I got a gaylord of cans from my buddy who had been saving his cans for a decade. It took me 40 hours to melt down this massive amount of cans, and another 10 hours of cleanup, editing, and side work on this project. I hope you enjoy this massive can meltdown to end all massive can meltdowns as much as I did making it!

    Your buddy needs credit for not littering all of these cans throughout the years.
  • @SeanBrown22
    I think we can all agree that the most impressive part of this video is your perseverance. Thanks for the entertainment!
  • @BrandonTConklin
    I don't know what I am more surprised with: the amount of bars you made or all the death statues you keep summoning
  • @herbdailey5900
    That shelf is so gonna break at 3am and scare the crap out of you. Great video!

    Hey all you beautiful people! This was a MASSIVE project that took me a few weeks to orchestrate and conduct, and cram into just under 16 minutes. Melting cans takes a long time, but melting over 8,000 cans takes even longer 😂. I hope you all enjoy watching this madness as much as I did creating it. Let me know what you think of the video and stay awesome my friends 👍 Update: After my buddy watched the video, he texted me and said “I said that was 2 years of camping, not 10 lol” 😬 I thought he said 10 when he dropped them off. Wanted to clarify…

    This is by far the "greatest aluminum can meltdown" on YouTube... Thanks for the time and effort you put into this project... I love it to "DEATH"

    Fun to watch. Not sure the propane guy hates his best customer.
  • Where I live in Australia, a single can is worth 10 cents when recycled at a depot. You’d be looking at $840.50 AUD right there!
  • @doriWyo
    Now THAT is something not even BigstackD has tackled! Fun to watch, too.
  • @rejected5925
    Loved how you could see the shelf bend an inch or so at the end 😂
  • @pryordvm
    Brother that shelf is STRUGGLING! Great vid, great bars, great stack. Love it.
  • bro, how many of those grim reapers do you have? 🤣🤣🤣 I thought it was funny how you would just put them right next to the cooling aluminum ingots and kick them when they'd begin to melt into it. for sure a great video to watch. thanks for the content.
  • @kevkev5935
    This was awesome. Not sure what is more incredible though. Your patience to melt down thousands of cans, or how much fun your buddy has had on his camping trips.
  • @sgibbons77
    In my estimation, 500+ cans is a massive melt. This was a MEGA melt! And I loved your supporting cast - you always come up with great ways of enhancing your content. Thank you for all your efforts!
  • @bmo14lax
    The grim reaper statues threw me off for sure 😂
  • @blake2517
    This video is sick! Amazing patience and persistence through this. Love seeing that pile of melted blocks

    I love metal in ingot form. And I love to watch when others pour something good out of metallic "waste" or just make ingots. Doesn't always have to be gold bullion. A 10KG copper bar costs about 75 euros in Germany (my home country). Aluminum also has its value, it's the quantity that counts. I've seen other "metalsmiths" heat up the mold with a gas burner before casting, then you'll get a better result after it cools down. Maybe I could give you a little tip. Nice Greetz from GER

    It boggles my mind that more than one of these ASMR meltdown channels exist.

    I used to smelt aluminum cans and magnesium together in a factory with Flux in two pits pouring 10 ingots at a time. This is long, tedious, and potentially dangerous work. Hats off to you good sir.
