"That has got to be a compression nightmare for UA-cam:
*UA-cam*: have some pixels
1 pixel actually
Set it to 4k and you'll have a higher bitrate, even if you're watching on a 1080p monitor.
@@0ia mine got much better apart from loading 3 seconds of video every 10 seconds
God I love having super fast internet and a decent screen. That was gorgeous!
@@TheKBrosTech Nice try! Whatever equipment you have is irrelevant when it comes to what bitrate UA-cam serves you!
Haha, as dan said “that has got to be a compression nightmare for UA-cam” my quality dropped to nothing lol
same
Absolute same.😂👌
I thought I was tripping lol had to put it on max quality
Did they decreased the quality intentionally?

Nice pfp dogge, your human is cute.
1:56 "That has gotta be a compression nightmare for UA-cam."
That's correct lol.
I'm only watching on 240p anyways lol😂
Can’t even see it on 1080p lol
@@p3chv0gel22 I tried 240p and it looks like boiling water instead. You're getting inaccurate picture mate. Upgrade to at least 1080p.
I'm super glad it was uploaded in 4K. Not because I have a 4K monitor, just so that it looks half decent on my 1080p screen after YT compression has had its way
@@ThunderboltMY the thing is, at any resolution above 360p, the Video will buffer for minutes, play a few seconds and buffer again. My internet connection is pretty slow (mostly less than 1mbit/sek down)
The moment I saw Dan laying under a drum with Gallium on it to hit it from underneath, I understood that they will never run out of ideas.
It's more like, they're learning what works with liquids and what doesn't, so they're professionals at thinking of ways to show off liquids in slow motion!!
Slomo guys: lets do this *upload*
UA-cam: * three heart attacks and a stroke *
Explain this for those who do not understand your whimsy.
28 stabwounds it’s slowmo
What?
@@mauricobian Lots of video that doesn't compress well, so youtube needs to send a LOT more data than usual to maintain video quality. min quality video probably takes as much bandwidth as 4k video usually does. So if anyone watches it at a high resolution, they are joking that it kills youtube's servers.
Fun fact: heart attack and stroke are the same thing but in different parts of the body.
You can't get a video from them without the iconic: "that's mental"
Gav's back garden is going to be a toxic wasteland in a few years.
I suspect "a few years" has already passed!

Autumn poor Meg.
All I was thinking about is the disclosures that the real estate agent will have to fill out. What a nightmare!
Could be worse, NileRed has an ongoing collection of all sorts of toxic wastes.
6:20 "It's shooting forward all these gubs, it's just creating little giblets." ... Wiser words never spoken.
I also love Dan's descriptive words hahaha
6:35 "Oh look at that like crem there."
From an earlier video: "Floopin"
Words never before spoken, probably.
"They are speaking the language of gods"
"it's shooting forwards all this gubbs, that's just... creating little gibletts"
expert commentary Dan hahaha
"can you imagine if you tried to simulate this with a computer?"
"challenge accepted" - wren from corridor, probably, at some point
Simulating that is one of the lighting edge cases Raytracing on GPUs would be really excellent at
@@ubermidget2 I did the liquid metal on the speaker as a raytraced simulation: ua-cam.com/video/fvfRLyH6MT8/v-deo.html
Yes, GPUs are excellent at this! Runs in real time with my FluidX3D software :D

"This is a compression nightmare"
As i literally get 1 pixel per inch
On a 1 inch screen
@@kz.irudimen I was watching in 1440p and I could still see the compression artifacting, so I tried my luck with my internet connection (Aussie internet) and it looked pretty glorious. The video buffer was barely keeping up, but it was glorious.
Bruh Moment
Jude IX lol ur just watching a color
I watched it on 144p
That was awesome. I know I am a bit late (3 years) to the party. Something that might look cool is to pour the Gallium down a very cold plate so see if it will freeze on the way down and leave some ripples as the flow stops.
Ooooh! I wonder if you could get it to look or even behave like lava…
You may be late but that is a FANTASTIC idea
3:45 Imagine if measuring cups had a designated part for pouring stuff. . .
Lol I see
Good call
I noticed that immediately. I think he needed two hands to control the tipping of the very heavy cup.
if he poured it through the part for pouring it would have been a smaller stream so they wouldn't have been able to get as much reflection as they wanted
It's always nice to get a new Slow Mo Guys.
And it’s cool having an original video
such a bs comment
These arent new Slow Mo Guys lol
Huh?

