Now imagine being on a battlefield during the Napoleonic wars and having whole batteries of cannons firing high speed iron balls at you as you walk forward. This was a very good demonstration of why cannons make a mess of infantry formations.
Even with all the awfulness enabled by more modern weapons there is something particularly gruesome about a cannonball
I'd be interested to see them try a bunch of ball bearings like a scatter shot cannon. Basically big ass shotgun!
@@TalesOfWarThat's called grapeshot, and was a thing.
Yeah some Canister shot would be cool@@TalesOfWar
Remember Wolverine getting a cannonball to the chest? Man I felt that one.
Great to hang with you lads, so much fun. Let’s go again in 2024!
Can’t wait for part 2!!
One of my favorite collabs, let’s not take another 12 years to do it again fellas :)
2034*
You know, Gav joked but, the idea of a second channel called HowSensible, where you talk more in depth about the process of planning and carrying out these crazy stunts could be neat.
Hell yeah Aussie favourites
I am just really happy that the slo mo guys are still pulling big numbers!
probably one of the only channels youtube hasn't silently killed
Half-Life is awesome .
@@botezsimp5808 hell yeah!
you are not released yet, you cann't anwer :o
At 4:05 you've got the best representation of what an "investigative journalism" award looks like
The CIA Award for Excellency in Journalism:
There's Brett's knowledge of the human body, Gavs tech precision and Dan's explosive expertise. And Scott.
Scott brought the snacks.
To be fair there was a little bit of science with Gaunson 😂
@@rafaeljoublanc129 Scott is deffo scientific, proven time and again, however not really "trained".
And then you got poor Derek who's not even in the video at all.
@@KimMcCumberScott brought the teeth.
“Okay so hear me out, two Aussies and two Brits walk into a massive open field with a bowling ball canon” 😂
In Montana!🤣
Mindblowing 🤯
God, *N o .*
two aussies and two brits walk into a bar and everyone suddenly wears safety protection
@@marcjones8531 Won't you meet me in Montana
The banter between the boys has been great every video with you all colabing. Love these cross over vids. Hope for many more.
It really puts into perspective of what canons through history did to people. It’s awesome and terrifying all at once.
Alakablam.
idk why but i still wonder if that was realistic :D
@@mercetajsSeeing is believing and in this case seeing it may not be the best thing in the world it's much more gruesome 😂
i was just thinking that myself. what scene it would have been for a group of men and literally having a dude explode next to you... and then getting absolutely maimed by pieces of skull....
Yes, and terrifying and awesome were a perspective based on which side of the cannon you were standing.
Don't you just hate it when your having a drink with your friends and someone just throws a 20pound bowling bowl at 400mph at your head
*396
It looks like 20 tho when you're drunk. Probably
*9.07kg @ 643.68kph*
im sayin
Yea I know! and yet you were only able to get a 7 -10 split!
Yeah, that's a real "oh no, not again" moment every time.
Frame by frame at 4:23 you can see a flash when the bowling ball impacts the head!! I love that phenomenon
probably some static charge accumulated on the bowling ball while leaving the canon
I think it's just gunpowder in this case. It didn't happen on the 1st one and it wasn't that same bright white flash.
The four of you should do ALL of your videos together. Brilliant and hillarity all around.
So for those wondering:
400 mph is ~180 m/s. That's roughly how quickly a cannonball would be traveling mid-flight in the 18th and 19th centuries. The destruction is a good match for some period accounts too: There's a story of two French captains who hated each other. At the battle of Vellinghausen, a cannonball decapitated one man, and a piece of the skull put out the other captain's eye.
So seeing all those pieces scattered so far, just gives a sense of the destruction a cannonball can do.
guess there's a reason guns are sometimes called hand cannons
That's because they are@@vinsanity40k. Cannons came first, then muskets, and so on.
@@anonymousapproximation8549 correct me if i'm wrong but i think the word "handcannon" appeared later. i know at some points, cannons were called guns, and that's why when rifles like the arquebus or the musket came around, they picked the name "gun" up and as they became more proeminent in warfare, Cannons lost their "Gun" name
i believe handcannons appeared later as a term to refer to particularily powerful pistols
@@arrosoir4544 I feel like "handcannon" _would_ be the primitive term for a gun. After all, it basically a cannon, in your hand...
