Hey
nice april fools
Nice
What if Peter tried breaking bullet proof glass?
Ummm bro ur so funny in real life id like to see more videos like this. My challenge for him is to try to freeze something in dry ice
That's really nice to bring more variety to the channel. Im excited for more of these!
Thank you! Glad to hear you liked the different type of content from us!
Looking forward to more of these too.
@@WhatIfScienceShow can you do a what if Vibranium existed in real life video?
@@WhatIfScienceShowCan you do more of this vlog type vids
5:39 😂I love how you blurred it out and then at 6:01 didn’t even care 😂
“What if The planets switched places?”
Nothing interesting you just die
Equally likely
Oh hell na-
Bro is 9 year old
We’re dead!
A longer version of this video that showed what you used to get the rare elements and also take the opportunity to educate where you can find such elements and what we use them in. For example you can find rhodium in your cars catalytic converter
Yes. I was gonna say the same thing
I think your are right but i pick Jewelry😢
But can you separate it from platinum and palladium?
As someone who is taking Chemistry 2 in college rn and driving me crazy this was very cool to watch !
Woah! That is quite a reaction to an egg & cheese sandwich, it was only in his mouth for miliseconds 🤣🤣
I love this video!! ❤❤️
Edit: I love seeing him say it in real life, "Well, that's another story, for another... WhatIf." 13:13
Hi,
I have a suggestion, you can recreate the solar system planets in smell (make baloons filled with gases smells like the planets and make them revolves around a fire ball)
Yup that's awesome
So for Uranus he would have to get rotten egg gas? And plus, he would have to gather the smells of 8 billion+ people (of course, in extremely small amounts) to make the planet earth. Sounds harder than getting uranium or something in a box. But I still like the idea. Creative!
Uranus
only issue is that the sun isn't exactly a fireball, it's more like a nuclear reactor, there are planets that have no atmosphere, there are planets like Venus that immediately after breathing the air you would die painfully, there are planets that are made of gas, and only a small solid nucleus, like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, not to mention that they would be out of proportion, they are not at the same distance as in the drawings. also you couldn't smell the gases inside the balloons. nice idea, but I don't know how one could do that. you may get mars and earth, the rest is nearly impossible
6:01
For those who are wondering what the cereal brand it was, it's avoine croquante
“That’s dangerous!”
Ima use my Own $500
“Deal that’s a perfect idea”
Thorium can be found in lantern mantels, Americium and be found in smoke detectors, Plutonium can be found in old Soviet smoke detectors, uranium ore can be bought for cheap online. These are some of the elements that you couldn’t find.
Uranium is actually not too expensive, so yeah.
having all of the elements in the periodic table is nearly impossible, unless you have a superpowerful nuclear fusion machine that can create the heaviest elements. The heaviest elements in the periodic table is only be created in lab or in the high energy cosmic events like supernovae, hypernovae, kilonovae and gamma ray burst
So…. seaborgium, einsteinium, krypton, ect?
@@adamstanton5313krypton is found in the air
Its not that rare and its also only the 36th element
Bro forgot about Americium which is usually *FOUND* in older smoke alarms
For Helium, he sets down an empty balloon with no Helium in it. Brilliant.
I love this! What If will never cease to amaze me and the world =D
"I'd be dead."
Sure came close from that sandwich. ☠️
I like this idea for a change! What If vids are now just getting better
Great episode. Love the change
Hats off for ur hardwork man!!!
I have to say i loved this style video. Most interesting vid on the channel in quite some time
there's more nitrogen in the air than oxygen. well there are videos where people who had the budget actually got the pure elements. also, you could've use graphite for carbon which is quite literally just carbon. anyways, nice video.
also there is a commercial version of this, that has those elements and more in their pure form
This is an amazing content! Kudos whatif team!
Americium is one of the few radioactive elements many people have in their homes. You can find it in some smoke detectors. Im not sure if theyre legal in Canada since they’ve been proven to be not super effective (theyre the kind of smoke alarm that goes off when you burn toast), especially given in the last 5 or so years we’ve tried phasing them out here in the US.
I love the Periodic table 😂❤
0:46 the point where you start collecting radioactive elements.
Technetium then.
Tip: Americium can be found in smoke detectors, and thorium in some lamp mantles
Please do a longer version detailing how you got each element
so this is you attempting that old video about what would happen
Hello, love your videos i always love watching your videos! ❤️
Glad you like them! Thank you for watching
This is one of the best WhatIf videos ever!
This was actually really enjoyable
Love this. I am going to try with my children who are homeschooled. Very fun❤
Love it very much!! Awesome ❤❤❤
Thank you for your support!
