Guys you're 12M family now😳‼️ And please its a request, bring back the Commtest, the "We'll PinYa" and "Get The Bell On" from Gaunsy, really miss these ones, love from India🙏
When they signed the contract with NordVPN they must have shouted "we'll pin yaaaaaa" 😀
The sounds of everything falling are awesome!
@@dermicha880 🤣😃
😍👌💎
I love how the people who manage this dam are like, "Sure, you can throw stuff over the edge, just pick it up and don't kill anyone"
Well yeah...
They’re not exactly doing anything wrong to be fair
@@kieranmccabe well they are absolutely destroying the grassy area at the bottom in every video, I imagine it's difficult not to trip on a bowling ball crater down there
@@kreetsjr7673 Or anvil. Those anvils in other videos have dug holes half a metre deep.
I think its a beautiful thing

Fantastic love this ❤️

Thanks for making it easy to minimise the 3 s 4 brains’ pre-pubescent noise.
0:36 “GO, MEGA BOUNCE!”
MegaBounce: “OK, DAD!” [Floats off into the distance]
What a great video! "Friction is heat!" hahaha
Hi
Yes boys can’t wait for next vid
🥴🥴🤒
Team edge is over lol
Heat is Rip 😊
I’m loving this return to the vibe of three friends who packed as much stuff into their cars as they could and drove to the tallest thing they could find. I know it’s way way more complicated than that, but that’s the vibe you guys give off and I love it.
So they packed as much stuff into their car and drove it from Australia to northern Europe?
@@obmitno6745 not in this video. but their very early episodes were definitely like that,
Fantastic love this ❤️
If you’ve seen their national game of AFL it has the same vibe. Must be an Aussie thing.
No, it's not more complicated. They make millions of dollars doing ridiculous things. Meanwhile, your *FATHER* just got laid off by Joe Biden who axed the Keystone Pipeline!
You guys should do a crater competition! I’d love to see who could get the largest crater just dropping heavy things on the grass.
Nice idea
"Well, that escalated quickly"
Yesss id love to see it
Yeah this is a good idea! I'd like to see this as well! How about it guys???
Definitely a good idea though!
I love the two camera angles.. it gives a perfect demonstration of the speed of sound. When Scott threw the orange soccer ball.. from his camera, he was at the 'D' of the word 'good' as it hit the wall. From the boys cameras down below he was starting the word 'not' when it hit!
Would love to see a paper airplane challenge on that dam and see how well different designs do!
I still want to know how long it takes you to drive, walk, rappel, etc from the bottom to the top of the dam. I imagine it is not a short journey.
i’ve always wondered the same thing 🤔
I think they said in a previous video that it was a couple hours walk. Can't remember for sure though.
@@evanmino I remember something like ile 2 hours
Helicopter helicopter...
One rappels down, not up.
Alright, I'm loving the whole series here, but... the craters!! 2:08 is the kind of thing I'd have investigated for hours as a young lad. And then!! 2:52 with the bowling ball just hanging there... You guys ALWAYS give the brain an unexpected treat.
Fantastic love this ❤️
Seeing how often you have been there and how famous you have made this dam - I reckon the guys that run this place should build an elevator for you. Or have they already? 😁
They could use the climbing route 😜
The way the giant rubber band ball jiggled as it bounced was abnormally funny to me.
The tire just completely disappearing for a split second was amazing lol
I think that's where most of the rebound energy was lost. The top inelastically smacked into the bottom/ground when it fully flattened. That's why the inflated tire bounced so much higher.

I've been watching these three guys throwing stuff from high places for years, never gets old!
Maybe one day they will throw you
sir where are you from???
i want to get some help from you🙏
I freaking love these guys! Love their accents. Their videos are thrilling and hilarious! Keep it up guys!
The Aussie accent
“That was a weird experience.” 🤣
That rimmed tire falling was one if the most insane sounds I've ever heard!
Sounds like a fast race car coming at you, but without the car.
@@NexuJin this is strangely moving
Fantastic love this ❤️
And the whistling of the bowling balls - yikes, sounding like bomb being dropped!
