we need a strength test
redstone craft guy yes!
Not crying I promise
I wont lie about it im destroyed over this
Me either
I didn't cried. Even once. (I did)
I didn't cry once I just cried 100 times on the inside
What happened?
So glad his kids have so many videos to see how awsome this guy was
stockton walker he had kids?
@@adacicada4 4!
filiberkes Woahh..... Thats kinda sad for them 😕😢
this would actually be great for recycling old soda bottles
its not very practical because UV light breaks down plastic. so if you left it outside long enough it would eventually turn brittle and break. but then again everything breaks down eventually so maybe it could be used for something.
You right
Yeah
have you thought about a "can it rope" series?
Dakota Allison wow that would be awesome
Dakota Allison great idea!
Mythical team should patent that
cool idea
Dakota Allison "can it rope-human flesh"

Well I guess he'll always be alive on CZcams and in our hearts...
Make rope using three different colors, that way we can easily see the pattern and gage the effectiveness of the machine.
its as effective as it gets this is the same way companys make rope only on a much larger scale.
Ethan Vayman he's got a video where he does that. It's part of a series of videos about building and using this machine
Barry Fields oh alright, nvm then I'm gonna go watch the vid😂
He already did
I have an idea for a project you could make a hand gun made with wood which uses the home made cap gun powder which you made in the thunder cap video to shoot ammunition by the way i love your content they are amazing
Vedh Prashob that would be so cool
...so you are making very weak versions of guns we had 400 years ago? The only innovation you have is a quartz piezo sparker.
He’s not gone he just beat us to the finish line to heaven
I keep getting recommend his videos R.I.P.
laze air same
Saame
Its a show of respect
Make a rope with fuses. That would be awesome to see burning
ColorBlind Vegan thats kind of dangerous since the rope winding procces creates a lot of friction. it might catch fire or even explode
Alex V.D.H.
It probably won't be that dangerous if it caught fire.
Alex V.D.H. no it is a fuse
+FernTheCZcamsr Fuse contains its own oxidizer, making it very hard to put out. It would be very dangerous.
maybe if you did it at a slower rate?
The King of Random
If you decide to make more of this stuff, make a separate guide, and wax the inside of the holes. The reason it wasn't sliding properly was because of the bare wood against plastic edges. Thread is round already, but the plastic "thread" is square/rectangular, and it was catching on the wood. :)
English please...
King Kitters that was pretty clear English

Rest in peace King, long live your creations...
I know it's a bit late, but... I got a weird request: Paper Mache. I have my own recipe; 1/2 liter of water, 4 table spoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of all purpose flour, paper bond, make paste-soaked paper pulp with it and compress it. leave it to dry for several days or bake it to extract moisture. This thing is as strong OR stronger than wood. Don't trust me? Try it. Once dry this thing was able to withstand a machete blade to it. And if you add baking soda to it, it fireproofs it to a certain extent (it's already quite hard to set fire to, the baking soda makes it almost impossible). I did the tests by mystelf many years ago.
Uhhh... I am not sure anymore. If 4 tbsp of sugar vs 2 tbsp of flour of vice-versa. It's been quite awhile, but trust me. This thing is quite strong if you did it right. Paper paste with the paper mache paste is quite strong. Oh, and I have worked with this material for around a decade and have a whole body of work online to prove it.
hmm i did paper mache for 2 yrs but was not interested in this....
A. C. Rusinov sounds similar to pykrete, but solid at room temp! Cool
Landon Sarrett I have no idea what pycrete is. once dry this thing is basically like wood or stronger, but it is a bit sensitive to water. as it's still paper after all.
ok now lets remake all the ropes and test the strengths of each and I would like to see you make and test a homemade rope of a diffrent unlikely material and test the strenth of that in the video. cheers from the Dunlavy's
That's what I was thinking.
Measure the weight strength on the string, cordage and rope.
Anyone else's CZcams just keeps recommending Grants Vids😩❤️
Yh😢
Same :/
These kind of CZcamsrs Polished the art of backyard science . youtube should make a tribute post about him .
Well he's surviving the zombie apocalypse, thats for sure
Aon Muhammad zombie wall 0:
But he doesn’t have his *local hardware store* in the zombie apocalipse...
