Shooting Ballistic Gel Birds at Silicone Fabio with
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 июн 2024
- Adam Savage is a HUGE fan of both @bobbyfingers and @theslowmoguys, so when he was approached to build an air cannon to shoot a ballistics gel goose at 75 mph at a silicone Fabio Lanzoni head in a Texas quarry, he was ALL over it! (Who wouldn't be?!) Here's the story of how Adam built the cannon, how this three-channel collaboration came together, and how he felt stepping back into his old MythBusters shoes. And be sure to watch @bobbyfingers' Fabio and the Goose: • Fabio and the Goose and @theslowmoguys' 75 MPH Bird to the Face: • 75mph Bird to the Face... for the REST of the story.

Did you see the Moonlight Towers? We went to Austin for the eclipse, and they were on my must see list. Very cool bit of history!!
I just did 123... :)
Bobby's only done a handful of videos (they are really proper films, btw) and he's already a legend.
Oops. 2, 1, 3 here. Not a huge deal honestly. Just as enjoyable no matter which order you go about it. Much love!
A perfect day in the quarry. Thanks for all your expertise and for keeping us safe. - Gav
What are we doing next?
@@tested more Myths? please and thank you! i'd love to see! Myths are always around and never ending! maybe even just do more balistic stuff? maybe even re-re-revist myths from mythsbusters!
@@testedyou guys are truly a brilliant match for creating content together. what a joy to watch!
How's Dan doing after the fist fight?
@@testedwhatever it is.... I am ready.
Bobby said "I asked one of the Mythbusters, he said no, but the other one said yes" His video is hysterical video theater.
We love that line.
"Video theater" is how I'll describe Bobby Fingers from now on. Spot on.
I'm a Patron of Bobby Fingers, so I saw his video yesterday and couldn't wait for you yours to come out! When he says "I reached out to the guy from Mythbusters, and he said 'no'", I though, that seems unlikely... then "so I called the other guy from Mythbusters, and he said yes" and I got so excited. Love Bobby. The time, effort, expense, and artistry he puts in to making things that are just singularly weird is fantastic.
Hahah, we loved that line.
I think we all imagined that Jamie wouldn't wish to be a part of it, and I'm glad that Adam followed through. I hope this is not going to be his last rodeo making old school Mythbusters type of work, but hopefully the first of a few more should the opportunity arise.
haha I can hear Jamie in my head "No", though it makes me happy to know they reached out to him also though :)
I also watched it yesterday morning and spent all of yesterday hyped like a kid on Christmas. It's such a special feeling when all your favorite creators come together.
@@tested As a long time patron of Tested and Slomo Guys (Glad to be introduced to Bobby!) , I've been rewatching all of Mythbusters recently and seeing this collab kind of felt surreally perfect. Must have been such a strange throwback for Adam to be doing that kind of work again!
Bobby's frightening creative mind, Adam's WEALTH of life experience, Gav's technical filming prowess and Dan's generalist skills and experience with ballistics and explosives. What a powerful team up. Your fantasy camp was also ours and I'm super happy this viewer dream scenario finally happened. Thank you!!
It's a situation where the whole is exactly the sum of its parts, and each part is so magnificent on its own that it's an entirely new thing to see them together.
It's been years since I've watched an episode of Mythbusters, but seeing Adam wearing a black shirt and wide-brimmed hat, standing in a quarry, huddled around a high-speed camera instantly brought me back.
Seeing Adam’s emotion from getting to relive the life he had during that TV show reminds me how homesick I am of times in my own life that don’t exist any more.
nostalgia is a sharp and lingering pain
Honestly what is hardest about this isn't that it doesn't exist anymore, it's that it can't. I look back to spending time with my dad and now he won't even go on an all expenses paid trip to Miami completely for free... I just wish I had loved ones to care for, but everyone is gone now. Oh well, I only have a few more months left anywho
@xslonk kind of a double edged sword of joy and pain. Some times only joy others pain and sometimes both
"It's just best if they're unconscious."
That's the most Mythbusters thing I've heard in a while 😂😂😂
Bobby fingers might be one of the only person doing full blown art projects on RUclips that are still essentially connected to the medium of RUclips. Utterly brilliant.