@@anonymousapproximation8549 oh yes it would make sense, but what i'm saying is that i'm pretty sure the term gun actually came before rifles to refer to cannon.
That moment Dan is perplexed by what he got in his hands is priceless ahahahahah
how did it get there? i'm so confused.
@@moos5221I'm pretty sure it was filled with the green blood
@@moos5221They're in the middle of a field in Montana. There's nothing else to do there. Probably a large party nearby or some sort of banjo concert.
@moos5221 they use them to keep the blood in the right spots
@@kanegasiI think you missed the part where they were inside the skulls. It's to contain the green blood.
Pure Napoleonic realism level here!! Those battles were gruesome and yet so legendary! Now I have a better understanding of the ordeal Marshall Lannes had to face when he saw a good friend of his being literally decapitated by a cannonball, only to follow a similar fate when another cannonball ricocheted and destroyed his leg, eventually killing him after a sad, agonizing death...What a man!!
No wonder why the Emperor himself cried profusely the death of one his best friends/ Marshalls, but also one of the best military geniuses of all time!! RIP, brave Marshall Lannes!!
Been waiting for this collab for many, many years. It did not disappoint. I always thought the Slow Mo guys and How Ridiculous would get on splendidly. Best friends forever!!!!
One of the greatest and most wanted collabs I'd say. So happy to see intense slow motion with the ridiculous nature of breaking things, match made in heaven.
What I was not expecting was the absolute brutality of seeing a bowling ball smash a skull into shards, I'm getting a headache just watching it smash them.
Happy too see Dan sitting this one out as a test dummy😂
Honestly, seems like a cop out if you ask me 😂😂
Dan polishing his balls made my day.
All those failed clones, though.
@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5If the Slow-Mo Guys could film Jesus walking on water at 100,000 frames per second I’d repent in a heartbeat.
Well Dan 47 wasn't so wise. It's good to see that Dan 48 opted for the dummy heads instead.
It’s Brett and Scott’s reaction to Dan’s bigs words for me 🤣 Classic How Ridiculous 😂
Came here to say this lol
That they both noticed it and commented on it at the same time. The exact same thought went through both their heads before either one of them had the opportunity to know whether the other one was gonna bring it up or not.
"Oooh nice word"
You obliterated like 15k worth of ballistic dummies and are worried about the table 😂 love you guys
I just want to say, I'm french and I used you guys' videos to learn english a while back. So thank you all
Seeing the flash of fire as the ball hit the first head in the line was mindblowing. We need more collabs between these two channels
mind blown? yeah they sure were blown
Gav: "Is everyone ready for what is potentially the most questionable thing we've filmed?"
Dan's exposed junk in that balloon video: "Am I a joke to you?"
Lol
Dan;s package isnt questionable, its pure art
What video is that
Can't have that
@@borek92The wind tunnel from I believe Planet Slow Mo.
Love Gav and Dan - been a fan and watching for years! Brett and Scott, have watched them for years now also. Slo Mo Guys and How Ridiculous are "must-watch" every time a video drops. Great to see you all Legends together (we're missing one - where's the Legend, Derek?) Great video, and a great crew and group as always.
A chilling idea of the old wars of the past ,using cannonballs over history😢. The carnage!
Slow mo guys and their bantering are like wine. They get better and better with time. I see the time approaching where no actual slowmo content is needed anymore and I'm satisfied with seeing them joking around in front of the camera.
fortunately funny people get funnier with age!
top gear syndrome
That‘s called Behind the Scenes... :)
@@armiferafatum2459”I remember when this was a car show”
Like Waldorf and Statler.
It’s so wild how different the energy is here between how HR acts on their channel and this one, it’s like night and day but so good to see. Great chemistry too. Hope you guys can do more together
That seems to happen with guests. I wonder if they are just being respectful or nervous. Or maybe they dont feel the need to display so much energy since it's not thier channel
That's the magic of editing.
