I mean even IF he did miss blocking all of them, he has super healing so as long as there is a single cell left, he heals. So either way he would be fine
_If you've ever seen _*_Forged in Fire_*_ they shoot bullets at swords created by the contestants and if the sword cuts the bullet , you enter the _*_Bullet Proof Blade Club_*
Random Dude it was funny. But I think it was clever as well. Like...hes fast, but not the flash. So he actually needed to be further back to not get hit at all. Then it was the fact that he knew that...but can't die so he didn't care...cause while he's doing that, the opposer is emptying their magazine...which takes away one less attack.
for jedi, makes sense. a) not like there's a split to worry about, and b) it s a way to hit their foes at longer ranges with their own attacks. plus they've basically got precognitive abilities anyway.
@@leeman27534 Even then, if there are enough people with blasters, there will always be a shot that'll land on the Jedi. You don't necessarily need enough people to rival 40K's Imperial Guard, but enough of them to just be certain that the Jedi can't deflect them all.
GabrielusPrime yeah being able to tell the trajectory of a bullet simply by glancing at the weapon firing it is indeed very impressive. It’s something I have been trying to learn in larping when faced with an archer as a knight. It’s not easy but I’ve almost gotten aim dodging down for a 35 pound pull strength bow.
Deadpool and Wonder Woman have to have fruit fly like reflexes. They their new names should be Dead Fly, or Fruit Pool, Wonder Fly, or Fruit Woman. I'd accept that.
Fruit Fly? Try the Mosquito from One Punch Man! ...Or am I going too far? ...Wait this would make for terrible names!... Mosquito Pool...What was I thinking!
Deadpool is supposed to have superhuman reflexes, but you also forgot to take into account him reacting before the shot is fired, moving in reaction to the gun coming into position and starting his slice through the air as he watches the finger pull the trigger. Of course, that means he's mentally calculating the precise moment the gun will fire and where the bullet will be 5 milliseconds after, which isn't any easier, but gives him more time to be in position for the cutting of the bullet.
This made me remember a man I had seen named Isao Machii from what I believe was Mythbusters or Stan Lee's superhumans show. He sliced a BB pellet moving over 200mph with a katana while standing 70 feet away. Simple math shows that the pellet was moving just under 300 feet per second. He had about 230 milliseconds to respond. However, it was stated that instead of seeing the tiny white pellet, as it would be nearly impossibly to see, he used the sound of the gun firing and mentally calculated the trajectory of the bullet. While I don't know what it would take to calculate all that, let's plug the difference the reaction to sound would make. As the speed of sound is about 1125 feet per second, at 70 feet it would take 62 milliseconds for the sound to reach him. So, if the information about him using the sound to react is true, then he would have 62 seconds less to respond. So in total, Isao Machii would only have about 168 milliseconds to react to the firing of the gun, process it (and calculate the trajectory), then move the sword into position. While not quite the reaction times Deadpool would need, it is getting close. Here is the link to a clip of Isao Machii cutting the pellet. ruclips.net/video/Qzhs1Z8Rwnk/видео.html
First off, that pellet may leave the barrel at 200mph (or just shy of 90m/s), but it will most definitely not be travelling at that speed toward the end. We are also going to assume it's the regular 6mm pellet. Looking at the chart for impact energy of the pellet vs distance, a pellet with original travel speed of 120m/s, a third faster than what was used in the katana trick, the pellet loses 78,6% of it's energy after 21 meters (70 feet). So going by that, the speed of the pellet is going to be about 41,66m/s, *less than half* of what it was when it left the barrel. For example, fastballs in baseball can travel at 48,3m/s (and they continue to travel closer to that velocity because the ball is much heavier). Still an impressive feat, though. EDIT: Also, we have no idea how many takes it took to get it to work. Did they get it right on the first try... Probably not.
While I had no doubt that it took more than one try, you are right. I was thinking of the pellet as a slow moving bullet and completely forgot about the reduction in speed it would endure. However, I do think that my point still stands about Isao Machii reacting much quicker than most people. However, thank you for the correction, I really wouldn't have thought about that.
Although people do react faster to sound than sight which is a variable which needs to be taken into account, Isao I believe was reacting to the persons act of aiming and using shorter motions than a full swing to improve the speed of his response. He did have to guess at the trajectory. I'd say Isao proves bullet slicing isnt impossible but it's a one time really really lucky thing that's only possible between a swordsman fast enough and with enough knowledge of fire arms to anticipate a bullets trajectory AND a marksman firing a single shot whose good enough to consistently hit an exact point every time they want to. Otherwise it's just pure luck that a blade is where a bullet is going.
Funny story, in the Comics Deadpool actually explains how he was able to like bullets in half and do half the things he can. Turns out this because of his ability to break the fourth wall. He looks ahead in his own comic so that he can see we're enemies are going to be and how they're going to try and fight him so he can counter them before they actually attack. Pretty cool, right?
