- Alright, school project time.
Lincoln's question is what's inside of balls?
And he means sports balls.
So we are going to find that out.
We have a few different things here,
we have a basketball,
tennis ball,
golf ball,
soccer ball.
So, here's Lincoln, hey buddy,
feeling a little sick from the flu,
but we've got this,
which I think will work well.
And then I bought this little clamp,
and we have the baseball in it right now.
So we just kinda hooked it up to the counter,
and it's pretty sturdy,
so we'll see how it works.
Alright, let's see if this works.
Right there? Is that the half?
- Sure
- [Man] Oooh, gotta clamp it down a little bit tighter.
Clamp it down boys.
Nice, look at that.
I think our camera got off track there.
This is dangerous with my fingers right there.
Think we're almost halfway there.
What's gonna be inside?
This official major league baseball
game use,
maybe it's not game use, ball.
It's got some weird stuff on it so far,
it looks like insulation.
From like, that you put in that.
Back to the clamp again,
If I had done this before,
maybe I would know a better way to (mumbles).
This is my first time cutting open a baseball.
(clank)
Woo!
That was a close one.
Here's the inside of this guy,
you can see all the thread,
and then it's stuck there,
we've got all this on there,
let's pull some of that off.
Just thread.
And we're getting to the core,
which has, there's all the threads,
and inside you've got this little ball in there
- Huh?
- [Man] That's what we're trying to cut off.
Alright, we've decided to leave the ball,
here's that little ball in there,
we cut it a little bit,
it was kinda hard,
but I think the kids will think it's cooler like that,
they'll understand it's a ball.
Plus, it's really hard to cut,
that's my main reason.
So there we go,
here's all the stuff that we have left over from it.
Here's the inside,
it's just a ball of bunch of yarn that's all
wrapped around this little ball thing,
you can see that a little clearer right here.
It's just a bunch of yarn,
it's wrapped around the ball,
and then they put this leather thing on it.
So, very, very interesting.
What do you think about that buddy?
Good, 24 hour flu. Sick.
There's ball number one.
