Hi
I just ate money in a vid 💪💵
Hi
Can a giant hammer break into a bank safe?
Didn't expect you to upload
Please do a block of quartz at night!! It’s piezoelectric, so it arcs/sparks from electricity when crushed! Should look amazing!!
The quartz is an excellent idea. 💡💡💡
we need to get this up to the top!
Yes! Awesome suggestion. Thumbed up to help get it noticed.
Does it matter what type of quartz/what colour?
@@howridiculous I don't think so, I think most types of quartz will do fine for it.

I too am slack-jawed that Gaunson’s “are we scraping the bottom of the barrel” got no reaction there was clear effort put into that delivery!

Yes as well as them missing the fly that got obliterated along with the shaving cans by some exceedingly bad luck!!! And that they didn't notice it !!

That rainbow forming was beautiful
and they said nothing about it :/
Yeah
Glad I’m not the only one who saw it
there is another rainbow above the first rainbow
it is hardly visible
so its a double rainbow! right?
*right?*
*RIGHT?!*
Thanks
Just a heads up, those springs have crossed coils and have potential to slip past eachother kind of like when you snap your fingers. I worked for a spring manufacturing company for 6 years making high tensile springs with 1/2"+ diameter wire, the loads when comprsessed are in the thousands of pounds of pressure. Pro tip: be very careful with where they end up. 🙂
Yep. I worked as a mechanic, and I would not have been outside that bunker at all. They don't call manual strut spring compressors "widow makers" for nothing.
Omg that's one Giant Hammer you got!
That's 3x the biggest!
Those springs looked permanently deformed, so it probably wouldn't have killed anyone if the coils uncrossed.....although I could see losing a finger or two.
12:57 epic looking slo-mo into Herron choking on a fly
When smashing aerosol cans you need to have like a blow torch setup close by so it will auto ignite the butane used to pressurise them! Even more fun for the slowies.
Edit: seeing as more people keep commenting...
And I've commented this already
I would expect if the guys did it they would take all precautions to make sure they didn't burn more of Australia away!
Also I don't go around burning stuff so those precautions aren't something I've ever thought about.
I would say a 5 gal gas can with a few open flames for a nice fireball!
This is Australia AND it's summer and bushfires are pretty much THE WORST THING EVER!!!!!! I seriously hope the boys recognise that starting a catastrophic fire would probably kill the channel faster than the hammer destroyed everything else?????🤞🙏 Good suggestion but way too dangerous even for these guys!!!!!🤔👎
@@THESALMON8TR very understandable!!!
I'm too used to the damp UK!
@@THESALMON8TR what video did you watch? There is nothing to catch fire for 100s of metres in all directions. It's just not really their thing for algorithm and monetisation reasons.
I was thinking the same thing! It would be awesome to see the big fireball in slow mo. Butane, propane, gasoline and diesel.
Lads, I think it’s time to bring back the see-saw… with the hammer launching items off it!

You sir are a genius 👏
Start with one of those airbags as well, just for funzies!
YOU STOLE MY COMMENT I COMMENTED TWICE ON PREVIOUS VIDS
17:54 best recording from GoPro in this video. It’s like those obsidian pieces flying like meteoroid flying in the universe!
Yeah looks like you're flying through an asteroid belt
9:21 The GoPro has been scarred for life 😂😂😂😂
I'm a fan of the wine barrel. The surge out from the cracks followed by a second blast when it hits. I think you can also see the delay in the shockwave shaking the camera.
this comment will win slowy of the day
7:39 for everyone
Same
Agreed - Barrel is a great shot!
P.S. loving the hammer! 🔨
@@MistaWap nice, you actually used a timestamp correctly. 90% of the ones I see are 1-5 seconds too late or like 20 seconds too early. Hate it

Water explosions always do it for me, so the wood barrel with the green water was the slowy for me, but the Steel barrel with the red water is a good second for me
Keep up the crushin boys ;P
Thanks for the times
Thank you. We need more people like him
Thank you
Agree, wooden barrel just kept on giving, right from when the wood started splitting thru to the big green explosion of water at the end. Steel barrel and obsidian cube were great tho. I also liked watching the bouncing of the ball and tyre as they were being crushed.
Also... Need to do that drone trick with a 360 cam!! That would be amazing
I literally didn't want to watch the whole video. So I checked the comments, thanks so much!!!
Different color plastic pellets could be pressed by this into interesting designs if you make a mold to help form them. The pressure will generate enough heat to get the job done. The Legos gave me that idea.
I can't believe it's already (almost) been a whole year since this video was uploaded. It honestly feels like it hasn't been that long at all
For those of you who do HR's requests I compiled a list of all of the slow motion shots I saw & their timestamps.

