Plasma Toroid vs. Science YouTubers

Fun device! Thank you for showing me, and thank you to Cameron for hosting us!

It's so cool to see a bunch of my favorite channels interacting with each other. Even if I'm simply watching a video that was recorded hundreds of miles away, it just feels like such a tightly knit group. I love your work, it makes NO sense to me and it is so cool.

DUDE WHAT?!?!?! YOU MADE IT BIG LOL CONGRATS!!!!

Congratulations! I hope that not only will you continue to find new an interesting people to bounce off of, but that you will refine this research as you go.

I really appreciate that Destin even when out of his feild still is fascinated and attracted to learning and you can see his mind trying to join the dot together on characteristics that are analogues to familiar concept because he knows everything is related and just a different spinoff from the energy and forces in nature ! He is the type of mind that can see the whole picture when you explain a concept that uses a variety of engineering diciplines.All of you guys are rocket scientists and have the most important attribute which is the ability to communicate your ideas not just to the small audience in your field but anybody who is interested in learning and that is a superpower! well done humans and keep going !

I really love that Joel took the time to take someone new to the engineering and YouTube community and it's reaching out to make it more a collaboration and learning community. That's very awesome. And this was rather informational.

omg dude, you hit a home run with this video. The team, the home lab, Destin's jaw drop when he arrived, the freaking toroid portal generator (lol), everything!

I've studied plasma physics some years ago. What you see here is called capacitive AC discharge. When you wind a coil around and apply high frequency AC you get a situation when neighboring turns became oppositely charged and create an oscillating electric field between the turns. This field accelerates free flying electrons in tube and if field is strong enough electrons ionoze Xe atoms and produce avalance discharge. This Electric field is strongest nest to turns that is why you have torus plasma. The lifting of torus is related to convection as you mentioned.

15:08 The most fascinating part for devices like this for me is the spin interaction to "prime" it and how easy that is to miss, along with the right mix of xenon. Just think how many innocuous do-nothing experiments have gone on in the world that could all just be missing 1 variable in their process to create an undiscovered effect. Imagine Faraday using a lead bar with a coil of wire instead of a permanent magnet and how far back that would set us.

I LOVE seeing the science community come together like this!

How did I miss this collab between some of my favorite Youtube channels hidden in a newcomers channel ? This is awesome..

i’m proud my guy what an accomplishment you got here can’t wait to watch the video

To have Justin and intezga both stumped, you have such an amazing journey ahead of you! And I'm here for it! Loved this, this reminds me of the old YouTube, no fuss just pure enjoyment of learning this is perfect!

It's just so cool to see how your channel has grown lately.

Been following you for about the last year and it's wild to see the recognition you've gotten from other creators. And congrats on winning first in the ee festival!

Love this! As you said, you're at the start of your interest in this, and both look where you've gone so far, and where you will go! I will continue to watch with fascination as you grow your skills and knowledge! Well done, and congrats on winning first place at the festival!

Man this video just made me super happy to watch! Honestly followed you pretty early on just because this was a neat project. Didn't expect it to go anywhere, but here you are now! Reminds me of me at your age when I started working as a monster truck announcer... Basically somebody I knew in the industry called me up one day, and I just faked it until I made it... Truth is, learning to jump at opportunities is half the battle sometimes. Put yourself in the right circles and those opportunities just keep coming. Congratulations man.

First video of yours I've seen. Well done! I love that it was literally just a bunch of minds learning and trying to figure this thing out. Just geeking out at a basic level!

This just popped into my recommended, so happy I caught it!! This seems like such a dream opportunity, I hope youtube keeps pushing this video to a lot of new people!

Also wanted to state I'm a new subscriber. I want to thank you for shouting out Max Amps. Graphene really is the future. I'm very much into science and math. The fact that the two isn't more mainstream in this country saddens me deeply. My wife is from Cuba and I'm so in awe of the Cuban people for their ingenuity and perseverance in dealing with outdated tech. Fringe Science is where innovation happens. Keep up the good work
