Worlds First “Silver Play Button” Chocolate Bars

Ok so this just happened! The world’s first chocolate YouTube play buttons, made at YouTube HQ, with the incredible YouTube staff…

…for my YouTube video!!! #honored

Has anything like this ever been done before?

I wanted to surprise the YouTube team with a special project. So I made vacuum formed molds, and silicone molds of a bonafide Silver play button award (Thanks again BoredShortsTV) and flew down to San Fransisco to spend the day at YouTube HQ.

What an amazing place! What an amazing group of people! And what an epic project.

Thanks YouTube .. for surpassing my wildest expectations!

Project Inspired By: A video I saw floating around Facebook last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHAPk97Mp5s

WARNING:

This video is only for entertainment purposes. If you rely on the information portrayed in this video, you assume the responsibility for the results. Have fun, but always think ahead, and remember that every project you try is at YOUR OWN RISK.

Project History & More Info:

I saw an awesome concept for a concealment shelf floating around Facebook last year (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHAPk97Mp5s) and thought it was great! Until I looked at the price.

I wondered if I could build something similar myself and save some money.

It took 1 full week of prototyping, and I pulled more inspiration from a website called Tactical Walls (https://tacticalwalls.com) and came up with my own version that looks great, works awesome, and gives peace of mind when something important needs to be hidden.

My shelf uses magnetic locks to keep it closed, and as easy as it seems to open, for anyone who doesn’t understand how it works, it’s deceptively difficult to open, even for adults.