If you've ever been close to a fighter jet flyby, this sounded an awful lot like that. Such a satisfying sound
How were you guys so ON this episode??? You hit EVERYTHING!
Years and years of practice dumping stuff from a height.
Simple, they were not trying to hit it.
Multiple takes lol
They *enhanced* their eyesight and reflexes using *amphetamine.*
They cunningly combined a good altitude and a _baaaaad_ attitude.
They may also have used the combination of a great altitude and being HIGH.
Every time I watch this, Michael’s comment “it’s a bit inclement isn’t it” gets me every single time! Good work as always HR Team!
Not sure if you thought throwing a bowling ball from 135m on a thin trampoline *wouldn't* break it
I love the sound the bowling balls make. I wonder if drilling more holes in the balls would make it sound even better? Double the holes, double the whistles.
YES! More holes for more whistle.
This comment reminds me of that one Spongebob episode...
different depth and widths drilled to play notes and chords
-- add some toppie, my ears are digging it.
Fantastic love this ❤️
Fantastic love this ❤️
Props to editor Jack.. we all should show him some love in the comments! What a legend
I was just about to say the same in a comment. The editing is beyond genius, especially in TH-cam terms, no need to skip through, nor do you get a change to.
Wonderful that there are still people who appreciate the noble art of having fun. There is hope for the world.
11:10 Lol the dedication of these guys always amazes me, it sucks he's had back pain from throwing the big rubber band ball but its like he doesn't even realize it because he's so dedicated to their work, and it's cool his friends chose the small one now
Awesome as always. I knew Herron had it made with the blob pillow knocking that bowling ball so high on a fluke toss. That surprised the heck outta me 😅✌
Fantastic love this ❤️
Mate I never realized how far in advance these are filmed until he said premier league yesterday
Not really that far in advance, this was filmed on may 23rd, their first dam video came out on June 11. Would have been June 4 if they didn't get the playbutton when they did.
Considering they would have only gone for a few days and filmed a few eps, releasing them weekly, overall it's not that far ahead.
So how far are we talking about?
I'm in the US so I can't really tell. Was that a month or so ago?
@@leftofpunk How is your location relevant ?
@@shuntsam2 about 6 weeks
Literally the best content, you guys really know how to brighten up a lads day!
These guys are like TURBO ASSUIES haha love it
Let’s see if anyone gets this reference:
“For the last time, we did not order a giant trampoline”
“Well, buddy. You should have said that before I installed it”
Phineas and Ferb?
@@georgedoty-williams2085 close. It is a Disney property, but think back to late 90s to early 2000s movies
@@zacheryschmidt2611 emperors new groove
@@brettstanford 🎉 🎉🎉🎉 correct! Love that movie.
Fantastic love this ❤️
18:50 look at that recoil 😳🕶🤏
It jiggles
can we get a compilation of every time Stanford compares something to Sauron's eye?
This whole channel is just throw stuff off a bridge, and I absolutely love it
This is one of the only channels where I actually watch the sponsored segments (and also one of the only channels where the sponsored segments actually add to the video as opposed to making it worse IMO)
Alternate title: Making minor dents in the earth with various objects
Just spent 20 minutes of my life watching people throw things from very high. Amazing.
3:14 he Was like "yabadabadoo!" 🤣 I really like that sort of 'word'😂
Note for Editor Jack, please use the sound Gaunson makes at 10:46 in future videos.
I thought i was the only one who noticed 🤣
@@361MichaelS20 I thought it was fake the first time I heard it
Just to be a nerd: The height ascertained (by using the equations of motion) are not suitable for things like gigantic exercise balls.
(As the equations being used are only good if the objects fall at same velocity in free-fall. You can't use those equations for determining motion of a feather.)
Case & point: Scott was given a score of 4.9m on his big yellow exercise ball, and it didn't come anywhere CLOSE to that.
And, on top of that, you can't use the damn dam (lol) as a makeshift coordinate system because it's curving away from camera.
Okay, I exercised the demmmo....nerd.
i was just looking in the comments to see how they did the measurements
Yeh we realised it would be imperfect but in order to get on the spot comparisons it was our best play. If it was for the Olympics it prob wouldn’t fly tho haha.