Except he’s an amazingly skilled mercenary with superhuman abilities in a fictional world where the nuclear bombs grant powers instead of bursting cancer radiation ulcers
9mm isnt 19mm long, it's that long with the casing but the casing doesnt get shot, the length of the bullet can vary based off of what bullet is loaded into the casing
• 9mm Round: 1 complete cartridge = bullet+casing+primer+powder • Projectile: bullet = 9mm [diameter], length depends on weight - a typical 9mm bullet weight is 124 grains, but 9mm ranges from 90gr to 165gr. • Luger Casing = 19mm [length] All of this 9mm Luger/9mm Nato/9x19mm Parabellum business is a generalization to distinguish the 9x19 Luger round from similar arounds like the .380 ACP/9mm Kurtz, 38 Super, .9x21mm, or the 9mm Makarov. According to SAAMI: 9mm bullet diameter spec is .3555" -.0033" (9.030mm-0.076mm) Luger casing spec: max:.776" (19.71mm) min:.754" (19.15mm) Using the wrong round in the wrong weapon can, at minimum, result in a failure to feed, chamber, or fire, and at worse, catastrophic detonation resulting in damage to the weapon, and or injury or death to the shooter.
I didnt realize that he was making 4th wall breaks (like deadpool does) until i read this comment. I thought he was just being a dick to his camera people
It's okay...they re-boot him after every video and edit his memories. The "mic" he has to wear is really his kill-switch in case he becomes self-aware on camera. We're safe for now unless he uploads himself to the internet through his Post Office Organic Protocol interface.
It's only a matter of time. Look at that face and ask yourself how long it would be before he tries it. That's why they need to keep re-booting him. Elon needs to refocus and solve this problem. We don't need another Poppy.
So... the reaction time only covers the internal processes of reacting to the incoming bullet. The actual time taken to move the sword from where it is to where it needs to be would be significant on top of the 5ms. Probably needing Flash speed and the inherent problems with acceleration. Deadpool definitely doesnt have that capability, at least he doesnt bother to use it at any other time. More plausible(?) is the idea that he is super effective (or super naturally effective) at reading/predicting what the shooter is about to do and acts simultaneously to meet the bullet in mid air rather than starting to react after its been fired. Now Deadpool is certainly fond of a fourth wall break, and seems to be aware of the fictional nature of the universe he is in, so maybe its this same insight or perception that allows him to judge when a bullet is going to come and from where?
A real person CAN block a bullet, however they cannot wait for the gun to fire, reaction time is WAAAYYY to slow. How it works rather is reacting to the man holding the gun, that is humanly possible. Taking note of the direction(looking up the barrel of the gun) anticipating the shot and putting something along that path BEFORE it is fired can be done...but you need loads of intution, and luck on your side...and quick wits, you gotta think faster than the guy who's squeezing the trigger while trying to point the barrel in your direction.
The reason fruit flies have the fastest reaction time is because their entire nervous system is so tiny. It takes such a shorter amount of time because the chemical messengers literally have less distance to travel. I don't think a human could have this power without some serious physiological changes.
@@Arunnejiro well, no. Electricity travels at the speed of light, so I doesn't work like that. But you could just make it so that more of your nervous system uses electrical impulses since most of the slowness comes from the chemical signals that have to happen.
@@Awesomey126 you are correct but you are not accounting for the ability of a person at anticipate the shot. They could be in motion just before the shot is fired. Highly unlikely but not impossible.
What if he's not looking at the bullet? What if he is just predicting the shooter? Professional fighters do this all the time. They predict their opponent, not their feet and hands. That's how Ali could dodge a whole combination sequence of punches.
That's also...actually a thing. At least in The styles of Tai Chi ive studied Same for bastket ball, ignore the ball fuck the ball lake the persons hips and belly that tells you everything you need to know must faster
"HEH! I honestly do not know why they let me have this in here." "It is pretty sha-" *SLICE* "HAAA-OK!" "Can you umm, can we get something really quick?"
Keep in mind in Deadpool 2, Deadpool did get hit by some of the bullets, his healing factor just kept him from dying and healed him in seconds after sustaining the injuries. He's not as worried about getting hurt so it gives him more room to mess up.
hi kyle im 15 and i just wanted to say thank you. you are a massive reason why i love physics and why ive been doing my own research on things. ive been watching way back when because science wasn't its own Chanel. you have brought me some great times with this show and im so glad it exists. so again thank you.
