We should call this series.
"Should we nuke it?"
Please like this so it can get to the top and Kyle can see
Then it would be "For Science" not "Because Science"

Nuclear hurricanes a fallout game concept for Florida.
For fallout 5 lol

"In the next episode of "Should we nuke it?": In the movie "The Core", we nuke the core to restart it and help earth produce a magnetic field. Would this work in real life? Let's get technical."
God please do this one.
The answer is - there's no material on earth that would allow us to access the core without getting compressed by pressure which reached 360 GPa. By comparison the toughest metals withstand MPas of pressure.
The deepest hole we've ever dug is around 12Km

Are you being ironic?
Yeah I'm pretty sure he's right handed, and doesnt draw in reverse.. then they just flip the screen.
Kyle: I'm t0TaLLy NoT a sUperVillAiN!"
Let's analyze this statement:
- Lives in a secluded, perpetually dark and gloomy lair (of sorts)
- Has multiple minions who do his bidding like reading things back to him
- Wants nobody to desire super powers and if you already have powers knows how to defeat you with science
- His Nate clone has the correct cadence but wrong tone and inflection indicating it's not fully formed but he needed a minion in a hurry
You know you're only a monologue away from being Syndrome from the incredibles Kyle we're not fooled

Ya we are on to you Kyle!
Nuke hurricanes? That's the dumbest thing I ever heard--I have to watch this.
Süshi~Vølcano your nigga Trump said this dumb shit
@@KingDarkKnight101 he did it to expose a White House leaker
Will i am a Respress
Yes he did, he said it in a private meeting to bust a leaker... and it worked.
She got found out, and resigned immediately. But you didn’t think he was serious, did you?
That’s even dumber!
Well he does seem to want to nuke something during his tenure. He has mentioned nuking lots of things from North Korea to hurricanes. I think he just loves the idea of having a lot of hot throbbing weaponry at his fingertips.
@ I absolutely did. They’re multiple things he has said and done in the past that would lead me to think that. Now do I think he actually wanted to legitimately bomb a hurricane? No. He’s dumb but not that dumb. He’s evidently cunning enough to expose a leaked so props to him lol.
If kyle stands near the hurricane will it be distracted by his luscious hair that it will eventually lose all its energy?
maybe if he had a horde of screaming superfans chasing him down with balloons in hand. That much hair plus that much static electricity should be able to accomplish great things.
Wouldn’t the hurricane stick around longer so it could majestically blow back his luscious locks?
Lol Wtf ate you guys on
john green it’s a fusion of two popular drugs.
I call it methamketamine.
Daniel Meier The hurricane will just get more energy down there *winky face*
I had a similar "coming to science" moment, but with Areogel. It boggled my mind (and still does) as to how something could be made that's mostly, literally, nothing.
16:08 - The procedure with the screwdriver was called "Tickling the tigers tail" because the margin between nothing happening and death was so slim, it was like the difference between a sleeping tiger, and waking it up.
"Tickling the dragon's tail" because if you wake it up, it will burn you. Heard it explained as a 3 dimensional sunburn where even your organs were cooked from the radiation.
"Earth is just a rock with some bio-film on it." LOL! That might be the funniest thing I've seen on this channel. Thank you for the laugh!
And its also technically correct, the best kind of correct.
With a really hot gooey center. Sounds like a spicy candy.
Kyle, when you were talking about mercury and how unexpected it was, I was reminded of the one time I got to touch a fabric made of asbestos (in class, in high school). I thought it would be rough and hard as asbestos is a mineral, but it was so soft and sleek... I was fascinated. (I think I need to say we took precautions as not to get harmed by it)
Hurricane: This ain't a scene.
USA: it's a god damn arms race
"A chicken you've slapped so hard it became cooked" sweet callback and also Kyle is the most quotable man I've ever seen in real life

America: NUKE THE STRONG WIND
American? He's not speaking of everyone on the western continents.