His wit , his sarcasm, his brilliance, his art. He is the best channel on YT.
It's great seeing Adam colab with the Slomo guys. The Slowmo guys really feel like they have that Mythbusters DNA of genuine science mixed with "let's blow shit up." Kinda energy.
Good thing gav got away from RT before it imploded
Achievement Hunters shenanigans definitely influences Gavin in that direction
@@dariyanvalentine3564 Gavin was with Rooster Teeth literally until the end.
@@830toAwesome Been watching slow mo guys for years and only now did I find out Gavin was a part of RT. maybe because I've not watched RT
@@HesmiyuMC That would explain it. Tho how did you miss his shirts in every single video ahaha. Fun fact he made the channel in a desperate bid to qualify for a Visa to work at RT
1:51 I totally agree with you on that fact Adam. As soon as I heard you say that this feels like the show, immediately the opening narration began playing “On this episode of Mythbusters…”
I felt like I was a young teenager again watching a new episode of Mythbusters with my grandfather.
Adam's immediate pivot to safety talk really got me. He's extemely experienced in this stuff, and its the veterans who have done something hundreds of times that can start to forget the minutiae, and when dealing with a potential bomb/cannon, you can't afford that when you dont have support to double check stuff. It was all on him and he took it deadly serious, and for that, I salute him. o7
07
I’m dying for Adam to go on safety third, and I always wondered why he’s apparently unhappy with Allen Pan’s mythbusters merch shenanigans because it seems like his kind of humor honestly.
I think I get it now. Maybe he really dislikes those guys for how reckless they are with dangerous stuff - which is kind of their whole brand
@@josephmarlin9827 I doubt he's unhappy, pretty sure it's the corporate. I don't think the cast has any say these days...
@@PrograError at least I can rest easy knowing that, either way, Adam has DEFINITELY seen the “I love bustin” shirts
Dan from the Slo Mo Guys has experience in explosives from service in the UK military, so he would also respect the danger, and he has also built air cannons for Slo MoGuys videos.
Adam Savage and The Slow Mo guys - at last!!
"We are all professionals."
*Gel duck hitting Fabio at 70mph*
Im like actually crying over this collab. 4 of my favorite people coming together for an amazing collab. Like i grew up watching mythbusters. Practically since birth, the show literally came out a year after i was born. Ive been watching the slowmo guys since the conception of the channel. I've been watching gavin since before slowmo guys, when he was first hired on at Rooster Teeth, when they had the tiny office and moslty just fucked around all day, and bobbyfingers was a massive inspiration for me throughout high school. This is a DREAM COLLAB for me.
It was for us too, honestly. Thank you for taking the time to let us know.
slow mo guys, adam savage and the energy of this video, my childhood brought together, its more than i could ever ask for in terms of nostalgia and entertainment (cus lets face it, everything is better in slowmo, so add adams energy into the mix and its perfection) and with this collab i have found another youtuber who i get the feeling i will enjoy too
I cant believe this, as Patron of Bobby seeing him with slowmoguys who I've been watching since the very beginning and Adam Savage who is a huge part of why I studied a masters in physics (and built some questionably dangerous DIY special effects projects at university...) I feel like this is my birthday
13:11 "I recommend you pause it, go watch bobby's first, then watch the rest..."
a little late for that 😂😂😂
always did everything backwards anyways
Watched Slomoguys first, think "I wanna see Adam's perspective" and watch that; get told to watch the last video in my list first, invent time travel to obey request.
The collab we always wanted.
And one we want soooo much more of.
Us too!
There’s something so happy making about hearing Adam shout, “3! 2! 1!” and then unleashing some contraption in a dry lake bed while slow motion shots are being filmed… this just needed Robert Lee’s narration going on to make it perfect, someone please get in touch with him and see how much we have to pay him to do that.
And a blueprint in the beginning.
For sure! Best idea yet
I love that Adam had the knowledge and experience to truly appreciate every aspect that went into this collab.
plus seeing everyone geeking out over each other was one of those things that redeems humanity slightly
It's super cool to see Bobby getting noticed by bigger creators. The stuff he puts out is god damn mind blowing, always hoped the length of his content wouldn't keep him from breaking out.