I actually didn't realize the nerdist had other content for months watching because science. I searched for "your" channel one day and got really confused. XD
Actually the real Thor character is smarter than that. Asgardians are a highly advanced race technologically and scientifically speaking. They play with things as children that even our highest level geniuses couldn't begin to fathom. He doesn't seem as smart because he was raised by a different civilization with different social structures. He doesn't grasp our social construct is all. Plus he's been alive for centuries of our time. In Marvel they came in Nordic times and upon their powers being seen and revered it gave rise to the stories of the Horse gods and they were worshipped as such
Kyle, please good sir. We need some Because Science on the newest God of War game. Like theoretically how much strength would Kratos need to push the bridge of Tyr's temple through the lake, to flip it entirely, or to punch out a World Serpent. There are tons of things in that game we would love for you to dissect. :)
But Deadpool isn't holding the sword still, he is swinging it. The larger the difference in velocity between the bullet and the sword, the more horizontal velocity is produced as a result (0.342 m/s per m/s of forward velocity assuming a 20 degree angle on each side of the blade). Also momentum must be conserved, so the forward velocity of the bullet must have also decreased proportionally to the cosine of the blade angle, I can't remember if you accounted for this. These two things together (decreased forward velocity and increased horizontal velocity) increase as the sword velocity increases, so the physics may be more on Deadpool's side here than initially calculated.
Jonathan Schram Not to mention that in the scene from that movie we don't talk about, the bullet halves went by his head rather than his torso. Much smaller target, so the angle of the blade could be much more shallow.
EVERYONE IS FORGETTING THE FACT THAT NO BLADE WILL EVER BE HELD PARALLEL TO A BODY, BUT RATHER AT A MUCH MORE CONFORTABLE 30-70 DEGREES, MEANING THE IMPACT AND THUS SLICE WOULD HAPPEN A LOT EARLIER, AND THUS INCREASE ever so slightly THE ANGLE. Ok thanks
Deadpool successfully splits bullets at head height in Xmen Origins and DP2 so the 50cm clearance isn't needed, half it. When he attempts to do it against Cable below head height he's hit multiple times to hammer this home. Really though. If you had reaction times needed to slice bullets you wouldn't have to as you could simply move aside. Couple that with deadpool's healing factor and the answer to whether or not Deadpool needs to slice bullets is apparent. The answer is, yes he does cause it looks cool as f...
Actually it would make more sense to slice the ones you can't dodge (since you're still a big target and take time to move) and just ignore the rest. Standing head on and blocking every bullet that comes your way is more of a screw you moment to the guy holding the gun when in reality you should be slicing bullets WHILE dodging and ADVANCING towards the guy with the gun
Cleife117 if you had the reactions time needed you couldnt "simply move aside" becauss thats hard as fuck, and deadpool isnt known for super strenght/speed, so its not really possible for him to dodge bullets (unless he maybe anticipates 1-2 of them and starts moving in advance, which like i said, would only work for a small number of bullets) On the other hand, its much easier to move your hands, they have less mass and a ferm "grip" on your body. Moving them at a really high speed in almost an instant itspossible even for a normal human
What if, much like a batter (as in baseball), Deadpool were to start the swing of his sword in anticipation of the coming bullet? Would that give him the chance of hitting a bullet from a more reasonable distance away?
Yep. Here's another example of obsession with the mathematics and missing the obvious. Deadpool wouldn't necessarily have to react to a bullet being fired. Technically he just has to keep his sword in front of wherever the pistol is pointing. Now obviously in the movie he does some "fancy" figure-8 pattern but he clearly gets shot to pieces in the process. Another problem is the 44 degree angle calculation. That may be necessary at arms length, but the sword has length too. If the cutting edge intercepted the bullet closer to the tip of the sword, the angle could be far less.
Stardust Gogetto if you're gonna come onto the side of youtube that is literally all about overthinking everything movie/game/fictional etc stuff and say "its a movie cmon" you might need to reevaluate your social awareness levels
tbh, it would be simpler to react to the placement of Cable's hand, and where he's aiming. If you have super-human reaction time anyways, then the moment someone aims a gun at you, you already know what path the bullet is taking. Thus, you may actually have anywhere from 5 ms, to several seconds to adjust your Sword (or whatever weapon) into position, and only correct for minor adjustments like tilting your wrist a centimeter or two.
I think you would be more reasonable to believe that Deadpool is reacting to the muzzle direction of the gun. Less to the actual bullet being fired. predicting bullet paths and getting his sword in place to deflect. Which gives him more reaction time
he'd have to align his sword with the barrel in time, have either a firm enough grip to withstand the bullet's impact or be swinging, along with a trigger squeeze probably taking less then 100ms if i'm being generous, and cable shoots a different place every shot as shown in the trailer, so it's constant adjustments which slow reaction time. still, humans can react at 110ms at a professional gamer level so a super human with powers could probably half that atleast.
HoundOfMrGod I was actually just going to reply about the fact that Cable could see Deadpool slicing the bullets and constantly aim for different parts of the torso, which would require godly reaction times all the same if still trying to cut from the guns directions..