Aon Muhammad aggrre
Aw i thought this was putting soda in a rope and drinking it
What’s about Primitive technology?
I have a question: Can you make the string back into the bottle
yeah do that
technically yes efficient no easy probably not and u would need heat to melt it together
technically yes efficient no easy probably not and u would need heat to melt it together
Don Wong duh
That's a fine question. I'd say you have to weave them like a wicker basket. and then, using temperature, melt them together as Jz said. Or use clay, but you need to dry and glaze it as well. Anyways, yes, I think this possible, but the bottle will definitely look different.
We are so lucky we are living in this era of internet ...the great is always alive through his videos ...may your soul gets another purpose to return
.
This man was brilliant. His idea's will live on in all of us.
Make a rope from fishing line
eric geiser so make cable
love to see the tensile strength of all the ropes ya made!!!
The man, the myth, the legend. TKOR 💗
His vids always come in my recommended and I almost shed a tear
You should try comparing the rope with store bought rope
i love that idea
Randy Hinds he needed content for another video
Jacob Robinson yeah
weight test them and see what rating they would have at certain widths in comparison to nylon rope and 550 cord
Jacob Robinson use it to tow a truck Texas style
Mr. Thompson you should try to use nerds rope or the really long licorice pieces! That'd be a funny project
it would probably break before he even got it on the rope machine
Blaze Origins oh yeah I know haha. It's candy it doesn't have structural integrity
What is very impressive is that the final piece, well, even the intermediates, they are not coiled like the individual strings are. Very impressive.
Loved your videos as a kid ik in my heart someone who dedicated that much time to making other people happy is in a better place. Rest In Peace King
If youtubers were teachers, he will be the school's best science teacher or even one of the survival subjects in school
Whitney Loh he is so cool I wish I met him
Genesis Loh science teacher is easily vsause and survival teacher would be primitive technology
Neil deGrasse Tyson
And dantdm would do the best subject gaming
True man
Grant how about some controlled test to determine the stretch and breaking point of this plastic rope?
CZcamsr tragically dies.
CZcams recommends all his videos.
XxPhantom BoyxX people still use xxx in there name ?
How did he die, if I may ask.
@@arnelachivar6743 he went skydiving and the parachute failed to open
Thanks for teaching us how to make a homemade noose! Your a big help! :)
Try to tie that rope to an end of a car and tie another end to another end of a car, to test it's durability
Imagine if the bumpers / tow hooks break off because it's so durable.
David G. bumper would obviously ripoff but not tow hook ,i mean they have that one job
Still, it could happen.
Then he should use a tow took on one end of the bumper to the other
Please do that, please, please!
See if you are able to pull a car with that rope. Test it's toughness.
He was my first favourite youtuber loved all his creative inventions. May he rest in peace
He was genuinely so curious about everything and experimented.
You should do a tensile tensile on each rope you made starting with just the bottle string.
the10thbrown agreed
can you do a weight test of all the ropes u made so far?
Chances are it can hold multiple times as much weight as the combined total weights held of the original strings unbidden
It's 5:30 a.m. and I'm confident this is the coolest thing I'll see all day.
He truly was and still is the king
You should test the max tension each rope you've made can take, that would be interesting to know :)
looks like I'm not the only one who thought of this lol.
try to Pull a car with it!!
DO IT!
Scary Balloon Fish JUST DO IT!
yesterday you said tomorrow, so JUST DO IT!
yes
please
First video I ever watched of him.
Absolutely GENIUS!
Why not give this rope a stretch test? Such that we can know how much tension it can take
Imagine this: grant Thompson rope industries. Cool huh?
Motto: rope that is homemade is trustworthy, just like us!
Then he left us for Nate 😪😥
@@Kyle_harris lol sad
This next CZcams rewind needs to have something for all of the CZcams’s who passed away this year. Rest In Peace.
I love watching these videos even though I know I'll never do any of these projects.
For making longer ropes you should attach a cord on the guide so if it doesn't move you can pull it from afar and continue making the rope without having to move.
Also, you might want to wax your traveling block.
Or put down a bit of sheet metal, even something from soda cans would probably work to make it smoother.
Humans are so fun, 2.8 millon people like watching rope being made :D
Yes, when i was small i destroyed my toys just to try understand how they work.