Even if it did work, fallout aside, the EMP released from that altitude would probably do more damage to the infrastructure than the hurricane itself
inspirationeveryday1 not out in the Atlantic. The range of an EMP is not as wide ranging as Hollywood portrays. It is dependent on altitude for certain, but the Atlantic is awfully large. Now, if by some strange quirk of physics it did work, the EMP could be countered relatively easily - and for less risk and damage than a hurricane strike. At least, if we’re comparing with actual hurricanes and their financial costs.
Well with the density of th storm clouds that would lessen it range. [Being just more atoms for it to interactive]
EMPs are only really a problem when they are stupidly high, most storms don't form at those heights [The air being too thin] and its that thin air that makes the EMP have a longer range because air acts as interference [For easy of explanation] and that is why if they are used in space or near space heights then they do a lot more damage.
@@IAmTheRealBill well this was on a type of doomsday documentary saying that the higher up the nuke is detonated the larger the diameter of the emp, I know very little about these type of things, only what I've learned from other sources and sometimes these sources may be wrong lol
@@Targe0 ah I see, that makes sense I guess , as I mentioned to Bill , I know very little on this subject aside from I've learned from other sources, so thank you both for the insight
16:45 how hard would you have to throw this person to paint a room with him
Ah, good show, as always. I'm morbidly pleased that you have some familiarity with the criticality accident that caused the death of physicist Louis Slotin in 1946.
He was working with a sphere of plutonium that would soon be called "the demon core", and manually adjusting the upper half of two beryllium reflectors with his thumb and a screwdriver, when the screwdriver slipped, and the reflector made contact, causing the core to go prompt-critical for the half-second it took Slotin to react and flip the top hemisphere of the reflector away. That half-second produced enough hard-radiation to lethally irradiate Slotin, but his swift reaction probably saved everyone else in the room from his mistake. He died while in a coma 9 days later, after several days of increasing agony before he went comatose.
The first time I ever read about this, it made me weep. Slotin was being foolish, but nobody should die like that.
An entire video discussing doomsday events, yet I can't stop watching!
Could we use a man-made Kugelblitz to move a blackhole? It'd be more of a forced drifting, but I suspect it'd be more reasonable than just nuking a blackhole lol.
For a much more lighthearted question; say you have a perfectly friction-less floor, if you fell onto it, would you be able to tell?
Hey Kyle, if one would like to build a city in the middle of the ocean, that they might or might not rule, for no nefarious intent whatsoever. Where would they build it?
I checked the depths oil rigs reach and then started looking at average ocean depths as I realised I was going out of my league, there were going to be forces and considerations in play that I would have no idea of.
Hope this catches some eyeballs.
I also like Mercury.
He wrote awesome songs
Hey Kyle I love your videos man, glad to see some great science exploration conversations for people who don’t necessarily know a lot or didn’t learn a lot.
I just want to address one thing, because now I cannot unsee it, you bob up and down a lot when you do your videos.
Keep it up!
"Matter needs Time to receive the information that it's moving." that's poetry
25:08 anything you throw into space that does not have a chemical or gravitational reason to keep itself together, would evaporate into a gas, because there is no atmospheric pressure that keeps it together.
Metals keep themselves together (they even weld without heat in space), due to their chemical properties, but for example an organic life form like a human or a grilled chicken are only bundled up molecules, held together by atmospheric pressure, so they'd slowly dissipate like a dumpling in hot water.
Nuke a Hurricane.. besides a catastrophe of spreading radiation and fallout like never before, probably. Wouldnt that feed an already powerful weather system.
BUT you forgot to factor in the COOL factor of nucking a hurricate
if you add that to the equation then the answear is obvious !
NUKE IT
ssuo ben I don’t think that a nuke cools things chief
He didn't mean it would cool it down, but it doesn't have much of a style factor either. Nuclear bombs are the most terrifying weapon on the planet, aside from maybe bioweapons.
Wait until CERN has enough antimatter to make an AMbomb.
@@Senarak bioweapons? Hmmm ... next up: Sarin Gas attack a hurricane.
What causes a hurricane and how do they maintain themselves and lastly, i am super super grateful your guys show has come this far. This is what i enjoy more than anything.
On the topic of nerve reattachment: About 4+ years ago I read that they were doing a kinda "nerve bypass" using fibre optics to give paralyzed people back use of their legs. At the time I read that they had two patients and both were showing incredible success. Though that's not exactly what the question was about it's along the same lines.