He could. Would require knowing how much the recoil would affect where the bullet would end up going, which would require him knowing how strong Cable is gripping the gun plus the recoil of the gun.
Reaction time cutting bullets isn't really a factor for Deadpool. His fourth wall breaking means he is watching the bullets come at him in slow motion; "Did we get that in slow mo?" giving him all the time he needs to react and precisely place his katana.
That is what I immediately thought too. Deadpool actually knows the location of each and every shot in essence at any moment outside of normal time. He is merely attempting to slice them using his heightened speed and reflexes to attempt to cut them in space in time he is already fully aware of which means he reacts before the actual shot leaves the barrel so reaction time is not a factor. He likely also knows before hand how futile his efforts really are but does it anyway because it's fun and funny.
there are a few problems. 1, the bullet is not 19mm long, that is the entire cartridge length. also, dont forget that the bullet is spinning at high rpm, which will effect the deflection of the halves.
Dustin Shadle Many of the slow mo expiriments show the bullet pieces angling straight away with very little continued spin. If anything, there is a slight vertical deviation.
If the 2 super guys are standing 2 meters apart and then are holding their weapons about 50cm in front of themselves, that would make the working distance between their weapons less than 1 meter, and if the required reaction time linearly extrapolates, Deadpool's only got 2.5ms to react. (That's about 4 times as slow as the guy who comments first on your videos). Did you account for their weapon distance, or did you only consider the body distance in that trailer shot?
"That's about 4 times slower than the guy who comments first on your videos" that's the most clever and relevant jab at a guy who comments "first" I think I've ever seen.
A 44 degree angle is possible of course but it would make for a very poor cutting implement especially when considering that most functional swords get sharpened at around 20 degrees. A better way of shaping a sword that could effectively deflect a bullet might be to give it a hollow grind so that the edge can be sharper while allowing the raised center ribs direct the two halves of the projectile away from the wielder.
Maxime Boucher I think that a hollow grind would be easily damaged, that's why you don't see swords of axes with a hollow grind. A convex grind is ideal for splitting and it is more resistant
Another way to do it would be to have the blade be that sharp, but have the middle section have a degree change to 44 instead. Rubber bullets would be a good way to practice too.
A convex grind on the edge bevel would definitely be more durable but you still could use a blade with a hollow grind in the cross section to help redirect the remains of the projectile without having such a steep angle.
Kyle, you could probably add at least another foot to how far away from his body Deadpool hits the bullet, because he's not standing there with his sword held vertically rigid, he's swinging it. So depending on where the sword is in its arc when he hits the bullet, it could be anywhere from 2-5 feet away from him, meaning the sword edge could be a smaller angle, something more in line with a katana's edge.
More from that: you calculated the distance between thanos wannabe to deadpoof, but didnt take into how far the gun is from wannabes body and the katanas distance from deadpools. Which makes the distance between the gun and the katana like a half of what you said, and completely destroy this videos conclusion. Sorry again
did a lil research to clarify and this is what i found: -Cable height =2.03m (comic) 1.72m (actor) -dead-pool height = 1.84m (comic) 1.87m (actor) -avg male arm span = height+5cm -katana length for ~1.82m person should be about 68.58cm -avg head width 15.2cm using these numbers some ratios and fancy math - dead-pool and cable couldn't be any less ~3.2m (actor) ~3.4m (comic) or else dead-pools out stretched arms with katana would be touching cables gun - the blade angle would have to be at least ~35 degrees for a body shot and ~10 degrees for head shot to miss assuming the bullet is cut about the middle of the blade and being that katana blade angle is on avg. ~20 degrees its in the right ball park
Wait, 250 milliseconds is 44 times longer than 5 milliseconds? Isn't that 50 times? Or am I missing something here? Also, would't it be possible for a katana to swat and/or block bullets with the flat of the balde instead of cutting them with the edge? Would the sword break after a few shots? Keep being awesome "discount-Thor" lol
A bullet traveling 350m/s takes 5.714 milliseconds to travel 2 meters. Kyle rounded down when he said "5 milliseconds" and then used the exact value when comparing against the reaction time "250 milliseconds."
Yeah you're right, I guessed it was something related to that. I was also thinking that maybe Kyle also considered (without drawing it) that when you shoot a gun, the weapon is in your hand and not on your chest, so the distance and time are different from what he used in the video. However that would make the reaction time required higher not lower. It would be like 3 milliseconds to deflect a bullet coming from 1.50 meters or something like that
The fast reaction times from smaller creatures literally has to do with their sizes, not nerve conduction velocities as is important for Deadpool as described here. A better example would be cats who literally have nerve conduction velocities 40% quicker than us, IIRC. As to katana wielders chopping bullets, look up Isao Machii.