PS. My favorite slow motion shot is the paint.
It’s shaving cream, not paint
Not all heroes wear capes.
I can’t decide between 10:33 or 14:56
Cool man
@@znachary Also a fly get destroyed along with the shaving cream which for some reason everyone seems to have missed!!
From a strictly mechanical point of view, I really liked the springs. You could see that as the springs were compressing it didn't slow the hammer one bit, but as soon as the coils stacked solid, there was a massive hesitation in the hammer for an instant.
The best looking one, my vote goes to the metal drum.
I love the reaction “I’M DUCKING IN!” “oh it got sausaged” or “sauced” couldn’t quite make it out
@@kevyndouty772 "oh, it got sorted." as in they really got sorted out. Or "put in their place" in American terms.
pretty sure that was just the playback rate of the slowie getting slowed down, you can see it speed up again to pretty much it's original speed right after
My favorite was the fly that got knackered with the shaving cans mainly because they didn't seem to notice it!!!
14:34. The barrel explosion made a rainbow. That was pretty neat.
14:14 - You actually can compress water. It was given the phrase “you can’t compress water” due to the impractical amount of compressive forces needed to actually compress water.
For me the water-filled barrel was the Slowie of the Day; the water coming out of the slats as the whole barrel compressed was so cool! Thanks for the great video guys! 🧡💜
How did they not make a Bunghole joke?
I agree
Same!
same
You are the Michael Buffer of RUclips comments 👍 greeeeat bro
The most genius part of all of this, is they can sell literally ANYTHING that’s safe to sell that they’ve destroyed. Like chunks of the acrylic block? Sold. Insane. Love it.
I love how at 4:15 you can watch the Lego piece fly, bounce and land on the hammer!
My favorite is the Obsidian Block. The way it shattered, it looked so amazing with all these sparkles.
Gaunsons face when no one laughed at his "bottom of the barrel" joke was PRICELESS
Wait when?
I laughed lol 😂
I had a good laugh
hahaha yeah that was great!
@@nick-sx5ob 7:58
I wonder how well an exercise ball filled with non-newtonian fluid would hold up against the hammer.
Might give it quite the work-out!!

Cat toys might not get _Slowie of the Day,_
However, "Wheel un Fortunate" Definitely gets _Quip of the Day!!_ 👏👏👏😂
I like how they get straight to the point without telling you what they’re doing and how they’ll do it for 10 minutes straight
they dont even explain how they managed to get a 3 ton hammer, i love it
Thank you for this amazing comment through Our Lord Jesus Christ in His Holy Name Amen.
But I want to know how they made the hammer
P
They had a block of ice I would melt
Guys, did you know that the US considered making aircraft carriers out of ice, that was saturated with wood pulp? You guys could easily make a wood pulp (sawdust or paper) ice cube block and test what the military thought was stronger than steel at stopping high speed impacts. The material is called pykrete.
That’s funny and a cool fact! I already knew it but still amazing fact!
They should do that!
@@lerza8327 think they should
Yeh we've got Pykrete on our list of stuff to maybe do next year, stay tuned!
@@howridiculous awesome! Looking forward to it.
One thing I noticed about the water based reactions is they seemed almost explosive. Maybe that would explain why avalanches can be so devastating. Fascinating
Consistent, certainly.
These guys have come a long way. I remember back when they started.
Love the new format, its great seeing you guys get right into it

Never gonna forget the video where they couldnt scream, best video ever
I really want to know if this hammer would explode a stack of paper like a hydraulic press does
don’t think so it might mangle it but it doesn’t have the high constant pressure required to crush it enough to explode
Nobody like it, it’s perfect

First video on this channel i’ve seen, another new favourite Aussie.

