    ⇊ Click below for more links! ⇊
    I have been wanting to build this thing as long as I understood the physics of how it all works. A super big thanks to David Linderman, Jeremy Fielding, Trent, and David Woodall (the welder).
    I realize most people who support Smarter Every Day don't do it for "transactional" reasons, (ie, I'll support Smarter Every Day to get stuff). I also realized that there is often a mental hurdle that must be crossed before support on Patreon starts. My thought is that I'd really like to give folks a baseball, and it might provide enough momentum to get over that initial hurdle. I signed the first shipment of baseballs I received, but I only have so many of those. There's no implication that my signature is worth anything.... it's just kind of what you do with baseballs... it's a tradition. After a certain number, it will transition to unsigned baseballs. I've got enough signed baseballs to over all existing Patrons, and many more, but I will wait a month or so to see how many I need to get, then I'll order the second batch. I like to support jobs and pay people for what they're good at. The machinists and welders who made the parts in this video for example. The whole intent here is to diversify away from solely being ad sponsored so I don't have to answer to anyone but myself and Patrons with respect to the types of content I choose to make. Thank you for understanding what I'm doing here, and even if you decide not to kick in at / smartereveryday , I'm super grateful you took the time to watch this video!
    Thank you very much,

    Nolan Ryan's fastball has been beat, but when adjusted for radar gun placement it may still be the fastest pitch ever:

People usually support because they understand what I'm trying to do here and are of good will.

(Even more after Mr T confirmed that I did in fact know you.) You do a really great job of explaining things simply enough that we do in fact get smarter every time we watch. Thank you for choosing to do this, and I hope you continue!

      Absolutely. Selling t-shirts is pretty important to them right now. Since they weren't allowed to play their first season due to COVID, merch sales is keeping the ship afloat for the time being. As a family, we're super excited to see them play, so we really want them to remain healthy through the pandemic. They have some cool designs.

      Watch the video with headphones/earbuds, and during the exact second that the shot goes off, turn your device volume up as loud as you can. That’s probably how loud it is in-person.

    • @EnmaDarei
      @EnmaDarei 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@AllHailZeppelin Using headphones/earbuds immediately makes it completely pointless and not at all a good representation of what it would be in person. Sound is felt with more than just your ears, especially sounds like those. Earbuds/headphones won't ever come close, no matter how high you turn up the volume.

      I wonder if they got two of these cannons and fired two baseballs at each other, would the liquefied baseballs perform the same way the vortex collision device does?

      Michael Barnes nope it's definitely not instantly becoming a gas, it's not even becoming a gas... also the original comment is about it becoming a liquid, and sublimation is not when solids become liquids, that's melting...
