              Biggest Water Balloon Ever Popped In Slow Mo

              We all like seeing things in super slow motion right? Well I have just been turned on to “The Slow Mo Guys“. These guys have a Youtube channel totally dedicated to showing things happening in super slow motion and in this video they create and eventually pop the largest water balloon I have ever seen. This video is not informative in any way but it’s still fun to watch.

                If there was a Behind the Scene on this, it would have been nice to explain:
                Which Camera were they using
                What FPS
                Which software was used for editing and slow motion and how it was done :)

                Phantom Flex I believe… I’m more interested to know what type of alien material can withstand that type of pressure

                That was so close… they almost had a slow motion video of someone doing a front flip and fracturing his spine!

                I would like to see how much damage this would do when dropped on say a car.

                Phantom HD Gold 1000 fps at 1920 x 1080 ,1500 fps at 1280 x 720. They spared no expense for youtube videos apparently :)