rainbow at 14:32
A bucket full of glowsticks at night would look spectacular, especially with a mix of different colours.
It's ok Jarrod good ideas aren't for everyone, bet you're good at drawing or something
but dangerous af
@ragin Caucasian if the glowsticks have diamond armor on them so they can't break and the juice won't fly everywhere, then it's fine
@@hhprincess647 diamond armor lmao
@ragin Caucasian do you realize whats in those things?
You guys are doing great🤩 Keep up all your hard work
You should do a giant throwing snap firework.
Maybe a hundred pounds or so.
No slowie will ever be more satisfying than atlas stone vs barrel.
Although last week's hammer vs spraypaint was also cool.
Editor Jack seems very talented and smart-a good compliment to the HR crew.
After seeing this you have to do a bunch of Glow sticks at night that would be epic
Steve would be proud...
Good job guys!
I love how they get straight into the content without 10 minutes of filler

@@erite_zx4499you probably weren't you are just looking for likes
Someday geologists will find pieces of obsidian in that field and determine there used to be a volcano nearby.
How ridiculous would that be?
Probably
You know what I wanna see? A channel breaking down the science behind why the things HR does to materials make them break the way they do, or why they don't break.
😂 love how you snuck in the "wheel unfortunate" dude perfect style. Not sure if anyone else noticed or watches them.
But all the slowies are wicked. Re watching all the hammer and axe videos. 👍🍻
6:34 This made my day
What about a tub of oobleck? I'd be curious to see the results!
Oh come on...watch any other video where they drop something heavy into it. It just splats out every time.
Or even better, a wooden barrel filled with oobleck!
@@thechad4485 I second this!!
@@michelleberry_mikef8552 I second your second-ing!
Does this ever make anyone think.."I wish Mythbusters had a phantom" 😅 These HR vids just keep getting better!
The acrylic block sacrificed its own life to save the Go-Pro. True hero.
I think the squashing of the paint can’s is the best Ha Ha ❤
I really enjoyed the barrel! That was pretty cool the way all the barrel slats peeled out, like i said pretty cool! The whole physics of all that weight slamming precision onto what ever you awesome people put under it! Love it!
Yeah, the barrel was a high point of the video. Sure, water is incompressible, which could lead you to think that it'd stop the hammer... but the sides of the barrel give out way before it gets to a fight of water vs hammer. So it's like stomping on a full and unopened soda can, scaled up, ohhh, about 500×.
They dropped Nigel in two and it looked like 2 times better
I liked the barrel
Yea me too but i think the fly getting destroyed inadvertently in the shaving cam slowmo takes it for me especially since no one has seemed to have noticed it either!!
The go pro getting knocked over by the obsidian at 17:54 was my favorite.
0:54 my ice machine when I ask for crushed ice:
The rainbow that the 44 gallon barrel made was so pretty!
Obsidian: You can't defeat me
Minecraft TNT: I know, but he can
* Giant hammer *
I feel like a bucket of glitter would look so cool getting smashed
Agreed. It’d fuck with the camera so bad 😂
Ikr lol
Oh no, the cleanup...
With spotlights on it
@@circuitgamer7759 not sure if you're joking but you wouldn't clean it up, you would just use all natural biodegradable glitter
you guys should make a compilation of the best clips and slowies from your entire channel
6:12 was the best for me
17:25 whomever came to see only obsidian 🔥❤️
Diamond pick axe: “look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our power”
I love how you can see the go-pro fly out at 9:43 during the slow-mo
I loved your video. I appreciated you making all these video for us
Can we see some ballistic dummies right next to the explosions? I’m sure we’re all wondering what would happen if a person was standing next to the exploding obsidian cube. Love the channel guys!
Great idea
Why not step it up and put a ballistic dummy under the hammer?
Haha that's what we were saying
“It’s a solid titanium cube, let’s not gloss over that”
“It’s not even glossy”
The stump burst as if someone had broken a chest from minecraft, and items scattered from there
Silly string is formed as it exits the nozzle. What you need is a big container of the material, with a plunger, forcing it out of an orifice. It will make a huge "yarn" ball in milliseconds.
Seeing Editor Jack crack up during the Nord segment was the best!
Make a giant sword that is basically the same thing but with a slit in the "cutting board" so it can slice the item all the way through!
My favorite slowy was actually that of the titanium cube giving the big middle finger to the hammer...
Gaunson had a good idea about putting a GoPro on the hammer head, but it needed to be set further back so the camera (and the shot) weren't interrupted by the debris.
I am always amazed by the slowies! Thanks for brightening our days with your content!
oh hey Gamma, interesting seeing you here 🧐