HR's videos would actually be tolerable to watch if they were edited similarly
@@Herlgaragreed
@@Herlgar I tried to watch the matching video on HR's channel. Emphasis on *tried*. The editing is atrocious.
I was amazed with how perfectly you got that straight.
At the same time,
That was truly terrifying!
Lets just appreciate how over the years, Dan has gotten in better shape. Seriously good job
The double upload from both channels just shows how committed they are to this video that we’ve been waiting years for!
Nah
So good to see such a bunch of wholesome, fun-loving characters together... making heads explode.
😂😂😂😂
Well done, you win! 😂😂
If you donate your body to science, this is what they do with it.
Slo-mo guys have such good senses of humor. 10/10 wit.
So happy this collab came to be! Love watching both of your channels!
Strange to see Brett and Scott so chill, without their own brand of energy and made up Aussie-slang etc that they act up on their own channel
no such thing as "made up" aussie slang, its slang, and funny enough, we use it them alot
They probably just took it down a notch and let the slow mo guys take the lead
They're vastly better and more enjoyable this way than they are on their own channel.
@earthknight60 19 million subscribers would disagree
nah a lot of people would agree but we kinda just have to take it since they appeal to the kids more.@@cable7152
IN THA FACE!!!
Will there be a colab with kentucky ballistics , slo mo guys, and how ridiculous i cant wait to find out
Isn’t that from Hangover?
Love the fact that we’re all so old that Gavin Free is going gray.
Always great fun to see dem boyz of How Ridiculous!
Gav, that editing for the repeat impacts w/ the speed dropping rapidly at 9:10 was SO GOOD.
And with a bit of calculation, you can see that a sixth head would have got much less damage because there wasn't much kinetic energy left.
that's a regular thing on the channel, get used to it 😎
That was somehow considerably more brutal than I thought it would be
ikr? the way the skull split in two and parts of it were actually launched in front of the ball just shows the amount of kinetic energy that transferred on that one. the way the flesh appears to liquify under the intense pressure of the bowling ball. marvelous. good stuff to study if you want to be a filmmaker. Just make the dummy as realistic as possible and get the cannon a bit further away and film it for your movie, practical effects are the greatest thing when it comes to organic looking stuff. cgi is overrated.
@@tommaparI agree but CGI is definitely underrated
Makes you sort of relieved they didn't opt for the red insides
@@tommaparyeah but why didn’t the bowling ball not even break a little skulls aren’t that fragile
We waited so long for this collab I even forgot we wanted it so badly 🌚
The Slow Mo Guys, This is so fun! I'm happy I found your channel!
I can't believe it didn't happen sooner, this colab was inevitable
The bowling ball polish was on point tbh, well done dan!
Jesus himself couldn't have done it better!
Imposter!! 😮
8 year olds Dude....
@@korganrocks3995 common footages showing how much respect Christians have to their god:
This was an amazing collaboration! Love both of your channels!
Imagine how many more troops an iron canonball might travel through before stopping. Imagine the terrain surrounding the cannons has been groomed to exactly match the ballistic path of the cannon balls. Balls deep.
What i liked about this was how real the reactions seemed. Howridiculous is usually very over selling the reactions. Seeing them in a more natual environment was nice. You watch their video they did, and they are much louder on their channel.
Can't stand their channel. Constantly yelling, and all they do is drop stuff
Dan and Gav are professionals. Howridiculous are kids screwing around.
@@scottbilger9294 lol what? theyre both professionals, in fact they have the same job, theyre both youtubers, and in that arena HR dwarfs TSMG so claiming theyre just "kids screwing around" is pretty dumb. Personally I prefer the way the slow mo guys go about it but How Ridiculous is plenty valid in its own right and they seem like nice guys who got along well with Gav and Dan
They got so uncomfortable when Dan pulled off that piece of rubber 😂
So happy with the wealth of content we're getting from Slow Mo Guys these times, after the awful COVID period
And also because he's not in let's plays or much of anything to do with said gaming company
agreed, during that time I thought something happened between gav and dan, but glad to see they have been back ever since then
@@mrdino6391 why is that? did something happen between them?
