The first time I discovered this effect, I was a kid in the back of the car, at night on a lit road, and I could see the wheels of the other cars rolling backwards.
It hypnotized me.
It's still a cool effect.
That is not matching, that is your brain moving a little bit slower than the wheels.. if they matched, the wheels would not be moving at all.. young people are so dumb these days
You often see it when you turn off a fan, too. Moves "back then forth" before stopping... 😀
The track is a conveyor belt that accelerates the train, duh. How else do trains move?
Well steam.. chew chew and stuf :D
The oder way is when they fall of tracks on a bridge..
And..

Technically its still moving..
@@kamilbialo4549 oh man I forgot about that movie lol, Great Clip haha
I understand your video. At certain times, the movement of the railroad ties syncs up with the frame rate, and they appear to stand still. At other times, they appear to move forward. Pretty cool. I know it is frustrating when you want to show people things and they don't get it.
0:56 anybody else think that guy in the background sounds like moist critical
I first discovered this effect in the late 60's as a child, holding a small electric motor with a propeller in from of a black and white TV. It probably still works with color TVs too.
That might only happen with the old analog/cathode ray tube TVs and the way it projects the picture at a recurring rate. I'm not sure the new digital TVs with the newer software can do that. It should also work with an old Analog computer monitors, too. Always cool to see these videos on YT.
This is the best visual representation of what it feels like to ride in the back of a pickup truck with your eyes closed! :)
Fright and existential terror? I'd be afraid to hit a bump and go flying
@@NathanaelNewton Hahaha! That's part of the fun! I grew up in the 90s when you could still get away with that on backroads.
When you close your eyes and you're facing backwards, you feel like you're moving forwards. :)
Hahaha damn you! I've just awakened from a dream of hanging on for dear life inside the back of a pickup truck driving at highway speeds into a large storm created by BetterHelp.
That is really cool!! Especially where the tracks split.
Such great examples! The last one was really good! Great eye!
Thanks for watching glad you like it, I agree that last one looked really good :)
Correction needed for all UA-cam videos who say "frame rate matches the object speed". It's the shutter speed which is the cause not the frame rate.
you are incorrect, the shutter speed in this case effects how clear the video is, the frame rate effects whether or not the synchronization matches for the stroboscopic effect
See you all in eight years when this pops up randomly in your suggested feed.
yeah, the algorithm has been suggesting this all over the place lately, it's totally going viral 😲😍
Wow everything seems like in slowmo and reversing. This is so cool
I also see this with my own eyes. It really feels cool to see the tracks overtaking the train when in reality it's in fact the complete opposite. When I was a kid, I really thought it was some magic
I love stuff like this. 😍
It was my first time to ride that Saturday, it was epic i tell you.
0:40 I was focused on the tracks and when they split I was like "whoa.." for a moment
Hum jo chalne lage... Chalne lage hai ye raaste...
Really, so much people didn't know about this? Feels like I am at the museum tour for the second time and everyone around is like "Woah! Look at this! So cool!😀" while I am thinking "Eh, I arleady know this😕"
I felt the same way when I found out that most people don't know that you can hear lightning on an AM radio
The moment the effect starts working, 3 popups block the screen. Cool!
I changed their position, it should be better now, thanks for the feedback!
Those train tracks turned into a centipede
Plot twist: the rail way is actually faster than the train moving forward
So cool.. thanks for sharing with us this video 😊
*i dont get it, how is this cool? This looks normal to me, can someone explain?*
@@NathanaelNewton ohhhh is it coz the train tracks are kind of going forward?
this lead to the script of Tenet
I just finished watching that movie, unique and confusing but I would expect nothing less from Christopher Nolan, great movie LOL
I've never been on a train all my life, it must be fun
It is! This was the first time that I had been on an electric train and only the second train I've ever been on.
@@NathanaelNewton oh wow, so electric trains are faster obviously but idk why they still sound futuristic to me... Maybe cuz of the "electric"
Yeah I agree, I think it's the electric motor sound that seems futuristic.
Wait what..?
Is it like common for people to not have been on a train where you live?
Where I live I don't think there's anyone alive that's never been on a train o_o
In North America people use cars and buses.. infrastructure spending on things like trains has been severely lacking, there's no High-Speed Rail, and many many people have never been on a train
Building costs are expensive, but they're nothing compared to maintenance costs which always increase over time.
Damn those tracks are moving fast
Plot twist the train is doing the moon walk
Nice example of the stroboscopic effect.
