For those wondering, the camera recording our regular footage is the Sony A7SIII. Its ability to achieve relatively low levels of noise at high ISOs combined with the f0.95 lens means that under the light of the full moon, we basically have colour night vision.
It looks unbelievably cool
Come on, you HAVE to give us some google disk link or something with the original of this video!
Why this wasn't uploaded in HDR???????
I'm waiting for One second to one hour part 3! Is it coming??? I would love to see another video on the topic!
I’m sure by now you’ve realized those shining lights at the beginning that were distracting Gav are stars. You could clearly see Orion’s Belt and once you saw that. The other 4 main stars of the constellation were evident.
that clear shot of the full Orion constellation in a blue day-looking sky isn't even the point of the video and yet it has immediately sold me better than any ad -R
It's like we're seeing footage from another planet and I love it.
It’s odd to see them so well in recording, I normally never see them so clearly in recorded media.
i had to pause the video and stare at it for a minute such a good shot
Cool to see you guys here, hello!
The night shot was great, then the bat and whammm hit for 6
This is one of, if not the best shot in all of slowmo guys history. My jaw is on the floor.
100% agree, definitely one of the most artistically beautiful shots they've achieved!
go watch them fire a fifty caliber into ballistics gel. that one is the best, imo
After watching the whole video, it ties with the ballistics gel video
totally metal 👍
It's super magical!
Those day-night shots looks so otherworldly, the silver suits sells it even more looking like an spacesuit
ok
This needs to be repurposed into a music video!! 🤩
Yup that last hit they did before the ad was so amazing..it looked like a picture of the night sky through a telescope or something..almost like a million stars in the dark universe🥺❤️❤️🔥🔥👍🏾👍🏾
bro has no friends @@tridocao143
It honestly blows my mind how after 12 years you guys are still able to come up with ideas like this. That’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.
Did you watch the rocket engine igniting? That one takes the cake for me.
Guys (of the slow mo) this is so cool. Want to come use our Giant Axe for some insane slow mo vids? It’s in a field in Australia waiting. We also have lots of other toys too 👍
Omg yes!!!! Please do this 😮😮
A very well protected slow mo camera aimed down into the blender. Focus will be fun.
Heellll yes I already love the slower shots you guys do, taking it up a notch (or several) with the Slo Mo guys would be amazing
How this only have 20 likes? Definitely need a real good slowie
That’d be a really good mash-up!
Always amazed by Gavin's ability to nail focus and exposure on first try for shots like this. Also, please release some shots as wallpapers, looks stunning!
Exactly! I took some screenshots
ok
ok
big agree on the wallpaper idea
UNCOMPRESSED! If you please... 😁
This needs to be a live wallpaper it looks so awesome.
You guys should really release a Blu-Ray of your most compression-breaking videos. I'd buy it for sure.
Same
I would be happy with purchasing a seriously large downloadable file that I can then take to the professional printers and get a wall mural image printed and pasted onto my living room wall
8k HDR
Yes, they definitely need to do something like that. I would buy several.
What is this "Blu-ray" you speak of? Like, physical media? Do they still do that?
Truthfully, this entire video is an award winning video masterpiece. It's not often that we see night videography at this high of an exposure. And the slo mo was just utterly unbeatable- could easily be the best I've ever seen.
Dude for real. I would order an uncompressed (or lightly?) bluray of even just this one video to see it like Gav can in editing. That last shot reveal could be one of the most beautiful and bad ass things I've ever seen in my life.
@@Mahbeisertsor just an upload of the file for download to view in the same kind of reader they're seeing it in.
Molten steel hitting the ground and lighting up the reflective suits, just as the bat comes in view and hits the molten metal to cause the explosion, creating one of the most cinematic shot i’ve seen
1) I loved that clear shot of Orion. Weirdly, that more than anything else impressed me with just how awesome your cameras are. :D
2) You guys are INSANE.
3) That was easily the most epic segment you've done this year so far.
The batter ominously appearing as the steel starts to hit the floor, revealing that they were there all along and about to hit, is like something out of alien, I love it.
ok fine... ill rewatch alien for the millionth time😜
I've never seen someone rock a silver suit quite like Gav... That man could totally be the protagonist of a late 70s sci-fi movie.
Or he could go back in time in a DeLorean, wearing that suit
New fashion style coming for the space-age!
Lazer Team 3?
Dr Nose.
13 years on and you are still releasing absolute BANGERS !!! Well done lads 🎉
Gav: *Hits molten nails*
Dan: I think you nailed that
That exposure is insane. F/0.95 at 32000 ISO turns complete night time in to day time.
