Outlines
🛠️ Transforming One-Star Toys into Five-Star Military Nightmares
The narrator, an engineer, recounts being disappointed by a toy as a child and now, with his engineering skills, sets out to turn one-star toys into high-quality, military-grade nightmares. He introduces an event called 'Open Sauce' featuring science YouTubers and offers a discount code for attendees. The first toy, 'Baby Aot,' is a pooping doll with many negative reviews. The narrator modifies it by connecting it to a propane tank and a taser, and adds an infrared thermometer to detect when someone approaches, resulting in a flamethrower baby that emits flames when activated.
🚜 Upgrading Remote Control Tank with a Piston Knife
The engineer addresses a one-star review of a remote control M1 A2 abram tank, which the reviewer claimed was unsuitable for tactical warfare. To enhance the tank, the narrator replaces the turret with a piston knife, attaches it using a 3D printed expander, and wires it for remote operation. He then modifies the tank to include thermal sensors for heat-seeking capabilities, enabling it to detect and chase warm objects. The tank successfully targets and 'kills' a bottle of body-temperature liquid and a hot rotisserie chicken, but the wife only rates it a 7 out of 10 for nightmare potential.
🤖 Enhancing a Robot Turret with a Thermal Camera and Psychological Warfare
Sponsored by Mark Rober's Crunch Lab, the engineer receives a robot turret kit and aims to transform it into a military nightmare. He adds a 64-pixel thermal camera for automatic tracking and reprograms the robot for autonomous operation. The turret learns to follow the warmest part of the human body, leading to humorous situations. To increase the nightmare factor, the narrator 3D prints an offensive word and attaches it to the robot, creating psychological warfare. The wife rates it a 1 out of 10 for nightmare potential, and the video ends with a promotion for the Hack Pack and a correction on the rating scale.
🎯 Creating a Missile-Guided Racing Drone for Destruction
The engineer builds a racing drone with the intention of making it smash into objects at high speeds. He constructs a homemade missile guidance system using TV remote components, creating a 'Drone eyeball' and an infrared beacon for the drone to seek out. After days of programming and testing, the drone is able to follow the sensor and destroy a target at 200 mph. The video concludes with the narrator expressing excitement for Open Sauce, an event for makers and engineers, and encourages viewers to buy tickets for the upcoming event featuring notable YouTubers and a community of creators.

I got scammed by Toys R Us when I was 10
the commercial I watched was a lie this
is what it actually looks like onear toy
but I'm an engineer now so I don't have
to settle for onear trash I actually
have the skills now to make them EP so
I'm going to spend the next week turning
onestar toys into five-star heat seeking
military nightmares the Only Rule is I
have to try my best and if I don't my
wife will throw away the brand new five
star toy that I want to turn into a 10
star military
nightmare last year I started the
greatest two-day science forever called
open sace and everyone that came got to
meet or see their favorite science
YouTubers because everybody was there
like Michael Reeves Mark Rober styropyro
Colin Furs and even Adam zavid my
childhood hero plus like a hundred more
Open sauce is happening again very soon
this June 15th and 16th so get your
tickets now because we're already
selling out last year we sold out a week
before the event so do not wait get your
tickets now the first 50 people to use
the following code get $50 off their
order dog balls I run the event I can
make the coupon codes whatever I want I
promise it will be the most fun you have
all summer the first onear product is
called Baby aot you're probably already
familiar with this toy it's the infamous
pooping doll kind of hard to ignore a
toy that was literally engineered to
Shard itself and there's a lot of
one-star reviews ranging from your kid
does not need this just get a regular
baby doll to it loged the doll up she
only got to try it twice and then
there's my personal favorite daughter
fed the baby and didn't immediately take
the diaper off mold grew all inside the
doll which smelled horrible and made her
feel
sick it comes with everything you need
to simulate changing a baby's dirty
diaper the diaper goes on food powder
water you shake it up and then you feed
your
[Music]
baby we take the diaper off
[Laughter]
this toy is already a nightmare but the
first step into turning this baby into a
military nightmare is to connect it to a
can of
propane
okay she looks fine oh also a taser I
forgot the taser the second and most
important step is to detect when a
person walks in front of the baby which
we can do super easily with this
infrared non-c contct thermometer the
ground is 67
but my leg it measures
83 you want the laser gun here you get
the laser gun what do you
think open the thermometer look for an
