"Quick Silver saves dozens of fellow mutants from mansion"
It's in all the TV spots and trailers. -- KH
Haha didn't knew. btw loved the video
Saish Mirajkar he said barely any spoliers
he said major spoilers
Not as quick as Quickgold but quicker than Quickbronze.
Some say quickplatinum is ftl
*Quickdirt*
what about quickcarbon
Quickwood is the best choice for the morning Jog imo
@@pkhr9937 what about quickace
Actually, Quicksilver would be faster than noted here. Kyle's calculations assume sort of an empty square of space. In fact, he'd have to navigate hallways and stairs and stuff like that, so considering he isn't running straight through, he'd actually have to be even faster than calculated here.
And he was goofing around during the rescue...
Also, quicksilver can go superspeed while in superspeed, that alone prob tenfolds his time
People say that the Quicksliver in the movie had super speed, but to me, it seems like he had the ability to control time, not super speed. Although, granted slowing down time would make it look like he has super speed
@@MistikCo good point
@@MistikCo the closer something moves to the speed of light the slower everything around you moves
He out run an explosion. Minutes later he can't outrun Stryker's mutant ray.
because he didnt see it coming
+Kobil Shakur I made that same joke today on Instagram 😂
King A it wasnt a joke
He should be faster than the rays and could avoid it.
Haron Takes Five Well we don't know how fast that blast was moving
He went to a big mansion.
A building he has never been to.
He ate, drank, saved tons of students, and even played darts and set a safe landing for where he'll throw the kids onto. He even saved fishes.
This guy is insanely fast! And I love him for it.
There was an Avengers comic that focused on the different members and and their thoughts feelings in inner dialogs. Quicksilver was thinking how everyone feels he is arrogant and aloof to everyone, but in reality, his brain functions so quickly that normal humans are like snails crawling across the floor.
Quicksilver must have the passive power to transfer his power to those he comes in contact with for a short time so they don't turn into salsa with hair.
This scene made me think that perhaps speed is only a byproduct of QuickSilver's power. In other mutant families there seems to be a relation of powers, take the Cyclops and Havoc, they both shoot energy. Being Magneto's son perhaps QS's real power is the manipulation of a different field, one that allows him to have an isolated pocket of accelerated time? This would also allow for him to have it affect others perhaps to mitigate the damage they would receive from the drastic acceleration they would experience during his rescue, also if he is just moving fast how did he fall fast enough during his back-flip out the window to land before the explosion catches up to him since that is during a scene of slow motion wouldn't he have been moving faster then gravity itself would explain? Also that would allow for him to drink a pop at a rate faster then gravity would pour it into his mouth. He might not even realize his power is anything beyond being fast since that is most apparent effect. Just food for thought.
There's a fun tidbit of corroborating evidence in that scene too that I didn't mention. At the beginning of the scene you see a bee buzzing around, and when Quicksilver shows up, the wings slow down and stop. It's almost like the whole scene happened within one wing beat. And guess what you get if you multiply the average number of wing beats a bee makes by the time I assumed Quicksilver would have in the mansion? One. Just one! Probably a coincidence, but it was like a "Eureka" moment when I did the math. -- KH
you are awesome man
your the reason I suscribe
Actually, since the mansion is an actual building, Royal Roads University, you could potentially be able to get a floor plan of that building which would give you the layout of the mansion.
EDIT: But then again, it's from the first few xmen movies so it would be the layout of the mansion after it was rebuilt so never mind.
Trust me, I tried to find one, but the mansion and the ground in the film are actually a combination of multiple locations around the world. -- KH
with the backtracking youll never be able to narrow down the distance traveled anyway, even with an accurate floor plan.
it always gonna be a rough estimate
It was the plane that exploded
Was it? Oh dang you're right. Sorry about the mix-up -- made the episode before the movie was out. -- KH
Yes is was beast new plane engine
+Nerdist R.I.P Havok
+Nerdist. It
was a canister of some form of jet fuel that was hit and triggered a chain reaction and given how fast a jet fuel explosion travels and how a blast wave propagates and the distance covered and the wacky stuff he does you lowballed the speed. By studying the comics and other shots from the other X-Men movies you can figure a rough maze for the mansion and adding in data recorded by mythbusters and the U.S. government on the behavior of explosions their blast pressure waves and the fire that follows Quicksilver has to be perceiving the world and moving about 2 to 3 times what you calculated.
