Filling an Air Mattress With Helium to See if I Can Float!

Aladdin would like to know your location.

For those who just wants to see what the results are: 9:50

My brain: REPLACE IT WITH HYDROGEN Me: NO!

Now if I was sleeping in a small room with that mattress and it deflated, I'd be breathing in some really funny air.

Now that’s an air mattress. Everything else is a ground mattress.

I. Am. SO. Pissed that I was gullible enough that you got me with thinking that it was rising up on its own when you were under it lmao 😂

You are the best ! Please go on with your experiments , very well done and explained .

Love this guy. He got me good! I felt like a child watching him lift that mattress. I was giddy. I'd like to think part of me knew it wasn't real, but this guy's just got the ability to make me want to believe in Awesomeness. I always feel better than before after watching his videos. Pretty sure he took off about 4 years of aging from this video alone. 😄

80 percent helium 20 percent air? It’s just like chips! 20 percent chips 80 percent air!

2:44 "He had us in the first half, not gonna lie!"

We could also build vacuum balloons. If you find a material that is super lightweight and strong enough to withstand atmospheric pressure, you could make a balloon out of it, suck out (almost) all the air from inside and it will raise because it also displaces air and unlike helium or hydrogen, it has no density whatsoever, so it will raise even stronger.

We used to use helium in air suspension for hopping. As he said the speed of helium. It charges to the air spring faster than air giving more energy at inflation. Another thing we noticed was the molecules were smaller and able the permeate the air spring. So if you had one full of C02, 02, and helium, the helium one would deflate as the molecules passed through the rubber.

Ok, but the real question is: at what point does it stop being an air mattress and becomes a helium mattress?

2:51 I literally thought it was floating for a second 😂😂

Those of us who are old enough to remember when Mythbusters was around knew that this was doomed from the beginning.

In order to float, the total density would need to be less than that of air. The density of air is approximately 1.225 kg/m³. If the weight of the man, clothing, mattress, and the gas is, 100kg, you would need the composite volume of 81.633 m³ to float. If your bedroom is 4m x 4m x 4m, your bedroom is smaller than this.

I actually thought the mattress was floating for a moment

He got me when the matress started flying

i was 99% sure it won't float, but when i saw it floating i started believing it for a second

Dude, you are “killing me!” I have only recently discovered your channel and I find myself binging! When I see one of your videos for the first time, I often detect some tongue- in -cheek humor behind your presentation: as well as your presentation which I think naturally encompasses same. Also, I often find myself either laughing out loud, or nearly rotf; just as I found myself watching this video, not upon seeing the thumbnail ( although almost) but before your first sentence was finished! Kudos to you, sir! Excitedly awaiting more granular entertainment! ( if there were an appropriate flourish emoji, I would insert here) 👏🏽
