Glass Explosion at 343,000FPS! - The Slow Mo Guys 

turn on a flashlight in a dark room and see if you can see the light filling up the room in slow mo

So you're telling me you made a 5 second video 19.5hrs long and the glass handle still managed to crack ALMOST instantaneously? The progression of it breaking was obviously there but at an inconceivably high frame rate. Goes to show you how quickly things happened at atomic and subatomic levels.

7:30 The comparison between the water travelling towards the eye and the handle breaking is fantastic, and incredibly visual. Thank you

4:16 Gav: Super duper, extremo, bananza fast. Dan: Anymore adjectives? Or... Gav: *F L O O P I N '*

The glass went back to sand

Sorry for reupload. I accidentally uploaded an earlier version of the finished video. - Gav

Gav: "I wanna go faster." Dan: "It can't be done." Gav: "One day." Dan: "Do you ever stop to think that, yeah, you can but, should you?" *3 Years Later* Dan: "... and does 10 _trillion_ frames per second." Gav: "That's _thirteen_ zeroes."

6:28 I love that slowmo makes Dan ill. “I’m gonna be sick!” “that’s disgraceful!!” _“That’s vile”_

I lol'ed twice in this video. 1. "Floopin" 2. "yeah, you can... but (awkward hand on shoulder) should you?"

This is actually crazy, amazing to see how far technology has come. Each video completely blows my mind. Keep it up!

5.1 seconds = 19.5 hours of viedo? That is an insane framerate...

At 4:27 There is a bandage on his finger... A h e l l o k i t t y bandage

You should definitely film breaking Prince Rupert's Drops.

These guys never fail to amaze us

I appreciate the fact that RU-vid search results are smart enough that I can just type "slow mo guys floopin" and it knew exactly what I was talking about.

You guys should make a shirt that just says “Flippin’ Heck!” 😂

The glass literally couldn't HANDLE the stress

Whenever i watch their videos i pretend im the flash and im actually perceiving time really fast.

is anyone here from the longest 5 seconds on youtube

the slow mo shot of the water going into his eye is weirdly mesmerizing and beautiful

seeing as it cracked in 0.000104 seconds that means the crack travelled at about 3460km/h

Every American was confused for a split second when he said. " it's 38 degrees outside "

I could watch this for ages. It never gets old. The glass particles are so beautiful.

at the end he goes "thats the fastest we've ever filmed so far, im sure one day we'll exceed it", just posted filming light in slow mo. good job lads

The glass can't *"handle"* it

Haaa they should upload the 19hour version.... and then cut it JUST before it shatters LMAO!

2:16 *video is 1141x slower* me: *sets the video speed on 0.25x* boom. now it's 4564x slower xd

4:17 is the only thing that matters in the entire video.

Make 343,000 fps GIF's to 9GAG and you will cure more cancer than no doctor has ever cured.

Came here for dank FPS. Was not disappointed.

Currently just binging your channel instead of sleeping. This video is now my new favorite shot. Just the water falling toward the eyeball with the slow motion soundtrack going. Then, plot twist because we're about to go even slower. The music slows down into silence. That was the coolest sound design decision I've seen in these videos so far. It makes you feel like you've just entered some new reality hidden behind the speed of the universe; absolutely eerie lol

"I want to go faster" "It can't be done" I love listening to this, knowing that they will one day film at 10 trillion FPS...

Drop a light bulb in a mouse trap.

Amazingly, they manage to keep cool ideas coming... and then there is watchmojo

8:10 OUCH I CAN FEEL THAT!

4:27 he’s wearing a hello kitty bandaid😂😂😂

Just watching the water hitting his eye made my eyes water.

surprisingly watching the water just constantly pouring into his eye made my eyes water haha

So what do you do? "I break stuff into pieces and film that" Hmm.. I see.. but I mean what do you do for living? "I told you.."

"I'm just gonna drop a little water in your eyeball" *POORS an entire cup onto his face*

and there is people happy with 60 fps in games

the water in the eye literally made my eyes water

I love how you guys were like "I'm sure one day we'll film even faster" Because what ended up happening was: Jul 17, 2016: Guys check it out we filmed at over 300 THOUSAND frames per second! Mar 27, 2019: You are like little baby. Watch this. TEN. TRILLION. FRAMES. PER. SECOND.

The crazy thing is that 343,000 fps is nowhere near the fastest framerate they can do now, if they recreated this video they could easily do 1,000,000

there will be a 19 hour vid of this omg

4:27 that hello kitty bandaid tho

I have witnessed events so tiny and so fast they can hardly be said to have occurred at all.

8:05 now that's a real eyewash

They should SO film a lightning bolt in slow motion.

