      I'm definitely ordering one (edit: just did!), but I'm just curious why don't they ship until next February?

      I am sitting here saying I want one to cuddle with. Trying to give my partner hints. Maybe he doesn't get it! 😅

    • @randiskye4444
      @randiskye4444 Год назад

      ​@@alltoohalliwellMy understanding is that the company takes the orders first, then after the ordering window is closed in November, they'll run of all the plushies for this campaign, then ship them all. This way they bear absolutely no risk of running off a batch of Jacques (in this case) and having any unsold stock.

      It is always amazing to hear really niche experts talk about their area of interest and just how naturally it flows. I'm a court reporter, so I've gotten the opportunity to listen to many experts in oddly specific areas - never a whip expert, of course, but definitely some really unique areas of science.

    The "oh crap siren" is very real. I'm a fire performer. When I'm learning a new trick I mess up a ton with dry props but the moment i add fire, its a lot easier to do everything right. It's like my body knows "mess this up and it's gonna hurt."

    • @nat3007
      @nat3007 8 месяцев назад +1

      I'm now really questioning the convention who suggested we start with fire juggling when no one had juggled before. I wasn't brave enough

  • @jenniferproctor439
    @jenniferproctor439 Год назад +212

    It's interesting to see how even in the lab how you have some subtle extra body movements that show how heavily you've clearly integrated music into your muscle memory. Music does wild things to change the body. I saw a biosensor study on a drummer in drum corps years ago that found they were hitting physical exertion markers like an olympic sprinter but sustaining it over a much longer term and then even when the drummer was on the sideline getting the sensors adjusted, his body reacted just from hearing the music start. I also read a book from a neurology study of professional musicians' brains about how learning a musical instrument to a mastery level can optimize the brain structures not just hearing, but also math and language and build interesting connections to all sorts of different processing centers. These kind of studies are just so fascinating. I also loved hearing you explain - it reminds me of the book On Looking - about expertise and how it changes how you see the world because of it.

    • @HerbalMoon17
      @HerbalMoon17 Год назад +3

      I don't know if it was my nerves singing or my adrenaline flowing or what, but every time I heard the cadence for run-on when I was in band, I could literally feel my body revving up to hit the field.
      Even now, nearly twenty years out of high school, hearing run-on gives me goosebumps. O.o

  • @bettyadamsoveranalyzes

    Scientists: Hey you!
    Jacq: Me?
    Scientists: You are very weird, can we confine you in a strange room and watch you for a couple of hours?
    Jacq: "Le' Gasp! Of course. I'd be delighted!
    Speaking as an ecologist who usually deals with sasquatch quality videos I wish I could lure in my subjects this easily.

    • @Ozzie2191
      @Ozzie2191 Год назад +5

      And scientist is an actual French speaker it sounds like, rather than his faux accent.

  • @TechGirl84
    @TechGirl84 Год назад +29

    I love that he showed up in full costume! But seriously, that was absolutely fascinating. I didn’t realize he knew the science of whip cracking so thoroughly.

  • @CrystalSetsuna
    @CrystalSetsuna Год назад +79

    I love how even for a scientific experiement, he has to put on the outfit. Lol. Although he was really rocking the pirate look with the black motion cap on.

  • @thehuggz-i9k
    @thehuggz-i9k Год назад +89

    Ok... I mean you're shows are awesome. I hope to get to see one someday, but I'm an absolute NERD when it comes to listening to people talk about their niche. It's great getting to hear the little details learned over years of experience which are normally only distilled into silent effortless practical application. I mean, it's the fundamental cause of the Dunning Kreuger effect, right? I just love hearing the answer to me asking in my head, "This looks fairly straightforward, what am I missing that makes this a trained skill?" Thanks for sharing!

    • @dawnieb.7394
      @dawnieb.7394 Год назад +3

      Same same! I could watch the entire 2 and 1/2 hours; I love stuff like this. And it's even better when it's for SCIENCE! 😁

  • @NicTheDig
    @NicTheDig Год назад +82

    Welcome to the scientific process, it can be a long slog! 😂 Already got my plushy order in, maybe one day I'll make it over to a show from Europe and bring it along. Thanks for the awesome entertainment!

