In what might be the biggest YouTube hit of 2016, the Hydraulic Press Channel is back with another video.

This time, the channel smashes a gigantic jawbreaker with the press.

In the first attempt, the jawbreaker easily breaks into several pieces.

“That was too easy and not satisfying. I think we must do something a bit more dangerous,” the Finnish press operator says of the jawbreaker, or “yavbreaker,” as he puts it.

“I take one more try with this one and then we will try something a bit more special,” he adds before smashing one hemisphere of the jawbreaker in a more satisfying attempt.

“That was a bit more like it. Now, it is ready to eat,” he says.

He then microwaved another giant jawbreaker, which “squirted out some nasty-looking liquid and now we are going to press it.”

And that one turns out to be the most satisfying of them all.

The Hydraulic Press Channel uploaded its first video six months ago, and now, it already has 501,000 subscribers and tens of millions of views.