The slowies are why I watch how ridiculous
Minecraft Refrence in the Thumbnail
Oh nice, gamma radiation.
Ayyy gamma
I feel like a really cool slow-mo would be 100lbs of the world's finest glitter smashed by the giant hammer.
yes
The aftermath: That field would be sparkly for years. Glitter never goes away. I wore a t-shirt with the word "Angel" on the front, and wings on the back, made out of silver glitter. The type that flakes off easily.. That was two weeks ago. I STILL find glitter here & there.. Just from one shirt. Imagine 100 pounds of it! (just a tad over 45.3 kg)
mark rober moment
Kangaroo (20 miles away): “I’m tellin’ ya, Bob, that wasn’t a bird-it was part of a golf club. I’m not imagining things, I swear!”
Giant hammer + a pyramid of shaving cream cans = Instant blizzard. Just truly amazing.
I think it would be cool if they added a ballistics dummy near the impact point, especially for drops like the obsidian, would be interesting to see what would happen to a person in that situation
I'm guessing you watched Mythbusters back in the day?
They'd be dead, that is what would happen to a person.
yeah lol with how sharp obsidian can be
Ohhhh yeah that would be awesome
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who had that intrusive thought.
my favorite slowies where definitely the wine barrel because of the water going through the slats and the subsequent explosion of green, the obsidian because of the sparkle and when the shards flew over the camera, and the water drum because of the explosion of red water.
I was thinking about you guys putting a metal wedge in the wood so that it'd actually split when the hammer came down and obliterated the log.
The definition of storm king getting shattered to pieces
6:34 I liked the Dude Perfect Overtime reference here.
15:10 is probably the best slowmo
I would get mad i a minute with all those flying animals in my face..
Lucky I don't live there haha 🤣🤣
Definitely acrylic cube slowly is my fave☺️
When I was a kid I had an air powered rocket where you had to stomp on an air pad to fire the rocket... would love to see a bigger version of this powered by a wack from the big hammer
They should
Sounds amazing
Cause you can't compress water
@@andrewrobinson4019 correct, you certainly can't
You should ask Elon Musk for the rocket I bet he would do it
My favorite was Titanium. It's non-compliance / stubbornness was quite impressive.
I agree with the other person that said : try Quartz !
the jokes towards dudeperfect are so funny! i love both the channels haha
Yo, why does Rexy always in danger. Give the Dino a break! Lol! Just kidding! Great video guys, keep up the awesome work!!!
The springs were very interesting. U can clearly see they work exactly as intended as they compress perfectly until fully compressed. If they had stopped the hammer’s momentum at that point, then the springs would have pushed the hammer back at maximum force. However, the springs did not stop the hammer. Thus, the springs permanently deformed and did not push the hammer back.
Hooke's law right?
@@nathanblackman1063 Hooke's law just says that the amount of force needed to compress or extend a spring some distance scales linearly with the distance. It's not about springs getting smashed by hammers, although if you want to derive your own law about this maybe it could be named after you.
@@desmond-hawkins 'Hooke's law just says that the amount of force needed to compress or extend a spring some distance scales linearly with the distance' - up to the limit of proportionality where the force and extension are no longer directly proportional, which is why the springs are permanently deformed by the hammer, otherwise they would just bounce back into place.
What blew my mind is the shake/vibration you can see in the hammer after the bounce after impact. I have to wonder how close the hammer was to being shook to pieces!
I loved watching the movement of that spring as it flew through the air.
Fun fact: obsidian isn't actually that difficult to break, its like strong glass, but it makes sharp shards if it does break so don't touch it. If you're unprofessional of course.
Bro i have years of minecraft
To mine
Obsidian you need diamond pickaxe
SO hell yeah is quite strong
If it wasnt you would mine with wood pickaxe
@@aroladelepareceumbambu3592 And yet to mine and shape obsidian in real life, you just need a good rock and a steady hand. It's amazing how video games are nothing like real life. If you want to argue that point then go ahead and argue with the ancient Mayans, Aztecs, and Incans who all used obsidian weapons and never had a diamond pickax ever.
All obsidian is is when lava is rapidly cooled when it comes into contact with water. It forms a kind of glassy material, which is obsidian. It's ability to be chunked into incredibly sharp edges (sharper than a surgical scalpel) is it's pro. The con is that it's brittle and can shatter like glass. It's a bit stronger than glass, but it's not stronger than a diamond.
I think it's just a way to attract people as well as to record footage of something fun.