Also, the yellow ball was over 1m in diameter so if you pause at it’s highest you’ll see it’s actually prob pretty close to a 5m bounce.
@@brettstanford Omw, I love you guys! Been watching for five years 🤩
I thought it was the angle of the dangle.
they could fix it but that... would be painful
would love to see another one of these videos but maybe from the tower with some of the bounciest things imaginable
Watching this vid after I just smoked a joint & laughing so hard! 😆🤣😆🤣 Now my sides is hurting! 🙂🙂🙂
Y'all are dedicated! This video was great! But you were FIGHTING the elements!
The slowie for the giant rubber band ball was flippin phenomenal!!!!!!! I loved watching it bounce, the way the ball stretched and snapped back made it look like it was an inchworm crawling up into the air! Fantastic viddy boys!
"Friction is heat! Heat is rip!"
what a quote lol
Here is where it is: 3:03
The amount of fun these guys must have just throwing and smashing things is ridiculous
This is one of my favorite YT channels. No politics, no drama, minimal swearing, nothing mean-spirited, no agenda, no negativity. Positive energy and vibes and lots of laughs.
"We're getting some smokie! Wedgie-grassy!" ....I love you guys! Keep living the dream and sharing the results!
Guys! MAKE THAT PLANE FROM YOUR TOWER VIDS TO GLIDE OFF THE 165M DAM!!
"Jemima! That was a YUGE explosion!" 🤣 I'm using "Jemima" as my expletive of surprise, consternation, or amazement from now on.
8:35 the sound of that tire was intense
You beauty!! Hopefully they don’t care about craters at the bottom of the dam 🤣
They probably pay to do stuff like this… 😂 if not they better run
Oh that poor Swiss landscaper…sooo many divots to repair.
14:47 Rexy is stading on the perfect side with the bowlingball nice throw bro
10:25-10:43 is the perfect snippet to demonstrate why I’ve loved this channel for years 😂❤
Does anyone else “pucker” a bit every time one of the boys leans into the rail to throw something over?
yeah when one of them put the camera over looking straight down made me pucker haha
Every puckering time.
as a physics student I really love when people use the magnus force without realizing it. A small amount of spin at the top will greatly affect where it impacts the ground! Great stuff!
Fantastic love this ❤️
They did a whole series of magnus effect videos off this dam - amazing how far some of the stuff went.
@@andrewwolverton839 sadly never heard of that professor! I just got done using the Magnus force in my computational physics course final project so it's still fresh on the mind lol!
@@kyleclark5208 i think one of the guy's name is guanson
You know you’re good when your videos are more addictive than drugs! You guys rock! Brett killed me with the “stuff ya’s”😂
Right. And I would know
That was amazing! Love watching you guys throw stuff over a dam! Lots of fun! 🥰😁❤️

3:29 - Warning: do not attempt this at home, especially if you're tyred.
E
4:04 THE BACKROOMS
Okay I chuckled a bit lol
Error 404
The bounce videos are by far my favorite!
I bet when these guy’s families get together it is a very loud reunion with everyone yelling there conversations.
I swear they must have used the sound of a dropping bowling ball for some of the spells in harry potter 15:24
You guys have way too much fun doing this stuff. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
To quote a brilliant rock star scientist: "Friction is heat; heat is rip."
Love the WW1 artillery whistle of the bowling ball lol
The sounds of air in this video are amazing
Nice english.
I can't believe I never noticed the
rock-climbing path winding it's way up the dam face before! What a cool place to practice rock-climbing!
I think there’s a hotel inside the wall too
I love how well the Basketball displayed the Magnus effect
11:33 Stanford the chad camera man keeps the ball in-frame WHILE being moved aside for his safety xD
3:00 yeah Science!
Love these videos. Seeing yall lean over that massive dam gives me major fear of heights feelings though.
Same. Every time the camera goes out over the edge my stomach does a little flip. And yet, I keep watching!
on the same page here. Love watching the videos and I know you wouldn't post it if something were to go wrong but my stomach always feels like you threw it over the edge. Stay safe guys!😊
Facts when he said take a look.