I wish he put more videos out, but considering how big he swings on literally every video he makes, it’s totally understandable that they take a long time to complete
I showed his Segal video to a colleague recently and he was surprised he had only 140k subs considering the quality, that was even after the matt Parker colab which got me on to him. Hopefully he will get the reach he deserves from today.
Im pretty sure Bobby is a highly experienced and well respected guy in the film industry, he seems to have worked on a number of big projects and has access to a lot of resources and expensive gear. Good chance he knew Adam long before he started the youtube channel
@@TheLetterH111 oh he's got connections for sure, doesn't change the fact that his RUclips channel deserves more attention
@@G0rgar no doubt this project will bring him a lot more attention
Air cannon? Ballistic gel? High speed camera? I'm having serious deja vu right now.
The only thing missing is a ballistic shield and C4. The MythBusters stew is almost ready.
I've watched all 3 versions of the videos between @bobbyfingers, @theslowmoguys and your channel. Honestly, it was a lot of fun watching all of them but I think my favorite part was watching you (Adam) reminisce about the times at MythBusters (rather nostalgic). As you pointed out, you can do it all on your own, but it truly takes a team to make the real magic happen.
You geek out at them, they geek out at you, this is possibly one of the most wholesome and egalitarian colabs on RUclips.
I’m so glad you did it! Do more!
That’s something I wasn’t expecting to hear as I brushed my teeth, “ We’ll lube the bird up”. Have you ever snorted out toothpaste through your nose?😂
!
That sounds like it would burn.
@@SecularMentat it did. But now the whole day will smell minty fresh.
Just don't let fluorine conspiracy theorists hear that 😉
@@nonsequitor 😂
One of the best parts of the videos is three, possibly four, nerds questioning their own math simultaneously
I think Bobby has created the pinnacle of pure art on RUclips especially his Michael Jackson on fire diorama. It's twists and turns ending in a beautiful catharsis is a thing of wonder.
Seeing Adam be so happy and enthusiastic with the slo mo guys and Bobby made me just smile the whole time. Having been subscribed to the slo Mo guys since nearly the beginning AND having grown up with mythbusters it just brought me so much joy that I honestly felt like a teen again watching a new mythbusters episode!
"it's just best if they're unconscious"
One liners like that one remind me of the old days of Mythbusters.
"Knowing" Gavin all his career, I can't imagine how surreal it was for him to work with you Adam! It made me smile when you said they were a delight, my surreal moment will be if I ever get to meet or even work with him.
That opening was the most mythbusters-adam clip I've seen on this channel XD
2 englishman, an Irishman and an American walk into a quarry.
Ha!
This colab was really like watching a modern day Mythbusters episode and being able seeing it from three different perspectives was like I was there. Thank you.
Correction, it was Busch Gardens in Williamsburg Va. Apollo’s Chariot was the specific coaster and living in Williamsburg that incident is still infamous!! Having ridden the ride many times that conversation comes up all the time when in line for the ride. Haha.
I was just about to comment the same thing!
I was living there at the time, and BG is still one of my favorite theme parks.
Q 4
😊
Came here to say the same thing. Did your friends re-name the coaster "Fabio's Goose" too?
I was there that day it happened waiting in line to ride the same ride.
@@MargoEve "Alpengoose" for us.
any time you’re able to collaborate with Gav and Dan in the future would be such a true delight, much as this meeting was.
both of your penchants for sweet chaos and silly “oh! that was great, but what if we…?” moments are such a beautiful match for entertaining content.
even if you never collab with them again, a genuine thank you for saying yes to this one; it’s instantly special and a meeting of worlds for me, as I grew up watching MythBusters as a kid and young teen, and spent my teenage into young adult years watching Gavin on his various productions with SloMo and RT.
Cheers! 🍻
just tacking on to say I had never heard of Bobby before your and SloMoGuys’ videos today. what a fantastic way to be introduced to a phenomenally talented creator, this video is just filled with greatness!
I loved in the @theslowmoguys video they included the safety instruction you gave before firing the air cannon. You message about thinking how to do this safely reminded me of @smartereveryday doing a version of the bullet vs bullet you tested on MythBusters and the safety check list he had for not just safely shooting 2 guns at each other but also the saft while setting things up. To me showing the processes and features of a build that are needed for safty are more informative than just a "Don't try this at home" statement.
