This video is reminiscent of something Carl Sagan would make. Its about how scientists are only now discovering how various matters change when exposed to pressures that were previously impossible to achieve (with the help of giant lasers).

This is quality science edutainment, not a hydraulic press crushing batteries.

Yeah, I was just making a joke that this technological advancement will be used for menial entertainment.