I agree. My estimations are very basic. But he would have to be traveling *at least* that fast. -- KH
Hey everyone! Thanks for all your comments and notes. I try to read and respond to every comment in the first 24 hours. Going forward, I will make sure to include both imperial and metric units (I usually do, just lasped this time) in every video. Thank you so much for watching. -- KH
thank you kyle!
I don't want to be a jerk, but when you said "Because Science" after using imperial with no comparison to metric a little part of me died.
I thought that the explosion was the jet exploding?
People crying over which measurement unit you use is silly and funny to me.
animeman1000 You must have never heard of the mars climate orbiter failure then.
It's not that imperial sucks (its awful conversion does suck tho), it's the fact that every civilised country of the world uses metric, yet the US refuses to.
Just saying, Quicksilver goes fast even when time is slow, so...
So he can move in super speed while in super speed
@@silsilahwationg8908just like everybody else we can increase of decrease our speed, his is just on another level
I used to wonder: If you move someones finger at that massive speed, wouldn't it just fall off due to the acceleration?
assuming we accept the magic binding forces in quicksilver but used normal forces for everyone else, the finger would... splash. Once an object starts traveling at hypervelocity (+5 mach or about +1500m/s) collisions with the object don't follow rigid or plastic deformation anymore. Instead they deform the same way that water would if you throw a rock at it. It splashes. No material, even metal, has enough strength to withstand an impact that fast. And impact is definitely the word I'd use to describe it. If the mansion scene were realistic, that building would be gorier than a Freddy Kruger movie.
"Hey guys, I saved you all!"
*drip* *drip* *drip*
"Uh-oh"
Havok : Less Important Than Goldfish.
and he'd have been able to pulverize apocalypse before jean grey had to do it. he was moving *WAAYYY* slower in that scene than in the mansion...
because the plot says so.
Im just thinking about how fast his reflexes must be
I'm gonna be honest. You're the only reason I'm subscribed to this channel.
I'll allow it. -- KH
lol me too
Same
Me too :-D
same
This makes me wonder if he has more of a Time dilation power. Where he, and what ever he touches, can enter a pocket of accelerated time. This would help with the whiplash problem, however, he'd have to be able to chose what speeds up or not because it shows him interact with objects that don't speed up. Still doesn't explain why the people he saves don't speed up with him but it would help explain how he can process that much information.
It's just how he can comprehend what's happening. If he wants to he can see it as normal speed for longer distances but he can also focus hard to slow things down I imagine. For the whiplash problem maybe speeders have a sort of shield that provides all sorts of things for them and protects them too
These mathematically improbable speeds always make me like to think that he actually distorts time. He slows everything down so incredibly slow that he appears as a fast boi
Ok, here's my theory: quicksilver has two powers, time perception and super speed. Both he can turn on and off at will, but one he can transfer to whatever he touches. He can share his super speed with who or whatever he wants but not the perception of that speed. This would account for the fact that everyone he moves doesn't turn to mush. But since he can't share his time perception, they have no way of reacting or even noticing when they are sharing speed. (Whiplaaaaaassssshhhhhh) This also makes it so he can listen to music while running and manipulate objects without them being destroyed.
You sir, are a genius.
you deserve an award my friend
He has control over time. It's his secondary power. he can slow time
I was about to comment pretty much the same thing. lol
Great minds think alike!
Yes but "sharing speed" still means increasing someone's velocity from nothing to many kilometers per second in faster than the blink of an eye. That's thousands of Gs, enough to mushify you. I don't have a better explanation, just saying. -- KH
Movie quicksilver is significantly faster than tv flash but still significantly slower than comic book flash. But they're all much faster than mcu Quicksilver who couldn't even dodge bullets.
I meant mcu quicksilver.
+Roy Harrigan you have a fair point. But remember when quicksilver was standing on the glass floor and he saw a bullet coming through the floor very slowly.
they didnt do any build up for quicksilver. the tv show flash is his origins onwards. meaning that he is just getting a handle on his speed and after going into the speed force he will only get faster knowing that alone. flash is one of the theoretical universe's most powerful characters. him being able to out run death aka time in the comics.
craziedzombie in the comics he is. Yet to reach that level in the show. So far every season someone is faster than him.
Actually, TV show Flash is a lot faster if you look at some of the scenes where time completely slows down for him, especially saving an entire train of people in the time it takes it to explode
Just before that Quicksilver scene in X-Men Apocalypse, there is a bee flying and we see how slow it is going. So you could assume with the speed of the bee regularly and compare it with how slow it goes when Quicksilver is there, you might be able to calculate the speed of Quicksilver at that time.
quicksilver is awesome!
Man I got here so early... I must be as fast as quicksilver!!!