Best team up since Avengers!
Ha!
This HAVE to be a recurring thing, "new mythbusters" with Adam, Slow Mo Guys and Bobby!
I love when my favorite creators love my favorite creators. This collaboration is a lot of what made MythBusters great and it is also what continues to make for really awesome content. I would really enjoy more collaborative work with BobbyFingers and The SlowMo Guys
Best collab ever!! I don't know the slo mo guys so well but will definitely watch some of their work. Thanks Adam and Bobby especially!
man when bobby made that bezos boat i knew he was gonna blow up. glad he's getting this sort of exposure.
I love that Adam has the same or maybe even more excitement about this whole colab as the viewers xD this is so fun to watch!
Bobby Fingers is absolutely the best channel on RUclips!
I got a little emotional seeing Adam in this setting. Brought back memories of the old days.
A dude I used to work with was hit my falling "dead" canadian goose. It hit the lens of his shoulder camera and broke the viewfinder off with his face.. knocking him out. It was fantastic!
Not a lot of people know that Fabio once rescued a friend of his from a cult. What a guy! What a beautiful collab!
!!!!!!!
@@tested True story bro. The friend was a male model by the name of Hoyt Richards who now shares his experiences on RUclips with cult expert Jon Atack.
I'm just watching an old Mythbusters right now, complete with then-amazing slowmo footage, wondering (as I do when I watch MB lately) when the Slowmo Guys are going to collab with Adam. And today's the day I get to be really happy.
The collab we always wanted
So glad you finally got around to hanging out with the Slowmo Guys.
Man, I'm binge rewatching Mythbusters, I'm nearing the end of season 5. It feels so good seeing you doing stuff like this again and having so fun much doing it after seeing how much you loved it back then! I bet this was a nice break from the humdrum that you really needed. Love seeing this so much!
In Bobby's video when he revealed you were all working together, I actually shouted, 'NO WAY!'
Dream collab. Worlds collide.
I saw the Slow Mo guys vid first and I have no idea how I was unaware Bobby Fingers existed prior to this. Have been a fan of yours since the first and a fan of Slow Mo guys since their first and I gotta say, this is a helluva introduction to his channel. I haven't smiled this much in a long time. Seeing authentic enthusiasm, authentic creativity, authentic science, and authentic collaborative teamwork is balm for the soul. BRAVO ALL and thank you so very much. More please
My son was born just about the same time Mythbusters hit the air and I spent many an evening tending to him, and later my daughter, watching the show. Later we watched together every week. Now they’re in college, and this was like a nostalgia bomb going off.
Its hard to explain the nostalgia from hearing Adam yell 3 2 1 then some weird wild stuff happening. I wish I could go back and watch all of Mythbusters for the first time again.
That’s awesome! I’m so happy to see Mythbusters and Gavin from slowmo guys doing a collab!!!
Hearing the SlowMoGuys talk about Mythbusters and Adam, made me remember my childhood.
Thank you for doing this episode, two of my favourite things in the whole world did a collab and I am so happy.
So much Mythbusters in this video. Looking forward to watching all three channels versions.
Such delicious nostalgia ... can't believe it's been 21 since mythbuster's first aired
I really wasn't expecting to feel Adam's nostalgia for his days at Mythbusters. He's right, there's something so special about just getting to think of some silly problem and deal with it so thoroughly.
Who would have thought, this would be a perfect mythbusters revival team.
I'm glad that for this shoot they got Adam Savage, pneumatic bird launching expert.
Love that you brought back part of the MythBusters. I really enjoyed this video and hope that you can continue with something along the lines on your channel. Thanks, Adam.
I could watch a slow mo guys/ Adam collab weekly juss sayin. This brought me so much joy. This is so mythbusters I love it!
I think it's funny that the hairless Fabio silicone face looks just like Matt Parker from Numberphile. That shoot looked like it was an awesome time and I'm happy it brought some Mythbusters nostalgia for you!
One thing I love is RUclipsrs being big fans of each other and then getting together to make something awesome
Can I say that the very first shot of Adam in the quarry with a giant air cannon and a ballistic gel bird brought on a wave of nostalgia
Don't get me wrong, i love the normal vids of Adam building, modifying, fixing things, but seeing Adam back “in the field” with something that felt so much like a new Mythbusters episode made me so happy.
