Past simple

We're the slow mo guys. Dan, the other day we had a conversation didn't we yeah and I was like

Future simple

How can we get two paintballs to collide midair and film it in slow motion? My first thought was we're just gonna stand

opposite each other and just let rip and then hopefully

Would never happen it would not curacy the timing it would never happen the pain the pay's well fear you'd be scared like this

I've had bad luck with paintballs yeah, oh

That looks like good shut to mouth Gavin you look like a mess

My face off, it looks like you have a second mouth it's not pleasant

It's not nice, so instead I've made this contraption with the vice grips and string. Yeah

I mean it is a complex thing for us yeah, but in the grand Scheme of

Internet videos, it's very basic. I mean there could be like an electronic button to just do it instead

I've just bought two guns and sort of tried to rig them up to the shooting each other, okay?

So we'll see if we can collide two paintballs somewhere around here

I'm going to preset the focus and the framing but you know probably around

Will film it at 28,000 500 frames a second on the V 25:11

And if we're feeling a little bit cheeky will boost that framerate up juicy. We can get juicy juicy, so somewhere around here

Yeah, yeah, just just like all right, so you're just dying it. I mean it's so miniscule, but

I'm gonna try and I yeah, it's just kind of difficult because

Sometimes when you clamp it back up it just goes back where it wants a little bit a gift

Yeah, it's better given the plastic of the gun

We had if we had like a cylindrical Rod we could just shove it down both barrels

It's true. We don't know yeah if we were more prepared. It'd be easier, so

Yep, how's it yep? What's up? I think they just bought

They hit yeah, they did. He may just glanced each other slightly well the chances of that come on you ready, right?

Think that the green one just annihilated one survived

It's just like when when you get hit and paintball, it doesn't explode. It's there like tape or something on that paper

It's like half of its got the branding pattern I think on it a little bit the pattern sort of swung off and spun away

Yeah, pretty speed it into the distance. Yeah, my first adjustment was too much. Yeah, any meant that they just dinked

So I've readjusted that time and only one of them exploded and they weren't quite bang on so this time I've adjusted again

It's a little bit and hopefully we'll get that exact meaty little

So I actually saw the exact second that they they hit each other you know Noob

You know when you close your eyes, and you like freeze frame with you. I captured that perfect

I win like book, and I just sort of explode can you?

Send that video. Yeah. Yeah hang on since in the JPEGalright

Okay, I got ya drop turned on yeah got it yeah man this cameras lab alright playing back

Nailed it perfect that's amazing. So it looks like they hit on the back like one

Look at the open house like like a fruit. It's like a

Kumquat yeah here. It's like juicy, and then it turns into like a spiderweb it always looks like a nervous system though back neurons

Pillories or something yeah, well how much that actually happens in like real paintball matches it must happen quite a bit

Yeah, is that square on enough for joint anymore adjustments? That's pretty good

So satisfying getting the first time yeah, I thought these are made of rubber, but they're actually made of like plastic

There's quite thick you can see the difference in there in the paintballs this one split along the actual

That like the steel hole yeah the two different kinds of plastic

That's seal the paint in and this one is just sort of burst all over the place

I think these are the more expensive ones and these are like the cheaper ones hmM, so right

We've run I guess so they're sort of flopping out the gun instead of firing out need to leave more beans more beans

How do you remove it without it spread everywhere? I don't know think you can

Sometimes it's hard to tell when it actually happens. Yeah, I still wonder how many wasn't it. Yeah

It's amazing that even though one comes out way before the other they still meet perfectly in focus

That's so weird is it just that I'm always pulling one slightly letting say I think it's just there's a slight delay

So I mean even if you do that in slow mode there's always gonna be one that goes before the other

Yeah excellent shooting. Thank you very much sir excellent shooting for you, too. Oh, thank you

Milliseconds in the difference, but I'm pulling them there

just looks like an age like it's halfway to the gun before these three minutes less count so that one's at the end of the

Thirty three seconds point 104 two three one okay, so what's the first number? That's a tenth of a second?

Thousand so I'm 12 thousandths of a second out

Should be ashamed of yourself call myself a slo-mo guy

Made a mess of the other board there you know and the fence over here

The thing is I figured that this fence was further away, so the pattern would be a bit more spread

How long do you think it would take me to paint the whole fence for the paintball there?

like solid it's going bang bang bang bang bang wouldn't be very cost-effective because during all the paintballs and the Co2 Uni it'd be a

Lot okay. I don't know how much that would cost. It's not very drippy is it and look it's very powdery

Do a paintball video without you doing that didn't get me though really no

That's so fortunate. I've meant to have the clean lab coat

Sorry, it does come off quite does it yeah tell you what the blue man head didn't come off. I didn't it

Didn't dry either. I think you need about a month later. I should get you like you should

very satisfying to watch just the way the paint spreads in sort of

Random Patterns different every time I can just watch them collide all day well sometimes I couldn't actually tell if they've hit