  • @wolfmoon09able
    @wolfmoon09able Год назад +34

    This was super cool to see. I love how sweet the lab folks were about your comfort.

    • @whitedragoness23
      @whitedragoness23 Год назад +2

      There’s a point in the video when he lifts up his whip and taking about it. The scientist quickly back away as if they are afraid that deadly whip might touch them

  • @karenjones1
    @karenjones1 Год назад +42

    That was surprisingly interesting. I'd never though about how you held the whip, the different flicks you do, or where the whip rolls out to. Thanks for sharing this.

  • @kaceyrhiannon9321
    @kaceyrhiannon9321 Год назад +26

    Very cute plush *ordered* :) I know they were working more scientifically on the body motion/handling but would have loved to have seen that tracker track a whip flip too :)

  • @franceslarina5508

    Awesome stuff! I just saw you a week ago at King Richard’s Faire, and I also do research at northeastern, what a small world! Dagmar Sternad, the head of the action lab whose voice you can briefly hear in the middle of the video, was even on my dissertation committee. As a music scientist myself, it’s always awesome to see science and the performing arts interact like this, so thank you.

  • @Dept_Of_Ducks

  • @Bethlam
    @Bethlam Год назад +10

    This was so awesome for two reasons. 1) listening to the science behind your crack is fascinating (pun intended)😜 2) YOUR PLUSHIE CAME OUT! I had to get buy a few because my kids threatened to steal mine if I didn’t buy them one too. We bond over your RUclips videos.

  • @nickdejager8873
    @nickdejager8873 Год назад +34

    Interesting that they had you do it in costume. I would have expected one of those black suits with the ping-pong balls. Ah, there it is.
    I imagine the 'whips have a mind of their own' based on how the individual hides stretch and flex, and how they are braided.

  • @heathers.9740
    @heathers.9740 Год назад +4

    This was fascinating to learn about how you move and can recognize what the whip is going to do based on your grip or position!

  • @sebbohnivlac
    @sebbohnivlac Год назад +14

    I've always thought that if I could see Jacques perform in person, I'd suggest "In The Hall of The Mountain King." Now I know he's at least worked on it.

  • @Ailieorz
    @Ailieorz Год назад +44

    Ok number 1, did they ask for the costume or did ya just feel like it? :P
    2. It'd be interesting to see the difference in motion between you, Adam and Jennifer to see how differently you perform basically the same action

      @roronoazoro8322 Год назад +2

      @geodude77 I have played Dark sider sthree, but it's kind of Got that combat cross castlevania type. Feel to it, I'm talking about where it's literally just a whip.

    • @geodude77
      @geodude77 Год назад +2

      Good point 😅 I had forgotten about that until a bit after I had posted the comment. It's pretty much just swung around as a loose chainsaw blade and never really used for any type of accuracy either

  • @jarrodtroyer
    @jarrodtroyer Год назад +5

    Honestly, I would love to see all of the footage. I am very interested in it, and all of the minute differentiations that occur that you may not consciously think about anymore.

  • @skipperdani
    @skipperdani Год назад +2

    The "I could go for days" explanation feels very much the same as swinging and catching nunchucks. I'd love to see a comparison between movements using a whip, nunchucks, and three-section staff.

  • @victoriam.4927
    @victoriam.4927 Год назад +19

    It’s so wild to see someone who knows the science but has no experience with this application & someone who’s an expert on the application but doesn’t know the science behind it collect & discuss data together.

  • @JustinSBarrett
    @JustinSBarrett Год назад +13

    This was quite a fascinating experience!
    On a technical (audio) note, I'm not sure how you had set up your home audio equipment, but even though you had the Rode mike set up in a good place to pick up your voice, that's not what actually captured the sound used in the video. It sounds like it was the mic built into the camera. You might want to review your audio chain and run some more tests to get that working correctly next time.