Some more research might have disclosed the presence of various elements on hand or obtainable at reasonable cost. Somw time on Wikipedia produced 16 potential sourcces:
Catalytic converters usually contain palladium, rhodium, platinum, or cerium, so a reference to a car would probably acquire one of those.
Americium is used in smoke detectors.
Tungsten can be found in permanent magnets, incandescent bulbs, cathode ray tube filaments, and integrated circuits (computer chips).
Hafnium can also be found in Intel and IBM chips.
Vacuum tubes, if you can find one, will usually have a barium residue on the interior resulting from the manufacturing process. It is used to chemically remove the last reactive gases within the tube. Spark plugs also often contain a barium-nickel alloy.
The most likely sources of cesium would be a two-electrode vacuum tube, an OCR reader, or a video camera tube.
Toyota used lanthanum batteries in the Prius, so if if you had access to one of those, you could refer to the battery.
electronic
Pepto-Bismol contains bismuth.
Europium is used in fluorescent bulbs.
Terbium can be found cathode ray tubes.
Erbium is used in camera filters.
YoungMendeleev: One day, I will put all the elements together!
Chemistry Teacher: You can't put all the elements together.
Younh Mendeleev: Challange accepted!
Every time I see your notifications without what if in the front I read it as what if I built my own periodic table
"What if R136A1 was our sun"
"What if you travelled to the boomerang nebula"
Love your videos Man
Loved this video
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
You should be able to find americium in some smoke detectors, uranium in vintage yellow or green glassware or in small traces in granite, and thorium in vacuum tubes.
What if Peter and all what if crew went to wilderness for a week with just knife and flint? :D
Haven't watched the video yet but I'm guessing he got most of the elements, excluding the radioactive ones
For rare earth metals, your Iphone or a CD/DVD would cover a lot of them.
I actually had a piece of lead at hand. If you have a car whose catalytic converter contains platinum, you're OK with that, too.
For polonium, you may go either to the National Library of France or to any uranium ore mine. The same applies for any element of the uranium-radium decay chain, Np and even Pu.
For Am, Cm and even Cf you may visit the NASA.
Above 100, if you work in the GSI Helmholtz Centre (in Darmstadt, Germany), that would make things somewhat easier.
If you go to Chernobyl you may get some radioactive stuff, too. It has become considerably harder though, with the outbreak of the war.
Mendeleev's periodic table was based on the fact that The properties are a periodic function of their atomic mass while the periodic table we study is based upon the MORDEN PERIODIC LAW, which is the chemical and physical properties of elements are the periodic function of their atomic numbers (And was given by Moseley in 1913 from his x rays studies).
Seeing you for the first time is awesome
12:35 Tasted like sponge
What if peter did the Michelson-Morley experiment? LOVE YOU
"It's like chewing a rubber band"
😂😂😂
You ok?
What if the geographic layout of earth was flipped? Here me out; what if the oceans on earth were gigantic landmasses and the current land continents were all oceans- everything still having the same shape outline as the maps we know today? would life have developed differently and would it have affected the course of human history if the same timeline of emergence was still the same?
i wanted to elaborate a tad more by factoring in the emergance of human life
I wanted to thank the What If channel Ford Cruising my question for one of their shorts. I feel very very honored as a fan you have inspired his inverted topography short
Nice try , 68 out of 118 elements. Man i m imagining the effort you made is 🔥🔥🔥
5:38 I am probably way more happy to see this than most people are.
You’ve missed some elements:
Antimony in ball bearrings
Palladium in ceramic capacitors(inside of computers)
Lanthanum, cerium, and praseodymium in the flint of lighters
Neodymium in neodymium magnets
Molybdenum in saw blades
Lead in some soldering wires you don’t need to use bolts as representations btw
Uranium and thorium can be found in tiny trace amounts in granite and cement
Europium, gadolinium, terbium, and dysprosium can be found in phone screens, you missed 2 of them
Americium can be found in most smoke detectors
Ytterbium is sometimes mixed in stainless steel to make stainless steel pipes and other high quality product that use stainless steel
You could’ve got 81😑
What if there was a working portal between Earth and a rogue planet (you can always switch side)?
The dude didn't even take a full bite. Lol
Americium is easy to obtain, its used in standard home smoke detectors.
Americium (Am) is easy to get, used in smoke detectors. Uranium-containing rocks are also in gem stores and emit mostly alpha radiation which is easily shielded. Bismuth is found in Pepto Bismol, which may help after that egg sandwich..... ;-)
"so that's what we're going to try today!" gets to uranium
Peter is so adorable!!❤
I'm finding it hard to find Urianium and Plutonium (FBI watchlist activated!)