Not as fast as flash though
Crazypotionx nah quicker
+Crazypotionx lol you avatar XD, we get it you like flash, but who cares quicksilver is more funny and has cooler name so I like quicksilver more.
PRO_GAMING23 Idk why but i find flash very annoying

holy crap are you writing backwards
+Derpy Popcornz no they edit it
Oh hey, is the Flash faster than this? I wish someone would comment about it. -- KH
in the TV show Flash is very, very underpowered and is presented as slower in comparison to the Quicksilver depicted in Xmen. I mainly think this is because of the budget they each have and is not to do with literal speed of each characters. If you get what I mean XD. - Bill
someone already covered this vs plus flash is faster then instant teleportation
Yes. The flash is 23 tredecillion times the speed of light. (10 to 42nd power)
Apparently , the CW Flash is only at mach 20 at max .
Flash is faster as he has no limit to his speed, and he gets his speed from the speed force, however quicksilver was born with a limited amount of speed
You are getting sooo much better at your delivery of lines and there is such a huge difference in just the last year of your uploads... Keep up the great work... I keep sending my students to your channel so we can discuss your theories... AWESOME job!
Thank you so much Patman! I agree, watching myself a year ago, there is a huge difference. I feel a lot more comfortable now, and I intentionally keep in flubs and slip-ups because I want to show that we are all just working through this stuff together. Please tell your students I said hi! -- KH
When u saw the title I was like "not as quick as flash"
Yep
Yea
....flash is faster than teleportation and that was from the other side of the universe, he can perceive events that last less than an attosecond which is like 10,000,000,000 faster than speed of light ... In the flash to show they don't show how fast he can really be but in the comics 😂quicksilver can only just break the sound barrier.
+Louis Arthur Tan in the Cw show he has only run faster than the speed of light a hand full of times but on average it seems hes slower. i know thats not the case but the show hasn't really shown his true potential
"only just"
Mach 118 is 118 times the speed of sound through air, that's a bit more than "only just" faster than the speed of sound.
Havok blowing up Cerebro is not the cause of the entire mansion exploding. It was Havok blowing up Beast's jet that caused the mansion to explode.
I remember when that scene happened in the movie. Everything just stops, and you start hearing music playing, and it just pans to Quicksilver. I was all giddy like, "omg they are doing it again". It was an awesome scene.
Flash is faster and yes some how he still have hard time fighting bad guy
nope
@@AmazingGamingsh nope what
The flash is only faster in the dc universe because the speed force exists, if they both had a race outside their universes quicksilver would destroy flash because the flash depends on the speed force to run fast
@@Metro._ yeah no shit but you have essentially taken away his super powers so that isn't a valid argument
@@CRydon200 so he's not faster he's just boosted from his universe so it's fair
I think Quicksilver doesn't move fast. I think he stretches the time around him. (The same with Flash.)
If he can pull any object into his time bubble for a short moment, he could interact with them without leaving a mess.
Otherwise there are too many physical inconsistencies.
The Flash violates physics with the Speed Force and that's how DC explains that stuff away.
+Titan Of Titans I thought the violation begins when he is "too fast".
+MetallicReg huh?
***** It is not about to explain how they work - more like how they should work, if they take place in an universe with comparable laws like ours.
Titan Of Titans I thought he violates the dimensions when he goes too fast.
I think that there is indeed super speed happening here. But, there must also be some type of time manipulation going on. Otherwise, these people are dead due to the crazy g-forces that they would be experiencing. Also, at one point Quicksilver is traveling downward while holding some mutants. He is going a little faster than gravity because he is in free fall. This guy is mastering time while he is moving really, really fast. He has the potential to be one of the most powerful mutants that has ever lived. Unfortunately, speedsters tend to be very in the now and not the thinking lot of heroes.
Manipulating Inertia and Gravity could work thou.....
After continuing the video and listening to you talk, I pray this channel never goes away.
It would be way faster as he covered that ground many times. In the movie he enters and then exits with students or a dog like 10 times before he finally just tosses everyone else out.
He for sure runs more than just 700 and some odd feet.... He goes out and back in and out again and again to save each person/pair of people. So you figure he has to go down to the x-men floor at least 5 times, and that's twice the normal length it takes him to get outside when he's grabbing all those kids.... Plus, there's like what, 30+ kids? Not counting their pets, which he also saves, and the stuff he has to set up to keep them from getting hurt or killed from him saving them. So even if he grabbed two kids at a time, that's still at least 20 times he has to go in and out of the mansion, and they are all pretty far away from whee the mansion used to be at the time of the explosions end. So he probably runs closer to 6,000+ feet really, if you figure the size of going in and out of just an average house to the area where the kids are when it's all over, which is like 150 feet one way. And that's being conservative given the size of the mansion and the fact that he's covering 3 different levels, one of which is not just at a normal basment level, but pretty far beneath the normal ground floor of the mansion. So maybe closer to like 7,500 feet or maybe even more, aka a mile and a half at the very least....
