Non-Newtonian Fluid in Slow Motion - The Slow Mo Guys
Hello there, you've just joined us
deep in the Amazon rainforest.
Sweaty.
Very hot.
We found some Sony speakers in their natural habitat.
Just lying around, which is why we came to the rainforest.
What are we doing today?
We've got some non-Newtonian food today.
We're gonna make some using corn starch we got.
Found this in the jungle over there.
Oh, it's getting bright, let me adjust the exposure.
You keep going.
And we also found a Sony hi-fi system.
We're gonna hook up the Sony speakers to it
and hopefully get that whole
non-Newtonian fluid effect.
There's the speaker.
Yeah, get at it.
Just pull the top, the whole top, there you go.
That is a weird feeling.
Isn't that weird?
Weird, you've done this before?
Yeah.
So after many years of filming
with either very bright lights or indirect sunlight,
I've learned that filming in slow-mo with the color white
is an absolute nightmare.
So now it's not.
It's red.
Oh, that looks better.
I have to mix this in really well.
Oh, that looks weird.
That good?
Yeah.
It's so weird.
It's not liquid at all.
Look, it feels like, oh, it's so strange.
That's me trying to put as much as I can in my hands.
It just locks up.
It's like, nope, I don't want to leave.
Oh man.
That's probably enough.
You reckon?
That might be too much actually.
Okay, so.
All right, ready?
Yeah.
Ready?
Go for it.
So weird, isn't it?
Yeah, it's really weird.
Like once you set it off, it's like, oh, there you go.
And then it just collapses back into liquid afterwards.
Yeah.
Well, thanks for watching that video.
Be sure to follow us on Twitter.
Take a gander at the t-shirts.
We've got three, it's about it really, subscribe.
My eyebrows are actually keeping the sweat out
of my eyes.
I think that is indeed the purpose of eyebrows.
Evolution.
Yeah.
All right, well, I'm going to get something for the fridge.
Yeah.
Play some Xbox or something.
Yeah.
So I'm finished Dead Rising.