output signal give
up remove the temperature sensor install
opamp calculate gain noninverting input
inverting input engineering God it's
done and it might be the biggest
nightmare of anything I've ever made in
my entire life just because of how it
looks taser flamethrower baby what it's
not even that's not a name does it need
a name look at that looks excellent
flame vomit look look this is sick it's
a this is a nightmare it has a cyborg
temperature sensing eye sensors don't
just work every part of your body is a
different temperature but generally you
are warmer than everything around you so
if we measure the average temperature
over time and compare it to the
instantaneous temperature right now we
get a pretty good indication that
something warm moved in front of the
sensor I had to wrap everything in
aluminum foil because the taser was
emping the Arduino and locking it up
it's got an Arduino it's got a relay
it's got wo leveret 1 2 three four holes
in its skull that's a new record gang
when someone steps in front of the doll
it shoots Flames at them but there's one
problem the flame seems to be activating
the heat sensor I should have seen that
one coming when I put my hand in front
of the sensor
oh wa that worked really well hey there
little buddy what's oh my
God come here give me why isn't it
lighting I hate this feels like there's
lots of gas left this is terrifying it's
unreliable where's the laser there's the
you see the laser oh there it goes okay
the lips are like burning weird colors
it's like some green you see the
green what is that is that the copper
but does my wife think it's a military
nightmare what does that look like to
you Terminator get closer Don't Be
Afraid what is it
doing get
closer
what well there's nothing standing in
front of you why are you
tasing safety is our number one priority
nightmare points how many nightmare
points do I get Night 10 out of 10 10
out of 10 nightmare points I'm Shing 10
out of 10 I didn't think I was going to
get a perfect 10 out of 10 on the First
toy let's go let's go let's go let's go
let's go I see an epic toy in our future
at this rate we're killing this box is
very important pay attention to the Box
the next toy is a remote control tank
specifically the M1 A2 abam I don't know
what that means but Chad from Amazon
hates it whose onear review says this
tank is not suitable for tactical
Warfare I used it while at a BB gun
Arena and the impact of the shots could
not be noticed and since it is small
people stepped on it and broke I don't
know what Chad's talking about this tank
seems very high quality it has metal
tank track so it can drive over anything
here kitty kitty here kitty
kitty it shoots
BB it even makes smoke like a real tank
this thing's sick does it hurt I feel
like this might actually
hurt no I mean
no no it doesn't hurt but I could make
it hurt Chad from Amazon I could make it
so nobody ever steps on your tank again
Chad here's what I'm thinking we take
our tank remove the turret and replace
it with something that can cause real
damage oh let's go I'm going to attach
the knife using this little 3D printed
expander I made you screw it onto the
nut that's captured inside but the hole
for the screw gets narrower towards the
top as you spin it the gaps start
opening up and it bites into the outer
edge I don't know if you can see that
shove that in there tighten tighten
tighten piston knife test one
oh can you press this button for me
please yes whenever you're ready press
it
please oh let's go it worked perfectly
yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes oh I
lost a knife again now we just need to
connect the Piston knife to the tank
using the only method we know CAD 3D
printing spend 30 minutes removing seven
screws remove move the old crappy turret
cracker open 3D printing screw screw
screw screw glue glue glue glue screw
screw screw screw is how I ended up with
you screw
screw every time I got to be honest with
you guys I really hate wiring up
Electronics this took me like 4 hours is
it going to work is it going to please
God work please God work it
is yes oh my god it works one thermal
sensor let us detect if a person was
there two should let us chase a person
the tank is happy if both thermometers
see something hot otherwise it moves
towards the hottest thermometer finally
we stop moving when both thermometers
are
equal it's 700 a.m. it's a nice fresh
brand new day to keep doing what I've
been doing the past 12 hours I did not
go to bed last
night oh my God it heat seeks I am so
tired
drive to your dad little
tank there's no way for it to know that
it's about to drive off come to Popa
come to pop oh Psy oh
it still works this is a room
temperature bottle of Mountain Dew if I
put it in front of the tank nothing
happens this is a bottle of body
temperature liquid
106° I had to a microwave
[Music]
Jes oh no not me not me not me wow that
was so exciting that was so awesome I
love building killing machines disarm wa
that's a clean hole I don't I'm not
going to drink this crap so if you want