i was just thinkin about how he is writing the stuff down- my first thought was he actually writes it on glass or something- but then i realized it would be quite hard to keep that glass so clean, also it would require him to write everything mirror'd. Was it later edited then? well it looks really smooth so he still has to do the almost perfect movement to make the effect real- wich is literally impossible and it would be easier to just write it mirror'd. Then I realized he may just write it down normally and mirror the entire video- i felt a little stupid that it took me that long but i think i figured it out ^^
I wish physics class (or any other science class) would give examples and questions like this, it makes it much more interesting! Awesome channel man :)

Deadpool is supposed to have superhuman reflexes, but you also forgot to take into account him reacting before the shot is fired, moving in reaction to the gun coming into position and starting his slice through the air as he watches the finger pull the trigger. Of course, that means he's mentally calculating the precise moment the gun will fire and where the bullet will be 5 milliseconds after, which isn't any easier, but gives him more time to be in position for the cutting of the bullet.
This thought kept bugging me while watching ^ glad I’m not the only one

We also watched deadpool react to things that havent even happened yet, hence the cream cheese spreader.
Austin Wilson It’s all because he knows what’s going to happen ahead of time because he’s in a movie and he knows what the script allows him to know.
I dont think so, I think I remember something similar in a comic or two. Its been a few years since I read the bulk of em
Actually the 19 millimeters is the length of the case, not the projectile.
This made me remember a man I had seen named Isao Machii from what I believe was Mythbusters or Stan Lee's superhumans show. He sliced a BB pellet moving over 200mph with a katana while standing 70 feet away. Simple math shows that the pellet was moving just under 300 feet per second. He had about 230 milliseconds to respond. However, it was stated that instead of seeing the tiny white pellet, as it would be nearly impossibly to see, he used the sound of the gun firing and mentally calculated the trajectory of the bullet. While I don't know what it would take to calculate all that, let's plug the difference the reaction to sound would make. As the speed of sound is about 1125 feet per second, at 70 feet it would take 62 milliseconds for the sound to reach him. So, if the information about him using the sound to react is true, then he would have 62 seconds less to respond. So in total, Isao Machii would only have about 168 milliseconds to react to the firing of the gun, process it (and calculate the trajectory), then move the sword into position. While not quite the reaction times Deadpool would need, it is getting close. Here is the link to a clip of Isao Machii cutting the pellet. ruclips.net/video/Qzhs1Z8Rwnk/видео.html
First off, that pellet may leave the barrel at 200mph (or just shy of 90m/s), but it will most definitely not be travelling at that speed toward the end. We are also going to assume it's the regular 6mm pellet.
Looking at the chart for impact energy of the pellet vs distance, a pellet with original travel speed of 120m/s, a third faster than what was used in the katana trick, the pellet loses 78,6% of it's energy after 21 meters (70 feet).
So going by that, the speed of the pellet is going to be about 41,66m/s, *less than half* of what it was when it left the barrel. For example, fastballs in baseball can travel at 48,3m/s (and they continue to travel closer to that velocity because the ball is much heavier).
Still an impressive feat, though.
EDIT:
Also, we have no idea how many takes it took to get it to work. Did they get it right on the first try... Probably not.
While I had no doubt that it took more than one try, you are right. I was thinking of the pellet as a slow moving bullet and completely forgot about the reduction in speed it would endure. However, I do think that my point still stands about Isao Machii reacting much quicker than most people. However, thank you for the correction, I really wouldn't have thought about that.
Although people do react faster to sound than sight which is a variable which needs to be taken into account, Isao I believe was reacting to the persons act of aiming and using shorter motions than a full swing to improve the speed of his response. He did have to guess at the trajectory. I'd say Isao proves bullet slicing isnt impossible but it's a one time really really lucky thing that's only possible between a swordsman fast enough and with enough knowledge of fire arms to anticipate a bullets trajectory AND a marksman firing a single shot whose good enough to consistently hit an exact point every time they want to. Otherwise it's just pure luck that a blade is where a bullet is going.
I think Cable's rounds were supersonic...
Funny story, in the Comics Deadpool actually explains how he was able to like bullets in half and do half the things he can. Turns out this because of his ability to break the fourth wall. He looks ahead in his own comic so that he can see we're enemies are going to be and how they're going to try and fight him so he can counter them before they actually attack. Pretty cool, right?

9mm isnt 19mm long, it's that long with the casing but the casing doesnt get shot, the length of the bullet can vary based off of what bullet is loaded into the casing
Yup
“ We fire the whole bullet, that’s 65% more bullet”
He always gets facts wrong
thank you! was wondering when someone would notice. Only the casing itself is 19mm, and not the projectile.
• 9mm Round: 1 complete cartridge = bullet+casing+primer+powder
• Projectile: bullet = 9mm [diameter], length depends on weight - a typical 9mm bullet weight is 124 grains, but 9mm ranges from 90gr to 165gr.
