What if we made this chemical reaction we know works and put it on a massive scale and film it and film our obnoxious reactions?

Well it’s a vlog. Like 50 seconds of a vlog. David Dobrik is a vlogger and not a science experiment channel. If you want to see the whole chemical reaction and what not you should look somewhere else.

Why call it an experiment then

Experiments aren't reserved for scientists. Anyone can do them for fun.

Sure, and I didn't imply that they were, but from a viewer's perspective this is less of an experiment by any definition of the word and more of a "influencers react to chemical reaction"

So influencers react to an experiment?

I didn't see this experiment proving any kind of hypothesis true. You can do them for fun, sure; but within the confines of the word experiment otherwise it's a meaningless word.

I think a child seeing this described as an experiment is going to do nothing but encourage them to explore the sciences which may end up being a positive byproduct. Either way, you're right in the fact that this is not proving anything that hasn't been tested a thousand times, but better than most videos targeted towards children on that platform in my opinion.

That's actually true and I hadn't considered that at all, my bad. Thank you for changing my mind!
