Welcome to the VAT19 Test Lab.
Today we're going to compare and contrast
Sand, Floof, Mad Mattr, and Glow in the Dark Sand.
They're all oddly satisfying.
But we're going to find out what makes them curiously awesome.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Time for the Feel Test.
Sand.
It's actually pretty firm I would say.
But the ooze factor.
I've been baking a lot lately and this
reminds me of brown sugar.
Looks like sand, feels like sand, doesn't smell like sand.
Like if this got in your butt crack,
do you think it'd be pleasant or not?
Normal sand, you would say no.
But this is soft.
Mmm.
Check it out.
Ooh.
Mmm.
Oh.
It's so soft.
This is what clouds should feel like.
I want to fill a mattress with this.
It sticks together more than Sand does.
For sure.
Like you couldn't pick Sand up like this.
Super smooth.
To me, this is like kind of marshmallowy.
I don't know how people can resist eating this.
[LAUGHTER]
[SPITTING]
OK.
We're good.
Glow in the Dark Sand.
Ooh.
Ahhh.
Here we go.
Oh.
It's fluffy.
It's heavier than the Floof.
Yeah.
But so much fluffier than Sand.
Yeah.
It's like between the two.
I want to stick my feet all the way in this.
So dense right now.
Whoa.
That's, like, harder compared to the last.
It feels like a clay or something.
But then squeeze and pull.
Oh yeah.
So cool.
And this is just the fluffiest--
[LAUGHTER]
Puppy fluff.
You can compact this one like really tight.
This one you could actually make something with.
You could shape so much with this.
It reminds me of just a big giant thing of chewing gum.
Smells like childhood.
Stickier feeling.
But doesn't--
Yeah.
--totally stick to my hands.
It feels moist like the inside of a cake.
There's no fluff.
No fluff at all.
It's definitely a dough.
Kind of shreds.
It doesn't really compact, either.
It's just like--
No.
It is what it is.
It's one consistency.
This is the only one I've ever eaten.
I've never eaten Play-Doh.
What?
Salty.
Yeah.
Why is salty?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Shape Test.
It's a lot like making a sand castle with Sand.
If I make it too thin, it kind of folds down.
You can build things up.
But you've got to just--
You can make an Eiffel Tower pretty easily.
Joey, why are you laughing?
Who do you think it looks like?
Oh, that's Adam.
Put some glasses on it.
That's Adam.
Hold on.
Let me make some tourists.
There's the photographer.
Mhm.
Here's the superhero jaw with the butt chin.
Uh oh.
Oh my god, the photographer.
Run.
There we go.
Snowman.
Sandman.
Better than Eric's Eiffel Tower.
I'm just going to put that out there.
[LAUGHTER]
Whatever you squeeze this into, it stays.
Like, it's instant.
Yeah.
I'm making a cloud.
OK.
I'm going to make a turtle.
You know what I'm going to make?
An Eiffel Tower.
Try and do better than Eric's?
[LAUGHTER]
That's nice.
It's so light.
You know?
You can make it tall and it doesn't fall down
under its own weight.
So that was super easy.
Glow in the Dark Sand Shape Test.
Oh yeah.
Look at that.
This is holding up a lot better than the Sand.
It's very easy to mold.
But it's more fragile.
I kind of want to just, like--
[BANG]
Ooh yeah.
It's a cat.
It's pretty creepy.
I think this would be good if you had a pool of it
and you jumped off of something into it.
Because it would just catch you.
That's a good snake.
Mad Mattr Shape Test.
It's weird.
No words.
Because it is very easy to mold but
you need to get it in its loose state first.
Hey.
Look at that.
I wonder if this is going to be as satisfying to hit.
Whoa.
[LAUGHTER]
That didn't work the way I thought it would.
It does bend though under its own weight
because it does get pretty heavy when it's dense.
If I had to build my house out of one of these,
it would be Mad Mattr, I think.
[LAUGHTER]
It's got kind of a gut.
What's a classic Play-Doh shape?