*"Look at how globby it is."*
Spoken like a true scientist.
Quantum Physicists: "What?!"
That’s the technical term.

You guys need to submit clips into an art museum what you guys really do is art
I would love to see more with liquid gallium. Go artistic! With the speaker and reflection, set up a reasonably neutral background then hit it with RGB or CMY lights and watch the rainbows.
Can you do a video with bullets hitting bullet proof glass?
No... They should raid area51 in slowmo

UA-cam hates guns now so probably not.
Next: Get a clear Dyson vacuum and visualize the vortex of dust
Ohhh, I like that idea!
@ThomasHaberkorn A vortex of Gallium..
ThomasHaberkorn another idea, go to a water park and film water slides
@@flarp555 not fast enough for slo mo
oh YES
I would love to see different genres of music on liquid metal or something similar - I imagine how beautiful classical music would look in a thick, coloured liquid on a speaker, or something like that
Of course the perfect type of music is heavy metal!
It's interesting how, during the speaker and drums sections, when the gallium shoots up like water, the droplets of them behave more like a solid than a liquid. You're not seeing them ripple in the air as they struggle to maintain their cohesive nature like water.

I don’t think you guys understand that you just made one of my dreams come true without even realizing it. I’ve always had a fascinating with how water moves in air and honestly metal in air is next level amazing.
This video makes me glad to be alive
"Compression nightmare for UA-cam" should have been the title.
1:55 "That has gotta be a compression nightmare for UA-cam."

Same here lol
had to turn it to 4k for a pleasurable experience
flxdg That wouldn’t help at all. The video is in 1080p.
@@skertygerty6524 Higher resolutions improve the bitrate and lower compression. I'm watching on a 1080p monitor but switching to 4k was noticeable
Simeon Zylinski How would you setting your own monitor to 4k, help UA-cams compression?
The SlowMoGuys: liquid mirror
UA-cam: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
This video gave my eyes pins and needles
Dan: This stuff destroys aluminum
Also Dan: Let me put this aluminum laptop relatively close to the gallium
I can assure you, that 'relatively' short distance is further than the aluminum destroying properties of gallium can operate across.
@@okaydetar821 yeah, but not further than it can splash^^
Gallium doesn't react with Aluminium Oxide, which forms a solid layer on Aluminium exposed to the air. Generally you need to either scratch or chemically remove the oxide layer to get the reaction initiated.
@@rubinbingham9547 exactly
@@johnuferbach9166 However, still further than it reasonably would splash under the conditions it was in, although I will concede, theoretically someone could cause it to splash that far.

@@DC-SA1 he said without compression
"Least watchable video we've ever made."
What are you on about, this is fascinating
They mean its hard to watch on youtube cuz of the compression, not that its boring
@@branimirgacina4 Set UA-cam to 4K, even if you don't have a 4K display, there is far less compression at 4K stream.
@@jtocool Not everyone has good internet
@@henritzspook or a PC ... Some use *gasp* PHONES
Nathan U but I still can’t compress it. Might be because I have an iPhone though. Either way, mobile might be the hardest to compress to.
The pouring shot at 4:00 has got to be one of the most beautiful shots I've ever seen. The focus is immaculate, the composition is perfect, the movement and the colors are amazing, and above all Gav did it in his first take without too much thinking about it. Simply astonishing!
Cooler than I was expecting
*Suggestions for The Slow Mo Guys*
- Pop a regular balloon under water
- Pop a water balloon with colour dye in it under water
or shoot a balloon with colour dye in it underwater
@@jettaeschroff6924 That would be tough considering the fact that a gun will not shoot straight under water
Pop a water balloon full of gallium?
The latter would be nice.
The first would be hard, as I doubt you can actually get a balloon full of air under water far enough, that it doesn't pop due to the large pressure difference.

im sad that they didnt play any heavy metal on those speakers
Bal hera Nice one!
Missed the perfect opportunity.
Google Google good thing I listen to heavy metal and not that negative music
I'm sad they didn't play megalovania
Badum tss!
Watching this on mobile (1080p) and I can confirm that the speaker experiment was indeed a compression nightmare
Purely amazing. Great job guys 👍🏼
Probably the best vid ive seen on this channel 👍🏻

Good one
omg lol
5:47 his pee is gold tho
what a mental image... Silver Surfer doubled over in gastrointestinal agony
I want to unread that
Looks like about half a litre, so about 3kg... that's roughly 1000$ of Gallium
Quick, pour it on a secondhand kick drum!
Mercury would have been cheaper
@@beeblaine539 and more dangerous
Not if you factor in sanitation or the drop in value on the house.
Just go visit Cody's Lab. He doesn't seem to care in the slightest about his proximity to mercury.
That was AMAZING! I love gallium!
I could watch their videos all day 😊 they are so compfortable
Fire Gallium out of a supersoaker against a sheet of Perspex and film it from the other side.
Obviously the whole internet also wants to see Gallium vs Aluminium: The ShowDown!