Those stars in the background at 1:22 are the constellation Orion, and you can even see the Orion Nebula pretty clearly in the shot.
Yes, looks fake with all those stars floating around, doesn't it? ;-)
I like how you can see the sky is still blue.
Yes that’s crazy! And is on video that is even hard to get
a like for also spotting orions distinctive frame.
Planes or stars? Maybe Gav was an indoors kid.
Even just the normal shots of them with the high exposure at night look mesmerizing to me. Looks like space or something. Surprised we don’t see this effect in movies more often
The TV show "raised by wolves" films often using the opposite effect. They will film their night time scenes during the day and turn down the exposure for the alien night
@@maxgamesst1 That's a fairly common trick. It is used in many movies, sometimes during the edit. The Mummy (Brandon Fraser one) opens with a pan across a temple complex, which was partially real (the servants bowing for the emperor in his chariot) and shot during the day. They ended up making it night, so you can barely see how much effort went into making the set and seamless transition when edited properly.
It's crazy how you guys have been going for over a decade and your videos still make my jaw drop
I will never get tired of this content. I hope they keep going until they’re 80.
That first shot was amazing! The way you start getting lit up from the ground right before the swing connects is so epicly cinematic!
You guys are making the coolest videos on TH-cam
Agreed
In this case they probably made the hottest…
some japanese ytuber did this long ago
👍
Good 👍
I think that has to be one of the most visually stunning things I’ve witnessed on this channel. It almost looked like a galaxy being created. Just beautiful to watch.
Reminds me of a Starset lyric
🎵When the stars go out and galaxies ignite 🎵
The number of absolutely stellar album covers you guys inadvertantly make is incredible!
Made a grown man grin ear to ear with the "whoa!" factor from this one. Absolutely incredible sights!
there's a reason you have 14.7M subscribers, and it's because you do awesome stuff like this
I love how much Dan is just happy to be here and supporting Gav in this one. Complimenting his hits, successful triggering of shots, and even how good he looks. Wholesome boys being wholesome. 😄
Yeah, it's so cool seeing him being supportive. I think he probably feels "guilty" for not being able to do the physical part like he always does, he seems to have injured his hand again and so couldn't pick up the bat.
It's something I have always loved about these two, just good friends being good friends :)
Imagine a spectator walking by, and seeing two men just appear in an explosion of sparks, before vanishing back into the dark.
That first shot was perfect - the silhouette of Gav Forming as the droplets arced outwards looked incredible!
I'd buy a print of a still from around 6:26 or 6:56. Two of the most aesthetically pleasing slow mo shots you've done on this channel!
3:36 and 4:56 are far better. (strange coincidence that all the good shots are on the sixes)
❤
@@azdgariaradalol yes 😂😂
Agreed - Guys can we have some high-res stilld for desktop wallpapers? - Would also look great sold on a large canvas for the wall!
6:56 is my vote for best composition and exposure. The inability to see the full figures, or make out what’s happening (for those that haven’t seen this video) makes for great imagery.
5:37 that is a crazy looking shot, you can see the blue sky, white clouds, AND the stars. Its incredible what cameras are able to do these days.
That shot at 3:34 has to be one of the coolest things I have ever seen you guys do.. Seriously, it looks like something out of a Sci-Fi
That was probably the most impressive pre-slowdown footage we've had on this channel too!
I'm absolutely stunned just by how amazing that night-time footage looks
The way you could brighten the image without terrible loss of quality with ISO in that lighting is something truly impressive.
Could you calculate the color from the melting temperature?
This was so beautiful. One of my favourite visual moments all year. All the sparkling colors when it spread all over and cooled too.
Gav talking about enjoying using a razor with a full beard has made me chuckle!
I wish TV shops would display your vids on their high end TVs their sales would skyrocket
I’ve seen some do this actually
@@a.w_.same
I've definitely seen some tv/monitor manufacturers use slow mo guys videos to show off new screen tech at trade shows like CES
Used to do it all of the time when I worked for Sony. Clients would always say stuff like "why would I need a 4K TV? None of the TV channels are in 4K. I'd proceed to show them 4K TH-cam content using the smart features of each TV and they'd be completely sold. Used the SlowMoGuys fire tornado video about a million times.
I would love to see clips of Dan and his giant water balloon shenanigans displayed all across the walls at Best Buys and Costcos 😂
What's even cooler than the slow-mo explosion is the INSANE exposure that camera gives. It's like you're filming through one of those ultra modern military night goggles.
Running this on a 4k-capable screen, the shots of the sparks exploding lagged my computer... you guys are making awesome videos!
