This one was a wild ride. Now go get your dang Build Box in time for Christmas and let's make some cool stuff together. https://crunchlabs.com

cool

Hi

❤️

first :( almost

WOW

I especially like the part where you finally realize you're trying to make a precision guided missile, and the acknowledgment that those who know.... Literally cannot help you.

I'm better than Mark Rober.

the us military is watching

hey we have the same profile picture lol. Pretty useless comment but I thought it was pretty cool

you havnt even watched the whole videos did you just guess

I watched that part multiple times and cracked up every time.

This is highly educational!👍👍👍🐜🐜🐜

woah didnt expect to see you here

What if he sent off a ballon was just the Chinese spy ballon

It’s red, like ants

ANTSCANADA WHA R U DOING HERE ????????????

@Mellydaslay it’s red, like ants

As a former alien, I have to admit I love this video, keep it up

FORMER???

detroit: become human. or something idk

Only in ohio😅

Oh so your Mexican

@Tray Tyler nah he messi

I cant imagine what it feels like to work on something for months only to recognize a critical error at the very end and have to postpone or even scrap those months of work. So much respect for yalls fortitude and determination for pushing forward regardless of setbacks.

Its like science

Than find out your trying to make a precision guided missle

It's oddly uplifting. If they can hold to it for that long merely for the satisfaction of dropping an egg, then it begs the question what else can one accomplish if they put their mind to the task?

I love how he takes the simplest things and makes them extreme

I love how he thinks he's a really cool dad but his kids are embarrassed to be around him. Maybe he should focus on being a better father rather than just building weird science projects.

@Steve he isn’t making weird science projects, he’s making world history, and teaching us how some things work aswell as entertaining us

​@Steve tf are u talking abt

@Pepe Popo Wow you don't think people ever change demeanor when on and off camera? Think before asking questions.

DarkCoreX I'm not saying that he isn't talented at building things and making cool YouTube videos that are obviously lucrative. But just putting food on the table isn't the same as being a loving caring father.

3 Years. Wow! The dedication he put into this 30 minute video is insane! Thanks Mark.

“🤓actually 26:56 minutes🤓”

@CriticalV4 alr dude

@assassin_creeper9858 he said it was 3 years!!?😱

@BluePhantom ye! i know it's incredible

​@CriticalV4 r/iamverysmart

Mark is the only guy who accidentally make a guided missle

OMG IS THAT KING DAVID NO WAY

☺😆🤣

Nice video

@FloppaWithTheDrip OMGGG I THINK IT IS

I really appreciated the way you talked about the failures. Specifically the big one, the interface between the systems... Feeling like a failure defines you is crippling and you showed the healthy way of coping with and framing failure as an opportunity for growth. That's huge. Thanks for the mental health awareness and just real human feelings you bring to your videos.

As a former space operations officer in the US Air Force, I LOVE everything about this video. As a musician I have to ask: what bass guitars does Adam Steltzner have along the wall behind him??!! Seriously, the idea that he could land a spacecraft on Mars and then go play a show that night brings me so much joy!

Is it flat or round?

The Earth is very much round - though it bulges at the equator. 🙃

​@theyeswecans what is the so-called NISAR mission, can you elaborate?

​@DarkAngelû No, they did not elaborate.

@ybyb1231 Obviously flat with ice walls along the edge

I love the fact that they built this insane rocket and a beach ball full of packing materials worked the same

Sorry to say I think another chicken was the first to lay an egg to go faster than the speed of sound. Concorde served English breakfast which almost certainly would have eggs. 😂 love your videos by the way, I’m an engineer also and learn loads from you! Thanks

Yes, but the ones served as breakfast didn't make it through intact!

Fastes fried egg ever

They have powdered eggs on the ISS… so not whole eggs, but they’re currently pulling 28,000 km/hr. Bet those early Soviet missions brought boiled or pickled eggs too.

Apart from the funny spin by your friend from NASA about guided missiles ;) I really had the feeling you have a great deal of awesome and impressive people supporting you and I want to honor them too! Great job Mark and everybody else!

I love you calling the expert: “Dude can you help us with this silly egg thing?” “Um you’re trying to make a guided missile so no” 🤣

He leaked Bryan's cell number at 19:47 lol

Leaked

@-.- rip bryan

@-.- probably not his actual phone number

I call the phone number

Your video's always tell a great story while also being super informative and really show that one bit of failure is just another learning step in the proces of building something epic.

