In today's video,
we are taking a commonly despised item,
and making it even more dangerous.
[Music]
Guys, we built
a random idea generator, and it kicks out some weird stuff,
and some of them seem like pretty mean ideas.
This time, it gave us weaponized glitter.
Now, it doesn't go
into any details about what that means,
it just leaves it up to us.
And so, we weaponized glitter.
Here's the basic idea.
Our random idea generator told us to weaponize glitter.
So we're going to go ahead and get creative with that
in a few different ways.
Namely, into really
really really really adorable little bombs.
We've got three different versions of weaponized glitter.
We've got some bombs that are made
from glass Christmas ornaments filled with glitter,
and painted to be super cute.
We've got Nerf darts that we are dipping in glitter
and glue to make a sort of DIY paint ball.
Although, it's more glitter than paint.
And then we've got
water balloons full of gelled alcohol, water,
and glitter, of course, because that's the thing.
All right, on your mark?
Wait.
Get set!
First, let's show them how we made these.
All right.
Well show you how we made these,
and then we'll show you what they do.
So the first thing
that you want to do is assemble all of your supplies.
Most of the stuff, I got from a craft store.
So we've got glitter, a funnel,
different types of craft paint, Model Magic, some craft cord,
and a piece of foam sheet.
Once you have the rest of your supplies assembled,
you're going to want to get a glass of Christmas ornament.
Now, you can choose what size or shape you want.
I wanted to go with the very classic looking video game bomb.
So I found the biggest round ornament I could find.
So with these ornaments,
you can get them at pretty much any store during Christmas time.
I was able to get these on clearance,
because it's after Christmas, but they're pretty simple.
They're made to fill or to decorate.
So if you take off the top,
you're going to have a little piece of wire
that we've clipped off,
and you're going to want to save this top for later.
Next, you're going to grab your funnel,
and you're going to choose your weapon.
So I've got two different colors of glitter.
So I'm going with gold and for this one.
That's either going to look like an awesome explosion,
or a Gryffindor party.
So for your next step,
you're going to add a thin line of hot glue
right around the edge of your glass ornament,
and we're going to put the lid back on once that's in place.
Once your ornament is sealed up,
take a piece of your craft foam, and cut a strip
that's about the same height as the top of your ornament.
Once you've cut your strip of craft foam,
glue it around the edges.
Probably go around it twice to make sure it's
about the width and size that you're going to want.
Next, you're going to take your craft cord, and cut a piece,
maybe about 2 inches long.
Once you've got a decent amount of hot glue,
we've almost formed the dome at the top like a resin dome.
You're going to sink your wick down into it.
[Music]
Once you've got the body assembled,
you can start painting.
So the paint that I'm using is not very expensive.
It's about 90 cents a bottle, which is great.
But it also doesn't have the best coverage.
So I'm going to probably do two or three coats
of this black paint on the body,
but I'm going to be hitting it with the heat gun,
so I don't have to wait for it to dry.
If you use a better quality paint,
you can probably do this just once,
and not worry about it too much.
Once you've got the body of your video game bomb
all finished painted,
you're going to want to hit it with a layer of sealant.
This is probably my favorite sealer I use for anything,
whether it's decorations or cosplay.
This is Krylon Clear Sealer, and it's amazing.
It works for anything.
[Music]
Alright, once you have the base all made,
it's time to add the details.
And the way that we're going to add the little face
and the feet is going to be Model Magic.
It's super cheap, super easy to use.
You don't need a whole lot of skill or practice with it,
and it's going to form really easy for what we need.
[Music]
Guys, I've already assembled all of our bombs.
Now, it's time to make some more weapons.
[Music]
That's still enough glitter
that you're not going to want to get hit with it.
Any glitter is enough that I don't want to get hit with it.
That's the point.
[Music]
All right, guys,
we've got three different types of glitter weapons.
It's time for a field test.
[Music]
So glitter has a tendency to stick to things forever.
And...
If you get it on you,
be prepared to have it on you forever.
I'm trying not to ruin my clothes.
I'm trying to ruin his clothes.
Yeah.
That's why they call it War.
Yep.
I've gone all out folks.
This is a head sock.
It's a rectangle with a spot badly cut out
and sewn for your eyes.
[Music]
You're going down.
I'm yelling glitter.
Okay.
Yeah, I was having that same problem.
And I say I was, I mean, I still am.
This is going well.
This is glitter glue.
Now what we're doing with this is
were actually coating the ends of our Nerf darts in glue,
and then glitter.
And then we're shooting each other with it.
[Music]
Bomb flower!
Bomb flower.
Your bomb didn't break.
No!
This is unfair.
Anybody ever play Ocarina of Time?
Bomb flowers.
[Music]
3, 2, 1.
[Music]
3, 2, 1.
Nice.
[Music]
Hey Nate.
No.
I can't see.
They're sticking to you.
They're sticking to the gun.
I'm glittered.
You got me.
Wait, I've got water balloons.
[Music]
No.
No!
No! Don't move!
No!
Aw.
I'm sorry.
3, 2, 1.
[Music]
Am I covered in glitter?
Yeah, it's gold glitter.
Yes.
[Music]
I'm getting Mark, there.
Where's the other gun?
Aha, I got two bullets left.
Oh, no, guys.
I gotta go in.
I do it.
I gotta go.
Well.
[Music]
I'm on glitter.
What do you have in your hand?
Nothing.
What do you have?
Not a handful of glitter.
And dirt.
Oh, okay.
That's it.
Back off.
There's another balloon.
No, no, no.
No!
Okay.
No.
[Music]
Well, if you ever really want to make somebody mad,
you can make your own video game, Glitter Bombs.
I think the glue was a mean, a mean addition.
I've never been so proud.
Guys, that was awesome.
But you know,
we've always got more for you to see.
This box up here at the top will take you to our latest video.
That box of the bottom is
what YouTube thinks you should be watching next.
Hit this bomb in the middle,
and it will subscribe you to the channel.
Don't forget to ring that bell, and we'll see in the next one.
Talk to you then.