One of the rare times I hear the Slow Mo Guys curse, and it's on this channel. One of the rare times I hear Adam curse, and it's on their channel. I love it.
One of the more creative ways of flipping the bird to Fabio, I must say
Ngl if these guys all came together and made their own mythbusters episodes for youtube I would watch the hell out of that.
cant get much better than a colab with the Slow Mo Guys, Gav and Dan are the best
I freaking love you Adam, this brought me back to the Mythbusters, you were part of my childhood, so beautiful times snacking and watching them. From argentina to you this huge hug!
I've been rewatching Mythbusters again since they recently made their way onto RUclips.
Honestly it feels a little surreal jumping between the present and past like that, a few times a day.
Never thought I'd see Adam Savage team up with one half of The Rubberbandits but here we are...
Nice to see someone acknowledging the Rubberbandits, especially as someone from Limerick
A trifecta with Adam Savage, Slow Mo Guys, and Bobby Fingers.....it just can't get any better.
So much fun to watch and I'd love to see more collaborations with the Slow Mo Guys! All of you and high speed photography just sync up so well.
OMG the nostalgia! I didnt realize how much I actually miss the Mythbusters. I expected The Hyneman to show up every moment. The show still have relevance.
Adam nailing it on the first try...
Dan taught him well :)
It's been great to see Adam "back in action" with a Mythbusters style build. Don't get me wrong, all the other content you guys at Tested do is great, and I can't wait for more, but this is the sort of good stuff that made Adam Savage the legend he is.
The only thing missing from this was Robert Lee narrating. Haha
"The Tested Slow-Myth Fingerbuster Guys" at it again!
That sounds dirty.
I'd love to see more collaboration between Adam and the Slow Mo Guys. It's worlds colliding in a perfect way.
There's something incredibly touching about three groups of creatives all admiring each others work from a distance, and coming together just to end up working with each other like they've been friends for years.
Adam Savage, and all the cast and crew of Mythbusters inspired so many people to end up tinkering and creating, then recording it so it became "Science", and I love when that comes full circle and those creatives get to "wow" the Mythbusters the same way they would "wow" us.
The joy of Adam will always fascinated me
I have been waiting for your crossover with the Slo Mo Guys for YEARS! This was awesome!
"I know where everything is"
couldn't help but smile to that.
I think I speak for everyone when I say we would LOVE a series with you and The Slow Mo Guys!!
im SO glad all 3 channels have their own videos of this i love all of you guys so much
When 2 worlds collide. Been following Gav since the early days of Achievement Hunter and Adam from the beginning of Mythbusters. Never once thought I'd see both on the same screen.
The mutual respect of each others' craft is heartwarming to see. I'm so happy you guys got to do this and equally happy *we* got to see it too.
More Adam out in the wild please.
It’s really lovely when people working together have a mutual admiration and respect for each other and their work.
Real nice video! And a real nice tee too! 😉 11:45
just watched this over on the slo-mo guys channel! well done! and good fun! thank you for doing this! as a motorcyclist, even smaller things such as a Bee to the face hurts.. a stag beetle (1.5oz) will leave a permanent imprint, and i do NOT want to know what a goose to the face feels like! Cheers from Vancouver Canada!
How much of a fan Adam is of Bobby just made my year. Dude is under appreciated.
That intro made me gut laugh, thank you Adam 🤣
See this is why these collaborations are so amazing. Grew up watching mythbusters with my grandpa and went through my teenage years watching gavin screw around in games, on podcasts, and in slow motion. And now you guys have introduced me to Bobby Fingers, who im going to go check out now. I truly hope you guys make more things happen together, even if its some random video again, Adams engineer brain could come up with some awesome stuff to help with Gav and Dans demolition shoots or just something with guns or air compressors. And i would LOVE to see that old school mythbusters mentality of always ending it with the biggest possible bang!
Adam....OMG you were the responsible person of the group! This was just hysterical. Thank you so much! ❤
Bobby's is the most under-rated channel on RUclips, SO glad to see this collaboration with such natural pairings!
Awesome! Been hoping for this collaboration for years!
So stoked to see this colab, thanks for a great video!
