Falling onto a Giant Water Balloon at 12,500fps – The Slow Mo Guys
Managed to squeak this upload into the final hours of June to make for a Giant Balloon June video! We’ve never filmed a giant balloon so slow. We’ve also never filmed from the roof of the house before. These two things don’t mean this was a good idea. Don’t try this at home. You could get an owwie.

Falling onto a Giant Balloon at 12,500fps – The Slow Mo Guys
Imagine how cool things would look if our minds could process the world around us in such detail
After 6 months of NoFap I can confirm that I do infact see the world with such detail
you would go crazy mate
You do see it in a lot of detail, it’s just played at a very high frames/second
Not to mention the difference in speed between your vision and actions-imagine running as fast as you can, but barely seeming to make progress

Wow, the lengths you guys go through just to make a YouTube video is pretty crazy.
Just don’t die.
James Park dont forget the freaking flamethrower lol
I hope Dan survives another 30 years of Slow Mo. 😅
What do you mean JUST to make a youtube video? They make a very good living from these videos.
thebahooplamaster *no pun intended*
*_S C i E N C E_*
hmm yes interesting. No actually it’s slowmo bro
hmm yes interesting. I
Charlie Herman the nucleus takes over controllin everything
*D N A*
Did you know stuff is made of smaller stuff *SCIENCE*
I love slow motion 😁👍👍
My Mesuan i wish i could do a simple comment like this and get over 20 likes
Congrats.
No u dont
Andromeda Gaming he does have 600000 subs.
My Mesuan well u came to the wrong place
Top.

You know what this means right?
Now we need “dropping 6 foot water balloon off a building at 12,500fps”
Twice19 fps almost always means frames per second. Feet per second is juz stupid. Inches and feet are stupid.
12500 feet per second can be it’s own video as well xD that would be great (even though impossible)
A 100ft building
Holly Calvey the ISS is going 4.76 miles/sec. Though that IS in a near-vaccuum, it does allow for higher speeds, so ~ two miles/sec isn’t all that crazy
What if it popped a millisecond before you landed on it?
Then you’d hit the ground or a slightly popped balloon.
Dan’s eyebrows look like the eyebrows from angry birds like if u agree
3:40 For the Jump
4:20 Slow Mo
5:35 Another Jump
6:15 Another Slow Mo
8:16 3rd Jump
8:35 3rd Slow Mo

andrejoss475 thank my g 💯🔥😭
or you could just watch the whole video and enjoy their company
andrejoss475 or just let people watch the entire video
I love u
Cool dudeman 🙂😂😆
We can watch this stuff all day! Where in Texas are you guys?
Lol, I’m driving out of Austin as I’m watching this video
The Duo Finds I think they live in great britin
the more you know, that the slow mo guys are bristish
Caleb Congdon driving while watching? Dangerous! 🤙
I can’t believe that you guys revisited one of your older videos will you revisit a couple more of your original videos or just this one?
Edit:I know you guys have done the ball to Dans face I wonder if you would redo the video where you smash the tv might be hard to track down a mechanical but it would still be cool to see on and old and newer tv
I have a question
If you film with 300000 fps and you take a laser beam and point it in front of the camera to a mirror thats 1 km away. Can you see a delay between the two laser beams? If yes can you guys do that. I thing that cool
Repzhel
I don’t know if you could do that but you can see the difference between the speed of sound and light (for example and in slow mo guys style if you “accidentally” blow something up and it’s far enough away you can hear/see the shockwave after la explosion[ also this means you can see a “silent” explosion ] )
Shifu Careaga there is a video filmed at one trillion fps on YouTube showing light passing through water, I could be wrong but is that not showing light moving?
Dan Brown
Ehh, I’d say it’s more like light retracting but I guess it counts (sorry bout spelling)
at 300,000 fps. I’ll believe that when I see it. show me a vid at 300k fps
I believe you are vastly understating the technical details of those experiments.
So, show me an experiment with a single mirror, a HFPS camera, and let’s see these light beam racing.
Thank you Dan for everything you’ve done for this channel
You’ve
Gotta call that a 8′ Fosbury.
lol its a definite Y.E.S
Why, Is he leaving?
no ?!
I feel like such a sheep clicking on a giant water balloon video because Gavin has mentioned how much people love them, but damnit I love them
Cheetos give me the runs. K?
Haven’t you done this like 5 times
Oxters Pits
They’ve done different variants of the 6 ft water balloon videos, but it’s kind of like a classic for the channel
we’re all watching it 5 times
I could watch it a dozen more times.
I MISS THE SUBTITLES :(….BUT, GREAT VIDEO….I’M HAPPY WITH YOUR RETURN 🙂 (I AM FROM BRASIL)
I AM FROM AMERICA
I miss the daily uploads
It was daily because they’d prerecorded everything last autumn
I’m really glad it’s finally over!
😮 😂 j’adore !!!!!!