3.25 million now (1/25/2018)
Dextri Promotion 4.5 million now 7/17/19
This was one of my favorite videos... he was the King
I keep being reminded about your passing. You had a big place in my childhood and you will always be in my heart. My prayers go out to your family. Rest easy man.
Do you ever watch your own videos if you forget how to make something?😂
masonvincent gortmaker no he doenst
If you were to apply heat to the rope, could you melt the plastic so it would be smooth and easier to handle? Would the rope become stronger because it is melted together or no?
I thought he could melt the ends so that they don't come apart
Wouldn't remain flexible if you did that.
Brad Campbell no weaker. Thin sheet has oriented molecules that increase tensile strength. Melting destroys orientation.
Brad Campbell how would you be able to 'weld" the ends of the string together so you could make longer ropes?
that would become a pet bottle stick lol
Truly the king👏🏽
This guy is the ACTUAL king of random.
duh
Do a video using a tension measuring device to see how much load the plastic rope can handle before it breaks.
m Kusch
I think that is a great idea! You are amazing!!!!😆
" see how much load the plastic rope can handle " "how much load the plastic rope can" "much load the plastic rope" "load the plastic " *LOAD*
Do this with copper wire and put rubber over it to make it a cable that works!
Like so he can see!
Matthew Levine copper wire is very weak, it's one of those materials that you bend it and it snaps :/
LiquidPringles Pribglr same with plastic and he did that
Then you need to use new wire. Copper becomes brittle when it is work hardened. Copper electrical wire is never hardened, and will always be soft right off of the roll.
Copper may actually be too plastic to work right here. When it bends, it has almost no appreciable spring and immediately enters the plastic deformation part of the force/yield curve. It will probably be too ductile to gather enough tension before it pulls the shuttle forward, twisting the actual rope.
Not only that, but it also snaps when you apply to much tension
I dont know how this guy made me interested in rope
Unluckily he is dead :( He was the King
Another one of grants great videos
See if your think bottle rope can pull a car
Thick*
I would assume no, but maybe 3 of the think ropes together would :D
(3 of the short ones in the thumbnail)
book pages weaved together can do that
+DudeManGuy What is your point? The amount of friction contained in the pages of 2 phonebooks (for example) when they are weaved together is obscene. Doesn't mean a rope can do it.
test the strength of the final rope. do a tension test
This man has impacted my life in many great ways and he did so many things in his time rip
His vids still help today I appreciate him and wish he was still around
Try doing weight tests for the plastic string, the ropes, and previously made ones.
Me : "I have no idea what he is doing but it's cool"
Me to
Officer Waffles same here
Watch the last two videos of this and you will know p.s the first vid is called how to make a rope mechean (forgot how to spell)
This is how plastics should be reused ♥️
hes not completely gone.hes still here in our hearts
Can you use this soda bottle cutter to turn soda cans into aluminium wire?
with a really really sharp knife yes
I mean you can probably cut a soda can with the same knife you'd cut with a plastic bottle. Aluminum cans aren't really as durable as something like solid aluminum
It'd probably dull your knife after a few cans.
Matthew Yare use a ceramic knife
Wouldn't the wire cut his hands?
you should check how muvh weigjt each can hold grant :DDDDDDDDD please
ANONYMOUS 1 what the heck is ''muvh'' and ''weijgt''???
@redstone craft guy
You know full well, and if you don't then you're the one with issues. I hope you're just being sarcastic.
Caesar Thegrandmaster I like how you instantly attack as if I insulted your ancestors. Sorry you're having a hard time, I'll let you vent on me if you like
Was about to say this.
This could be great for making hammocks , floating chairs , even outdoor mats
This is literally one of many solutions to cleaning the ocean, just take bottles and make rope, a much needed resource
Make different thicknesses of the soda bottle rope and do weight tests on them to see their durability an practically
Keep up the quality vids dude. Do you think u could make a vid doing a diy fidget spinner or your own fidget toy of some sort?
Lol why so original?
Aero tp Yeeeees
You and similar guys like you make most of us with 13 years of schooling and degrees later on- ashamed as to what contribution we have made to the world. Maybe the best we can do to honour your name is to take these ideas given free and made with lots of love, to craftsmen who can convert these to liberating modes of employment generation.