Wow you replaced voice in the void because he knew too much? Also you are just plotting your attack with the fallout hurricane.

"this is the worst idea, in the long sad history of bad ideas."
What kind of madman has access to nuclear arms and would suggest such a thing? They have probably never heard of a Category 5 either.
I don't think people that would support such a madman would watch this channel Because Science would bother them.
No worries about unsubscribing.
@@dinorancher5560 this is probably satire right? Because I believe the current US president has proposed, or at least suggested, EXACTLY that
@@remcodenouden5019 We dont know if he suggested it in jest or not AFAIK at least
Me: (reads title)
Also me: yes
Also I have a video suggestion... would you like to hear it
My suggestion is, is it possible to wing walk on a Boeing 747. Ideal flight conditions. How does wing walking work. What's the limit
If a Hurricane crosses the equator it will start spinning the other way? or will it cancel itself ??due to Coriolis effect?
Once it picked up its rotation it won't change it again. Coriolis effect only effects the direction of the spin at the very beginning when it's first starting any kind of movement. Coriolis effect is way to weak to have an effect once this weak start amplified itself to the scale of an huricane.
I don't know if that's ever actually happened, so I would assume it would be purely hypothetical. I would say it would not spin the other way or stop, but it might start to lose power slowly.
I think the Jet streams would have more of an effect on it then the Coriolis effect.
Some Critique about your nuking a hurricane portion:
1) Would have found it more interesting on the average cost of hurricane impact versus the cost of nukes so it can truly be
stated whether or not it is a viable option from a cost perspective.
2) Dropping a bomb in the eye of a hurricane would not be the optimal location to disrupt the storm, near the eyewall but
still far enough away that the blast would not enter the eye, would likely be the most effective location.
3) What would be the impact of the largest nuclear bomb (Tsar bomb) have on it?
4) What are some non-nuclear options to disrupt (not necessarily disapate) a hurricane to maybe tropical storm levels?
Some I have heard of is dropping dry ice into the storm or using sonic booms to lower the intensity of the storm.
5) Would have been interesting to find out if the sudden addition of energy to a hurricane could actually make it stronger.
Obviously the fallout of a nuclear bomb is of concern but there are some designs that minimize the amount to being barely detectable. That being said, throwing the most powerful military weapons around without really thinking of the impact or consequences is a bad idea. Increasing the nuclear material into food ecosystem is a truly risky proposition. Non-nuclear I would be curious to see what happens to a storm, if it could be disrupted or even course changed.
Speaking of mercury, my dad told me, when he was in high school(early '60's), the teacher would actually pour mercury out in students hands so they could watch it move around!
You said the most powerful nuke in the US arsenal. What about the most powerful nuke of all time the tsar bomba, made by the Russians.
If it takes about 2.5 of our 1 megaton bombs a minute, would take 1 Tsar Bomba (50 megatons) every 20 minutes on average.

@@lightningcat82 lol. Well played.
Fallout across the country? Kyle you’re a supervillain, no doubt. And don’t even try to send an orbital strike, I have a water bucket! I know from Minecraft that water disables TNT.
About harnessing the power of hurricanes with off shore windmills. I can't remember the reference, but I saw an article about a study finding out that in odrer to power all of western Europe with offshore wind power, you would need to cover something like 3 million square kilometers with windmills. The immediate effect would be to pump energy out of the ocean and onto shore. That would reduce average temperature in the region by about 10 cegrees Celcius. And we know that hurricanes are powered by warm water. If you pumped heat out of the ocean, you'd prevent the very formation of hurricanes. So you would essentially steal away hurricanes' power source. Killing two birds with one stone.
The Mercury story reminds me of every time i grab a bl8ck og lead and forget its lead, i almost fall because i hadn't prepared myself for it to be that heavy,
I saw the title screen and... Well my thoughts are. "WHY?!"
The American President is a nutcase...
A better question would be if nukes could disrupt tropical storms before they upgrade to cyclones. Or otherwise influence the weather events leading to the formation of cyclones.