This is easily one of my favorite videos you all have ever done... it looks truly unbelievable
Somehow my favorite part of this video is just the footage from the handheld camera when you guys looked at the sky with the stars. The image of a blue sky with stars in it was gorgeous. It's easy to forget that even in the deep of night, the sky is still blue from refracted sunlight.
Its possible that this aesthetically the best slo mo footage that has ever been captured. I would love to get a download of that and see what it looks like outside of youtube's compression alg. At 4k its still struggling. Hats of to you, boys. Such incredible footage. And the music score exactly depicting the anticipation of that first shot! *chefs kiss* absolutely magnificent! Gave me goosebumps.
I would certainly pay money to see the original uncompressed files on my 4k monitor. It looks gorgeous and makes me wanna film stuff like it
same, this one really is a compression nightmare 😐
Getting the original would be great for aspiring video editors too. Footage like that is ripe for effects.
This especially goes double since a cavitation effect from one of their videos was used in a Star Wars movie, so actual footage of sparks flying would fit in better and more easily in a movie.
Found it so funny that my video would stop to buffer every time the screen filled with sparks! 😂
They really just nail it every single time. Such a simple concept but we come back every time!
2:38 the amount of positive reinforcement and support from dan is incredible
And from 2:40 - I love their friendship, so wholesome
I'll be honest, I love it too, but it sounded like Gav missed a Nail joke! They're hitting nails and Dan said "You nailed it!"
@@mattkilsby947 oh yeah I just updated the timestamp, it was really off :p
While we wait the 50 years to see this in it's full glorious quality, I have to say I would reallllllyyy love to wallpaper some choice shots from this if you found the time to cap them in high quality. Around 6:25 in particular - A lot of your videos are stunningly beautiful, but goddamn that slightly further back shot is just stunning.
Dare i recommend around 7:06 and around 7:13
I couldnt agree more. Do they have a patreon where they have raw files for distribution or something? I would love to make the timestamp you suggested my wallpaper also
That timestamp would make a great album cover.
Not a wallpaper, but a 15 min screensaver for apple/android TV. Heck they can compile their best moments and sell it as an app
Agree would basically be the perfect background for my ultrawide monitor
Every frame of this Video is such an Amazing Wallpaper
As a traditional shaving addict, i appreciate the sponsor you choose. Promote this kind of shaving is good for everyone and environnement
3:37 Cinematography at it's peak
This is some amazing footage. Gav and Dan appearing as the frame is lit up from the material could be a shot from a movie
Yeah it was soo cool how the scene was dark and then the stuff on the ground lit up the whole shot a bit just in time.
What a beautiful shot... Wow wow wow. This needs to be incorporated into cinema.
That shot when the bat hits the steel. It looked like a universe starting with a big bang.
Thank you for showing this. This was a wild shot to get.
Ехactly!
Even with the horrific compression issues, this is the most spectacular video I’ve seen in years. Brilliant work, guys.
I was stunned from the visuals , I can't wait for these 15 years to pass so we get better graphics and watch it again , great job guys , LOVED IT ❤
The water spike to the face was my favorite ever shot - now it’s this one. Incredible!
That first hit with the wide angle is probably one of the coolest shots I've ever seen. The way your suits just light up as the impact happens with countless dots of light exploding in every direction looks awesome. I wish I could see the uncompressed version.
I'd totally buy a screensaver app for my Apple/Android TV if it's full of slowmo guys' shots like this. Watching these on my 4k in slowmo while doing house chores is an emotion only you guys can produce
I’d argue this is these guys make best content period
One of the greatest shots ever recorded. That was beautiful
Must admit, the two walking out there at 2:04 looks like the cover of a lost Pink Floyd album, let alone the actual shot itself! Absolutely rocking the fire suits!
Title on the cover: A Colder Side of the Crucible.
Its crazy to me how you can film in the dark and have it look like its twilight without grain, and the stars in a slightly blue sky look incredible. I also cant help but think of Back to The Future when I see you guys wearing the suits lmao
Just what I was thinking. Walking around in the middle of an abandoned field, wearing those silver space suits, passers-by must have though they were filming for Doctor Who lol
Holy Moly!!
That's the video to test the quality of your TV!
DAMN! Blockbuster CGI movie quality there! I'm amazed!! haha
That was one of the coolest slo-mo videos I have ever seen!!! Such great explosions, instantaneous light, and the shadowy reveals! Great job with the idea and video guys!!!
That clear shot of Orion and the unintentional milli-second shot of Saturn or whatever that planet was, was so amazing, as a space enthusiast I had to pause and look at those shot full-screen haha. Amazing cameras you guys have!
