Do we really need another YouTube channel squishing things?

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.