That already happens in slow mo but if you haven't seen it, you absolutely should. It's really bizarre.

Gav: "lets try a nice pour"
Dan: *starts pouring galium off the side of the jug*
ua-cam.com/video/7tprkPUZJP4/v-deo.html
3:47
Measuring glass: *has spout*
Dan: *doesn’t use spout*
Spout: _Am I a joke to you?_
I know you're just making a funny, but I think he had to hold it that way because of how heavy it was. if he tried to use that measuring cup normally he'd probably end up dropping it. And that stuff is expensive.
@@Jimera0 he could hold it the same way just at a different angle
@@Jimera0 I mean he uses the spout for the second pour so obviously they considered it a good idea
Old meme references are old.
The purpose of the spout in cooking is usually to have a very accurate pour. However, in this case, they wanted a really wide pour so they could get as much reflection as possible.
This is the coolest, MORE Gallium!
So hypnotic and satisfying to watch.
1:35 is a pretty great analogy to how Chernobyl happened :b

I love when these guys find something really original to make into a video. There's a lot of slo-mo channels out there now, but there's a reason the OG is still the best one.
Also best cameras
This is relaxing to watch
So uhh...
How long until we see Dan in a 6 ft. Balloon filled with gallium?
Patreon is going to have to show them some serious love for that to happen.
From the first Google result, an Amazon listing is selling 100g of gallium for $39.99 USD. The density of gallium is about 5.1g/cc and the approximate volume of a 6ft balloon is 113 cubic feet, or 3200 liters. This *very* roughly totals up to around 6 million USD for the amount of gallium alone.

I didn’t know what to watch to fully utilize my 4K TV until I started watching these videos, absolutely brilliant
Guys, if you want to pour vertically instead of slightly forward, poor in a funnel first ;)
hopefully not in one made out of aluminum
@@coles5908 would be interesting to see when the aluminium melts and there is just a ton of gallium flooding down xD
I don't know about you guys, but it really bothered me when he didn't use the pouring lip to pour out the gallium at 3:48...
I think it captures a bit more. Poured from the pouring lip you automatically know where it falls, more or less. This is about seeing what gallium does differently.
Think it might have been so they could get a wider pour too?
also if dan had held the measuring cup by the handle to pour like that, it probably wouldve broke from the weight
When I saw him do that, I got so triggered lol. But they ended up with good results so 🤷🏾♀️
you could see they already tried doing that by the marks on the mug, but for some reason decided this looked better. Dan went back to using the pouring lip in the second shot though
The 4k for this is amazing!
Some of your best footage.
Everybody gangsta till Gav pulls out the liquid mirror
You guys are so casual but so good at making these videos ♥
One of the best UA-cam channels
6:50 you can pause it at literally any frame in this shot and Gav's face is still funny.

You should put gallium in the spinning cup and film it like you did with the water
If gallium is heavier than water the blender might strip a gear and break idk tho
@@yourlocalcomrade maybe

Or maybe a rock skipping on gallium, if they want to use it again.
@@AmEndederSonne DAGH! You beat me to it.
well that was quite satisfying. Didn't think i would enjoy that as much as i did.
I watched all the terminator movies just yesterday, and I agree. The animation for the t1000 is on point and the gallium looks just like it, well done gents
Maybe go crazy and do a timelaps of galluim eating a piece of aluminium ”anti-slowmo guys” 😀
they're the slow mo guys not the fast mo guys
@@RaineyLX i know, hence.. "go crazy"
The melting/dissolving happens underneath the gallium though, I've watched a few videos and you cant actually see anything until you remove the gallium
Dude the droplets that get launched up solidify midair and rain down as spikes this is probably the best video on the channel
loved this
That's definitely so hypnotizing n so mesmerizing