As a steel worker, this is really cool. Thank you.
as a cricket bat, i really hate this video.
Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. The tech you explain, the camera specs. Love the part when you say this video is not for TH-cam. 😂😂 Fab guys!
Im nearly as impressed with that night time lens than the actual slowmo hit. Bright as near daylight, and you can see stars.
I just would like to say that this channel provides the most exquisite reference for filmmakers and artists worldwide FOR FREE. Thank you, Gav and Dan.
I always think about it, people could really study their footage to create real life like animations
3:30 was one of the most epic things I've ever seen filmed. I can't imagine what the raw footage looks like!
It would be amazing to see without compression. Fully understand they can't post it without risking their ownership.
That lens is madness. Otherworldly. Very fitting that you guys had on the heat suits because it looked even more sci-fi that way.
I will never understand how even after 12 years you still make me speechless
You guys never cease to amaze me with the mesmeric spectacles you create.
The SloMo Guys
Specializing in Mesmeric Spectacles
Since the dawn of TH-cam
If you skipped the sponsored segment you missed this ace shot Gav cooked up in the lab - 8:00
You know those studio bits before a movie starts? That would make for an absolutely excellent one.
It's hard to imagine the original footage being superior. What we can see on YT is spectacular.
Even with the compression, those shots still look absolutely amazing! You guys keep delivering the goods.
With all the things going wrong in the world, it's so nice to always have the Slow Mo Guys giving us quality content
What do you mean exactly? There is always going stuff wrong in the world. Has always and will always. Nothing special and have to live with that.
Compared to the rest of the human history, this is a relatively peaceful time period.
ok
This video has THE most epic and sci-fi looking shots and stills I’ve ever seen on this channel. The glow of the millions of sparks and them just standing there in the suits, incredible
6:24 looks like two Titans smashing a black hole to create a whole new galaxy.
You're still amazing after all those years. love you guys.
2:47
D: "I think you nailed it"
Me: *wheeze*
The way Gav swung up on the molten blobs made all the difference. He was definitely swinging for the fences on that one.
Finally a sponsor I can get behind. I bought a Henson about a year ago, it's already paid for itself and just as good if not better than the stupidly expensive cartridge razors I used to use.
That was amazing. Absolutely amazing. That is going to go on so many music albums.
I love how the metal hitting the floor slightly lights up gav before he connects with the bat, it is such a perfectly timed shot
The last one where you both basically fade-in from total blackness into the light of the molten burst, then fading back to black as it dies out, really should become like a channel trailer or something. It just looks too amazing with that fade-in/fade-out.
Ive always loved the amount of effects, reactions and ideas y'all put on with slow motion. Things like air canons, explosion, fire and what can happen filming things underwater. You guys are wonderful, hope you two get to continue doing what you love with all these wonderous videos, and thank you for doing what you guys do, even after all these years. Truly a treasure
The use of Kevin's music in this really added something to the video. Now it's going to be even more epic when his music comes up on my playlist!
Please, please, please make a large scale print of this! I would absolutely love it on my way!
3:54
This is going to be my wallpaper.
The stars through the camera look amazing and odd. Almost something out of a movie or book.
Modern cameras have gotten so crazy sensitive to light that they are almost like color night vision.
3:35 is gonna be my desktop wallpaper for quite a while, WOW
as a photographer, I appreciate that you give the f stop, shutter speeds and ISO of your shots, as well as the lens/cameras.
3:48 needs to be a 4K wallpaper.
Banger album cover
2:22 I had everything prepared at my home and I was just about to do it, you stopped me at the last moment.
I hate when it happens
I think this is one of the best Slow Mo Guys videos.
Watched this on my 77" OLED TV. Holy crap. Best looking thing I've seen on this TV.
This has to be a top 10 video of yours immediately for me. It's absolutely gorgeous.
It's look like all of VFX artist in world gathered and created one masterpiece.
It's so satisfying and mind-blowing at a same time.
Love you guys ❤
That sensor with f-stop and photo-mechanic-whatnot bring full daylight to a nighttime shot is amazing!!
Oh, the exploding molten steel is cool too.
Okay this is probably the coolest episode in quite some time. Well done.
This might be one of the coolest videos you’ve ever done. Those shots were incredible and the comparison shot of what you could see vs the camera, the night sky, and how you looked like just ghosts in the fire for the shots, so cool
You guys are making the coolest videos on TH-cam hands down. Every time you upload, we get to see something we have never seen before and will most likely never see again. Literally showing the wonders of the world and science. Props to you both!!
