  • Last one, B.

  • Last one.

  • OK, we're good!

  • woooouuu-argh!

  • Hello everyone! I'm Gav.

  • I'm Dan.

  • We're the Slow Mo Guys,

  • and we are incredibly...on edge right now.

  • Yeah...

  • I'm nervous! -Why are you nervous?

  • Well it's not just because I'm about to jump into a load of mousetraps...

  • it's because I don't want them to go off before I do... - Yeah!

  • This took hours! We spent four hours doing this.

  • We've had a couple of calamities...

  • NOOO!

  • What even happened? How did that do it?

  • Was it one I was pushing?

  • I don't know, I couldn't see.

  • But now Dan is ready to leap from that ladder

  • on to the trampoline,

  • full of, I would assume like a thousand mousetraps.

  • I think there is about a thousand we have done now...

  • Someone can freeze-frame and count, lets get out the way.

  • Alright, good luck counting!

  • Dan? - Yeah. - You ready?

  • Yeah I just want to get on with it! Lets go!

  • Good luck. -Thank you very much, sir.

  • I did offer to do it thought didn't I?

  • He did! He did.

  • I would have done it.

  • But I didn't want to mess up the button trigger, I didn't want that responsibility.

  • Gav: Oh god...

  • I don't think there could possibly be a jankey-er table to jump off of.

  • This is like... horrendous.

  • Don't try this at home ladies and gents.

  • I'm ready to go into the mousetraps, B. - Okay

  • Go for it!

  • Are you ready? - Yeah.

  • Woah!!

  • Aah!

  • *laughs* - Dan: Agh! It's in my hair!!

  • Gav: Oh my God! *laughs*

  • Dan: ...God!

  • Flip!

  • Gav: How was that?

  • I think they all went off!

  • Dan: I think so! Gav: I think it all went off!

  • Dan: Goodness me. - Gav: It's actually got it in your hair!

  • Gav: Wait...

  • Gav: Where did the goggles go?

  • I didn't put them on? - Gav: You didn't put the goggles on?

  • I forgot! - Gav: You're a maniac!

  • I was too excited! - Gav: Oh God!

  • I just sort of closed my eyes and hoped.

  • Gav: We had them, where were they?

  • Gav: Oh, they're on here!

  • Dan: Oh, I got too excited!

  • Gav: Did that hurt?

  • Well I just got little nips all over my body.

  • It wasn't like anything really painful, it was actually kind of comfy.

  • The main thing was falling onto the trampoline to be honest.

  • ...I'll just keep this here now...

  • Oh man, did they all go off?

  • Gav: I think they all went off.

  • That one didn't. Shall we see how many need to go off?

  • Gav: *laughs* - Dan: I think they all went off!

  • Look at that, you can tell I gave it my all!

  • Dan: That is dodgy...

  • Gav: You almost Captain Video'd yourself...

  • Dan: What? I almost like... yeah, yeah... *laughs*

  • Gav: Look at that!

  • Gav: Woah... - Dan: I wasn't worried, I just went for it.

  • Gav: That was a tremendous performance and I can't believe...

  • You did it without goggles but...

  • Dan: Yeah I know, I just got too... I just wanna do it on our first go.

  • Dan: At this point, my fate is sealed.

  • Gav: Yeah, it's one of those things where it's like,

  • Dan: There's nothing I can do.

  • Gav: It was at this point, that he knew he made a mistake... - Dan: *laughs*

  • Gav: Oh, you're in. Your hands are in!

  • Dan: Oh man. - Gav: You're like going through them!

  • Dan: All of them like stayed still, and then

  • Gav: Woah! - Dan: Oh man.

  • Gav: WOAH my God!

  • Dan: They all started from the outside and went in!

  • Gav: So cool, it looked like a speaker cone! - Dan: Yeah!

  • Gav: Look at that crumpled heap!

  • Dan: All flown up in the air now, everything bounces back.

  • Gav: That was tremendous, B!

  • Dan: My legs are still up in the air still by now...

  • Gav: That was class!

  • Gav: I look like some mysterious silhouette man.

  • Dan: Yeah you haven't unlocked your character yet.

  • Gav: So, I realise I did the intro wearing a cowboy hat and I didn't mention the cowboy hat...

  • Which means the audience thinks I thought I could pull off a cowboy hat.

  • Dan: Yeah, you definitely can't. - Gav: I know.

  • Gav: In reality, it was sunny and I was trying to wear a hat, and this is my new favourite hat.

  • Dan: This is my new favourite hat. Gav: It's quite good actually.

  • Gav: I thought that footage was tremendous.

  • We actually had the perfect amount of mousetraps

  • to visualise that sort of inward chain reaction.

  • Dan: You would have never have guessed that either. - Gav: No!

  • Dan: Because we covered every square inch with a mousetrap we could see the exact reaction.

  • Gav: And in real time, because I was so like, adrenaline and frantic about them all going off by accident

  • ...which they did while I was setting them up.

  • I didn't really pay attention to what order it all happened in. I didn't even see it

  • Dan: I think afterwards, you pushed the button and then you were panicking because you were like,

  • Have we, have we got everything?

  • Gav: Did we get it? *laughs*

  • Dan: Because that was the biggest amount of effort, I mean that was probably like an hour per second of footage.

  • Gav: It took four hours

  • to set it up and we recorded four seconds. Dan: Yeah, so an hour per second.

  • Gav: Thankfully, our camera can stretch one second into several minutes.

  • Dan: Makes it worthwhile I guess. - Gav: We're using the right camera.

  • Gav: Phew! Well that was quite short and sweet,

  • but hopefully you enjoyed it!

  • I always like those like simple ideas.

  • They're often my favourite ones.

  • Feel free to follow us on Twitter. Subscribe to the main channel, we've got a second channel if you want as well.

  • And we will see you on the next video, which is a slightly special one!

  • Dan: Hope we trap a good audience for that one!

  • Gav: Trap a good audience? - Dan: Mousetraps...

  • Gav: ... That's good.

Last one, B.