Yea that is radioactive elements
@@user-dz9zt4eb7y I doubt you can actually get your hands on significant quantities of these elements... or at least I hope so!
This was. Really good lol
You do know Americium is found in some smoke detectors, however if you don’t have a smoke detector, I feel bad because you could’ve gotten Americium. Like you could’ve just gotten the smoke detector down and BOOM, ya got Americium-241. Idk if I have a smoke detector either, but hey. We all get through a lot of chaotic and weird situations and that is okay, also uhh here’s how I would make my table.

Fermium to Oganesson: Will just be things that the elements were named after
Anything past Polonium, I’ll figure out myself. But before Polonium, try to like suggest something.
you could possibly buy an iodizing smoke alarm (which has americium in it) or just get one from your home if you have one
Some elements he missed
Polonium: record player brush
Uranium: ultraviolet minerals
Americium: smoke detectors
Thorium: welding rod
Californium: metal detectors
Selenium: dandruff (possibly)
I think he purposefully missed them because they're dangerous
I love this but I wish they said which foods and other things they found had which elements, even if it was just really quick .... It would have been great to show my kids as they're studying the table right now, but I felt they barely showed anything.
Uranium Glass and Ceramics also smoke detectors have americium and thorium in old lantern mantles and welding rods
Alternate title (trying to get elements that no one has in there home to not eat a egg cheese sandwich)
I already bought one, it has elements in their box things.
"What if humans had wings"
"What if humans couldn't laugh or cry"
"What if fire wasn't invented"
"What if soda wasn't invented"
"What if wheel wasn't invented yet"
"What if the gravitational power increased by 30% for 5 seconds"
you could have got 15 more elements with neodimium magnets, because they contain all the lantanides.
Gotta catch em' all!
is it possible to build my own periodic table, with an actual sample of every element embedded in side the table?
Nope
No, if you have plutonium at your house, you’ll also be meeting up with FBI
Cover whole table with dirt and cover it witha glass wall.All elements are covered in earth and air..
6:40 Bones!
9:06 I believe it’s 90
The Bingo of the periodic table elements.
What if "What If man Peter" eat food without salt and sugar for a year ??? 😏😏😏
0:15 "Something you can touch and feel" Touching uranium...
its nice seeing a irl vid
What If: Periodic Table Real Life could be very dangerous! Also What If: IMA MAKE A REAL LIFE PERIODIC TABLE
I collect the elements of the Periodic Table. I will only be going up to.#83 Bismuth. Right now I have 30.
you could have got molybdenum in legumes root since molybdenum is required for nitrogenase activity.
Love what if❤❤❤
It is awesome 🎉👍🏻
That’s amazing 🎉
americium can be found in smoke detectors. and the americium decays into neptunium, which counts. theodore gray has a whole page for elements in walmart if that helps.
or how about what if peter introduce all team members of what if
He did
Just started cant wait to see francium
I didn't know Bill Gates have a set periodic table elements in his office 😮😮
6:31 You are in Canada? I didn’t know this was a Canadian channel.
That was a good video!
What if Reptilians could breathe underwater?
Who says they can't?
@@eeveeofalltrades4780 I do
5:56 which element did you *destroy* here
I wish you can build a whole periodic table next time 😌
ogassenon: 👉👈
U cant so u just have to represent it.
Bro how do you get oganesson
HOW DO YOU MAKE FRANCIUM LAST FOR LONG ENOUGH FOR THIS TO WORK
Tennessine’s most stable form lasts 80 milliseconds before decaying to moscovium. How is that gonna work?
New idea: what if all the elements in the periodic table combined?
What if we evolved from dinosaurs?
Okay if Peter disliked just cheese you could assume it was due to lactose intolerance. On the other hand if Peter disliked just eggs you could assume he just might be vegan which would also explain the cheese too as vegans dislike anything that comes from animals in any form. Perhaps the next time Peter is given a consequence if he fails like he did this time it ought to be a choice between a frying pan size egg and cheese omelette consumed completely instead of being thrown up after just a tiny bite or put it into a blender and liquefy it into an egg and cheese smoothie to drink down in one continuous gulp. As for an episode idea for a what if how about a what if humans never evolved? What would take humanity's place as the dominant life form and what would it evolve into both physically and intellectually?
What if star like Alpha cenuturi A was compressed into 15 kilometre in diameter
Will it become a black hole?
I- im sorry that i laughed so bad when u ate the sandwich