Can we just talk about how Kyle looks like Chris Hardwick and Tom Cruises conceptual love child? XD
THANK YOU for you answering this question about how lethal he must really be! I remember watching that scene in the movie and thinking all of those people he's moving must be dead after moving that quickly and stopping so abruptly.
This is my time wathcing one of your video and I gotta say, you are very enjoyable to watch. It's lovely to see a 'fever for science' attitude. Thanks
idgaf, fox's quicksilver is the best speedster in all comic/movieverses.
No, he's just the most entertaining. He's a CAREFULLY constructed amalgamation of traits that endear themselves to the types of viewers who see these movies, with EXTREMELY little depth, precisely so that an actual personality won't get in the viewer's way of enjoying him doing completely impossible things. Oh, and the actor playing him is considered very hot to most people. And even straight men would rather their male heroes be hot than not. Because then, when you imagine you're the character, YOU'RE hot. I mean, how many guys like pretending they're Swamp Thing compared to The Hulk? Sure, Hulk isn't "hot," but he's at least ruggedly handsome. Swamp Thing is... Swamp Thing. Ugh.
Kiha Akui nope, he’s cool
Neither Quicksilver or the Flash are actually speedsters. What they actually do is control their individual time dilation fields. This actually solves a lot of the physics paradoxes their powers would cause if they simply relied on speed.
That's probably now one of my favorite tackles to super speed. A time dilating/warping aura (speed force) would be needed to achieve it without the need of extra durablity to a character's body. As well as not destroying everything around him/her and being able to save people by extending that aura outward.
One be detail I've yet to see mentioned (mostly for flash relation) is gravitational effects. A common speed associating with flash is achieving light speed. Aside from note being able to see, gravity becomes non existent and getting traction becomes an issue at higher speeds.
Two things, First, it was Havoc shooting the blackbird exposed engine that caused the explosion not ceribro. Second, Beast said it was under the basket ball court, placing the source behind the mansion. Plugging in the correct position and adjusting for the second and third floors would give a more accurate number.
so... if Quicksilver ever had sex with a human female, he would most likely kill her. awesome.

I thought it was the jetplane that exploded after being hit my Harvoc's blast thing, not cerebro
Yep. My bad. Wrote the episode before the movie came out. Sorry about that, but an average detonation velocity should still account for this. -- KH
I don't think he actually seen the movie yet.

Christopher Omandam Yeah
i love this guy , i really do, i had this question for like months and now its cleared
I saw someone say he can change his atomic density which accounts for his time dilation and the fact he doesn’t create craters with every steps or sound booms. However, that doesn’t account for his clothes not being ripped off when he runs, his faster-than-gravity free fall, and how the ppl he threw out the window weren’t turned to mush. I think the most simplest answer is he has the power of time manipulation and with that power comes increased time perception. He wouldn’t need to push through time if he can slow it down all together.
Hi Kyle, just wanted to point out that back in X-Factor during Joe Quesada's (currently editor in chief) stint as the penciler, Pietro Maximoff aka Quicksilver and the rest of the team met with Doc Sampson for mental evaluations. During this event, Pietro reveals that the world around him is always moving slow, and that it drives him nuts. He compares it to a really slow employee at a coffee shop if my memory serves. So maybe not as cool an ability as you think.
you dont have to make assumptions. xavier mansion exist in real life (or i shuld say real life castle is use as mansion) its Hatley Castle, and its quite easy to find bliueprints of that castle. and by having that you can be more accurate with your calculations
I was waiting for this video :)
I love the comments at the end about registering the world

Thiccsilvers thicninis is 0ver 90000000000
Y’all so cringey. It’s not even funny because you need a hourglass figure to be ‘thicc’
Quicksilver actually slows time around him rather than going very very fast but if he did just run that fast cool
8bit-watcher he just perceives events so much faster than a normal human so it looks like he slows down time because it is from his POV
no, he has super speed not time control, he sees things in slow motion because of the speed he’s moving, the faster someone moves the more slow everyone else seems..whenever you are on a roller coaster or in a car and see a person, they look like they are standing still because of how fast you are going
these are old, but there are still amazing. i still watch them they are awesome
I would love that sort of thinking speed!!!
well if you go by the comics shadow cat colosis and iceman can effect others with there powers though touch so quicksilver must work the same way so when he touches them they dont feel the G forces
matt king don't mean jack as soon as he chucked the guys out the window they would have been done for. They where flaying after than the explosion.
no colossus cant pass or lend his power to another
SOMEONE needs to make him a Thor style lab coat. lil circles on the shoulders holding up a cape. and rename the show 'Thorsday: Because Science '

Hey man, great job on being one of the people in "How to Build... Everything" on the Science channel!!!
