  • It's Giant Balloon June! Gav shoves the slow camera inside a giant 6ft water balloon. Dan is on the outside. Can he make it in using only his head? Yes. Yes he can.

    I was already laughing from the dive but hearing Gav folding up with laughter in the background had me in tears, you made my day.

    You know, it occurred to me recently that Dan might be the single most photographed human in existance. Like, there are celebrities with months worth of video of them, but because he's been the subject of so many slow-motion videos for this channel, there real potential that he's the most photographed human who's ever lived

      Particularly when you consider that 4 seconds of footage on the slo-mo camera is somewhere between hours to days of footage, depending on the frames its shot at...

      I think Gavin said something about that very thing in the past. Might be on the 2nd channel, maybe?

    Dan charging into the top of the frame like an asteroid about to smash into a planet is another iconic SMG image

    5:57 I love how his face just comes into frame at that angle like a bird of prey swooping in on a fish or something lmao

  • @GippyHappy
    @GippyHappy Месяц назад +2

    I had to pause at 4:45, laugh for like 5 minutes, replay it, watch it frame by frame, and watch it a few more times. I haven't laughed that hard in so long. Scorpion is right!
    I hope Dan didn't hurt himself too bad. Don't forget you two are getting older, you could end up with a sore spot that lasts! Thank you for your commitment, though, Dan. Maybe it's payback for laughing at that old guy.

  • @firsteditionpepe193
    @firsteditionpepe193 11 месяцев назад +13

    Next year, similar idea, but instead of a Danicorn, you just place the balloon at the end of a slip n slide. This will enable Dan to pick up enough speed to blast through it AND have reduced chance (probably) of spinal injury!

    5:59 might be one of the greatest things on this channel; dan just flying into frame head first like some sort of air strike is so funny

  • @schnozz87
    @schnozz87 11 месяцев назад +41

    I've been watching you guys for well over 10 years now - I remember vividly one particular night lying in bed watching your videos crying with laughter until about 5am... and I'm pleased to say, you still have the ability to bring tears of laughter (Dan's face slowly entering frame at 5:57 💀) - thank you!

    This channel is the equivalent of quality not quantity. The pacing of videos and fascination we will always have with slow mo pretty much guarantees long term success.

  • @forgotn42

    The fact that he came in from the top of the frame in the failed attempt is sending me. I wasn't expecting that level of commitment to the bit.

  • @errolyonne1788
    @errolyonne1788 11 месяцев назад +2

    I think the coolest thing is at 11:36, while Dan is encased in water, if you look at the right side of the screen there are droplets hitting his "water skin" leaving ripples like a raindrop in a pool despite the fact that everything going on with every aspect of those moments is moving. His shoulder and the water encased around him have near the same velocity/direction, so the ripples spread around the curvature of his shoulder in near perfect circles like nothing at all was moving.

    I don’t know if you guys realize… but, of all the amazing things you have done. This simple fun video produced the BEST high resolution and quality clips you’ve ever made . The water coming out of the balloon was truly ART! Good luck on your next 100 videos… you set the bar too high ! Absolutely stunning. The lighting, the angle, the frame rate , the flying hairy guy …. DAN . Superb!
    Great
