Smacking Two Metal Balls

IF YOU SMACK TWO FOCUSED AT SUCH A TO LITERALLY HAPPEN BECAUSE

A bald, bearded man in glasses demonstrates two heavy metal balls and a sheet of paper while explaining that their collision can focus enough heat to burn through the paper. The clip then cuts to his exaggerated reaction and footage of a powerful rifle firing, undercutting his claim that the result did not happen because he is strong. The absurd escalation makes it useful as a reaction to overconfident explanations. The audio features the atmospheric music of NBSPLV — “Lost Soul,” whose dramatic mood heightens the joke.

If you smack two heavy metal balls together, yeah! The energy of their collision will be focused at such a small point, and up heat can be produced to literally burn a hole through paper. Now that didn't happen because I'm so strong, even though I am.