2:30. He has silver hair! XD
While quicksilver does move fast, people don't realize that his powers are two-fold: he moves pretty fast AND he slows down time in the universe. Thus rules of gravity and g-force remain in place but people aren't harmed by his interference because they themselves are slowed. Source: absolutely none.
Wouldn't he also need to be extremely hardy to run at those speeds without breaking his body?
He doesnt slow time is universe. He perceives the world moving slower as he is faster. Theory of relativity.
Orrrr he manipulates his own time bubble.
I wouldnt know, i dont read comics and comic book logic is annoyingly inconsistent anyway 🤷♂️

Check out the video by Gubz on the fastest live-action speedsters. He does this but goes more in depth. ruclips.net/video/T2lBsFbWe4w/видео.html
if you were my science teacher i won't get bored hahahahhahaha
i think that quicksilver has a time bubble . cuz the stuff that he touches moves at the speed in wich he is moving apearing to us as if its at normal speed but when it goas far from him it slows down immediately.so what i think is that quicksilver powers in these movies are the fact that he has a time bubble that keeps him and other ppl or objects within the bubble at normal speed whilst everything else is in slowmo and vice versa due to relativity ......or at least thats what i think
Then all the people he got out of the mansion wouldn't have still been frozen when he grabbed them.
thats a good point but you can see there hair and clothes move normaly when he is around them just like the dog
+Atom Power it's his perception of time that changes, it's not time itself.
thats what i tought at first then i examined the scene further . if you look close enough you can see that he is doing somethings defying the laws of physics ( the table flip scene ) if only his perception of time changes then he would be stuck in the air but in his case gravity acts on him as if he was falling at normal speed (not slowmo)
+Atom Power what?, his perception of time has nothing to do with physics, his perception of time does not slow him down, he would be falling at normal speed, it only affects what quicksilver sees.
Last time i came this early i had to pay child support
I get it.

Best episode ever! Now I understand how his power works....

just realized you have to write everything on the board backwards so we can read it hahaha

Actually he writes normally and the just flip the video in editing so it appears right way round. You can tell when he is wearing buttoned shirt and it flips from when Kyle is and isnt writing.
I cannot confirm or deny. -- KH
answer: not as quick as flash
Yep
Yea
no doubt
No, ok I just started a war :P
+PRO_GAMING23 no, just no
I Have read over the majority of the comments and conversations down below an wish to point out a few things some have over looked or not aware of. Both Quicksliver and The Flash have time-traveled forward and backwards in time. Both have saved several people at one time. Out ran exploration, even detonating planets. Made new time-lines, corrected old ones, and stop the some of the most powerful villain known galaxies. In this regard they are equally match in all fields and feats. However there is one big different. Thanks to one of Quicksliver side-powers he is not effected by the acceleration of time or moving at " The Infinity speed realm". As for Flash. He is effected by these factors an have died, blown-up, disappeared from existed, or trap between dimension because of this.
Hair goals. You're an inspiration, man!
yea if quicksilver would really move that fast 1 punch at max velocity would probably have knocked apocalypse into space...
but then the movie would have been over to fast.
or apocalypse would be nothing more then a bloodstain at that point.
Jonathan van dorsten one punch from quick silver and he'd be hitting the moon
Equal and opposite reaction. Most likely, he'd pulpify his arm before that happens. What he needs is a bunch of sticks to get up to full speed and then impale Good Ole 'Pocy with them. High impact, high penetration, plus most likely on fire from the friction.
Hey Kyle, help me out man..
How can Thor fly only with the help of momentum of his hammer?
I can't wrap my head around it...😓
Think of it this way: what would happen if you grabbed onto a speeding train? Technically you would slow it down a bit, but it has so much momentum that adding your mass to it barely changes its velocity. If the hammer can manipulate its own mass, then Thor could throw it when it's light, grab it when it's heavy, and get pulled along like he grabbed onto a train. -- KH
he weights like 250 pounds. he is strong enough to throw that hammer for miles. its not that far fetched to think he is strong enough to pull himself along with the hammer. it's like jumping for hulk but instead of legs it's a hammer.