I love how it seems like that tire just v-clips out of existence!
simple things such as throwing things from a height are some of the most entertaining activities in the world.
Didn’t think I’d have so much fun watching this video. Well done lad’s
When he said "meterage", I immediately thought to myself: "What would the imperial version be?". Well, guess what - it's "footage".
Nice footage, guys!
Lost it laughing so many times 🤣
I'm going to start calling these guys the 44 Magnum crew, because their wild and crazy stunts literally blow my mind right out of my head!
Glad to see you're doing more dropping stuff videos, those were always my favorite
Great work guys keep it up!!!!
Didn’t expect I’d watch that all the way through, but I did and I had a ball!
17:08 Nice to see Jorginho taking some time off after a hell of a PL season.
1:08 isn’t it like the quadratic formula or something with palabras
I think it's the second equation of motion(under gravity)
H=ut+1/2gt²
where u=0(initial velocity)
And g=9.8m/sec²(acceleration due to gravity)
🥸😂
The Magnus Effect on the First Ball was Quite funny to see
I genuinely was nervous about that railing coming loose. We don't want to loose any of you guys, well maybe don't care so much about Rexy. Thanks for the pure entertainment vid once again.
These videos are damn amazing ! You should do more from other iconic high places! That would be epic 😎
Let's all play a game of report the bot ^
I see a pun...
Another great dam video. Always appreciate all that everyone does at HR, the editing, transporting stuff, the setup... All leading to you chucking something off the dam in a satisfying manner.
I especially love those captions telling how the calculations were done too, honestly learned a decent amount from them. :P
i wish they wouldn't start yell like some kids, everytime when something happends...
@@npc386 They have to; it is the nature of real men's life.
The bowling ball looked so violent, but in slow motion it was handled like a new born baby
I will like to speak on an important thought that's on my mind every time. If you don't find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day to realise that the money you thought you had, has exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
I agree with you mate. Investment is also a bridge to creating financial longevity. And not just any investment but an investment with lots of return because there are investment that has less or no returns.
Most failures and loss on Investment usually happens when you invest without proper guide, assistance and clear analysis of the profit and risk percentage of the Investment.
So how do you get your proper guide and the analysis you mentioned? Because I have incurred huge losses while investing by myself
From my own point of view " it's best to have an investment *manager* who has well acquainted knowledge about Investment, to help you earn from your Investment on your behalf while you oversee the Investment growth, having hundred percent access to your portfolio".
Speaking of investment *manager* , any recommendation? . I will also want to know if while he/she handles my Investment, is my investment still accessible by me to monitor and authorize any action on the Investment portfolio?
Every time y’all toss stuff off this dam, there’s a moment where I feel like you’re going to lose balance and topple over. Can y’all wear a tether? 🤣
Its okay, if they do fall they got a trampoline waiting for them at the bottom
@@sofithebeaglier5190 ....I hope thats a joke
Exactly 😂 everytime they throw the balls in the air, I feel like my balls are in the air as well🤣🤣
@@ideasareoverrated6761 of course
If the barrier is above the hips then a tether is unneeded. But, it is nice you're concerned.
Yet another great video by the How Ridiculous "team". We all know who the "stars" are and we all know you have a great support crew. I love the sounds some of those objects made as they fell. Thanks and keep the vids coming.
Gotta love all the examples of the Magnus effect
I'm 52 and this brought out the big kid in me! Great fun!
These mans literally made it their job to drop things from high places. I love it.
Never thought I'd hope for more videos of guys playing with their balls.
Very wise to realize the ground was what caused the bowling ball to break the net off the trampoline! Would like to see that again with the trampoline off the ground a little bit.
The tire disappearing had me CACKLING
My jaw dropped like three times this episode. Amazing results!
But did it bounce?
Fantastic love this ❤️
6:41 Owen Wilson turned up
who are these fine gentlemen with the funny dialects? this wa awesome :-D
anyone else just forget to watch their vids for a while and then just come back and binge watch all that you missed?
Great content. I love it! Just be careful throwing things over the edge. Especially heavy things. Don’t want you guys losing your balance and falling over with those anvils.
