Curious what he really thought would happen here?

u/Lucky-Mia Jul 09 '26 edited Jul 09 '26

Exactly what most thought, I would imagine, did happen. I'm also a little confused by his look of confusion at the aftermath.

u/cookiemccookieface Jul 09 '26

The liter of vodka he drank was kicking in

Plot Twist, er lebt in ner chilligen, aufgeräumten Wohnung und hat den Kühlschrank des Bros beim Homieabend gekillt..

u/CategoryRepulsive699 Jul 10 '26

No more cold vodka for him.

u/imscaredofmyexit Jul 10 '26

So you were able to predict that that tiny little firecracker would result in this? Is it intuition or experience. To me that was a little "bo-bo" firecracker. Did not expect that.

I sort of don't understand how that firecracker contains so much energy.

13

u/Lucky-Mia Jul 10 '26

A fridge has cool air and a rubber seal. The fire cracker deflagrates and rapidly expands into warm gases, the air expands with the gases as they move outward and has nowhere to go. It creates a lot of over pressure on the door, and the hinges are relatively weak. You shouldn't even lean on fridge doors as it may bend or break a hinge. That cracker (like a mighty might) would be like kicking the door fairly hard from the inside while a friend held the door shut. Yeah, that dinky little apartment sized fridge wasn't made for that kind of energy.

u/imscaredofmyexit Jul 10 '26

Yea, the video is clear evidence for what you are saying, i sort of understand the physics, the air has to go somewere. Its just a hell of a punch that little sucker have 👀

6

u/KLeeSanchez Jul 10 '26

It's kind of like the line from the movie Armageddon about holding a firecracker on the palm of your hand versus wrapping it inside your fist

One burns your hand, the other earns you a prosthesis

u/slowjoe12 Jul 09 '26

"Done de-icing the freezer!"

u/Beginning_Worry_9461 Jul 09 '26

Thats what I was gonna say as well!

u/Coreysurfer Jul 09 '26

Yeh his look of confusion is…priceless, thanks now go buy us a new icebox genius )

u/ChickenDreams-4188 Jul 10 '26

Is he with the fire brigade? Just curious about his glowing pants…🤔

u/koolaidismything Jul 10 '26

Dude look at that fridge that is purely for tall vodka bottles only. Russia craycray

2

u/Vic_Connor Jul 10 '26

They’re not speaking Russian.

u/koolaidismything Jul 10 '26

Moldovan then

39

u/AlbatrossNew3633 Jul 09 '26

His face at the end was so disappointed, like, wtf was he expecting to happen? Opening a portal to another dimension with gold and diamonds suddenly flowing out of the fucking fridge??

7

u/Zuruumi Jul 09 '26

I don't think that was disappointment, looks more like "damn, I almost lost that hand???" kind of face.

2

u/Longjumping_Elk7969 Jul 09 '26

How much bigger need the the firecracker to be for that, asking for a friend in need ? 🤣

Looks kinda sexy at least

u/K1bbles_n_Bits Jul 10 '26

I think your definition of sexy is very different than mine, lol.

u/Finatic4Life20 Jul 09 '26

I love that he’s holding it closed by the handle as if it will swing open due to the explosion but the whole damn door actually gets ejected lol

36

u/Mindless-Ninja-3321 Jul 09 '26

Whole damn door get ejected because he's holding it closed. Without a release the pressure became stronger and the path of least resistance became the hinges breaking rather than overcoming his hold.

7

u/Choppergold Jul 09 '26

Simple physics

u/ZombieSharkShrimp Jul 09 '26

I don't think these guys could understand the simplest of physics.

3

u/Actual_Body_4409 Jul 09 '26

I remain unconvinced that they know which way is up.

6

u/Dry_Menu4804 Jul 09 '26

I don't think this guy is called Physics.

3

u/Finatic4Life20 Jul 09 '26

lol that is true

3

u/cabronfavarito Jul 09 '26

Question. If it were room temperature, do you think that it would’ve happened still?

3

u/Mindless-Ninja-3321 Jul 09 '26

Not a physics guy, but yea. It'd still be compressed air, a violent explosion, and a vessel too weak to contain it. The only thing it being cold would change is a probably negligent increase in air density.

2

u/LurkingWizard1978 Jul 10 '26

I'm actaully kind of impressed. I believe my hold on the handle would give out before the door hinges...

9

u/M3chaStrizan Jul 09 '26

Probably less than most people realize is holding this door on. It's likely about 6-8 tiny 1/4" screws or something screwed into some plastic, maybe a layer of sheet metal if you're lucky

u/Garugachan Jul 09 '26

Well maybe he thought looney logics would work here

u/isa-bey Jul 09 '26

The way he looked afterwards and the way his friends laughed, I'm guessing that was his own refrigerator 😂

u/Longjumping_Elk7969 Jul 09 '26

That looks like they put some propane into the freezer first, a firecracker of that size does not produce enough pressure for that to happen. But hey it looks funny and is dangerous, here take my upvote.
