See also: Apprentices. There's a slightly different relationship between a "master" (ie. a very skilled professional) and an apprentice, once which is different than teacher and student although it obviously shares some features, too. And, unless I miss my guess, it's not every skilled professional who would consider taking on more than one or two apprentices at the same time, but if that is possible it should tend to have a harmonic effect in terms of how learning happens. In other words, the peer group for 5 people (master and apprentices included) is likely to lead to everyone getting smarter at a faster rate than a group as small as 2 or 3.

This is true in engineering, too. Cal's perspective is the difference between people who are "paper experts" and people that you ask something and they casually give you the expert answer. A lot of people walk away from failures to start over ASAP. But good companies give their employees room to fail and explore those failures. So often, there are very important lessons in failures. This is why you see a lot of software teams hiring "chaos engineers" to purposely come break things in the infrastructure. "What happens when we hack this? What happens if our backup is shut down? What if ... what if ... what if ... ?" You can explore those questions "for free" when you are post-failure, but too many companies see this as a waste of time. They are thinking only about the deadline and getting the project complete with this "new setback," but knowledge lost to exploring "what went wrong" can prove to be much, much more valuable in the long run.

That last bit about failure Cal was talking about is pretty much spot on for any kind of learned skill. I love painting, but any kind of new technique I learn (blending, shading, medium etc) generally starts with failure and experimentation 🤙

This was all so beautiful. The experiment itself, how you presented glasswork, Cal's failure-success philosophy... Thanks, man, this was great.

Really love the way cal runs his shop. Very focused and serious, making sure all the apprentices understand the safety aspects. But at the same time he was never rude, never belittling. He's the kind of teacher that you know knows his stuff, but you're not scared of him, you're scared to disappoint him.

I am a glass artist myself and I did know about the "rubbery plateau" I just didn't realise I knew. Also I love the idea of continuing to work on something after it has "failed". Not only does this mean you can find out about other ways it can fail, as the artist says, it must also be really freeing. You can try something mad and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Who knows where that could take you? Thank you, your team and all those involved so much for this.

problem solving through intentional failure. I use it all the time in machine operation. I was given prototype production machinery and tasked with making it run optimally and profitably. I used intentional failure to understand its limits. if you know what causes something to fail, you can now understand how to make it work. I forced failure on both extremes to find its optimal operation range. its a great trouble shooting tool.

The quality of the content you put on here is the reason i don't pay for TV at home anymore. This is simply mind blowing.

Big thanks to Cal and his team. This was just amazing!

I love Cal's thoughts on failure. I've always had a similar outlook, maybe not to his extent, but still retaining the idea that failure is a REALLY good teacher. When I was teaching people in the trim carpentry field i always told the ppl i was teaching, "you are going to mess up, no doubt about it. Don't stress it, instead use it as a tool to figure out what not to do." I've learned way, waaaaay more by my mistakes than my successes.

I struggled in the past with the concept of "failing fast" as an excuse not to do one's homework ahead of time.

5:47 That type of glass is used today for Ruby Red neon tubing with various formulations. The ruby red color is from selenium in the form of cadmium selenide and another agent zinc sulfide its the heating that develops the color and if it is overheated can permanently turn clear. Some formulations of ruby red darken when heated so as every sharp bend of the tubing is darker as it was heated more than a sweeping bend such as in a "O". In the past ruby red neon tubing was made with particles of gold and was a beautiful blood red color - but very difficult to bend as it took a higher heat to work it. I've been making neon for over 40 years.

I agree, the artists have a deep meaningful connection with how the material works. It's fascinating.

Your depiction of the different forms of glass (PR drop, molten glass, not yet cooled glass container) on the viscosity/temperature curve was key to turning a simple number like temperature into a graphic of the interplay between the inherent physical properties of these various "states" of glass that must be in balance to achieve this goal. Great job not only on exploring this "What if..." path but also on illustrating it so elegantly.

My biology teacher in college was incredible, she always told us: "there is no such thing as a failed experiment, keep recording everything, because that data is still valuable and you can still learn from it". That stuck with me even when I was working at an auto parts store. "Go ahead try your risky idea, the part is already ruined, let's see what happens!"

Every single bit of visualisation in this video was top tier, aides the explanations perfectly

Smarter Every Day videos put my brain into the rubbery plateau of learning. Thanks for all you do, Destin.