Can we just take our time to acknowledge the egg and mama chicken for making this video even possible

4:04 that congratulations was so precious 🥰

Just imagine the efforts he put in this single video so hardworking of a persin you are Mark..loved it.

I would have never thought that dropping an egg from space could be so inspiring.

My specialty is firearms but I feel for the expert here. How many times has someone come to me with some “great idea” and then I go “that’s at least ten years in prison”

Dew it

Underrated comment

any crazy ideas you can tell us about? that sounds hilarious

@Spicy Potatoes you can turn a common 22 rifle into a gatling gun with youtube videos, I don't think it's quite legal but I'm not the expert and are super cool.

Led me to think

I love seeing his pure passion for science. So inspiring.

Very cool. I absolutely love your passion and energy along with your disire to teach. You make this stuff so much fun.

17:07 not only educational but motivational as heaven ❤

Congrats to you and all the team, it's a great success of intelligence, perseverance and courage.

Wow. I appreciate you and your entire team's hard work and dedication. It doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated!

I was a slacker back in school. I literally just put the egg in cardboard box and filled it with packing peanuts. Worked like a charm 👍🏻

I love how you didn’t give up you kept going. True persistence

I really enjoy this video and really happy with all the efforts you all have done..you guys never give up despite all the failures i really admire you guys...

I absolutely love how you bring childlike excitement and wonderment to such a wonderful experiment. It definitely reminds me when I tried to make a parachute for my GI Joe that I threw off the roof of my house over 45 years ago. However, I must say that ol’ Joe didn’t get a very comfortable landing as your eggs did. But it didn’t matter, what mattered was that I tried and all the excitement built up just for that one simple test. Of course it was the only test I got to do because my Mom wasn’t as enthused about me being on the roof of the house 30’ in the air:) Totally worth it!!!

Y'all are so so so talented and the way u said that u learned all of this from self learn is amazing y'all are so so so so underrated

That section with Adam was hilarious, the way he pointed out that you were making a guided missile made me laugh!! So cool to be able to call someone like that too

It would have been hilarious if he had actually gone through with the guided missile concept

lol that was hilarious.

Guided missiles are Tight!

Guided missiles are super easy, barely an inconvenience!

Wow just Wow 👍👍

That's awesome you accomplished it Mark & team :) And pretty cool you could talk with one of the leads at NASA on the project you worked on. I'm sure he could remind you of some things you may have been exposed to and now got a chance to dive deeper into those concepts & apply them :) Very cool~

In my class, back in the 80s, they had us design an egg drop with a coffee can. I filled it with water and called it a day. The teacher told my parents I wasn’t putting in the effort. Then the day of the egg drop, the only eggs that survived were ones with parachutes (which was technically against the rules), and my can of water. 🤣

Wow, amazing video. I also have a huge amount of admiration for your team for creating the toy box. Such a fantastic idea in a world where kids are stuck watching screens. STEM is the future. I would think a science class with a kit for every 3 or 4 students making the toys would work as they built them as a team. Wouldn't it be great if we funded schools to the point every student could built one a month as part of the class.

Not only educational, but this was a great story! Great video!

You know there is a very wide variety of stuff to watch on YouTube, but none of it can even match the amazing stuff you do.🎉

I think the best part of this whole video is how many times the project failed. That really shows just how much perseverance and dedication Mark has to these things.

And how everything that went wrong could've been avoided by going with the beach ball in the first place. XD

@The Beaver Kidd but beach ball isnt a mark rober video that gets 20 million views

@The Beaver Kidd beach balls really are the best

That I can agree with

Yeah hasn't uploaded in 3 weeks .. To deliver us great content 👌

This was a fantastic, explanatory video that we watched with the family. We liked how you never gave up and problem solved. Great work! Thank you!

I was really hoping that the end of the video would be the bunch of you enjoying a few bites each of an omelette made from the dropped eggs and quite literally savouring your achievement.

This is literally inspiring. Failing and continuing to go is the absolute definition of an engineer. My goal is to be a Software Engineer. I have a learning disability. It makes school extremely difficult. I have failed constantly but won’t give up

Your videos are always so entertaining but this one is actually inspiring. The world is a better place with you in it.

my heart goes out to all the crews that crunched for this incredible project... rocket preparations seem like an exciting nightmare

I love that you spent three years on this and built a rocket, but ultimately the beachball and packing peanuts worked just as well

That's just engineering, baby!

