Spinning a Record to Pieces at 12,500fps - The Slow Mo Guys 

@John Wyn Francisco Similar sort of thing used to happen with British comedian Michael Bentine. He used to create his own fireworks, so his neighbours all went away for a few days around Guy Fawkes' Night for their own safety! On one occasion he developed a 'two stage' firework rocket - two rockets fastened one on top of the other, with the idea that the explosion of the first rocket would ignite the fuse of the second one and send it up even further. Unfortunately what he forgot was that rockets turn upside down just before they explode - so the second rocket was fired downwards and buried itself in the roof of the thatched cottage next door. He called the fire brigade and the operator said "No need to give the address - we've been enough times before!"

Imagine if they broke the first record in History and didn’t know it. that is a big oof

only in Texas...

@John Wyn Francisco Bwahahahahahahahaha.

Imagine the neighbors have guests over, and the guests get impaled by chunks of record flying at mach 2.6. "Honey, the SlowMo guys killed the Millers." "Ok, I'll bury them next to the other other SlowMo casualties."

Easy. He'd miss it. ;)

Obligatory: God damnit Barb!

a good pun is a good pun.

Drunken Hobo Stencil is the answer. Stencil.

Drunken Hobo I PUT THE PAINT DOWN ON AFRICAAAA

“Im nearly full wack”

And to think, there are people who believe it's scripted.

Admit it, we all know what he means

I was laughing so hard at this I almost hit the dislike button instead of opening the replies!

Lmfao

When he showed how he's using his head to hold the plank, I was thinking, "this might've turned out like a 'Final Destination' kind of thing".

Yup

5:16 It sounds like nascar...

Its like a cow Muuu

Seriously some cool scifi sounds. I imagine a ship charging up its engines and jumping away.

Yea

Well now 14 million people got to enjoy them

These are all odies comps so it's more likely the owner is dead and these came from whoever had to clean up after them dumping their stuff there instead of the garbage

He's not just some guy, he's a slow-mo guy!

For science

Still enjoyed them.

The untold story of phineas and ferb

This is underrated 😂

I think dan was referring to that wooden plank

He said *OR* the tree.

Plank ≠ tree.

It did sound like that though, Didn’t it?

God dammit barb

Wow good pun

🤨

Nice one kiddo

Ahha. Ahha. Hahaha. I get it.

Which SCP is SCP-6880?

it’s not official yet, it’s an scp i made for fun but now it’s getting alot of attention. im thinking of enrolling it to series 7 once it comes out this summer

@@AzulDevin6880 cool! I’ll be sure sure to check it out when series 7 is released.

Is it OK to remix stuff from this channel?

Idk i thought that was kinda weird

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

XD

@Isaac Anderson If it didnt just break the needle immediately lol

@Isaac Anderson EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

@Isaac Anderson OML XD

Or a record named world so he broke a world record

I can’t wiat tiLI someone coms along to fix our tpying mistakes

I used the record to destroy the record

It was shot into space, where it will help to create a new civilization, or a new star...

explain to me how that lawn chair turned into a “wood thang”

He meant the wooden plank, but it still sounds funny

He was referring to the big panel than dan sat behind

My favorite part is where they defend themselves from record nerds

i dont get it

you mean 999 lmao

Lashan so true so true

who does that anyway?

I do.

I thought that was true since their CD outing

enough

Now that is a record being shattered

Please do it again with bullet gel! :)Awesome video!

Like crazy!!!

ok

The Slow Mo Guys Don't mind me, just leaving a like for Meg's cameo 😝👍

Almost puked but it was awesome!!

Yeah

Every second of it was something no one ever did or will ever do, I think that's why it feels fast to watch.

I see what you did there lol. ;)

Time fly's when you're in slow-mo

Hey I'm pretty sure you comment was copied, you don't have to confront them if you see it, just informing you

@@Overdrive1 the internet is a free space to do whatever you please. If you take it upon yourself to stalk my page and copy everything I do, then have fun while ur at it.

Cooper Beauregard unless you liked this video and have your liked videos playlist open (which is a bad idea) there is no way this guy could stalk you

Yeah. Hopefully one day they’ll try to count all the numbers of comments that look almost identical to this one. I don’t think counting that high is possible actually..