• Luger Casing = 19mm [length]
All of this 9mm Luger/9mm Nato/9x19mm Parabellum business is a generalization to distinguish the 9x19 Luger round from similar arounds like the .380 ACP/9mm Kurtz, 38 Super, .9x21mm, or the 9mm Makarov.
According to SAAMI:
9mm bullet diameter spec is .3555" -.0033" (9.030mm-0.076mm)
Luger casing spec:
max:.776" (19.71mm)
min:.754" (19.15mm)
Using the wrong round in the wrong weapon can, at minimum, result in a failure to feed, chamber, or fire, and at worse, catastrophic detonation resulting in damage to the weapon, and or injury or death to the shooter.

I read this literally at the same time he said it, and it kinda freaked me out
CosmicThomas Yea, DC makes shit movies, good series though.
So... the reaction time only covers the internal processes of reacting to the incoming bullet. The actual time taken to move the sword from where it is to where it needs to be would be significant on top of the 5ms. Probably needing Flash speed and the inherent problems with acceleration. Deadpool definitely doesnt have that capability, at least he doesnt bother to use it at any other time. More plausible(?) is the idea that he is super effective (or super naturally effective) at reading/predicting what the shooter is about to do and acts simultaneously to meet the bullet in mid air rather than starting to react after its been fired. Now Deadpool is certainly fond of a fourth wall break, and seems to be aware of the fictional nature of the universe he is in, so maybe its this same insight or perception that allows him to judge when a bullet is going to come and from where?
A real person CAN block a bullet, however they cannot wait for the gun to fire, reaction time is WAAAYYY to slow. How it works rather is reacting to the man holding the gun, that is humanly possible. Taking note of the direction(looking up the barrel of the gun) anticipating the shot and putting something along that path BEFORE it is fired can be done...but you need loads of intution, and luck on your side...and quick wits, you gotta think faster than the guy who's squeezing the trigger while trying to point the barrel in your direction.
With Training it's easy
The reason fruit flies have the fastest reaction time is because their entire nervous system is so tiny. It takes such a shorter amount of time because the chemical messengers literally have less distance to travel. I don't think a human could have this power without some serious physiological changes.
Theres probably some kind of device that accelerates the speed of electricity
@@Arunnejiro well, no. Electricity travels at the speed of light, so I doesn't work like that. But you could just make it so that more of your nervous system uses electrical impulses since most of the slowness comes from the chemical signals that have to happen.
@@Awesomey126 you are correct but you are not accounting for the ability of a person at anticipate the shot. They could be in motion just before the shot is fired. Highly unlikely but not impossible.

Actually the real Thor character is smarter than that. Asgardians are a highly advanced race technologically and scientifically speaking.

He doesn't seem as smart because he was raised by a different civilization with different social structures. He doesn't grasp our social construct is all. Plus he's been alive for centuries of our time. In Marvel they came in Nordic times and upon their powers being seen and revered it gave rise to the stories of the Horse gods and they were worshipped as such

But Deadpool isn't holding the sword still, he is swinging it. The larger the difference in velocity between the bullet and the sword, the more horizontal velocity is produced as a result (0.342 m/s per m/s of forward velocity assuming a 20 degree angle on each side of the blade).
Also momentum must be conserved, so the forward velocity of the bullet must have also decreased proportionally to the cosine of the blade angle, I can't remember if you accounted for this.
These two things together (decreased forward velocity and increased horizontal velocity) increase as the sword velocity increases, so the physics may be more on Deadpool's side here than initially calculated.
Jonathan Schram Not to mention that in the scene from that movie we don't talk about, the bullet halves went by his head rather than his torso. Much smaller target, so the angle of the blade could be much more shallow.
EVERYONE IS FORGETTING THE FACT THAT NO BLADE WILL EVER BE HELD PARALLEL TO A BODY, BUT RATHER AT A MUCH MORE CONFORTABLE 30-70 DEGREES, MEANING THE IMPACT AND THUS SLICE WOULD HAPPEN A LOT EARLIER, AND THUS INCREASE ever so slightly THE ANGLE.
Ok thanks
“Your bullets, they’re really fast.”
-Deadpool
No one is more faster than my bullets
Deadpool successfully splits bullets at head height in Xmen Origins and DP2 so the 50cm clearance isn't needed, half it. When he attempts to do it against Cable below head height he's hit multiple times to hammer this home. Really though. If you had reaction times needed to slice bullets you wouldn't have to as you could simply move aside. Couple that with deadpool's healing factor and the answer to whether or not Deadpool needs to slice bullets is apparent. The answer is, yes he does cause it looks cool as f...