+Nerdist So it's actually the manipulation of hammer's mass which allow him to do so..
Thanks for the reply!
Vaibhav Upadhyay I doubt thor has mass manipulation powers. It's like when quick silver tried to catch thors hammer. He just got pulled by it. Thor throws the hammer let's say with the power of taking 1 ton of weight behind it (think of it like a rocket) so the hammer can pick up anything under that weight for a distance.
I disagree. Mass manipulation allows for everything we see when people try to pick it up, as well as conservation of momentum-based flight. --KH
That speed was just to take into account saving 1 person. He saved multiple people
At 2:18 it is said that sirybrom is exploding but if you watch the movie scene Alex's laser beam is pointed at the leaving protagonists and then it shows them disappear but the laser continues throughout the door behind them and into the chamber in which the modified Sr 71 blackbird is held. Also as the laser passes into the chamber it shows the laser hitting the engine which is what caused the explosion. Plus the chamber in which the blackbird is being held in looks encased in metal possibly allowing more time for quicksilver to grab everyone.
dude....
1) cerebro not sirybrom and apocalypse is the antagonist not protagonist
Staubfinger1806 😂 "sirybrom"
maybe Quicksilver moves at normal speed and just slows time.
magical sparrow shut up
magical sparrow enough with ur dumbass theories. Quicksilver is fast and you can't do anything about it.
I was actually basing the time manipulation theory on the fact that the song he's listening to is attached to him and playing at normal speed and everything around him is moving in slow motion
magical sparrow theory of relativity?
magical sparrow by that theory, anything that Quicksilver touches or touches him is introduced to the relativity bubble that he lives in, and moves at his relative speed.
A recent episode of The Flash did a similar thing, Barry ran up and touched Iris and started moving her at a speed where everything else was slowed down, and she was perfectly fine and was able to talk. If Quicksilver is able to do this, then people he touches and moves are relatively safe from the effect of G Forces
If all science teachers were like u I bet students will come to school even on sunday
Fun math involved.
The equations are probably lowballing Quicksilver's speed given that the audience really shouldn't have been under the impression at any given moment during that sequence that he was moving with any sense of urgency at all, despite how much distance and how many actions he performed during the estimated 6ms it would have taken for the explosion to decimate the mansion.
It's interesting that while Quicksilver made a point of holding Magneto's neck to keep him from getting whiplash during the prison break, that may have just been inserted for the sake of an additional bit of dialog and humor as the g-forces he would have to generate to accelerate as shown on screen would likely turn flesh and blood into red mist/jelly.
So either Quicksilver creates some sort of undetectable magic force field (magnetic field; ha.) that protects him and anyone in his immediate proximity from damage while he's using his super speed power, or Quicksilver's power is really manipulating space time itself though dilation, which is multiple magnitudes more powerful (and awesome) that simply being able to move really, really fast.
25 miles per second. Nowhere near light speed but good enough for our boy Quicksliver to do his thing. I can live with that
I just realized that Kyle has to write everything backwards
he doesnt its superimposed
Its flipped, you can see that in vids where he has a buttoned shirt
what if quicksilver has time ability
Your Videos Have Great Nerd Info
You could also argue that the mansion itself was absorbing some of the explosive force and delaying its spreading, thus allowing for more time. The basement level where the explosion started appeared reinforced, and since it wasn't a purpose-built explosive that went off, and since it was ruptured on the side facing Cerebro, the spread upward could have similarly been delayed.
I was disappointed with this video. There was so much more it could have went in to. plus the distance he travelled they used could be better. The explosion started when Quicksilver was out in the street, pretty far from the actual mansion. He did so many things in that scene they could have scienced for us. I love this series and was waiting for this topic in particular since i saw the movie. I expect better from one of my favorite science shows. SMH, I'm calling for a part 2. who's with me?
You forgot to take your OCD meds again.
>.>
No i took the 2 pills with 2 shots of 2 ounces of 2% percent milk shut
The fridge door twice and snapped twice while swallowing two times just like i always do thank you sir

HAhahahahaha! Such a great response.
That actually made me laugh out loud.
Thanks. Made my day. ^_^"
Everytime someone lols me i have count the hairs on my arm... Dammit!
Chris Waugh
I'm laughing partly because I have OCPD and my brother has OCD.
I know the struggles. Hahahahahaha.
