This is a video of electrical engineer Greg Leyh of Lightning On Demand (same here but mine requires black magic and a ton of mana) blasting watermelons to pieces with currents equivalent to those found in lightning (25,000 – 100,000 amps). Allegedly Greg performed these experiments to test a new

This is a video documenting Slow Mo Guys (previously) Gav and Dan’s quest to build a watermelon rocket-powered skateboard. It consists of a watermelon zip-tied to a skateboard with its butt stuffed with sparklers. It does move, but when Dan tries to ride it the board’s MPS (miles per sparkler)

This is a video of Gav from The Slow Mo Guys capturing the movement of a watch using a Laowa microscopic lens and a high speed camera at up to 10,000 frames/second. The way all those gears move — amazing, albeit not as precise as I expected. They just sort

This is a video of Slow Mo Guys Gav and Dan hanging out with Scott of Kentucky Ballistics and firing his 950 JDJ Fat Mac, the largest sporting rifle in the world (and 1 of only 3 produced). The gun weighs 50 pounds, produces 300 pounds of recoil, and fires

Because everybody’s idea of a fun weekend with the boys is different, this is a video from Destin of Youtube channel Smarter Every Day (I’m the opposite) getting a group of his buddies together to pit eight different brands of string trimmer line against each other, tournament style. That slow

Because some people have all the fun, this is a video of Slow Mo Guys Gav and Dan shooting cue balls into ballistics gel at around 360MPH using a mini cannon. So, if you wondered what I wish I was going to be doing this Labor Day weekend, the answer

Because ‘I wonder what that would look like in ultra-slow motion’ is the name of the Slow Mo Guys’ very lucrative game, this is a video of tattoo guns doing their thing to transparent blocks of synthetic skin, filmed at 20,000 frames per second. It looks pretty much just how
