History
The first fiber tip pen was invented by Yukio Horie in 1962 in Japan. A highlighter is a fiber tip pen filled with transparent brightly coloured ink. The Avery Dennison Corporation trademarked the name Hi-Liter, they invented the name highlighter, but they did not invent the pen.
A highlighter is a form of fiber tip pen which is used to highlight sections of documents in a vivid colour, while leaving the content beneath the marking unobscured. As such, highlighter ink is translucent.

Was binge watching these, have to say this was the highlight of the night
-
Why do I want confetti with my Highlighter? Am I gonna have a party in the middle of a test?
-
"The weight of 350 elephants" Pretty standard measurement of weight...
-
Drop down a "Shaft" while a robotic arm "Thrusts". Wow, I didn't know making highlighters were so dirty XD
-
Woah, woah, MY 3-In-One highlighters in elementary school never had glitter in them. Where's my glitter, huh??
-
This video was the highlight of my afternoon.
-
the confetti is used to distract people from the crappy design of the mini 3 case marker .
-
dropped into a shaft, thrusted into the barrel... That sounds about right ^^

Why are the narrations always telling us how much force is exerted by comparing it to how many elephants would weigh as much? I don't know how much an elephant weighs. I dont own an elephant, and I don't personally know anyone who owns one, aside from perhaps the local zoo. FFS, use something more practical, like a car maybe? Or, I don't know, kilograms or pounds, something with which most humans are familiar?

shaft and thrust, in one sentence followed by plug? uhh....
-
Manager: Okay guys! We got a BLUE mini-marker, now we need to choose a colour for a fitting cap! Worker: How about a PURPLE cap? Manager: Brilliant...

I'd love to keep that giant roll of paper they use for testing.

Since when is purple considered fuchsia? Also, those triangle ones look so 90s.
-
The word nib. It is mesmerizing.

Highlighter has 3 sides with 3 pens. Triangle has 3 sides and 3 points. Loominarty is triangle. Coincidence? I think not. Highlighter lominart 1871 conferminted

"The principle highlighted by this pen" Huehue.

the robotic arm thrusts the ink resevoirs into the shaft then it's back end get's plugged... so kinky.