a Mountain Dew leave a comment down
below and I'll mail it to you safety
disengaged rotisserie chicken piping hot
I got to get up on this table to be safe
rotis chicken test all right
the tank is locking on the chicken's
running away for its life oh no oh no I
can't get away it's Dad it's dead it's
dead okay that looks that looks bad
there's chunks of chicken in the tank
treads oh that's disgusting this was why
did I do this but does my wife think
it's a military nightmare come on come
on let me show you something really cool
you just come a little bit more yeah
like another foot one more foot
yeah I I don't know what's wrong what's
wrong wait now come back how many
nightmare points I don't how
points what's wrong with you how many I
don't I could I don't know I don't
understand seven out 10 what seven out
of 10 that's how I passed High School
guys seven out of 10 I'm trying to be
happy with that the tank was way harder
to build 7 out of 10 it's not the worst
but it's what we like to call a box box
box box box box box box the next onear
toy is this remote control turret from
Mark robber's crunch lab they're
actually sponsoring this video but he
told me I could do and say whatever I
wanted this is an engineering kit you
build it yourself it has Electronics
it's pre-programmed they come with
stepbystep instructions and even a
follow along build video if you can't
read you can aim with this little
infrared remote and then shoot darts
boom you can upgrade your robot by
reprogramming it using the code they
give you that's the easiest way to learn
programming is by m in with something
that already works this is the toy I
dreamed of when I was a teenager it's
truly an amazing
product but it's not a military
nightmare but it's not a military
nightmare but it's not a military
nightmare but it's not a military
nightmare oops I already reprogrammed
it m that's good water the first step to
making a military nightmare is making it
automatic so I added a 64 pixel thermal
camera to the turret I'm literally
running a computer vision algorithm on
an Arduino here is the 64 pixel image
the camera sees first any pixel below a
certain temperature gets set to zero
then we find the center of the hot
pixels using a weighted average called
an image moment now just tell the motors
to move in a way that drives that
coordinate to the center of the image it
tracks if I walk back and forth and then
after a few seconds oh god oh blasted
thanks to this thermal camera I've
learned that my nuts are the hot part of
my body it refuses to point anywhere
else I have to angle it down so that the
turret points at my face nuts up nut
down nut up nut down how do I turn this
turret into a military nightmare I've
already done a knife I've already done a
flamethrower would I put an actual gun
on it Mark Rober GunBot we can't we
can't this is not going to support a gun
I but then I realized some of the most
nightmarish military experiments are
psychological warfare so I 3D printed a
bad mean swear word and attached it to
the robot you can't escape it you can't
escape it'll follow you it'll follow you
are you pointing at the lights I think
Mark Rover is going to like this hey
Mark I know you're watching this leave a
comment down below letting me know if
you like my invention but does my wife
think it's a military nightmare okay you
can open your
eyes try to get away from
it how much of a nightmare is this it's
like kind of cute what nightmare I say
one out of 10 one out of 10 okay I got a
one of 10 one there's no way I'm GNA be
able to upgrade my five star toy at this
rate so I 3D printed this card holder
I'm going to test these cards on my
friend Kevin with in what might be the
worst audio I've ever recorded in my
entire life I'm sorry Hey
Kevin I told you it was bad and he
didn't care and then he just then Kevin
started twerking at the robot I think
maybe I have to just eat the one star be
one of the first to get your hands on
the hack pack you can order now before
it's sold out by going to Crunch
labs.com Willam Osman thank you to
Crunch labs for sponsoring this
video Hey There It Is Well good news is
I actually said the score was supposed
to be at of five not 10 so if we just
get rid of those and move that down
there bada bing bada boom six out of
five star
average what are you doing
I'm
filming uh I a concern no what's in the
box William what's in the box Willam
what's in the bo what's in the bo what's
in the bo all the parts needed to build
a racing drone I'm so excited for this
you guys we're going to jail drones are
great for aerial video and photo
companies are researching how to deliver
stuff with them and some people even
race them for sport I want to make my
drone smash into stuff at 200 mph I'm
talking total obliteration you have to
buy a new drone every single time but
hitting something with a drone is going
to be really hard have you ever seen the
laser designators they use to guide
missiles to the Target we point the
laser at an object the Drone sees it and
attacks laser designator is military
technology you can't just buy that on