This is always such a cool thing to do with cameras
Did you see the video of the fan blades? I think that one turned out really neat
Tracks going faster reminds me of phase velocity and group velocity
Thats really cool! What do the light peaks remind you of in this video?
ua-cam.com/video/MaJW2HvIZME/v-deo.html
I couldn't find anything strange
This is actually how trains move, the train stays still its the tracks that move
"Video is just a bunch of pictures" it seems I too can be a scientist :O
I don’t get it
Is this the same test with is the girl spin clockwise or counter-clockwise? 🤔
Oh, not again.
Now the train's gone again.
And the city is too far to walk to the end.
If you can decrease the shutter angle, it will remove some motion blur.
that is true, however this was shot using the automatic mode on my cell phone lol.. I'm hoping to film another version using my Canon 90d soon
This is simple....you just need to watch TENET.
🤭
Never heard of that movie, I just watched the trailer, and now I want to watch it LOL
Bloody I was waiting for another train
Bro great video
I saw this while riding the DC metro to the capitol
Now I'm wondering how it would look on a hi-speed bullet train as it goes through multiples of the speed needed to match the camera's shutter speed. (example: 40km/hr, 80km/hr, 160km/hr). Amazingly I think it'll look the same.
In some ways it would look rather similar, however it would get progressively blurrier as the shutter speed wouldn't be able to keep up. Also, you'd see some rolling shutter distortion the faster you go such as like this:
ua-cam.com/video/UchbJGZLq30/v-deo.html
News feed: Trains don't actually have working wheels, they just run on conveyors.
Wow I never noticed stuff like this
A.K.A. the wagon wheel effect.
Bruhhhh!! This is so cooool!!
those rails are way over the speed limit
Oh yeah, very cool effect!!
If this video was 60 fps it would have been different
Neat, thanks
I think you need to include something that should focus the viewers towards the tracks
Many have not noticed what was going on and disliked the video
Same thing happens when you look at some car rims when driving down the road, my parents always looked at me like I was retarded when I said that peoples wheels were spinning
Now this is something I wanna see.
thank you
Nolan's "Tenet" train
I WAS LIKE WHAT AM I LOOKING FOR IN THIS VIDEO?? #TrainTracks
why hasn't anybody invented a train where the tracks move instead of the train?
That’s cool.
Bruv, what's so satisfying? I don't see anything different mate
the rail is faster than the train
Train: Moves
Tracks: *I'm Speed*
Just wow
“Ah so that’s what it’s called”
Wow that's cool
Spinning wheel...spinning fan blade...Helicopter rotor....etc.....
all have this effect with naked eyes.
Not to mention Six million dollar man running also.
Me: everything is ok, what's going wrong.
After reading comments.
Me:
So this effect can also happen on track....☺☺☺☺
I don’t get it?
stroboscopic method is used to determine speed of rotor...
The funny thing your brain and eye still can clearly catch 1frame or more on milli second into frozen imaginary looks 😂😂😂😂
What I really can't stand is aircraft flying with the propeller stopped or moving extremely slowly. It never happened with older cameras and that's how it should be.
Sick AF 😎🥃cheers
What should I look at?
Well first I would suggest the the other comments where like a dozen other people have asked the same question, but yeah.. The sleepers between the rails
You're look at the sleepers between the rails, the ties that hold the rails down: As the train speeds up and slows down it looks like they're not moving and/or moving backwards as the camera frame rate synchronizes with their movement.
For real i dont see the effect
It might be easier to see on this version:
ua-cam.com/video/4Qp3twkWogE/v-deo.html
I couldn't either at first. I had to focus on the individual tracks to see it
I am dumb asf.. Can anybody explain my sh!t brain?
When the frame rate of the video synchronizes with the speed of the tracks, the stroboscopic effect causes the tracks to appear to be stationary or even move backwards, look at the sleepers, between the rails, the part that the rails sit on and watch the video again
1:25 thank you
Recorded horizontally:)
Satispaiying
Don't unlike the video watch tracks
I wonder if all the dislikes are people that didn't understand what to look at 😭
I looked at the tracks the whole time and just saw a normal train ride. Maybe its cause I ride a train every day but I didn't see anything special
The apparent motion of the sleepers make it look the tracks are moving backwards
@@scottyweimuller6152 same, looked normal to me :/
I thought for having speed match the cameras fps, it would appear as tho the track was motionless.. or in reverse in slow mo.. as it is when you have the same camera affect on running water, it appears to reverse
Video is poorly titled.