Actually it would make more sense to slice the ones you can't dodge (since you're still a big target and take time to move) and just ignore the rest. Standing head on and blocking every bullet that comes your way is more of a screw you moment to the guy holding the gun when in reality you should be slicing bullets WHILE dodging and ADVANCING towards the guy with the gun
Cleife117 if you had the reactions time needed you couldnt "simply move aside" becauss thats hard as fuck, and deadpool isnt known for super strenght/speed, so its not really possible for him to dodge bullets (unless he maybe anticipates 1-2 of them and starts moving in advance, which like i said, would only work for a small number of bullets)
On the other hand, its much easier to move your hands, they have less mass and a ferm "grip" on your body. Moving them at a really high speed in almost an instant itspossible even for a normal human

It was the back end he was touching not the blade side
I love the 4th wall breaks of this. Can we make it permanent? 😂
What if, much like a batter (as in baseball), Deadpool were to start the swing of his sword in anticipation of the coming bullet? Would that give him the chance of hitting a bullet from a more reasonable distance away?
Yep. Here's another example of obsession with the mathematics and missing the obvious. Deadpool wouldn't necessarily have to react to a bullet being fired. Technically he just has to keep his sword in front of wherever the pistol is pointing. Now obviously in the movie he does some "fancy" figure-8 pattern but he clearly gets shot to pieces in the process.
Another problem is the 44 degree angle calculation. That may be necessary at arms length, but the sword has length too. If the cutting edge intercepted the bullet closer to the tip of the sword, the angle could be far less.
7:15 Even if a person have such a reaction time, is it possible to move human muscle and bones that fast?
Anik Samiur Rahman It's a movie cmon
I dont think so. Their arms would break.
Stardust Gogetto if you're gonna come onto the side of youtube that is literally all about overthinking everything movie/game/fictional etc stuff and say "its a movie cmon" you might need to reevaluate your social awareness levels
tbh, it would be simpler to react to the placement of Cable's hand, and where he's aiming. If you have super-human reaction time anyways, then the moment someone aims a gun at you, you already know what path the bullet is taking. Thus, you may actually have anywhere from 5 ms, to several seconds to adjust your Sword (or whatever weapon) into position, and only correct for minor adjustments like tilting your wrist a centimeter or two.
I think you would be more reasonable to believe that Deadpool is reacting to the muzzle direction of the gun. Less to the actual bullet being fired. predicting bullet paths and getting his sword in place to deflect. Which gives him more reaction time
Would deadpool really be reacting to the bullet leaving the chamber? Or would be be watching Cables arm/hand and the angle of the gun?
Adam Hummel would still need amazingly quick thought processes, right? If he cuts at the wrong time it would be pointless
Pete H you don’t have to cut/swing at the bullet, you simply have to place the sword in the muzzle’s path
he'd have to align his sword with the barrel in time, have either a firm enough grip to withstand the bullet's impact or be swinging, along with a trigger squeeze probably taking less then 100ms if i'm being generous, and cable shoots a different place every shot as shown in the trailer, so it's constant adjustments which slow reaction time. still, humans can react at 110ms at a professional gamer level so a super human with powers could probably half that atleast.
HoundOfMrGod I was actually just going to reply about the fact that Cable could see Deadpool slicing the bullets and constantly aim for different parts of the torso, which would require godly reaction times all the same if still trying to cut from the guns directions..
He could. Would require knowing how much the recoil would affect where the bullet would end up going, which would require him knowing how strong Cable is gripping the gun plus the recoil of the gun.

Next episode, Kyle talks about dodging bullets with real guns.
Reaction time cutting bullets isn't really a factor for Deadpool. His fourth wall breaking means he is watching the bullets come at him in slow motion; "Did we get that in slow mo?" giving him all the time he needs to react and precisely place his katana.
That is what I immediately thought too. Deadpool actually knows the location of each and every shot in essence at any moment outside of normal time. He is merely attempting to slice them using his heightened speed and reflexes to attempt to cut them in space in time he is already fully aware of which means he reacts before the actual shot leaves the barrel so reaction time is not a factor. He likely also knows before hand how futile his efforts really are but does it anyway because it's fun and funny.
"I'm going to choose this very real, and very sharp *actual* katana."
(Distant) "Where did you get that?!"
"Shut up. Now..."
there are a few problems. 1, the bullet is not 19mm long, that is the entire cartridge length. also, dont forget that the bullet is spinning at high rpm, which will effect the deflection of the halves.
Dustin Shadle damn you beat me to it.
Damn. Got it before me. Was wondering if anyone caught that.
Dustin Shadle Many of the slow mo expiriments show the bullet pieces angling straight away with very little continued spin. If anything, there is a slight vertical deviation.
Stephen Larsen all the videos I've seen display a noticeable deflection disparity, a few centimeters off is a huge difference in these tests
Discount Thor sure is getting full of himself lately
If the 2 super guys are standing 2 meters apart and then are holding their weapons about 50cm in front of themselves, that would make the working distance between their weapons less than 1 meter, and if the required reaction time linearly extrapolates, Deadpool's only got 2.5ms to react. (That's about 4 times as slow as the guy who comments first on your videos).