5:26 thats a dank film rate

Using this as reference for a painting of broken glass, and it is so useful! Thanks guys

"Its loud as HECK." Camera: rrreeeEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

4:27 oh my god gav has a hello kitty band aid on his finger

4:17 and so the meme was born

Some cool guys saying to them "so u can do it more slow" Legends: lets watch it at 0.25x

I love how in like any other media Dan would be represented as the dumb test dummy to Gav’s nerdy tech guy. But Dan is just genuinely very intelligent

-super duper extremo bananzo fast.... -any more adjectives? -floopin. 4:17

They couldn't HANDLE the speed. I'll find my way out.

Shattering glass is insanely fast. Wow. Great video

For those who don't know the metric system, it is 38 degrees Celsius, which is equivalent to around 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit

If I could afford one of those cameras I'd keep myself mesmerized for the rest of my life. Hopefully it becomes cheaper in some years. Great job guys!

He said 38° and the American in me took two business days to process

When Dan was complaining about it being thirty-eight degrees. I was like wow, he must sunbathe in the cold if he thinks thirty-eight degrees in hot. Then I remembered that he is from England and thirty-eight degrees Celsius is a little over one hundred degrees Fahrenheit.

In the future you'll be able to film a photon coming out of a lamp.

kids in america could've wasted that glass

It’s actually cool how fast glass breaks/shaders and getting a visual of it wouldn’t be possible without the Slow Mo Guys.

God, watching that water globule hovering above Dan's eye knowing it's about to make contact with the open eyeball gives me the biggest sense of heebie-jeebies I've ever felt in a while,

Super Hot Super Hot Super Hot

Next video: watch paint dry at 343,000FPS

That handle shattered just like a Prince Rupert drop would. The speed is nothing short of amazing.

4:14 I have binge-watched dozens of slowmo guys videos, and have finally found the origin of "Floopin". I am at peace.

next pull a skin hair in 320000 fps

Who Else Watched This Before The Reupload?

Assuming the handle is about 10cm and calculating the average speed, the ridiculous speed the cracks spread is around 3461km / h or 2150mph

My eyes got SUPER WATERY when they showed the water slowly hitting dan's eyeball

They gotta break 1,000,000 FPS eventually

5:42 it looks like that scene from tom and jerry where water turned into ice

“Thirteen thousand times slower than you can see with your own face” thanks gav 😂

That handle shot was wicked!

Dan is like a Lab mice lol !! :D

You guys want to film something glass-like exploding, try to find some old corelle ware, its a substance made by Corning glass, it explodes with ferocious energy. i dropped a plate from tabletop height and it literally exploded, we found pieces nearly 15 meters away. It would be interesting to see if it cracks at nearly the same speed as regular or Pyrex glass. BTW The glass handle in this video cracks within a reasonable approximation of the speed of sound. Remember, the speed of sound in crystalline glass is much faster than the speed of sound in air. Of course that speed in glass depends on structural design, impurities, actual chemical composition of the glass, etc. so it won't match exactly the textbook SoS in pure glass.

Who else love the song that is played during slow mo.

Some sad day they'll be like: "I'm bored of breaking stuff."

Glasshandle: "uuhh ... I can handle it" Dan: "... I am dan." Were these puns intentional?

Make another channel called "The Fast Guys"

I love how demented the music sounds when they delve into the seriously slow replays.

Being 2022 now, I’ve seen many glass shattering videos on this channel and I only just now saw this video and I only now understand just how fast that glass is shattering. Wild

who came here from the longest 5 seconds?

38 degrees pfffft as I am typing this it is 95 degrees outside right now Edit: I think I might be stupid, They mean Celsius

All moments slow mo: 2:17 - 28,546 FPS 3:30 - 118,830 FPS 5:39 - 343,915 FPS

My favorite part of this video actually was seeing Dan's eye get waterboarded by a single drop of water

And I throught that 120fps was a lot...

There needs to be a Slow Mo Guys / Hydraulic Press Channel collab

"That is the fastest we've ever filmed so far. I'm sure one day we'll exceed it." Two years later: literally filming photons moving through milk water.

“There’s no messing around” - a double unintentional pun. I like it! 😂

You often hear people say, "Wow! that was so fast, it was gone in a blink of an eye". But from now on I'm going to say, "Wow! that was so fast, it was gone in the time it took a crappy US Pyrex glass, jug handle to crack when subjected to thermal shock" Its a bit of a mouthful but I like to have my facts right when reciting metaphors.

Record the CRT TV refresh rate in slow motion :D

2:50 that still gives you a good map of where to look for shrapnel.

Before the very late 19th and the 20th centuries, NO ONE was EVER able to see high-speed events _slowed down_ at all. Amazing stuff.

Slow mo guys are the best channel since they use Celsius because they aren't stupid.