Oh.
It just doesn't feel nice after feeling all this.
Like, it's so wet and sticky.
Play-doh?
I mean you could sculpt it pretty well.
But when you try to build high, it
does kind of like fold in on itself
more so that the Mad Mattr and more so than Floof, I think.
My mom would get so mad at me.
This stuff would get in the carpet.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Now we feast, huh?
Yeah.
Oh no.
Kind of you go for a little while, then snip.
You've got that top layer to break through
and then you get the softness where it just glides.
It's like grainy cake.
That's really satisfying.
It's almost like cutting a roll of cookie dough.
Yeah.
Everything is like food for us.
Can you tell it's almost lunch?
It molds really well.
It's super detailed.
It does mold really well.
See the belly button.
Ooh, it's a little stickier.
Yeah.
It kind of squishes down more.
It wasn't quite-- it didn't slice right through it.
So it wasn't as oddly satisfying.
Yeah.
I'm not as satisfied.
I don't feel like I'm cutting it as much as I'm just pushing it.
I think maybe because it's airier it doesn't have as
much density to hold it down.
I've never cut a Peep in half.
But I feel like that's what this would feel like.
It's not bad.
Hm.
Let's--
That's different.
Like, it's still at the bottom.
Like, you have to kind of like--
I like how it goes through though.
It goes through pretty quickly.
I'd say similar to the Floof on the cut.
It feels nice on the hands.
But the knife really doesn't do much.
You ready for this?
Yep.
Oh yeah.
Ooh, kind of have to really push down.
That's a good one.
It is like cutting--
Cheese.
Hard cheese with a good cheese knife.
Yep.
How clean that is.
Stab test.
It doesn't stab very well.
That's weird.
This is my Mad Mattr carrot.
Making a salad.
It's going to be delicious.
Oh.
Nope.
Boink.
Bonk.
Nope.
Shee-boing.
Shloop.
Bloop.
Guhlip.
Hiyah, hiyah, hiyah, hiyah.
So not a very good--
[LAUGHTER]
Hm.
Well?
Not so much.
It is very smushy.
I'm stuck.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
I've seen the video so I think you just--
All you have to do is kind of brush
it towards the pile and it just sort of--
[SLURPING SOUND]
Mop those up.
Look at that.
Good.
Done.
Let's clean up some Floof.
Get Floofed.
Let's de-Floof this Floof.
I feel like clean up will be easy.
Let's see.
You kind of just like smush it together.
Oh, this is the best.
This is no problem.
[FART SOUNDS]
Give me more Floof to clean up.
We're going to we're going to finish early.
Look at that.
Clean.
Done.
And clean.
We should have made this a competition.
A little harder.
Yeah.
It's kind of spreading.
We've still got a couple of pieces here and there.
Yeah.
It definitely kind of clings to your fingers sometimes.
Yeah.
You know what another good method is for this though?
If I push mine to yours--
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then I don't have to deal with it.
A little bit of residue.
But like--
Nothing major.
Yeah.
Just like a little of the polymer.
Kind of clean.
That's quick.
Clean up.
Yeah.
That was really easy.
Done.
Clean.
Look at this mess.
Ugh.
It's kind of like Whack a Mole.
Gross.
You probably can't pick this up.
They're little specks.
Yeah.
And there's also oil.
This is why my mom gets mad at me when I play with Play-Doh.
You had to make this Play-Doh mess?
Where's the Mad Mattr?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Sand.
Yeah.
Definitely Sand.
It's light but dense.
Stays together.
Yeah.
Does it tear?
It tears.
There's only one of them that tears.
Mad Mattr.
Let me try to smell.
Floof?
Yep.
Yeah.
Cause it's powdery and it's kind of soft.
That's the lightest one.
Yeah.
Cool to the touch.
It's kind of fluffy.
Yeah.
It feels like it's glowing.
It does feel like it's glowing.
Doesn't it?
It does.
It's Glow in the Dark Sand.
Yeah.
High five.
[LAUGHTER]
