Spinning an Apple until it Explodes at 28,500fps - The Slow Mo Guys
Compressed air can be used to levitate rounded objects. Sometimes said rounded objects start spinning so fast that they give up on being round objects. Gav films all the action over 1000x times slower than real time. Check out KiwiCo.com/SlowMoGuys and get your first month free!

Dan is still unable to enter the US by air due to Covid. Don't worry, though. I've heard reports that he went underground and started tunneling this way in April. - Gav

So big block in a car spends up to around 7000 rpm. Max..... So what you're saying is that an apple is a big block LOL nope lol..... It's a corny joke

U can go even slower at 1,14,000 fps, just play it at 0.25x speed. Kinda slower.

I have a question: How did you trigger the 2511 given how long it took from the initial start of rotation the the actual splitting of the apple? It looked to be around 25 seconds of record time. This is way longer than the buffer in my camera (around 5 seconds). Did you use the continuous record function?

Never mind the apple splitting, i think it's fascinating to see Gav's reaction in slow-mo on that first take. The apple breaks and hits the visor. By the time it's out of frame, Gav blinks due to the oculomotor system reacting. Shortly after there's the movement from the head as the brain finally gets the message. Follow that up a little later with the rest of the body getting the signal to protect itself.

I'm dissapointed, the rev limiter of an apple is around 6500 rpm, I'm waiting for the Vtec version.

2:13. This perfectly demonstrates the importance of needing to where eye protection. The Apple was gone and would have hit you in the face before you even closed your eyes

So at 3000 RPM, if we estimate the circumference of the apple to be of 25cm, that gives 3000*0,25*3,6 = 2700kph...
Ernie Smith2 days ago
2:15 - Wow! Though the physics demo here is awesome, IMHO this is a much more fascinating neurophysiology and psychobiology demonstration. From what is likely primarily visual input, we see a delay to blink reflex, to a more complex multi-system involuntary flinch reflex, then the feed back as it registers in cognition which we see fed back to recognizable facial expression. Neat!
Andy MitchellDay ago
I just posted a similar comment before seeing this. You can really see the oculomotor system kick in way too late, but way before the head movement when the brain finally gets told what's happening.

Loved watching the Apple explode and just waiting for him to react, the Apple has been and gone, some slower pieces just finish whizzing past his head before he's even reacted

You know it's about to explode when it slows down and goes in reverse.. it's spinning so fast it's actually reversing time and goes back to before it existed..

I've seen people split an apple with their hands and the split is in the exact same spot at the clip at 4:30. interesting.
Pharoc3 days ago
I'm surprised that the hole in the Apple didn't cause problems. One would think that would cause the object to fly across the room. Or perhaps that is what caused the catastrophic breakdown of the structure of the item. Another video perhaps. Thanks to you, Dan and Destin.

Those items will float just fine and build up a healthy speed but won't fly apart like the apple did.

There's a gaming channel called massacreman101 and there's a guy named Gavin on it that looks almost just like you. Suspicious.
Piotr Pilarski4 days ago
Actually, you don't need a super-slow-mo shot to estimate the 'nope RPM'. Whenever the apple seems to stop while it's still spinning that means that it's spinning reached the frequency of the light in which we observed it - in this case around 50Hz assuming this was filmed in the US. You can see the first apple seems to stop twice and then spins a little bit more and pops. So it reached a little over 100Hz or 100 revolutions per second, i.e. around 6000 RPM.

2:10 This makes a mockery of our human reaction speed as it seems to take forever for the message to come across that you should blink. xD I also love the term "Nope speed" like the apple at some point just thinks: "That's it, I'm out."