@@edn6671 not to my knowledge but I think I remember hearing gavin was only really going to appearing in videos as a guest I think don't quote me on that
K 🤡
I am reminded of the opening scenes of Gettysburg movie. This was another great collaboration!!!
You are thinking of Glory, but yes, after watching this, you realize how accurate it was.
LETS GOOOOO!! I’ve been wanting them to collab for so SO LONNGGGG
Not knowing these people... Running into some Aussies and Brits in the middle of nowhere in Montana would be the wildest experience
8:14 Remember kids, that for a few hundred years battlefields regularly saw solid shot cannons firing into line formations of riflemen.
FINALLY!!! 😃😃
The two channels I’ve been wanting to collab for years!!!!
It's funny watching how different countries express humor. You guys are all funny, but in your own unique ways.
The Aussie and Brittish Humour is simply Unmatched!!! What a great video lads 🇦🇺🇬🇧🇦🇺🇬🇧
Not really
The British accent is just way too annoying. What's wrong with them swallowing words!
@@tullo5564don’t watch their videos then lol
For a moment there I thought you wrote Unattached... yes, these guys are very unattached when it comes to sanity!
Glory to USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 false English speakers
@@tullo5564 Swallowing words is what makes us infinitely smarter than Americans..
I have always though for years that this would be a great collaboration. So glad it finally happened.
Randomly remembered this channel, love you guys
Great shot from the side of the 5 heads when you showed us the speed of the bowling ball dropping per hit, clever and it’s like info I didn’t know I wanted
This is an an entertaining but also interesting look into canon physics.
Makes you really appreciate soldiers that actually went up against canons,
considering it could shred half a dozen men in formation instantly.
At least back in those days if a canonball hit you, you had a high probability of instant death, unless of course it takes an arm or a leg. Otherwise, any head or body shot is instant death and you die never knowing you were even hit...
Cannonballs are weak. I have three words for you.
Gustav railway gun.
That was pretty horrifying...and educational. Makes you think really hard about the life of the old wooden ship sailors and the naval battles, and what the effects were of those broadsides.
There are surviving ships and skeletons that show that splinters were the real killers on ships hit with cannon.
There is even plate armour that shows impact from cannonballs, and demonstrates why armoured knights didn't persist for long once gunpowder was introduced.
Yeah, but the ones that sweep the decks would be brutal. I know splinters killed most that were inside the ships.
@@baldieman64
Just like it was shrapnel from the rocks in the walls and splinters from fences/trees during the Civil and Revolutionary war that killed most who took cover behind things. @@baldieman64
Yeah I didn't even think of the fact that these things were used to rip through entire ships. People didn't stand a chance back then
I have a drinking game for anybody watching a marathon of the slow-mo guys. Every time they say like it was nothing, take a shot.
YOU DONT KNOW HOW LONG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DREAM COLLAB BRO!!!!!
We have waited so long for this collab. Haven't watched How Ridiculous since they stopped doing the tower stuff as much, but this was awesome. We even got some "Science With Gaunson"! "That's right...we do have bones" 😂🤣
I thought those might be the tower guys! The bowling ball should have tipped me off, now that I think about it...
@@korganrocks3995 Totally, in fact, as Gav says when he and Dan go to Perth that should be the collab video down there. Some old school Tower bowling ball videos down under with the Slow Mo Guys
I still watch them fairly regularly but I do miss the tower stuff. I'm not sure they're allowed to film there anymore. But on the other had at one point the tower stuff was almost all they did and it was bound to get stale after a while so I respect the diversification of their content
that's a real shame if they can't film there any longer. Totally agree though, coming up with ideas for that must really have been hard after a while. Having said that though, I have a bunch more ideas they could do with that so I'm sure we'll see them at that/a tower again eventually. They could surely build their own tower at this point though. With a lift, @howridiculous ! 🤣
8:24 there's something deeply satisfying knowing that each of those skulls are unique.
I've been waiting for this collab for ages
I love their love for unique words, I think it's something more people should appreciate
It's just ridiculous, how different Stanford and Gaunson are in a video, like this...