Amazon but you can build one using stuff
laying around the house like TV remotes
I built a missile guidance system out of
TV remote yes Mr President I figured out
how to save America about $10 billion a
year this is a TV V receiver it's the
thing that detects your remote control
the first step is to combine four of
them into a drone eyeball the second
step is to build the infrared Beacon
that the Drone is going to seek out it
generates the specific pulses required
for the Drone eyeball to work instead of
using an actual laser we're just making
the point of the laser with an LED this
works way too well you see it gets kind
of stuck in the middle there's like a
major warping that's happening and then
we tried farther so it's a little more
sporadic but it's definitely working
stop stop he's all the way at the gate
now I'm just rotating the sensor yeah
this is this is nuts like probably 120
degree range this is the Drone it's got
the new sensor with eight pixels total
and a wider Backle so it can see
straight out the side the transmitter
talks to the receiver which talks to the
Arduino which talks to the flight
controller when the Arduino sees this
button triggered it starts modifying the
channel Data before sending it to the
flight controller I then begin testing
and tuning the Drone this is test number
one I have it's just a drone I got James
here on the call so he can call 911 when
my head gets cut
[Music]
off oh oh God God okay I hate something
is not right here eventually I got it to
hover instead of smashing into the
ceiling hey let's fast forward a couple
days and see how William's
doing
oh is that a drone sh
but after several more days of
programming it totally works the Drone
follows the sensor and it's not perfect
I think that has to do with how big the
dead band is in the middle that's future
me's problem let's see if we can destroy
something I don't want to work on this
anymore it's not going to hit potato
right after two weeks of hard work my
drone finally decided to kill
itself you ready Kevin yeah I'm ready
[Music]
yeah dude you're like a snake charmer
all I'm doing is holding down the auto
track button it's doing all this on its
own all we have left to do is obliterate
a Target at 200 mph I love that there's
trash everywhere we taped the IR
tracking Beacon to a Target then I put
it in tracking mode and gave it some
forward Throttle auto mode engaged
[Music]
whoa
dude first try it didn't do a great job
what's the damage what's Nice Nice Slice
in the uh ornament oh we got the
ornament bang on didn't even hit the
LEDs no knock the battery out though
it's not like
good dude it's a drone that like tracks
the light that's pretty
cool I don't really want to work on this
one anymore everything I built in this
video is coming with me up to open sace
this June 15th and 16 because it really
is the world's greatest science fair if
you love engineering or cool robots or
just want to meet your favorite
YouTubers you should buy your tickets to
open sace now at opens sauce.com I never
really had a community of makers when I
was growing up nobody around me built
things no one cared about engineering
and I found that here on YouTube I could
make stuff and share it with people that
also like to make stuff and then I made
friends doing it like Michael Reeves and
the backyard scientists Alan pan Mark
Rober there's sorry if I didn't name you
there's so many people that I've met
through YouTube and this engineering
community and I wanted to make a place
that we could all get together to show
off cool things we've built and meet the
people we look up to if you look at the
roster of people and see someone on
there like I would love to meet that
person that's also how I feel these are
people that I also look up to I watch
their videos I'm inspired by what they
build and I'm going to open sauce so I
can see them and meet them and Adam
Savage is coming that's like my
childhood hero that I get to see and
maybe even talk to nothing like Open
sauce exists anywhere and it only exists
because of you guys and I'm really
thankful for that so if you're into
engineering if you're into science and
you want something really cool to do
this summer in 2 weeks maybe less than 2
weeks if you're watching this go to
opens sauce.com and buy a ticket there's
general admission there's premium
admission there's industry day vip's
already sold out sorry if that's what
you wanted to do but any of those
tickets are a great choice and if you
want to save 50 bucks you can use code
dog balls because once again I run the
event I'll see you at Open sauce at Cal
Palace in San Francisco June 15th and
16th and if you can't make it that's
fine but if you ever want to come to
open sauce in the future I need your
support we have open sace at home.com
that is all the content material that's
filmed at opens sauce available to you
for $40 or 20 bucks right now it's 20
bucks that includes all the panels from
last year too opens sauce.com buy your
tickets right now before we sell out and
I will see you this June 15th and 16th