The dedication of the team and the production of this content is amazing!

I love how even after all you and your friends combined accomplishments, you all still love nerding over dropping an egg from really really high up

Using your parting gift of a portion of the parachute on the Nasa rover, to be sewn into a new chute for your scaled down landing was rather sweet. Actually made me a little emotional.

I love how his videos are really entertaining, but he also shows lessons with his videos too.

I just have to wonder how many eggs they went through doing this experiment.

The Most Phenomenal thing about this is that this didnt feel like a youtube video, it felt like it was a documentary about a mission with such a high hill to overcome it felt impossible.

...you could say it was a...mission...impossible?

He does one a month!

It felt exactly like a YouTube video

There are many documentaries uploaded to youtube! The University of Southern California has a rocket program run by students, and a few years ago they uploaded a documentary they made detailing their sounding rocket that was able to reach space via powered thrust.

one day I would love to go to space it has always fascinated me and physics of it all is phenomenal

YOU MADE THE BEST PROJECT EVER AND I LOVE ‘em!❤

This is a very inspirational video for engineering undergraduates. I immensely thank full to Mark

U GUYS HAVE NO IDEA THE ROLLER COASTER OF EMOTIONS I HAD IN THAT FEW MIN OF MY LIFE. 😅 I WAS LITERALLY SMILING (I didn’t even realise until the video ended) WHEN BOTH EGGS WERE NOT CRACK BRO. 😂 GG ❤🎉❤

Your work is outstanding, I am a big fan

Marks video here is a perfect example of "you don't lose, you learn"

trueee

You lose but you learned. You don't want to lose something? then you will never learn.

I'm glad he included footage of his disappointment and frustration.

Hello

... and if you can afford it, try again.

Incredible, amazing to watch, I felt every moment alongside you all xxxxxx

What I got from this whole thing is.....Never Give Up!!! You only fail if you give up. Very inspiring video 👏🎉

Great video! I wanna say how much better this is than the teaching our school system gives us, while still making it funny, interesting, and enjoyable.

As one that has launched weather balloons with various Amateur Radio devices attached, watching your various emotional ups and downs, brought back fond memories, and the adrenalin rushes one gets from anticipating the unknown ! Congratulations ! So cool ! Appreciate your work, and thinking outside the box ! Been there, done that !! ⚪ I 🙄

I love your videos! I am currently just a newbie at programming, recently completed a year on Scratch and I dream of becoming an engineer like you! I have a challenge:- Do a challenge but only using scratch and its physical extensions.

No way! So cool to see Joe in this video, was not expecting that!

Alan Walker?!?!?! Hiiiiiiiiii

Joe who ?

Wait...what?

ratio

Hello alan♥️♥️♥️♥️😍♥️🤍

Another great video, thanks! I’m curious, you mention the egg was hot from the drop, was it still raw inside or did it cook itself?

This ss sooo cool. I love that you show your process. Engineering Rocks!

Your endeavor is such an inspiration for me. Thanks! ❤️👍

Your crunchlabs box is the most genius and coolest idea I have seen in a very long time 🔥🔥🔥 if I had kids I’d buy it for them.

Love how the information Mark needed to help his “precision guided missle” was literally CLASSIFIED

I have access to that information and i could give it away for certain amount of BTC

Mr. Green's videos are becoming real lol

@Luis Sierra ye sure

The egg knows where it is at all times, because it knows where it isn't. 😁

@Luis Sierra How to put yourself on a government watchlist in a single sentence

I am not a physicist at all, but this video was surprisingly intriguing to watch.

They made a great job!! 👏👏

Wonderful inspiration. Thank you so much.

I was amazed at those engineer's simplicity to help you out .

Mark can engineer an egg to drop from space without breaking. Meanwhile, I can't get my eggs home from the grocery store without one of them breaking. Engineer 1🥚 Egghead neuroscientist 0 🍳 That said, my egg goal is to dive deep into how we each transform from 1 egg to 30 trillion cells. Vids forthcoming. 🧠⚡

woah you really are a neuroscientist and from Harvard. crazy. just checked your Gscholar. Subbed. Start posting vids my guy!

i always find a broken egg in my carton. :(

It's awesome to see real scientists and doctors tune into Mark's vids. I love this community!

@clemente pittsburgian I did the same. I'm majoring in neuroscience and would like to see cooler neuro channels come out. Huberman is too boring for me lol.