Some of it it pretty ridiculous. May as well laugh at it. =D
You have a great sense of humour.
not quicker than Flash
Yep
Yea
+Calin Nita no, just no
+huahwi v2 yea finally someone with brain
+Calin Nita flash has the brain processing speed of 1 ato second Google it
And to clarify, what Kyle means by a Phantom Camera at the end is a Phantom Flex, it's a brand of high speed camera, it's the kind of cameras the slow mo guys use in there videos
I have a theory regarding Quicksilver's super power and to a lesser extent the super power of all the super speed comic characters. The theory is that their power is not actually super speed but instead the power to alter the rate at which they progress through time (Variable Temporal Progression)
The reason for this theory is that there are several things that have never even reasonable been explained away with characters such as quick silver and the flash. the top three I can think of are Speed of thought, Collateral damage, and Compression/Decompression issues.
So first Speed of Thought: Characters such as Quicksilver and the Flash seem to be able to process thoughts at a speed relative to their physical speed. as they increase in speed they are still able to process the information which their eyes see and such at a similar speed as when they are standing still and they are able to be suprised and able to understand the speech of other people and carry on conversations. However this means that the electrical signals in their brain have to be capable of exceeding the speed of light by huge orders of magnitude. And anyone that can process information at that speed would have near god like cognative abilities because in the time it takes a normal person to perform a mental calculation they would be able to do millions of those kinds of calculations.
Compression/Decompression: if your body accelerates to the speeds we commonly associate with characters such as the Flash or Quicksilver then you run into a problem with the density of air. The relative pressure of the air against that persons body and organs would increase thus making them subject to the laws of compression and decompression. This means that unless they hold their breath while they move at increased speed they are in for serious if not fatal complications due to the air in their blood compressing and decompressing.
Finally Collateral Damage: The air again is the culprit here as the act of moving through air displaces it. As such if you are moving at the speeds listed in this video you are generating a shockwave with higher destructive force then then the explosion your saving them from. because it is the shockwave of an explosion which kills more than debris or the ball of fire. So in the Mach 118 example the video gives anyone within 200 feet would have their eardrums violently ruptured, and have their brain, heart, liver, and all the other squishy bits reduced to the consistency of jello in a highspeed blender.
That was one of the reasons why I started thinking how they could get the same effect without all the consequences that were clearly being ignored.
If these characters are instead creating a tiny field around their bodies which makes them progress through time at a faster rate it fixes all of the problems. Their brain is no faster than normal the air around them experiences the same effect in close proximity to them so no kiloton shock waves as they move and because grabbing a person would give them limited exposure to that same field you could grab someone and move them at super speeds to safety without turning them into the meat equivallent of a bean bag chair.
But they still perceive things faster than normal as for quicksilver for example can go super super speed while in super speed.
The entire topic of this video is arbitrary. Anyone can save 20+ people from an explosion in less than .5 seconds when they're listening to Sweet Dreams.
The Flash was in an accident that turned him into speed itself. He is the force that creates speed. He's not running fast, he's turning into the speedforce. Quicksilver is a mutant that has mutated to perceive and react at faster times. His body further mutated to allow for acceleration faster then any normal human. So, please everyone stop comparing speedsters to The Flash. The Flash ran faster then instant teleportation. When someone breaks that record then they can compete with The Flash in a race. :3
It's getting really annoying.
sonic can compete with him
The record can be broken by just 1 measly writer that wants I little kick in qs abilities. And I believe quick silver has something like the seed force (not the same thing but similar) that allows him to not drag so much air that it would knock buildings down and just destroy anything he passes by with the air drag at Mach +120
MrDARKNESSXSMASH yes, I agree. The writers control their power. But The Flash is the only one mentioned so far that has the capability to run faster then instant teleportation. And he can also drag other people (I.e. Quicksilver) into his own speed dimension that would render Quicksilver as fast/slow as The Flash wants him to be. Also, The Flash can absorb kinetic energy from surrounding people, which is what allowed him to run faster then instant teleportation. So, with Quicksilver running beside The Flash, he can just absorb Quicksilvers released kinetic energy and run faster, easier. Yes, The Flash is OP.. But then again, speed is OP. :3
Also, Superman is not a speedster, his "speed" is just his normal running speed magnified by the suns power. If superman had The Flashes speed/kinetic absorption coupled with his solar power absorption, he could run faster then The Flash cause he could multiply the the amount of kinetic energy with solar energy. Lol. I over think a lot.
