  • - Hello, I'm Gav. - I'm Dan.

  • Welcome back to "The Super Slow Show."

  • Dan, I feel like we've become well known

  • for our usage of giant balloons.

  • Ow! Ow!

  • It's true. Love a giant balloon.

  • Now we're on the spin rig with a giant balloon.

  • Yeah, this time we filled it with hydrogen air.

  • We're gonna blow it up, hopefully get a huge fireball going on

  • while we're spinning round it.

  • Camera's gonna be whipping round

  • a thousand frames a second.

  • We've also got a camera up in the sky

  • pointing down a thousand frames

  • so the plume goes towards it

  • and should look gnarly and weird.

  • Nice and juicy. Let's go.

  • Let's go hide.

  • ( theme music playing )

  • Three, two, one, blow.

  • - Oh. - Ah.

  • There was a bit of a delay on that one.

  • Yeah, I was like, "Why isn't the balloon popping there?"

  • I would say it was a deep wumpf.

  • It was. It was,

  • like almost closing, like, an expensive car door.

  • Dan: Ooh, what's going on in there?

  • Gav: Feels like there's, like, a China ball.

  • I feel like I don't wanna see through the fire.

  • - I want it to be-- - I want it to be thick.

  • Like if you threw a steak through I, it would come out--

  • - Medium rare. - Exactly.

  • We just need some darker flame, don't we?

  • Yeah, I think so.

  • You know what?

  • I think we should just-- sod the balloons.

  • Get rid of those.

  • This video is about balloons.

  • - Get rid of them. - No, no-no.

  • Let's just have some gratuitous fireballs.

  • - Let's get a bucket of, like, dirty-- - Yeah.

  • We know what we're after. They know what we're after.

  • - We want a big, fat fireball. - Yeah.

  • - And a camera spinning around it. - Yeah.

  • Hydrogen just don't cut it.

  • - No, no. - Get that H out of here.

  • Supposedly, in that small black box,

  • is a fireball

  • just waiting to be released.

  • How'd they pack it in there?

  • Luckily, I've got a trigger, so whenever we're ready...

  • Three, two, one...

  • Oh!

  • That was loud.

  • Now, that's what we're after.

  • - See that smoke ring. - Look at that smoke ring.

  • Smoke doing up there.

  • ( laughing )

  • Imagine doing that and just, like, ( inhales )...

  • Yeah, like some cool guy in a bar who's like...

  • Yeah. ( laughs )

  • That's what happened.

  • And it's slightly on fire still.

  • Ooh. ( giggles )

  • Well, I think I got my fireball kicks there.

  • Happy with that.

  • That should look class.

  • Gav: Look at those lovely clouds

  • on a serene morning.

  • Dan: Nice day, for sure.

  • Let's disrupt it a little bit.

  • ( together ) Whoa.

  • Dan: Oh, wow.

  • Gav: That's cool.

  • Look at all the tiny, fine details.

  • Just spinning around.

  • - Hefty. - Cool.

  • Dan: So that's the fuel coming out.

  • Gav: And ignition.

  • Dan: Oh.

  • So I love how this video started off

  • as a video about balloons,

  • and it just ended with a huge fireball.

  • - Yeah. - Uh...

  • I mean, at its core, it was about a fireball.

  • So we didn't stray too far from the subject.

  • Yeah, okay, that's fair.

  • I feel slightly nervous looking down the barrel of that

  • even though it's all gone.

  • Do you think you'd get a singed eyebrows,

  • your eyebrows would go in this position or just...

  • - Yeah, pains to think about. - Yeah, I think so.

  • Hopefully you enjoyed

  • that lovely 360-degree view

  • of a fireball.

  • Thanks for watching,

  • and we'll see you in the next episode

  • of "The Super Slow Show."

  • Isn't that right, Dan?

  • Absolutely.

  • Have you got any more of those fireballs?

  • Can we do some more?

  • Just for fun, yeah?

  • Don't try this at home.

  • Good luck trying it at home.

  • - Okay, you ready? - Yeah.

  • All right.

  • Three, two, one...