MSMEG IX but that’s what you think

Imagine beeing a pilot cruising at 36.000 ft. when suddenly an egg drops onto the windshield of your plane

OK, you are seriously doing some amazing things, in particular for children! Bravo!

This was awesome. Not just science, but great life lessons. My child is 4. When he grows up, this is what I want him to do.

I like how rotating paper thin wings on a big dart is considered guided missile

It's insane to realize halfway that what they were trying to make so hard, essentially covered the basics for a Kinetic Orbital Strike weapon.

Whoopsie

Not even close mate.

Wow! 22k comments in 3 DAYS!! You AMAZING!

Wrong terminology. It was never designed to reach orbit.

@TV the Cow House yeah but it sounds cool and sci-fi

This goes to show that integrated and end to end testing is important and engineers are notorious for ignoring this.

You guys are so nice!

I love your motivation of doing the impossible to possible base for some theory. ❤

These videos make me proud of being an engineer

I just can say wow... and when they found it is safe.. i clapped laughing like" yeah.. they did it" ❤

The precision guided missile part was the icing on the cake lol

Crazy how he still monetized the illegal content he confessed was illegal. Smaller youtubers wouldn't get away with that, but this guy knows people and has money so I guess it is okay

@Sabrina Kingsley crazy how there was no illegal content.

Necrotron Commenting Unit bot

@Sabrina Kingsley bruh what

@Sabrina Kingsley Er what? It was stated that creating and distribute a how to, on how to create a precision guided missile was illegal; He neither created, nor distributed how to create a precision guided missile. He made and demonstrated a FAILED prototype, but since it wasn't working, it doesn't count as an actual missile legally... nor did he explain how they made it either, he went over the core concepts, but not how it was put together.

If I ever did something as cool as this I would’ve do everything he does but let the egg land on grass(if you’ve seen,apparently it’s impossible to break an egg on grass). And if that didn’t work I would have a second egg doing his method! This is an awesome video!

The egg drop tube looks and functions hysterically like the one I made for my high school egg drop - overkill as it was just being dropped off the gym roof XD

This is SO cool! I love learning, science, and

Just remember, “engineers do not make mistakes, we make revisions”.

love it bro, so respect on your project.

The fact that this 26 minute video was 3 years in the making is insane to me

Why do you want to go home?

It really puts into perspective how many projects mark is working on at one time. Every single month is a fantastic upload from him. He has to have an absolutely crammed schedule.

WAIT IT WAS 3 YEARS !?!!??

@Cheeseoogus not 3 years of 40 hpur weeks. 3 years from conception to filming. Probably a couple hundred hours actual work.

@Big Brother Mars Lol

Kudos for the efforts 💯

Relatives : What do you do to earn ? Mark: I drop an egg from space 😎

So much love and respect for you bro! Keep scienceing it out 😅

That was absolutely AWESOME!!!!

when you realize how much it became causual to experiment even small experiments from space 😊

I absolutely never heard of balloons being sent to space on daily basis around the world. Thanks

Not space impossible since the earth is an enclosed system that is how you can breathe, but very high altitude nonetheless

😂 +1

@MrKidAtHeart enclosed huh? Interesting, so you don’t believe say, rockets actually go to space?

​@riotI think he is saying that a balloon can't break through the atmosphere

I love your vids Mark I hope your life goes perfect thank you for telling us important lessons and thank you for building a cool toys for kids just to be like you

You should have make the protector which heats it enough and when it comes back hatch it, it would be a world record of its own.

You just demonstrated every engineering process perfectly! Understand the challenge, and find a solution, even with retries. And, you just invalidated all egg drop competitions and colleges around the globe now have to find a new competition! ;-)

What an awesome video!! So many ups and downs! But we got there in the end Mark your a blessing to humanity and for you to take your knowledge and spread it to the world 🌍🌎 is a genuine godsent gift for us all! Thanks a million!

That's pretty awesome!

"Which was surprising because Joe had definitely run through a lot of analysis and testing before coming here. So after conducting a thorough review of the footage and firmware he was able to locate and fix a single rogue negative sign in the code that seemed to be causing all the control issues" - The perfect description of my entire engineering degree

I related to this with computer science

So classic that it hurts

Flipped greater than and less than signs can also give me the same problem.

Who asked

@StondeBeyond the classic semicolon strikes again!
