One of the many moments of Fry having unexpected bursts of intelligence. A solid gold fiddle really would weigh about two hundred pounds. The strings would not resonate properly in any way, shape, or form, and the sound box being golden would cause it to resound terribly. it would, in fact, sound entirely horrible.
Why would the sound box being golden make it sound horrible? I understand that strings wouldn't resonate well and that, but the sound box? I ask because there are golden flutes which actually sound quite better than silver flutes
@@santiagobarrera2387 How a flute makes notes and how a violin makes notes are two entirely different ways. A flute does so by splitting the air with an edge to 'whistle' and sending the resulting sound reverberations down the tube to escape through certain numbers of holes to allow certain amounts of the sound out and make for different notes. But all notes are reliant entirely on the single note produced by that whistle from the blowhole. Because gold is a more malleable metal that allows you get a MUCH MUCH sharper edge, the whistling hole edges could be cut finer and tuned much more precisely on a golden flute, which would make the notes much cleaner and more precise, making it sound way better. The unique sound of a violin comes from the sound of the strings entering the holes on the box and bouncing back out through the holes in a 'concentrated' manner to reverberate out into the air. Unfortunately, you can't have the sound start echoing, they need to bounce precisely around and come right back out. And metals of all kind are echoey, breaking the sound up and distorting it and making it repeat over and over. This muddies up the notes by making them play on top of one another when they shouldn't and makes it sound awful. Note that niether of these explanations are EXACTLY true, they're lies-to-children explanations, but this comment's already running long and I'm not writing a textbook on sonics, harmonics, and how they factor into musical instrument engineering (mostly because I have only a basic understanding myself).
Hehe, see this is what happens when you let bureaucracy and government run everything. Fairness in Hell Act hehe. Just the name sounds so ridiculous and hilarious. Wonder if there is a Robot Heaven.
@@MajorTeag there is a robot heaven. Specifically in the episode where bender dies and is sent to robot hell (for the millionth time) and is tasked with scaring fry to death by possessing electronics
I liked that part too. In the Spanish audio it sounds like he is wheezing and in French it sounds a little high mixed with a groan but not as high pitched as Homer's voice here.
What the guy above me said. Sort of a "Those who signed understand they could have challenged the devil to a fiddle contest" sort of deal. Though thats just a theory as we don't read the actual page. Devil is in the details you know
Those are laws of a land, not a contract. It would be equivalent of murdering someone and then saying that you did not signed any contract and thus you could do that.
I can honestly imagine such an act if Hell is ever discovered to be a physical plane of existence we can travel to. lol Also to be fair she did technically "beat" him with the fiddle.
Powers but yes you are correct, and there’s actually 8 in total. There are 4 principalities as well. There are 13 heavenly planes [on] earth, each a domain of a ruler of the dark kingdom. 8 powers, 4 principalities, and then Satan himself. Spooky shit once you start reading into it more, just the amount of power the dark kingdom holds over the earth. One of the greatest deceptions Satan did was convincing the world that he does not exist.
Like the other guy said, pure gold is soft... like chewable soft. (Had a pure gold Christian necklace thing since I was a baby and chewed on it a lot until I outgrew it, didn’t know it was pure gold for a long time)

Can we just admire how Leela casually wielded a solid gold fiddle that weighs hundreds of pounds like it was a regular slightly heavy sword?
you've seen her biceps, right?
She's an extremely strong woman.
i like the small detail of the golden violin getting misshapen after every hit, cause golds a fairly soft metal
Yep, also shows how incredibly strong she is. I doubt a regular person could even lift that thing, let alone bludgeon him with it like that.

Don't you remember that "gambling wrong and so is cheating"?

The Devil is about lawful evil. Just like a good lawyer.
@Gage King it has evil in the name.
That scream RD gives shows it's Homer

I feel like he says "best" him instead of "beat" him because someone had the same idea as Lila and the comment section.
He does say best.
If the violin was so heavy then why was Leela able to carry it so easily?
She is a mutant.
She's been shown to be freakishly strong.
She's an extremely strong woman.
Whenever you notice something like that. A wizard did it.
Having Robot Hell in New Jersey is probably my favorite dig Matt Groening has made at the state in his shows
i love the devil went down to Georgia reference
To anyone curious, I looked it up and a golden fiddle would weigh ~11kg or 25lbs
Robot devil: I'll kill one of you umm him

Me: who's we you got a mouse in your pocket
The devil's Screams man hahahaha