Who Knows if you look at the actual question this is what was asked about. Even if it did somehow work at the tropical depression level, most of them do not result in a hurricane and we have no way of knowing which ones will. By the time we do know it would be too late.
That would result in something like a number of nukes being fired off every single day, there is normally a tropical storm happening at all times somewhere in the world, most are just in places like the middle of the pacific ocean not near any land and blow out long before they even get close to inhabited locations.
Also we have no way to tell when a normal storm will upgrade, its just one of those slow moving scales that just grows in power.
I actually had some nerve damage in my youth where the nerves that served the right side of my lower lip got cut during surgery. I was lucky and had the nerve regrow over the period of six months, after which I had a period in which signals from that part felt stronger than in the rest of the body. It did get normalised after a while.
Brilliant Episode!!
I really want to think of a good question to ask but so many have already been covered 🤔
"I miss mr. D."
That what she said.
hey Kyle, in the show 'The Boys', a speedster ran into a character and they completely exploded! do you think that would realistically happen?
Absolutely
Look up videos of what bullets do to ballistics gel. Then imagine the bullet human sized.
also if you want 'realistic', look up my Man Newton: "for ever action there is an equal and opposite reaction" your speedster also explodes.
Only question is what should have happened to the Hero that hit her, if she was goop-a-fied then should he not have also?
@@xyvazkrown8048 we're talking about people that can run thousands of miles an hour here. Do you really think they'd be effected by that force?
Building on the space food idea. Let's say we stored pizza's in space. Flash frozen in a metal or radiation blocking container. Could we then throw/luanch it at a location on earth and have it cooked by the fall through the atmosphere. I cant help but imagine daffy duck looking through his fingers like he is aiming. Then a looney tunes baseball windup.and whip it at the front door of someone's home.
In response to us envisioning new sci fi...I personally have been becoming more and more disillusioned with our technological progress. Especially watching how consuming our recent advances can be, such as social media, smart phones, home control devices and the internet as a whole. Honestly the things that get me most excited are friends of mine who go start a farm, who start bee keeping, who learn to physically craft things. Maybe that's just me, I don't have any problem with tech, I've video gamed since I was 4, my first jobs were in IT. My life is totally dependent on all these advances. But now new advances always seem to make me ask the question "Oh what will this cost of us? Privacy? Time? Health?" I want us to progress as a society and always get better but...I can't think of anything else I want in my life that will make my life any easier without sacrificing something else more vital. Maybe it's having a better grasp on our history through the internet and watching how much of the planet we have destroyed by our specific method of pursuing progress, or I'm just an old boring fart.
Cliffs: Nuking hurricanes would accomplish nothing, because a hurricane already releases the same energy as a moderate-sized nuke every second or so. A nuke would feel like a hiccup from a hurricane's perspective.
They need to make an ARG around Kyle’s villainy
21:33 YES. This is something that I knew growing up but when I reached college, you are right, you learn that success only comes from being right. You are disincentivized to ever be wrong. But, once I left college and joined the workforce, it was shown to me once again through some incredibly understanding and intelligent coworkers. You only ever have more to learn in life and along the way, you will be wrong. But being wrong does not slow you down at all. In fact, being wrong early can pay big dividends in the end. For example, I learned quickly the simple processes that could essentially delete all of our company data. I learned because I asked if what I was going to do was correct. Obviously, it was not but had I not asked I would have ruined the company and lost my job. Moral of the story, don't be afraid to be wrong.
How can you manipulate vacuum energy to utilise as a propulsion for extragalactic travel???
Thanks Kyle. You know it is very super villainy to describe all life on earth as "a biofilm".
Hi Kyle,
Would painting the roofs of all houses in the world have a noticable effect on climate change?
What would the effect of white roofs be on things like airplanes etc... ?
Second first, the effect on airplanes is negligible for white, other than possibly easier landmarks. For houses, they would be a little cooler in the summer, and a little colder in the winter (northern hemisphere answers). For climate change, the effect would be minimal. We have more black surfaces as roads and parking lots. Even if every roof on the planet were white, or even a mirror, we have so little of the planet at roofs, the effect would be small on the environment. The effect on animals may be bigger, particularly for reflective roofs.