ikr the thing that i hate is the tv series makes him seem so much slower
I LOVED THIS EPISODE
You didn't consider the fact that he was blurry in the video
The Flash in the comics is so much faster but the CW Flash is slower than the comic Flash and Quicksilver is a little faster than the Flash but the comic Flash will smoke Quicksilver
"Smoke" is an understatement
The flash would only win in the dc universe because the speed force exists, if they had a race outside the dc universe quicksilver would destroy the flash because the flash depends on the speed force to run fast, and the speed force only exists in the dceu so in any other universe quicksilver would win because he doesn't depend on anything
@@Metro._ honestly you’re right but in order for quicksilver to be able to run as fast as he does without the speed force, he’d need to have extra resistant skin and control of inertia. without those things being related to his power then there would have to be some sort of speed force because if he were to run at those speeds his skin would tear apart from his body and the friction applied to his feet would make him catch fire
X-Men QuickSilver>>>MCU lame QuickSilver
Yes he's better but the other one wasn't that bad
Jeffrey Woods Still, doesn't matter which is more faithful, which if you actually read X-Men comics the guy who played Pietro didn't nail the character at all, so I don't know Wtf you talking about accurate, he ended up being boring with nothing to do, and dying by bullets, BULLETS
i have to agree with Howard here last time i checked super people don"t die buy bullets anymore.
MCU Quicksilver was a character the other was a plot device, and FOX QS is only good in small dosages not in an entire film unlike MCU Quicksilver I enjoyed him throughout.
This question is basically unanswerable some people put his speed at mach 8202.
There was an unreleased copy made by stan lee a while back that apparently he goes mach 457000
You're a gem Kyle ;)
Can quick silver time travel?
Xerobox Media In the comics, he has the ability to do that.
Yes but there are negative affects when he does
same as flash...no one cant go back in time change something and doesnt affect the reality
He once time travel for 12 days., but i think they removed that ability from him
Can fanboys just calm tf down yes DC overpowered the shit out of flash and marvel intelligently kept quicksilver weaker so he doesn't just one shot all the huge enemies like thanos with the infinity gauntlet I personally love the flash but often prefer quick silver due to him having an actual challenge he gets beat up and is fighting for his life while not having these powers to just run through time itself he has a skill cap and that's why I prefer marvel because they don't have overpowered characters they don't create loop holes like D.C for instance super man is fast insanely strong can't die or batman apparently with prep time he can beat anyone meaning between flash and batman who would win batman could prepare but flash can't die cause of the speed force it's a loop hole that ruins comics knowing they'd always win
Pappy Smurfy I agree it also makes the movies more intense and better like when quicksilver died in age of ultron if he didn’t have that power cap scarlet witch would have never gone into a complete rage and she would have never have become a next avenger because she would have never wanted to avenge her brother because he would have never died

2:30 Kyle.. never go full Storm!
I think the one thing you should know that would change this is that the explosion from Havoc and the Jet isn't from the centre of the mansion; it's underneath the basketball court in the backyard of the mansion. So this could add a few more seconds to the explosion, and minus a few from Quicksilver's speed.
Out of curiosity, is it possible to ONLY get "BECAUSE SCIENCE!" showing up in my subscriptions? I don't really care about the rest of what Nerdist produces, it's mostly fluff & filler to me.
Not at the moment. We are thinking about breaking it out into its own channel, but that's down the road. For now, you can subscribe to this playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLl4T6p7km9da1BKEAGzloOQqDVw3ZB7SF -- KH
Bummer. Oh well. It's not a big deal. I'll just keep clearing the dross out of the way.
there's a thing that the guys that love DC are gonna hate me for but Quiksilver is much faster than Flash because Flash is limited by the speed force and uicksilver is not and there has been instances where both Flash and Quicksilver (in theirs multiverses) met with a guy named time who runs fast and both DC and Marvel said that theirs Times are the same speed . Flash did see the time guy running but only as a blur nto a circle as slow guys, but Quicksilver raced time and was much faster than him so there's that
*not a circle
as i said hate everywhere
Screw biased D.C. Fans. I will literally love fox if they make quicksilver so fast that he is faster than the Flash. They make the movies so they can do whatever they want to him.
Flash was so fast he can time travel........
read the last few lines of the original comment please
Alex Summer's chest blast hit their Blackbird-ish X-Men jet, not Cerebro. However, Cerebro may have contributed to the explosion in the mansion. Also, Quicksilver realizes that he doesn't have time to goof around half-way through the scene if he is to save everyone so we see him being less immature and/or more innovative in his heroic "save the X-Students" scene. I still can't forget the moment he wrapped one student in his mattress and threw him out the window though, looked like fun.
I just noticed that you're mainly left handed. Also love your vids man. I learn a lot here