In their videos, they are jumping all over the place, laughing, screaming, but now, they are just standing there and walking around, saying stuff... Priceless! 😅
I always worry about chemistry when it comes to collabs but the banter was thoroughly top notch all round 👌
English and Aussies together always provide top bants.
Damn, that was freakin awesome!! Well played boys
It's nice seeing you guys having fun and making millions. Very entertaining. Talk about rolling heads.
Forget who has the most followers, collab with ballistic high speed!
Agreed!! They are gonna be massive in the next few years
All three
Fascinatingly gross! As an avid reader of Alexander Kent's nautical history novels, this brings home the gruesome reality of the damage that canon-fire does. Men were killed or injured by flying bones from other victims! Great video and excellent to see these two dynamic duos together 👍😄
It's hard to quantify just how gratifying that was to watch. Helps to imagine what the battlefields were like when humans had to sustained heavy cannon fire. Blood and body bits blown everywhere. That would have been far more gruesome and impossible to forget seeing.
Dan, our SlowMo Rexy!
My wife and I have been saying for years we'd love to see a Ridiculous Slow Mo collab.... we are SO happy 😊
Always cool to watch these Slo Mo episodes. How about two bowling balls colliding with each other??
The Windows sounds were brilliant. 7:48 This part had me all LOL!
I love the addition of the deceleration of the bowling ball through the five dummies👍👍
2 of my favorite you tubers together...this is awsome
5:25 missed opportunity to cut to the first head exploding with the error noise
Valid.
4:52 you can see the steel frame of the car bend from the force of the cannon, no wonder the guy doesn't have a head anymore
“Embrace the jank.” Love it! 😂
Been waiting for this collab for years and it was so much better than my expectations!!! I would love a revisit.
To see the gel look so viscous when its usually so tough, jesus the force behind that ball
This team up made me extremely happy!
7:59 What we all came to see! One if the greatest things ever put on film!
Slo Mo Guys and How Ridiculous -- an excellent collaboration. Thanks very much. We now want MORE.
I must say, the music that starts with the slow Mo video is the best part. Seriously, the music adds something I can't explain but I absolutely love it.
This is easy the coolest slow mo video i ever seen. Truly amazing!
3:08 when ur homies kick the ball soo hard and ur the goal keeper💀
Seeing the bones of one skull destroy the next even before the bowling ball arrived was fascinating and very humbling.
Hope you guys enjoyed your time here in Montana!. That was somehow considerably more brutal than I thought it would be.
we don't need any more attention.
@@Guitarplayer22222
I beg to differ! Where were the gents from across the pond filming???
@Guitarplayer22222 You wuss!
reminds me of the time you played flinchless bouncy doo with jeremy and it bounced off his head. " i wanna see it coming jack" words forever cemented into my brain.
I'm not sure there's two better channels to collaborate. What I really wanna see is Dan and Gav taking on some of the competitions the Ridiculous boys get up to.
So much more enjoyable to see Brett and Scott react naturally in this video! Great collab
Just... Wow! That escalated quickly. That was fascinating and deeply disturbing at the same time. And, I'm almost as impressed with that column of fire coming out of the end of that cannon as I am by the level of precision and carnage on display. Great video, as usual, fellas. Really well done. Firggin' hilarious, too. This one went right up to 11! All the stars!💥💫👍
when they were in awe when dan said displaced was cute 😂😂
Look at that the spine is impacting the next guys face...just brilliant
Lets not forget the hours gav does looking at these for hours on end
Slow mo guys are like the Myth Busters but without the science and with all the explosions. Love it
I wonder what an elevator's wind pressures are like in normal operation both up and down, and then Falling(IE: during a test or demolition). that could add in, some new science to the community and help both the safety in normal and demo. of the building.
These have been the best colabs!
What I love about this is how it confirms, for modern viewers, the kind of damage and remains osteo-archeologists find on/in old battlefields. granted, direct headshots would have been rare, but say, in a naval battle, they would have happened-- it's a shame you weren't able to get leg/thigh bones and line them up for what it would have been like to be on a ship and have Brett make an analysis of the damage and potential survival chances.
Would absolutely love to see some behind the scenes footage of this collab.