@@MonkeyJedi99 Living in Lucifer's ballsack (the southeastern part of the U.S.) while I agree with the your initial assessment that white-topping or mirror-topping houses and other buildings would have a minimal, unnoticeable effect itself the reduction in energy consumption could begin to be significant. We spend a lot of power trying to compete with brutally hot summers and reducing that power consumption would mean less demand for coal burning which would help.
Of course if we were really smart we'd just solar power the crap outta the entire region and have the thing that's baking us also be the thing that powers the cooling systems.
Army instructor always told us there is no such thing as a dumb question, if you don't know the answer you are better asking and knowing the answer (especially if it could be critical) makes life so much easier.
Going back to the queation on a Vaccume Fridge, it might be possable to build something like that. If we had a refrigeration unit here on earth, for either commercial or industrial use, then you could still cool down the foodstuffs by having them in contact with a shelf in the unit that is cooled by the unit, transferring the heat out of the item while the lack of atmosphere could deny any microbe air.
Doesn't the moon have a stabilizing effect on the Earth? So if you removed the moon our axial tilt/precession would increase giving us more extreme seasons and weather patterns.

Hello Kyle, I love the sound you make for a dissipating hurricane!
So Gears of War 5 just released and I was wondering how strong the soldiers really are to be able to crush skull and burst enemies into parts as often as they do. I mean the game takes being pistol to a whole new level.
Love the show Kyle
They're not on earth so who knows depends on a bunch of different things
It's a hurricane, we handle it by not handling it.
Human engineering has continuesly produced implementation to minize the damage of different kind of disasters. I'm pretty sure once science and our scale of engineering pick up we will handle hurricanes as well.
@@peterhacke6317 the last thing we need is people interfering with natural disaster especially using nuclear bombs.
@@Yeet_master69 that's the kind of defeatism that leads to stagnation. While i agree about being careful about it, someday we can and will be interfering with them.
@@peterhacke6317 maybe someday If the global warming doesn't kill us first.
And yes you could use space to preserve food, you freeze it, then haul it up there, in containers you could expose to vacuum and protect it from radiation. It would be permanently freeze dried then, with no oxygen or microbes to cause it to go bad. It would last more or less in definitely in those conditions.
When it comes to black holes, I heard a figure of about the mass of Mount Everest as far as the minimum mass of a black hole which could draw in material faster than the black hole would evaporate. Basically the black hole needs a mouth big enough to gulp down mass faster than it would be losing mass.
As soon as trump talked about it I knew we would have an episode about it.
Nuking a hurricane is, bar none, the worst idea I've heard come out of the mouth of an adult.
Trump is scary that way.
Thankfully he wasnt being serious. He was apparently trying to root out the mole who leaked his schedule the week before. She was forced to resign shortly after the nuke comment made the news.
@@Merik2013 Trump says idiot crap all day long, so I don't believe he was not serious. He proves his incompetence and dementia every day.

What would batman's Cape have to be made from to left him glide and would it work?
Steryotypical_Brit I think he (or someone like him) explained this in a previous episode, you should look it up on CZcams, I found the topic very interesting
Just looked it up and yes he did it on nerdist (the episode is called “how does Batman’s cape glide”)
I love your show. I usually watch your videos on one screen while playing Eve online or Starcraft II on my other screen.
Now, my question. Nuking a Hurricane has been covered, but, what would happen if we Nuked a Tornado? I know, bad idea, lots of fallout and direct damage, but, just wondering, what would happen to the Tornado?
You already talked about that accident at Los Alamos when you were discussing the death of Iron Man.
The demon core lml
The Demon Core. Classic story. Rods from God dropped from space as a nasty Sciffy possibility.
Wasnt that the plot of call of duty ghost? But tungsten rods propelled by a satellite based rail gun?
Maybe not a nuclear weapon... But could you possibly disperse a hurricane through the use of a modified volumetric weapon, also known as a vacuum bomb? If we were to find a fuel source that works or is even activated by water, a large enough "vacuum bomb", in my opinion, would create a large enough pressure wave to disperse the hurricane? Especially if we caught it early out over the open ocean?