Sadman Haque that made my day

No. I don’t think I will.

Lol

it'll be live sometime soon now that you said it :p

Give me a few days...

life's hard do I have too keep going? Plz do

And: wasn't slow enough. Piffling 1k fps...

Was cool to see them try big production, but this is definitely better

I agree. The big budget shows bored me to tears...

For real

Well it shattered at about 12500 frames per seconds and took about 4 seconds to do a full turn. If 1 second in 12500 fps is equal to around 40 seconds, I multiplied it by 4, then 60 for a full minute. Unless my math is wrong, it should have been spinning at about 9600 rpm when it shattered the first time.

In the last round before it shattered I counted 81 frames (rougly 3:25 - 3:28, as a marker I used the letter C hitting the shadow). 12,500 fps / 81 frames per revolution = 154.3 rps. Multiplied by 60 that's 9259 rpm.

Taking this further. The radius of a record is about 0.15 m, and the time it takes to complete a revolution at it's max speed there is about 0.00625 seconds. From this we can calculate the speed of the edge of the record to be about 150 m/s 😳

i get what you're saying *i do not *

Yeah, way better than this Slow Mo Show!

They were in the last video too

If only they could do daily uploads 😥

Glad to see you back in every comment section ever

this person uses like bots.

Probably because Meg was there.

let's be honest, she probably loves it as much as the rest of us xD

Pretty sure they still record these in the backyard of gavs old house that he hasnt sold yet so she must have come to see them film. NVM he sold it

jesse ramirez he said in an lp that he finally sold it. the old house was the one with the jungle for a back yard

Perhaps I'm just ignorant, perhaps I missed it, but I'm going to ask anyway. Who is Meg?

logan markley id like to know too :))

You just did watch it happen at an insanely high frame rate... that's all slow motion really is

big words hurt my mind

Heh, good one. very clever.

copy and pasted. wow

Seriously? You copied a different comment

Now I’m super curious.

wut? confusled, why ya wanna know? flies are gross upside down or not.

destiny Dowdy For science!

Okay...

Nothing is gross from a scientific standpoint. Except the U.S. government.

Wow that was bad

You know what? That was actually really good

Jamin Jedi WHAHAHAHAHAAA guaranteed top comment lmaoo

Wow, that is so obvious, but I didn't think of it. Perfect pun for this video.

They made a similar joke at 14:52

Yeah, you know what? That one was actually pretty good.

C Fiddler Art I am confused is this a joke?

C Fiddler Art Lol

Fabulous!

It's an amazing observation, precious.

i’ve rewatched that clip too much i can’t it’s too pure

As it increases in speed , it goes thru harmonic barriers , that vibration shatters it internally .

Interesting

I assumed it was the Centrical (centrifugal?) force pulling it apart till it can’t handle the force anymore

@@ianwells2025 Centrifugal force doesn't actually exist, it just feels like it does when we experience spinning, instead, spinning objects experience centripetal force, which is a force inwards. This is why a spinning/orbiting object stays in a circular path, even though its velocity is always tangential to its path. That being said, centripetal force is (probably) why it shatters, because the inward acceleration wants to correct the warping but can't overcome it. So it's not being pulled apart, but failing to be pushed together. I hope this didn't come off as smart-assy I just wanted to give you an explanation.

Caden centrifugal force does exist and is the sole reason when you spin a bucket of water around it doesn’t fall out.

Dominic Thoma Yes you could. All you would have to do is take off your shoes and socks and then walk into the garden. Easy.

John Tilton not until you step on something sharp left over from a previous project

Francisco you could still do it. You'd just be in pain

Xavier Obezo Lol true

What exactly does research into rotary vibration entail? Why is it useful to research? I’m really curious how you’d get into that field, did you sit down one day and think rotary vibration research is going to be my job one day?

It's useful for designing aircraft engines and such

They really need to do that polymer idea, that would be so cool to see the stress colors changing.

TheRockyGamer 1 smart, but mostly hardworking, I bet ;)

I didn’t understand anything besides the part where you said “ones breaks at the outside