For a very long time artists, artisans and craftsman where the only engineers and scientists. From pretty much the earliest use of fire and tools, our ancestors knew nothing of thermodynamics and gasses or how the material properties of stone worked. They learned how to use the fire for more than warmth and cooking, they learned how to chip stone all with intuition and how to pass those skills on before any kind of complex math or even writing. From there it was metallurgy, glass making and everything else centuries before the first engineers and scientists as we know them came about.

Sounds like a you problem 😂

This stuff is beautiful... Both the outcome and the process. My favorite part is hearing Cal describe how and why he uses the failures to learn, near the end of the video. I also like seeing Destin's approach to meeting new people. Not only with Cal, but also with Matt from Smarter Every Day. He has fostered new friendships in a unique way and we are all better for it. As someone about Destin's age, without a lot of deep friendships, I think back to my own life and ways that I could perhaps have invested more in others to HAVE those friendships now, but don't... And I'm trying to figure out the best way to cultivate those skills and qualities in my four kids.

Loved this video start to finish !

At 2 minutes in i got shivers of how exciting it is that I can simulate this in my head

Eleven years a go, Cal gave you something to work with... Eleven years later, you gave him back something truly wonderful to work with and add to his portfolio... THAT... Is Brilliant... A tremendous thing to happen you don't see often between Engineers and Artists... Nice one! 👌👏👏👏 😎🇬🇧

I love the idea of failing but still finishing so that you continue to learn. Especially if the material is just waste after a fail anyway. Going to take that lesson with me for the rest of my life.

Those are so incredibly beautiful. Really awesome work y'all.

It's amazing to see the power of molten glass and how it reacts with Prince Rupert's Drop. The slow-motion footage really captures the intricate details of the experiment and shows the incredible amount of force and energy involved. This video is a great example of how science can be both educational and entertaining. Keep up the great work!

$100,000 for #1 is definitley not letting it go, but I can see someone special acquiring it. What a cool journey! Thanks for capturing it Destin!

That lesson about intentionally committing to moments of failure as opportunities of learning is _deeply_ important. Doing that actually disconnects the experience of failure from being tied to your Amygdala's fear & survival response. This is preventing you from treating failure as a threat and instead embracing it as a way for your Prefrontal Cortex to gain a deeper understanding of the thing you're dealing with. It's one of the most important ways to deal with unknown unknowns and mastering something that you are deeply interested in, so hearing him talk so specifically about that process from a practical standpoint in an episode where you emphasize his intuitive sense of that over just the explicit statistical knowledge was REALLY fantastic!

between frames 2037.618 and 2037.833 at 20:29-:32 you can see the schlieren of the shockwave and elastic ripple of the molten glass from the drop AND GETTING CAPTURED by the transitional phase as stress.. that causes the blue coloring in the polariscope and the shockwaves Destin mentions at 25:29.. AWESOME. seeing something actually happen is so incredibly enlightening! keep up these awesome videos!

your Prince Rupert's drop video was 10 years ago... wow I just went back to watch it again to see Cal in it as well. I've shown so many people that video it was one of the greats!

Okay, that view of the final product using the polaroscope was *amazing*. So freaking pretty! Cal and his team are truly remarkable, and I'm so glad you got to document their skills and experience with your signature enthusiasm and curiosity. Thank you for the great work you do Destin-I've been watching your videos since I was 10, and I'm nearly 21 now! I remember the first Prince Rupert's Drop videos you made and I look forward to many more in the future :) You make the Internet a better place.

That dude looks like he's baked on life. Loving every minute of watching a master work on glass.

Its great seeing people enjoy their work so much

Seriously glued to my phone watching this one

Cool video, as always. Fun fact from near the beginning at about 5:53 aubergine is the french word for eggplant, might be why Destin hadn't heard that word before, it is also English for eggplant, but most Americans (and possibly other English speakers) just say eggplant.

26:59 What Cal said there made so much sense and taught me so much... I just cant explain it.... He is a genius and truely an Artist. How i wish I could learn so much more from him.. and not just about glass... about Life!!

This is my favorite episode ever, Destin! This is AMAZING!

watching a live performance from glas blowers is one of the strongest memories I have from a class trip in 3rd grade.

25:55 What a fantastic mindset Cal has. It would do me good to pick it up.