That black hole question leads to one that I've been wondering about for a while:
If there was a black hole with an event horizon which is say, I don't know, 1 - 2 cm in diameter, just floating there in front of you (it probably wouldn't be floating, more likely boring its way to the centre of the planet but LET'S just imagine it can float! And let's also imagine you're able to stand near it, considering its mass would have to be pretty insane to be that size... it'd be about as heavy as Earth, but again... we're imagining!)... what would happen if you were to wave your hand across in front of you so as to pass through the black hole? Presumably you'd end up with a hole in your hand? Maybe the hole would be the size of the singularity, maybe it would be the size of the event horizon, maybe, the most likely case - I think - it would be larger than the size of the event horizon. Or do you think the rest of your body would fall into it? Bear in mind that the event horizon is where things moving at the speed of light radially away from the exact centre would presumably be stationary, so of course being anywhere near the EH would spell bad news.
Taking away the imagination now, do you think you'd fall right in? Would the skin on your chest be ripped away first, if that was the closest part of you to the BH? What're your thoughts? I know there's much we don't know about these fascinating monsters but it's fun to imagine!
*What's Next? Nuking a Black Hole? ;''3*
. . . I shouldn't give em ideas.
Why not!? That's a great idea! We need to convince all the world leaders to fire their entire nuclear arsenals into the nearest black hole.
That way we will not have a nuclear Armageddon
@@elias_xp95 I'm afraid that in a distant future humans will see black holes as convenient dumpster fire for human waste in space.
Nuking Hurricanes?
Who asked that?... Mr. Richfield?
Fact that kind of ideas lead dinosaurs to extinction
Trump. Who else?
so quick question that might be dumb. if the bomb were to go off say 2/3rd s of the way down wouldn't the water be forced outward dispersing the connection virtually pulling the water part of the hurricane down? if so would it just restart? or would the force of the weight make it lose a lot of its power so it couldn't restart? obviously in this scenario not worrying about fallout of any kind.
Even if nuking a hurricane or tornado dissipated the storm, there's still the extremely high possibility of radioactive debris spreading across large areas of land, affecting crops animals and people. It would create a radioactive atmosphere in that particular area basically. There is a small chance that the radioactive particles are spread far enough that they have little to no effect however, but that chance is small depending on a hurricane/tornado's average wind speed.
I love that the last two videos put out could be about 3 seconds long. "NO" - The end
CORRECTION
the moment when your call bromine metal which it ain't. Also mentioned bromine being solid at room temperature far from it it's not even liquid
Please don't take this as criticism
No need to correct him, because that's not what he said. He said mercury was a metal and also a liquid at room temperature. Bromine is also a liquid a room temperature though just barely. No worries, he was getting a bit flustered towards the end there so the wording might have been confusing.
"I think you might scared be of 'the grey slime/blur'. A. K. A: nano-machines!"
Wrt question at 22:43 ish.. Controlled atmosphere (vacuum) fridges do exist and are used to preserve food for substantially long periods of time.

there are many elements liquid at room temperature. It is one of a few METALS liquid at room temp.
My father fell 14' out of a tree stand in Canada, he was roughly 300lbs.. He ended up having severe nerve damage in both arms, several broken ribs & a collapsed lung. He survived only because it was the 1st year they started using those Motorola walkie talkies..
The low end for the energy output of the astroid that took out the dinosaurs was calculated to be at least 1.3YJ. or 1.3x10^24 joules. If we use a relativity calculator we find no object under arround 1,000,000kg (@ 0.997c) could impact earth going slower than a large fraction of the speed of light and match the asteroid that took out the feathery scaly Bois.
This channel should just be renamed "Should we nuke it"
He was trying so hard not to mention Trump. LOL!!!
The idea isn't to forced air from existing air (e.i an explosion) the way you can move this much air is by bending the ionosphere from the upper atmosphere. It will suck the air below it much like a balloon does when you stretch it out, or kind of like your lungs do. You can achieve way more movement of air with far less power needed.
I swear Kyle makes another video about nuking something absurd, I might just cry