Did you account for their weapon distance, or did you only consider the body distance in that trailer shot?
if they're really just 2m apart DP would be faster to cut with his swords than Cable to get his gun up, even in normal human speed
"That's about 4 times slower than the guy who comments first on your videos" that's the most clever and relevant jab at a guy who comments "first" I think I've ever seen.

2:00 do you ever clean that sword? it has smudges on smudges.
A 44 degree angle is possible of course but it would make for a very poor cutting implement especially when considering that most functional swords get sharpened at around 20 degrees. A better way of shaping a sword that could effectively deflect a bullet might be to give it a hollow grind so that the edge can be sharper while allowing the raised center ribs direct the two halves of the projectile away from the wielder.
Maxime Boucher
I think that a hollow grind would be easily damaged, that's why you don't see swords of axes with a hollow grind. A convex grind is ideal for splitting and it is more resistant
Another way to do it would be to have the blade be that sharp, but have the middle section have a degree change to 44 instead. Rubber bullets would be a good way to practice too.
A convex grind on the edge bevel would definitely be more durable but you still could use a blade with a hollow grind in the cross section to help redirect the remains of the projectile without having such a steep angle.
Kyle, you could probably add at least another foot to how far away from his body Deadpool hits the bullet, because he's not standing there with his sword held vertically rigid, he's swinging it. So depending on where the sword is in its arc when he hits the bullet, it could be anywhere from 2-5 feet away from him, meaning the sword edge could be a smaller angle, something more in line with a katana's edge.
GREAT POINT -- KH
More from that: you calculated the distance between thanos wannabe to deadpoof, but didnt take into how far the gun is from wannabes body and the katanas distance from deadpools. Which makes the distance between the gun and the katana like a half of what you said, and completely destroy this videos conclusion. Sorry again
did a lil research to clarify and this is what i found:
-Cable height =2.03m (comic) 1.72m (actor)
-dead-pool height = 1.84m (comic) 1.87m (actor)
-avg male arm span = height+5cm
-katana length for ~1.82m person should be about 68.58cm
-avg head width 15.2cm
using these numbers some ratios and fancy math
- dead-pool and cable couldn't be any less ~3.2m (actor) ~3.4m (comic) or else dead-pools out stretched arms with katana would be touching cables gun
- the blade angle would have to be at least ~35 degrees for a body shot and ~10 degrees for head shot to miss assuming the bullet is cut about the middle of the blade and being that katana blade angle is on avg. ~20 degrees its in the right ball park

Rise of the calcy bois
Wait, 250 milliseconds is 44 times longer than 5 milliseconds? Isn't that 50 times? Or am I missing something here?
Also, would't it be possible for a katana to swat and/or block bullets with the flat of the balde instead of cutting them with the edge? Would the sword break after a few shots?
Keep being awesome "discount-Thor" lol
Nope, you don't miss something. 5 x 44 is only 220, so you're right. :-)
A bullet traveling 350m/s takes 5.714 milliseconds to travel 2 meters. Kyle rounded down when he said "5 milliseconds" and then used the exact value when comparing against the reaction time "250 milliseconds."
He probably hit the "2" instead of "5" thus typing 220/5.
Yeah you're right, I guessed it was something related to that.
I was also thinking that maybe Kyle also considered (without drawing it) that when you shoot a gun, the weapon is in your hand and not on your chest, so the distance and time are different from what he used in the video.
However that would make the reaction time required higher not lower. It would be like 3 milliseconds to deflect a bullet coming from 1.50 meters or something like that
I'm bad at math but others people came to the same result.
don't touch the blade, the pH of your skin makes it rust!
True, but as long as the blade gets wiped down afterwards it's fine. It's not like it's going to rust the very instant he touches the blade.
Phil Hsueh actually, it will, just, it won’t show very much. And it’s not necessarily the pH of your skin.

If you take proper care of the blade it won't matter

The fast reaction times from smaller creatures literally has to do with their sizes, not nerve conduction velocities as is important for Deadpool as described here. A better example would be cats who literally have nerve conduction velocities 40% quicker than us, IIRC. As to katana wielders chopping bullets, look up Isao Machii.

Was it later edited then? well it looks really smooth so he still has to do the almost perfect movement to make the effect real- wich is literally impossible and it would be easier to just write it mirror'd.
Then I realized he may just write it down normally and mirror the entire video- i felt a little stupid that it took me that long but i think i figured it out ^^
Eriktor that checks out, because if the video wasn’t mirrored, he would be writing with his left hand, which is statistically unlikely
That means he would be left - handed and the surface is half - mirrored so the camera can catch it.
From our vision, he is writing backwards.
I wish physics class (or any other science class) would give examples and questions like this, it makes it much more interesting! Awesome channel man :)
